Brave， crazy or both — that’s what my family and friends thought when I announced I would begin a search for a new place to call home.But after a lifetime of doing what I thought others expected of me， I needed neither their permission nor their blessings.
So on 14 September 2015， I literally drove out of my old life and into my new one， without a clue as to what that life would look like when I found it.
My only traveling companion was my dog， Bella.With six months of reservations in various places， the two of us hit the road.Driving out of the tiny town in South Dakota where I’d been living was the most frightening moment of my life for many reasons.I was terrified of being alone.I hated driving.I’m directionally challenged.
On the road， every girl-power songs ever written played on the radio， one after another.Cher told me to “believe in life after love”. Beyoncé reminded me that girls “run the world”， and Rachel Platten sang her “fight song”. All the songs one would want to hear when some courage was needed came on.
For the next ten months， Bella and I checked out possible new places to live.We investigated towns we knew and places we’d never been.My journey was filled with unexpected ups and downs， often leaving me agreeing with those who had thought I was crazy to do it.
My journey covered thousands of miles， twenty-two different beds， and a host of life-changing events over the course of ten months.Today， I’m no longer traveling or terrified.My final destination turned out to be Palm Springs， California， a unique village that spoke to my heart and that I’m thankful to call home every day.
During my travels， one of my daughters made me a gift that said，“Home is where my mom is.” And as I look at it today， I realise that finding a home wasn’t nearly as important as finding myself.
24.What made the author feel frightened？（ ）
A.Searching for a new place. B.Driving thousands of miles.
C.Not having a traveling companion. D.Leaving the small town in South Dakota.
25.Why did the author play many girl-power songs on the road？（ ）
A.To relax herself. B.To entertain Bella.
C.To get some courage. D.To get some inspiration.
26.What made the author feel she was crazy？（ ）
A.The journey’s being hard. B.The journey’s long distance.
C.Travelling for ten months. D.Many life-changing events.
27.What can we infer about the author？（ ）
A.She liked trying new things. B.She will go back to the town.
C.She was fond of being alone. D.She wasn’t satisfied with California.

When it comes to achieving success， some believe that there is a magic number for greatness， a ten-year or 10，000-hour rule， which suggests that practising any skill for 10，000 hours is enough to make you an expert.
In his 2008 book Outliers， Malcolm Gladwell wrote that “ten thousand hours is the magic number of greatness”.
Many professionals and experts did acquire their exceptional skill through persistent practices.But detailed analyses of the case studies of experts often suggest that certain situational factors beyond the control of these exceptional （非凡的） performers also play an important role.For example， three national champions in table tennis came from the same street in a small suburb of one town in England.
This wasn’t a coincidence.It turns out that a famous table tennis coach， Peter Charters， happened to retire in this particular suburb.Many kids who lived on the same street as the retired coach were attracted to this sport because of him and three of them， after following the “10，000-hour rule”， performed exceptionally well， including winning the national championship.
Their talent and efforts were， of course， very important.But without their early luck （having a reliable， high-quality coach and supportive families）， simply practicing 10，000 hours without enough feedback wouldn’t likely lead a child to become a national champion.
We could also imagine a child with superior talent in table tennis suffering from early bad luck.Then they might never have a chance to realise their potential.It seems that the more exceptional a performance is， the fewer meaningful， applicable lessons we can actually learn from the “winner”.
When it comes to moderate performance， it seems much more likely that our intuition about success is correct.Conventional wisdom， such as “the harder I work the luckier I get” or “chance favours the prepared mind”， makes perfect sense when talking about someone moving from poor to good performance.Going from good to great， however， is a different story.Being in the right place at the right time （having early luck） can be so important.
28.Which proverb can best summarise the 10，000-hour rule？（ ）
A.Hard work pays off. B.Nothing is impossible.
C.Practice makes perfect. D.Rome wasn’t built in a day.
29.Why does the author give the example of the three national champions？（ ）
A.To show the power of personal effort.
B.To tell us the benefits of having a good coach.
C.To prove the necessity of interests and hobbies.
D.To stress the importance of external environment.
30.According to the author， we would learn least from .（ ）
A.a top student in our class B.an excellent teacher in our school
C.the most famous scientist in China D.the greatest businessman in the world
31.What do the underlined words “is a different story” probably mean？ （ ）
A.Takes more time. B.Involves more luck.
C.Takes more persistence. D.Involves more hard work.
D
Our planet’s oceans are warmer than they’ve ever been in recorded human history.And ocean temperatures are not only increasing， they are heating up at an accelerating rate， according to a new analysis.
In 2019， the ocean temperature was about 0.135 degrees Fahrenheit （0.075 degrees Celsius） higher than the average between 1981 and 2010， an international group of researchers reported on 13 January in the journal Advances in Atmospheric Sciences.
That means that the ocean — which absorbs almost all of the greenhouse gases humans send into the atmosphere — has taken in 228 sextillian （228，000，000，000，000，000，000，000） joules of heat above its average， according to a statement.By comparison， the energy released by the Hiroshima atom-bomb explosion was about 63，000，000，000，000 joules.
“The amount of heat we have put in the world’s oceans in the past 25 years equals to 3.6 billion Hiroshima atom-bomb explosions，” lead author Lijing Cheng， associate professor with the International Center for Climate and Environmental Sciences at the Institute of Atmospheric Physics （IAP） of the Chinese Academy of Sciences （CAS）.
The oceans can be a good measure of the effect of climate change since they absorb the majority of excess heat from the atmosphere， the researchers wrote.The effects of the warming are already appearing as more extreme weather， rising sea levels and harm to ocean animals， according to the statement.
Though humans can work to control the effects of climate change， the oceans — which absorbed more than 90% of the excess heat — will take longer to recover than the land and atmosphere， which only absorbed 4%.
“Even with that small part affecting the atmosphere and land， the global heating has led to an increase in great fires in the Amazon， California and Australia in 2019， and we’re seeing that continue into 2020，” Cheng said.
“Global warming is real， and it’s getting worse，” co-author John Abraham， professor of thermal sciences at the University of St.Thomas in Minnesota， said in the statement.“And this is just the tip of the iceberg for what is to come.”
32.What does the author want to show by mentioning Hiroshima atom-bomb explosion？（ ）
A.The harm of climate change.
B.The influence of global heating.
C.The ocean absorbs huge quantities of heat.
D.The explosion has produced too much heat.
33.Why are oceans a good measure of the effect of climate change？（ ）
A.They are easy to monitor and examine.
B.They reduce the harm of global heating.
C.They send much heat into the atmosphere.
D.They take in most heat from greenhouse gases.
34.What attitude did John Abraham take towards the future？（ ）
A.Confident. B.Worried.
C.Surprised. D.Ambiguous.
35.What would be the best title for the passage？（ ）
A.Ocean Temperatures Have Reached a New High
B.Where Has the Heat from the Atmosphere Gone？
C.Global Heating Has Caused Serious Consequences
D.What Has Resulted in Higher Ocean Temperatures？

