Planning on watching a Premier League match, an FA Cup or a fierce England clash(比赛)? Head to one of these football friendly pubs and bars, where you can score wonderful surrounding with a cold beer and some delicious food.
The Belushi’s Sports Bar, London Bridge
Student-styled bar with lots of large screens, plus filling burgers and bar snacks. They’re strict with IDs, so bring one. Other Belushi’s can be found around London(Camden, Shepherd’s Bush, Hammersmith, Greenwich).
The Belushi’s Sports Bar, 161-165, Borough High Street, SEl 1HR
Pub on the Park, Hackney
True to its name, you can pretty much watch the match in the park-the gardens here are furnished with TVs and heaters. Admirable range of beers for a sports establishment.
Pub on the Park, 19 Martello Street, E8 3PE
Three Compasses, Dalston
Spacious gastro(美食的) pub with a few screens. You can enjoy home-made beer and award-winning burgers here(made with Angus beef we’re told).
Three Compasses, 99 Dalston Lane, E8 1NH
Famous Three Kings, Hammersmith
Winner of various sports pub awards. Screens everywhere you look. One of the gardens shows football when it’s warm enough. This is a Liverpool pub, but all comers are welcome.

An open-air swimming pool in Bedfordshire, England, proved very popular this winter. The Woburn Lido is usually open from May to September, but this year it stayed open to swimmers throughout the autumn and winter months too.
Until the lockdown(封锁) for England was announced on 4 January, outdoor pools were allowed to remain open. “Demand has taken us by surprise.” said Murray Heining, a volunteer at the Woburn Lido. Over Christmas and New Year, in order to keep up with the demand from swimmers, the lido(露天游泳) had to offer extra slots for people to dive in.
Cold-water swimming has grown in popularity in the UK over the past few years. A survey found that 7.5 million people in England had swum in outdoor pools, as well as lakes, rivers and the sea, in 2018. In some areas, such as the river Wharfe in Yorkshire, this new trend has prompted environmental groups to ensure that the water is cleared of pollution and clean enough for bathers.
Some people make it a regular practice; others just enjoy a thrilling dip on Christmas Day, Boxing Day or New Year’s Day. Every year around the UK, people are photographed jumping into icy water, often in fancy dress, and the recent festive period was no exception, despite freezing temperatures.
The Outdoor Swimming Society classifies temperatures below 6℃ as “Baltic” and from 6-11℃ as “freezing”. They advise people to get in the water gradually, so as not to shock the body. Likewise, they recommend warming up gradually, and not rushing the process by leaping into a hot bath when you get out. Instead, they suggest layering up and drinking something warm.
It wasn’t just the water that was cold — many people experienced a white Christmas; snow fell in several counties including Yorkshire and Suffolk. Paul Davies, the UK Met Office’s chief meteorologist(a scientist who studies the weather), said the forecast indicates “the likelihood of the cold conditions experienced recently continuing through January”.
4. Which of the following can replace the word “slots” in Paragraph 2?
A. Volunteers. B. Solutions. C. Opportunities. D. Positions.
5. What can we learn about cold-water swimming in the UK?
A. It is beneficial to environmental protection.
B. It has won people’s affections in recent years.
C. People only go cold-water swimming in festive period.
D. People go cold-water swimming to show off their fancy dresses.
6. What does the Outdoor Swimming Society advise people to do?
A. Shock the body gradually. B. Have some warm drinks when they get out.
C. Take a hot bath immediately. D. Avoid swimming in freezing temperatures.
7. What is the best title of this passage?
A. Swimmers Enjoy Chilly Dips B. Freezing Weather Hits Britain
C. The Woburn Lido Wins Popularity D. The UK Recovers from the Lockdown
We humans have an outsize influence on this planet, and our winged, finned, and four-legged neighbors are in their tough time. Many animals have died out in response to the pressures, but some survivors are adapting. Some animals are showing off never-before-seen behaviors, shifting their diets, and even evolving different shapes, sizes, and colors.
The shifts can’t be avoided and are likely permanent: There’s no going back to when wildlife was still completely wild. “There’s no place anywhere on the planet in its original condition. There are micro plastics at the bottom of the ocean, and Antarctica is melting. The world has changed because we’re in it,” says Tag Engstrom, a biologist at California State University.
African elephants in Mozambique’s Gorongosa National Park are some daring members of the animal kingdom, who have found a will and a way to change right along with it.
Normally elephants use their 6-foot-long tusks to dig wells in search of water, lift objects, rip bark off trees, and even battle lions. In other words, the ivory appendages(附属品) are not just impressive to look at — they are highly useful tools. So it might seem strange that a significant number of African elephants in Mozambique’s Gorongosa National Park, once an illegal hunting wildlife area, are now being born without tusks.
