Approaching 96, at an age when most are lonely and in poor health, Olga Murray, full of energy, has been eagerly planning a trip to Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, while keeping in contact with hundreds of friends around the world. How can she be in such good shape Is it her good genes (Her mother lived to 98.) Her daily salads and three-times-a-week workouts Or might it have something to do with the retired lawyer’s second career as founder of a nonprofit organization
Scientists increasingly are finding that the answer—call it living with purpose, finding meaning in life or just engaging with something larger than yourself—can be a particularly healthy pursuit. Living with a sense of purpose can improve the quality of those final years. Murray offers a vivid example of how to create a sense of meaning.
Murray’s story began in 1984, after she had worked 37 years as a lawyer and was starting to think about retirement(退休). At 59, while traveling in Nepal, Murray found herself amazed by the children there. “They were poor beyond anything I had ever experienced,” she recalled in a self-published memoir(自传)years later. “Yet they were the most joyful little kids anywhere on earth.” She wanted to put the rest of her life into helping educate Nepalese children.
Returning to Nepal the next year, she met Allan Aistrope, then a volunteer English teacher at the country’s only orphanage(孤儿院). The two combined forces, beginning with organizing college scholarships for four of the orphans. After another five years, they had launched the Nepal Youth Foundation(NYF), which by then was supporting several hundred scholarship students and raising 60 homeless children. In 1994, the two hired Som Paneru, a former scholarship student, as executive director. Murray has taken several steps to make sure the NYF will survive after the unavoidable loss of her presence. She handed over the presidency to Paneru in 2012. Now, she is busy as usual, leading lots of fundraising campaigns.
4 How did Nepalese children impress Murray when she traveled in Nepal at 59
A. They were eager to receive education.
B. They lived a very poor but happy life.
C. They liked to communicate with foreigners.
D. They were terribly interested in her memoir
5. What did Murray do first when she travelled to Nepal the second time
A. She helped four orphans go to college.
B. She started the Nepal Youth Foundation.
C. She volunteered to act as an English teacher.
D. She sent 60 homeless children to the orphanage.
6. Which best describes Murray
A. Confident and helpful. B. Energetic and selfless.
C. Creative and professional. D. Kind-hearted and flexible.
7. What’s the writing purpose of this text
A. To encourage people to exercise regularly.
B. To advise people to change their jobs.
C. To attract more tourists to Nepal.
D. To inspire people to live a purposeful life.
C
During the outbreak of Corona-virus, people have got creative with ways to get everyday tasks done. Maria Botero, a resident and business owner in Medellín, Colombia is one of those out-of-the-box thinkers who has a new system in place to go about addressing her day to day workload. Owner of a local mini-market called E1 Porvenir, Botero has sought the help of her dog, Eros, to complete deliveries to some of their regular customers.
Eros, an eight-year-old chocolate Labrador, has been with the Botero family for several years now. Before she met Eros, Maria was uncertain to get a dog. However, her son’s repeated demands finally persuaded her to make up her mind. They welcomed Eros into their lives, and he’s been part of the family ever since.
When they opened their mini-market four years ago, the Boteros would bring Eros along for their daily deliveries. Thanks to a big brain and lots of treats, Eros gradually learned the names of some of their regular customers. When told someone’s name that he’s familiar with, he’s able to make his way to the person’s home alone. When the COVID-19 pandemic (流行病) got bad in Colombia and the government began restricting citizens’ ability to go out and buy groceries freely, Maria knew it was time to put Eros’ skills to good use.
Climbing the hilly neighborhood of Tulipanes with the handle of a basket held tightly in his mouth, Eros completes deliveries on a daily basis. Once he arrives at his destination, the customers know that tipping in the form of treats and lots of pats is a must. He’s such a good boy, after all! Inside the basket, Maria leaves a receipt for the goods delivered. Customers can pay via a simple online transfer.
8. Why did Maria accept Eros
A. She wanted to satisfy her son. B. She was a pet lover.
C. She tried to turn to him for help. D. She needed his company.
9. What does Eros do for Maria during the COVID-19 pandemic
A. He welcomes familiar customers. B. He delivers goods to regular customers.
C. He collects receipts from the new customers. D. He entertains customers with newly-learned skills.
10. What can we learn about Eros
A. He was once a pet of a customer’s. B. He usually went to people’s homes for treats alone.
C. He carried shopping baskets for Maria before. D. He used to follow Maria around the neighborhood.
11. How does the customers respond to Eros’ work
A. They leave tips in Eros’ basket.
B. They introduce their pets to Eros.
C. They show their love and satisfaction to Eros.
D. They express willingness to pay for Eros’ service.
D
Which is better for Earth: an electric or gas-powered vehicle The answer to this question might seem blindingly obvious. Of course electric cars must be better for the environment, because they don’t give off greenhouse gases as people drive. However, electric vehicles (EVs) aren’t perfect, and they come with their own set of polluting problems. Their batteries require a large amount of energy to produce.
