Photography has been my passion ever since I was old enough to pick up a camera, but today I want to share with you the 15 most treasured photos of mine, and I didn’t take any of them. There were no art directors, no stylists, no chance for re shoots, not even any regard for lighting. In fact, most of them were taken by random tourists.
My story begins when I was in New York City for a speaking engagement, and my wife took this picture of me holding my daughter on her first birthday. We’re on the corner of 57th and 5th. We happened to be back in New York exactly a year later, so we decided to take the same picture.
Approaching my daughter’s third birthday, my wife said, “Hey, why don’t you take Sabina back to New York and make it a father-daughter trip ” This is when we started asking passing tourists to take the picture.
You know, it’s remarkable how universal the gesture is of handing your camera to a total stranger. No one’s ever refused, and luckily no one’s ever runoff with our camera.
Back then, we had no idea how much this trip would change our lives. It’s really become sacred to us. This one was taken just weeks after 911, and I found myself trying to explain what had happened that day in ways a five-year-old could understand.
So, these photos are far more than a specific trip.They’re also ways for us to freeze time and reflect on our times and how we change from year to year, and not just physically, but in every way. Because while we take the same photo, our views change, and she reaches new milestones, and I get to see life through her eyes, and how she interacts with and sees everything. This very focused time we get to spend together is something we treasure and expect the entire year. One of the most important things we all make is memories.
So, I want to share the idea of taking an active role in consciously creating memories. I want to encourage everyone today to get in the shot, and don’t hesitate to go up to someone and ask, “Will you take our picture Thank you.”
4. What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To encourage us to take photos.
B. To inform us of the author’s life.
C. To introduce the topic of the passage.
D. To tell us the skills of photography.
5. Why did the author’s wife suggest a father-daughter trip
A. Their daughter’s coming third birthday.
B. Their attending a speaking engagement.
C. Their asking passers-by to take photos.
D. Their appreciation for strangers’ help.
6. What does the underlined part probably mean
A. These photos were taken by strangers.
B. These photos carry valuable memories.
C. These photos show just a usual trip.
D. These photos were expensively taken.
7. What is the author’s attitude in the passage
A. Disapproving. B. Positive. C. Uncertain. D. Fearful.
C
There is a dangerous view in today’s society, and it is a restriction to happiness, success, and growth. The view states that human beings are inner fragile (内在脆弱) and that the only way to be happy and successful in life is to protect oneself by avoiding misfortune.
Not only are those statements false, but the actions we take believing them-to be “protective” also usually limit happiness and even stop personal and professional growth. Take sports as an example, seldom do those who play the game of life not to lose ever really win.
Rather than fear and try to avoid all misfortune, perhaps we should accept the misfortune and the occasional crises in life and prepare for them. As a muscle grows stronger with stress, so can people, teams, organizations, even communities. Crisis reveals true strength.
Sports psychologists Fletcher and Sarkar have studied Olympic gold medal winners. They conclude, “Indeed, most of the participants argued that if they had not experienced certain types of stressors at specific times, including highly demanding misfortunes, they would not have won their gold medals.”
Psychologists Richard Tedeschi and Lawrence Calhoun created the term “posttraumatic growth.” They describe it as the experience of positive change that occurs as a result of highly challenging life crises. It is shown in a variety of ways, including an increased appreciation for life in general, more meaningful interpersonal relationships, an increased sense of personal strength, changed priorities, and a richer existential and spiritual life.
