However, in 2015 when she retired, she hoped to have a new interest and began to take a year-long online painting class.“It blew me away," she says. She started painting striking portraits of women's faces, combined with short messages of hope almost every day. In five years, she's completed about 1,000 paintings.Lynn gives her paintings away. She started with friends, but that only went so far. Then she read about a movement called Art Abandonment, which encourages artists to leave their art in public places for anyone to pick up. That gave her the idea of putting her work into the hands of strangers through Facebook.Nearly every day, Lynn posts a painting on her Facebook page. The first person who responds saying they're interested in it has 24 hours to make a donation of $ 25 or more to their favorite nonprofit or an individual in need. Then the painting is theirs. Lynn doesn't ask for proof （证明）.She trusts that the people who want her paintings share her ideas.Five years later, she's still amazed at the results. Her paintings have raised more than $ 57,000 for nonprofits such as animal rescue centers, homeless shelters as well as for people who have lost their jobs. Sometimes Lynn hears that a painting helped someone at the moment they needed it most. "That gives me chills/ she says.To be a part of Lynn Colwell's art — for — a — cause effort, send her a friend request at facebook, com/ lynncolwell. Then keep an eye out for a painting that speaks to you. Lynn personally approves each request, so she asks for your patience. Also, she spends most of her time in her art studio—there's painting to be done. "I wake up every day and can't wait to get started," she says.24. Why did Lynn take an online painting class?A. Her teacher once praised her. B. She desired to change her life.C. She needed another hobby. D. This kind of class charged little.25. What's the purpose of Art Abandonment?A. To encourage artists to donate. B. To make the public love paintings.c. To tell strangers to be kind to others. D. To improve the atmosphere of public places.26. How can a stranger get one of Lynn's paintings?A. By getting familiar with Lynn. B. By working voluntarily in a nonprofit.C. By contacting Lynn on her Facebook page. D. By donating at least $ 25 to someone in need.27. Which of the following words can best describe Lynn?A. Narrow-minded. B. Kind-hearted. C. Far-sighted. D. Selfish.CHealthcare staff and bank clerks have been on the front line of the health and economic crises striking the UK, but behind the scenes, another group of workers robots have been toiling away and overcoming both emergencies with no fear of COVID-19. But will COVID-19 speed up the rise of robots?Robotic Process Automation ( RPA)is software that robotizes repetitive back-office tasks. The National Health Service (NHS) has used it during the widespread disease to control demand and capacity planning in caring for all levels of patients day and night. Jason Kingdon, Blue Prism's new chief executive who is recovering from COVID-19, says," Before RPA, these were manual processes. You had to train a number of staff to put them in place. Now, you only need to train a single robot to manage the administration. M More than two fifths of bosses across 45 countries that responded to a survey by EY ( Ernst & Young) said they were planning on accelerating spending on automation technology to prepare for a post-COVID world.COVID-19 has already left tens of millions unemployed, so firms won't be short of cheap labour on the other side of the crisis. But experts still think AI will be the more cautious choice for companies. One of them said," It's important to remember that even in China, which has much lower wages, 12. 5 million manufacturing jobs have been cut over the past four years as more robots have been adopted. "However, AI is overhyped (过分提倡)in many ways and poor application could lead to a rise in anxiety towards automation. Again, we should think of history as a guide. A lot of workers riots (暴动)in the early 19th century happened during the continental blockade of the Napoleonic Wars when there was significant mess to trade in Britain. These things are not unrelated.28. What does the underlined phrase "toiling away" in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Walking slowly. B. Working lazily. C. Working hard. D. Walking toughly.29. What do Jason Kingdon's words in Paragraph 2 mean?A. He prefers to use robot workers. B. He has refused to accept robots, service.C. He wishes to employ more human staff. D. He dislikes the survey by EY.30. What's the author's attitude to robots?A. Supportive. B. Worried. C. Indifferent. D. Opposed.31. Which is the best title for the text?A. Robots Have Taken the Place of HumansB. COVID-19 Has Terrible Effects on Our LifeC. It’s Time to Stop Robots from Taking the Place of HumansD. COVID-19 Speeds up the Trend of Robots Replacing HumansDA tiny village in Alaska has experienced an increase in tourism in recent years as polar bears spend more time on land than on Arctic sea ice.More than 2,000 people visited the village of Kaktovik last year to see polar bears in the wild. The far north community is located in an area where rapid global warming has sped up the movement of sea ice, the primary habitat of polar bears. As ice has gradually moved to deep water beyond continental shelf, more bears are forced to remain on land to look for food.The village had fewer than 50 visitors annually before 2011, said Jennifer Reed, a worker of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. "Today we're talking about thousands of visitors, many from around the world each year," Reed said.Polar bears have always been a common sight on sea ice near Kaktovik, but residents started noticing a change in the mid-1990s. Because of the difficult situation, more bears started to stay on land, and researchers began taking note of more female bears making dens（兽穴）in the snow on land instead of on the ice to raise their babies.“U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service biologists began hearing reports of the increasing numbers of polar bears in the area in the early 2000s," Reed said. As more attention was given to the plight of polar bears, more tourists stated heading to Kaktovik.Most tourists visit in the fall, when bears are forced toward land because sea ice is the farthest away from the shore. Bruce Inglangasak, a local hunter who offers wildlife-viewing tours, said he has been offering polar bear tours since 2003 or 2004. Most of his clients are from Europe and the USA. "Many tourists stay several days in the village, which has two small hotels, Bruce said.32. Why do more polar bears stay on land?A. To search for food. B. To keep away from pollution. C. To observe climate change. D. To protect continental shelf.33. Where do polar bears prefer to live?A. On land.   B. In snow.   C. On sea ice.   D. Under water.34. Which can replace the underlined word "plight" in Paragraph 5?A. Difference.   B. Difficulty.   C. Extinction.   D. Experiment.35. What can we know about polar bears from the text?A. They like staying with people.    B. They lack people's attention.C. Their habitat is decreasing.     D. Their choice of food is changing.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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Do you want to become a famous singer?
