Technology has undoubtedly opened up the world for me. Literally, in the case of my fully accessible home. My windows are automatic, and my front door is automatic too. There are also my wheelchairs. I guess that any wheelchair user will say the best invention is that of the wheel. It’s a tool bringing independence and comfort.
Last week, I took a well-deserved break from work and went on a staycation in my local area. On the first day, I was heading further out in my power wheelchair than I’ve ever been on my own. This chair is almost like a Transformer. I like the speed, the phone charger and the flexible feature. It’s a wonderful creation.
However, while there are many benefits that come with technology, I still live in a disabling world. For example, out in my power wheelchair that day, feeling free and easy, I headed straight to the shop not far away. I deserve to feel heard and included when innovation is concerned. But when I got there, I was confronted by self-service checkouts. While they are designed for easy and quick service, for me and many other disabled people, the lack of face-to-face services can put us at a disadvantage. Not only are the checkouts far too high, they are awkwardly designed so that you cannot approach them with a wheelchair. So, I waited for someone to assist me. In just a matter of a few hours, I had seen how technology and accessibility advancements have empowered me then, in the next breath, disabled me.
I still live in a disabling world with sub-standard accessibility. Therefore, disabled people by and large are more likely to rely on mechanical and technological devices such as lifts and communication aids. Unfortunately, these things are sometimes abused and mistreated, making the person relying on them dependent on others.
24. How does the author think of technology according to paragraphs 1 and 2
A. He casts some doubts on it.
B. He shows much gratitude for it.
C. He expresses curiosity about it.
D. He feels really carefree with it.
25. What happened to the author in the shop
A. He came across many other disabled people by chance.
B. He waited quite a few hours in order to check out.
C. He was unable to seek assistance from others.
D. He couldn’t use the self-service checkout by himself.
26. Why does the author say he still lives in a disabling world
A. He thinks it is not easy to make his voice heard.
B. Some shops are inaccessible to wheelchair users.
C. He finds it really hard to fit in with non-disabled people.
D Things related to technology are sometimes out of service.
27. What would be the best title for the text
A. My different views concerning disability
B. How I make full advantage of technology
C. My love-hate relationship with technology
D. How I live independently as a disabled man
C
Over the past months, terrible things have occurred around the world: the ground under the German town of Erftstadt is torn apart by flood waters; Lytton in British Columbia is burned from the map just a day after setting an extremely high temperature record; cars float like dead fish through the streets-turned-canals in the Chinese city of Zhengzhou. All the world feels at risk and there seem no safe places to hide. Research has found that all these have something to do with greenhouse-gas emission (排放), which has produced a planet more than 1℃ (1.8°F) warmer than the 18th century.
With emissions continuing, it will get worse. If temperatures rise by 3℃ in the coming decades, large parts of the tropics (热带地区) risk becoming too hot for outdoor work. Coral reefs and the sea life depending on them will disappear and so will the Amazon rainforest. Severe harvest failures will be common. Ice sheets in Antarctica and Greenland will shrink (收缩) past the point of no return, promising sea rises measured not in millimetres, as today’s are, but in metres.
Some cautious adaptations have been put into effect. However, cutting emissions alone is far from enough. it’s also wise to study the most amazing form of adaptation: solar geoengineering.
Research over the past 15 years has suggested that solar geoengineering might significantly reduce some of the harms from greenhouse warming. It seeks to make clouds or particle layers (粒子层) in the atmosphere a bit more mirror-like. reflecting away some sunlight. It cannot provide a straightforward equal and opposite response to greenhouse gas warming; it will tend, for example. to reduce precipitation (降水) more than temperature, potentially changing rainfall patterns to ease the problem of global warming.
28. What does the underlined “these” refer to in Paragraph 1
A. The severe risks the world is facing.
B. The terrible floods the earth is experiencing.
C. The extreme weather the planet is undergoing.
D. The unsafe places the emission has created.
29. How does the author explain the consequences of the emission in Paragraph 2
A. By listing examples. B. By using figures.
C. By asking questions. D. By making comparisons.
30. What do we know about solar geoengineering
A. It will change the global temperature patterns.
B. It may cut greenhouse gas emissions significantly.
C. It will provide a direct response to global temperature.
D. It may prevent sunlight from reaching the earth directly.
31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. Global warming—bad news for the world.
B. Cautious Adaptations—good news for the world.
C. Solar Geoengineering—new solutions to global warming.
D. Greenhouse gas emission—familiar problems with global warming.
D
What’s your favorite kind of film For many people who love being terrified, or scared out of their wits, that answer will be horror. It seems that scary movies have a way of drawing a lot of people in and suit their taste. But just why do people enjoy watching these terrifying films
First of all, being scared can give us a rush of adrenaline (肾上腺素). The heart starts pumping, making these films exhilarating. But the fact that you’re actually at home safe on the sofa makes the experience of being frightened all the more enjoyable because what’s happening to the characters on the screen is far removed from your experience of being in your living room eating popcorn. It feels more thrilling.
Coltan Scrivner, a PhD candidate in the Department of Comparative Human Development at the University of Chicago, argues that people who watch horror films learn how to regulate their anxiety. A study that he coauthored found that horror fans exhibited greater resilience (韧性) during the early stages on the COVID-19 pandemic than those who didn’t.
Also, some horror fans think they could survive the events on screen. That gives those viewers a sense of superiority. We often tease the typical image of horror films. Why do they try to escape the masked killer by running upstairs and hiding themselves The characters often make terrible decisions that lead to their deaths—decisions we as viewers believe we wouldn’t make.
So, whether it’s to help people regulate their anxiety, to be thrilled by getting scared, or to feel superior teasing the decisions of the characters, there are many reasons people love watching horror films and if they really scare you, maybe it’s best to watch them with the lights on.
32. The question at the end of Paragraph 1 is used to__________.
A. express the author’s doubt B. introduce the point for discussion
C. enrich the content of the passage D. expect an answer from readers
33. What does the underlined word “exhilarating” in Paragraph 2 mean
A. Upsetting. B. Inspiring.
C. Amusing. D. Thrilling.
34. What can we learn from the passage
A Horror fans are more anxious facing unfavourable situation.
B. Heart attacks are more likely to happen to horror fans.
C Viewers are superior to characters in horror films.
D. The scenes in horror films are very different from reality.
35. What’s the author attitude towards watching horror films
A. Cautious B. Critical
C. Objective D. Indifferent

