A
While established by Woodrow Wilson as a holiday in the United States in 1911，the practice of recognizing mothers on a specific day or time of year has spread to more than 40 countries.Here’s a look at the various traditions.
France
Mother’s Day in France only started in the 1950s.After World War Ⅰ，it was celebrated on the last Sunday in May，unless it conflicted with the Pentecost(五旬节)．If it did，mothers were celebrated on the first Sunday of June.Regardless of the day，a traditional gift is a flower-shaped cake.
Japan
Following WWⅠ，Mother’s Day in Japan gained some popularity，and it is now celebrated on the second Sunday of May.Gifts include red or pink carnations(康乃馨) as they symbolize sweetness and purity.Children will often draw pictures of their mothers and present them to mom in addition to preparing dishes that their mothers have taught them.
Sweden
Celebrated on the last Sunday in May，the day isn’t all that different from the U．S.version.There’s breakfast in bed and homemade cards and the like.One difference is that the Swedish Red Cross collects money by selling red plastic flowers.The money from the flowers goes to mothers and children in need.
Thailand
While all mothers are recognized during Mother’s Day in Thailand，the holiday is largely centered on Sirikit，the queen mother of Thailand.Mother’s Day is celebrated on her birthday，August 12，and public places and households are decorated with lights and pictures of Sirikit.Flowers like jasmine are popular gifts.
21．What do Japanese children usually do for their mothers on Mother’s Day
A．Buy pictures. B．Cook meals.
C．Grow flowers. D．Present cards.
22．Which country has a fixed date for Mother’s Day
A．France. B．Japan.
C．Thailand. D．Sweden.
23．What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text
A．To tell us how different countries celebrate Mother’s Day.
B．To protect traditions of Mother’s Day in different places.
C．To introduce the origin and development of Mother’s Day.
D．To call on us to show respect for our mother on Mother’s Day.