The remarkable success stories that can arise after moments of great challenge and failure are countless. Thomas Edison failed thousands of times trying to create a light bulb filament (灯丝) that would light and burn in a consistent manner, but finally created the world’s first practical light bulb. Harland Sanders developed the brand Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) in his 60s while recovering from a failed career as a lawyer. There are thousands of other lesser-known people, whose lives are characterized by key moments of great recovery from difficulty. Let us understand that growth arises from challenge and even failure. The myth of fragility and overprotection keeps us all from realizing our full potential.
8. What does the “dangerous view” say about people
A. People are born shy. B. People are afraid of misfortune.
C People want wealth. D. People are often in need of help.
9. What is the author’s opinion about misfortune
A. It’s a must in life and the more, the better.
B. It mostly comes from our fragile inner heart.
C. It’s often met by world famous sports stars.
D. It should be treated with the right attitude.
10. What does the two psychologists’ term imply
A. A failed life is not worth living at all.
B. People need always lead a worriless life.
C. Positive changes will occur after crises.
D. Try not to express our opinions in public.
11. Why are the stories of Thomas Edison and Harland Sanders inspiring
A. They made great inventions. B. They got remarkable support.
C. They didn’t easily give up. D. They restricted their potential.
D
A spoonful of pickles (榨菜) can sometimes make a meal taste way better. Recently, a new type of pickle is being discussed: “digital pickled vegetables”. It refers to the videos which people watch while eating. And these videos will make their food more delicious.
The topic received more than 16 million clicks on Sina Weibo and about 100,000 people participated in the discussion. Instead of being accompanied by friends and family during a meal, many young people in China are kept company by TV shows or short videos. Many believe that their food is tastier with the “digital pickles”.
Can this habit affect your diet According to a research paper published in 2019, you may eat more unconsciously. The international research team asked 62 volunteers to follow different eating patterns on four different days. The patterns included eating while looking at the mobile phone, reading magazines and without distraction. After analyzing their diets, the team discovered that eating with a distraction increased caloric ingestion (卡路里摄入) by about 15 percent.
To explore the reason, the team also invited two groups of people:one group ate while listening to an audio clip about another person eating and the other listened to a clip that helped them imagine themselves eating. The results showed that the second group ate less since they were more focused on their meals. When eating with the “digital pickles”, our attention can be –distracted, which leads to eating more than expected.
This works not only for eating meals but other demanding tasks as well. A research project led by the University of Sussex, UK, pointed out that activities which require lots of attention tick many participants into overeating. The team invited 120 participants to do various tasks while providing them with drinks and snacks. “Our study suggests that if you’re eating or drinking while your attention is distracted by a highly engaging task, you’re less likely to be able to tell how full you feel,” one of the authors Martin Yeomans explained.
12. What are digital pickles according to the first paragraph
A. Vegetables which are made at home.
B. Videos that make people eat more.
C. Nice pickles young people prefer.
D. Audio clips that teach people to cook.
13. What does the second paragraph tell us about digital pickles
A. They are not accepted. B. They are being tested.
C. They are very popular. D. They are very delicious.
14. In which column of a magazine may we read this passage
A. Events. B. Technology. C. Food. D. Research.
15. What would be the best title for this passage
A. Learn to Cook Digital Pickles B. Pickles Ready to Sell
C. Digital Pickled “Vegetables” D. Pickles Nice to Eat