Picture yourself sitting at home in a quiet reading corner, ignoring the world around you, lost in a tale.

With sunlight flooding through the window, I was sitting at the kitchen table, enjoying the breakfast with my son, our cat, Rosie, rubbing itself against my son’s legs from time to time. After assigning my son what he would do in the morning, I also engaged myself in my work. However, within only minutes I could hear my son jumping around and laughing, doing who-knows-what but certainly not his schoolwork. “Stop playing and get your schoolwork done!” I yelled from my room where I was working. There was complete quiet for a while, and then the noise started up again.
“What are you doing I shouted.” You know you can’t have a break until the schoolwork is done!” As a single mom working from home and home-schooling my son, I had to finish my work each day and help my son gain knowledge and form a good learning habit.
“Rosie stole my pencil, Mommy! I can’t do my schoolwork!” The response came in a voice that sounded as though he surely didn’t mind having a pencil stolen. With a sigh, I pulled myself away from work and entered my son’s room. There I saw our cat, Rosie, sitting on the desk with the pencil between her feet. She threw it and bit it, and then sat right on my son’s books. I walked up to the desk and removed her from it.
This had become the norm. Rosie often disturbed my son. They were good friends and my son never minded Rosie disturbing him. Each time Rosie caused trouble, I wanted to lock her inside the bathroom. But when seeing how my lonely son, who was shy, homeschooled and had few friends, enjoyed Rosie’s company, I abandoned the idea.
That day, I finally made a rule after trying to remove Rosie from the desk for the millionth time. “If you focus on your work and don’t let her distract you, she can stay on the desk. Otherwise, I’ll lock her in the bathroom,” I told my son. Then I moved Rosie off his books and onto the side of the desk, making her lie down.
注意:

【答案】One possible version:
Happy Class Break
Students in Senior Three are faced with great pressure with the approach of the National College Entrance Examination. So our school organized all students of this grade to participate in fun recess activities to release their pressure.
A wide variety of interesting games were scheduled for every break. Every corner of the campus was used for students to play games. The most impressive ones were the relay, tug of war and rope skipping.
All the students involved were immersed in them, admitting that they felt refreshed and relaxed. They hope such activities can continue in the following days.
【答案】Paragraph 1:
“Stay there!” I ordered, and then returned to my room. However, my son’s laughter came not much later again, and I couldn’t focus on my work. I knew my son wasn’t studying, either. Should I follow the rule After much thinking, I walked into my son’s room with a serious look and reminded him of the previous rule that he could only play with Rosie after finishing schoolwork. He lowered his head in tears and remained silent. Without hesitation, I brought Rosie out of his room.
Paragraph 2:
Once I put Rosie into the bathroom and closed the door, she started to miaow loudly. Then my son suddenly burst into crying, which made me heartbroken. I hurried to his room, wrapped my arms around his tiny body and offered to read him a story. To my relief, his cry gradually turned into laughing. Then I explained to him why I did that with patience. He nodded understandingly and agreed to continue his schoolwork, eyes twinkling with joy. Since then, he has adapted to the new rule and formed a good learning habit.
