Getting over these troubles can have an important influence on your daily life. Morin shares her most successful ways to overcome these difficulties.How Will You Measure Your Life? — Christensen, James Allworth and Karen DillonWhat do you think would make you happier at work? Perhaps high pay might be nice, or maybe some more admiration from fellow colleagues. Are you keeping a good balance in life? While career achievements can be satisfying, ignoring your family and friends can be harmful in the long run.Finding Your Element — Ken RobinsonHave you ever felt pressured to live your life in a certain way? Society often encourages you to graduate from high school at 18, enter university, and then become a professional person, get married and have children. This may work for some people, but for many people it can be limited. Everyone has a passion. Find out how you can break society’s strict rules and find your position in life.Emotional Intelligence — Daniel GolemanDo our feelings hold us back? Would we do better if we became unfeeling creatures? You probably let feelings cloud your judgment more often than you know. Goleman explains how you can avoid letting your feelings rule you and make better decisions in life.21．The first book is intended for readers ____________.A．who want to be popular among colleaguesB．who want to control their feelingsC．who are experiencing failuresD．who want to get high pay22．Which book suggests keeping a balance between work and life?A．Thirteen Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do.B．How Will You Measure Your Life?.C．Finding Your Element.D．Emotional Intelligence.23．What do we know about Emotional Intelligence?A．It helps us make wise decisions.B．It shows us the importance of emotions.C．It teaches us the way to live a different life.D．It tells us how to break society’s strict rules. BA nickname is a shortened form of a person's name. A nickname can also be a descriptive name for a person, place or thing. Many American cities have nicknames.Los Angeles has several nicknames. One is simply the city's initials, LA．It is also called "The City of Angels" because Los Angeles means “the angels” in Spanish.Los Angeles often has warm, sunny weather. So another nickname is “City of Flowers and Sunshine”. New York is called “The Big Apple”. So Los Angeles is sometimes called “The Big Orange” because of the fruit that grows in that city's warm climate.The American motion picture and television industries are based in Los Angeles. So it is not surprising that it is called “The Entertainment Capital of the World”. Many films are made in the area of Los Angeles called Hollywood. Millions of people visit the area. No trip to Los Angeles is completely without seeing the word “Hollywood” spelled out in huge letters on a hillside.Many movie stars live in Los Angeles. The city is sometimes called “Tinseltown”. This nickname comes from the shiny, bright and often unreal nature of Hollywood and the movie industry. Another nickname for Los Angeles is “La–La Land”, using the first letters of Los and Angeles. This means a place that is fun and not serious, and maybe even out of touch with reality.The city of Los Angeles is part of Los Angeles County. There are many smaller cities in the county. Beverly Hills, with its rich people, is one of them. So is Pasadena, with its Rose Parade each New Year's Day.A good place for watching unusual-looking people is Venice, an area on the west side of Los Angeles. A system of waterways designed after the Italian city of Venice has been built there.24．What's the purpose of the first paragraph?A．To tell us what a nickname is. B．To prove that nicknames are popular.C．To lead us into the topic to be presented. D．To tell us some people's nicknames.25．Which of the following is NOT the nickname for Los Angeles in the passage?A．LA．     B．City of Flowers and Sunshine.C．The City of Angels.  D．The Big Apple.26．Why is Los Angeles called “The Entertainment Capital of the World”?A．Because Los Angeles often has warm, sunny weather.B．Because many movie stars live in Los Angeles.C．Because there are many smaller cities in the county.D．Because the American motion picture and television industries are there.27．The underlined part “out of touch with reality” in Paragraph 6 can probably be replaced by “______”.A．fantastic  B．false   C．real  D．