I strongly call on everyone to stop feed animals improperly in natural scenic areas. My family and he just went on a trip to the city park which there are beautiful lakes, streams and plants. Therefore, I found that many tourists fed the ducks, fish and other animals in the park with snacks they bring. In my an opinion, such behaviour will have a negative effect with both the animals and the environment.
Food made for human-beings may contain too many salt and fat, which can cause seriously health problems if animals eat too much. Also, food thrown into the lakes or left on the ground could regarded as pollutants and it will further destroy the living condition of animals.

Photography has been my passion ever since I was old enough to pick up a camera, but today I want to share with you the 15 most treasured photos of mine, and I didn’t take any of them. There were no art directors, no stylists, no chance for re shoots, not even any regard for lighting. In fact, most of them were taken by random tourists.
My story begins when I was in New York City for a speaking engagement, and my wife took this picture of me holding my daughter on her first birthday. We’re on the corner of 57th and 5th. We happened to be back in New York exactly a year later, so we decided to take the same picture.
Approaching my daughter’s third birthday, my wife said, “Hey, why don’t you take Sabina back to New York and make it a father-daughter trip ” This is when we started asking passing tourists to take the picture.
You know, it’s remarkable how universal the gesture is of handing your camera to a total stranger. No one’s ever refused, and luckily no one’s ever runoff with our camera.
Back then, we had no idea how much this trip would change our lives. It’s really become sacred to us. This one was taken just weeks after 911, and I found myself trying to explain what had happened that day in ways a five-year-old could understand.
So, these photos are far more than a specific trip.They’re also ways for us to freeze time and reflect on our times and how we change from year to year, and not just physically, but in every way. Because while we take the same photo, our views change, and she reaches new milestones, and I get to see life through her eyes, and how she interacts with and sees everything. This very focused time we get to spend together is something we treasure and expect the entire year. One of the most important things we all make is memories.
So, I want to share the idea of taking an active role in consciously creating memories. I want to encourage everyone today to get in the shot, and don’t hesitate to go up to someone and ask, “Will you take our picture Thank you.”
4. What is the purpose of the first paragraph

B. To inform us of the author’s life.
C. To introduce the topic of the passage.

There is a dangerous view in today’s society, and it is a restriction to happiness, success, and growth. The view states that human beings are inner fragile (内在脆弱) and that the only way to be happy and successful in life is to protect oneself by avoiding misfortune.
Not only are those statements false, but the actions we take believing them-to be “protective” also usually limit happiness and even stop personal and professional growth. Take sports as an example, seldom do those who play the game of life not to lose ever really win.
Rather than fear and try to avoid all misfortune, perhaps we should accept the misfortune and the occasional crises in life and prepare for them. As a muscle grows stronger with stress, so can people, teams, organizations, even communities. Crisis reveals true strength.
Sports psychologists Fletcher and Sarkar have studied Olympic gold medal winners. They conclude, “Indeed, most of the participants argued that if they had not experienced certain types of stressors at specific times, including highly demanding misfortunes, they would not have won their gold medals.”
Psychologists Richard Tedeschi and Lawrence Calhoun created the term “posttraumatic growth.” They describe it as the experience of positive change that occurs as a result of highly challenging life crises. It is shown in a variety of ways including an increased appreciation for life in general, more meaningful interpersonal relationships, an increased sense of personal strength, changed priorities, and a richer existential and spiritual life.
The remarkable success stories that can arise after moments of great challenge and failure are countless. Thomas Edison failed thousands of times trying to create a light bulb filament (灯丝) that would light and burn in a consistent manner, but finally created the world’s first practical light bulb. Harland Sanders developed the brand Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) in his 60s while recovering from a failed career as a lawyer. There are thousands of other lesser-known people, whose lives are characterized by key moments of great recovery from difficulty. Let us understand that growth arises from challenge and even failure. The myth of fragility and overprotection keeps us all from realizing our full potential.
8. What does the “dangerous view” say about people
A. People are born shy. B. People are afraid of misfortune.
C. People want wealth. D. People are often in need of help.
9. What is the author’s opinion about misfortune
A. It’s a must in life and the more, the better.
B. It mostly comes from our fragile inner heart.
C. It’s often met by world famous sports stars.
D It should be treated with the right attitude.
10. What does the two psychologists’ term imply
A. A failed life is not worth living at all.
B. People need always lead a worriless life.
C. Positive changes will occur after crises.
D. Try not to express our opinions in public.
11. Why are the stories of Thomas Edison and Harland Sanders inspiring
A. They made great inventions. B. They got remarkable support.
C. They didn’t easily give up. D. They restricted their potential.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. C
【解析】

