Michael Yellow-lees set off to complete a 5,000-mile walk across Canada in the spring of 2021, wearing a kilt (短褶裙) and carrying a few items in a handcart, including a guitar. The 32-year-old musician from Dunked, Scotland, walked from the shores of the Pacific Occam to the cast coast of Newfoundland on the edge of the North Atlantic with his pet dog, Luna, an Alaskan husky, by his side.
Speaking about the Scottish Highlands, Mr. Yellow-lees said, “It is a beautiful landscape, but with a strong sense of sadness because of the absence of woodland, wildlife and people. So I decided to walk across the great wildernesses of Canada to raise funds for Trees for Life, a Scottish rewinding charity, and its work to restore Scotland’s Caledonian Forest.”
The enthusiastic walker shared some of his experiences, including meeting black bears and hearing wolves cry loudly at night. He also mentioned a moment when he lost Luna after she jumped out of a little boat during a trip in the waterway section of the Trans Canada Trail in Nor-them Ontario.
Yet Mr. Yellow-lees was deeply touched by the warmth of the people along the way. In every town and village, people offered him food, shelter and donations. And he was accompanied into towns and cities by marching pipe bands and interviewed by newspapers, the radio and TV.
Steve Mickie wright, chief executive officer of Trees for Life, said, “We followed Michael’s journey across Canada with respect and admiration. Restoring native habitats and wildlife to the Highlands is a big task that no one can do alone. But Michael’s extraordinary journey is proof that an individual can really make a difference.”
Bob Davidson, one of Michael Yellow-lees’ friends, said, “This is not a slow walk in the park, but a long march with heavy equipment on the rough road at an incredible pace. He’s an amazing guy.”
24. What do we know about Scottish Highlands from the passage
A. It is located in the east coast of Britain.
B. It is a beautiful landscape but full of sorrows.

We have more ways to access music than at any time in history and a whole world of unfamiliar styles to explore. The thrill of discovering new songs and new sounds can enrich people of all ages. Except, most of the time, it doesn’t. Our willingness to explore new, unfamiliar music declines with age.
Academic s have coined the term “open-earedness” to describe this phenomenon. Until around the age of 11, children are generally happy to engage with unfamiliar music. Early adolescence sees a reduction in open-earedness, but is accompanied by an intense increase in interest in music more generally. Open-earedness increases slightly during young adulthood, and then declines as we age.
A major study involving more than 250,000 participants confirmed these changing behaviors. It also showed that the significance we give to music after adolescence declines and the amount of music we listen to reduces from a high point of 20% of our waking time during adolescence, to 13% in adulthood.
Researchers have different theories to account for these trends. One explanation for age-based reduction in music consumption simply assumes that responsibility-burdened adults may have less free time at their disposal (自由支配) to explore their musical interests than younger people.
Some interpret the observed decline in music engagement in terms of psychosocial maturation. Adolescents use music as an identity marker and engage with it to navigate social circles. Adults have developed personalities and established social groups. As such, drivers to engage with new music are lessened.
Some researchers argue that we shouldn’t use a person’s age to predict if their musical taste will stay the same, without first thinking about how we enjoy and use music at different stages of our lives. Teenagers tend to be very aware of what they are listening to. Adults who use music as motivation or accompaniment for activities such as exercise or household chores may be less conscious of the extent to which they actually do listen to new music.
28. What does the term “open-caredness” refer to in the passage
A. The ability to play music.
B. The willingness to explore new music.
C. The interest in music during adolescence.
D. The significance of music in daily life.
29. According to the study, how does the amount of music listened to change as we age
A. It remains consistent throughout life.
B. It increases from childhood to adulthood.
C. It peaks during adolescence and then decreases.
D. It gradually declines from childhood to adulthood.
30. What factor is suggested as one cause for a reduced interest in new music as people age
A. An increase in hearing sharpness.
B. Less spare time due to responsibilities.
C. An intense decrease in interest in music.
D. Changes in personality and social groups.
31. Which of the following is the best title for the passage
A. Music Consumption:A Lifelong Journey
B. Factors Influencing Music Engagement in Adults
C. Adolescents and Music: Identity and Exploration
D. Decline of Open-Earedness: Age Affects Music Exploration
D
“I’d like to have your problem!” It is a common remark made to underweight people, who tend to awake more envy than sympathy. However, underweight people have just as much trouble putting on the pounds as overweight people have losing them — they are also related to health risks.
