Having worked with ACE(African Conservation Experience) before. I knew that I had their complete support throughout my trip.
At the airport I was introduced to other volunteers who would be travelling to Care for Wild Rhino Sanctuary with me. Upon arrival at the local town of Care for Wild, Nelspruit, we were met by a worker and we quickly got a sense of the importance of the project we were attending.
My first proper day at the project. Just wow. To feed a rhino(犀牛) baby. To approach(接近) them with their cute(可爱的) mouths open wide in preparation for their milk. The heartwarming moment was bittersweet(喜乐参半) though, as I remembered the reason these sweet babies were here… their mothers were killed. Hearing the stories that resulted with each beautiful baby arriving at the project was heartbreaking. I put all my heart into the work at this project.
Every day at the project was full of hard work. If you think it’s all about getting to cuddle(搂抱) and play with a baby rhino, that thought is wide of the mark as it’s not the purpose of this project. Preparing milk feeds. Bush walks. Night rides. The anti-poaching(反盗猎) dog unit training and the mounted(骑马的、安装好的) unit checkups(检查、核对). But all the hard work was so worth it to see the babies running around or rolling in the mud(泥浆).
If you are considering volunteering at Care for Wild, do it. Yes, it is hard work. Yes, you will be tired. But trust me when I say it is all so worth it. I have left with a great amount of love for this animal and I will continue to be a supporter of their care and protection. I hope that one day, rhinos will be able to live in the wild freely. Until then, it is up to us to continue to work hard towards it. What are you waiting for?

A storm hit Houston, Texas, on Tuesday. It brought heavy rains and rising floodwaters(洪水). By Tuesday night, some parts of the city had received 10 inches of rain. Police and firefighters helped people move to safe places. They also saved people from cars and buses that were stuck on roads.
Certain areas around Houston were hit really hard. In just four hours, more than seven inches of rain fell in Sugar Land in the southwest of Houston. Cars could not pass through any of the area’s main roadways. On Twitter, Sugar Land city officials asked people to get to high ground.
Tuesday’s rain hit parts of Texas that Hurricane Harvey had already damaged almost two years ago. Hurricane Harvey in August, 2017 was the second most costly hurricane in US history. It caused $125 billion worth of damage in Texas. In the Houston area, 36 people died and about 150,000 homes were flooded.
A spokesman for the Harris County Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Management said that this week’s rain“is not in any way a Harvey-level event”.
But the worst may not be over yet. People will have a break from the heavy rain on Wednesday.
According to the National Weather Service, the Texas Gulf Coast will continue to experience heavy rain later in the week. “Today should be our quietest over the next few days for rainfall,” said Don Oettinger, a National Weather Service meteorologist(气象学家).
Houston Fire Chief Samuel Peia warned, “As there is too much water on the ground and flash floods are likely to happen, we hope people are careful of what they’re doing and encourage them to stay home. There’s no sense in putting yourself, firefighters or anybody in danger needlessly.”
8、What are Paragraphs 1 and 2 mainly about?
A.Climate change in Houston. B.Flood prevention in Houston.
C.Heavy floods hitting Houston. D.People fighting floods in Houston.

