Great Activities for Nature Lovers
Hiking
One of these easiest and most accessible ways to get close to nature is by setting out on a good old-fashioned hike. Hiking generally doesn’t require any fancy equipment or special skills, just a piece of map and a thirst for adventure. This activity can be as relaxing as you make it.
Backcountry Camping
Why limit yourself to just a day hike when you can have a full weekend (or longer) adventure
Backcountry camping involves packing your tent, sleeping gear, food and water on your back to set up camp in a remote location. If you’re an experienced hiker and camper, this is an excellent way to test your survival skills and explore the wilderness.
Mountain and Road Biking
Unlike long hikes through the woods and camping, biking allows you to cover more ground and travel farther in nature. Mountain biking typically involves riding up and down steep slopes, between trees, and over rocks. If this sounds too intense or your tires aren’t suited for rugged terrain(崎岖的地带), consider taking a road bike on paved trails through forest preserves or along country road.
Gardening
Contrary to popular belief, you don’t have to travel beyond your own backyard to experience the beauty of nature every day. If your personality is less adventurous or your mobility restricted, consider planting a garden to grow your own vegetables, fruits, herbs, or flowers. There’s something really satisfying about mixing up a salad with fresh ingredients you grew yourself. One of the best parts about spending time in nature is that it doesn’t have to break your budget and anyone can do it.
1.What does hiking need for hikers
A.A compass. B.A strong desire.
C.Practical skills. D.Necessary equipment.
2.Where will you go to show your survival potential in the wild
A.To a backyard. B.To a forest.
C.To a distant place. D.To a mountain.
3.Which of the following can take you to travel farthest
A.Hiking. B.Backcountry Camping.
C.Gardening. D.Mountain and Road Biking.

Live with roommates Have friends and family around you Chances are that if you’re looking to live a more sustainable lifestyle, not everyone around you will be ready to jump on that bandwagon.
I experienced this when I started switching to a zero waste lifestyle five years ago, as I was living with my parents, and I continue to experience this with my husband, as he is not completely zero waste like me. I’ve learned a few things along the way though, which I hope you’ll find encouraging if you’re doing your best to figure out how you can make the change in a not-always-supportive household.
Zero waste was a radical lifestyle movement a few years back. I remember showing my parents a video of Bea Johnson, sharing how cool I thought it would be to buy groceries with jars, and have so little trash! A few days later, I came back with my first jars of zero waste groceries, and my dad commented on how silly it was for me to carry jars everywhere. It came off as a bit discouraging.
Yet as the months of reducing waste continued, I did what I could that was within my own reach. I had my own bedroom, so I worked on removing things I didn’t need. Since I had my own toiletries(洗漱用品), I was able to start personalising my routine to be more sustainable. I also offered to cook every so often, so I portioned out a bit of the cupboard for my own zero waste groceries. Perhaps your household won’t entirely make the switch, but you may have some control over your own personal spaces to make the changes you desire.
As you make your lifestyle changes, you may find yourself wanting to speak up for yourself if others comment on what you’re doing, which can turn itself into a whole household debate. If you have individuals who are not on board, your words probably won’t do much and can often leave you feeling more discouraged.
So here is my advice: Lead by action.
1.What do the underlined words “jump on that bandwagon” mean in the first paragraph
A.Share an apartment with you. B.Join you in what you’re doing.
C.Transform your way of living. D.Help you to make the decision.
2.What was the attitude of the author’s father toward buying groceries with jars
A.He disapproved of it. B.He was favorable to it.
C.He was tolerant of it. D.He didn’t care about it.
3.What can we infer about the author
A.She is quite good at cooking. B.She respects others’ privacy.
C.She enjoys being a housewife. D.She is a determined person.
4.What is the text mainly about
A.How to get on well with other family members.
B.How to have one’s own personal space at home.
C.How to live a zero waste lifestyle in a household.
D.How to control the budget when buying groceries.