The problem of the underweight is that they are unwilling or unable to eat enough, or they eat like a horse but still do not gain weight. They have a fast metabolism (新陈代谢)and can eat whatever they want without putting on kilograms. People with a slow metabolism deposit most of the energy they take in with food as body fat. People with a fast metabolism burn this energy off, producing heat.
To someone who is overweight, a fast metabolism may seem desirable. But from a medical standpoint it is a problem. Being underweight is usually accompanied by a lack of basic nutrients and / or trace elements. This increases the risk of developing disorders such as osteoporosis, weakens muscle function and slows the healing of wounds. Underweight people are often elderly, have little appetite or perhaps are no longer able to chew properly. People can also lose a lot of weight due to a serious disease or chemotherapy (化疗).
A potential health problem is also sometimes to blame. Even young, healthy people can be affected when they feel stressed out emotionally. A classic case is lovesickness. Your stomach feels as though tied up in knots, your nerves are shaky, and after two bites of food you are full. Before long, your body is running out of energy, and you either become sleepy or more nervous — in any case you eat even less and then enter a downward spiral (螺旋轨道). What will you do when your trousers get baggy, your eyes start to widen, your bones and teeth start to stick out, your energy level drops and your sensitiveness rises
32. What message does Paragraph 1 convey
A. Being thin is popular among the young.
B. Being fat is dangerous for an elderly man.
C. Either being fat or thin can be a health risk.
D. Losing weight is harder than gaining weight.
33. When are people more likely to be underweight
A. When they have no teeth to chew. B. When they suffer from a big illness.
C. When they are addicted to their work. D. When they have a slow metabolism.
34. What is the writing style of the last paragraph
A. Critical. B. Vivid. C. Abstract. D. Academic.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. Weight Matters To Health B. Mind Your Daily Diet
C. Fat Is A Risk Too D. Thin Is Not In

第二节
主要内容:
Daniel在KFC打工结束回家后,得知弟弟Eric偷骑他的摩托车撞坏了邻居Green先生的汽车左大灯,Eric因害怕未敢承认。Daniel决定承担责任,次日带着自己打工赚的钱去向Green先生道歉并赔偿。
续写思路:
第一段需体现Daniel的坦诚与责任感,详细说明事故经过,主动提出赔偿,并表达对弟弟行为的歉意。
第二段通过Eric的出现,展现他从逃避到勇于承担的转变,最终Green先生被兄弟俩的真诚打动,可能给予理解或宽容,突出成长与责任的主题。
Daniel cleared his throat and began to speak. “Mr. Green, I’m here to apologize for my brother Eric. He took my motorcycle without permission this afternoon and hit your car by accident, breaking the left headlight. I’m so sorry for the trouble he caused. It’s my fault too. I should have kept the keys safer.” He took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it over. “This is all the money I earned from my part-time job at KFC. I hope it can cover the repair cost.” His face turned red, but his eyes were firm with determination.
Just then, there came a knock at the door. Mrs. Green opened it, and Eric stood there, head bowed. “I… I’m sorry, Mr. Green. It was my mistake. I was frightened to tell you the truth, but Daniel taught me that it is more important than hiding to be brave and responsible .” He looked up, voice trembling but sincere. Mr. Green smiled gently, patting both boys’ shoulders. “I appreciate your honesty, boys. The headlight isn’t too expensive, and your courage to admit it means more than money. Let’s fix it together tomorrow.” Daniel and Eric exchanged a relieved glance, grateful for the lesson in responsibility and forgiveness.
