Recently, a new kind of tourism has sprung up in China. Called "special forces style tourism", this new kind of tourism features visiting multiple scenic interests in a short, intense period, most often on weekends. It is popular among college students, reported China Youth Daily.
Yu Yinghua in Shanghai Lixin University of Accounting and Finance is one of them. The 22-year-old started the "special forces style tourism" in March after she was attracted by such experiences of Xiaohongshu travel bloggers. "Confined (限制) to the school for almost three years due to the pandemic, I'm hungry to take trips in my spare time," said Yu.
Her most recent trip was to Shanghai. Starting at 7 am, the 22-year-old visited nine local attractions. "That day, I walked almost 30,000 steps," Yu said, "Though it's a bit tiring, I enjoy the trip as much as day-long trips. It still lets me have a better understanding of the cities I go to."
Unlike Yu who traveled in nearby cities, Chen Junjun, a doctoral student at Shanghai Advanced Research Institute, CAS, likes to travel far to rid herself of academic stress. In April, the 24-year-old took a two-day trip to Xi'an, Shaanxi. During her trip, she visited all the scenic sites in the city. "Juggling (同时应付) many academic responsibilities, such a trip can bring a splash of color (一抹亮色) to my stressful life!" said Chen.
Even so, the 24-year-old added that such tourism is not suitable for everyone. Chen said that it's labor-consuming as visitors have to see as many sites as possible in an intensive (集中的) period. To some extent, such trips are not flexible as long-day trips in which you can change your plan as you like. "Thus, abundant energy and a calm mind are necessary for special forces style tourism," said Chen.
24．What can we infer about special forces style tourism from the text
A．It is labor-consuming but rewarding.
B．It is popular with all people in China.
C．It features visiting multiple scenic interests in a relaxing way.
D．It is flexible as long-day trips in which you can change your plan as you like.

A．It can bring relief to our stressful life.
B．It can contribute to learning more about the sites.
C．It can help save time and money while enjoying the sites better.
D．Confined for almost three years due to the pandemic, people long to take trips.
26．What are required for special forces style tourism
A．Enough energy and calmness.
B．Good outfit and an open mind.
C．Rich experience and willpower.
D．Abundant fund and a calm mind.
27．What's the main idea of the passage
A．A new kind of tourism has sprung up.
B．Special forces style tourism is well-received worldwide.
C．College students like visiting scenic interests on weekends.
D．College students challenge themselves by traveling on a tight schedule.

The plot of the story of "The Million Pound Bank Note " centers on the impossibility of encashing (兑现) a high valued bank note by a common man. Within this story it is narrated (叙述) that only two such notes were ever issued and anyone who walks into a bank to cash that note will get himself in trouble. So, do such million pound bank notes really exist Let's do a bit of digging around for the purpose of satisfying the curiosity over this question.
Such high valued pound bank notes do exist, and they were usually used for transactions (交易) within banks. The Bank of England used "one million " and "hundred million " pound bank notes to keep parity (等价) with bank notes issued by Scottish and Northern Irish banks. These notes — the one million ones were called "giants " and came in A5 size and the hundred million ones were called "titans " having an A4 size — were more like IOU documents (legal forms that describe a loan between a lender and a borrower) and they were special issues from the Bank of England to meet the requirement of backing the value of everyday notes issued by banks in Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Nine such one million pound notes were issued in connection with the Marshall Plan (the US's post-war aid program to Western Europe), equal to the loan from the US after World War II (WWII) in 1948. After cancellation (取消), of these nine only seven were destroyed and two survived with private collectors. Such high valued notes are not usually found in the normal transactional scenes and it is believed that notes worth eight billion pounds were printed in these heavy denominations (面额) in total.
Mark Twain can create humor from narrations of unrealistic (不现实的) and often funny simple situations and "The Million Pound Bank Note " is a nice example of his storytelling abilities.
28．Why does the author mention "The Million Pound Bank Note " in paragraph 1
A．To bring up the topic. B．To question the readers.
C．To retell the famous story. D．To support the topic.
29．What can we learn about "giants " and "titans "
A．They were the same size.
B．They were sold at a discount.
C．They were issued by banks in Scotland.
D．They were mainly used within banks.
30．What do we know about the nine 1948 one million pound notes
A．Seven of them were destroyed in WWII.
B．Two of them became private collections.
C．All are worth eight billion pounds now.
D．All were used by the public at that time.
31．What does the author want to do in the last paragraph
A．To show Mark Twain's humor.
B．To praise Mark Twain and his work.
C．To introduce "The Million Pound Bank Note ".
D．To uncover Mark Twain's attitude towards society.

