Get up at 6 am, arrive at the hospital one hour earlier to help patients check in, and accompany patients during consultations… In recent years, “patient escorts” has emerged as a new industry, and those who have taken on this career are known as “people who sell time” . 26-year-old Zhang Tian is one of them.
September 4 was a lucky day for Zhang Tian. On this day, Zhang Tian saw a video about patient escorts on a short video platform. The daily routine of patient escorts shown in the video fascinated her and gradually inspired her to take this on as a business. She browsed through many platforms and read multiple information and found there indeed exists a certain demand for patient escorts, especially for the elderly, children, and pregnant women. Since she had never engaged in this kind of work before, she spent two days in major hospitals in Wuhan, in order to familiarize herself with all the departments on different floors, as well as the processes of medical consultation and preparation for surgery.
After preliminary preparatory (预备的) work, Zhang Tian posted a video of my self-introduction on major social platforms, talking about the help and services a patient escort provides, as well as some tips for a quick and convenient medical consultation. At first, she was a little worried that her video would go unnoticed. However, after she uploaded the video, it got over 100 likes and she received her first ever offer as a patient escort.

He wanted Zhang Tian to accompany his father through his consultation and treatment.” Zhang Tian made full preparations before meeting her first client and did a very good job despite her nervousness,.

Jude and Leo Hawes have come a long way since they entered the world, born at just 29weeks. Airlifted from their home in Launceston to hospital in Hobart, the twins, now happy and healthy two-year-olds, were delivered into the ICU to be cared for and monitored. A gift from the Tasmanian branch of Octopus for a Preemie (早产儿) for them was a light in the dark.
“These stories really do remind us why we all spend so much time and our own money making these octopuses (章鱼),”
Bianca, the co-founder of the project, tells Woman’s Day. “It means the world to me that I can do something in whatever
small way to make the journey for the babies and parents just that little bit easier. I believe if we can help others, no matter how small a way it is, then we should.”
The eight-legged creatures are specially created to calm and comfort early newborns.“In instances where the babies can’t be held for weeks, or even months, the familiarity of the parents’ scent (气味) on the octopuses can help with the bonding process because babies already know it as a safe scent when parents can finally hold them,”Bianca says.
The volunteer project began after a nurse reached out to Bianca to create a prototype of octopus she could take into hospital for a trial.
“It took me a good four to five months to teach myself how to write a pattern and get it approved,”explains Bianca, who creates the handmade helpful octopuses for no cost to families in need.
“I started making them as fast as I could, but I wasn’t able to make the amount they needed.” Soon Bianca met the group’s other co-founder Andrea Carey and the pair started creating the creatures in together in their spare time.
“I have always enjoyed being creative and my imagination runs wild with colour combinations,” says Bianca, her Facebook page Octopus for a Preemie Tasmania accumulating more than 2000 followers.“It makes my day!”
8 ．What is the purpose of the project
A ．To promote octopuses to preemies.
B ．To comfort the preemies’ parents.
C ．To reach out to nurses for preemies.
D ．To bring a sense of security for preemies.
9 ．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “prototype” In paragraph 4
A ．Certificate. B ．Model. C ．Patent. D ．Trademark.
10 ．What can we learn about the project from the last two paragraphs
A ．It is well received.
B ．It is highly profitable.
C ．It needs to be improved.
D ．It takes ages to see the results.
11 ．What does Bianca’s story imply
A ．Good is rewarded with good.
B ．Two heads are better than one.
C ．Small deeds make a difference.
D ．Actions speak louder than words.
Samir Lakhani’s enthusiasm for social work began when he studied environmental science at the University of
Pittsburgh. Required to complete an internship, he traveled to Cambodia to study the effects of climate change on
communities that had lived off the land for centuries.
While studying in Cambodia, he saw something he would never forget: a village woman bathing her newborn son with detergent. “It is a harsh and toxic alternative to the piece of soap that should never be used on the skin,” Lakhani remembered. “The baby was crying. I didn’t know what I could do, but as I returned to my hotel room and stepped into the bathroom, I realized that my housekeeper had thrown away the piece of soap I had hardly touched.”
That brief experience was a turning point for him and then he founded the nonprofit Eco-Soap Bank. “We shouldn’t live in a world where more than 2 million children die per year because of diseases that could easily be stopped by washing hands,” Lakhani stated.
