Super Typhoon Rai （known as “Odette” in the Philippines） made landfall on Siargao Island in southeastern Philippines at 1:30 pm local time on Thursday, December 16．The typhoon was the 15th storm to hit the country in 2021 and was the strongest storm of 2021．Almost 16 million Filipinos were facing threats including strong winds, heavy rains, flooding, landslides, displacement and risking loss of life, home, livelihood and agriculture. Around 700,000 of them were children.
UNICEF （United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund） expressed deep concern for children and families at risk and announced its commitment to providing support to the Philippine government. Reyn Ambag was one of the children who were rescued during the typhoon.
12-year-old Reyn Ambag is a grade 7 student living on the island of Siargao. He goes to school in San Isidro National High School which is located in the Municipality of San Isidro. With Values Education as his favorite subject in school, Reyn is always ready to help others.
Reyn is raised by his mother who is a single parent and runs a retail store alone. Aside from his mother, his cousin has also been living with them to help out in the absence of Reyn’s father. Reyn’s mother provides for all three of them. She is able to support their daily needs and Reyn’s schooling by the income she gets from the small retail store.
During Typhoon Odette, Reyn’s family stayed inside the comfort room of the school where they were evacuated（疏散） to. There, he witnessed through the window how the strong winds of the typhoon destroyed the area. They stayed there until the storm subsided and it was safe for them to go out. Upon returning to their home, they were astonished to find that their house was damaged due to the fallen trees.
After observing the delays in restoring the electricity in their community, Reyn wanted to pursue a related job in the future. “I want to be an electrician someday so that if a power cut would happen because of a typhoon, I would be able to help in restoring it for free,” said Reyn.
24．What is the first paragraph mainly about

Procrastination（拖延症） is the act of putting off or delaying an action to a later time. I find one of the most maddeningly illogical causes of procrastination is uncertainty about where to start when I have multiple tasks which all need to be done.
What I want to stress is that I don’t think that procrastination, at least among high achievers like you, is a product of laziness. Among high achieving people, procrastination can be strongly motivated by perfectionism. Because you have high standards for yourself, you cannot do anything unless it’s perfect.
So, what can someone like you, Danny, do Here are things I would recommend you start doing immediately.
Understand that punishing yourself with negative messages will not help you but only discourage you. You need to accept that you are a well-meaning and talented person who has extremely normal psychological problems and deserves the care from yourself and from others that will help you succeed. Forgive yourself.
If you’re anything like me, you read any tales of successful people with heightened interest. Notice how many of them took detours（绕道） in their lives or suffered any number of failures on their way to success. You are younger than you feel and beyond your short-term tasks which feel at present like your entire career, there are a number of roads that will be open to you in the future. With a wide imagination and firm determination, you will have potentially a huge number of paths to happiness available to you in the future.
Finally, and most importantly, understand that your life is already happening, since you only have a limited number of years in life. Do not waste them thinking your happiness is some time off in the future. Resolve to live your life in the well-rounded happy ways that you want today. Enjoying life and doing what you find most fulfilling is not a reward scheduled for a decade from now. It is something for your whole life, starting day one.
28．What does the author think about procrastination
A．It contributes to stress. B．It results from laziness.
C．It originates from uncertainty. D．It leads to perfectionism.
29．Why does the author mention “successful people” in paragraph 5
A．To raise an issue to figure out. B．To suggest a career to work on.
C．To present role models to learn from. D．To advise an angle to think from.
30．What does the author suggest at last
A．Living in the moment. B．Learning from new resolutions.
C．Thinking about the future. D．Hoping for happiness all the time.
31．Where is the text probably taken from
A．A．research paper. B．A personal letter.
C．A health brochure. D．A psychology textbook.
D
Who cares if people think wrongly that the Internet has had more important influences than the washing machine Why does it matter that people are more impressed by the most recent changes
It would not matter if these misjudgments were just a matter of people’s opinions. However, they have real impacts, as they result in misguided use of scarce resources.
The fa scination with the ICT （Information and Communication Technology）revolution, represented by the Internet, has made some rich countries wrongly conclude that making things is so “yesterday” that they should try to live on ideas. This belief in “post-industrial society” has led those countries to neglect their manufacturing sector（制造业） with negative consequences for their economies.
Even more worryingly, the fascination with the Internet by people in rich countries has moved the international community to worry about the “digital divide” between the rich countries and the poor countries. This has led companies and individuals to donate money to developing countries to buy computer equipment and Internet facilities. The question, however, is whether this is what the developing countries need the most. Perhaps giving money for those less fashionable things such as digging wells, extending electricity networks and making more affordable washing machines would have improved people’s lives more than giving every child a laptop computer or setting up Internet centres in rural villages, I am not saying that those things are necessarily more important, but many donators have rushed into fancy programmes without carefully assessing the relative long-term costs and benefits of alternative uses of their money.
In yet another example, a fascination with the new has led people to believe that the recent changes in the technologies of communications and transportation are so revolutionary that now we live in a “borderless world”. As a result, in the last twenty years or so, many people have come to believe that whatever change is happening today is the result of great technological progress, going against which will be like trying to turn the clock back. Believing in such a world, many governments have put an end to some of the very necessary regulations on cross-border flows of capital, labour and goods, with poor results.
Understanding technological trends is very important for correctly designing economic policies, both at the national and the international levels, and for making the right career choices at the individual level. However, our fascination with the latest, and our under valuation of what has already become common, can, and has, led us in all sorts of wrong directions.
32．What are the effects of people’s misjudgments on the influences of new Technology
A．It stimulates innovation. B．It affects their personal opinions.
C．It influences their use of resources. D．It leads to improved technology.
33．Why is the “digital divide” a concern related to the fa scination with the Internet in rich countries
A．It leads to competition between rich and poor countries.
B．It results in a lack of access to technology in developing countries.
C．It increases the cost of computer equipment in rich countries.
D．It promotes global digital cooperation.
34．From Paragraph 4, we know that ______.
A．donating for technology is always the better option
B．the author does not provide opinions on this matter
C．donating for technology and basic needs should be balanced
D．donating for basic needs should be prioritized over technology
35．What is the passage mainly about
A．Significance of information and communication technology.
B．Serious consequences of over-emphasizing high technology.
C．Technological trends guiding economic policy making.
D．How to use donation money in the new age.