One of the world's most significant ecological and environmental problems is desertification. Desertification is a type of land degradation in which a relatively dry land region becomes increasingly arid (干旱的), typically losing its bodies of water as well as vegetation and wildlife. It's happening all over the world and it's happening very quickly.
There are several causes of desertification. The immediate cause is the removal of most vegetation. This is driven by a number of factors, such as drought, tillage (耕种) for agriculture, overgrazing (过度放牧) and deforestation for fuel or construction materials. Some farmers farm their land too much, without giving the soil a chance to recover. Others allow their animals to eat up large areas of grass far too quickly — at a rate that makes it impossible for the grass to grow back. Cutting down trees is another major cause of desertification. Trees help protect the soil. Without trees, the soil easily blows away in the wind or washes away in floods. Besides, wildlife plays an important role in the preservation of vegetation and soil. So removal of animals is also one of the main drivers of increasing desertification. Moreover, some parts of the Earth are hotter today than they used to be. This change in climate has dried out a lot of land.
The consequences of desertification can be disastrous. So we need to take steps to prevent desertification. We should pay attention to how much energy we use in our daily lives. That way, we can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide released. We can walk or cycle short distances, and use less water. We can also protect our forests by reusing paper and not using disposable chopsticks. What's more, we should try to make people around us aware of the problem and encourage them to change their daily habits in the same way. As long as we create a harmonious environment, life on this planet will live in peace and abundance, and stop the pace of desertification together.
32．What can we learn about desertification from paragraph 1
A．It is happening slowly throughout the world.
B．It is an ecological and environmental solution.
C．It is the process during which farmland turns into desert.
D．It is the process during which a relatively dry land becomes rich.
33．Why does desertification occur
A．Wildlife does harm to the vegetation and soil.
B．The change in climate contributes to dried land.
C．Animals eat the grass at a slower rate than grass grows.
D．Trees are blown away in the wind or washed away in floods.
34．What steps can we take to prevent desertification
A．Changing our good daily habits.
B．Raising people's environmental awareness.
C．Using more paper and less disposable chopsticks.
D．Using more energy and releasing less carbon dioxide.
35．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A．Desertification — the major cause of climate change.
B．Desertification — everyone's responsibility for its treatment.
C．Desertification — the disastrous consequences of deforestation.
D．Desertification — the most significant ecological and environmental problem.

The journey you're on won't follow a straight path. 　40． 　 Push through, give it time and put in the effort. You will harvest the rewards of an artistic life.
A. Get out of your comfort zone.
B. Make career plans and set goals.

Noticing the newspaper on the couch, Mary reached for it. A big advertisement on the front page caught her attention. The local store was hosting a contest. "Share with us why your dad is special and win a $100 gift card for him," the advertisement said "This is fantastic!" Mary thought with excitement. She hurried to her room with the newspaper in hand. She picked up a pencil and a piece of paper, sat down, and began writing.
"My dad is really amazing. He works tirelessly to support our family and never complains. He always has time to listen to me and gives the best advice. He teaches me valuable life lessons and supports my dreams. Whenever I feel down, he lifts my spirits with his humor and love. And although he is tough on the outside, he has a heart of gold. "
Mary felt satisfied with her heartfelt words. She carefully copied them, caught an envelope and a stamp from her bedside, and rushed to the mailbox with her entry. "Dad will be overjoyed with a gift card," she thought optimistically.
Days turned into weeks as Mary eagerly checked the mailbox each day, hoping for news about the contest. However, as Father's Day was just around the corner, she still hadn't received any response.
"What should I do now " she wondered, feeling disappointed. She had no gift and no money and time was running out. But Mary was determined to show her love and appreciation. She had to come up with a plan. Mary closed her eyes and took a deep breath, searching for a solution.

