Jenna had a secret. Her mum is the head teacher of her school. She didn’t want anyone to know this as her classmates would think that she got special treatment. Not even her friends knew about it.

A group of chickens that would have been killed are now at the heart of a community food sustainability (可持续性) project.
14 hens have been adopted (收养) and now live at Roehampton Students’ Union’s Growhampton project based at Roehampton University. Now they are looked after by workers and volunteers as part of a project that aims to encourage everyone to think about sustainability.
Hillary Nevyjel, Chicken Care and Biodiversity Assistant, said, “We have long seats by the cage and when you sit with the chickens, they really cheer you up. You can just forget about everything and we get a lot of messages that they have helped students manage things successfully. We allow visits, so we have lots of people walking past them in the morning and families visiting at the weekend. The hens are popular with everyone.”
Alongside the chicken cage, the Growhampton project includes a café built from former shipping containers (集装箱), where eggs from the hens are sold. Volunteers and workers at the site work with outside organizations to help convey the message about food sustainability.
Hillary said, “We try to work not just with the university’s students but also the wider local community, such as youth projects and elderly groups who come to attend meetings about learning to grow their own food.”
Students, workers, and the community volunteer to take care of the chickens and it’s a great way for everyone to learn more, not just about hens but also about where food comes from.
“Food sustainability is becoming more important and people are beginning to realize that. Lots of visitors who come to our site take that message away with them and are encouraged to try growing their own at home,” Hillary said.
28. What is the purpose of the project
A. To save hens from being killed. B. To promote food sustainability.
C. To be aware of food sources. D. To raise funds for a community.
29. How do the hens help the university students
A. Their spirits have been lifted. B. They have been responsible.
C. Their independence increases. D. They have made new friends.
30. What does the underlined word “convey” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Acquire. B. Notice. C. Spread. D. Understand.
31. What can we learn about the project from the last two paragraphs
A. It is well received. B. It needs to be more creative.
C. It is fairly costly. D. It takes ages to see results.
D
Need to get rid of old clothes You’re not alone: With fast fashion, it’s easier than ever to follow trends. But cheap clothes aren’t made to last, most of which often end up in a landfill (垃圾填埋场). Take US as an example: per person generates an average of 82 pounds of such waste every year, with 85 per cent of it going to landfills even though 95 per cent can be reused.
Donating is a popular alternative — but know that only about 10 to 20 per cent of donated clothing gets sold at thrift shops (廉价旧货店). While all but five per cent of donated clothes are resold for reuse or recycling, it’s impossible to know exactly how much ultimately becomes trash.
The best way to ensure good, usable clothing doesn’t become waste is to increase the chances it ends up with someone who wants it. First, don’t wait too long if you choose to donate clothing to an organization, big or small. The sooner you donate your unwanted items, the more demand there is for them. Wherever you donate, ensure clothes are clean and dry. If it’s damaged or stained, don’t send it to thrift shops. They don’t have the capacity to do repairs and it just creates a financial burden in addition to the eco-burden, and defeats the purpose of the charitable action.
Clothes that are stained or damaged beyond repair will likely never be re-worn but can still be diverted (使转向) from landfills. You can send your clothes directly to recycling companies, like through Retold Recycling or municipal programmes. Old clothes can be downcycled into other items like wipers for car washes, and even generated into new textiles (织品).
Recycling is better than landfilling. It might take time to do a little research to find the right organization that can actually use the items you’re looking to give away. But it’s more rewarding than throwing everything in a big garbage bag, dumping it into a bin, and hoping for the best.
32. What can be learnt about fast fashion
A. It has reduced the eco-burden.
B. It has caused clothing waste.
C It has lost its appeal in the US.
D. It has led to a rise in landfills.
33. Why is the US example mentioned
A. To show the seriousness of the clothing waste.
B. To criticize the spending habits of Americans.
C. To push for tougher laws against fast fashion.
D. To offer practical advice on managing landfills.
34. What does the author suggest people do with old clothes
A. Make them into new textiles.
B. Put as many into landfills as possible.
C. Downcycle them into wipers.
D Donate them to where they are needed.