I had heard about VR(虚拟现实) being used in the classroom but didn’t think I’d ever try it.I actually got a VR headset(耳机) as a New Year present from my friend and started searching for apps online to see whether it could be useful in my classroom.I soon found a free app through Google Cardboard and knew I had a lesson!
To use VR in the classroom，you need two things: a smartphone that can download the app or video，and a headset.To find the actual videos we’d be watching，I searched through free VR apps like Orbulus，Trench Experience VR and Cardboard.I also found hundreds of videos on YouTube.The key is to find videos made with the 360 cameras.While they don’t give the kids a 3-D experience like the apps，they are still amazingly immersive(沉浸式虚拟现实的) when viewed through the headsets.
So far we’ve had three lessons.I first used the headsets with my seventh grade U．S.History class.The Trench app allows students to “walk” through a trench(战壕) during World War Ⅰ and learn about many of the tools used during that time.My second activity was working with the sixth grade Geography class.They used the headsets strictly as viewers to watch a 360 video taking them through a rocky landscape.My final activity was the most interesting one，according to the reactions(反应) of my eighth grade Civics students.I was able to find a White House 360 tour that was made a few years ago.
For the rest of this year，I plan to continue using apps and 360 videos in my classes.Next year I’m going to write to my boss asking for a 360 video camera so that I can begin to create my own VR field trips for the students.
24．When did the author get the idea of trying VR in her classroom
A．When she was searching for apps online.
B．After she received a VR headset as a gift.
C．When she was having a conversation with her friend.
D．After she heard about VR being used in the classroom.
25．What does the underlined word “they” in paragraph 2 refer to
A．The kids. B．The apps.
C．The videos. D．The headsets.
26．Which statement of the three VR lessons is true
A．Reactions of students in the Civics lesson are best.
B．Walking through a trench during World War Ⅰ scared the students.
C．Students experienced a rocky landscape in the U．S.History class.
D．A White House 360 tour made a few years ago was not suitable for watch.
27．What will the author do next year
A．Buy a 360 video camera.
B．Create 360 videos by herself.
C．Take her students on more field trips.
D．Try new teaching methods in her classes.
C
Is there a Chinese soccer team at the Qatar 2022 World Cup No.But one can’t miss Chinese elements(元素) in and around the stadiums in this desert state.One can take a nap in a “mobile hotel” built by Chinese engineers，drink water from ponds dug by Chinese engineers，charge one’s mobile phone with electricity produced at the photovoltaic(光电的) power stations built by Chinese companies，and take a bus made in China to move between hotels and stadiums.
Did we forget something Yes，even some stadiums are built by Chinese companies，while the souvenirs(纪念品) one can buy there，too，are made in China.
That’s how China has taken part in this World Cup and earlier events，and may do so in the upcoming ones too：by providing products and services to the athletes and audiences alike，thus impressing the world with its technology and products.
While “Made in China” has left its stamp on earlier soccer World Cups and other sports events，what makes the Qatar World Cup unique is the kind of technology China is providing.For example，the Stadium 974，built by Chinese companies，is the first movable and redeployable(可重构体系的) “green stadium”．It can recycle rainwater for future use and turn the garbage collected from the stadium into fertilizer(肥料)．Besides，China has built an 800 MW photovoltaic station that continually turns the rich sunshine in the Middle East into electricity for the stadium.
Another reason that has made it possible for Chinese firms to perform well in the World Cup is that China has achieved good economic growth despite a global economic slowdown.While the whole world suffers because of many factors，Chinese companies have largely continued to function normally.
28．What’s the function of the first two paragraphs
A．To lead in the topic of the text.
B．To give an overview of the text.
C．To arouse readers’ concern in the topic.
D．To summarize the main idea of the text.
29．What is special about China’s influence on the Qatar World Cup
A．The services offered are the best ever.
B．The products provided are of high quality.
C．The souvenirs are designed and made in China.
D．The technologies employed are environment-friendly.
30．What can the underlined phrase “has left its stamp on” in paragraph 4 be replaced by
A．Has been the symbol of.
B．Has become necessary for.
C．Has made contributions to.
D．Has left an impression on.
31．Which can be a suitable title for the text
A．Qatar：a Most Successful World Cup
B．You Can’t Miss “China Green” in Qatar
C．Another World Cup Without Team China
D．Qatar World Cup—“Made in China” Again
D
Schools in the US are huge consumers(消费者) of energy.According to ENERGY STAR，K-12 schools spend more than $6 billion every year on energy，far more than the amount spent on other resources，and at least 30 percent of this energy is used needlessly.
Realizing that，some schools are seeking measures to save energy in several ways，from low-cost changes，such as turning off lights in unused rooms，to large-scale projects，such as turning to green equipment.
As solar energy(太阳能) is becoming a money-saving choice for powering buildings，more schools are making the move toward the renewable energy and using solar panels(电池板) on their rooftops.According to an online solar marketplace EnergySage，schools have their strong points to use solar energy.They often have the kind of enough space，suitable locations that are perfect for setting up solar panels.
In September 2020，a non-profit Generation180 released its third edition of a study on solar use in US schools.The findings showed that more than 7,300，or 55 percent，of K-12 public and private schools used solar energy，and the number has increased by 81 percent since 2014.
They also described how solar schools were saving millions in energy bills，and provided several cases to show the increased savings achieved by solar-powered schools.For example，an Arkansas school used its every year’s energy savings of nearly $100,000 to increase its teachers’ salaries.
The Interstate Renewable Energy Council，which tracks the number of K-12 schools with solar equipment and helps schools go solar，says on its website that schools with solar setups have an opportunity to educate students about clean energy，and show them that they are doing something for students’ and the planet’s health and future.
Third-party ownership also makes funding for 79 percent of schools to use solar energy possible，meaning most of schools don’t have to spend large amounts of money but can get the benefits of solar energy.
32．How does the author lead in the topic of the text in the first paragraph
A．By raising a problem.
B．By giving an example.
C．By making a comparison.
D．By offering an evidence.
33．What is the advantage of using solar energy for the schools in the US
A．Free access to using solar energy.
B．Enough space to fix solar equipment.
C．Fund support from solar marketplace.
D．Being the largest consumers of the energy.
34．What effect does using solar energy have on the schools
A．Increasing their operating expense.
B．Threatening their teachers’ income.
C．Raising the students’ environmental awareness.
D．Reducing their total amount of energy consuming.
35.What is the attitude of the third-party ownership to schools’ using solar energy
A．Worried. B．Doubtful.
C．Cautious. D．Supportive.