Battery production is just one part of an electric car’s life span. A study looked at the entire life cycle of an EV’s emissions(排放)，from mining the metals for the batteries to producing the electricity needed to power them, and then compared this with the average emissions of a gas-powered vehicle. The team found that when EVs are charged with coal-powered electricity, they’re actually worse for the environment than gas-powered cars.
“Only when connected to the clean energy do EVs have an advantage over the gas-powered cars on a greenhouse gas basis,” said Colin Sheppard, an expert in energy and transportation systems. That’s why more and more countries are decreasing the power supply from coal. In China, the national grid is improving with more efforts in renewable energy. For example, it has twice as much wind energy capacity as the U.S. and it builds more solar panels per year than any other countries.
Sheppard has modelled a future in which all cars are electric. “We want to understand what it might be like if all passenger vehicles were electrified.” The model suggests that if all vehicles in the U.S. were electric, greenhouse-gas emissions would be 46% less every year. This reduction could be increased even further if those vehicles were using a technique known as “smart charging” in which cars are recharged at chosen times (often at night) to reduce the cost of electricity.
In short, it’s far easier to argue for buying an EV than a gas-powered vehicle. But what about the cost Aren’t electric vehicles too expensive for most people
12. In which case do EVs get more heavy-polluted than gas-powered cars
A. Being powered only by batteries.
B. Using coal-powered electricity.
C. Starting to give off greenhouse gases.
D. Replacing gas-powered vehicles entirely.
13. How does Sheppard’s model show the reduction of greenhouse-gas emissions
A. With a discussion. B. With an examination.
C. With a comparison. D. With a questionnaire.
14. What can be inferred from the text
A. China is making advances in renewable energy.
B. Compared with gas-powered cars, EVs are at an advantage.
C. There is still room for the development of EVs.
D. It’s not a challenge to choose between EVs and gas-powered cars.
15. What might the paragraph following the passage be about
A. Inventing green gas-powered vehicles.
B. Developing environment-friendly grids.
C. Getting rid of fossil energy like coal and oil.
D Making electric vehicles more affordable.

Scientists increasingly are finding that the answer—call it living with purpose, finding meaning in life or just engaging with something larger than yourself—can be a particularly healthy pursuit. Living with a sense of purpose can improve the quality of those final years. Murray offers a vivid example of how to create a sense of meaning.
Murray’s story began in 1984, after she had worked 37 years as a lawyer and was starting to think about retirement(退休). At 59, while traveling in Nepal, Murray found herself amazed by the children there. “They were poor beyond anything I had ever experienced,” she recalled in a self-published memoir(自传)years later. “Yet they were the most joyful little kids anywhere on earth.” She wanted to put the rest of her life into helping educate Nepalese children.
Returning to Nepal the next year, she met Allan Aistrope, then a volunteer English teacher at the country’s only orphanage(孤儿院). The two combined forces, beginning with organizing college scholarships for four of the orphans. After another five years, they had launched the Nepal Youth Foundation(NYF), which by then was supporting several hundred scholarship students and raising 60 homeless children. In 1994, the two hired Som Paneru, a former scholarship student, as executive director. Murray has taken several steps to make sure the NYF will survive after the unavoidable loss of her presence. She handed over the presidency to Paneru in 2012. Now, she is busy as usual, leading lots of fundraising campaigns.

During the outbreak of Corona-virus, people have got creative with ways to get everyday tasks done. Maria Botero, a resident and business owner in Medellín, Colombia is one of those out-of-the-box thinkers who has a new system in place to go about addressing her day to day workload. Owner of a local mini-market called E1 Porvenir, Botero has sought the help of her dog, Eros, to complete deliveries to some of their regular customers.
Eros, an eight-year-old chocolate Labrador, has been with the Botero family for several years now. Before she met Eros, Maria was uncertain to get a dog. However, her son’s repeated demands finally persuaded her to make up her mind. They welcomed Eros into their lives, and he’s been part of the family ever since.
When they opened their mini-market four years ago, the Boteros would bring Eros along for their daily deliveries. Thanks to a big brain and lots of treats, Eros gradually learned the names of some of their regular customers. When told someone’s name that he’s familiar with, he’s able to make his way to the person’s home alone. When the COVID-19 pandemic (流行病) got bad in Colombia and the government began restricting citizens’ ability to go out and buy groceries freely, Maria knew it was time to put Eros’ skills to good use.