Since 2014, Eco-Soap Bank has employed more than 150 economically disadvantaged women in ten developing countries to recycle leftover hotel soap. These women sanitize the soap and give the new product to people in need. “During the COVID- 19 pandemic period, hotel occupancy has dropped and hotels are closing, so we need to change our recycling form,” he says. Lakhani is now reaching out to soap producers from all over the world, asking them if they would like to give scraps to Eco-Soap Bank, a natural byproduct from the production line. He said, “On average, 10% of all soap is wasted before it even hits stores’ shelves. We have recycled and reproduced 1.5 million pieces of soap in the last two months, and this is all female-powered, because that’s our duty.”
However, during the pandemic, the way to transport the soap to where it is needed for people puzzles Lakhani. He is trying to solve this problem and needs more help.
12 ．What does Paragraph 2 talk about
A ．How Eco-Soap Bank works.
B ．How Cambodian people usually bathe.
C ．What made Lakhani establish Eco-Soap Bank.
D ．Why Lakhani chose Cambodia as the internship place.
13 ．How does Lakhani change the recycling form during the COVID- 19 pandemic period
A ．By asking for scraps from soap producers. B ．By paying out of his own pocket for soap.
C ．By producing soap with a production line. D ．By employing more women to recycle soap.
14 ．What might be a problem Lakhani is faced with now
A ．How to protect the soap during the transportation.
B ．How to get the soap to where it needs to be.
C ．When to send the soap to developing countries.
D ．How to give guidance on sanitizing the leftover soap.
15 ．Which words can best describe Samir Lakhani
A ．Traditional, awesome and warm-hearted. B ．Thoughtful, clever but unfriendly.
C ．Careful, knowledgeable and honest. D ．Kind, intelligent and responsible.
16 ．Which can be a suitable title for the text
A ．How Sanitized Soap Can be Used B ．How Hotel Soap Can be Recycled
C ．How Recycling Hotel Soap Can Save Lives D ．How Reproducing Soap Scraps Can Save Money
二、七选五
Confucius in Foreigners’ Eyes
I first met Confucius in a friend’s living room, nearly10 years ago. OK, ______ 17______.
It was a collection of his most famous lines, printed and bound and resting on a coffee table. As I scanned the pages, a vision of the man began to form in my mind.
It wasn’t until last Saturday, though, that I finally had a chance to put a name to the face-that of Hong Kong star Chow Yun-fat, who plays the sage in the new biopic Confucius.
_______ 18_______.
In the movie, we see a man who is all at once humble and wise and humorous and intelligent and disciplined and firm and clever.
Even when Zhou’s character all but throws herself on Confucius, ________ 19________.
If this is, indeed, the real man, meeting him would be, all at once, an incredibly exhilarating experience and also a very depressing one.
_________20_________. This is certainly a noble goal. Based upon my own experience, though, it is much easier said than done.
For example, I cannot imagine walking away from the temptress without the assistance of a supernatural power-no matter how many of the sage’s proverbs I had internalize.
In this sense, I am more in awe of Confucius than ever before. A person’s words take on far more significance when he or she actually lives them out.
If Confucius really was the man that Chow portrays, ________21________.
A ．In the movie, Confucius talks of changing oneself from within.
B ．he was indeed one for the ages.
C ．he must be a person beyond imagination.
D ．so it wasn’t really the bearded Chinese philosopher.
E ．thus, it wasn’t the philosopher I had pictured in my mind.
F ．the philosopher walks away with barely a trace of desire on his face.
G ．I went to see the film knowing very little of Confucius’ personal story.

Back in the day when I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do with my life, I was studying to become a firefighter. I was a volunteer fire aide in New York, and was studying at Mission College. As a firefighter, you should always think of other people and try to help other people.
One night after going to class, I was walking home and decided to stop off at a fast food restaurant. I lived in an apartment alone near my college so most of the time I used to get a take-out, I got my food and started to head home when a homeless man walked to me. He looked 20 or so. He was very dirty and obviously very hungry. He asked me for some change to buy a little food. As I was pulling some change out, I had an idea.
I decided to see if he wanted to eat a real dinner, so I asked him to follow me back into the restaurant to order food together. For someone who had been on the fringes(边缘) of society it seemed like he was very surprised at my generosity(慷慨). But to me, it was what any ”human being“ should do or at least offer. He was afraid to go into the restaurant because of shame. But I insisted. When he finally followed me and walked into the restaurant, the people behind the counter refused to let him in, but I told them that I was buying him dinner and he had a right to be there. After some arguments, they finally let him in and he sat down at the table. It seemed like he was relieved a bit to be sitting at a table, I asked him to order whatever he wanted. He only ordered a hamburg, so I had to encourage him to order whatever he
wanted.