Saving Seeds for Next Year’s Flower Garden
Just like vegetable seeds(种子)，you can save flower seeds from your garden this year to plant in the following year.
If you want the same kind of flower or plant for next year’s garden，collect only the seeds from plants marked as “heritage”． 36 Cross seeds with a mixture of two different parents will produce new plants，but they will only look like one of the parents.Therefore，you are taking a risk with planting cross seeds.
37 Wind or insects could bring pollen from one plant to another and accidentally create a mixture.You can avoid this by planting only the plant from which you plan to collect seeds.But if you like surprises，start experimenting! You could create a lovely new plant or flower!
Just like everything else in gardening，timing is important.Collect seeds on a dry，sunny day.Let the seeds grow and fall naturally.When their pods(荚) open，these plants could send their seeds up to 6 meters away.Once on the ground，it is difficult to collect them. 38
For plants like sunflowers，cut the head off the plant and drop it into a paper bag. 39 This will save your fingers!
You can place the seeds in a glass box that can be sealed(封上)．Then store them in a cool，dry area.Make sure to mark your glass box so you do not forget what they are. 40 But you should plant the new seeds the following year for best results.
A．Keep an eye on some flowers.
B．Give the bag a shake to help separate the seeds.
C．When stored with care，seeds are good for several years.
D．These kinds of plants will grow just like their parent plant.
E．In this case，add more seeds to the soil to make sure that some will grow.
F．Even if you expect plants to be the same as their parents，it is not certain.
G．Instead，tie a small bag for seed collection over the pod when it nearly opens.

第二节　(满分25分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The day was Thankful Thursday，our “chosen day” of service.It’s a weekly tradition that my two little girls and I began years ago.Thursday has become our day to go out in the world and make a positive contribution，however small it is.On this particular Thursday，we had no idea exactly what we were going to do，but we knew that something would present itself.
Driving along a busy Houston road，I prayed(祈祷) for guidance on our weekly Act of Kindness.Around the noon hour，my two little ones wasted no time in letting me know their hunger，chanting，“McDonald’s，McDonald’s，McDonald’s” as we drove along.And I began searching earnestly for the nearest McDonald’s.Suddenly I realized that at almost every crossroads I passed through there was a beggar.And then it hit me!
If my two little ones were hungry，then all these beggars must be hungry，too.Perfect! Our Act of Kindness had presented itself.We were going to buy lunch for the beggars.After finding a McDonald’s and ordering two Happy Meals for my girls，I ordered additional 15 lunches and we set out to deliver them.It was exciting.We would pull alongside a beggar，make a contribution，and tell him or her that we hoped things got better.Then we’d say，“Oh，by the way...here’s lunch.” And then we would head to the next crossroads.
It was the best way to give.There wasn’t enough time for us to introduce ourselves or explain what we were going to do，nor was there time for them to say anything back to us.The Act of Kindness was anonymous(匿名的) for each of us，and we loved what we saw in the rear view mirror(后视镜): a surprised and delighted person holding up his lunch bag and just looking at us as we drove off.It was wonderful!
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
We came to the end of our “route” where a small woman was standing，asking for change.
She just looked at me and said，“Oh honey，I’m not going to eat this lunch.This is my daughter’s favorite.”

M：Oh！You must mean the weekly fair.That’s what we call it.There are also hot food stands and street performances.
W：Yes，that’s it！Where can I find it
M：It’s on the other side of the city，Madam.You can take the subway，or take the No.10 bus.They’re both a block away.I just came from the bus stop.The next bus is in five minutes.

About four years ago，I moved to the city in hopes of finding a job as a photographer.I had been there for three months when I started to become very worried because I couldn’t find a job.The only money I was able to make was from selling my photographs on the streets.Being a photographer and selling photographs was what I wanted，but I needed a company to pay me to do it.I would have been happy to continue looking，but I was running out of money.Somehow，I managed to stay for two more months.I was able to make some extra money by helping a friend to collect glass for recycling，but it felt like borrowing money from him.One night，when I was feeling particularly sad，I received a phone call from a man asking about a picture I’d sold weeks ago.He wanted to know if I’d taken it myself.When I said yes，he invited me to his office.It turned out he worked for an advertising company and they wanted to hire me.

A
While established by Woodrow Wilson as a holiday in the United States in 1911，the practice of recognizing mothers on a specific day or time of year has spread to more than 40 countries.Here’s a look at the various traditions.
France
Mother’s Day in France only started in the 1950s.After World War Ⅰ，it was celebrated on the last Sunday in May，unless it conflicted with the Pentecost(五旬节)．If it did，mothers were celebrated on the first Sunday of June.Regardless of the day，a traditional gift is a flower-shaped cake.
Japan
Following WWⅠ，Mother’s Day in Japan gained some popularity，and it is now celebrated on the second Sunday of May.Gifts include red or pink carnations(康乃馨) as they symbolize sweetness and purity.Children will often draw pictures of their mothers and present them to mom in addition to preparing dishes that their mothers have taught them.
Sweden
Celebrated on the last Sunday in May，the day isn’t all that different from the U．S.version.There’s breakfast in bed and homemade cards and the like.One difference is that the Swedish Red Cross collects money by selling red plastic flowers.The money from the flowers goes to mothers and children in need.
Thailand
While all mothers are recognized during Mother’s Day in Thailand，the holiday is largely centered on Sirikit，the queen mother of Thailand.Mother’s Day is celebrated on her birthday，August 12，and public places and households are decorated with lights and pictures of Sirikit.Flowers like jasmine are popular gifts.