Climbing the hilly neighborhood of Tulipanes with the handle of a basket held tightly in his mouth, Eros completes deliveries on a daily basis. Once he arrives at his destination, the customers know that tipping in the form of treats and lots of pats is a must. He’s such a good boy, after all! Inside the basket, Maria leaves a receipt for the goods delivered. Customers can pay via a simple online transfer.

Which is better for Earth: an electric or gas-powered vehicle The answer to this question might seem blindingly obvious. Of course electric cars must be better for the environment because they don’t give off greenhouse gases as people drive. However, electric vehicles (EVs) aren’t perfect, and they come with their own set of polluting problems. Their batteries require a large amount of energy to produce.
Battery production is just one part of an electric car’s life span. A study looked at the entire life cycle of an EV’s emissions(排放)，from mining the metals for the batteries to producing the electricity needed to power them, and then compared this with the average emissions of a gas-powered vehicle. The team found that when EVs are charged with coal-powered electricity, they’re actually worse for the environment than gas-powered cars.
“Only when connected to the clean energy do EVs have an advantage over the gas-powered cars on a greenhouse gas basis,” said Colin Sheppard, an expert in energy and transportation systems. That’s why more and more countries are decreasing the power supply from coal. In China, the national grid is improving with more efforts in renewable energy. For example, it has twice as much wind energy capacity as the U.S. and it builds more solar panels per year than any other countries.
Sheppard has modelled a future in which all cars are electric. “We want to understand what it might be like if all passenger vehicles were electrified.” The model suggests that if all vehicles in the U.S. were electric, greenhouse-gas emissions would be 46% less every year. This reduction could be increased even further if those vehicles were using a technique known as “smart charging” in which cars are recharged at chosen times (often at night) to reduce the cost of electricity.
In short, it’s far easier to argue for buying an EV than a gas-powered vehicle. But what about the cost Aren’t electric vehicles too expensive for most people
12. In which case do EVs get more heavy-polluted than gas-powered cars
A. Being powered only by batteries.
B. Using coal-powered electricity.
C. Starting to give off greenhouse gases.
D. Replacing gas-powered vehicles entirely.
13. How does Sheppard’s model show the reduction of greenhouse-gas emissions
A. With a discussion. B. With an examination.
C. With a comparison. D. With a questionnaire.
14. What can be inferred from the text
A. China is making advances in renewable energy.
B. Compared with gas-powered cars, EVs are at an advantage.
C. There is still room for the development of EVs.
D It’s not a challenge to choose between EVs and gas-powered cars.
15. What might the paragraph following the passage be about
A. Inventing green gas-powered vehicles.
B. Developing environment-friendly grids.
C. Getting rid of fossil energy like coal and oil.
D. Making electric vehicles more affordable.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. D
【解析】

