The parents of a young man with Down Syndrome (唐氏综合症) have made an incredible move to set up his future after he faced constant rejections when looking for work.
After graduation, Anthony, 19-year-old, should have faced multiple career choices about which door to open, but when he actually tried those doors, one after the other, it was locked. Danijela and John Vrkic, from Canberra, were genuinely concerned about their son’s future. It was rather difficult for people with a disability, especially those with an intellectual disability, to find any type of work. Inspired by their son, they decided to leave their respective careers behind to build a business.
Mrs. Vrkic got to work armed with her traditional family recipe for “krofhe”, or doughnuts (甜甜圈), which dates back over four generations. She tested the market by sharing her homemade krofne at her previous office with colleagues and friends. Fortunately, it proved to be a hit. After four years in business, there are Krofine Canberra pop-up shops at a number of shopping centres, and an online store is also available.
Today, Krofne is a much loved, disability-inclusive family business and a social enterprise in Canberra. Employment opportunities for people with special needs have been generated. The specially designed KINECT program has highlighted how important it is for people with a disability to feel valued and included in the community. Mrs. Vrkic is an incredibly passionate advocate for inclusivity. She feels if somebody has a disability, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they can’t work. What she would like to see is for Australia to be inclusive—that every organisation understands and employs the disabled. That is her goal.
On the International Day of People with Disabilities, Mrs. Vrkic was invited to speak at Parliament House. She said, “We’re a very small fish in the sea, if our business can do it, why can’t other people ”
24. What did the parents do incredibly
A. They made doughnuts to sell. B. They raised a child with a disability.
C. They quit their jobs to help their son. D. They weren’t discouraged after losing jobs.
25. Why were Mrs. Vrkic’s doughnuts popular
A. Because she drew the inspiration from her son.
B. Because she followed the recipe passed down in her family.
C. Because she applied the technique learned from her previous job.
D. Because she got assistance from her previous colleagues and friends.
26. Which of the following words can best describe Mrs. Vrkic
A. Caring and ambitious. B. Elegant and determined
C. Humorous and brave. D. Passionate and curious.
27. What can be inferred from Mrs. Vrkic’s saying
A. Her success can be followed.
B. Her business needs to be expanded.
C. Every business can succeed with united efforts.
D. Every business can offer the disabled assistance.
C
Students at an elementary school in California, with the help of their art teacher, created a telephone hotline that people can call to get cheerful advice from kids during difficult times. In just days, the hotline began getting thousands of calls an hour.
Most people agree that with concerns like COVID 19, extreme weather, and the climate crisis, the last couple of years have been stressful.
Jessica Martin, who teaches art at West Side School in Healdsburg, California, thought her students just might have the magic words to bring calm to people in these difficult times. So Ms. Martin, along with artist Asherah Weiss, worked with students on a project they called “PepToc”.
The project had two parts — one was the hotline, and the other was creating encouraging posters. The two adults worked with students from kindergarten to sixth grade. They had the same basic question for all the students, “What could you say to help or encourage someone else ” Students working on the hotline thought of what they would like to say. When they were ready, Ms. Martin recorded each one. Later, she sorted out the recordings into the different parts of the telephone hotline.
Pressing 1 brings up ideas for people who are “feeling mad, frustrated or nervous”. Helpful suggestions include “punch your pillow” or “go get a cookie”. Pressing 2 results in “words of encouragement and life advice”. By pressing 3, you can hear a group of kindergartners saying together: “You can do it! Keep trying, don’t give up!” Pressing 4 starts the sounds of children giggling and laughing — a sound certain to bring a smile to anyone’s face.
Ms. Martin thought the project would only attract interest from people near the school. But the hotline was soon getting hundreds of calls a day. Words of the hotline spread quickly on social media. The hotline has become incredibly popular with stressed adults, patients in hospitals, older people in homes, and others who just want to hear the happy voices of children.
28. Who came up with the idea of the project
A. Parents of West Side School. B. Jessica Martin and Asherah Weiss.
C. A student of West Side School. D. The government of Healdsburg.
29. Which number should a caller press if he feels tense
A. 1. B. 2. C. 3. D. 4.
30. What was unexpected for Ms. Martin
A. The magic of the children. B. The sadness of the people.
C. The popularity of the hotline. D. The influence of the social media.
31. What could be the best title for the text
A. The Charm of Art Is Beyond Words.
B. A Project Is Carried Out to Study COVID-19.
C. A Hotline Brings Stressful People Hope.
D. Positive Messages From Kids Make a Hotline a Hit.
D
In both Africa and Asia elephants are being threatened by changes in their natural habitats. People are moving into the elephants’ habitats and endangering their survival. In the country of Sri Lanka, there is one place where elephants are not only protected but also respected. It is called Elephant Transit Home (ETH).
Set up in 1995, the ETH aims to protect and care for baby elephants that are found injured or living without their mothers in the wild. Every year about 30 baby elephants in Sri Lanka need help. Many are brought to the ETH. There they are given food, shelter, and medical care. Most importantly, they are given the chance to be with other elephants and become part of a herd (兽群).
A day at the ETH begins early in the morning when the baby elephants are given their first feeding of milk. During the day, each baby will drink an average of 13 gallons of milk. Older elephants are fed mostly coconut leaves and other native plants. There are no boundaries in the area for the baby elephants as they have the freedom to walk wherever they want. The cost of caring for the baby elephants is high. The ETH spends about $125,000 each year on powdered milk for the baby elephants.
At the ETH, workers try to reduce human connections with the elephants. They also try to increase bonds (联系) between the elephants. It usually takes three years for a baby elephant to be set free into its natural habitat. The elephants are sent back to the wild together with other orphans with whom they have bonded. This program helps them return to the wild as members of a herd that will communicate with each other and take care of each other.
The ETH is considered as one of the best animal protection sites in the world. Not only are the elephants cared for, but they are treated with respect. Most importantly, they go back to live in the wild, where they belong.
32. What do we know about the ETH
A. It helps to keep baby elephants safe.
B. It saves hundreds of elephants every year.
C. It aims to save elephants from extinction.
D. It changes elephants’ habitats for the better.
33. What does the underlined word “boundaries” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Extreme climates. B. Dividing lines. C. Limited foods. D. Endangered species.
34. Why do the workers reduce human connections with the elephants
A. To train them to stay away from hunters.
B. To provide them with more living space.
C. To study them better in a natural environment.
D. To help them make it in the wild as a herd.
35. What’s the purpose of the text
A. To show the ways of wildlife protection.
B. To explain the threat faced by baby elephants.
C. To introduce an animal protection organization.
D. To persuade the readers to protect elephants.