35. How does the author sound regarding recycling
A. Critical. B. Indifferent. C. Supportive. D. Unclear.

Mr Jackson was a well-respected teacher in their small town. He had always paid much attention to his students, especially the ones who needed help. When he noticed that one of his students, Emily, was not getting on the school bus with all the other children and that her exam results had dropped a bit, he became worried.
One day, he decided to follow her and was surprised when he saw her walking towards an old factory building. He parked his car a few blocks away from the factory and waited for Emily to enter. After a few minutes, he carefully moved toward the building, his heart racing with each step.
As he entered the dark and dirty inside of the building, his mind was flooded with a sense of pity. Then he saw Emily sitting on the floor, surrounded(包围) by her textbooks and notebooks.
“Emily, what are you doing here ” Mr Jackson asked, surprised.
Emily looked up and was surprised to see her teacher. She said, “Oh, Mr Jackson! I came here to do my homework. It’s quiet here, and I feel safe.”
“Why don’t you go home ” he asked, his concern(担忧) growing.
“I live with my mother. Recently, my mother lost her job and we haven’t found a house yet,” she replied. “And my father used to work here, so it’s a familiar place to me.”
Mr Jackson was heartbroken to hear this. He knew he had to do something to help Emily. He sat down beside Emily and asked her to tell him everything that was going on.
Emily shared stories about her father, who had passed away a few years before. She talked about how her mother had struggled(努力) to make ends meet.
Mr Jackson listened carefully. The more he knew about Emily, the more he realized that being a teacher was not only about teaching subjects, it was also about shaping young minds and making a difference to their lives. He decided to take action.
Paragraph 1:
The next day, Mr Jackson went to see Emily’s mother.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
One day, Emily’s mother came to Mr Jackson’s house to pick Emily up.

【解析】
【原文】W: Wow, congratulations, Simon! The place looks amazing! It looks like you had a professional designer.
M: I did it all by myself, with a little help from my brother Greg. He does some construction business, which was really helpful.
W: Honestly, I’m impressed! I also want to repaint the walls in my house, but not a full redecoration. I don’t know where to start.
M: Well, for a while now, I’ve been regularly buying home design magazines. Every now and then, I’ve saved the pictures I liked. Believe it or not, I have a full notebook of magazine pages. Because the decoration scale is small, it is not difficult.
W: Wasn’t it expensive I have imagined a project like this could be
M: Actually, it was surprisingly affordable. I managed to sell a lot of my old furniture and put that extra money towards the new material.
W: Great! If you don’t mind, I’d like to pick your brain a bit more. I’d love to get some inspiration from your experience. Are you free to come over for a coffee next week

Jenna had a secret. Her mum is the head teacher of her school. She didn’t want anyone to know this as her classmates would think that she got special treatment. Not even her friends knew about it. When her friends asked to go to her house, she just refused and said that her parents didn’t allow her to invite guests.
“Bring Your Mum to School” day was coming. Jenna usually told her friends in the past that her mum was out of town. “What does your mum do ” her friends asked. “She is a researcher, so she travels a lot.” Funnily enough, Jenna’s mum was always at “Bring Your Mum to School” day at her high school. A teacher once asked her, “Do you have a daughter ” Jenna’s mum said, “Yes, she is in college now.”
Jenna was very close to getting an A in her calculus (微积分) class. There was only one exam left. Jenna would have to get 100% on the exam to push her grade to an A. The teacher offered the students extra credits (附加分) if they brought their mum to the class on the “Bring Your Mum to School” day. Jenna told her mum that she wanted to tell everyone about their relationship. Jenna’s mum agreed. On “Bring Your Mum to School” day, Jenna brought her mum to her calculus class.

A group of chickens that would have been killed are now at the heart of a community food sustainability (可持续性) project.