According to a 2021 DNA analysis published in the journal Science, that the elephants are born without tusks is no coincidence. After decades of being shot by ivory brokers, the leading elephants in some herds have passed down a trait that prevents the females’ prize possessions from growing in — and helps them avoid being hunted. No one knows yet how widespread these genes might be in the greater population of African elephants, or how the loss of tusks might affect the mammals’ survival overall. But the findings are a powerful, if depressing, reminder of the extremes a species might endure to escape from extinction.
8. How do the animals respond to humans influence?
A. Many animals have evolved four legs.
B. Animals can survive despite the tough time.
C. Some animals are developing different shapes.
D. Animals live in harmony with human beings.
9. Why are the shifts likely permanent?
A. We human beings are evolving.
B. Wildlife are not going back to the wild.
C. Plastics appear at the bottom of the ocean.
D. The planet is no longer what it was like before.
10. What can we infer from the 2021 DNA analysis?
A. The elephants evolve the new trait by chance.
B. Elephants in some herds are all born without tusks.
C. Genes will be widespread in the greater population.
D. The new trait may help elephants survive the extinction.
11. In which column of a magazine can we most likely to find the text?
A. Travel. B. Science. C. Puzzles. D. Well-being.
Do you see a bird right now? Can you hear one singing? If so, you might be getting a mental health boost. A recent study found that being in the presence of birds made people feel more positive.
Andrea Mechelli, a psychologist at King’s College London and one of the paper’s authors, admitted himself studying the natural world by accident. “I don’t have a particular agenda focused on nature myself. I wasn’t thinking we were going to demonstrate nature has a strong effect,” says Mechelli. Instead, he was searching for answers to why people who live in cities seem to be more likely to suffer from mental illness, particularly psychosis(精神病).
In 2015, he created the smartphone app Urban Mind to search for patterns in users’ environments. How crowded was their city? Did they feel safe in their neighborhood? Could they see trees? “Our first finding was that nature has a very powerful effect,” says Mechelli. He and his colleagues then wondered if some aspects of nature were more beneficial than others.
Their latest study included 1,292 participants, mainly in the United Kingdom and Europe, some of whom revealed a professional mental health diagnosis such as depression. For two weeks, study participants using Urban Mind were reminded to fill out a questionnaire three times a day. They were asked questions about their surrounding environment and their mental state. The data were recorded at the same time.
With the data collected, Mechelli performed a statistical analysis that found an obvious improvement in well-being when birds were present, even when removing other factors like the presence of trees or waterways. The mental health benefit was true both for people with diagnosed depression and those without any diagnosed mental health conditions.
Nature, Mechelli notes, isn’t a cure all. The presence of trees and birds, for example, didn’t result in a better sense of well-being if participants also noted their neighborhood felt unsafe.
12. Why does the author ask questions in the first paragraph?
A. To offer examples. B. To make comparisons.
C. To introduce the topic. D. To support the conclusion.
13. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The process of the research. B. The purpose of the research.
C. The findings of the research. D. The influence of the research.
14. The following would be investigated by Urban Mind EXCEPT ______.
A. the sight of trees B. the crowdedness of a city
C. the pressure from their work D. the security of a neighborhood
15. What can we know about participants in the latest study?
A. They all came from the UK.
B. They were diagnosed with depression.
C. They recorded their feelings by themselves.
D. They were required to answer different questions.
二、七选五
According to a latest theory, people each have their own “happy weight”. ____16____ Fortunately, you would be able to maintain your “happy weight” with ease by enjoying a balanced lifestyle and feel great: you sleep well and your mood is generally stable. Your “happy weight” doesn’t require you to follow a crazy diet, remove your favorite foods or punish your body with endless exercise. It can be reached and maintained by adjusting yourself to your natural hunger and fullness cues, enjoying healthy foods 80% of the time and spoiling yourself 20% of the time and taking up exercise that brings you joy. ____17____
Throw away the scale. ____18____ Choose to no longer let the number on the scale define your progress, mood for the day or your self-worth.
____19____ If you find yourself constantly dieting, or feeling stressed about food, take some time to reflect on our relationship with food. You can work with a dietitian to support you to heal your relationship with food.
Start engaging in movement and exercise you enjoy. If you’ve always viewed exercise as punishment, it’s time to change your mindset and start exploring sports you actually enjoy. Try new activities, join new sporting groups, or sign up for online sports apps you’ve been wanting to try. ____20____
In summary, when you’re at your “happy weight”, you feel great, confident and present in life. You have a healthy relationship with food — but most of all, you no longer allow the number on the scale to decide your worth and happiness.
A. Always maintain a strict diet.
B. Work on your relationship with food.
C. You’ll regain the joy in moving your body.