Recently, a new kind of tourism has sprung up in China. Called "special forces style tourism", this new kind of tourism features visiting multiple scenic interests in a short, intense period, most often on weekends. It is popular among college students, reported China Youth Daily.
Yu Yinghua in Shanghai Lixin University of Accounting and Finance is one of them. The 22-year-old started the "special forces style tourism" in March after she was attracted by such experiences of Xiaohongshu travel bloggers. "Confined (限制) to the school for almost three years due to the pandemic, I'm hungry to take trips in my spare time," said Yu.
Her most recent trip was to Shanghai. Starting at 7 am, the 22-year-old visited nine local attractions. "That day, I walked almost 30,000 steps," Yu said, "Though it's a bit tiring, I enjoy the trip as much as day-long trips. It still lets me have a better understanding of the cities I go to."
Unlike Yu who traveled in nearby cities, Chen Junjun, a doctoral student at Shanghai Advanced Research Institute, CAS, likes to travel far to rid herself of academic stress. In April, the 24-year-old took a two-day trip to Xi'an, Shaanxi. During her trip, she visited all the scenic sites in the city. "Juggling (同时应付) many academic responsibilities, such a trip can bring a splash of color (一抹亮色) to my stressful life!" said Chen.
Even so, the 24-year-old added that such tourism is not suitable for everyone. Chen said that it's labor-consuming as visitors have to see as many sites as possible in an intensive (集中的) period. To some extent, such trips are not flexible as long-day trips in which you can change your plan as you like. "Thus, abundant energy and a calm mind are necessary for special forces style tourism," said Chen.
24．What can we infer about special forces style tourism from the text
A．It is labor-consuming but rewarding.
B．It is popular with all people in China.
C．It features visiting multiple scenic interests in a relaxing way.
D．It is flexible as long-day trips in which you can change your plan as you like.
25．Which of the following is NOT the reason why people take to this new kind of tourism
A．It can bring relief to our stressful life.
B．It can contribute to learning more about the sites.
C．It can help save time and money while enjoying the sites better.
D．Confined for almost three years due to the pandemic, people long to take trips.
26．What are required for special forces style tourism
A．Enough energy and calmness.
B．Good outfit and an open mind.
C．Rich experience and willpower.
D．Abundant fund and a calm mind.
27．What's the main idea of the passage
A．A new kind of tourism has sprung up.

The plot of the story of "The Million Pound Bank Note " centers on the impossibility of encashing (兑现) a high valued bank note by a common man. Within this story it is narrated (叙述) that only two such notes were ever issued and anyone who walks into a bank to cash that note will get himself in trouble. So, do such million pound bank notes really exist Let's do a bit of digging around for the purpose of satisfying the curiosity over this question.
Such high valued pound bank notes do exist, and they were usually used for transactions (交易) within banks. The Bank of England used "one million " and "hundred million " pound bank notes to keep parity (等价) with bank notes issued by Scottish and Northern Irish banks. These notes — the one million ones were called "giants " and came in A5 size and the hundred million ones were called "titans " having an A4 size — were more like IOU documents (legal forms that describe a loan between a lender and a borrower) and they were special issues from the Bank of England to meet the requirement of backing the value of everyday notes issued by banks in Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Nine such one million pound notes were issued in connection with the Marshall Plan (the US's post-war aid program to Western Europe), equal to the loan from the US after World War II (WWII) in 1948. After cancellation (取消), of these nine only seven were destroyed and two survived with private collectors. Such high valued notes are not usually found in the normal transactional scenes and it is believed that notes worth eight billion pounds were printed in these heavy denominations (面额) in total.
Mark Twain can create humor from narrations of unrealistic (不现实的) and often funny simple situations and "The Million Pound Bank Note " is a nice example of his storytelling abilities.
28．Why does the author mention "The Million Pound Bank Note " in paragraph 1
A．To bring up the topic. B．To question the readers.
C．To retell the famous story. D．To support the topic.
29．What can we learn about "giants " and "titans "
A．They were the same size.
B．They were sold at a discount.
C．They were issued by banks in Scotland.
D．They were mainly used within banks.
30．What do we know about the nine 1948 one million pound notes
A．Seven of them were destroyed in WWII.
B．Two of them became private collections.
C．All are worth eight billion pounds now.
D．All were used by the public at that time.
31．What does the author want to do in the last paragraph
A．To show Mark Twain's humor.
B．To praise Mark Twain and his work.
C．To introduce "The Million Pound Bank Note ".
D．To uncover Mark Twain's attitude towards society.