14 hens have been adopted (收养) and now live at Roehampton Students’ Union’s Growhampton project based at Roehampton University. Now they are looked after by workers and volunteers as part of a project that aims to encourage everyone to think about sustainability.
Hillary Nevyjel, Chicken Care and Biodiversity Assistant, said, “We have long seats by the cage and when you sit with the chickens, they really cheer you up. You can just forget about everything and we get a lot of messages that they have helped students manage things successfully. We allow visits, so we have lots of people walking past them in the morning and families visiting at the weekend. The hens are popular with everyone.”
Alongside the chicken cage, the Growhampton project includes a café built from former shipping containers (集装箱), where eggs from the hens are sold. Volunteers and workers at the site work with outside organizations to help convey the message about food sustainability.
Hillary said, “We try to work not just with the university’s students but also the wider local community, such as youth projects and elderly groups who come to attend meetings about learning to grow their own food.”
Students, workers, and the community volunteer to take care of the chickens and it’s a great way for everyone to learn more, not just about hens but also about where food comes from.
“Food sustainability is becoming more important and people are beginning to realize that. Lots of visitors who come to our site take that message away with them and are encouraged to try growing their own at home,” Hillary said.
28. What is the purpose of the project
A. To save hens from being killed. B. To promote food sustainability.
C. To be aware of food sources. D. To raise funds for a community.
29. How do the hens help the university students
A. Their spirits have been lifted. B. They have been responsible.
C. Their independence increases. D. They have made new friends.
30. What does the underlined word “convey” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Acquire. B. Notice. C. Spread. D. Understand.
31. What can we learn about the project from the last two paragraphs
A. It is well received. B. It needs to be more creative.
C. It is fairly costly. D. It takes ages to see results.
【答案】28. B 29. A 30. C 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一个宣传食物的可持续性的项目。
【详解】1. 细节理解题。根据第一段“ A group of chickens that would have been killed are now at the heart of a community food sustainability ( 可持续性 ) project.”（一群本来会被杀死的鸡现在是社区食品可持续发展项目的核心。）根据第二段最后一句“Now they are looked after by workers and volunteers as part of a project that aims to encourage everyone to think about sustainability.”（现在，作为旨在鼓励每个人思考可持续发展的项目的一部分，它们由工人和志愿者照顾。）可知，这个项目的目的是宣传食物的可持续性。故选B。
2. 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句中的“We have long seats by the cage and when you sit with the chickens, they really cheer you up.”（我们在笼子旁边有长长的座位，当你和鸡坐在一起时，它们真的会让你高兴起来。）可知，这些母鸡可以让学生们精神振奋。故选A。
3. 词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句“Volunteers and workers at the site work with outside organizations to help convey the message about food sustainability.”（现场的志愿者和工作人员与外部组织合作，帮助convey有关粮食可持续性的信息。）及倒数第二段“Students, workers, and the community volunteer to take care of the chickens and it’s a great way for everyone to learn more, not just about hens but also about where food comes from.”（学生、工人和社区自愿照顾鸡，这是每个人了解更多信息的好方法，不仅了解母鸡，还了解食物的来源。）可知，学生、工人和社区自愿照顾鸡，每个人了解了更多的信息，由此可推知，现场的志愿者和工作人员与外部组织合作，帮助传播食物的可持续性的信息，以至于学生、工人和社区的每个人了解了更多的信息。故convey的意思为“传播”与spread相近。故选C。
4.推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“Lots of visitors who come to our site take that message away with them and are encouraged to try growing their own at home”（许多访问我们网站的访问者都会使用这一信息，他们被鼓励尝试在家种植自己的食物）可知，这个项目是非常受欢迎的。故选A。
D
Need to get rid of old clothes You’re not alone: With fast fashion, it’s easier than ever to follow trends. But cheap clothes aren’t made to last, most of which often end up in a landfill (垃圾填埋场). Take US as an example: per person generates an average of 82 pounds of such waste every year, with 85 per cent of it going to landfills even though 95 per cent can be reused.