C
On March 10, 2019, eight-year-old Tani defeated 73 young competitors to win the New York State Scholastic Chess Championship in his age group-kindergarten to third grade—with five wins and one draw. While the achievement is remarkable in itself, what is even more so is that the youngster, who was homeless at the time, began learning the game less than a year ago.
Tani and his family arrived in New York City from Nigeria in 2017, seeking religious protection. A church pastor(牧师) helped find the family of four space in a homeless shelter in Manhattan and, soon after, Tani entered the local elementary school. It was here that the young talent was first introduced to the basics of chess by a part-time teacher. Attracted by the game, then the seven-year-old begged his mother, Oluwatoyin, to allow him to join the school's chess club. The family were concerned that they would be unable to afford the fees and expenses, which added up to thousands of dollars due to travel and chess competition admission. Oluwatoyin emailed chess instructor Russell, who ran the club. To her surprise and delight, Russell agreed to waive all costs for young Tani. The rest, as they say, is history. The young boy, who has got seven prizes in less than a year, currently ranks 27 in America in his age group.
Though the chess club certainly helps, Tani's success can be largely owed to the efforts he has put into the game. The chess talent practices the game for several hours a day either on the floor with his board, or online, using his dad's laptop. Every Saturday, Tani and his mother head to Harlem for a free 3-hour class to help further sharpen his game skills.
Not surprisingly, Tani's incredible story, first reported by The New York Times, has resulted in an outpouring of support from the American public. Shortly after the young boy won the New York State Championship, Russell began a GoFundMe campaign for Tani and his family to "secure a home where he can continue with his journey".
And the heart-warming story gets even better! Since they now have a home, the family have decided to "pay it forward" and donate the over $200,000 collected on GoFundMe to African immigrants in America who are struggling the way the family was.
1.What made Tani's achievement especially remarkable
A. His young age. B. His quick learning.
C.Support from his family. D. Help from his teacher.
2.What does the underlined part "to waive all costs for young Tani" in Paragraph 2 mean
A.To pay for Tani's schooling. B.To raise money for Tani's family.
C. To teach Tani free of charge. D. To spend more on Tani's training.
3.What's Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. Success of Tani. B. Activities of the chess club.
C. Tani's devotion to the game. D. Public reaction to Tani's story.
4.What does the last paragraph tell us about the family
A.They are caring. B.They live in poverty.
C. They are honest. D.They are pitiful.
D
After years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance, curiosity and discontent. I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either. And I have never known an average man who had both. The two belong together.
Together, these deep human urges(驱策力) count for much more than ambition. Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of varying weights from the Leaning Tower at Pisa and timed their fall to the ground. Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, "Why Why Why "
Fortunately, curiosity and discontent don't have to be learned. We are born with them and need only recapture them.
"The great man," said Mencius (孟子), "is he who does not lose his child's heart." Yet most of us do lose it. We stop asking questions. We stop challenging custom. We just follow the crowd. And the crowd desires only the calm and restful average. It encourages us to occupy our own little corner, to avoid foolish leaps into the dark, to be satisfied.
Most of us meet new people, and new ideas, with hesitation. But once having met and liked them, we think how terrible it would have been, had we missed the chance. We will probably have to force ourselves to waken our curiosity and discontent and keep them awake.
How should you start Modestly, so as not to become discouraged. I think of one friend who couldn't arrange flowers to satisfy herself. She was curious about how the experts did it. Now she is one of the experts, writing books on flower arrangement.
One way to begin is to answer your own excuses. You haven't any special ability Most people don't; there are only a few geniuses. You haven't any time That's good, because it's always the people with no time who get things done. Harriet Stowe, mother of six, wrote parts of Uncle Tom's Cabin while cooking. You're too old Remember that Thomas Costain was 57 when he published his first novel, and that Grandma Moses showed her first pictures when she was 78.
However you start, remember there is no better time to start than right now, for you'll never be more alive than you are at this moment.
1.In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to ________.
