Ever heard of the words “one man's waste is another man's treasure ” Nabeel Alam has taken that idea to a whole new level．
He and 26 other high school students from Durham，east of Toronto，Canada，started a company that turns unused clothes into practical reusable bags．
Nabeel said the clothing they use is in good condition，but is being thrown away because it's no longer useful or it's out of style．By repurposing clothes (given by family and friends) heading for the garbage dump (垃圾场)，Nabeel can work towards achieving his goal: cutting down on textile waste in Canada．“We give it a new purpose，” said Nabeel，the company's president．
How does the company work The students take the clothes and put them in the wash．Then a team member cuts the clothes to match a pre-drawn outline．After that，the bags are sewn(缝制) together by a sewer who volunteers to help the company．
The team puts pictures of them on their website and Instagram so people can buy them for between $8 and $12．Nabeel said the goal of the company—named Vivlio Amet—is to let people know how much textile waste leads to climate change．
But Vivlio Amet will only last for a little while longer．That's because Vivlio Amet started in October 2019 as an 18-week Junior Achievement Program project．Through the program，volunteer advisers team up with students to help them start a temporary business from the ground up．
Though the program is completely separate from school，Nabeel said it doesn't feel like extra work．“ I don't treat it like a task．It's something I like a lot，” Nabeel said．“ If you want to be successful you need to work really hard at it．”
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了加拿大一所高中的学生Nabeel Alam和另外几个同学成立了一家名为 Vivlio Amet的公司，把人们打算扔掉的衣服做成实用的布包。
4．What does Vivlio Amet do
A．It runs a garbage dump．
B．It sells reusable old clothes．
C．It makes bags with old clothes．
D．It collects unused clothes for factories．
C [细节理解题。根据第二段中的“started a company that turns unused clothes into practical reusable bags”及第五段中的“named Vivlio Amet”可知，Vivlio Amet 公司主要是把旧的不用的衣物做成实用的布包。故选C。]
5．According to Nabeel，what is the purpose of Vivlio Amet
A．To make pocket money for him．
B．To try his luck at running a company．
C．To call on people to avoid textile waste．
D．To set a good example for his classmates．
C [细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Nabeel can work towards achieving his goal：cutting down on textile waste in Canada”以及第五段中的“Nabeel said the goal of the．．．waste leads to climate change．”可知，Vivlio Amet公司的目标就是让人们知晓纺织物的浪费对环境的影响，呼吁人们减少纺织物的浪费。故选C。]
6．What does the underlined word “temporary” in paragraph 6 mean
A．School-based． B．Short-lived．
C．Privately-owned． D．Half-finished．
B [词义猜测题。根据第六段中画线词前的“But Vivlio Amet will only last．．．Achievement Program project．”可知，Vivlio Amet公司只会存在18周，这说明它只是一个“临时的”公司。故选B。]
7．How did Nabeel feel about his work for the program
A．It was tiring．
B．It was pioneering．
C．It was quite difficult．
D．It was very enjoyable．

Going from middle school to high school can be difficult，as students are faced with new academic (学业的) and social challenges．Before the first day of high school，there are things every soon-to-be high school freshmen and their families should know．
People who have a fixed mindset (思维倾向) believe that they are born to be great or weak．On the other hand，people who have a growth mindset believe that their greatness or weakness is because of their own actions．I totally agree that students should have a growth mindset．I don't expect any student to move from just passing a subject to an A＋．It's going to take time and focused effort; just keep working on it．
Parents should prepare students to fight the battle “on the pillow” and “in the kitchen”．When I say “pillow” I mean sleep．Not having enough sleep can have some surprising effects on students，including improper behavior，anxiety and poor grades．The second weapon (武器) is eating healthy and balanced meals．Studies show that students who eat nutritious meals and who exercise 60 minutes a day remain more attentive during the school day and experience improved academic achievement and grades．This last “secret” weapon is not to have over-scheduled (安排过度的) time．Make sure students know how to set realistic plans and how to say no to tasks and activities that aren't important to them．
A lot of students know each other from primary and middle school．They are in their “comfort zones”，feeling they have a sense of control over and expectation of their relationships．But come the first real day of high school，that will all change．The reason I encourage high school freshmen to step out of their comfort zones，though often scary，is that comfort zones get boring and there are many kinds of people to get to know．Let's encourage them to get involved，have fun and play．
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要为每个即将进入高中的新生和他们的家人介绍了一些应该知道的事情。
8．Which of the following represents a fixed mindset
A．I'm at the starting point of my potential．
B．My mother is not good at chemistry either．
C．I should start studying a little earlier next time．
D．It's okay if I fail; at least I've learned something．
B [推理判断题。根据第二段中的“People who have a fixed mindset believe that they are born to be great or weak．”可知，固定思维倾向是把人的能力归为与生俱来的。比较选项可知，“我妈妈也不擅长化学”是把自己不擅长化学归结为遗传自母亲，属于固定思维倾向。]
