This is my son Matthew’s last night at home before college. I know that this is good news. I feel proud that Matthew will go to a great school. I know that this is his finest hour. But looking at the suitcases on his bed sends me out of the room to a hidden corner where I can’t stop crying.
Through the sorrow, I feel a rising embarrassment. “Pull yourself together!” I tell myself. There are parents sending their kids off to battle zones. How dare I feel so shattered
One of the great gifts of my life has been having my boys, Matthew and Johnowen. Through them, I have explored the mysterious, complicated bond between fathers and sons. As my wife and I raised them, I have discovered the love and loss between my father and me. After my parents’ divorce,I spent weekends with my dad in Ohio. By the time Sunday rolled around, I was unable to enjoy the day’s activities because I was already afraid of the goodbye of the evening.
Now, standing among Matthew’s accumulation of possessions, I realize it’s me who has become a boy again. All my sadness and longing to hold on to things are back, sweeping over me as they did when I was a child.
His bed is tidy and spare. It already has the feel of a guest bed. In my mind I replay wrapping him in his favorite blanket. That was our nightly routine until one evening he said, “Daddy, I don’t think I need a blanket tonight.” I think of all the times we lay among the covers reading. I look at the bed and think of all the recent times I was annoyed at how late he was sleeping. I’ll never have to worry about that again, I realize.
For his part, Matthew has been a rock. He is treating his leaving as just another day at the office. And I’m glad. After all, someone’s got to be strong. I’m proud that he is charging into the first chapter of his adult life with such confidence.
24. What is the probable meaning of the underlined phrase “Pull yourself together” in Paragraph 2
A. Take up B. Make up C. Cheer up D. show up
25. What can we infer about Matthew from the text
A. He is on good terms with his family.
B. He has a preference for sleeping early.
C. He doesn’t cherish his father’s love for him.
D. He is prepared for the new life.
26. How does the writer feel about his son’s leaving for college
A. Relieved B. Pleased C. Heartbroken D. Bittersweet
27. Which of the following can be the best title of the text
A. Unforgettable Memories B. Unavoidable Goodbye
C. Unconditional Love D. Glorious Moment
C
Saving Us: A Climate Scientist’s Case for Hope and Healing in a Divided World-Katherine Hayhoe’s new book, proposes to fight climate change through better communication. It is a follow-up to her awesome TED talk in 2018, when she declared the most important thing any individual can do to fight climate change is to talk about it.
Of many refreshing aspects of this book, one is that Hayhoe recounts both her successes and her failures to communicate, through which she has gathered evidence about what works and what does not. Much of the book’s ad vice is common sense, all backed up not just by Hayhoe’s experience but also with convincing research by psychologists and social scientists.
Hayhoe advises against trying to engage with a small minority, the “Dismissives”, who angrily reject the idea that human-caused climate change is a threat. Hayhoe pays special attention to Dismissives early on, noting that their aggressive posture online may create the impression that they’re everywhere. However, she argues, Dismissives account for only 7% of all American adults. The other 93% are more receptive by degree.
The book includes amusing examples of her encounters with the “Dismissives”, including an engineer who was unconvinced about the evidence but with whom she was able to establish mutual（相互的） respect through a shared passion for knitting（打毛线衣）. It is also packed with inspiring accounts of how she has won over even the crowds who are the most suspicious. Her motto is “bond, connect and inspire”, which represents her approach of always looking for points of common ground.
She also tells of a man who approached her after an event in London in 2019. Inspired by her TED talk, he had started to speak to everybody he could in his neighborhood of Wandsworth. He showed her details of 12,000 conversations that had taken place, claiming that they had helped to convince the council to declare a climate emergency and to switch investment s from fossil fuels to renewable energy.
And so, while it may feel difficult to influence the outcome of the COP26, Hayhoe’s uplifting book makes a persuasive case that we can all do our bit to bring about success just by talking about the issue.
28. What does the book mainly focus on
A. Explaining critical talking through literature.
B. Teaching communication skills with TED talks.
C. Sharpening people ’s insight into climate change.
D. Sharing communication - centered tips for climate problems.
29. Which of the following best describes the advice in the book
A. Well-based and workable. B. Accessible but one --sided.
C. Serious and challenging. D. Practical but unacknowledged.
30. How did Hayho e win over the “Dismissives”
A. By upgrading their social position.
B. By seeking shared interests or hobbies.