There’s a Symphony Just Below the Surface—Can You Hear It
Imagine it’s your birthday, and your friends and family pool their money to get you the best gift you can imagine: tickets for fabulous seats to see your favorite musical act. But what if you got to the venue and something terrible had just happened to you 36 . Even while facing the prospect of extreme difficulty in your life, you are so thrilled to see your favorite group that for a couple of hours, you can put all of that behind you.
37 . That is the ability to suspend our fears and worries and focus on what we love. In the example of the concert, we know that when the music ends, we may go back to our concerns, but while it’s playing, there is nothing we can do about them, so we might as well just give in.
Life always has its music, and we don’t need to be front-row center at a concert to hear it. Throughout our lives, no matter what else is going on, a melody is present. But we are often so focused on the present moment that we fail to hear the melody. 38 .
We can become magnificent listeners to life, with enough practice. And let’s face it, this is something we were born to do, so the skill is there, waiting for us to employ it. We can tap into the music, and when we do find ourselves distracted from it, we can use consciousness to bring us right back. It is as simple as saying, “OK, I’m distracted again; I am going to start listening again.” 39 .
Life is always playing music, but we have to listen, and we listen by being present. We can do this. 40 . When we do this, we’ll discover that the symphony inside of us is magnificent.
A．As humans, we have been given a wonderful gift.
B．These feelings may last several minutes or even last several hours.
C．In a word, wisdom and patience are the things that listening to the music of life requires.
D．Soon, we will find that we have to redirect ourselves less and less, and we hear the music more and more.
E．You’d broken your knees, say, or you learned of a failure of exam.
F．The noise of our worry drowns out all the other things we might otherwise hear and enjoy.
G．We just need to realize and engage with the music of life that is always playing.

第二节（满分25分）
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。
Dmitry Bondarenko was a Toronto-based artist. One day he had an appointment with a friend for a painting session. So he put the objects including his sketchbook（速写本） in the back basket of his bike and then cycled to meet his friend. But when he arrived and turned to take his things, he was shocked to find his sketchbook was missing.
The 5 x 7 black sketchbook contained a decade of his works and had great emotional value to him. It included portraits of friends and family, and still life paintings of his great grandfather when he served in Red Army in Russia. The note book became a visual account of the 40-year-old artist’s life and family history. His parents are Russian and Ukrainian, and he and his family moved to Canada when he was a child.
Dmitry shared that he felt a deep sense of loss when he first discovered his sketchbook missing. He thought that the book must have fallen out of his bicycle’s back basket. So he went back to look for it. First, he retraced his steps and posted dozens of flyers along the bike path through the park. He also checked with park services. Several days later, he still had no clue where his precious sketchbook was, making him extremely sad and anxious.
“I realized the weight of it when it was gone, how precious it is,” Bondarenko said sadly.
In a last-ditch effort to locate his treasured sketchbook, he decided to turn to social media. He shared a post to a neighborhood Facebook group, detailing his trouble. A few other community-oriented Facebook groups reshared the post. Word quickly spread within the local community for everyone to keep an eye out for the missing sketchbook.
In the meanwhile, a man named Chris found the sketchbook in the park. As he picked it up and skimmed through the pages, he found there was no name or address. The paintings in the book were so impressive that he couldn’t take his eyes off. Finally, he decided to leave the sketchbook where it was found, thinking the owner would return to look for it. He leafed through the sketchbook again before putting it down.
注意：
1．续写词数为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Suddenly, a shameful idea occurred to him. ______________________________________________________