I had heard about VR(虚拟现实) being used in the classroom but didn’t think I’d ever try it.I actually got a VR headset(耳机) as a New Year present from my friend and started searching for apps online to see whether it could be useful in my classroom.I soon found a free app through Google Cardboard and knew I had a lesson!
To use VR in the classroom，you need two things: a smartphone that can download the app or video，and a headset.To find the actual videos we’d be watching，I searched through free VR apps like Orbulus，Trench Experience VR and Cardboard.I also found hundreds of videos on YouTube.The key is to find videos made with the 360 cameras.While they don’t give the kids a 3-D experience like the apps，they are still amazingly immersive(沉浸式虚拟现实的) when viewed through the headsets.
So far we’ve had three lessons.I first used the headsets with my seventh grade U．S.History class.The Trench app allows students to “walk” through a trench(战壕) during World War Ⅰ and learn about many of the tools used during that time.My second activity was working with the sixth grade Geography class.They used the headsets strictly as viewers to watch a 360 video taking them through a rocky landscape.My final activity was the most interesting one，according to the reactions(反应) of my eighth grade Civics students.I was able to find a White House 360 tour that was made a few years ago.
For the rest of this year，I plan to continue using apps and 360 videos in my classes.Next year I’m going to write to my boss asking for a 360 video camera so that I can begin to create my own VR field trips for the students.

Is there a Chinese soccer team at the Qatar 2022 World Cup No.But one can’t miss Chinese elements(元素) in and around the stadiums in this desert state.One can take a nap in a “mobile hotel” built by Chinese engineers，drink water from ponds dug by Chinese engineers，charge one’s mobile phone with electricity produced at the photovoltaic(光电的) power stations built by Chinese companies，and take a bus made in China to move between hotels and stadiums.
Did we forget something Yes，even some stadiums are built by Chinese companies，while the souvenirs(纪念品) one can buy there，too，are made in China.
That’s how China has taken part in this World Cup and earlier events，and may do so in the upcoming ones too：by providing products and services to the athletes and audiences alike，thus impressing the world with its technology and products.
While “Made in China” has left its stamp on earlier soccer World Cups and other sports events，what makes the Qatar World Cup unique is the kind of technology China is providing.For example，the Stadium 974，built by Chinese companies，is the first movable and redeployable(可重构体系的) “green stadium”．It can recycle rainwater for future use and turn the garbage collected from the stadium into fertilizer(肥料)．Besides，China has built an 800 MW photovoltaic station that continually turns the rich sunshine in the Middle East into electricity for the stadium.
Another reason that has made it possible for Chinese firms to perform well in the World Cup is that China has achieved good economic growth despite a global economic slowdown.While the whole world suffers because of many factors，Chinese companies have largely continued to function normally.

Schools in the US are huge consumers(消费者) of energy.According to ENERGY STAR，K-12 schools spend more than $6 billion every year on energy，far more than the amount spent on other resources，and at least 30 percent of this energy is used needlessly.
Realizing that，some schools are seeking measures to save energy in several ways，from low-cost changes，such as turning off lights in unused rooms，to large-scale projects，such as turning to green equipment.
As solar energy(太阳能) is becoming a money-saving choice for powering buildings，more schools are making the move toward the renewable energy and using solar panels(电池板) on their rooftops.According to an online solar marketplace EnergySage，schools have their strong points to use solar energy.They often have the kind of enough space，suitable locations that are perfect for setting up solar panels.
In September 2020，a non-profit Generation180 released its third edition of a study on solar use in US schools.The findings showed that more than 7,300，or 55 percent，of K-12 public and private schools used solar energy，and the number has increased by 81 percent since 2014.
They also described how solar schools were saving millions in energy bills，and provided several cases to show the increased savings achieved by solar-powered schools.For example，an Arkansas school used its every year’s energy savings of nearly $100,000 to increase its teachers’ salaries.
The Interstate Renewable Energy Council，which tracks the number of K-12 schools with solar equipment and helps schools go solar，says on its website that schools with solar setups have an opportunity to educate students about clean energy，and show them that they are doing something for students’ and the planet’s health and future.
Third-party ownership also makes funding for 79 percent of schools to use solar energy possible，meaning most of schools don’t have to spend large amounts of money but can get the benefits of solar energy.