practical CWe all need to eat, and when we go to buy food at the supermarket, we’re offered many choices. But we often buy food that’s been produced in huge amounts and that’s traveled many miles before it ends up on our plate. So for some, growing their own food is a better choice – and it tastes good too!From growing vegetables in little pots on your balcony to taking care of a small plot of land, there are many ways to produce home-grown food. It can be backbreaking work digging, weeding and watering the soil, but the result is fresh, home-grown fruits and vegetables, helping us keep a ‘five-a-day’ diet.The recent Covid-19 pandemic(流行病) lock-down means demand for homegrown food has seen a comeback in the UK. Miriam Dobson from the University of Sheffield, told the BBC that some people have been spending a lot of their time on their plots, growing plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables – which, at times, have been challenging to buy in supermarkets. She says “Coronavirus has reminded people of the weakness within our global food system. In such a difficult time, interest in self-support rises.”But for those with limited space, a solution to grow your own vegetables lies closer to home – using pots. Sheila Brand lives in a third-floor flat in Rotterdam. She has managed to grow tomatoes and eggplants and is already harvesting raspberries. She told the BBC watching the plants grow “is very exciting: 'Oh it's got a new leaf!' ”As well as the benefits of saving money and enjoying tasty food, growing your own from a balcony or window ledge not only improves your well-being and immediate environment, you can actually grow a lot of vegetables. So, maybe it’s time for us all to get planting and develop our green fingers!28．A “five-a-day” diet (Para. 2) probably refers to a diet that include__________ every day.A．Five meals     B．Enough fruits and vegetablesC．Five kinds of rice   D．Plenty of water29．According to Para 3, home-grown food is getting popular again in the UK recently because _____.A．It’s more interesting, cheap and delicious.B．our global food system is doing harm to us.C．It saves the time and money on transportation.D．it can be hard to buy fresh food during the pandemic.30．According to the writer, where can you grow your own food if you live in a small flat?A．In a pot. B．On a plate. C．In a garden. D．On the roof.31．What does the writer imply in the last sentence?A．Growing your own food can do good to your health.B．Growing your own food can make your fingers green.C．Growing your own food can improve your gardening skills.D．Growing your own food can bring your family more happiness. DRed pandas are native to the high forests of Asia. They are only a little bigger than a house cat and considered to be endangered. Scientists reported last month that not all red pandas belong to the same species. There are two different species of this animal, not just one, a study found.The scientists reported finding major differences in three genetic markers between Chinese red pandas and Himalayan red pandas. Scientists identified the markers after studying DNA from 65 of the creatures. DNA carries genetic information for the development, growth and reproduction of living things.Recording the existence of two separate species could help guide efforts for protecting red pandas, scientists added. “Chinese red pandas live in northern Myanmar, as well as southeastern Tibet, Sichuan, and Yunnan provinces in China. Himalayan red pandas are native to Nepal, India, Bhutan and southern Tibet in China,” the researchers said.Researchers Yibo Hu and Fuwen Wei led the study. Their findings appeared in the magazine Science Advances.Scientists had earlier suggested there were two species of red panda. But the new study was the first to provide the genetic information necessary to allow such a judgment. International experts guess a total population of around 10,000 red pandas in the wild. The two species differ in color and skull shape. The Himalayan red panda is the less of the two.While they have similar names, red pandas and giant pandas are not closely related. Giant pandas are one of the world’s eight bear species. Red pandas are sometimes called living fossils because they have no close living relatives. They are the only remaining member of their mammalian family.32．What played a key role in telling the two kinds of red pandas apart?A．Life habits.   B．Body sizes.      C．Living places.  D．High technology.33．What do we know about the research result?A．It proved a nearly guess. B．It figured out the number of red pandas.C．It found two similar species of red panda.D．It proved one species of red pandas was endangered.34．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A．The red panda’s habitat needs changing. B．Red pandas and pandas have little in common.C．Red pandas are one of the world’s bear species. D．Red pandas are less than pandas in number.35．What can be the best title for the text?A．Red Pandas Are Mistaken for Giant PandasB．Red Pandas Are Becoming EndangeredC．Red Pandas Have Actually Two Different SpeciesD．Red Pandas Are More Precious than Giant Pandas 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。How To Make Your Wardrobe (衣柜)Eco-FriendlyMaybe you’ve started to buy recyclable products and carry reusable grocery bags.  36 ．Even when you’re doing all these, there may be something you’re completely ignoring — your wardrobe.

Looking forward to your good news.Yours,Li Hua
