I’m a girl in my late twenties and I live in New York. I go from my 8-hour-a-day full-time job to my part-time job, where I work for at least 4 hours if I'm lucky. I have half an hour to get from one job to the next, and I spend that time driving to the job, changing into my uniform, and eating if I have time. Even on weekends, I work anywhere from 4-9 hours per day at my part-time job.
Every time I hang out with my friends or family, I’m never fully present. I’m either exhausted (精疲力竭的) or worried about my work. And when I’m with my family, everyone says that I work too much and should pay attention to my health. While I always argue that working hard is extremely valuable and admirable, I also believe that we all need to stop and smell the roses. Throughout the chaos (混乱) of my busy life, however, I’ve forgotten to do just that. Work has kept me so busy that I’ve missed everything that’s right in front of me.
Now, I’m making an effort to be present. I leave my phone in my purse when I’m with my friends and only take it out to take a few pictures. Sometimes, I go to a concert, watch movies or take a holiday to treat myself. I visit friends I haven’t seen for a while or try to call them, so we can talk for hours and catch up. And I make an effort to spend time with loved ones who I know won’t be around forever and I get to know the younger ones. Right now, I’m learning to do everything that makes me happy. I’m completely not guilty about my work-life balance because I know that enjoying life is truly worth my time.

31. What would be the best title for the text

C. Stopping feeling guilty about work D. Making use of every day to the fullest
D
A study from the University of Montreal and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, published in Frontiers in Medicine, found that regular virtual visits to museums could help seniors stay mentally active and come with a host of additional health benefits. That’s because these digital connections can make retirees feel less lonely and isolated (孤立的).
Social isolation has been associated with the risks for heart disease and the decline of recognition abilities in seniors and the pandemic (疫情) increased the risks due to the need for seniors to stay home and isolate, according to a press release from the university.
The researchers investigated the potential benefits of weekly virtual visits for a three-month period. The participants were people aged 65 and older who lived in Montreal. Half of the participants took part in online visits and a discussion afterwards, while the control group did not participate in any cultural events at all. The group who participated in the virtual visits showed improvements in their quality of life. “Our study showed that art-based activities may be an effective intervention,” lead author Dr. Olivier Beauchet, a professor at the University of Montreal, said in the press release. “On a global scale, this participatory art-based activity could become a model that could be offered in museums and arts institutions worldwide to promote active and healthy aging.”
The initiative reflects approaches recommended by the World Health Organization to manage certain diseases, according to Beauchet. For instance, the WHO launched the Aging and Health Program in 2015 that included using community-based organizations to promote culture as a key component of improving health. Traditionally, these sorts of preventive health activities have taken place in schools, community centers, and workplaces. “While these are suitable locations that reach a great number of people, there are additional organizations and sectors that could become partners in public health research and practice development,” Beauchet said. “Museums are among such potential partners. They are aware of the needs of their communities and are consequently expanding the types of activities they offer.”
32. How do seniors benefit from regular virtual visits to museums
A. They get survival skills. B. They raise interest in art.
C. They improve quality of life. D. They connect more with family.
33. What can be inferred from Beauchet’s words in Paragraph 3
A. Participants come from the whole world. B. The museum needs better cultural events.
C. Face-to-face discussion is a useful intervention. D. Seniors should attend more art-based activities.
34. What is the purpose of the last paragraph
A. To advocate. B. To entertain. C. To advertise. D. To warn.
35. Which may be a suitable title for the text
A. The Aged Form a Community to Reduce Loneliness
B. Virtual Art-based Activities Bring People Together
C. Online Museum Trips Improve Seniors’ Well being
D. Retired Individuals Pay More Visits to Museums

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
47. 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。
Alvin Bamburg, 66, was deep in the woods in Grand Cane, Louisiana, last December when something caught his eye. Twisted in a fallen tree, it looked like litter. As Alvin approached, he saw that the object was a broken balloon. Attached was a piece of paper decorated with sparkly star stickers. It was a child’s Christmas wish list.
“Dear Santa,” the handwritten note read. “My name is Luna. I am four years old. I live in Liberal, Kansas. This year I have been nice. I would like candy, Spider-Man ball, Frozen doll, puppy. With love, Luna.”
Alvin’s heart hammered in his chest. Ever since he was a child, he had dreamed of this very scenario. He believed this was his childhood wish coming true. And he decided to make Luna’s wish come true too. Given the distance of more than 650 miles from Grand Cane to Liberal, Alvin followed the advice from his wife, Lee Ann Bamburg, and posted a photo of the balloon and the Christmas list on his Facebook page, asking for help locating the sender.
Meanwhile, Leticia Flores-Gonzalez, the mother of four-year-old Luna and her twin sister, Gianella, had no idea that such an effort was underway. It had been a hard year for Leticia and her girls. As COVID-19 spread, the family felt lonely, scared, and isolated, with no relatives living nearby.
On a particularly tough day last December, Leticia had come up with the idea of having the girls send letters to Santa by balloon. She told them that Santa would grab the balloons while he flew through the air on his sled. The twins were excited. Leticia helped them write down all the things that they dreamed Santa might bring them, and put the notes into Christmas red balloons. Then she took them outside to release their wishes to the universe on the chilly windy morning.
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
One day in January, a friend called Leticia and said, “Someone found Luna’s balloon.”
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
In April, Alvin and his wife made a trip to meet the girls.

【答案】Dear John,
I am awfully delighted to learn that you are keen on Chinese Tea Art and in your last letter. You asked me to inform you of some details about my favorite optional course, Chinese Tea Art. Now I am writing to tell you something.
As you know, Chinese Tea Art is my favorite optional course, which I think represents the outstanding traditional Chinese culture. The class consists of one lecture given by a local tea specialist and one activity concerning the skills of making wonderful tea and then serving it. It provides us with a good opportunity to have a better command of traditional Chinese culture.
Chinese Tea Art benefits me a lot, deepening my understanding of traditional Chinese culture and making my school life more colorful.
Yours
Li Hua
续写
One day in January, a friend called Leticia and said, “Someone found Luna’s balloon.” Her jaw dropped. At her friends urging, Leticia logged on to Facebook and saw Alvin’s post. Then she saw that people from all over were asking if they, too, could be part of fulfilling the wish list. Leticia was deeply touched and gave Alvin a call. When Alvin told her how much it would mean to him to grant the girls’ wishes, she agreed to let him bring them some gifts. Back in Louisiana, Alvin got busy collecting toys from his newfound Facebook community.
In April, Alvin and his wife made a trip to meet the girls. That morning, just as chilly and windy as the day Luna and Gianella waved goodbye to their balloons, Alvin got out of the car in front of their house. He presented all the gifts to the twins, including a puppy. The girls cried with delight. Later, both families sat down together to share homemade breakfast. They all felt as if they had known each other forever. Having received so much generosity, Leticia and her girls expressed their gratitude and intended to pay it forward.
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“一月的一天，一位朋友给莱蒂西亚打电话说：有人发现了卢娜的气球。”可知，第一段可描写作者和朋友发现小女孩的圣诞节礼物清单的过程，以及他们为小女孩准备礼物的过程。
②由第二段首句内容“四月，阿尔文和他的妻子去见了女孩们。”可知，第二段可描写作者和妻子一起去给小女孩送圣诞节礼物，以及小女孩的惊喜和感动。
2.续写线索：发现气球——回忆——发布照片——找到主人——准备礼物——送礼物
