The charity (慈善机构) Oxfam has shown that UK people bought 32% more second-hand clothes in 2022 than they did in 2018.
The charity gave out its findings as it started its yearly Second Hand September activity, which encourages (鼓励) people to buy used clothes, rather than new. Oxfam also wants more people to give away unwanted clothes so they can be reused, and to repair clothes they already have so they will last longer. Some people set themselves the challenge (挑战) of not buying any new clothes during September.
Buying second-hand clothes is becoming popular in the UK. Besides charity shops, there are stores selling old clothing that shows past fashion, as well as online shops such as Depop and Vinted. Depop says that 90% of its users are under the age of 26.
Buying second-hand clothing is good for the planet because making and selling new clothes can be one of the reasons of climate change. This is partly because the ways to get the right cloth, as well as making the clothes themselves, can use lots of energy and water. Also, new clothes are often carried around the world to be sold in shops. Lorries, planes and ships give off “greenhouse gases” such as carbon dioxide (二氧化碳). These keep the Sun’s heat in the Earth’s air and make temperatures rise.
Oxfam says that if everyone in the UK gave away all the clothes they had not worn in the past year to charity shops, as much as 4.9 million tonnes of carbon dioxide could be stopped from getting into the Earth’s air. That is the same as the waste from a plane flying round the world more than 6,600 times.
“Choosing second-hand gives people a way to take action,” said Lorna Fallon. “Shopping this way sends a clear message that people want and expect things to change.”
21.Oxfam wants more people to ________.
A.give out their findings about used clothes B.buy more new clothes during September
C.give away their unwanted old clothes D.repair the clothes that can last longer
22.The writer mention (提及) that 90% users of Depop are under 26 to __________.
A.show buying second-hand clothes is popular with young people
B.call on more young people to give away their used clothes
C.tell how popular it is to buy clothes online after the activity
D.interest the readers to finish reading the rest of the passage
23.People take part in Second Hand September activity probably because they __________.
A.like making the clothes themselves
B.would like to do something good for the Earth
C.feel like helping give off more “greenhouse gases”
D.are like the mirror to show how people take action
24.It’s clear that if more people give away used clothes to charity shops, ________ will be better.
A.the charity B.the clothes stores C.the air D.the flying planes
25.What would be the best title for the passage
A.Great Changes Taking off B.A Clear Message behind Clothes
C.A Cleaner September Begins D.Second-Hand Clothes Get New Life
【答案】21.C 22.A 23.B 24.C 25.D
【导语】本文主要介绍了慈善机构Oxfam举办的二手九月活动调查结果显示,购买二手衣服在英国越来越流行,同时对地球气候的变化有良好作用。
21.细节理解题。根据第二段“Oxfam as wants more people to give away unwanted clothes so they can be refused, and to repair clothes they already have so they will last longer.”可知,Oxfam希望更多的人送出不需要的衣服。故选C。
22.推理判断题。根据第三段“Buying second-hand clothes is becoming popular in the UK... Depop says that 90% of its users are under the age of 26.”可推知,作者提及Depop商店90%的用户年龄在26岁以下是为了说明买二手衣服受年轻人欢迎。故选A。
23.推理判断题。根据第四段“Buying second-hand clothing is good for the planet because making and selling new clothes can be one of the reasons of climate change.”可知,购买二手服装对地球气候有好处,由此推测人们参加二手九月活动可能是因为他们想为地球做点好事。故选B。
24.推理判断题。根据第五段“Oxfam says that if everyone in the UK gave away all the clothes they had not worn in the past year to charity shops, as much as 4.9 million tonnes of carbon dioxide could be stopped from getting into the Earth’s air. That is the same as the waste from a plane flying round the world more than 6,600 times.”可知,如果更多的人将旧衣服赠送给慈善商店,就阻止了相当多的二氧化碳进入地球空气,所以地球空气会更好。故选C。
25.最佳标题题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了慈善机构Oxfam举办的二手九月活动调查结果显示,购买二手衣服在英国越来越流行,同时对地球气候的变化有良好作用,所以二手衣服重获新生了。故选D。
三、阅读还原6选5
Do you want to know if your friends are more popular than you 26 It means you like to be friends with someone who has more friends. Maybe it’s because it’s easier to be friends with a popular person. 27
The study found an interesting fact in the friendship paradox(友谊悖论). “The more outgoing you are, the more you think that your friends are more popular than you,” Daniel Feiler said to Daily Mail. 28
So if you’re wondering “Am I popular ”, the answer is that you’re more popular than you think.
