A
Vernon Jackson works at his barbershop(理发店) in Cincinnati even on his off days. But it’s not because he wants to make as much money as possible—it’s because that’s the day he has set aside to give free haircuts to children with special needs.
He began his Gifted Program haircuts in 2021 after hearing many horror stories that parents were going through with. Barbers had no patience with those children. Studies have shown people typically feel more confident and in control in both social as well as professional settings with good, fresh haircuts. So Jackson resolved to open his shop on his day off only to children with special needs who were looking to get a proper cut.
“I can give them the full attention they need,” Jackson said in the CBS News. He found that at least some of his off-day clients who were sensitive to unfamiliar environments and sounds found the empty shop comforting. His goal is to get the children used to barbershops in general so they can eventually feel comfortable going in for haircuts when there are other customers around.
Instagram users flood Jackson’s account on the platform with encouragement. “I have happy tears,” one user wrote in the comments of a video that Jackson posted showing him lining a Gifted Program boy up for a haircut. “You are truly doing amazing things.”
Friends and supporters sponsor the haircuts through donations to an online GoFundMe campaign, according to what Jackson told CBS. He hopes to eventually raise enough money for the program to be able to travel to other parts of the US to give haircuts to children with special needs there. “It’s really been a beautiful experience,” Jackson said of starting the Gifted Program. “This has allowed me to love it to my fullest capacity and to see what happens when I do.”
1. Why did Jackson decide to start the Gifted Program
A. To make as much money as possible.
B. To show barbers’ patience and sympathy.
C. To help parents with horrible experiences.
D. To reach out to children with special needs.
2. What does Jackson expect of the children through the Gifted Program
A. Love for fresh haircuts. B. Attention to other customers.
C. Healthy adaptation to surroundings. D. Courage to have haircuts alone.
3. What is online users’ attitude to the Gifted Program
A. Objective. B. Concerned. C. Favorable. D. Confused.
4. What can we learn about Jackson from the last paragraph
A. He donates to an online organization.
B. He is highly ambitious for his program.
C. He has made a big difference to American kids.
D. He has regained faith in life by giving free haircuts.

Winter may be seen as the time to fill up with comfort food, but in fact, the sunny summer months are when men eat more calories-unlike women. “The effect may occur because sunlight makes the skin release an appetite-stimulating hormone called ghrelin(饥饿激素),” says Carmit Levy at Tel Aviv University.
Levy and her team noticed the unexpected effect in experiments in mice that investigated mechanisms(机制)behind skin cancer, in which male animals exposed to UV light ate more food. To see if humans do the same, the researchers used existing data on 3,000 people who had filled in dietary questionnaires as part of the government’s regular national health and nutrition survey. Between March and September, men consumed about 17 percent more calories per day than they did during the rest of the year while women’s food intake stayed about the same.
Human appetite is influenced by many systems, but ghrelin seems to be the only hormone that directly stimulates eating. It was thought to be mainly secreted by the stomach when empty. “It tells the brain to eat more,” says Caroline Gorvin at the University of Birmingham.
Further investigation revealed that exposing male mice to UVB radiation raised levels of ghrelin secretion by fat cells in their skin. Boosted levels of ghrelin were also seen in skin samples that were taken from men and exposed to UV light in the lab. Gorvin says the skin hadn’t previously been thought to play a role in appetite. “If it’s real, it’s quite exciting and we should spare no efforts to get to the bottom,” she says.
It is unclear why the effect happens, but it may be an adaptive response to fuel greater physical activity in summer, says Gorvin. “As the largest organ of the body, it makes sense that the skin can sense the environment, sensing that there is UV now, that now is the time to go out.”
5. What can we learn about the effect from paragraph 1
A. Humans tend to eat more food in winter.
B. Our skin contains a hormone that makes us active.
C. Summer sunlight seems to boost men’s calorie intake.
D. Women suffer loss of appetite because of summer heat.
6. What helped the team look into the effect on humans
A. Doing experiments in UV light.
B. Analysing existing data offered.
C. Carrying out dietary questionnaires.
D. Surveying national health condition.
7. What does the underlined word “secreted” mean in paragraph 3
A. Balanced. B. Influenced. C. Raised. D. Produced.
8. What can we learn from Gorvin’s words
A. The skin is a decisive factor in physical activities.
B. Exposure to UV light contributes to calorie burnup.
C. The role of the skin in appetite needs further research.
D. Higher food intake makes men gain weight in summer.