A.propose a definition B.make a comparison C.reach a conclusion D.present an argument
2.What does the example of Galileo tell us
A.Trial and error leads to the finding of truth. B.Scientists tend to be curious and ambitious.
C.Creativity results from challenging authority. D.Greatness comes from a lasting desire to explore.
3.What can you do to recapture curiosity and discontent
A.Observe the unknown around you. B.Develop a questioning mind.
C.Lead a life of adventure. D.Follow the fashion.
4.What can we learn from Paragraphs 6 and 7
A.Gaining success helps you become an expert.
B.The genius tends to get things done creatively.
C.Lack of talent and time is no reason for taking no action.
D.You should remain modest when approaching perfection.

One of the easiest things in the world is to become a fault-finder. However, life can be great when you are not busy finding fault with it.
Several years ago I received a letter from seventeen-year-old Kerry, who described herself as a world-class fault-finder, almost always 1 by things. People were always doing things that annoyed her, and nothing was ever good enough. She was highly self-critical and also found fault with her friends. She became a really 2 person.
Unfortunately, it took a horrible accident to change her 3 . Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash. What made it almost impossible to deal with was that the day before the 4 , Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her 5 of boyfriends, the way she was living, the way she related to her mother, and various other things she felt she needed to 6 . It wasn't until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became 7 her habit of finding fault. Very quickly, she learned to appreciate life rather than to 8 everything so harshly(刻薄). She was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her life as well.
Perhaps most of us aren't as extreme at fault-finding, 9 when we're honest, we can be sharply 10 of the world. I'm not suggesting you 11 problems, or that you pretend things are 12 than they are, but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are— 13 most of the time, and especially when it's not a really big 14 .
Train yourself to "bite your tongue", and with a little 15 , you'll get really good at letting things go. And when you do, you'll get back your enthusiasm and love for life.
1.A. threatened B. interrupted C. bothered D. spoiled
2.A. caring B. boring C. interesting D. surprising
3.A. attitude B. plan C. measure D. explanation
4.A. occasion B. event C. accident D. adventure
5.A. memory B. notice C. evidence D. choice
6.A. hear B. contribute C. express D. admit
7.A. aware of B. afraid of C. curious about D. confused about
8.A. discuss B. realize C. judge D. settle
9.A. so B. or C. but D. for
10.A. proud B. sure C. hopeful D. critical
11.A. face B. create C. solve D. ignore
12.A. rarer B. better C. stranger D. worse
13.A. at least B. at last C. by far D. so far
14.A. task B. deal C. result D. duty

"I'm going to miss you so much, Poppy," said the tall, thin teenager. He bent down to hug his old friend goodbye. He stood up, hugged his parents, and smiled, trying not to let his emotions(情绪) get the better of him.
His parents were not quite able to keep theirs under control. They had driven their son several hours out of town to the university where he would soon be living and studying. It was time to say goodbye for now at least. The family hugged and smiled through misty eyes and then laughed.
The boy lifted the last bag onto his shoulder, and flashed a bright smile. "I guess this is it," he said. "I'll see you back home in a month, okay " His parents nodded, and they watched as he walked out of sight into the crowds of hundreds of students and parents. The boy's mother turned to the dog, "Okay, Poppy, time to go back home."
The house seemed quiet as a tomb without the boy living there. All that week, Poppy didn't seem interested in her dinner, her favorite toy, or even in her daily walk. Her owners were sad too, but they knew their son would be back to visit. Poppy didn't.
They offered the dog some of her favorite peanut butter treats. They even let her sit on the sofa, but the old girl just wasn't her usual cheerful self. Her owners started to get worried. "What should we do to cheer Poppy up " asked Dad. "We've tried everything."
"I have an idea, but it might be a little crazy," smiled Mom. "Without anybody left in the house but us, this place could use a bit of fun. Let's get a little dog for Poppy."
It didn't take long before they walked through the front door carrying a big box. Poppy welcomed them home as usual, but when she saw the box, she stopped. She put her nose on it. Her tail began wagging(摆动) ever so slowly, then faster as she caught the smell.