Donating is a popular alternative — but know that only about 10 to 20 per cent of donated clothing gets sold at thrift shops (廉价旧货店). While all but five per cent of donated clothes are resold for reuse or recycling, it’s impossible to know exactly how much ultimately becomes trash.
The best way to ensure good, usable clothing doesn’t become waste is to increase the chances it ends up with someone who wants it. First, don’t wait too long if you choose to donate clothing to an organization, big or small. The sooner you donate your unwanted items, the more demand there is for them. Wherever you donate, ensure clothes are clean and dry. If it’s damaged or stained, don’t send it to thrift shops. They don’t have the capacity to do repairs and it just creates a financial burden in addition to the eco-burden, and defeats the purpose of the charitable action.
Clothes that are stained or damaged beyond repair will likely never be re-worn but can still be diverted (使转向) from landfills. You can send your clothes directly to recycling companies, like through Retold Recycling or municipal programmes. Old clothes can be downcycled into other items like wipers for car washes, and even generated into new textiles (织品).
Recycling is better than landfilling. It might take time to do a little research to find the right organization that can actually use the items you’re looking to give away. But it’s more rewarding than throwing everything in a big garbage bag, dumping it into a bin, and hoping for the best.
32. What can be learnt about fast fashion
A. It has reduced the eco-burden.
B. It has caused clothing waste.
C. It has lost its appeal in the US.
D. It has led to a rise in landfills.
33. Why is the US example mentioned
A. To show the seriousness of the clothing waste.
B. To criticize the spending habits of Americans.
C. To push for tougher laws against fast fashion.
D. To offer practical advice on managing landfills.
34. What does the author suggest people do with old clothes
A. Make them into new textiles.
B. Put as many into landfills as possible.
C. Downcycle them into wipers.
D. Donate them to where they are needed.
35. How does the author sound regarding recycling
A. Critical. B. Indifferent. C. Supportive. D. Unclear.
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. D 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了如何处理旧衣物以避免浪费。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“You’re not alone: With fast fashion, it’s easier than ever to follow trends. But cheap clothes aren’t made to last, most of which often end up in a landfill (垃圾填埋场).(你并不孤单：在快时尚时代，追随潮流比以往任何时候都容易。但是便宜的衣服不是用来穿的，大多数衣服最后都被扔进了垃圾填埋场)”可知，快时尚带来的后果是大量的衣服被浪费了。故选B项。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Take US as an example: per person generates an average of 82 pounds of such waste every year, with 85 per cent of it going to landfills even though 95 per cent can be reused.(以美国为例：每人每年平均产生82磅这样的垃圾，其中85%进入垃圾填埋场，尽管95%可以再利用)”可知，在美国，平均每人每年产生82磅的衣物废弃物，其中85%被填埋，尽管95%可以重新利用。由此可以推断，提到美国的例子是为了表明衣物浪费现象很严重。故选A项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The best way to ensure good, usable clothing doesn’t become waste is to increase the chances it ends up with someone who wants it. First, don’t wait too long if you choose to donate clothing to an organization, big or small. The sooner you donate your unwanted items, the more demand there is for them.(确保好的、可用的衣服不被浪费的最好方法是增加它最终被想要它的人拥有的机会。首先，如果你选择向大大小小的组织捐赠衣服，不要等太久。你越早捐赠不需要的物品，对它们的需求就越大)”可知，处理旧衣物最好的方法就是把它们捐给有需要的人。故选D项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Recycling is better than landfilling. It might take time to do a little research to find the right organization that can actually use the items you’re looking to give away. But it’s more rewarding than throwing everything in a big garbage bag, dumping it into a bin, and hoping for the best.(回收利用比填埋要好。你可能需要花点时间做一些调查，找到一个合适的组织，可以使用你想要赠送的物品。但这比把所有东西都扔进一个大垃圾袋，扔进垃圾桶，然后期待最好的结果要有回报得多)”可知，回收比填埋更好，更有意义，故作者对旧衣物回收持支持的态度。故选C项。