Dear Jim,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to share with you the Chinese model in my heart.
The person I respect most is Tu Youyou, a remarkable scientist who was awarded the Nobel Prize. Tu Youyou and her team discovered Artemisinin, a drug that has saved lives of millions of malaria patients. I admire her not only for the her achievements, but also for her mental strength. She displayed great determination and persistence throughout her research. Facing many challenges and failures, she never admitted defeat and eventually succeeded.（或 Besides, she was very responsible and committed. She even tested Artemisinin herself to make sure that it was safe.） Her spirit inspires me to move forward.
Looking forward to knowing your role model.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节（满分25分）
Suddenly, a dishonorable idea occurred to him. “Why not keep it for myself ” Chris thought. Looking around, he found nobody was around. Then he quickly took off his coat, wrapped the sketchbook and went home. The moment he got home, he sat down and went through the sketchbook once more. An hour had passed before he was interrupted by a phone call. He answered the phone and then went on to check his Facebook. Just then, he found a post in his neighborhood Facebook group. It was about a lost sketchbook. Chris lost in thought.
Chris Elam contacted Dmitry at once, telling him that the sketchbook was in his house. When hearing the news, Dmitry was really happy. Then he asked for Chris’ address and came over without delay. Dmitry appreciated that Chris had taken such care with the book, and tried to present Chris with a finder’s reward. But Chris refused, saying he was simply happy to complete an act of kindness for a neighbor. Seeing the smile on Dmitry’s face, Chris felt so relieved. He realized a good deed could make a day for both the giver and the receiver.

Super Typhoon Rai （known as “Odette” in the Philippines） made landfall on Siargao Island in southeastern Philippines at 1:30 pm local time on Thursday, December 16．The typhoon was the 15th storm to hit the country in 2021 and was the strongest storm of 2021．Almost 16 million Filipinos were facing threats including strong winds, heavy rains, flooding, landslides, displacement and risking loss of life, home, livelihood and agriculture. Around 700,000 of them were children.
UNICEF （United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund） expressed deep concern for children and families at risk and announced its commitment to providing support to the Philippine government. Reyn Ambag was one of the children who were rescued during the typhoon.
12-year-old Reyn Ambag is a grade 7 student living on the island of Siargao. He goes to school in San Isidro National High School which is located in the Municipality of San Isidro. With Values Education as his favorite subject in school, Reyn is always ready to help others.
Reyn is raised by his mother who is a single parent and runs a retail store alone. Aside from his mother, his cousin has also been living with them to help out in the absence of Reyn’s father. Reyn’s mother provides for all three of them. She is able to support their daily needs and Reyn’s schooling by the income she gets from the small retail store.
During Typhoon Odette, Reyn’s family stayed inside the comfort room of the school where they were evacuated（疏散） to. There, he witnessed through the window how the strong winds of the typhoon destroyed the area. They stayed there until the storm subsided and it was safe for them to go out. Upon returning to their home, they were astonished to find that their house was damaged due to the fallen trees.
After observing the delays in restoring the electricity in their community, Reyn wanted to pursue a related job in the future. “I want to be an electrician someday so that if a power cut would happen because of a typhoon, I would be able to help in restoring it for free,” said Reyn.
24．What is the first paragraph mainly about
A．Different types of natural disasters. B．The introduction of a typhoon and its threats.
C．Historical data of the strongest typhoons. D．The government’s reaction to Super Typhoon Rai.

