You may be familiar with the following famous people,but have you heard of their graduation speeches,in which they either share their unforgotten experiences or give you some great inspiration(灵感).
Michael Dell,University of Texas at Austin
And now you’ve accomplished something great and important here,and it’s time for you to move on to what’s next.And you must not let anything prevent you from taking those first steps... You must also commit to the adventure.Just have faith in the skills and the knowledge you’ve been blessed(赐予) with and go.
J.K.Rowling,Harvard University
Half my lifetime ago,I was striking an uneasy balance between my ambition and the expectation from my parents who were not rich...But what I feared most of myself at your age was not poverty,but failure.The fact that you are graduating from Harvard suggests that you know little about failure,you might be driven by a fear of failure quite as much as a desire for success.
Steve Jobs,Stanford University
Sometimes life’s going to hit you in the head with a brick.Don’t lose faith...Your work is going to fill a large part of your life,and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work,and the only way to do great work is to love what you do.If you haven’t found it yet,keep looking and don’t settle.
Bill Gates,Harvard University
We need as many people as possible to have access to the advanced technology to lead to a revolution in what human beings can do for one another.They are making it possible not just for national governments,but for universities,smaller organizations,and even individuals to see problems,see approaches and deal with the world’s inequities(不公平) like hunger,poverty,and so on.

Oftentimes our family serves at a soup kitchen where they give out bags of food to needy families in our area.And we’ll help put those bags of food together and hand them out,among other things.
There are a lot of reasons why serving the community is important to me,but one of them has to do with my father.My grandfather died when my father was 4 years old and my grandmother had four kids all under the age of 5,all born pretty close together.That was a time when things were so bad in the country.There wasn’t work and often the family hardly made ends meet,so my grandmother put the kids in a children’s home so that they could at least have food to survive.
My dad said he never forgot the local charity would bring the kids a gift for Christmas.The kids worked hard in the children’s home and the only present they got was from the local charity.He never forgot this kindness and always appreciated the local charity for what it did when he was a little boy.
My dad was such a hardworking worker-family meant the world to him.I was the seventh baby in my family and my mother had me just after she turned 40.She was one of those high-risk pregnancy moms,and I’m so grateful she had me.My mom and dad made a happy home for us,and I’m so grateful for that.I hope my children are catching those lessons,not just from Mom and Dad,but from grandparents and everyone else in their lives.

Then he said,“I am going to give this bill to one of you,but first,let me do this.”He then made this bill into a ball.Then he said,“Who wants it?”Hands went into the air.
“Well,”he said,“What if I do this?” and he dropped it on the floor and stepped on it.He picked up the dirty,crumpled bill and said,“Who still wants it?”Hands went back into the air. 
“My friends,”he said,“You’ve learned a valuable lesson today.No matter what I did to the money,you still wanted it because it didn’t go down in value.It was still worth ￡100.”
“Many times in our lives,we’re dropped,crumpled,and stepped on by the chances we take and the things that happen to us.We feel as if we are worth nothing.But remember,no matter what has happened to you,you will never lose your value:you are always valuable to those who love you.Your value doesn’t come from what you drop or whom you know,but WHO YOU ARE.”

It’s reported that scientists in London have found the best diet for both humans and the planet.
If the world followed the so-called “planetary health” diet,each year more than 11 million early deaths could be avoided according to the scientists.For the health of the planet,they say the same diet will reduce (减少) greenhouse gases and save more land,water and animals.This new food plan is the result of a three-year project organized by The Lancet health journal.
Tim Lang,a professor at Britain’s University of London.He said,“The food we eat and how we produce it decide the health of people and the planet.” Lang added,“The world’s population is expected to grow to 10 billion people by 2050.If we want to feed everyone,we all need to change what we eat and the way we eat by improving food production and reducing food waste.”So,what do you eat on the “planetary health” diet?
The scientists who created the “planetary health” diet say it is largely plant-based but still has a little milk,fish and meat.The diet calls for cutting down red meat and sugar by 50 percent and increasing nuts,fruits,and vegetable.
Walter Willet of Harvard University in the United States also talked about the “planetary health” diet.He said,“More than 800 million people around the world do not get enough food while many more people have very unhealthy diets.”
The scientists think it difficult to reach their aim.But for them,doing nothing is also not a choice.Willet said,“If we can’t make the best diet,it’s better to try and get as close as we can.”
【语篇解读】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了伦敦几位科学家最近发现的所谓的“地球健康”饮食方式,及其对地球的好处。人们有通过改变饮食方式进而保护地球的潜力。最后阐述了这种饮食的具体内容以及这个项目探究的意义。

A.The taste of the food.
B.The number of population.
C.The climate and our living conditions.
D.The food we eat and the way we produce it.