9．What might the author encourage parents to do
A．To prepare healthy meals for their kids．
B．To praise their kids when they do well in school．
C．To take their kids to visit their grandparents often．
D．To buy soft pillows for their kids to have a good rest．
A [推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The second weapon is eating healthy and balanced meals．Studies show that students who eat nutritious meals and who exercise 60 minutes a day remain more attentive during the school day and experience improved academic achievement and grades．”可知，作者认为健康均衡的饮食很重要，可以帮助孩子们提高学业成绩。因此，作者会鼓励家长为他们的孩子准备健康的食物。]
10．What is the third weapon mainly about
A．Enjoying good health．
B．Owning the ability to say no．
C．Balancing schoolwork and play．
D．Developing time management skills．
D [细节理解题。根据第三段中的“This last ‘secret’ weapon is not to have over-scheduled time．Make sure students know how to set realistic plans and how to say no to tasks and activities that aren't important to them．”可知，第三个武器主要是培养时间管理技能，合理安排时间。]
11．What does the underlined word “that” in the last paragraph refer to
A．The sense of control．
B．The value of friendship．
C．The feeling that they have control over relationship．
D．The feeling that they become helpless．
C [代词指代题。根据画线词的上文“A lot of students know each other from primary and middle school．They are in their ‘comfort zones’，feeling they have a sense of control over and expectation of their relationships．But come the first real day of high school”和下文“will all change”可知，此处先描述学生们待在“舒适区”的感觉，再提到高中的第一天意味着改变。由此可知，that指代的是前面描述的那种他们能控制人际关系的感觉。故选C项。]
D
I was sitting at a table，eating a chicken salad sandwich．I wasn't really hungry but I was supposed to sit a bit and eat something to refill my strength before heading home．I had left early to be the first in line at a blood drive which was being held 15 miles away from my home．I knew that the changes because of something unusual would make the donation process even longer than it was before and I was right．I stood at the door and had my temperature checked even before going into the room．Once I was admitted，it was checked a second time along with my pulse，blood pressure and iron level．Then I had to answer a long list of questions，making sure I had never been anywhere or done anything so I would be safe to donate blood．
Thankfully，it all went well and I was soon lying on a table with a needle in my arm and my blood quietly flowing into a pint-sized bag．I chatted and joked with the lady drawing my blood．They had almost 50 people scheduled to donate blood that day and were happy to do it because each pint of blood could be saving a life．
I took another bite of my sandwich，drank some water，and looked down at the paper lying next to me．On it was a date that was 56 days from then．It was the first day I would be able to donate blood again．
Every pint of blood we donate can save a life．Every smile we share can uplift a heart．Every kind word we say can brighten a day．Every act of kindness we do can make this world a better place．Fill all your days with love then．
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了作者一次献血的过程及感悟。
12．What did the writer expect before leaving his home
A．It would take little time to donate blood．
B．More people would come to donate blood．
C．He might be hungry after donating blood．
D．The process of donating blood would be longer．
D [细节理解题。根据第一段中的“I knew that the changes．．．even longer than it was before and I was right．”可知，作者临出门之前就想到了献血过程可能会更长。]
13．When would the writer be able to donate blood again
A．Fifty-six days from the day on．
B．After eating the chicken salad sandwich．
C．After drinking a bottle of water．
D．After having a rest for two hours．
A [细节理解题。根据第三段中的“On it was a date that was 56 days from then．It was the first day I would be able to donate blood again．”可知，作者如果要再次献血，需要到56天之后。]
14．What did the writer want to tell us in the text
A．Make the world a safer place．
B．Share your love with others．
C．Spend your days in a happy way．
D．Listen to kind words every day．
B [推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知，作者通过讲述自己献血的过程，希望人们都能够和他人分享爱。]
15．What can be the best title for the text
A．A Way of Saving a Life
B．An Act of Kindness
C．A Pint of Blood
D．A Memorable Experience
C [标题归纳题。本文通过介绍作者献血的经历，一方面表达了作者自己对他人的爱心，另一方面也赞扬了那些辛勤的医务工作者的奉献精神，最终告诉人们要与他人分享爱。]

I was giving my 5-year-old daughter a bath one night when she looked out of the window at our fence and announced，“You know，Mamma，sometimes looking at trees helps you to think．” 16 What a deep observation from a little child．“You are right，” I encouraged．“What are you thinking about？”
Lately，there have been a lot of changes going on—in my life at work．Business has been hard and I have been doing a lot of consulting for customers who haven't been able to afford help． 17 I have a need and desire to help，but I often say “Yes” when my wallet should be saying “No！”
The last few years have been such a struggle for so many of my customers from so many walks of life． 18 Worse yet，I always have a voice in the back of my head that says if I don't relax or learn a better way to deal with stress，cancer might come near!