Saving Seeds for Next Year’s Flower Garden
Just like vegetable seeds(种子)，you can save flower seeds from your garden this year to plant in the following year.
If you want the same kind of flower or plant for next year’s garden，collect only the seeds from plants marked as “heritage”． 36 Cross seeds with a mixture of two different parents will produce new plants，but they will only look like one of the parents.Therefore，you are taking a risk with planting cross seeds.
37 Wind or insects could bring pollen from one plant to another and accidentally create a mixture.You can avoid this by planting only the plant from which you plan to collect seeds.But if you like surprises，start experimenting! You could create a lovely new plant or flower!
Just like everything else in gardening，timing is important.Collect seeds on a dry，sunny day.Let the seeds grow and fall naturally.When their pods(荚) open，these plants could send their seeds up to 6 meters away.Once on the ground，it is difficult to collect them. 38
For plants like sunflowers，cut the head off the plant and drop it into a paper bag. 39 This will save your fingers!
You can place the seeds in a glass box that can be sealed(封上)．Then store them in a cool，dry area.Make sure to mark your glass box so you do not forget what they are. 40 But you should plant the new seeds the following year for best results.
A．Keep an eye on some flowers.
B．Give the bag a shake to help separate the seeds.
C．When stored with care，seeds are good for several years.
D．These kinds of plants will grow just like their parent plant.
E．In this case，add more seeds to the soil to make sure that some will grow.
F．Even if you expect plants to be the same as their parents，it is not certain.
G．Instead，tie a small bag for seed collection over the pod when it nearly opens.

解析　上文提到对于像向日葵这样的植物，剪下植株的头，把它扔进一个纸袋里；B选项“摇一摇袋子，帮助分离种子”承接上文，继续说明收集向日葵种子的方法同时呼应下文。故选B。
40．答案　C
解析　根据上文可知，本段主要是讲关于种子的储存的，故C选项“如果小心储存，种子可以保存好几年”符合语境，同时与下文构成转折。故选C。

Driving along a busy Houston road，I prayed(祈祷) for guidance on our weekly Act of Kindness.Around the noon hour，my two little ones wasted no time in letting me know their hunger，chanting，“McDonald’s，McDonald’s，McDonald’s” as we drove along.And I began searching earnestly for the nearest McDonald’s.Suddenly I realized that at almost every crossroads I passed through there was a beggar.And then it hit me!
If my two little ones were hungry，then all these beggars must be hungry，too.Perfect! Our Act of Kindness had presented itself.We were going to buy lunch for the beggars.After finding a McDonald’s and ordering two Happy Meals for my girls，I ordered additional 15 lunches and we set out to deliver them.It was exciting.We would pull alongside a beggar，make a contribution，and tell him or her that we hoped things got better.Then we’d say，“Oh，by the way...here’s lunch.” And then we would head to the next crossroads.
It was the best way to give.There wasn’t enough time for us to introduce ourselves or explain what we were going to do，nor was there time for them to say anything back to us.The Act of Kindness was anonymous(匿名的) for each of us，and we loved what we saw in the rear view mirror(后视镜): a surprised and delighted person holding up his lunch bag and just looking at us as we drove off.It was wonderful!

We came to the end of our “route” where a small woman was standing，asking for change.
She just looked at me and said，“Oh honey，I’m not going to eat this lunch.This is my daughter’s favorite.”

We came to the end of our “route” where a small woman was standing，asking for change.We handed her our final lunch bag，and then made a U-turn to head back home.Unfortunately，the light stopped us.I was confused and didn’t know quite how to behave.“No one has ever done anything like this for me before，” the woman said with gratitude.I replied，“Well，I’m glad that we were the first.”Feeling uneasy，and wanting to move the conversation along，I asked the woman to eat lunch before it was cold.
She just looked at me and said，“Oh honey，I’m not going to eat this lunch.This is my daughter’s favorite.” I was confused，and she continued to explain that her daughter，a little girl at home just likes McDonald’s，but she never bought it for lack of money.Luckily，tonight she was going to have McDonald’s! So many times I had questioned whether our Acts of Kindness were too small to really make any difference.Yet in that moment，I recognized the meaning of Mother Teresa’s words，“We cannot do great things—only small things with great love.”