Paragraph 1:
Dad opened the box and a sweet little dog appeared.

A few weeks later, the boy arrived home from university.

⑦考查名词性从句。分析句子结构可知,⑦_______ has been raised through the detox是一个主语从句,且从句中缺少主语,故填连接代词what。
⑧考查词性转换。由设空处前的定冠词the和设空处后的of可知,设空处应填名词awareness,意为“意识”。
⑨考查介词。rely on/upon sth.依赖/依靠某物,故填on或upon。
⑩考查非谓语动词。it's time for sb. to do sth.意为“某人是时候做某事了”,故填to step。

第二节
答案：
Paragraph 1:
Dad opened the box and a sweet little dog appeared. Poppy was amazed. She wagged furiously. She barked with joy. She smiled, her tongue lolling out as she investigated the surprise. The little pup was not shy and immediately starting yipping and jumping around the older dog. "That didn't take long," remarked Mom, as both dogs went roaring around the house in an impromptu game of chase. Dad laughed.
Paragraph 2:
A few weeks later, the boy arrived home from university. He had missed Poppy and was looking forward to seeing her. When he bent down to give her a big hug, he fell over in surprise as a small golden cloud came racing up to lick his face, too. "Oh my gosh, who is this " he exclaimed. His parents laughed at the look of shock on his face. "That's Pee-wee," said Dad. "I can't believe you got yourselves a puppy!" "We didn't," replied Mom. "This puppy is for Poppy!"

Great Activities for Nature Lovers
Hiking
One of these easiest and most accessible ways to get close to nature is by setting out on a good old-fashioned hike. Hiking generally doesn’t require any fancy equipment or special skills, just a piece of map and a thirst for adventure. This activity can be as relaxing as you make it.
Backcountry Camping
Why limit yourself to just a day hike when you can have a full weekend (or longer) adventure
Backcountry camping involves packing your tent, sleeping gear, food and water on your back to set up camp in a remote location. If you’re an experienced hiker and camper, this is an excellent way to test your survival skills and explore the wilderness.
Mountain and Road Biking
Unlike long hikes through the woods and camping, biking allows you to cover more ground and travel farther in nature. Mountain biking typically involves riding up and down steep slopes, between trees, and over rocks. If this sounds too intense or your tires aren’t suited for rugged terrain(崎岖的地带), consider taking a road bike on paved trails through forest preserves or along country road.
Gardening
Contrary to popular belief, you don’t have to travel beyond your own backyard to experience the beauty of nature every day. If your personality is less adventurous or your mobility restricted, consider planting a garden to grow your own vegetables, fruits, herbs, or flowers. There’s something really satisfying about mixing up a salad with fresh ingredients you grew yourself. One of the best parts about spending time in nature is that it doesn’t have to break your budget and anyone can do it.
1.What does hiking need for hikers
A.A compass. B.A strong desire.
C.Practical skills. D.Necessary equipment.
2.Where will you go to show your survival potential in the wild
A.To a backyard. B.To a forest.
C.To a distant place. D.To a mountain.
3.Which of the following can take you to travel farthest
A.Hiking. B.Backcountry Camping.
C.Gardening. D.Mountain and Road Biking.
B
Live with roommates Have friends and family around you Chances are that if you’re looking to live a more sustainable lifestyle, not everyone around you will be ready to jump on that bandwagon.
I experienced this when I started switching to a zero waste lifestyle five years ago, as I was living with my parents, and I continue to experience this with my husband, as he is not completely zero waste like me. I’ve learned a few things along the way though, which I hope you’ll find encouraging if you’re doing your best to figure out how you can make the change in a not-always-supportive household.
Zero waste was a radical lifestyle movement a few years back. I remember showing my parents a video of Bea Johnson, sharing how cool I thought it would be to buy groceries with jars, and have so little trash! A few days later, I came back with my first jars of zero waste groceries, and my dad commented on how silly it was for me to carry jars everywhere. It came off as a bit discouraging.