D．To meet his mother’s expectations of him.
C
Procrastination（拖延症） is the act of putting off or delaying an action to a later time. I find one of the most maddeningly illogical causes of procrastination is uncertainty about where to start when I have multiple tasks which all need to be done.
What I want to stress is that I don’t think that procrastination, at least among high achievers like you, is a product of laziness. Among high achieving people, procrastination can be strongly motivated by perfectionism. Because you have high standards for yourself, you cannot do anything unless it’s perfect.
So, what can someone like you, Danny, do Here are things I would recommend you start doing immediately.
Understand that punishing yourself with negative messages will not help you but only discourage you. You need to accept that you are a well-meaning and talented person who has extremely normal psychological problems and deserves the care from yourself and from others that will help you succeed. Forgive yourself.
If you’re anything like me, you read any tales of successful people with heightened interest. Notice how many of them took detours（绕道） in their lives or suffered any number of failures on their way to success. You are younger than you feel and beyond your short-term tasks which feel at present like your entire career, there are a number of roads that will be open to you in the future. With a wide imagination and firm determination, you will have potentially a huge number of paths to happiness available to you in the future.
Finally, and most importantly, understand that your life is already happening, since you only have a limited number of years in life. Do not waste them thinking your happiness is some time off in the future. Resolve to live your life in the well-rounded happy ways that you want today. Enjoying life and doing what you find most fulfilling is not a reward scheduled for a decade from now. It is something for your whole life, starting day one.
28．What does the author think about procrastination
A．It contributes to stress. B．It results from laziness.
C．It originates from uncertainty. D．It leads to perfectionism.
29．Why does the author mention “successful people” in paragraph 5
A．To raise an issue to figure out. B．To suggest a career to work on.
C．To present role models to learn from. D．To advise an angle to think from.
30．What does the author suggest at last
A．Living in the moment. B．Learning from new resolutions.
C．Thinking about the future. D．Hoping for happiness all the time.
31．Where is the text probably taken from
A．A．research paper. B．A personal letter.
C．A health brochure. D．A psychology textbook.
D
Who cares if people think wrongly that the Internet has had more important influences than the washing machine Why does it matter that people are more impressed by the most recent changes
It would not matter if these misjudgments were just a matter of people’s opinions. However, they have real impacts, as they result in misguided use of scarce resources.
The fa scination with the ICT （Information and Communication Technology）revolution, represented by the Internet, has made some rich countries wrongly conclude that making things is so “yesterday” that they should try to live on ideas. This belief in “post-industrial society” has led those countries to neglect their manufacturing sector（制造业） with negative consequences for their economies.
Even more worryingly, the fascination with the Internet by people in rich countries has moved the international community to worry about the “digital divide” between the rich countries and the poor countries. This has led companies and individuals to donate money to developing countries to buy computer equipment and Internet facilities. The question, however, is whether this is what the developing countries need the most. Perhaps giving money for those less fashionable things such as digging wells, extending electricity networks and making more affordable washing machines would have improved people’s lives more than giving every child a laptop computer or setting up Internet centres in rural villages, I am not saying that those things are necessarily more important, but many donators have rushed into fancy programmes without carefully assessing the relative long-term costs and benefits of alternative uses of their money.
In yet another example, a fascination with the new has led people to believe that the recent changes in the technologies of communications and transportation are so revolutionary that now we live in a “borderless world”. As a result, in the last twenty years or so, many people have come to believe that whatever change is happening today is the result of great technological progress, going against which will be like trying to turn the clock back. Believing in such a world, many governments have put an end to some of the very necessary regulations on cross-border flows of capital, labour and goods, with poor results.
Understanding technological trends is very important for correctly designing economic policies, both at the national and the international levels, and for making the right career choices at the individual level. However, our fascination with the latest, and our under valuation of what has already become common, can, and has, led us in all sorts of wrong directions.
32．What are the effects of people’s misjudgments on the influences of new Technology
A．It stimulates innovation. B．It affects their personal opinions.
C．It influences their use of resources. D．It leads to improved technology.
33．Why is the “digital divide” a concern related to the fa scination with the Internet in rich countries
A．It leads to competition between rich and poor countries.
B．It results in a lack of access to technology in developing countries.
C．It increases the cost of computer equipment in rich countries.
D．It promotes global digital cooperation.
34．From Paragraph 4, we know that ______.
A．donating for technology is always the better option
B．the author does not provide opinions on this matter
C．donating for technology and basic needs should be balanced
D．donating for basic needs should be prioritized over technology
35．What is the passage mainly about
A．Significance of information and communication technology.
B．Serious consequences of over-emphasizing high technology.
C．Technological trends guiding economic policy making.
D．How to use donation money in the new age.