【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The team found that when EVs are charged with coal-powered electricity, they’re actually worse for the environment than gas-powered cars.” 研究小组发现，当电动汽车以煤电为动力时，它们对环境的危害实际上比汽油动力汽车更大。可知，当电动汽车使用煤电时，造成的污染更大，故选B项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“This reduction could be increased even further if those vehicles were using a technique known as “smart charging” in which cars are recharged at chosen times (often at night) to reduce the cost of electricity.” 如果这些汽车使用一种被称为“智能充电”的技术，即在选择的时间(通常是晚上)充电，以降低电力成本，这种减少可能会进一步增加。可知，谢帕德的模型是通过对比来显示温室气体排放的减少。故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“But what about the cost Aren’t electric vehicles too expensive for most people ” 但是成本呢 电动汽车对大多数人来说是不是太贵了 可知，电动汽车仍有提升的空间，故选C项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“But what about the cost Aren’t electric vehicles too expensive for most people ” 但是成本呢 电动汽车对大多数人来说是不是太贵了 最后一段说电动汽车的买起来更容易，但是成本太贵，所以后文应该是说如何让电车更便宜，故选D项。

【16题详解】
根据第二段提到的“The first thing you must remember is that in order to succeed, you must be optimistic(乐观的）.(你必须记住的第一件事是，为了成功，你必须乐观)”和第四段提到的“Another quality that helps people succeed is creativity(有创造力）(帮助人们成功的另一个品质是创造力)”可知，下文说到了成功需要乐观和有创造力，论述了成功所需要的品质，即如何成功，结合上文“Some people succeed, while others may not.( 有些人成功了，而另一些人可能不成功。)”可推断承接上文提到的success,此处引出下文的成功的要素，G项中的“this”指代上文的“some people succeed”，且G项中的“some…,others…”结构与上文一致，“qualities”引出下文对成功品质的解释。故选G。
【17题详解】
下文“If you do not have an aim, then you will not be motivated to work hard and put your performance under the microscope to make sure that every detail is right.( 如果你没有目标，那么你就不会有动力去努力工作，不能把你的表现放在显微镜下，以确保每一个细节都是正确的)”说明你需要有一个目标，然后就会被激励去付诸努力。F项中的“motivation”与下文的“motivate”一致，说明你也需要有一个清晰的目标，因为动力是成功的关键要素之一。故选F。
【18题详解】
下文“They might be successful with a little creativity, but the most successful people are the most creative ones.( 他们可能会有一点创造力，但最成功的人是最有创造力的人。)”可知，后一句的they肯定是指代前文出现过的人，并且后面说的是最成功的人是最有创造力的。B项中的“some successful people”相符，想想你身边的成功人士，然后引出下文。故选B。
【19题详解】
下文“It will help you learn about how other people have achieved success. If you want to learn how to set up a successful business, you should read books about people like Bill Gates and Jerry Yang.( 它将帮助你了解其他人是如何取得成功的。如果你想学习如何建立一个成功的企业，你应该读一些关于比尔盖茨和杰瑞杨这样的人的书。)”说明你应该读书，说明阅读也是成功的另一要素。故选C。
【20题详解】
上文“Practise every day at whatever career you are in, and by doing so, you will see yourself, your business and your self-confidence begin to grow.( 无论你从事什么职业，每天都要练习，这样你就会看到你自己、你的事业和你的自信开始增长。)”说明无论你从事什么工作都要自信，A项中“trust yourself”和“confidently”与上文的“self-confidence”一致。因此推断选A项“如果你相信自己，并且自信地做自己想做的事，你的同事将会很愉快地与你工作。”符合语境。故选A。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了一项调查显示，中国年轻人更倾向于自己制作新鲜食品，而不是购买预制食品。
【36题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意：最近一项新的调查显示，中国的年轻人更喜欢做新鲜的食物，而不是购买现成的食物。固定搭配：prefer to do…rather than…，意为“更喜欢做……而不是……”，符合句意。故填to make。
【37题详解】
考查时态。句意：例如，来自安徽的22岁大学毕业生梅琳已经近3年不点外卖了。这里为本句谓语动词，根据时间状语“for nearly 3 years”可知，本句时态为现在完成时；主语为“Mei Lin”，单数，助动词使用has。故填has stopped。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：她经常在晚上慢跑，周末打网球来保持身体健康，此外还为明年春天在厦门举行的马拉松比赛做准备。非谓语动词担当目的状语，用动词不定式形式。故填to keep。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：她经常在晚上慢跑，周末打网球来保持身体健康，此外还为明年春天在厦门举行的马拉松比赛做准备。非谓语动词担当介词后的宾语，用动名词形式。故填exercising。
【40题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：但这一趋势并非只有女性在接受。这里为限定性定语从句的关系词，先行词为“one”，指物，关系词在定语从句中担当宾语，用关系代词that。故填that。
【41题详解】
考查形容词。句意：作为一名电脑程序员，苏波认为这是一个想要健康和充满活力的问题。分析句子成分可知，空处为形容词担当表语，和上文的“healthy”保持一致。故填energetic。
【42题详解】
考查虚拟语气。句意：和梅琳一样，苏波也建议健康饮食有助于我们的日常健身。这里为从句谓语动词，主句谓语动词recommend后的宾语用虚拟语气，为should+动词原形，should可以省略；根据句意可知，从句谓语动词为(should) be。故填be。
【43题详解】
考查状语从句的省略。句意：当被问及他们的饮食习惯在同龄人中是否普遍时，梅琳和苏波都表示很普遍。本句为状语从句的省略；从句主语为主句主语“both Mei Lin and Su Bo”，完整形式为“when they are asked…”，可省略为“When asked…”。故填asked。
【44题详解】
考查副词。句意：然而，目前还不清楚这种饮食趋势是否会被其他中国年轻人所接受。根据上文“When ____8____ (ask) whether their eating habits are common among their age group both Mei Lin and Su Bo say they are.”和下文“it’s not clear whether this food trend will ____10____ (adopt) by other young Chinese people.”之间为转折关系，用Yet。故填Yet。
【45题详解】
考查动词语态。句意：然而，目前还不清楚这种饮食趋势是否会被其他中国年轻人所接受。这里为本句谓语动词，根据空前的助动词“will”可知，空处为动词原形；主语“this food trend”和动词“adopt”之间为被动关系，所以用被动语态。故填be adopted。