C. By changing their fundamental beliefs.
D. By offering more facts about climate change.
31. What does the author want to say by telling the story in paragraph 5
A. We should raise people ’s awareness of the climate crisis.
B. Turning to clean energy is inevitable.
C. Conversations have an impact on climate decision-making.
D. A shy man began to speak to everybody motivated by Hayhoe.
D
Out in the Atlantic Ocean, roughly 60 miles off the northwest coast of Africa, lie the Canary Islands. In the 1950s, the boom in package tourism showed promise as a new cash crop. But while the Canary Islands had the sunshine, warm climate and ease of access from Europe needed for this new industry, they were missing a vital element picture postcard sandy beaches.
So the developers on Tenerife in the Canary Islands constructed a breakwater（防波堤） over half a mile long. And then, from the Western Sahara on Africa’s northwest coast, they shipped in 270, 000 tons of sand. By 1973, the project was complete. As anticipated, tourists arrived. Along the engineered beach, rows and rows of tourists relax on beach chairs under umbrellas or walk across soft sand to cool down in the water.
Unanticipated was what their presence gave to one of the world’s most endangered fish species, angel sharks — visibility. The gentle wind creates tiny waves on the water’s surface, a magical cover for what lies beneath — an angel shark nursery. Female angelsharks regularly migrate to these ideally sheltered waters to give birth to pups（幼崽）, who remain in the shallows for about a year. Feeding on small fishes, they grow to around the same length as a newborn human baby.
Surveys have shown that other beaches in the Canary Islands are also potential nursery sites. Interestingly, most of them have been remade to make them more attractive to people. Playa Chica has another long sweep of imported sand. It’s an attraction for divers as well as angel sharks, so the number of sightings of mature angel sharks of this shoreline is one of highest in the islands.
Normally, massive, environmentally disruptive projects are bad for wildlife. But what’s clear is that after the breakwater was built and the sand arrived, people followed, and in the calm, shallow waters they began to see baby angel sharks. And unlike how many an association between humans and wildlife ends-in conflict and dead animals, this time it led to conservation.
32. Why did the developers on Tenerife carry out the project
A. To build a base for shipping. B. To boost the local tourism industry.
C. To fight against the rising sea. D. To protect the island’s eco-system.
33. What was an unexpected result of the project
A. It caused the disappearance of some fishes.
B. It made a magical tourist attraction.
C. It gave angel sharks a home.
D. It created conflicts between sharks and tourists.
34. What is the author’s attitude toward the engineered beach
A. Favorable. B. Doubtful. C. Unclear. D. Intolerant.
35. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A. To highlight the financial benefits of tourism.
B. To introduce potential human-wildlife coexistence.
C. To explain the situation of endangered species.
D. To emphasize the importance of wildlife conservation.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
I moved from America to Italy 14 years ago and I have learned a lot along the way. Here are several money-saving tricks I have picked up from living in Italy — most of which can apply to wherever you live too!
Buy fewer groceries at a time.
Italians tend to buy more fresh food—and buy it in smaller quantities. We have just what we know we’ll consume in a few days, before anything has a chance to spoil and go to waste. ______.
Eat seasonally.
I love strawberries, cantaloupe and watermelon, but in Italy, I can only get them in the summer, when they’re ripe. Out of season, these fruits would have to be imported. 37 Instead, enjoying them seasonally helps me appreciate them more.
38 Neither my husband nor I have developed any gardening skills just yet, but fortunately, his mother, uncles and cousins have, and they frequently leave bags of just-picked produce on our doorstep.
Cook more meals at home.
I live in a small town where we have no fast-food restaurants other than a pizzaria that does carry-out. OK! Not only do we save money on expensive restaurant meals, but we get more quality family time by cooking, eating and cleaning up together. 39
Yes, bigger cities have more options for fast food, delivery and carryout. 40 I’ve also found that Italians are more conscious of what’s in their food, so they tend to be less willing to make fast food more than an occasional meal.
A. Of course, it takes a little more meal planning.
B. We also end up having healthier meals.
C. Another way Italians save is by growing their own produce.
D. It takes a long time to transport goods from foreign countries.
E. McDonald’s plans to open 200 new restaurants and hire 12000 staff in Italy by 2025.
F They’d be a lot more expensive, of lesser quality and quite possibly grow n in an industrial greenhouse.
G. But even where the community is less closely connected, cooking and sharing meals with family and friends is still a big part of the social structure in Italy.