【详解】1. 上文“Nothing like a big test makes students feel fear and anxiety. Wanting to study is one thing, but it can be difficult to do without the proper guidance.(没有什么比大考更能让学生感到恐惧和焦虑了。想要学习是一回事，但是没有适当的指导就很难做到。)”提到学习需要合适的指导，本空承接上文，具体指出学习需要什么样的指导——培养良好的学习能力，C项“培养良好的学习能力是很重要的。”符合语境。故选C。
2. 上文“Panic will only make your situation worse. You will be focusing on the fear, and not the coming test.(恐慌只会让你的处境更糟。你将专注于恐惧，而不是即将到来的考试。)”指出专注于恐惧的坏处，空处承接上文，同样说明其坏处，E项“很多时候，恐惧甚至会阻止你做得更好。”承接了上文，进一步指出对考试的害怕会造成的不利影响，E项中的fear是上一句中的fear的原词复现。故选E。

Some people learn things better if they’re in certain colours while other people may remember pictures more easily. Use the method that works for you.(研究方法包括使用颜色、图片和头脑风暴或思维导图页面。有些人如果使用特定颜色的图片会学得更好，而另一些人可能会更容易记住图片。使用适合您的方法。)”可知，本段主要建议找到自己的学习方法。故A项“找出你的学习方法。”概括了本段主旨。故选A。

77. 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。续写的词数应为150左右。
Mr Jackson was a well-respected teacher in their small town. He had always paid much attention to his students, especially the ones who needed help. When he noticed that one of his students, Emily, was not getting on the school bus with all the other children and that her exam results had dropped a bit, he became worried.
One day, he decided to follow her and was surprised when he saw her walking towards an old factory building. He parked his car a few blocks away from the factory and waited for Emily to enter. After a few minutes, he carefully moved toward the building, his heart racing with each step.
As he entered the dark and dirty inside of the building, his mind was flooded with a sense of pity. Then he saw Emily sitting on the floor, surrounded(包围) by her textbooks and notebooks.
“Emily, what are you doing here ” Mr Jackson asked, surprised.
Emily looked up and was surprised to see her teacher. She said, “Oh, Mr Jackson! I came here to do my homework. It’s quiet here, and I feel safe.”
“Why don’t you go home ” he asked, his concern(担忧) growing.
“I live with my mother. Recently, my mother lost her job and we haven’t found a house yet,” she replied. “And my father used to work here, so it’s a familiar place to me.”
Mr Jackson was heartbroken to hear this. He knew he had to do something to help Emily. He sat down beside Emily and asked her to tell him everything that was going on.
Emily shared stories about her father, who had passed away a few years before. She talked about how her mother had struggled(努力) to make ends meet.
Mr Jackson listened carefully. The more he knew about Emily, the more he realized that being a teacher was not only about teaching subjects, it was also about shaping young minds and making a difference to their lives. He decided to take action.
Paragraph 1:
The next day, Mr Jackson went to see Emily’s mother.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
One day, Emily’s mother came to Mr Jackson’s house to pick Emily up.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
The next day, Mr Jackson went to see Emily’s mother. Mr Jackson promised to help them in any way he could. He said to her, “If you don’t mind, Emily can stay with me at my house until you find a house.” Emily’s mother agreed. Mr Jackson took Emily to shop for new clothes first and then took her home. He helped Emily catch up on her studies every day. Soon, Emily’s grades improved, and she started to come out of her shell, making new friends at school. Meanwhile, Emily’s mother managed to find a job and a house.
Paragraph 2:
One day, Emily’s mother came to Mr Jackson’s house to pick Emily up. She thanked Mr Jackson for everything he had done for them with tears in her eyes. Mr Jackson smiled and said, “You don’t have to thank me. It’s my pleasure to help you and Emily.” Emily hugged her teacher and said, “Thank you, Mr Jackson. You’re the best!” Mr Jackson hugged her back, feeling the warmth and a sense of satisfaction in his heart. He had made a difference to Emily’s life, and that was all that mattered to him.