细节理解题。根据第三段的第一句“Rather than fear and try to avoid all misfortune, perhaps we should accept the misfortune and the occasional crises in life and prepare for them.(与其害怕和试图避免所有的不幸,也许我们应该接受不幸和生活中偶尔出现的危机,并为此做好准备)”可知,作者认为应该以正确的态度对待生活中的不幸。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“Psychologists Richard Tedeschi and Lawrence Calhoun created the term ‘posttraumatic growth.’ They describe it as the experience of positive change that occurs as a result of highly challenging life crises. It is shown in a variety of ways, including an increased appreciation for life in general, more meaningful interpersonal relationships, an increased sense of personal strength, changed priorities, and a richer existential and spiritual life.(心理学家Richard Tedeschi和Lawrence Calhoun创造了‘创伤后成长’这个术语。他们将其描述为经历极具挑战性的生活危机后产生的积极变化。它以多种方式表现出来,包括对生活的普遍欣赏,更有意义的人际关系,个人力量感的增强,优先事项的改变,以及更丰富的存在和精神生活)”可知,“posttraumatic growth”一词暗示着危机过后会有积极的变化。故选C项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章的最后一段“The remarkable success stories that can arise after moments of great challenge and failure are countless. Thomas Edison failed thousands of times trying to create a light bulb filament (灯丝) that would light and burn in a consistent manner, but finally created the world’s first practical light bulb. Harland Sanders developed the brand Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) in his 60s while recovering from a failed career as a lawyer. There are thousands of other lesser-known people, whose lives are characterized by key moments of great recovery from difficulty. Let us understand that growth arises from challenge and even failure. The myth of fragility and overprotection keeps us all from realizing our full potential.(在经历了严峻挑战和重大失败之后获得显著成功的故事数不胜数。托马斯·爱迪生尝试发明一种能持续发光发亮的灯丝,他失败了数千次,但最终创造出了世界上第一个可用的白炽灯。哈兰德·桑德斯在60多岁时从失败的律师生涯中恢复过来,创立了标志性品牌肯德基。我们应当明白成长源于挑战甚至失败。错误地认为自己很脆弱、需要过度保护会使我们无法充分发挥自己的潜力)”推知,托马斯·爱迪生和哈兰德·桑德斯的故事鼓舞人心是因为他们没有轻易放弃。故选C项。

A spoonful of pickles (榨菜) can sometimes make a meal taste way better. Recently, a new type of pickle is being discussed: “digital pickled vegetables”. It refers to the videos which people watch while eating. And these videos will make their food more delicious.
The topic received more than 16 million clicks on Sina Weibo and about 100,000 people participated in the discussion. Instead of being accompanied by friends and family during a meal, many young people in China are kept company by TV shows or short videos. Many believe that their food is tastier with the “digital pickles”.
Can this habit affect your diet According to a research paper published in 2019, you may eat more unconsciously. The international research team asked 62 volunteers to follow different eating patterns on four different days. The patterns included eating while looking at the mobile phone, reading magazines and without distraction. After analyzing their diets, the team discovered that eating with a distraction increased caloric ingestion (卡路里摄入) by about 15 percent.
To explore the reason, the team also invited two groups of people:one group ate while listening to an audio clip about another person eating and the other listened to a clip that helped them imagine themselves eating. The results showed that the second group ate less since they were more focused on their meals. When eating with the “digital pickles”, our attention can be –distracted, which leads to eating more than expected.
This works not only for eating meals but other demanding tasks as well. A research project led by the University of Sussex, UK, pointed out that activities which require lots of attention tick many participants into overeating. The team invited 120 participants to do various tasks while providing them with drinks and snacks. “Our study suggests that if you’re eating or drinking while your attention is distracted by a highly engaging task, you’re less likely to be able to tell how full you feel,” one of the authors Martin Yeomans explained.
12. What are digital pickles according to the first paragraph
A. Vegetables which are made at home.
B. Videos that make people eat more.
C. Nice pickles young people prefer.
D. Audio clips that teach people to cook.
13. What does the second paragraph tell us about digital pickles
A. They are not accepted. B. They are being tested.
C. They are very popular. D. They are very delicious.
14. In which column of a magazine may we read this passage
A. Events. B. Technology. C. Food. D. Research.
15. What would be the best title for this passage
A. Learn to Cook Digital Pickles B. Pickles Ready to Sell
C. Digital Pickled “Vegetables” D. Pickles Nice to Eat
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. C

I strongly call on everyone to stop feed animals improperly in natural scenic areas. My family and he just went on a trip to the city park which there are beautiful lakes, streams and plants. Therefore, I found that many tourists fed the ducks, fish and other animals in the park with snacks they bring. In my an opinion, such behaviour will have a negative effect with both the animals and the environment.
Food made for human-beings may contain too many salt and fat, which can cause seriously health problems if animals eat too much. Also, food thrown into the lakes or left on the ground could regarded as pollutants and it will further destroy the living condition of animals.

