17-year-old Kenan Pala has a wealth of experience in dealing with homelessness and helping those in need.
The Rancho Bernardo student became one of the 17 young adults appointed ( 任命) to the newly revamped ( 改进的) San Diego Youth Commission by Mayor Todd Gloria in 2021. “Being on the Commission is very important and it’s an exciting new stage for my work in the community,” Pala said.
Pala started Kids4Community in 2017. The group works with local charities and volunteer organizations to encourage children 5 and up to do charity work.
Since the beginning, a major focus of Kids4Community has been to help the homeless. The group meets regularly to provide meal services and care packages (包裹) to the homeless and those in need.
Pala said his interest in helping others comes from the example set by his parents. “My parents moved here from Turkey in 1998. Life was really hard at first, but my parents said they got a lot of help from the San Diego community. They tried very hard to give back whenever and wherever help was needed,” he said.
Pala is also chair of the Lucky Ducklings Youth Advisory Board, part of the Lucky Duck Foundation, another charity with the mission of driving youth participation in community issues, particularly in helping to deal with the issue of homeless youth.
The young man has just been admitted to Yale University. At Yale, he plans to major in economics or business, because personal funds and private equity (私募股权) are all his interests. “I want to pursue ( 追求) a career path, but link it with my community and social work,” he said.
Meanwhile, Pala said the Commission members have already been communicating with each other through email, and he is very excited to work with like-minded people who want to make a difference.

5.What can we learn about Kids4Community

Parrots live extremely long partly due to their relatively large brains, an international team of researchers has discovered. Simeon Smeele, a doctoral student at the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior, led the study, the results of which were published in March in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B.
When it comes to lifespan (寿命), birds truly stand out. Lifespan tends to increase with an animal’s body size, roughly speaking. Thus, the bigger the animal, the longer they live. But a bird tends to live much longer than a comparably-sized mammal (哺乳动物). One theory is that birds’ ability to fly means they are less at risk from the animals that kill them, which reduces their risk of being eaten, decreases stress, and frees up bodily resources for growth.
And among birds, parrots are the aging champions. The confirmed longest living bird was Cookie, a Major Mitchell’s cockatoo (a species of parrot), who lived at the Brookfield Zoo in Illinois for all but one of his 83 years. Though cockatoos often weigh around a pound, they usually live for four decades. Most of the other 398 parrot species also live longer than other birds of similar size.
What sets parrots apart In the new research, Smeele and his colleagues gathered data on over 130,000 individual parrots held in more than 1,000 zoos, representing 217 species. Through this data, they created reliable estimates of the average lifespan for each species. They next searched for a link between each species’ lifespan and its relative brain size and found a clear, positive correspondence. Parrot species with larger brains relative to their body size lived longer than species with smaller brains.
“This supports the idea that in general larger brains make species more flexible and allow them to live longer,” Smeele said in a statement. “For example, if they run out of their favorite food, they could learn to find something new and thus survive.” He added, “All parrots have relatively large brain sizes compared to most other birds.”
Researchers have previously shown that, when trained, some parrots can recognize and understand objects, colors, and shapes, and even speak with an impressive vocabulary. They can even match five-year-old humans on basic tests of intelligence.
8.What may cause birds’ long life
A.Their big body size. B.Their ability to fly.
C.Their less adventurous nature. D.Their slow-paced lifestyle.
9.What do we know about parrots according to the text
A.They outlive other similar-sized birds.
B.They live longer in the zoo than in the wild.
C.They have an average lifespan of four decades.
D.They live in relatively less competitive environments.
10.What does the underlined word “correspondence” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A.Goal. B.Evidence. C.Difference D.Connection.
11.What does the author want to stress with the example in Paragraph5
A.Parrots find it hard to survive nowadays.
B.Bigger brains give parrots more adaptability(适应性).
C.Parrots like to discover new things by nature.
D.Bigger brains aid parrots with their social ability.
In 2017, five different versions of Van Goghs painting of sunflowers were reunited (重聚) for the first time through livestreaming (网络直播).
The five paintings are housed in different museums across the world, but through livestreaming these museums gave their audiences the chance to view and compare all the paintings at once in real time.
Each painting was presented by a curator (馆长) from each of the museums, who had fifteen minutes to explain the significance of their version of the artwork. This is an example of how livestreaming can offer audiences an experience that would otherwise be impossible. There is no way that they would have been able to compare the five sunflower paintings in real time without the support of technology. This livestream provides us with an interesting starting point as we consider where this technique may take us next.
In recent years, some museums have made livestreaming an important part of their output. The J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles is one of them.
The museum went live for the first time in 2016 simply because of a suggestion by one of the museum’s interns (实习生) to broadcast their yearly college night. The short stream was an unexpected success, reaching 30, 000 people across Facebook, and got nearly 3,000 reactions, comments and shares.
This success inspired the museum to post livestream content more regularly, whether it was to show off their exhibits through gallery tours, post talks with curators and other in-house experts, or to show special behind-the-scenes (幕后的) content.
Through livestreaming, the museum’s online audience gets to experience a more informal look at the inner workings of the museum, and gains greater knowledge and understanding of their favourite artworks. In turn, the Getty Museum creates a worldwide audience for itself, and helps to change the idea that art galleries like the Getty Museum are only open to certain types of people, by interacting directly with a large audience.
12.What could audiences learn during the livestream of Van Gogh’s paintings
A.Where to find the original version of the paintings.
B.The curators’ stories about the paintings.
C.How to appreciate artworks better.
D.The importance of the paintings.
13.What did the J. Paul Getty Museum livestream during its first try
A.An exhibition. B.A college event.
C.A talk with curators. D.A tour around the museum.
14.How has livestreaming affected the J. Paul Getty Museum
A.It has changed people’s idea of the museum.
B.It has pushed the museum to increase its number of artworks.
C.It has drawn more world-class artists’ attention to the museum.
D.It has helped visitors to develop a formal understanding of the museum.
15.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A.Livestreaming changes how museums house artworks
B.Livestreaming connects museums around the world
C.Livestreaming brings museums to the public
D.Livestreaming gives museums a second life