第二部分、读后续写
My husband’s sister-in-law died of cancer at 33, leaving a confused son Todd in the care of his father, who was not able to handle his own life. For the next 6 months, Todd was not only dealing with his personal world torn apart, but he was often laughed at and bullied(欺凌) by his classmates. What to do with Todd became the topic of family meetings and discussions.
Several of my husband’s relatives wanted to invite Todd into their homes and families, but they hadn’t made a decision yet. Our family of five — my husband, our three young children, and I — lived miles away from the rest of the family. Perhaps the best solution would be to remove Todd from his current location. After many serious discussions, we decided to take on the challenge. We would give him a fresh start — a new life.
We also determined that the choice to live with us must be Todd’s. When he was asked, he replied YES as if he had found a life-saving raft in an ocean of helplessness. That does not mean he was not afraid — he was terrified. I was, too. What if I could not be the mother he needed? How would my other children accept him? The day he was to arrive, I prepared my daughter, aged eight, and son, aged seven(the baby was too little) to help them understand that their cousin was coming to live with us and would be like an older brother. Their little minds thought it was wonderful!
When Todd arrived, he stood in the doorway, his face white with fear. He knew, and I knew, that the next step he took would change our lives forever. At ten years old, he had already experienced more emotional pain than most people do in a lifetime. “Todd, come in,” I said. “We are so excited to have you here. Come into the kitchen. I’ve made a cake.” I hoped my words were welcoming and cheerful.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Todd still stood there, not moving.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
At that moment, Todd couldn’t hold back his tears any more.

本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了成为一名优秀的记者所需要具备的一些条件。

My Favorite Band
When it comes to the band that I love most, I can’t help thinking of the Beatles.
I’m a biggest fan of the band. When they exploded into the music scene in 1962, they were a force for change, with their changeable music styles — form basic rock and roll music to complicated and progressive sounds. Their music is always joyous and hopeful for a better future. Listening to their songs always gives me inner strength to face everything in life.
You should definitely listen to their song-I bet you’ll like them!本篇书面表达属于应用文。假如你是李华,你校英语报社为即将举行的校音乐节展开了“My Favorite Band/ Musician”为题的征文比赛。请你写一篇短文投稿。

Todd still stood there, not moving. Suddenly, my daughter walked past me and led him over the doorstep while my son hurriedly set the chair and pulled him to sit down. In front of Todd, on the kitchen table, laid the cake baked just now. ‘We are a family now!’ said my son, sweetly. Todd put a piece of cake into his mouth slowly with tears welling up in his bright eyes. ‘Todd, you are one of us now.’ I said, slightly patting on his shoulder.
At that moment, Todd couldn’t hold back his tears any more. He nodded, tears rolling down his cheeks. I could feel the fear and sadness inside Todd melt away. Todd ate up the piece of cake and hugged me tightly, saying, ‘Thank you!’ From that day on, Todd lived with us and we treated him as our own family member. One day, he would become a healthy, well-adjusted young man. Nevertheless, that vision of a small, lost soul on my doorstep will be with me always.
本文以人物为线索展开。作者丈夫的嫂子年轻时死于癌症,留下一个儿子托德无人照顾,于是作者决定接受挑战,把托德接回家自己亲自照顾。而作者自己也有很多问题需要解决,万一托德无法适应怎么办?万一自己的孩子们不接受他怎么办?当托德来到自己家门口的那天,作者做了一个蛋糕迎接托德,希望能给他一个新的开始。