Nowadays being culturally aware is becoming an important skill to have. Here are 5 reasons why we should learn about other cultures.
·Other cultures are interesting.
It’s interesting to learn about those who are different from you. There’s nothing wrong with doing something just because it’s interesting. Learning a little extra knowledge never hurts anyone. 36
·You can stimulate your mind.
Learning about other cultures is an interesting way to challenge your thinking processes and expand the way you process information. 37 Make a point of learning more about other cultures and you will find your tendency to keep learning can help you grow mentally.
·Learning about other cultures fosters (促进) understanding.
38 But when you learn about another culture and see why others do the things they do, it’s easier to understand them. You can also develop sympathy for others.
·You realize there’s more than one way to do something.
When you learn about other cultures, you learn that there’s more than one approach to life. 39 Learning about other cultures allows you to move outside your own bubble, and find new ways of approaching problems.
40
With technology making the world smaller, and with the ease of travel between countries, the chances are that you will meet someone with a different cultural background at some point. Take the trouble to learn about other cultures and customs, and you’ll have a richer experience no matter where you go.
A. In other words, it forces you to think in new ways.
B. Find out the similarities between different cultures.
C. Traveling around the world is a dream for many people.

She was one of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile. Thanks to Susan. I was happy every day.

This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few days. “I’ll be back soon and I will write to you as soon as I arrive.” she told me. But I didn’t get her phone call nor receive any mail from her. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey, making my hope of seeing Susan impossible.
Whenever I thought of him, tears came into my eyes.

Paragraph 1:
But I couldn’t wait to run into the room and see my mom. Finding she was still not awake, I cried hard. In the following days, my dad, my sister, my brother and I made all efforts to look after her. We patiently fed her and talked to her, and we stayed up in turn to accompany her. Amazingly, one morning, my mom waked up and we cried with great happiness. After a few more days of great care, my mom was much better.
Paragraph 2:
Several weeks later, the doctor said my mom could go home. We then all made preparations for mom’s return and we couldn’t wait to see her at home again. When I got home from school that day, I was so excited and gave her a big hug. Seeing that my mom could walk freely again, all my family clapped their hands. At this moment, I realized how great my mom had been and that with love and support to each other, a family could be warmer and happier than ever.

W: So didn’t you see anyone else for a whole year
M: Well, there was that time when we were having the usual canned food and there was a funny noise. Jill thought it was the wind but it was getting closer. Suddenly the room was flooded with light from the window. I opened the door and found a box in the snow. I looked up and saw a plane flying away. They were passing nearby and someone told them that we were out there. They dropped us a box with some fresh fruit and vegetables. It was a lovely surprise.