According to Professor Vyv Evans of Bangor University， emoji is the UK’s fastest-growing language — evolving faster than any language in history.36.（ ） In the UK they are becoming more popular than Internet abbreviations （缩写） like “lol” （laughing out loud）， “muah” （the sound of a kiss） or “xoxoxo” （hugs and kisses）.37.（ ） In New York’s Museum of Modern Art you can now see the first set of the 176 original emojis.

A.We all seem to like emojis.

One pleasant New Year morning， Edward rose， washed and dressed himself in a hurry.He wanted to be the first to wish a happy New Year.

When he came back， his father gave him two bright， new silver dollars.His face lighted up as he took them.He had wished for a long time to buy some pretty books that he had seen at the bookstore.He left the house with a light heart， intending to buy the books.
As he ran down the street， he saw a poor German family， the father， mother， and three children shivering with cold.“I wish you a happy New Year，” said Edward， as he was gayly passing on.The man shook his head.“You do not belong to this country，” said Edward.The man again shook his head， for he could not understand or speak our language.
But he pointed to his mouth， and to the children， as if to say，“These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time.” Edward quickly understood that these poor people were in distress （困境）.He took out his dollars， and gave one to the man， and the other to his wife.
How their eyes sparkled with gratitude！ They said something in their language， which doubtless， meant，“We thank you a thousand times， and will remember you in our prayers.”

I think I can wait for my books till next New Year.” His father asked the reason.He explained it was a German family who didn’t have enough clothes to wear.Edward’s explanation made his father understand what had happened and he expressed that he couldn’t agree more with him.“I will buy you some books，” promised Father.
“My dear boy，” said his father， “here is a whole bundle of books.” To his surprise， the books were exactly what he wanted.Holding the books his father gave him in his arms， Edward felt he was the happiest boy in the world.He felt the sweetness of helping others.A few days later， Edward met the family again， and they still thanked him a thousand times.He knew that help means we all can give a hand to people in need under any circumstances.