29 It’s also true on the Internet. For example, Jack likes Sina Weibo. His followers on it always have more followers than he does. So you can look at some of your friends’ Weibo. 30 Is the number bigger or smaller than yours
A.Then find how many followers they have.
B.He or she may have a larger friendship circle(朋友圈).
C.The friendship paradox is not only true of real-life friends.
D.Many of us like to be friends with people who have many hobbies.
E.It also found that it’s easier for quieter people to know how popular their friends are.
F.A study from the US found that people have this thought because of the “friendship paradox”.
【答案】26.F 27.B 28.E 29.C 30.A
【导语】本文一篇关于友谊悖论的报道,介绍了一个诡异的统计学事实:几乎所有人都认为他们的朋友比他们更受人欢迎。其实这个诡异的事情的原因很简单:因为你更有可能和朋友多的人交朋友, 你更有可能和受欢迎的人交朋友。
26.根据此空的位置和“Do you want to know if your friends are more popular than you ”可知,此空应该要填入一句能承上启下的句子,来提出文章中心论点,选项F“美国的一项研究发现,人们之所以有这种想法,是因为‘友谊悖论’。”符合语境。故选F。
27.根据上文“It means you like to be friends with someone who has more friends. Maybe it’s because it’s easier to be friends with a popular person”中提到的友情悖论的内涵和和对为什么人们更喜欢和有着更多朋友的人交朋友的原因的语境可知,此空和朋友圈有关,选项B“他或她可能有一个更大的朋友圈”符合语境。故选B。
28.根据此空在第二段的最后一句可知此空应该起到承上启下的作用,又由下文“So if you’re wondering ‘Am I popular ’”可知,此空应该和上文内容在逻辑关系形成转折,选项E“研究还发现,安静的人更容易知道他们的朋友有多受欢迎”符合语境。故选E。
29.根据下文“It’s also true on the Internet.”可知,在互联网上也是如此。故此空应该表达的是友情悖论和互联网有关,选项C“友谊悖论不仅适用于现实生活中的朋友”符合语境。故选C。
30.根据“His followers on it always have more followers than he does.”可知,接下来去查看朋友的微博去找到他们有多少粉丝,选项A“那就找出他们有多少粉丝”符合语境。故选A。

阅读下面材料,从材料后各小题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出一个最佳答案。
The charity (慈善机构) Oxfam has shown that UK people bought 32% more second-hand clothes in 2022 than they did in 2018.
The charity gave out its findings as it started its yearly Second Hand September activity, which encourages (鼓励) people to buy used clothes, rather than new. Oxfam also wants more people to give away unwanted clothes so they can be reused, and to repair clothes they already have so they will last longer. Some people set themselves the challenge (挑战) of not buying any new clothes during September.
Buying second-hand clothes is becoming popular in the UK. Besides charity shops, there are stores selling old clothing that shows past fashion, as well as online shops such as Depop and Vinted. Depop says that 90% of its users are under the age of 26.
Buying second-hand clothing is good for the planet because making and selling new clothes can be one of the reasons of climate change. This is partly because the ways to get the right cloth, as well as making the clothes themselves, can use lots of energy and water. Also, new clothes are often carried around the world to be sold in shops. Lorries, planes and ships give off “greenhouse gases” such as carbon dioxide (二氧化碳). These keep the Sun’s heat in the Earth’s air and make temperatures rise.
Oxfam says that if everyone in the UK gave away all the clothes they had not worn in the past year to charity shops, as much as 4.9 million tonnes of carbon dioxide could be stopped from getting into the Earth’s air. That is the same as the waste from a plane flying round the world more than 6,600 times.
“Choosing second-hand gives people a way to take action,” said Lorna Fallon. “Shopping this way sends a clear message that people want and expect things to change.”
21.Oxfam wants more people to ________.
A.give out their findings about used clothes B.buy more new clothes during September
C.give away their unwanted old clothes D.repair the clothes that can last longer
22.The writer mention (提及) that 90% users of Depop are under 26 to __________.
A.show buying second-hand clothes is popular with young people

C.tell how popular it is to buy clothes online after the activity
D.interest the readers to finish reading the rest of the passage
23.People take part in Second Hand September activity probably because they __________.
A.like making the clothes themselves
B.would like to do something good for the Earth
C.feel like helping give off more “greenhouse gases”
D.are like the mirror to show how people take action
24.It’s clear that if more people give away used clothes to charity shops, ________ will be better.
A.the charity B.the clothes stores C.the air D.the flying planes
25.What would be the best title for the passage
A.Great Changes Taking off B.A Clear Message behind Clothes
C.A Cleaner September Begins D.Second-Hand Clothes Get New Life