C.It was less serious than this week’s rain. D.It was the biggest hurricane on record.
10、What can we learn from the weather report of the National Weather Service?
A.Fine days are coming. B.It will rain a little non-stop.
C.A hurricane is unavoidable. D.Floods will continue.
11、What did Samuel suggest local people do?
A.Stay indoors. B.Join firefighters.
C.Give up needless things. D.Comfort those who lost homes.
Wikipedia(维基百科) started in 2001 and has quickly gone from having just a few pages to having millions of pages with all kinds of information. It is even an ad-free website as it receives money from donations(捐赠).
Wikipedia is one of the most useful sites for students across the world. But because Wikipedia allows the public to freely edit(编辑) pages, should teachers allow their students to use the site to help them with their studies?
History teacher Luca Signore said, “I think it has good information and it is great for a starting point as you can quickly find information. I use it myself. However, it still gets edited by people who are not experts. You have no way of knowing whether something is completely true for certain.”
Students agree that Wikipedia may be the easiest site to get information from and it is especially helpful in history classes. Junior Alison Snyder believes, “You can use it for general background information, but as much as I’d like to, we shouldn’t be able to cite(引用) Wikipedia.”
Teachers should be able to allow students to use the site on a regular basis as the site is an amazing tool for students to quickly and easily get information for a class. However, it is clear that students shouldn’t be allowed to cite sources as some of the information might be a little bit incorrect.
Junior Maxine Moss agrees. “Yes, students should be able to use it on a regular basis because it is probably the easiest site to find information, but it is hard to tell if certain things are totally true.”
It is agreed that students should be allowed to use the website to get information as pages are, for the most part, fairly correct. However, citing items is a totally different story as the pages used on Wikipedia could have incorrect information and there are so many other sources out there with similar information from experts on certain subject matters.
12、What is good about Wikipedia according to Paragraph 1?
A.it can be freely edited. B.It was created by teachers.
C.It has no advertisements. D.It provides free information.
13、What do we know about Luca Signore?
A.He seldom uses Wikipedia.
B.He is against people editing Wikipedia.
C.He doesn’t allow his students to use Wikipedia.
D.He believes Wikipedia should be used in certain ways.
14、How does Maxine Moss agree with Alison Snyder?
A.Wikipedia is full of little mistakes.
B.Wikipedia is more trouble than help.
C.Wikipedia is helpful to some degree.
D.Wikipedia is not proper for students.
15、What does the author think of citing information on Wikipedia?
A.It is risky. B.It is boring.
C.It is a wise choice. D.It is OK for beginners.
二、七选五
16、 Over the past ten months of the pandemic(疫情) life, cooking has become a shelter(庇护、避难所) for me. New York Times food editor Sam Sifton referred to Korean fried rice and said“it improves moods, atmospheres and weeks alike”. ①_______ I’d argue it improves physical health, finances(财政、金融) and skills, and reduces stress. Really, cooking is a rewarding(有益的) thing you should do these days.
Cooking food for yourself is beneficial to your physical health. When you cook your own food, you control exactly what goes into your body. It’s the best possible way to “dial in(拔入)”or clean up your diet. ②_______ A recent survey has found that twice as many Americans are cooking at home than a year ago, and that nearly a quarter are doing so in an effort to eat healthier.
③_______ It’s considerably cheaper than ordering from restaurants, or buying prepared food from supermarkets. It’s found that ordering takeout(外卖食品)is five times more expensive. The difference is more obvious if you’re cooking for a family.
In terms of improving cooking skill, you can’t help but improve if you do it over and over again. With so many other outlets(出路、销售点) for hobbies shut down right now, why not view your kitchen as a mini universe to be explored? You’ve got the tools, not to mention the human requirement to eat. I can’t think of another hobby where your body physically requires you to practice several times daily. ④_______
How does cooking relieve stress? You might be wondering. ⑤_______ If you’re organized enough to cook meals in advance, you end the weeknight dilemma(困境、进退两难) of “what’s for dinner”. Furthermore, as you get better at cooking, you will spare the need to order food.
A.Cooking helps kids develop many hobbies.
B.Actually, cooking can bring more benefits.
C.The act itself can be calming to some people.
D.From a financial aspect, cooking cannot be beaten.
E.You can save money as well as improve your mental health.
F.If improving health is your main reason for cooking, you’re not alone.
G.You’re likely to improve your cooking skills and they will stick with you for life.

That was ten years ago, yet it was still fresh in Peter’s childhood memory. At a very young age, he realized the power of words. It was a sunny day. Peter was covered in dust as he rolled on the ground, playing. Just an ordinary day in his second grade class, that’s what Peter thought. His teacher waved at his mom from far away and then walked closer and asked, "Mrs Bit, can we talk for a second? " she said, smiling.
Peter’s mom walked into her office and there they had a conversation. Peter wasn’t allowed to be with his mom at that moment, so he waited outside, assuming that it would be great news. Peter’s teacher thanked his mom as she walked away. His mom looked at him and he felt immediately that something was not okay. As soon as they returned home, Peter couldn’t help asking what they talked about. He asked more than he should. He didn’t care if his mom would get annoyed. He just wanted an answer.
"You’re failing. She said that you’re the only one failing in her class. And she’s pretty sure that you’re not going to make it to the top section. I’m sorry." Mom said as she held back her tears. Those words ruined every piece of his childhood. That moment placed a ton on his shoulders. Peter was seven years old at that time.
When Peter reached sixth grade, no hope could be seen in his eyes. Failing grades, reports from teachers and the comparisons between him and other students made him feel like he was nothing. No one believed in him, including his parents. He had no friends. Worst of all, he had no confidence in doing anything well.
Peter transferred to another school by seventh grade where he met this teacher. Everybody called her "Miss Diana". She was sweet, jolly, and different from teachers Peter had before. She treated every student equally. One day, she had to choose a leader for a group.
Paragraph 1：
She went up to Peter who was sitting there alone.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2：
Peter successfully led the group.