Yet as the months of reducing waste continued, I did what I could that was within my own reach. I had my own bedroom, so I worked on removing things I didn’t need. Since I had my own toiletries(洗漱用品), I was able to start personalising my routine to be more sustainable. I also offered to cook every so often, so I portioned out a bit of the cupboard for my own zero waste groceries. Perhaps your household won’t entirely make the switch, but you may have some control over your own personal spaces to make the changes you desire.
As you make your lifestyle changes, you may find yourself wanting to speak up for yourself if others comment on what you’re doing, which can turn itself into a whole household debate. If you have individuals who are not on board, your words probably won’t do much and can often leave you feeling more discouraged.
So here is my advice: Lead by action.
1.What do the underlined words “jump on that bandwagon” mean in the first paragraph
A.Share an apartment with you. B.Join you in what you’re doing.
C.Transform your way of living. D.Help you to make the decision.
2.What was the attitude of the author’s father toward buying groceries with jars
A.He disapproved of it. B.He was favorable to it.
C.He was tolerant of it. D.He didn’t care about it.
3.What can we infer about the author
A.She is quite good at cooking. B.She respects others’ privacy.
C.She enjoys being a housewife. D.She is a determined person.
4.What is the text mainly about
A.How to get on well with other family members.
B.How to have one’s own personal space at home.
C.How to live a zero waste lifestyle in a household.
D.How to control the budget when buying groceries.
C
On March 10, 2019, eight-year-old Tani defeated 73 young competitors to win the New York State Scholastic Chess Championship in his age group-kindergarten to third grade—with five wins and one draw. While the achievement is remarkable in itself, what is even more so is that the youngster, who was homeless at the time, began learning the game less than a year ago.
Tani and his family arrived in New York City from Nigeria in 2017, seeking religious protection. A church pastor(牧师) helped find the family of four space in a homeless shelter in Manhattan and, soon after, Tani entered the local elementary school. It was here that the young talent was first introduced to the basics of chess by a part-time teacher. Attracted by the game, then the seven-year-old begged his mother, Oluwatoyin, to allow him to join the school's chess club. The family were concerned that they would be unable to afford the fees and expenses, which added up to thousands of dollars due to travel and chess competition admission. Oluwatoyin emailed chess instructor Russell, who ran the club. To her surprise and delight, Russell agreed to waive all costs for young Tani. The rest, as they say, is history. The young boy, who has got seven prizes in less than a year, currently ranks 27 in America in his age group.
Though the chess club certainly helps, Tani's success can be largely owed to the efforts he has put into the game. The chess talent practices the game for several hours a day either on the floor with his board, or online, using his dad's laptop. Every Saturday, Tani and his mother head to Harlem for a free 3-hour class to help further sharpen his game skills.
Not surprisingly, Tani's incredible story, first reported by The New York Times, has resulted in an outpouring of support from the American public. Shortly after the young boy won the New York State Championship, Russell began a GoFundMe campaign for Tani and his family to "secure a home where he can continue with his journey".
And the heart-warming story gets even better! Since they now have a home, the family have decided to "pay it forward" and donate the over $200,000 collected on GoFundMe to African immigrants in America who are struggling the way the family was.
1.What made Tani's achievement especially remarkable
A. His young age. B. His quick learning.
C.Support from his family. D. Help from his teacher.
2.What does the underlined part "to waive all costs for young Tani" in Paragraph 2 mean
A.To pay for Tani's schooling. B.To raise money for Tani's family.
C. To teach Tani free of charge. D. To spend more on Tani's training.
3.What's Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. Success of Tani. B. Activities of the chess club.
C. Tani's devotion to the game. D. Public reaction to Tani's story.
4.What does the last paragraph tell us about the family
A.They are caring. B.They live in poverty.
C. They are honest. D.They are pitiful.
D
After years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance, curiosity and discontent. I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either. And I have never known an average man who had both. The two belong together.