We’re not all 10 of a little lie here and there. Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and Snow White are just a few examples of 11 for parents to keep magic in the world. Magic, imagination and creativity are very essential in life, 12 for children. These stories battle against the negative aspects of the world and create 13 . In the end children will be able to 14 what is true and what was made to 15 their lives. Out of five brothers and a sister I can happily report that not one of the children I grew up with was 16 when we discovered who all those 17 people really were.
In life, a parent is the 18 of knowledge, and it is up to the parent to decide what knowledge to teach and when. There’s no 19 to tell children all about the truth. As they become 20 , they will have a better understanding of the world.

四、短文填空
37.Most people have the creativity to come up with a new idea. It could be anything: a smartphone app, a concept to improve education, or an invention to help people in need. This creativity is the driving force needed to produce something and become a successful entrepreneur(企业家). Education levels do not matter in this case. From people with little education ① those with advanced degrees, their hearts and minds must ② (fill) with imagination in order to succeed. In fact, this essential element of imagination often thrives among people who have few resources. These people tend to look at things in a different way from those ③ have everything given to them. It may be easier to “think outside the box” when resources are not easily available. When there is a real need, the motivation to create and devise solutions is even ④ (strong).
⑤ (commit), not cash, is what leads to success. It is dedication(奉献) that turns ideas into realities. Thomas Edison, ⑥ inventor of the light bulb, is the perfect example of someone who was committed to success. According to Forbes magazine, Edison tried over 1, 000 times ⑦ (invent) a working light bulb. When he was asked how he felt about ⑧ (fail) so many times, Edison responded, “I didn’t fail 1, 000 times. The light bulb was an invention with 1, 000 ⑨ (step). ” Even if resources are not easily accessible, a committed entrepreneur will find a way to pursue his or ⑩ (she) ideas.

A Role Model I Learn from
There are many extraordinary people that can be called a model. The one I want to learn from is my aunt, a middle-aged nurse, always wearing a smile and a determined look.
Her selfless devotion to her job never fails to appeal to me. Additionally, it is her passionate belief in what she is doing that leaves a deep impression on me. Faced with the outbreak of the epidemic, she went to Wuhan without a second thought, where she helped to save hundreds of lives. Whenever I encounter difficulties, her heroic deeds will flash through my mind and motivate me to overcome them.
In my eye, my aunt is such an outstanding model that I want to learn from her. What she has done sheds light on the future lying before me.