So when my daughter said that sentence，I promised to spend more time in nature． 19 It is so grounding and so healing．I have traded a few gym days for hikes in the hills above my house． 20 I am always more clear-headed after that．So I plan on spending some time this summer in southern California，enjoying thinking at the base of an old，wise tree—with my daughter of course．
A．I struggle with this．
B．What she said is so true．
C．My health is on the downside．
D．I decided to stop the busy life．
E．I just sat in surprise and silence．
F．I have trouble sleeping，sometimes．

[参考范文]
Dear Headmaster，
I'm writing to tell you that the waste in our school dining hall is very serious．If you go to the dining hall，you will find the leftovers lying everywhere and some of them are thrown into the dustbins．Faced with these phenomena，I feel worried．Although our country is becoming richer and richer now，we still need to save everything because saving is one of the virtues of the Chinese nation．
Therefore，we should ban this behaviour and take measures to ask all the students to promote saving and fight against waste．
Best wishes!
Yours sincerely，
Li Hua
第二节(满分25分)
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。
I am a proud mother of three children，my last little one was born in August，and her name is Aida．
Shortly after having Aida，my mother-in-law Ann showed me something she learned from her friend's mother in an art class she attended weekly．She had showed me how to knit a scarf．She showed me stitches (针) and gave me her half done project．
I spent a lot of time breastfeeding my sweet little girl，so I had some extra time to do something with my hands throughout the day．I enjoyed making the scarf so I bought tons of yarn (线) since it was winter．I wanted to make scarves for my three children as New Year gifts．
There was a new family that moved in down the street．The only daughter of the family was Jane，a shy girl，aged 14，the same age of my oldest son David．It seemed that she came from a poor family，for she always wore old clothes．Worse still，in such cold days，she had no more clothes to wear and trembled with cold．
In such discouraging times，however，they became good companions，talking and playing at home or around the houses．
It was very cold this winter．Every time David came back from outside，with red face，he always cried，“Mum，it is freezing outside！” Then，he came over to see whether I finished the scarf．I could tell how impatient he was to wear my scarf sooner! I had to speed the project to satisfy his expectation．But David comforted me saying he could wait a few days．What a kind and thoughtful boy he was! Then my great art project finally was finished on the morning ahead of New Year．
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
I put the scarf around David's neck．
Later that day David came back saying Jane also deserved a scarf．
[参考范文]
I put the scarf around David's neck．David's face lit up with joy．Stroking the scarf softly，David excitedly kissed me in the cheek，beaming at me “Thank you，Mum．This is the best gift I have ever received．” Before I could say anything，he dashed out to join Jane with a spring in his step．I felt relieved and content as a mother，seeing David play happily outside，with the scarf sheltering him to brave the biting wind．Wearing a smile on my face，I continued my chores that morning．
Later that day David came back saying Jane also deserved a scarf．Obviously，David noticed Jane could hardly bear the freezing weather with worn-out clothes．“Can I give this to Jane as a New Year gift？” David ventured in a low voice．Smilingly，I nodded．Seeing David rush into Jane's house with the scarf in his hand，I felt a burst of pride．I was happy that both of them received the best gift for New Year．For Jane—a scarf to keep warm，and for David—a taste of happiness of giving．
