Nashville-based helicopter pilot Joel Boyers had just finished his job on Saturday morning and was heading home when he received a call for help from a woman in Pennsylvania. Her brother Johnson’s home in Waverly, Tennessee, was underwater and he was trapped on a roof with his daughters. Could Boyers help “I thought, how could I justify telling her I was not even going to try ” he said in a Thursday interview. “She just so happened to call the right person, because I’m the only person crazy enough to even try to do that.”
The weather was terrible and Boyers had to deal with hills and power lines on the way to Waverly, a small city about 60 miles west of Nashville. Just before reaching the town, he found the Internet was down, making it impossible to find the house. He flew on anyway.
“When I arrived, it was nothing but angry waters below me,” he said. A few people were out in boats, rescuing the trapped. Boyers was alone in the sky. He started flying up and down the flooded area, grabbing anyone he could.
Boyers said he ended up rescuing 17 people that day. He was proud of that, but said he was the one who should be thanking them. “I literally prayed just days before this that I would be given some meaning in my life, and then I ended up getting this call,” he said. He had flown over disasters before including floods, but “The police are usually there, and my hands are tied. This time there isn’t any,” he said.
To perform the rescues, Boyers had to carefully avoid power lines, balance his skids (打滑) on sloped rooftops, and fly over flood waters. It took all the skills learned over 16 years of flying, including for a television news station, for documentaries and for country music stars. “I don’t want to lie,” he said. “It was almost a little fun for me.”
24. Why did Boyers fly to Waverly
A. Because he had to do his routine tasks.
B. Because his brother was caught in the flood.
C. Because he was going to have an interview.
D. Because he received an emergency call.
25. What was the biggest challenge of finding Johnson’s house
A. A long distance. B. The Internet failure.
C. High mountains. D. Fallen power lines.
26. Which of the following best describes Boyers
A. Caring and courageous. B. Ambitious and demanding.
C. Modest and creative. D. Humorous and cooperative.
27. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. Surviving a Crisis B. Performing a Task
C. Braving a Flood D Testing a Helicopter
C
Food serves as a form of communication in two fundamental ways. Sharing bread or other foods is a common human tradition that can promote unity and trust. Food can also have a specific meaning, and play a significant role in a family or culture’s celebrations or traditions. The foods we eat — and when and how we eat them — are often unique to a particular culture or may even differ between rural and urban areas within one country.
Sharing bread, whether during a special occasion or at the family dinner table, is a common symbol of togetherness. Many cultures also celebrate birthdays and marriages with cakes that are cut and shared among the guests. Early forms of cake were simply a kind of bread, so this tradition bas its roots in the custom of sharing bread.
Food also plays an important role in many New Year celebrations. In the southern United States, pieces of corn bread represent blocks of gold for prosperity in the New Year. In Greece, people share a special cake called vasilopita. A coin is put into the cake, which also means success in business in the New Year for the person who receives it.
Many cultures have ceremonies to celebrate the birth of a child, and food can play a significant role. In China, when a baby is one month old, families name and welcome their child in a celebration that includes giving red-colored eggs to guests. In many cultures, round foods such as grapes, bread, and moon cakes are eaten at welcome celebrations to represent family unity.
Nutrition is necessary for life, so it is not surprising that food is such an important part of different cultures around the world.
28. According to the passage, sharing bread ________.
A. indicates a lack of food B. can help to develop unity
C. is a custom unique to rural areas D. has its roots in birthday celebrations
29. The underlined word in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to
A. trust B. boom C. health D. togetherness
30. How does the author explain the role of food in celebrations
A. By using examples. B. By making comparisons.
C. By analyzing causes. D. By describing processes.
31. What is the passage mainly about
A. The custom of sharing food. B. The specific meaning of food.
C. The role of food in ceremonies. D. The importance of food in culture.
D
Many scholars agree that a meaningful existence comes down to three factors: the coherence of one’s life, the possession of clear long-term goals and the belief that one’s life matters. But we believe there is another element to consider.