W: Welcome to Student Life! Today we’re going to talk about setting up a project of student jobs in your school. Having students do different jobs around the school is a great way to prepare them for life in the real world. It encourages them to be responsible and also helps them learn new tasks and gain experience. However, it’s important to get students excited about the project, so the first thing you should do is let students know this project. Get the headmaster to make an announcement explaining the project. OK Then decide on the jobs you want and write out the descriptions of the skills and responsibilities needed for each position. Some typical jobs are Classroom Assistants. Recycling Officers and Computer Assistants. Next, ask students to apply for the jobs. Students should be encouraged to write letters of application for the job they are interested in. This is a great way to practice letter writing skills! And don’t forget, you should make sure that students are guided by a teacher so that they take their responsibilities seriously. A committee then reviews all the applications and gives jobs to the most suitable applicants. Finally, it’s important to get opinions from the students about the project, to find out which jobs are successful and which don’t go so well.

The parents of a young man with Down Syndrome (唐氏综合症) have made an incredible move to set up his future after he faced constant rejections when looking for work.
After graduation, Anthony, 19-year-old, should have faced multiple career choices about which door to open, but when he actually tried those doors, one after the other, it was locked. Danijela and John Vrkic, from Canberra, were genuinely concerned about their son’s future. It was rather difficult for people with a disability, especially those with an intellectual disability, to find any type of work. Inspired by their son, they decided to leave their respective careers behind to build a business.
Mrs. Vrkic got to work armed with her traditional family recipe for “krofhe”, or doughnuts (甜甜圈), which dates back over four generations. She tested the market by sharing her homemade krofne at her previous office with colleagues and friends. Fortunately, it proved to be a hit. After four years in business, there are Krofine Canberra pop-up shops at a number of shopping centres, and an online store is also available.
Today, Krofne is a much loved, disability-inclusive family business and a social enterprise in Canberra. Employment opportunities for people with special needs have been generated. The specially designed KINECT program has highlighted how important it is for people with a disability to feel valued and included in the community. Mrs. Vrkic is an incredibly passionate advocate for inclusivity. She feels if somebody has a disability, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they can’t work. What she would like to see is for Australia to be inclusive—that every organisation understands and employs the disabled. That is her goal.
On the International Day of People with Disabilities, Mrs. Vrkic was invited to speak at Parliament House. She said, “We’re a very small fish in the sea, if our business can do it, why can’t other people ”
24. What did the parents do incredibly
A. They made doughnuts to sell. B. They raised a child with a disability.
C. They quit their jobs to help their son. D. They weren’t discouraged after losing jobs.
25. Why were Mrs. Vrkic’s doughnuts popular
A. Because she drew the inspiration from her son.
B. Because she followed the recipe passed down in her family.
C. Because she applied the technique learned from her previous job.
D. Because she got assistance from her previous colleagues and friends.
26. Which of the following words can best describe Mrs. Vrkic
A. Caring and ambitious. B. Elegant and determined
C. Humorous and brave. D. Passionate and curious.
27. What can be inferred from Mrs. Vrkic’s saying
A. Her success can be followed.
B. Her business needs to be expanded.
C. Every business can succeed with united efforts.
D. Every business can offer the disabled assistance.
C
Students at an elementary school in California, with the help of their art teacher, created a telephone hotline that people can call to get cheerful advice from kids during difficult times. In just days, the hotline began getting thousands of calls an hour.
Most people agree that with concerns like COVID 19, extreme weather, and the climate crisis, the last couple of years have been stressful.
Jessica Martin, who teaches art at West Side School in Healdsburg, California, thought her students just might have the magic words to bring calm to people in these difficult times. So Ms. Martin, along with artist Asherah Weiss, worked with students on a project they called “PepToc”.
The project had two parts — one was the hotline, and the other was creating encouraging posters. The two adults worked with students from kindergarten to sixth grade. They had the same basic question for all the students, “What could you say to help or encourage someone else ” Students working on the hotline thought of what they would like to say. When they were ready, Ms. Martin recorded each one. Later, she sorted out the recordings into the different parts of the telephone hotline.
Pressing 1 brings up ideas for people who are “feeling mad, frustrated or nervous”. Helpful suggestions include “punch your pillow” or “go get a cookie”. Pressing 2 results in “words of encouragement and life advice”. By pressing 3, you can hear a group of kindergartners saying together: “You can do it! Keep trying, don’t give up!” Pressing 4 starts the sounds of children giggling and laughing — a sound certain to bring a smile to anyone’s face.
Ms. Martin thought the project would only attract interest from people near the school. But the hotline was soon getting hundreds of calls a day. Words of the hotline spread quickly on social media. The hotline has become incredibly popular with stressed adults, patients in hospitals, older people in homes, and others who just want to hear the happy voices of children.
28. Who came up with the idea of the project
A. Parents of West Side School. B. Jessica Martin and Asherah Weiss.
C. A student of West Side School. D. The government of Healdsburg.
29. Which number should a caller press if he feels tense
A. 1. B. 2. C. 3. D. 4.
30. What was unexpected for Ms. Martin
A. The magic of the children. B. The sadness of the people.
C. The popularity of the hotline. D. The influence of the social media.
31. What could be the best title for the text
A. The Charm of Art Is Beyond Words.
B. A Project Is Carried Out to Study COVID-19.
C. A Hotline Brings Stressful People Hope.
D. Positive Messages From Kids Make a Hotline a Hit.