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了现实中真实存在百万英镑这样大面值的巨额钞票。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查，是一篇生活类阅读，首先要仔细阅读短文，掌握大意，然后结合具体的题目，再读短文，从中找出相关信息，就可以确定正确答案。
28．考查推理判断。作者在首段先描述了《百万英镑》的故事梗概，接着提出疑问"So, do such million pound bank notes really exist "那么，这样的百万英镑钞票真的存在吗 ；并在第二和第三段对这一提问进行了解释。所以作者在第一段提及《百万英镑》就是要引出本文所探讨的话题——现实生活中是否真实存在面值百万英镑的钞票。故选A。
29．考查细节理解。根据第二段可知，giants和titans分别指的是面值一百万英镑和一亿英镑的巨额钞票，它们的规格大小不同，但均由英格兰银行发行。结合"Such high valued pound bank notes do exist, and they were usually used for transactions (交易) within banks."这种高价值的英镑纸币确实存在，它们通常用于银行内部的交易；以及第三段中的"Such high valued notes are not usually found in the normal transactional scenes"这种高价值的票据通常不会出现在正常的交易场景中。可知，这两种类型的钞票一般只在银行内部进行交易。故选D。
30．考查细节理解。根据第三段中的"After cancellation (取消), of these nine only seven were destroyed and two survived with private collectors."在被取消之后，这九张中只有七张被毁，两张被私人收藏家保存了下来。可知，1948年的9张百万英镑中其中两张被私人收藏家收藏。故选B。
31．考查推理判断。根据最后一段"Mark Twain can create humor from narrations of unrealistic (不现实的) and often funny simple situations and "The Million Pound Bank Note" is a nice example of his storytelling abilities."马克·吐温可以通过对不现实的、常常是有趣的简单情景的叙述来创造幽默，《百万英镑》就是他讲故事能力的一个很好的例子；以及全文可知，作者通过首尾呼应的方式，以简述小说《百万英镑》的情节开始，再以评价《百万英镑》展示了马克·吐温精彩的幽默叙事能力为结尾，既向读者介绍了现实生活中真实存在面值百万英镑的钞票，又称赞了马克·吐温的叙事能力及其小说《百万英镑》的成功。故选B。

One of the world's most significant ecological and environmental problems is desertification. Desertification is a type of land degradation in which a relatively dry land region becomes increasingly arid (干旱的), typically losing its bodies of water as well as vegetation and wildlife. It's happening all over the world and it's happening very quickly.
There are several causes of desertification. The immediate cause is the removal of most vegetation. This is driven by a number of factors, such as drought, tillage (耕种) for agriculture, overgrazing (过度放牧) and deforestation for fuel or construction materials. Some farmers farm their land too much, without giving the soil a chance to recover. Others allow their animals to eat up large areas of grass far too quickly — at a rate that makes it impossible for the grass to grow back. Cutting down trees is another major cause of desertification. Trees help protect the soil. Without trees, the soil easily blows away in the wind or washes away in floods. Besides, wildlife plays an important role in the preservation of vegetation and soil. So removal of animals is also one of the main drivers of increasing desertification. Moreover, some parts of the Earth are hotter today than they used to be. This change in climate has dried out a lot of land.
The consequences of desertification can be disastrous. So we need to take steps to prevent desertification. We should pay attention to how much energy we use in our daily lives. That way, we can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide released. We can walk or cycle short distances, and use less water. We can also protect our forests by reusing paper and not using disposable chopsticks. What's more, we should try to make people around us aware of the problem and encourage them to change their daily habits in the same way. As long as we create a harmonious environment, life on this planet will live in peace and abundance, and stop the pace of desertification together.
32．What can we learn about desertification from paragraph 1
A．It is happening slowly throughout the world.
B．It is an ecological and environmental solution.
C．It is the process during which farmland turns into desert.
D．It is the process during which a relatively dry land becomes rich.
33．Why does desertification occur
A．Wildlife does harm to the vegetation and soil.
B．The change in climate contributes to dried land.
C．Animals eat the grass at a slower rate than grass grows.
D．Trees are blown away in the wind or washed away in floods.
34．What steps can we take to prevent desertification
A．Changing our good daily habits.
B．Raising people's environmental awareness.
C．Using more paper and less disposable chopsticks.
D．Using more energy and releasing less carbon dioxide.
35．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A．Desertification — the major cause of climate change.
B．Desertification — everyone's responsibility for its treatment.
C．Desertification — the disastrous consequences of deforestation.
D．Desertification — the most significant ecological and environmental problem.