Imagine the first butterfly you stop to admire after a long winter or the scenery atop a hill after a fresh hike. Sometimes existence delivers us small moments of beauty. When people are open to appreciating such experiences, these moments may further improve bow they view their life. We call this element experiential appreciation, an ability to detect and admire life’s inner beauty as events happen.
To better understand this appreciation, we conducted a series of studies involving over 3,000 participants. Initially, we had participants rate their coping strategies to ease their stress. Those managing stress by focusing on their appreciation for life’s beauty reported experiencing life as highly meaningful. In the follow-ups, we asked them to rate the degree to which they agreed with various statements, such as “I have a great appreciation for the beauty of life” and other statements related to coherence, purpose, existential mattering. Our results showed that the more people indicated that they were “appreciating life”, the more they felt their existence valuable. In the experiment that followed, we further explored the phenomenon by asking participants to watch an awe-inspiring video. They also reported having a greater sense of experiential appreciation and meaning in life in these moments, compared with those watching more neutral videos.
The final results confirmed our original theory: appreciating small things can make life feel more meaningful. But applying that insight can be difficult. Our modern, fast-paced, project-oriented (任务驱动的) lifestyles fill the day with targets. We are on the go, attempting to make the most of our output. This makes it easy to miss what is happening right now. Yet life happens in the present moment. We should slow down, let life surprise us and embrace the significance in the everyday. After all, we live in a wonderful world. There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.
32. Why does the author mention the admiration of a butterfly
A. To raise a question. B. To describe a picture.
C. To draw a conclusion. D. To introduce a concept.
33. What is mainly explored through the studies in Paragraph 3
A. The life of the participants involved in the study.
B. The contribution of a long-term goal in life.
C. The theory of experiential appreciation.
D. The analysis of the belief that matters most.
34. What makes it hard for us to appreciate the present according to the passage
A. Our modern fast-paced lifestyle. B. The lack of opportunities.
C. Our focus on individual feelings. D. The ignorance of future outcomes.
35. Which of the following suggestions will the author probably agree with
A. Fill every day with a great many targets.
B. Find the inner beauty of ourselves.
C. Appreciate little wonders of everyday life.
D. Explore the end of a significant life.
第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
There are numerous reasons why people don’t take First Aid training programs. 36 Or they think that accidents happen to other people, not to them or their friends, family and colleagues. But if you ask any individual who has already taken a first aid training program if it was worth it, their answer will be “Yes!” Having, some basic first aid knowledge is essential and here are the reasons.
37
Having a basic first aid knowledge means that you’ll be confident in your skills and abilities in relation to first aid administration. By taking first aid training, it helps you to reflect on yourself and how you and others react in certain situations. Having this understanding will boost your confidence in a wide range of non-medical day-to-day situations.
It does more than help save lives.
It’s true that having first aid training undoubtedly helps save lives. 38 Giving appropriate first aid immediately can also help to reduce a person’s recovery time and make the difference between the patient having a temporary (短暂的) disability and a long-term disability.
It enables you to increase patients’ comfort.
Not all accidents, injuries or illnesses require a trip to the hospital but it doesn’t mean they don’t cause pain and suffering to the patient. 39 By knowing how to act — even just by employing simple techniques such as applying an ice pack correctly, you’ll help ease his discomfort.
It gives you tools to prevent the situation from becoming worse.
By being able to provide basic care you can stabilize a patient until emergency medical services arrive. You’ll learn how to use basic household items as tools to cope with many situations. You’ll also be trained in how to collect information and data about what happened and the patients’ condition. This information will be passed on to the emergency services, which saves them time. 40
A. They are too busy.
B. However, that’s not all.
C. It helps improve your skills.
D It creates confidence to give first aid.
E. You will be a valuable link in the chain of survival.
F. You must look after yourself and ensure your own safety.
G. A child who is crying because of a sprained ankle is suffering.
