Roger Conner is a modern-day Horatio Alger hero. Roger started out as an unpaid worker in a small flower shop. He has become the owner of a florist company whose sales are well over $100,000 a year.
One day when Roger was only twelve, he stopped at a local flower shop. He asked the owner if he could work for him, without pay, in order to learn the business. Roger started working every day after school and on weekends. After two years on the job, he finally asked for a small salary. The owners told him he wasn’t good enough to be paid. "So he quit, and found a paying job at another local flower shop. He worked hard there, but after six months they laid him off because business was slow. Not discouraged, Roger decided to do it alone and started his own flower store in a basement. He started his business with only sixty-five dollars. He bought old refrigerators at garage sales and knocked the shelves out. This turned them into coolers for his fresh-cut flowers. His business grew rapidly as he built up a reputation for top quality and fine service.
In 1977, Roger bought out the flower store where he had worked without pay for over two years. The people who said he “wasn’t good enough” were astonished to find that they were being taken over by a teenager. He had plans to renovate (整个) the whole store.
One of the reasons the owners sold out to Roger was that the store wasn’t doing well. But after Roger took over ownership and redid the store, business started booming. In fact, business was so good that after one year, he celebrated by buying out the other store where he had worked. Roger then combined both stores and moved to a location in the center of his town.
The new store has 2,000 square feet and seven employees. And he did it all before he reached the age of twenty.
56. The author is most eager to show that people who want to get ahead in business should ________.
A. work without pay B. own a flower shop
C. work hard and be persistent D. work as teenagers

B. He was a very brave and tricky young man.
C. He worked hard without pay in a flower shop in order to get to know the business.

It is sometimes jokingly said that you may skip a meal a day without any adverse effect but skip using your WeChat for an hour and you will feel distinctly unwell. It is an acknowledgement of the fact that the app is no longer only a fun tool but an essential part of life for millions.
Launched in January 2011, this messaging, social media and mobile payment app today has more than 1 billion individual users. People use it for everything, from applying for a business license to booking a hospital appointment to keeping up with family and friends, shopping and paying bills—activities that are part and parcel of our everyday life.
When it was first introduced, WeChat was only an app supporting voice, video, picture and text messages between two persons or among a group. But today it has become ubiquitous.
In the past, people carried their wallet and keys with them wherever they went; today, a smart phone with WeChat installed is all they need in daily life. Its functions like Moments and mini programs and the official WeChat accounts of government agencies and companies have made communication and public services accessible and convenient like never before.
WeChat is also widely used by enterprises. Figures from Tencent show there are around 15 million WeChat official accounts, which enjoy 5 billion followers. Most businesses use their WeChat groups as a standard marketing kit. This has immensely reduced advertising, marketing and communication costs, and in the background of the novel coronavirus disease, made operations faster, contactless and safe.
However, there are concerns about the downsides of WeChat, such as addiction among primary school children. Equally serious is the misuse of WeChat for fraud or instigating crimes. However, it has to be kept in mind that these fallouts are not really the fault of WeChat, but due to the misuse of the app.
If we learn to temper our use of messaging apps with prudence and pragmatism, we could be looking forward to yet new conveniences and experience in this decade with the rapid development of 5G technology and artificial intelligence. Ultimately, the choice is ours, whether to use WeChat or any other new invention, wisely or wantonly.
61. We can conclude from the first paragraph that ________.
A. we can easily skip a meal a day.
B. we will be ill by not using WeChat.
C. WeChat used to be meant for fun.
D. WeChat has become inseparable in daily life.
62. The underlined word “ubiquitous” in Paragraph 3 probably has the same meaning as ________.
A. everywhere. B. somewhere. C. nowhere. D. wherever.
63. For what reasons do the government agencies choose to use WeChat
A. WeChat has a mobile payment function.
B. The agencies provide better service through WeChat.
C. Mini programs are convenient for the agencies.
D. People do not have to carry keys and cash with them.
64. What benefits does WeChat bring to the businesses
A. It has brought more followers. B. It has become a standard.
C. It has helped to cut down the costs. D. It has made the businesses healthier.
65. What is to be remembered when we look at the downsides of WeChat
A. WeChat should be held responsibly.
B. WeChat should be banned among primary school children.
C. The improper use of the app leads to many problems.
D. The 5G technology will bring new conveniences and experience.

第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
I had many experiences studying in groups. But the most impressive experience for me was an English singing competition.
Last term, we had to sing an English song in groups in the singing competition. The song our team chose was Try Everything.
Although most of the team members quickly learned the melody (曲调), there were still a few students who couldn’t sing it or were too shy to sing it in public. So, we taught those who couldn’t sing and encouraged those who were very shy. Finally, we sang it really well and got first prize.
From this experience, I realized that studying in groups has a lot of superiority. Everyone has advantages and disadvantages. When we work in teams, we can learn from each other and fill in teaming gaps. Also, it’s easy to give up when studying alone. And with each other’s encouragement. We’ll be more likely to be able to persist. What’s more, when we discuss in groups, we can learn bow to communicate with others and achieve the team goals together.
Just as the saying goes, “Alone we can run faster, but together we can go further ” So, let’s enjoy group study!
66. Which experience made the author feel it memorable in group learning (no more than 5 words)