This is my son Matthew’s last night at home before college. I know that this is good news. I feel proud that Matthew will go to a great school. I know that this is his finest hour. But looking at the suitcases on his bed sends me out of the room to a hidden corner where I can’t stop crying.
Through the sorrow, I feel a rising embarrassment. “Pull yourself together!” I tell myself. There are parents sending their kids off to battle zones. How dare I feel so shattered
One of the great gifts of my life has been having my boys, Matthew and Johnowen. Through them, I have explored the mysterious, complicated bond between fathers and sons. As my wife and I raised them, I have discovered the love and loss between my father and me. After my parents’ divorce,I spent weekends with my dad in Ohio. By the time Sunday rolled around, I was unable to enjoy the day’s activities because I was already afraid of the goodbye of the evening.
Now, standing among Matthew’s accumulation of possessions, I realize it’s me who has become a boy again. All my sadness and longing to hold on to things are back, sweeping over me as they did when I was a child.
His bed is tidy and spare. It already has the feel of a guest bed. In my mind I replay wrapping him in his favorite blanket. That was our nightly routine until one evening he said, “Daddy, I don’t think I need a blanket tonight.” I think of all the times we lay among the covers reading. I look at the bed and think of all the recent times I was annoyed at how late he was sleeping. I’ll never have to worry about that again, I realize.
For his part, Matthew has been a rock. He is treating his leaving as just another day at the office. And I’m glad. After all, someone’s got to be strong. I’m proud that he is charging into the first chapter of his adult life with such confidence.
24. What is the probable meaning of the underlined phrase “Pull yourself together” in Paragraph 2