Together, these deep human urges(驱策力) count for much more than ambition. Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of varying weights from the Leaning Tower at Pisa and timed their fall to the ground. Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, "Why Why Why "
Fortunately, curiosity and discontent don't have to be learned. We are born with them and need only recapture them.
"The great man," said Mencius (孟子), "is he who does not lose his child's heart." Yet most of us do lose it. We stop asking questions. We stop challenging custom. We just follow the crowd. And the crowd desires only the calm and restful average. It encourages us to occupy our own little corner, to avoid foolish leaps into the dark, to be satisfied.
Most of us meet new people, and new ideas, with hesitation. But once having met and liked them, we think how terrible it would have been, had we missed the chance. We will probably have to force ourselves to waken our curiosity and discontent and keep them awake.
How should you start Modestly, so as not to become discouraged. I think of one friend who couldn't arrange flowers to satisfy herself. She was curious about how the experts did it. Now she is one of the experts, writing books on flower arrangement.
One way to begin is to answer your own excuses. You haven't any special ability Most people don't; there are only a few geniuses. You haven't any time That's good, because it's always the people with no time who get things done. Harriet Stowe, mother of six, wrote parts of Uncle Tom's Cabin while cooking. You're too old Remember that Thomas Costain was 57 when he published his first novel, and that Grandma Moses showed her first pictures when she was 78.
However you start, remember there is no better time to start than right now, for you'll never be more alive than you are at this moment.
1.In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to ________.
A.propose a definition B.make a comparison C.reach a conclusion D.present an argument
2.What does the example of Galileo tell us
A.Trial and error leads to the finding of truth. B.Scientists tend to be curious and ambitious.
C.Creativity results from challenging authority. D.Greatness comes from a lasting desire to explore.
3.What can you do to recapture curiosity and discontent
A.Observe the unknown around you. B.Develop a questioning mind.
C.Lead a life of adventure. D.Follow the fashion.
4.What can we learn from Paragraphs 6 and 7
A.Gaining success helps you become an expert.
B.The genius tends to get things done creatively.
C.Lack of talent and time is no reason for taking no action.
D.You should remain modest when approaching perfection.

One of the easiest things in the world is to become a fault-finder. However, life can be great when you are not busy finding fault with it.
Several years ago I received a letter from seventeen-year-old Kerry, who described herself as a world-class fault-finder, almost always 1 by things. People were always doing things that annoyed her, and nothing was ever good enough. She was highly self-critical and also found fault with her friends. She became a really 2 person.
Unfortunately, it took a horrible accident to change her 3 . Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash. What made it almost impossible to deal with was that the day before the 4 , Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her 5 of boyfriends, the way she was living, the way she related to her mother, and various other things she felt she needed to 6 . It wasn't until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became 7 her habit of finding fault. Very quickly, she learned to appreciate life rather than to 8 everything so harshly(刻薄). She was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her life as well.
Perhaps most of us aren't as extreme at fault-finding, 9 when we're honest, we can be sharply 10 of the world. I'm not suggesting you 11 problems, or that you pretend things are 12 than they are, but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are— 13 most of the time, and especially when it's not a really big 14 .
Train yourself to "bite your tongue", and with a little 15 , you'll get really good at letting things go. And when you do, you'll get back your enthusiasm and love for life.
1.A. threatened B. interrupted C. bothered D. spoiled
2.A. caring B. boring C. interesting D. surprising
3.A. attitude B. plan C. measure D. explanation
4.A. occasion B. event C. accident D. adventure
5.A. memory B. notice C. evidence D. choice
6.A. hear B. contribute C. express D. admit

"I'm going to miss you so much, Poppy," said the tall, thin teenager. He bent down to hug his old friend goodbye. He stood up, hugged his parents, and smiled, trying not to let his emotions(情绪) get the better of him.
His parents were not quite able to keep theirs under control. They had driven their son several hours out of town to the university where he would soon be living and studying. It was time to say goodbye for now at least. The family hugged and smiled through misty eyes and then laughed.