M：Have you seen my gloves anywhere？ I’ve checked the cupboard but
they’re not there.Did I leave them on the desk？
W：Oh， yes.I remember.I moved them from there and put them on the
shelf by the window.I needed to do some work on the desk.
（Text 2）
M：Jenny， that report has to be done by 19：00.
W：Oh， I thought I had to finish it until tomorrow noon.Won’t we
have a meeting at that time？
M：It has been rescheduled at 14：00 today.
（Text 3）
M：Have you finished reading the story？
W：Yes.I don’t think it was as interesting as the film.The writer’s
words made me feel extremely bored.
（Text 4）
W：I want to go to the concert on Friday.Would you love to go with me？
M：Sorry， I’m already scheduled to work.I’ll be free on Saturday.
W：But I already have tickets for Friday.

that came in and went out of the company between 7 and 11.
（Text 6）

now.Anything new？

Brave， crazy or both — that’s what my family and friends thought
when I announced I would begin a search for a new place to call home.But
after a lifetime of doing what I thought others expected of me， I needed
neither their permission nor their blessings.
So on 14 September 2015， I literally drove out of my old life and
into my new one， without a clue as to what that life would look like when
I found it.
My only traveling companion was my dog， Bella.With six months
of reservations in various places， the two of us hit the road.Driving out of
the tiny town in South Dakota where I’d been living was the most
frightening moment of my life for many reasons.I was terrified of being
alone.I hated driving.I’m directionally challenged.
On the road， every girl-power songs ever written played on the
radio， one after another.Cher told me to “believe in life after love”.
Beyoncé reminded me that girls “run the world”， and Rachel Platten
sang her “fight song”. All the songs one would want to hear when some
courage was needed came on.
For the next ten months， Bella and I checked out possible new
places to live.We investigated towns we knew and places we’d never
been.My journey was filled with unexpected ups and downs， often
leaving me agreeing with those who had thought I was crazy to do it.
My journey covered thousands of miles， twenty-two different
beds， and a host of life-changing events over the course of ten
months.Today， I’m no longer traveling or terrified.My final destination
turned out to be Palm Springs， California， a unique village that spoke to
my heart and that I’m thankful to call home every day.
During my travels， one of my daughters made me a gift that said，
“Home is where my mom is.” And as I look at it today， I realise that
finding a home wasn’t nearly as important as finding myself.

When it comes to achieving success， some believe that there is a
magic number for greatness， a ten-year or 10，000-hour rule， which
suggests that practising any skill for 10，000 hours is enough to make you
an expert.
In his 2008 book Outliers， Malcolm Gladwell wrote that “ten
thousand hours is the magic number of greatness”.
Many professionals and experts did acquire their exceptional skill
through persistent practices.But detailed analyses of the case studies of
experts often suggest that certain situational factors beyond the control of
these exceptional （非凡的） performers also play an important role.For
example， three national champions in table tennis came from the same
street in a small suburb of one town in England.
This wasn’t a coincidence.It turns out that a famous table tennis
coach， Peter Charters， happened to retire in this particular suburb.Many
kids who lived on the same street as the retired coach were attracted to this
sport because of him and three of them， after following the “10，000-
hour rule”， performed exceptionally well， including winning the
national championship.
Their talent and efforts were， of course， very important.But
without their early luck （having a reliable， high-quality coach and
supportive families）， simply practicing 10，000 hours without enough
feedback wouldn’t likely lead a child to become a national champion.
We could also imagine a child with superior talent in table tennis
suffering from early bad luck.Then they might never have a chance to
realise their potential.It seems that the more exceptional a performance
is， the fewer meaningful， applicable lessons we can actually learn from
the “winner”.
When it comes to moderate performance， it seems much more likely
that our intuition about success is correct.Conventional wisdom， such as
“the harder I work the luckier I get” or “chance favours the prepared
mind”， makes perfect sense when talking about someone moving from
poor to good performance.Going from good to great， however， is a
different story.Being in the right place at the right time （having early
luck） can be so important.