piece of soap I had hardly touched.”(在柬埔寨学习期间，他看到了一些他永远不会忘记的事情：一个农村妇女
用洗涤剂给她刚出生的儿子洗澡。拉克哈尼回忆说：“它是肥皂的替代品，刺激性强，有毒，永远不应该用 在皮肤上。 ”婴儿在哭。我不知道我能做什么， 但当我回到酒店房间， 走进浴室时， 我意识到我的管家把我
几乎没碰过的那块肥皂扔掉了。 ”)”可知，第二段讲了Lakhani 建立生态肥皂银行的原因。故选 C。
13．细节理解题。根据第四段““During the COVID- 19 pandemic period, hotel occupancy has dropped and hotels are closing, so we need to change our recycling form,” he says.Lakhani is now reaching out to soap producers from all over the world, asking them if they would like to give scraps to Eco-Soap Bank, a natural byproduct from the production line.(他说： “在新冠肺炎大流行期间，酒店入住率下降，酒店正在关闭，所以我们需要改变我们 的回收形式。 ”拉克哈尼现在正在联系世界各地的肥皂生产商， 询问他们是否愿意把生产线上的天然副产品 ——肥皂废料——捐给生态肥皂银行。 )”可知，在 COVID- 19 大流行期间， Lakhani 在酒店收不到足够的肥 皂，通过向肥皂生产商索要肥皂残渣来改变回收形式。故选 A。
14．细节理解题。根据最后一段“However, during the pandemic, the way to transport the soap to where it is needed for people puzzles Lakhani. He is trying to solve this problem and needs more help.(然而， 在大流行期间， 如何将 肥皂运送到人们需要的地方让 Lakhani 感到困惑。他正在努力解决这个问题， 需要更多的帮助)”可知，Lakhani 现在面临的问题可能是如何把肥皂送到需要的地方。故选 B。
15．推理判断题。根据第一段“Samir Lakhani’s enthusiasm for social work began when he studied environmental science at the University of Pittsburgh.( Samir Lakhani 对社会工作的热情始于他在匹兹堡大学学习环境科学 时)”；第三段中“That brief experience was a turning point for him and then he founded the nonprofit Eco-Soap Bank.(这段短暂的经历对他来说是一个转折点， 然后他创立了非营利的生态肥皂银行)”以及倒数第二段中“We have recycled and reproduced 1.5 million pieces of soap in the last two months, and this is all female-powered, because that’s our duty.(在过去的两个月里，我们已经回收和再生产了 150 万块肥皂，这都是由女性推动的， 因为这是我们的责任)”可推知， Samir Lakhani 善良、聪明、有责任心。故选 D。
16．主旨大意题。根据第三段的“That brief experience was a turning point for him and then he founded the nonprofit Eco-Soap Bank.(这段短暂的经历对他来说是一个转折点， 然后他创立了非营利的生态肥皂银行。 )” 和第四段中“Since 2014, Eco-Soap Bank has employed more than 150 economically disadvantaged women in ten developing countries to recycle leftover hotel soap. These women sanitize the soap and give the new product to
people in need.(自2014 年以来， 生态肥皂银行已经在 10 个发展中国家雇用了 150 多名经济困难的妇女来回 收酒店剩余的肥皂。这些妇女给肥皂消毒，把新产品送给有需要的人)”结合文章主要说明了 Samir Lakhani 通过建立非营利组织，回收酒店肥皂来拯救生命。故 C 选项“回收酒店肥皂是如何拯救生命的”最符合文章 标题。故选 C。

The frustrated fox didn’t come up with an idea to get the grapes but to go away! And as he was walking away, he still comforted himself with that these grapes must be acid! It is very clear that he was looking for an excuse for his not being able to pick them.
After reading the fable, I realize that when we are wrong, we should not find an excuse, to cover up our own problems, instead we should bravely admit the mistakes and try to correct them. Only in this way might we succeed someday, otherwise, we may also become the sour grape fox.