25. What can we infer about Matthew from the text

B. He has a preference for sleeping early.

D. He is prepared for the new life.
26. How does the writer feel about his son’s leaving for college

27. Which of the following can be the best title of the text
A. Unforgettable Memories B. Unavoidable Goodbye

Saving Us: A Climate Scientist’s Case for Hope and Healing in a Divided World-Katherine Hayhoe’s new book, proposes to fight climate change through better communication. It is a follow-up to her awesome TED talk in 2018, when she declared the most important thing any individual can do to fight climate change is to talk about it.
Of many refreshing aspects of this book, one is that Hayhoe recounts both her successes and her failures to communicate, through which she has gathered evidence about what works and what does not. Much of the book’s ad vice is common sense, all backed up not just by Hayhoe’s experience but also with convincing research by psychologists and social scientists.
Hayhoe advises against trying to engage with a small minority, the “Dismissives”, who angrily reject the idea that human-caused climate change is a threat. Hayhoe pays special attention to Dismissives early on, noting that their aggressive posture online may create the impression that they’re everywhere. However, she argues, Dismissives account for only 7% of all American adults. The other 93% are more receptive by degree.
The book includes amusing examples of her encounters with the “Dismissives”, including an engineer who was unconvinced about the evidence but with whom she was able to establish mutual（相互的） respect through a shared passion for knitting（打毛线衣）. It is also packed with inspiring accounts of how she has won over even the crowds who are the most suspicious. Her motto is “bond, connect and inspire”, which represents her approach of always looking for points of common ground.
She also tells of a man who approached her after an event in London in 2019. Inspired by her TED talk, he had started to speak to everybody he could in his neighborhood of Wandsworth. He showed her details of 12,000 conversations that had taken place, claiming that they had helped to convince the council to declare a climate emergency and to switch investment s from fossil fuels to renewable energy.
And so, while it may feel difficult to influence the outcome of the COP26, Hayhoe’s uplifting book makes a persuasive case that we can all do our bit to bring about success just by talking about the issue.
28. What does the book mainly focus on
A. Explaining critical talking through literature.
B. Teaching communication skills with TED talks.
C. Sharpening people ’s insight into climate change.
D. Sharing communication - centered tips for climate problems.
29. Which of the following best describes the advice in the book
A. Well-based and workable. B. Accessible but one --sided.
C. Serious and challenging. D. Practical but unacknowledged.
30. How did Hayho e win over the “Dismissives”
A. By upgrading their social position.
B. By seeking shared interests or hobbies.
C. By changing their fundamental beliefs.
D. By offering more facts about climate change.
31. What does the author want to say by telling the story in paragraph 5
A. We should raise people ’s awareness of the climate crisis.
B. Turning to clean energy is inevitable.
C. Conversations have an impact on climate decision-making.
D. A shy man began to speak to everybody motivated by Hayhoe.
D
Out in the Atlantic Ocean, roughly 60 miles off the northwest coast of Africa, lie the Canary Islands. In the 1950s, the boom in package tourism showed promise as a new cash crop. But while the Canary Islands had the sunshine, warm climate and ease of access from Europe needed for this new industry, they were missing a vital element picture postcard sandy beaches.
So the developers on Tenerife in the Canary Islands constructed a breakwater（防波堤） over half a mile long. And then, from the Western Sahara on Africa’s northwest coast, they shipped in 270, 000 tons of sand. By 1973, the project was complete. As anticipated, tourists arrived. Along the engineered beach, rows and rows of tourists relax on beach chairs under umbrellas or walk across soft sand to cool down in the water.
Unanticipated was what their presence gave to one of the world’s most endangered fish species, angel sharks — visibility. The gentle wind creates tiny waves on the water’s surface, a magical cover for what lies beneath — an angel shark nursery. Female angelsharks regularly migrate to these ideally sheltered waters to give birth to pups（幼崽）, who remain in the shallows for about a year. Feeding on small fishes, they grow to around the same length as a newborn human baby.
Surveys have shown that other beaches in the Canary Islands are also potential nursery sites. Interestingly, most of them have been remade to make them more attractive to people. Playa Chica has another long sweep of imported sand. It’s an attraction for divers as well as angel sharks, so the number of sightings of mature angel sharks of this shoreline is one of highest in the islands.
Normally, massive, environmentally disruptive projects are bad for wildlife. But what’s clear is that after the breakwater was built and the sand arrived, people followed, and in the calm, shallow waters they began to see baby angel sharks. And unlike how many an association between humans and wildlife ends-in conflict and dead animals, this time it led to conservation.
32. Why did the developers on Tenerife carry out the project
A. To build a base for shipping. B. To boost the local tourism industry.
C. To fight against the rising sea. D. To protect the island’s eco-system.
33. What was an unexpected result of the project
A. It caused the disappearance of some fishes.
B. It made a magical tourist attraction.
C. It gave angel sharks a home.
D. It created conflicts between sharks and tourists.
34. What is the author’s attitude toward the engineered beach
A. Favorable. B. Doubtful. C. Unclear. D. Intolerant.
35. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A. To highlight the financial benefits of tourism.
B. To introduce potential human-wildlife coexistence.
C. To explain the situation of endangered species.
D. To emphasize the importance of wildlife conservation.

I moved from America to Italy 14 years ago and I have learned a lot along the way. Here are several money-saving tricks I have picked up from living in Italy — most of which can apply to wherever you live too!
Buy fewer groceries at a time.
Italians tend to buy more fresh food—and buy it in smaller quantities. We have just what we know we’ll consume in a few days, before anything has a chance to spoil and go to waste. ______.
Eat seasonally.
I love strawberries, cantaloupe and watermelon, but in Italy, I can only get them in the summer, when they’re ripe. Out of season, these fruits would have to be imported. 37 Instead, enjoying them seasonally helps me appreciate them more.
38 Neither my husband nor I have developed any gardening skills just yet, but fortunately, his mother, uncles and cousins have, and they frequently leave bags of just-picked produce on our doorstep.
Cook more meals at home.
I live in a small town where we have no fast-food restaurants other than a pizzaria that does carry-out. OK! Not only do we save money on expensive restaurant meals, but we get more quality family time by cooking, eating and cleaning up together. 39
Yes, bigger cities have more options for fast food, delivery and carryout. 40 I’ve also found that Italians are more conscious of what’s in their food, so they tend to be less willing to make fast food more than an occasional meal.
A. Of course, it takes a little more meal planning.
B. We also end up having healthier meals.
C. Another way Italians save is by growing their own produce.
D. It takes a long time to transport goods from foreign countries.
E. McDonald’s plans to open 200 new restaurants and hire 12000 staff in Italy by 2025.
F They’d be a lot more expensive, of lesser quality and quite possibly grow n in an industrial greenhouse.
G. But even where the community is less closely connected, cooking and sharing meals with family and friends is still a big part of the social structure in Italy.
