She saved him and after a bunch of attempts at taking him to wildlife centers and vets, Nikki was disappointed at the lack of help. However, her mother Linda had experience in raising raccoons and after a little persuasion, took the little creature in.    They named him Little Hands and fell in love with the little raccoon. Linda and Nikki fed him, raised him, and eventually let him go. To their surprise, Little Hands kept coming back, sometimes after a few days, sometimes a few months. He would come back and ask for hugs, food, and just love.    Little Hands was taken care of by Linda. At first, he was set free onto her large property and was allowed to come and go as he pleased. He was very fearful of any human or animal that he didn’t grow up with, but would come back to visit them most nights. Linda would leave food out for him every night and sit outside on the porch swing before bed, waiting for his visit. The first thing he would do was that he would climb over to Linda on the swing, sit beside her, and want pats from her.    “Little Hands stayed with us for about two and a half months before he was fully released into the wild. He has always been a calm, peaceful raccoon, very loving and compassionate, even as he matured. But still wild enough he thrives on his own,” Nikki said. People asked Nikki what their reaction was when Little Hands returned to them. “Pure joy. And every time he came back it was a more and more joyous occasion especially because he wanted our attention as well as our food.”    At last, Nikki said: “Be kind. We share the planet with so many creatures that need to be respected. They are capable of complex social systems and emotions.”4、What is Nikki’s main reason for raising the raccoon?A.She was really fond of the raccoon.B.She was disappointed with her mother.C.She had experience in raising raccoons.D.She had difficulty finding proper help elsewhere.5、Why would Little Hands return according to paragraph 3?A.Because he could get some food and love.B.Because he wanted to express his gratitude.C.Because he was afraid of living in the wild alone.D.Because he liked playing on the swing with Linda.6、Which expression can best describe Nikki and her mother?A.Careful and curious. B. Kind and generous.C. Devoted and energetic. D. Warmhearted and caring.7、What can we know from the last paragraph?A.Humans must share what they have with animals.B.People should be in harmony with other creatures.C.Many creatures are good at socializing with people.D.Endangered animals need to be protected and respected.    Group exercise is one of the most helpful ways to improve physical fitness and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Group exercise is challenging, yet fun and empowering! Of course, everyone knows that exercise is good for the body. However, studies have shown that when exercise is performed in groups, it’s not only great for improving physical health but also for psychological health. It’s an opportunity to be social, release endorphins(内啡肽), and improve your strength. Additionally, group exercise creates a community feel and the shared common goal motivates participants to work hard. The instrumental support of taking on a fitness journey with others proves more fruitful than going to the gym alone.    Another benefit of group exercise is the informational support participants receive from the instructor. Many people fear the gym because they feel lost and don’t want to embarrass themselves. If you feel you can relate, then group training is an even better choice for you. It’s a great opportunity to learn more about fitness through the clear instruction and supervision (监管) of a fitness instructor. If you’re tired of wandering around the gym wasting time and becoming bored, you can attend an upbeat group fitness class that’ll keep your workout on track. Don’t let fitness frighten you!    If you’re serious about wanting to live a healthy lifestyle, it’s extremely important to surround yourself with people who’ll provide you with the proper emotional support. I wouldn’t scold(训斥) anyone for deciding to party on weekends and in turn I wouldn’t expect anyone to give offence to me for focusing on my health. Surround yourself with people who uplift, encourage and understand you! Make fitness even more fun by trying something new or any group fitness class, with a friend. Plan to go for a jog together. Then try a fun healthy restaurant or fresh juice bar! Fitness can be both fun and social!    Surrounding yourself with people who’ll provide you with respect and support can do a lot of good while working towards reaching health and fitness goals. First, decide to do it for yourself and work towards staying positive. Then make sure the people you surround yourself with are supportive. Don’t let negativity ruin your motivation.8、What does the first paragraph focus on?A.The greatest challenge of group exercise.B.The best way to improve physical fitness.C.The contribution of group exercise to psychological health.D.The shared common goal in performing exercise in groups.9、What does the underlined word “upbeat” in the second paragraph probably mean?A.Cheerful. B. Average. C. Careful. D. Advanced.10、What is the author’s suggestion according to paragraph 3?A.It is joyful to party with positive people.B.It is necessary to have a colorful lifestyle.C.It is amazing to try a fun healthy restaurant regularly.D.It is important to surround yourself with supportive people.11、What would be the best title for the passage?A.Seeking Support  B. Supporting HealthC. Improving Your Strength D. Building up Fitness    Collingwood Children’s Farm is an inner-city oasis(绿洲). For 40 years, this beautiful farm with pigs, chickens and vegetable gardens has provided a taste of the countryside in Melbourne.    The four-hectare farm is no throwback to the past. It is providing a glimpse of our future. In a time when a changing climate and population growth are causing concerns about food security, the farm is becoming a model for how we might change our approach to inner-city food production. The farm’s primary purpose has always been to support those in the community experiencing disadvantage. However, the not-for-profit has also spent the past year becoming a model of best-practice inner-city agriculture.    Since mid-2020, an unused field has slowly been transformed into a bio-intensive vegetable garden. On top of that, new horticulturalists(园艺专家) have been employed to help build vegetable gardens that will help the soil. Horticulturist Rachel Freeman is head of the farm’s vegetable gardens. Freeman says she is a big believer in the importance of “linking people to food systems and showing people what you can do”. When it comes to showing how to educate and engage the community, this farm is hard to beat. In 2019, Collingwood Children’s Farm had an average of 15,000 visitors each month. In April 2020, 17,000 people came through. At that time, Ash and Shacklock were harvesting fast-growing turnip they had sown (播种) between cabbages to make the most of the growing space.    Freeman says the land had a long history of food growing before it became the children’s farm in 1979. The Wurundjeri people cultivated food here for thousands of years before a group of nuns (修女) began growing vegetables on the site in the 1860s. Freeman says that the farm has been “in this amazing state of” change with many new projects under way. However, they are happening at a snail’s pace due to the farm’s focus on making volunteers a part of them, especially people with disadvantage. “We do the work slowly with volunteers,” Freeman says. “This is an active space not a botanical one.”12、What is the main purpose of the farm?A.To deal with global climate change.B. To set a model for inner-city agriculture.C. To produce safe food for local people.D. To support poor people in the community.13、What belief does Freeman hold?A.Education is the key to great success.B. Farms should be built on food system.C. People should actively participate in farming.D. People should attach importance to farming.14、Why did they sow turnips between cabbages on the farm?A.To satisfy children’s curiosity. B. To help cabbages grow better.C. To attract more visitors to join. D. To use the growing space fully.15、What can we learn from these new projects?A.They are aimed at involving volunteers.B. They have put volunteers at a disadvantage.C. They are gaining popularity among children.D. They have got into some financial difficulties.二、七选五16、    School days mean homework, studying, exams, and social interactions — not to mention getting up early every morning.