2. he →I
3. which →where
4. Therefore →However
5. bring →brought
6. 删除my后的an
7. with →on
8. much →many

10. 在could后加be
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述的是作者在公园发现的不文明的行为而呼吁人们不要在公园给动物喂食。
【详解】1.考查非谓语动词。句意:我强烈呼吁大家停止在自然风景区不适当地喂养动物。分析句子可知,此处为stop doing sth.意为“停止做某事”符合句意,所以应使用动名词形式作宾语。故将feed改为feeding。
2.考查代词。句意:我和我的家人刚刚去城市公园旅行,那里有美丽的湖泊,小溪和植物。分析句子可知,此处为代词作主语,结合句意可知,此处指的是“我的家人和我”符合句意。故将he改为I。
3.考查定语从句。句意:我和我的家人刚刚去城市公园旅行,那里有美丽的湖泊,小溪和植物。分析句子可知,此处为定语从句修饰先行词city park,从句中不缺主语和宾语,所以使用关系副词,先行词表地点。故将which改为where。
4.考查副词。句意:然而,我发现许多游客用他们带来的零食来喂公园里的鸭子、鱼和其他动物。根据句意可知,“My family and he just went on a trip to the city park which there are beautiful lakes, streams and plants.”与“I found that many tourists fed the ducks, fish and other animals in the park with snacks they bring.”两句之间为转折关系,不是因果关系,所以应使用副词however,且位于句首,首字母需大写。故将Therefore改为However。
5.考查谓语动词。句意:然而,我发现许多游客用他们带来的零食来喂公园里的鸭子、鱼和其他动物。分析句子可知,此处为谓语动词,根据主句中的谓语动词found以及宾语从句中的谓语动词fed可知,此处应使用一般过去时态,且与句子主语they之间为主动关系。故填brought。
6.考查冠词。句意:在我看来,这种行为将对动物和环境都有负面影响。分析句子可知,此处应为固定短语in one’s opinion意为“在某人看来”,短语中无冠词。故删除my后的an。
7.考查介词。句意: 在我看来,这种行为将对动物和环境都有负面影响。分析句子可知,此处应为固定短语have a negative effect on意为“对……有负面影响”。故将with改为on。
8.考查形容词。句意:为人类制作的食物可能含有过多的盐和脂肪,如果动物吃太多,会导致严重的健康问题。分析句子可知,此处应为形容词作定语修饰名词salt and fat,salt and fat为不可数名词,表示“许多”应使用much修饰不可数名词。故将many改为much。
9.考查形容词。句意:为人类制作的食物可能含有过多的盐和脂肪,如果动物吃太多,会导致严重的健康问题。分析句子可知,此处应为形容词作定语修饰名词health problems。故将seriously改为serious。
10.考查被动语态。句意:此外,扔进湖里或留在地上的食物可以被视为污染物,它将进一步破坏动物的生存条件。分析句子可知,could后应为动词原形,且regard与主语food之间为被动关系,所以应使用被动语态。故在could后加be。

【答案】范文
Online Learning
Teachers nowadays often move their classes online under the negative influence of the Covid-19 pandemic, which is good for students’ and teachers’ health.
Online learning has many advantages. When the classes are broadcasting live, we are able to communicate immediately with teachers and classmates on the screen. There are also chances for us to ask questions and start group discussions with teachers’ guidance.
The disadvantages are also obvious. When the classes are in the form of videos, we have to face a cold screen, which is very dull. Even worse, students at home may do other things with the screens on.
In my opinion, we should concentrate on what we are learning, replay the videos and pause in time when we have doubts. Totally speaking, online learning should be made good use of, but self-management and teachers’ monitoring become quite important.