三、完形填空
【语篇导读】:本文的语篇类型是记叙文,主题语境为人与社会。文章以一位医生的口吻介绍了一位自己的患者,同时遭受疾病和贫困折磨的Simone因为陌生人的二十美金而激动落泪。
14.B考查动词短语辨析。句意:“对不起,医生,”她说,“我不应该这样占用你的时间。”A. mounting up增长;B. taking up占据;C. summing up总结;D. brightening up发亮。由后文“deserving of my time”可知,虽然Simone认为她在占据作者的时间,可作者认为这是值得的,应该用take up表示占据时间。

19.A考查形容词词义辨析。句意:但以Simone的形式直面贫困是令人不安的。A.disturbing 打扰;B. warning警告;C. fueling提供燃料;D. abusing虐待。这里意指以Simone的境遇面对贫穷是让人不安、困扰的,因为从后文可知Simone的贫穷状况是作者难以理解的。
20.D考查连接词词义辨析。句意:每个星期,在付清房租和电费后,她只剩下20美元生活。A. until直到;B. since自从;C. before在……之前;D. after在……之后。这里意思是在缴纳完租金和水电费之后只剩20美金,所以这里应该使用after。
21.A考查名词词义辨析。句意:她必须用这些钱买食物、衣服、旅行和支付所有其他账单。A. bills账单;B. taxes税收;C. discounts折扣;D. sponsors赞助。根据上文“From this she has to buy food, clothes, travel and pay all other”可知,她只能用剩下的20美金去买吃的、衣服、交通以及支付其他的账单,bills有账单的意思。
22.B考查形容词词义辨析。句意:Simone决心让女儿在生活中拥有一切机会,并在慈善商店为女儿寻找书籍。A. opposed相反的;B. determined下定决心的;C. committed尽心尽力的;D. recognized公认的。因为她的女儿拥有一切机会是她想象中的事情,用determine表示对未来的决定。

24.C考查动词词义辨析。句意:她陷入了抑郁,尽管她继续工作,但开始觉得生活不再值得过下去了。A. denied拒绝;B. withdrew收回;C. continued继续;D. stopped停止。前面有although,表示这句话有转折的含义,所以应该与前文“陷入绝望”形成反差,应该是继续工作,所以用continue to。
25.B考查动词词义辨析。句意:她去看全科医生,然后全科医生把她介绍给我,看我能给她什么帮助。A. mentioned提及;B. referred参考,推荐;C. distributed分配;D. adjusted调整。固定搭配,refer sb. to sb. 表示“把……推荐给……”,这里意思是把Simone推荐给作者,与后文the referral letter相呼应。
26.B考查形容词词义辨析。句意:全科医生的推荐信建议我可以开一种合适的药,但可悲的事实是,没有一种药能让Simone的情况好转。A. limited有限的;B. sad悲伤的;C. ripe成熟的;D. global全球的。根据后文可知没有药物能够改善Simone的状况,a sad truth表示一个悲伤的事实。
27.C考查名词词义辨析。句意:她哭了,因为她被一个陌生人的善良感动了。A. disability残疾;B. poverty贫穷;C. kindness善良;D. suggestion建议。表示一个陌生人的善良/慷慨馈赠,与最后一行“kindness and generosity”相呼应。

四、语法填空
【语篇导读】:本文的语篇类型是说明文,主题语境为人与自然。本文主要介绍的是程阳风雨桥的相关情况。
29. shaped考查非谓语动词。句意:风雨桥是一种有屋顶的桥,桥上有长凳和亭子,形似宫殿。句中谓语是is,空格处用非谓语动词,A wind and rain bridge和shape之间是逻辑动宾关系,因此空格处用过去分词表被动。
30. to meet考查不定式。句意:它可以为人们遮风挡雨,让人们见面和休息。allow sb. to do sth.是固定短语,意为“允许某人做某事”。
31. whose考查定语从句。句意:程阳风雨桥的设计使其成为该类型的杰出典范,它有三层,包含五个亭子,两端有一个平台。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句,先行词The Chengyang Wind and Rain Bridge和design之间是所属关系,因此空格处用表所属的关系代词whose引导定语从句。
32. containing考查非谓语动词。句意:程阳风雨桥的设计使其成为该类型的杰出典范,它有三层,包含五个亭子,两端有一个平台。句中谓语是has,空格处用非谓语动词,three floor levels和contain之间是主谓关系,因此空格处用现在分词表主动。
33. height考查名词。句意:它长60多米,宽3米,高出河约10米。由空前的the和空后的about 10 meters可知,空格处用名词,表示“高度”,是height,是不可数名词。
34. with考查介词。句意:上层结构是精心设计的,每个石墩上都有塔楼。be designed with是固定短语,意为“被用……设计”。
35. entirely考查副词。句意:它几乎完全由木头建造,又长又宽的屋顶覆盖着漂亮的材料。空格处用副词entirely修饰动词made,entirely意为“完全”。
36. was constructed考查时态,语态和主谓一致。句意:这座桥也被称为程阳永济桥,是20世纪初由当地有才能的工人建造的,连接了河对岸的当地村庄。空格处是谓语,由by可知,用被动语态,由in the early 1900s可知,句子描述过去的事情,因此空格处是一般过去时的被动语态,主语The bridge是单数。
37. valuable/valued考查形容词。句意:他们用色彩鲜艳、栩栩如生的雕刻和绘画来装饰这座非常珍贵的桥。空格处用形容词作定语,修饰名词bridge,value的形容词是valuable/valued,意为“珍贵的”。
38. and考查连词。句意:他们用色彩鲜艳、栩栩如生雕刻和绘画来装饰这座非常珍贵的桥。carvings和paintings之间是并列关系,句子是肯定句。