一、阅读理解
Get up at 6 am, arrive at the hospital one hour earlier to help patients check in, and accompany patients during consultations… In recent years, “patient escorts” has emerged as a new industry, and those who have taken on this career are known as “people who sell time” . 26-year-old Zhang Tian is one of them.
September 4 was a lucky day for Zhang Tian. On this day, Zhang Tian saw a video about patient escorts on a short video platform. The daily routine of patient escorts shown in the video fascinated her and gradually inspired her to take this on as a business. She browsed through many platforms and read multiple information and found there indeed exists a certain demand for patient escorts, especially for the elderly, children, and pregnant women. Since she had never engaged in this kind of work before, she spent two days in major hospitals in Wuhan, in order to familiarize herself with all the departments on different floors, as well as the processes of medical consultation and preparation for surgery.
After preliminary preparatory (预备的) work, Zhang Tian posted a video of my self-introduction on major social platforms, talking about the help and services a patient escort provides, as well as some tips for a quick and convenient medical consultation. At first, she was a little worried that her video would go unnoticed. However, after she uploaded the video, it got over 100 likes and she received her first ever offer as a patient escort.

He wanted Zhang Tian to accompany his father through his consultation and treatment.” Zhang Tian made full preparations before meeting her first client and did a very good job despite her nervousness,.

Jude and Leo Hawes have come a long way since they entered the world, born at just 29weeks. Airlifted from their home in Launceston to hospital in Hobart, the twins, now happy and healthy two-year-olds, were delivered into the ICU to be cared for and monitored. A gift from the Tasmanian branch of Octopus for a Preemie (早产儿) for them was a light in the dark.
“These stories really do remind us why we all spend so much time and our own money making these octopuses (章鱼),”
Bianca, the co-founder of the project, tells Woman’s Day. “It means the world to me that I can do something in whatever
small way to make the journey for the babies and parents just that little bit easier. I believe if we can help others, no matter how small a way it is, then we should.”
The eight-legged creatures are specially created to calm and comfort early newborns.“In instances where the babies can’t be held for weeks, or even months, the familiarity of the parents’ scent (气味) on the octopuses can help with the bonding process because babies already know it as a safe scent when parents can finally hold them,”Bianca says.
The volunteer project began after a nurse reached out to Bianca to create a prototype of octopus she could take into hospital for a trial.
“It took me a good four to five months to teach myself how to write a pattern and get it approved,”explains Bianca, who creates the handmade helpful octopuses for no cost to families in need.
“I started making them as fast as I could, but I wasn’t able to make the amount they needed.” Soon Bianca met the group’s other co-founder Andrea Carey and the pair started creating the creatures in together in their spare time.
“I have always enjoyed being creative and my imagination runs wild with colour combinations,” says Bianca, her Facebook page Octopus for a Preemie Tasmania accumulating more than 2000 followers.“It makes my day!”
8 ．What is the purpose of the project
A ．To promote octopuses to preemies.
B ．To comfort the preemies’ parents.