In both Africa and Asia elephants are being threatened by changes in their natural habitats. People are moving into the elephants’ habitats and endangering their survival. In the country of Sri Lanka, there is one place where elephants are not only protected but also respected. It is called Elephant Transit Home (ETH).
Set up in 1995, the ETH aims to protect and care for baby elephants that are found injured or living without their mothers in the wild. Every year about 30 baby elephants in Sri Lanka need help. Many are brought to the ETH. There they are given food, shelter, and medical care. Most importantly, they are given the chance to be with other elephants and become part of a herd (兽群).
A day at the ETH begins early in the morning when the baby elephants are given their first feeding of milk. During the day, each baby will drink an average of 13 gallons of milk. Older elephants are fed mostly coconut leaves and other native plants. There are no boundaries in the area for the baby elephants as they have the freedom to walk wherever they want. The cost of caring for the baby elephants is high. The ETH spends about $125,000 each year on powdered milk for the baby elephants.
At the ETH, workers try to reduce human connections with the elephants. They also try to increase bonds (联系) between the elephants. It usually takes three years for a baby elephant to be set free into its natural habitat. The elephants are sent back to the wild together with other orphans with whom they have bonded. This program helps them return to the wild as members of a herd that will communicate with each other and take care of each other.
The ETH is considered as one of the best animal protection sites in the world. Not only are the elephants cared for, but they are treated with respect. Most importantly, they go back to live in the wild, where they belong.
32. What do we know about the ETH
A. It helps to keep baby elephants safe.
B. It saves hundreds of elephants every year.
C. It aims to save elephants from extinction.
D. It changes elephants’ habitats for the better.
33. What does the underlined word “boundaries” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Extreme climates. B. Dividing lines. C. Limited foods. D. Endangered species.
34. Why do the workers reduce human connections with the elephants
A. To train them to stay away from hunters.
B. To provide them with more living space.
C. To study them better in a natural environment.
D. To help them make it in the wild as a herd.
35. What’s the purpose of the text
A. To show the ways of wildlife protection.
B. To explain the threat faced by baby elephants.
C. To introduce an animal protection organization.
D. To persuade the readers to protect elephants.

With technology making the world smaller, and with the ease of travel between countries, the chances are that you will meet someone with a different cultural background at some point.

This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few days. “I’ll be back soon and I will write to you as soon as I arrive.” she told me. But I didn’t get her phone call nor receive any mail from her. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey, making my hope of seeing Susan impossible.

But I couldn’t wait to run into the room and see my mom. Finding she was still not awake, I cried hard. In the following days, my dad, my sister, my brother and I made all efforts to look after her. We patiently fed her and talked to her, and we stayed up in turn to accompany her. Amazingly, one morning, my mom waked up and we cried with great happiness. After a few more days of great care, my mom was much better.

Several weeks later, the doctor said my mom could go home. We then all made preparations for mom’s return and we couldn’t wait to see her at home again.

M: I saw an article in a magazine about some couples who had been there. Both of us got interested.
W: Weren’t you scared

W: Could you get in touch with the outside world there
M: There was satellite communication equipment.
W: So didn’t you see anyone else for a whole year
M: Well, there was that time when we were having the usual canned food and there was a funny noise. Jill thought it was the wind but it was getting closer. Suddenly the room was flooded with light from the window. I opened the door and found a box in the snow. I looked up and saw a plane flying away. They were passing nearby and someone told them that we were out there. They dropped us a box with some fresh fruit and vegetables. It was a lovely surprise.
听力材料 10 （第17-20题）
W: Welcome to Student Life! Today we’re going to talk about setting up a project of student jobs in your school. Having students do different jobs around the school is a great way to prepare them for life in the real world. It encourages them to be responsible and also helps them learn new tasks and gain experience. However, it’s important to get students excited about the project, so the first thing you should do is let students know this project. Get the headmaster to make an announcement explaining the project. OK Then decide on the jobs you want and write out the descriptions of the skills and responsibilities needed for each position. Some typical jobs are Classroom Assistants. Recycling Officers and Computer Assistants. Next, ask students to apply for the jobs. Students should be encouraged to write letters of application for the job they are interested in. This is a great way to practice letter writing skills! And don’t forget, you should make sure that students are guided by a teacher so that they take their responsibilities seriously. A committee then reviews all the applications and gives jobs to the most suitable applicants. Finally, it’s important to get opinions from the students about the project, to find out which jobs are successful and which don’t go so well.