Our planet’s oceans are warmer than they’ve ever been in recorded
human history.And ocean temperatures are not only increasing， they are
heating up at an accelerating rate， according to a new analysis.
In 2019， the ocean temperature was about 0.135 degrees Fahrenheit
（0.075 degrees Celsius） higher than the average between 1981 and
2010， an international group of researchers reported on 13 January in the
journal Advances in Atmospheric Sciences.
That means that the ocean — which absorbs almost all of the
greenhouse gases humans send into the atmosphere — has taken in 228
sextillian （228，000，000，000，000，000，000，000） joules of
heat above its average， according to a statement.By comparison， the
energy released by the Hiroshima atom-bomb explosion was about 63，
000，000，000，000 joules.
“The amount of heat we have put in the world’s oceans in the past
25 years equals to 3.6 billion Hiroshima atom-bomb explosions，” lead
author Lijing Cheng， associate professor with the International Center for
Climate and Environmental Sciences at the Institute of Atmospheric
Physics （IAP） of the Chinese Academy of Sciences （CAS）.
The oceans can be a good measure of the effect of climate change
since they absorb the majority of excess heat from the atmosphere， the
researchers wrote.The effects of the warming are already appearing as
more extreme weather， rising sea levels and harm to ocean animals，
according to the statement.
Though humans can work to control the effects of climate change，
the oceans — which absorbed more than 90% of the excess heat — will
take longer to recover than the land and atmosphere， which only absorbed
4%.
“Even with that small part affecting the atmosphere and land， the
global heating has led to an increase in great fires in the Amazon，
California and Australia in 2019， and we’re seeing that continue into
2020，” Cheng said.
“Global warming is real， and it’s getting worse，” co-author
John Abraham， professor of thermal sciences at the University of
St.Thomas in Minnesota， said in the statement.“And this is just the tip
of the iceberg for what is to come.”

A picture speaks a thousand words.And with over a thousand emoji
pictures to represent our words， who needs to speak or write any
more？！ Let’s take a closer look at the UK’s fastest-growing
language.
According to Professor Vyv Evans of Bangor University， emoji is
the UK’s fastest-growing language — evolving faster than any language
in history.36.（ ） In the UK they are becoming more popular than
Internet abbreviations （缩写） like “lol” （laughing out loud），
“muah” （the sound of a kiss） or “xoxoxo” （hugs and
kisses）.37.（ ） In New York’s Museum of Modern Art you can
now see the first set of the 176 original emojis.
38. （ ） But why？ They allow us to personalise text and have fun as we express ourselves， make people laugh and be creative in how we
use them.UK teenagers also told us they really appreciated the fact
that emojis are quick and easy.
People also really identify with their favourite emojis.39.
（ ） What does your recently used emoji board say about you？
Is it full of party poppers （礼花） and smileys？ Or unhappy faces？
In the UK， the most used emojis are “face with tears of joy”
“face blowing a kiss” and “love heart”.40.（ ） You can
also tell a lot about a culture from their emoji complaints.Until 2015
when the “cheese wedge” arrived， British people were constantly
complaining about the lack of cheese！ Now， the addition of
“bacon” in 2016 means we’re very close to a full English
breakfast.
A. We all seem to like emojis.
B. Emojis are more effective than words.
C. They make online chatting more colourful.
D. The emojis we choose can reflect our personality.
E. They have inspired fashion and are even recognised as art！
F. Maybe the British are more fun and romantic than people think！
G. These little electronic images started in Japanese mobile phones in
the 1990s and are now hugely popular.

填a。
59. stories 根据语境可知，这里提到的故事不止一个，故填其复数形
式stories。

One pleasant New Year morning， Edward rose， washed and

Year.
He looked in every room， and shouted the words of welcome.He ran
into the street， to repeat them to those he might meet.
When he came back， his father gave him two bright， new silver
dollars.His face lighted up as he took them.He had wished for a long time
to buy some pretty books that he had seen at the bookstore.He left the
house with a light heart， intending to buy the books.
As he ran down the street， he saw a poor German family， the
father， mother， and three children shivering with cold.“I wish you a
happy New Year，” said Edward， as he was gayly passing on.The man
shook his head.“You do not belong to this country，” said Edward.The
man again shook his head， for he could not understand or speak our
language.
But he pointed to his mouth， and to the children， as if to say，
“These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time.” Edward
quickly understood that these poor people were in distress （困境）.He
took out his dollars， and gave one to the man， and the other to his wife.
How their eyes sparkled with gratitude！ They said something in their
language， which doubtless， meant，“We thank you a thousand
times， and will remember you in our prayers.”

When Edward came home， his father asked what books he had
bought.He hung his head a moment， but quickly looked up.“I have
bought no books，” he said，“I give my money to some poor people，
who seemed to be very hungry. I think I can wait for my books till next
New Year.” His father asked the reason.He explained it was a German
family who didn’t have enough clothes to wear.Edward’s explanation
made his father understand what had happened and he expressed that he
couldn’t agree more with him.“I will buy you some books，”
promised Father.
“My dear boy，” said his father， “here is a whole bundle of
books.” To his surprise， the books were exactly what he
wanted.Holding the books his father gave him in his arms， Edward felt
he was the happiest boy in the world.He felt the sweetness of helping
others.A few days later， Edward met the family again， and they still
thanked him a thousand times.He knew that help means we all can give a
hand to people in need under any circumstances.