32、答案：①whose②varieties③saved④However⑤to end⑥Without⑦ Having spent⑧a⑨less⑩His
解析：①考查定语从句。句意：周六下午,世界各国领导人、国际组织代表和专家悼念中国科学家袁隆平逝世,他毕生致力于高产水稻品种的研究,帮助养活世界各地的人们。句中先行词为Yuan Longping,和空后的名词lifelong research之间存在所有关系,所以用关系代词whose。故填whose。
②考查可数名词复数。句意：周六下午,世界各国领导人、国际组织代表和专家悼念中国科学家袁隆平逝世,他毕生致力于高产水稻品种的研究,帮助养活世界各地的人们。根据上文high-yield rice以及前面的research可知,空处为名词的复数形式。故填varieties。
③考查时态。句意：中国科学家袁隆平通过培育出第一种杂交水稻品种,使数百万人免于饥饿。根据句意可知,这件事发生在过去,用一般过去时。故填saved。
④考查副词。句意：然而,他终结饥饿的精神和使命依然存在。前一句意为"不幸的是,他今天因病去世,享年91岁。",后一句意为"他终结饥饿的精神和使命依然存在。",两者之间存在转折关系。故填However。
⑤考查动词不定式。句意：然而,他终结饥饿的精神和使命依然存在。非谓语动词担当mission的后置定语,表示还未完成的事,用不定式。构成固定搭配：the mission to do……的使命。故填to end。
⑥考查介词。句意：如果没有他的贡献,世界上会有更多的人遭受饥饿。根据下文"more people would have suffered from hunger in the world."可知,空处意为"没有"。再根据空后的"his contribution"可知,词性为介词。故填Without。
⑦考查现在分词。句意：袁隆平是中国工程院院士,他花了50多年的时间研究杂交水稻,帮助中国成为一个伟大的奇迹,用不到世界总土地的9%养活了世界近五分之一的人口。主句主语Yuan存在主动关系,与spend之间为主动关系,且发生在主句谓语之前,所以用having done。故填Having spent。
⑧考查冠词。句意：袁隆平是中国工程院院士,他花了50多年的时间研究杂交水稻,帮助中国成为一个伟大的奇迹,用不到世界总土地的9%养活了世界近五分之一的人口。wonder意为"奇迹"时,为不可数名词；意为"一个……的奇迹",则为抽象名词具体化用法,前面用不定冠词修饰。故填a。
⑨考查形容词比较级。句意：袁隆平是中国工程院院士,他花了50多年的时间研究杂交水稻,帮助中国成为一个伟大的奇迹,用不到世界总土地的9%养活了世界近五分之一的人口。根据空后的than可知,空处为形容词比较级形式。故填less。
⑩考查代词。句意：巴基斯坦Guard农业研究服务有限公司首席执行官沙赫扎德•阿里•马利克表示,他的去世不仅是中国人民的悲伤消息,也是人类的巨大损失。根据空后的名词passing可知,空处为形容词性物主代词。故填His。

34、答案：
She went up to Peter who was sitting there alone. She sat beside him and they talked. "I am planning a group activity and I’m wondering if you could be a group leader," she said cheerfully. Peter was surprised because he had never got such a chance and he even dared not get it. He hesitated at first. After years of being looked down upon, he didn’t have enough confidence in himself. But with Miss Diana’s encouragement, he decided to have a try.

Finally, they knew sharp words could destroy a child. From then on, Peter began to smile and felt the happiness again. Most importantly, Peter believed in himself again. And that is when Peter knew the power of words.