There’s a Symphony Just Below the Surface—Can You Hear It
Imagine it’s your birthday, and your friends and family pool their money to get you the best gift you can imagine: tickets for fabulous seats to see your favorite musical act. But what if you got to the venue and something terrible had just happened to you 36 . Even while facing the prospect of extreme difficulty in your life, you are so thrilled to see your favorite group that for a couple of hours, you can put all of that behind you.
37 . That is the ability to suspend our fears and worries and focus on what we love. In the example of the concert, we know that when the music ends, we may go back to our concerns, but while it’s playing, there is nothing we can do about them, so we might as well just give in.
Life always has its music, and we don’t need to be front-row center at a concert to hear it. Throughout our lives, no matter what else is going on, a melody is present. But we are often so focused on the present moment that we fail to hear the melody. 38 .
We can become magnificent listeners to life, with enough practice. And let’s face it, this is something we were born to do, so the skill is there, waiting for us to employ it. We can tap into the music, and when we do find ourselves distracted from it, we can use consciousness to bring us right back. It is as simple as saying, “OK, I’m distracted again; I am going to start listening again.” 39 .
Life is always playing music, but we have to listen, and we listen by being present. We can do this. 40 . When we do this, we’ll discover that the symphony inside of us is magnificent.
A．As humans, we have been given a wonderful gift.
B．These feelings may last several minutes or even last several hours.
C．In a word, wisdom and patience are the things that listening to the music of life requires.
D．Soon, we will find that we have to redirect ourselves less and less, and we hear the music more and more.
E．You’d broken your knees, say, or you learned of a failure of exam.
F．The noise of our worry drowns out all the other things we might otherwise hear and enjoy.
G．We just need to realize and engage with the music of life that is always playing.

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。
Dmitry Bondarenko was a Toronto-based artist. One day he had an appointment with a friend for a painting session. So he put the objects including his sketchbook（速写本） in the back basket of his bike and then cycled to meet his friend. But when he arrived and turned to take his things, he was shocked to find his sketchbook was missing.
The 5 x 7 black sketchbook contained a decade of his works and had great emotional value to him. It included portraits of friends and family, and still life paintings of his great grandfather when he served in Red Army in Russia. The note book became a visual account of the 40-year-old artist’s life and family history. His parents are Russian and Ukrainian, and he and his family moved to Canada when he was a child.
Dmitry shared that he felt a deep sense of loss when he first discovered his sketchbook missing. He thought that the book must have fallen out of his bicycle’s back basket. So he went back to look for it. First, he retraced his steps and posted dozens of flyers along the bike path through the park. He also checked with park services. Several days later, he still had no clue where his precious sketchbook was, making him extremely sad and anxious.
“I realized the weight of it when it was gone, how precious it is,” Bondarenko said sadly.
In a last-ditch effort to locate his treasured sketchbook, he decided to turn to social media. He shared a post to a neighborhood Facebook group, detailing his trouble. A few other community-oriented Facebook groups reshared the post. Word quickly spread within the local community for everyone to keep an eye out for the missing sketchbook.
In the meanwhile, a man named Chris found the sketchbook in the park. As he picked it up and skimmed through the pages, he found there was no name or address. The paintings in the book were so impressive that he couldn’t take his eyes off. Finally, he decided to leave the sketchbook where it was found, thinking the owner would return to look for it. He leafed through the sketchbook again before putting it down.
注意：
1．续写词数为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Suddenly, a shameful idea occurred to him. ______________________________________________________

作文参考：
Dear Jim,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to share with you the Chinese model in my heart.
The person I respect most is Tu Youyou, a remarkable scientist who was awarded the Nobel Prize. Tu Youyou and her team discovered Artemisinin, a drug that has saved lives of millions of malaria patients. I admire her not only for the her achievements, but also for her mental strength. She displayed great determination and persistence throughout her research. Facing many challenges and failures, she never admitted defeat and eventually succeeded.（或 Besides, she was very responsible and committed. She even tested Artemisinin herself to make sure that it was safe.） Her spirit inspires me to move forward.
Looking forward to knowing your role model.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节（满分25分）
Suddenly, a dishonorable idea occurred to him. “Why not keep it for myself ” Chris thought. Looking around, he found nobody was around. Then he quickly took off his coat, wrapped the sketchbook and went home. The moment he got home, he sat down and went through the sketchbook once more. An hour had passed before he was interrupted by a phone call. He answered the phone and then went on to check his Facebook. Just then, he found a post in his neighborhood Facebook group. It was about a lost sketchbook. Chris lost in thought.
Chris Elam contacted Dmitry at once, telling him that the sketchbook was in his house. When hearing the news, Dmitry was really happy. Then he asked for Chris’ address and came over without delay. Dmitry appreciated that Chris had taken such care with the book, and tried to present Chris with a finder’s reward. But Chris refused, saying he was simply happy to complete an act of kindness for a neighbor. Seeing the smile on Dmitry’s face, Chris felt so relieved. He realized a good deed could make a day for both the giver and the receiver.
