推广的一大难题。)” 由此可知 it 指代上文的当地农民从不种植大豆，故填 C。
26. D 推理判断题。根据第四段“By 2020, the planting area of the three approved
soybeans in Gansu had gone beyond 2.4 million square kilometers, covering 46 of the
province’s 80-plus counties, and the output had reached 7.71 million kilograms,
adding about 30 million yuan to local farmers’ income.(截至 2020年，三批大豆在甘
肃的种植面积 超过 240 万平方公里，覆盖全省 80多个县中的 46个，产量达到
{#{QQABJQiUggigApBAAQgCQwWACECQkACCAYgGAAAMIAIBgRFABAA=}#}
771万公斤，为当地农民增加收入约 3000 万元。)” 可知当地大豆产量提高了，
农民增加了收入，因此两位科学家成功了，故选 D。
27. B 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Zhang said that Professor Lam’s contribution has
greatly pushed the poorness relief and agricultural research in Northwest China. “It is
hard to keep doing agricultural research with less funding. And it is more difficult to
travel from Hong Kong to the poor areas of the Northwest to do agricultural research,”
he added. In the future, Lan will continue to work with mainland scientists and lead
more “Hong Kong power” into the development of the country’s Northwest. (张国宏
说，林教授的贡献极大地推动了中国西北地区的扶贫和农业研究。“在资金减少
的情况下，很难继续进行农业研究。从香港到西北的贫困地区做农业研究更加困
难。”未来，林教授将继续与内 地科学家合作，带领更多“香港力量”参与中国西
北地区的开发。)”可推测出林汉明具有奉献精神，故选 B。

想试一试。因此，画线词应意为“新手”。green hand意为“新手”；master意
为“大师”：enthusiast意为“爱好者”;instructor意为“教练，导师”。故选 A。
31.B推理判断题。通读全文尤其是倒数第二段内容可知，有许多像“科学姥姥”
吴於人那样的网红老人，比如阿木爷爷能把普通的木头变成精制的物品，陕西的
乔爷爷会教人们制作当地的美食。由此可推知，这些老年网红有创意且热爱生活。

—is the one who is most able to empathize.（在情商同等的人当中，真正经历过最

Last Friday, our school held an English drama festival, aiming to provide us
students with access to the magical world of English literature and equip us with the
ability to appreciate its literary charm. About 500 students from all grades participated
in it.
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the host and the hostess addressed a few
introductory remarks to the audience and then the performance began. As scheduled，
we put on a variety of performances, including English dramas, dubbing, reciting
{#{QQABJQiUggigApBAAQgCQwWACECQkACCAYgGAAAMIAIBgRFABAA=}#}
English poems with music. The thunderous applause filled every corner of the hall.

Paragraph 1: First, he made advertisements.Then, he put them up in the
neighborhood. Attracted, some parents invited him home. After an interview, they
were content with Andy's teaching ability and hired him. Thus, Andy's schedule
became so tight that he often didn't get home until dinnertime. Andy kept it a secret
from his mom. Finally, he was amazed he earned enough money. He immediately
bought a hearing aid for his mother and studied the instructions.
Paragraph 2: One morning when Mary was still sleeping soundly, Andy put the
hearing aid in her ear. Mary awakened to the sounds of birds' singing and car horns.
"Morning, Mom," Andy said. Mary turned, finding Andy was sitting nearby, smiling.
“Is there a hearing aid " she asked in disbelief. Andy nodded and asked.“How does
it feel " Mary replied that it was incredible, with tears rolling down her cheeks. She
was relieved that her son loved her so much.

W: Good morning, everyone. Today I’d like to tell you about a movie I watched recently. I didn’t
go to the cinema. Instead I watched it in my own bedroom because the movie is on Disney+ as
a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The movie is about an unlikely but strong friendship. It is
set in a beautiful town near the sea on the Italian Riviera. In the town there lives one young boy
called Luka. Every summer, he loves going outdoors for adventure. One day, he makes friends
with a boy he has never seen before. Luka shares his adventures with his new best friend.
However, all the fun is threatened by a secret. His new friend isn’t a real person. He is a sea
creature from another world just below the water’s surface. If you want to find out what
happens to the two friends in the end, you can watch it sometime. That’s all about the movie.
Thank you.