Samir Lakhani’s enthusiasm for social work began when he studied environmental science at the University of
Pittsburgh. Required to complete an internship, he traveled to Cambodia to study the effects of climate change on
communities that had lived off the land for centuries.
While studying in Cambodia, he saw something he would never forget: a village woman bathing her newborn son with detergent. “It is a harsh and toxic alternative to the piece of soap that should never be used on the skin,” Lakhani remembered. “The baby was crying. I didn’t know what I could do, but as I returned to my hotel room and stepped into the bathroom, I realized that my housekeeper had thrown away the piece of soap I had hardly touched.”
That brief experience was a turning point for him and then he founded the nonprofit Eco-Soap Bank. “We shouldn’t live in a world where more than 2 million children die per year because of diseases that could easily be stopped by washing hands,” Lakhani stated.
Since 2014, Eco-Soap Bank has employed more than 150 economically disadvantaged women in ten developing countries to recycle leftover hotel soap. These women sanitize the soap and give the new product to people in need. “During the COVID- 19 pandemic period, hotel occupancy has dropped and hotels are closing, so we need to change our recycling form,” he says. Lakhani is now reaching out to soap producers from all over the world, asking them if they would like to give scraps to Eco-Soap Bank, a natural byproduct from the production line. He said, “On average, 10% of all soap is wasted before it even hits stores’ shelves. We have recycled and reproduced 1.5 million pieces of soap in the last two months, and this is all female-powered, because that’s our duty.”
However, during the pandemic, the way to transport the soap to where it is needed for people puzzles Lakhani. He is trying to solve this problem and needs more help.
12 ．What does Paragraph 2 talk about
A ．How Eco-Soap Bank works.
B ．How Cambodian people usually bathe.
C ．What made Lakhani establish Eco-Soap Bank.
D ．Why Lakhani chose Cambodia as the internship place.
13 ．How does Lakhani change the recycling form during the COVID- 19 pandemic period
A ．By asking for scraps from soap producers. B ．By paying out of his own pocket for soap.
C ．By producing soap with a production line. D ．By employing more women to recycle soap.
14 ．What might be a problem Lakhani is faced with now
A ．How to protect the soap during the transportation.
B ．How to get the soap to where it needs to be.
C ．When to send the soap to developing countries.
D ．How to give guidance on sanitizing the leftover soap.
15 ．Which words can best describe Samir Lakhani
A ．Traditional, awesome and warm-hearted. B ．Thoughtful, clever but unfriendly.
C ．Careful, knowledgeable and honest. D ．Kind, intelligent and responsible.
16 ．Which can be a suitable title for the text
A ．How Sanitized Soap Can be Used B ．How Hotel Soap Can be Recycled
C ．How Recycling Hotel Soap Can Save Lives D ．How Reproducing Soap Scraps Can Save Money
二、七选五
Confucius in Foreigners’ Eyes
I first met Confucius in a friend’s living room, nearly10 years ago. OK, ______ 17______.
It was a collection of his most famous lines, printed and bound and resting on a coffee table. As I scanned the pages, a vision of the man began to form in my mind.
It wasn’t until last Saturday, though, that I finally had a chance to put a name to the face-that of Hong Kong star Chow Yun-fat, who plays the sage in the new biopic Confucius.
_______ 18_______.
In the movie, we see a man who is all at once humble and wise and humorous and intelligent and disciplined and firm and clever.
Even when Zhou’s character all but throws herself on Confucius, ________ 19________.
If this is, indeed, the real man, meeting him would be, all at once, an incredibly exhilarating experience and also a very depressing one.
_________20_________. This is certainly a noble goal. Based upon my own experience, though, it is much easier said than done.
For example, I cannot imagine walking away from the temptress without the assistance of a supernatural power-no matter how many of the sage’s proverbs I had internalize.
In this sense, I am more in awe of Confucius than ever before. A person’s words take on far more significance when he or she actually lives them out.
If Confucius really was the man that Chow portrays, ________21________.
A ．In the movie, Confucius talks of changing oneself from within.
B ．he was indeed one for the ages.
C ．he must be a person beyond imagination.
D ．so it wasn’t really the bearded Chinese philosopher.
E ．thus, it wasn’t the philosopher I had pictured in my mind.
F ．the philosopher walks away with barely a trace of desire on his face.
G ．I went to see the film knowing very little of Confucius’ personal story.

Back in the day when I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do with my life, I was studying to become a firefighter. I was a volunteer fire aide in New York, and was studying at Mission College. As a firefighter, you should always think of other people and try to help other people.
One night after going to class, I was walking home and decided to stop off at a fast food restaurant. I lived in an apartment alone near my college so most of the time I used to get a take-out, I got my food and started to head home when a homeless man walked to me. He looked 20 or so. He was very dirty and obviously very hungry. He asked me for some change to buy a little food. As I was pulling some change out, I had an idea.
I decided to see if he wanted to eat a real dinner, so I asked him to follow me back into the restaurant to order food together. For someone who had been on the fringes(边缘) of society it seemed like he was very surprised at my generosity(慷慨). But to me, it was what any ”human being“ should do or at least offer. He was afraid to go into the restaurant because of shame. But I insisted. When he finally followed me and walked into the restaurant, the people behind the counter refused to let him in, but I told them that I was buying him dinner and he had a right to be there. After some arguments, they finally let him in and he sat down at the table. It seemed like he was relieved a bit to be sitting at a table, I asked him to order whatever he wanted. He only ordered a hamburg, so I had to encourage him to order whatever he
wanted.

47 ． Recently I read a small story from Aesop’s Fables, whose name is The Fox and The Grapes. What the story tells us is as follows:
On a hot summer day, there was an extremely hungry fox seeing a lot of grapes in the garden. He wanted very much to pick them down to eat, but he couldn’t pick them at all. The frustrated fox didn’t come up with an idea to get the grapes but to go away! And as he was walking away, he still comforted himself with that these grapes must be acid! It is very clear that he was looking for an excuse for his not being able to pick them.
After reading the fable, I realize that when we are wrong, we should not find an excuse, to cover up our own problems, instead we should bravely admit the mistakes and try to correct them. Only in this way might we succeed someday, otherwise, we may also become the sour grape fox.