答案D
解析细节理解题。根据文章第四段“The scientists who created the ‘planetary health’ diet say it is largely plant-based but still has a little milk,fish and meat.”可知,“planetary health” diet包含的大部分为植物,故选D项。

(2021·河南洛阳第一高级中学高一月考)
Do you have a spare room in your house?Do you like to share your drive way in front of your garage with others?Both of these can help you make money.　36　 
Perhaps the best-known example of a company in this field is Airbnb—an American web business which allows you to rent out your spare room to holidaymakers.It says it operates in 34,000 cities and it has 800,000 listings of rooms and apartments.　37　A British company is doing something with parking spaces.JustPark’s founder,Anthony Eskinaizi,says,“when I had the original idea,I spotted a driveway close to a sports stadium.It would have been so convenient if I could have just parked in the driveway rather than in a commercial car park.”　38　Around 20,000 people have advertised their spaces on the website,and he says around half a million drivers use it. 
　39　 They are people who run things like traditional hotels and commercial car parks.They are afraid of ending up losing money. 
　40　 Regulations for these new businesses are unclear.How will renting out your driveway affect your neighbour?Because this is a new business world,those rules aren’t there yet. 

A.And there is another problem.
B.A commercial car park is inconvenient.
C.And his great idea has proved a success.
D.But the new business of renting has its competitors.
E.They seem to have occupied the majority of the market.
F.But the government says no to the new business of renting.
G.Many people are benefiting from this new business of renting.
答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了线上租赁房屋和车位的商业新模式及其所面临的挑战。
36.G　根据上文可知,和人分享空房间和车库前的地方都可以帮助你赚钱。即很多人正在受益于这种新的租赁业务。G项和上文保持语意一致。
37.E　根据上文可知,美国的Airbnb在网络上做这方面的业务做得很好,在34 000个城市经营着800 000个房间和公寓,所以可推测出该公司占据主要的市场份额。
38.C　根据上下文可知,JustPark’s的创始人Anthony Eskinaizi做了一个出租停车位的生意,很火爆。大约2万人在网站上登记出租车位,有约50万名司机受益。所以证明他的想法很成功。
39.D　根据下文可知,从事传统的酒店和商业停车场之类的人恐怕最终会赔本。所以选择D项。
40.A　根据下文可知,这些新的商业法规尚不清楚。租你的车道上将如何影响你的邻居? 因为这是个新的商业世界,规则还没有。所以选A项(还有一个问题。)与上下文一致。
第三部分　语言运用(共两节,满分30分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
The true purpose of a business,Peter Drucker said,is to create and keep customers.“Customer value”has several definitions.I use the 　41　 to mean the total lifetime value of a company’s customer base.Companies can increase this value by 　42　 more customers,earning more business from existing ones,keeping them longer,making their experience simpler through digital improvements and so on.　43　 leaders have long understood the importance of concentrating on customer value rather than pursuing short-term profits or quarterly earnings,and they’ve become enduring customer loyalty leaders in the process.It’s worth noting that a number of loyalty-leading companies are able to 　44　 shareholder pressure,or avoid it altogether,because they are founder-led,customer-owned,or not publicly traded. 
Companies can 　45　 customer value in a variety of ways:To increase 　46　,enterprise software companies sometimes charge corporate customers change fees that can raise the total cost of ownership to as much as three times the original price.To reduce operating costs,restaurant chains sometimes 　47　 frozen and precooked ingredients in place of fresh and made-to-order food.The resulting profits may look good on the income statement.Such strategies may even lead to short-term earnings growth.But they also 　48　 potential customers and encourage disloyalty. 
Given the importance of customer value,leaders should track it as much as they track other key assets (资产),such as buildings,machinery,and marketable securities.They also should reveal it in their quarterly and annual earnings releases so that investors can make 　49　 judgments about company performance and how it compares with that of industry peers.But most companies 　50　believe that measuring customer value is too difficult or costly.They continue to rely on a centuries-old accounting tradition that emphasizes physical and financial assets,and neither income statements nor balance sheets offer much 　51　 into the value of a company’s customers. 
As investors wake up to the importance of customer value,however,many growth-stage companies now direct investors’ attention to 　52　 in growing the value of their customer base.Some public companies increasingly report various types of customer value metrics (指标).One of the UK’s top energy suppliers E.ON,　53　,reports year-over-year customer counts in its financial report.“As a customer-focused company,”E.ON noted,“we see customer value as crucial to our success.” 
This is a start,but because there are no customer-value reporting standards or requirements,investors still have a(n) 　54　 picture.The minority of companies that do provide customer value information decide for themselves what to disclose.　55　,firms may calculate customer metrics differently or change them to tell a desired story,or simply stop reporting them if they fail to go with the company’s preferred narrative. 
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了顾客价值对于公司发展的重大意义。

C.acquiring D.inspecting
答案C

43.A.Considerate B.Visionary
C.Determined D.Powerful
答案B
解析considerate体贴的;visionary有预见的;determined决绝的;powerful有力的。该空后提及“领导早已理解客户价值的重要性”,这里强调的是那些有远见、深谋远虑的领导。故选B项。
44.A.resist B.relieve
C.intensify D.maintain
答案A
解析resist抵抗;relieve减轻;intensify加强;maintain维持。根据后句的“or avoid it altogether”,可以判断该空与后面的句子在语义上表达的是同一个意思,即抵御风险。故选A项。
45.A.raise B.adopt
C.calculate D.destroy
答案D