The boy lifted the last bag onto his shoulder, and flashed a bright smile. "I guess this is it," he said. "I'll see you back home in a month, okay " His parents nodded, and they watched as he walked out of sight into the crowds of hundreds of students and parents. The boy's mother turned to the dog, "Okay, Poppy, time to go back home."
The house seemed quiet as a tomb without the boy living there. All that week, Poppy didn't seem interested in her dinner, her favorite toy, or even in her daily walk. Her owners were sad too, but they knew their son would be back to visit. Poppy didn't.
They offered the dog some of her favorite peanut butter treats. They even let her sit on the sofa, but the old girl just wasn't her usual cheerful self. Her owners started to get worried. "What should we do to cheer Poppy up " asked Dad. "We've tried everything."
"I have an idea, but it might be a little crazy," smiled Mom. "Without anybody left in the house but us, this place could use a bit of fun. Let's get a little dog for Poppy."
It didn't take long before they walked through the front door carrying a big box. Poppy welcomed them home as usual, but when she saw the box, she stopped. She put her nose on it. Her tail began wagging(摆动) ever so slowly, then faster as she caught the smell.

Dad opened the box and a sweet little dog appeared.

第二节
答案：a ; had been persuaded ; using ; finished ; threw ; accessible ; what ; awareness ; on/upon ; to step
解析：①考查冠词。campaign为可数名词,意为“活动,运动”。此处表示泛指,且fundraising以辅音音素开头,故填a。
②考查动词的时态和语态。根据语境可知,此处应用过去完成时,且students和persuade之间是被动关系,应用被动语态,故填had been persuaded。
③考查非谓语动词。stop doing sth.停止做某事,故填using。
④考查with的复合结构。句意:现在随着脱瘾活动的完成,他们打开了自己的(电子)设备,又重新上线了。detox与finish之间为被动关系,应用过去分词作宾补,故填finished。
⑤考查动词的时态。句意:在这项活动中,一些发现很难忍受这个脱瘾过程的学生中途放弃了分析句子结构可知,设空处应为主句的谓语动词,结合从句的谓语动词found可知,此处应为一般过去时,故填threw。
⑥考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知,设空处应用形容词作表语,故填accessible。
⑦考查名词性从句。分析句子结构可知,⑦_______ has been raised through the detox是一个主语从句,且从句中缺少主语,故填连接代词what。
⑧考查词性转换。由设空处前的定冠词the和设空处后的of可知,设空处应填名词awareness,意为“意识”。
⑨考查介词。rely on/upon sth.依赖/依靠某物,故填on或upon。
⑩考查非谓语动词。it's time for sb. to do sth.意为“某人是时候做某事了”,故填to step。

The First Online Life Skills Show
To help us better master life skills, our school held its first online life skills show last week.
With the theme "Work Creates a Better Life", this show had wide participation of students and teachers. As required, participants presented their life skills, such as cooking, baking and giving first aid, by videoing their demonstration and posting a vlog online.
This activity was creative and meaningful. Not only did it connect us together through online platforms, but it also raised our awareness of mastering basic life skills.
第二节
答案：
Paragraph 1:
Dad opened the box and a sweet little dog appeared. Poppy was amazed. She wagged furiously. She barked with joy. She smiled, her tongue lolling out as she investigated the surprise. The little pup was not shy and immediately starting yipping and jumping around the older dog. "That didn't take long," remarked Mom, as both dogs went roaring around the house in an impromptu game of chase. Dad laughed.
Paragraph 2:
A few weeks later, the boy arrived home from university. He had missed Poppy and was looking forward to seeing her. When he bent down to give her a big hug, he fell over in surprise as a small golden cloud came racing up to lick his face, too. "Oh my gosh, who is this " he exclaimed. His parents laughed at the look of shock on his face. "That's Pee-wee," said Dad. "I can't believe you got yourselves a puppy!" "We didn't," replied Mom. "This puppy is for Poppy!"