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和主旨大意三个题型的考查，是一篇环保类阅读，首先要仔细阅读短文，掌握大意，然后结合具体的题目，再读短文，从中找出相关信息，就可以确定正确答案。

As an artist who shares her journey on social media, I'm often asked by curious followers how to begin an art journey. Unfortunately, there is no magic list I can offer. I do remember, though, what it was like to be a complete beginner. So I've put together some good tips for starting an art journey.
Start small. I suggest using a sketchbook (素描本) for small studies. These small studies provide inspiration and may be a springboard for more complex works in the future. 　36． 　 You'll want to look back on your journey to see how far you've come.
Paint often and paint from life. There's no better way to improve than to put in those brush miles. Whether you paint still lifes, portraits, or landscapes, paint from life as much as possible. 　37． 　
Continually challenge yourself to try something new. 　38． 　 Artistic growth can be a bit painful. Welcome to the club；we've all been there. I love taking on challenges. I once took up a challenge to create a painting every day for a month and post the works online.
　39． 　 Seeking and accepting constructive feedback (反馈) is crucial to growth. I post my work on social media and, in turn, have met some of the kindest people. They make me feel valued and respected, no matter my level of artistic ability.
The journey you're on won't follow a straight path. 　40． 　 Push through, give it time and put in the effort. You will harvest the rewards of an artistic life.
A. Get out of your comfort zone.
B. Make career plans and set goals.
C. Don't throw away your beginner art.
D. Share your work if you feel comfortable doing so.
E. You'll hit roadblocks, and you'll feel discouraged at times.
F. Evaluate your performance and, if needed, redefine your role.
G. You'll develop that painting muscle memory that only comes with repetition.

Mary sat down heavily on the sofa, feeling a bit down. Father's Day was drawing near, yet she didn't have a gift for her dad. "How can I possibly get a gift if I don't have any money " she wondered.
Noticing the newspaper on the couch, Mary reached for it. A big advertisement on the front page caught her attention. The local store was hosting a contest. "Share with us why your dad is special and win a $100 gift card for him," the advertisement said "This is fantastic!" Mary thought with excitement. She hurried to her room with the newspaper in hand. She picked up a pencil and a piece of paper, sat down, and began writing.
"My dad is really amazing. He works tirelessly to support our family and never complains. He always has time to listen to me and gives the best advice. He teaches me valuable life lessons and supports my dreams. Whenever I feel down, he lifts my spirits with his humor and love. And although he is tough on the outside, he has a heart of gold. "
Mary felt satisfied with her heartfelt words. She carefully copied them, caught an envelope and a stamp from her bedside, and rushed to the mailbox with her entry. "Dad will be overjoyed with a gift card," she thought optimistically.
Days turned into weeks as Mary eagerly checked the mailbox each day, hoping for news about the contest. However, as Father's Day was just around the corner, she still hadn't received any response.
"What should I do now " she wondered, feeling disappointed. She had no gift and no money and time was running out. But Mary was determined to show her love and appreciation. She had to come up with a plan. Mary closed her eyes and took a deep breath, searching for a solution.

Filled with love, Mary completed the letter and carefully placed it inside an envelope, a wide smile lighting up her face.
On the morning of Father's Day, Mary gave the letter to her father. After reading it, he embraced Mary tightly with tears welling up. "Thank you, my dear!" he said. Resting against her dad's shoulder, Mary slowly explained why she had chosen to write a letter as a gift. Upon hearing her heartfelt explanation, her dad gently touched her head and said, "To me, your letter means more than a thousand gift cards." They hugged again with joy.