解析fully彻底地;hardly艰难地;readily毫不犹豫,迅速地;wrongly错误地。由该空前面的but可以推断出,在现实当中,大多数公司并没有像文章中那样做,而是理所当然认为衡量顾客价值的方法不可取。故选D项。
51.A.suspicion B.extension
C.literacy D.visibility
答案D
解析suspicion怀疑;extension拓展;literacy素养;visibility可见。因为上文提及好多公司并没有衡量顾客价值,自然也就没有可看得到的相关数据。故选D项。
52.A.sacrifice B.success
C.prejudice D.expense

53.A.as a result B.for example
C.on the contrary D.in general
答案B
解析as a result因此;for example例如;on the contrary恰相反;in general大体上。作者在这里以英国能源供应商的实际例子来支撑客户价值意义这一观点。故选B项。
54.A.incomplete B.depressing
C.convincing D.vivid
答案A
解析incomplete不完整的;depressing沮丧的,萧条的;convincing有说服力的;vivid栩栩如生的。前文提及“This is a start,but because there are no customer-value reporting standards or requirements”可以判断,对于这一“客户价值”问题还有许多事情亟待完善,所以对于投资者来说,图景是不完整的。故选A项。
55.A.Instead B.Further
C.Otherwise D.Therefore
答案B
解析instead反而,代替;further进一步,再者;otherwise否则;therefore因此。该空前后提及的两种情况是递进关系,所以使用“更进一步”较为合适。故选B项。

答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美国的金融师Anne Kersten通过开办家庭讲习班来帮助孩子明智地分享、储蓄和花钱,并以自己的女儿为例来说明孩子学会理财的重要性。
56.a　考查冠词。形容词financial修饰可数名词teacher,且financial的首字母的发音为辅音音素,所以用不定冠词a。故填a。
57.designed　考查过去分词。分析句子可知,workshops与designed在逻辑上是被动关系,所以用过去分词。故填designed。
58.that/which　考查定语从句。分析句子可知,workshops为先行词,在后面的定语从句中作主语,所以关系词为that/which。故填that/which。
59.wisely　考查副词。这里用副词修饰动词share,save,spend。故填 wisely。
60.or　考查连词。either...or“或者……或者”为固定短语。故填or。
61.were　考查动词时态。事情发生在过去,用一般过去时,主语为her daughters,所以be动词用were。故填were。
62.goals　考查名词的数。goal为可数名词,目标不止一个,所以用goals。故填goals。
63.studying　考查固定搭配。sb+spend+时间+(in)doing sth意为“某人花费时间做某事”为固定用法。故填studying。
64.from　考查介词。graduate from意为“从……毕业”,故填from。
65.to help　考查动词不定式。分析句子可知,动词不定式作目的状语。故填to help。

参考范文
Can Money Buy Happiness?
Different people have different opinions.Some think yes,while others hold the opposite.
It is true that with enough money one can buy all the things one wants,and live a life of comfort and security.However,it is equally true that a lack of money causes great distress.It is a common view that money is the root of all evil.The pursuit of money drives many people to cheat and steal.In some places there is nothing that cannot be bought with money,resulting in corrupt societies where everybody is miserable.
So,money does not necessarily mean happiness.It all depends on how it is used.If we make honest and sensible use of money,it can be a stepping-stone to happiness.Although money cannot buy happiness,it can make happiness possible if it is employed sensibly.

Having been a stay-at-home mom for 26 years,Atlanta-born KC just turned 50 and sought a job.She was not just looking for some thing to do.Putting four kids through college had left her in severe financial problems.Getting a job was a must!
From childhood,all KC wanted to be was a mom.“That’s all.I’m just a mom who stayed home with my children and created a good and comfortable home for my family.”She was not sure why that ambition was so strong for her.“My mom worked full-time,so I did not see her often.Maybe because I wished she was at home with me,”KC said.
So after the birth of her first child,KC gave up her job and spent the next 26 years taking care of her children and family.But after such a long time,she wanted to find a job.
She realized the difficulty of the situation.When she sent out a resume that had a 26-year-gap,she knew it was lucky if she could even get an interview,let alone an offer.On the other side,her education was also one of the obstacles.The fact that she didn’t go to college was influential.At the time that she graduated from high school,it wasn’t common for girls to go to college.It was only a dream.
So after her own experiences,she advised others that,“Get a college degree!I wouldn’t change a thing about being a stay-at-home mom,but do something—no matter how small—to keep your skills up to date.There are so many choices these days that it would be easy to do while being a full-time mom.
KC would still like to get a degree and discussed it with her husband.Her husband thought that she needed to get a job first,then went to a part-time school.She agreed.
With a college degree seemingly impossible at the moment,KC wanted to develop her skills so she would be ready for the workforce.She wanted to keep up with current technology.But it was hard.She took a class on skills and loved to learn new soft wares.