Since 1998, Lam’s team has been cooperating with scientists in Chinese mainland. In 2010, he came across Zhang Guohong, an agricultural expert from Gansu, China, at a national soybean conference (会议). With the same major, they hit it off and decided to improve farmers’ lives and promote local agriculture.
Farmers in Gansu depend largely on the weather for their livelihood, mainly on rainfall, which is also a cause of severe poorness in the area. In 2016, they developed three new soybean varieties suited to salty soil and rare rainfall of Northwest China. All received official government approval (批准).
As the land in Northwest China is not suitable for the growth of common varieties of soybeans, local farmers never planted soybeans, and it became a major problem for spreading new soybeans. Lam and Zhang increased communication with farmers through various ways. To ensure farmers’ income, Lam struck a partnership with a Hong Kong food company that will buy all soybeans at market price when they are harvested.
By 2020, the planting area of the three approved soybeans in Gansu had gone beyond 2.4 million square kilometers, covering 46 of the province’s 80-plus counties, and the output had reached 7.71 million kilograms, adding about 30 million yuan to local farmers’ income.
Zhang said that Professor Lam’s contribution has greatly pushed the poorness relief and agricultural research in Northwest China. “It is hard to keep doing agricultural research with less funding. And it is more difficult to travel from Hong Kong to the poor areas of the Northwest to do agricultural research,” he added. In the future, Lan will continue to work with mainland scientists and lead more “Hong Kong power” into the development of the country’s Northwest.

A 72-year-old Chinese retired physics professor becomes an Internet celebrity. In her short videos, Wu Yuren often uses everyday objects like eggs and coins as props for her experiments. In one video for example, when explaining cosmic rays in space. she grabbed a broom, ran her hand down the broomstick to the thin brush attached, to illustrate how the energy of the rays gradually weakens and disperses.

To show empathy (共情) is to identify with another’s feelings. It is to emotionally put yourself in the place at another. The ability to empathize is directly dependent on your ability to feel your own feelings and identify them.
If you have never felt a certain feeling, it will be hard for you to understand how another person is feeling. If you have never put your hand in a flame, you will not know the pain of fire. If you have not experienced jealousy (妒嫉), you will not understand its power. Reading about a feeling and intellectually knowing about it is very different than actually experiencing it for yourself.
Among those with an equal level of emotional intelligence, the person who has actually experienced the widest range and variety of feelings—the great depths of depression and the heights of fulfillment, for example— is the one who is most able to empathize. On the other hand, when we say that someone “can’t relate to” other people, it is likely because they haven’t experienced, acknowledged or accepted many feelings of their own. Once you have felt discriminated (歧视) against, for example, it is much easier to relate with someone else who has been discriminated against. Our innate emotional intelligence gives us the ability to quickly recall those instances and form associations when we encounter discrimination again. We then can use the “reliving” of those emotions to guide our thinking and actions. This is one of the ways nature slowly evolves towards a higher level of survival.
For this process to work, the first step is that we must be able to experience our own emotions. This means we must be open to them and not distract ourselves from them or try to numb (使麻木) ourselves from our feelings through drugs, alcohol, etc.
Next, we need to become aware of what we are actually feeling—to acknowledge, identify, and accept our feelings. Only then can we empathize with others. That is one reason why it is important to work on your own emotional awareness and sensitivity—in other words, to be “in touch with” your feelings.
32. How does the author explain the feelings of empathy
A. By giving examples. B. By having classification.
C. By making comparison. D. By providing data.
33. Which statement may the author agree with
A. Low level of empathy leads to fewer varieties of feelings.
B. The deeper one’s feelings are, the more empathetic one is.
C. Empathy is a way we recently picked up for better survival.
D. Rich experiences of emotions may go with a high level of empathy.
34. What’s the purpose of the last two paragraphs
A. To advise a sincere attitude to one’s experiences.
B. To suggest a right understanding of empathy.
C. To recommend sensing and recognizing one’s emotions.
D. To call for true acceptance of one’s identity.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. How Empathy Unfolds B. Be Open to Your Emotions
C. Why Is Empathy Important D. Accept Your True Self

Mary and her little son Andy lived alone and led a hard life. They didn't have much, but there was always food on the table—for Andy, at least.
To support the family, Mary did three jobs. It was tiring, but Mary didn't give up. Each day when she finally got home, she'd bring Andy home from a kind neighbor, who attended to her boy for hours daily. Years later when Andy was 15, Mary was still working hard. One morning she crazily looked for the house keys, worried about getting late for work. She had a long day ahead, but she didn't even make it to her house's front door. She tried to move the sofa to see if the keys had fallen behind it. At the time, Andy was preparing to go to school.
Suddenly, Mary fell due to long-term lack of sleep. And when she fell, her head hit the sofa's edge, which caused her to faint immediately. So worried, Andy did everything he could to help his mom. Finally, he took her to hospital.
Hours later, Mary woke up, noticing Andy's hand on her shoulder. The doctor brought her document for her to read. She soon knew why she was in hospital. And she knew the fall had reduced her sense of hearing to 20%. Mary couldn't help crying." What am I going to do now " she thought as she looked at Andy. With tears in eyes, Andy said, “I love you, Mom!" And it saddened them both again because Mary could barely hear Andy's words.
The doctor recommended wearing a hearing aid. It was a very expensive device." Who has that kind of money " Mary thought, feeling upset and hopeless.
But Andy wasn't. "Mom has taken good care of me for years. It's high time that I did something to try to repay her," Andy thought. He was determined to take a part-time job to earn the money for the hearing aid. Since his academic performance was very good, he decided to work as a tutor(家教) for junior kids.
