My Grandfather's old Ford was greeted-not by flashing red,yellow or green-but by guardsmen armed with guns and appearing much out of place in such peaceful surroundings. As our vehicle slowed to a stop, I was scared by a huge machine gun, pointed in our direction.A young guardsman explained apologetically,“Sorry Sir,but we'll have to search your car.Just routine procedure.”

It was the election day in Benton, a small Tennessee town.Looking forward to a visit to the ice cream shop, I accompanied my grandfather as he drove the ten-mile journey to town. That day an air of uneasiness replaced the usual contentment one felt while passing aged buildings. Having spent the first ten years of my life here, I could detect any change in the town's mood.

Worried expressions on the faces of the few people were present on the streets. Everyone was in a hurry.No usual groups gathered to exchange local gossip. Most noticeable was the absence of children.

As the car was being searched,we learned the reason for such severe protective measures. Explosives would be brought into town to bomb the courthouse. As this unbelievable information was being given, I sat in panic. This was the same town where, only yesterday, old men in dirty overalls hung around the courthouse discussing the forthcoming election, and children ran freely on the sidewalks. Strangely,all this had changed overnight, and our peaceful country and the glorious right to vote were beginning to sound as a sour note.Marching through the streets, guards with guns gave the appearance of towns I had seen in the movies.

We moved on. Surely who could be so stupid as to go into that courthouse now? Thinking how wonderful it would be to get back to the safety of our farmhouse, I was somewhat scared when Grandpa parked near the entrance of the threatened building. The lines in his face carved with determination, he quickly mounted the steps to the building. That right was now even more precious. Grandpa would vote.

4.Why were they stopped on the way?

NFT art stands for non-fungible. Something fungible can be easily interchanged with anything else, like money. If you replace a $10 note with two $ 5 notes, then you'll get the same value. An NFT is different and can't be replaced with another. It's very close to buying artwork. Millions of copies of Van Gogh's Starry Night, but only one original. It has some unique features that can't be copied. The same goes with NFTs, each one being unique. NFTs can't be swapped for the same value,but meanwhile,their value can easily increase or decrease.

You might wonder how digital art can be unique. Any digital photo, video or image can be easily duplicated or downloaded countless times. A painting is very valuable because it's one of a kind and specialists can distinguish the original work from duplications. And that's exactly where NFTs have revolutionized the world of art. With NFTs, digital art can be symbolised and have a digital certificate of ownership. That's what makes digital art unique. NFTs have made the process of buying and selling digital art possible.

When you buy an NFT art like an illustration, you won't own that illustration and you won't be able to stop it from appearing on the Internet. Anyone can still download and copy that image. You won't own the copyright either.Not all NFTs include the copyright of the original work, so most probably you won't be allowed to reproduce or sell that illustration. You can only sell the NFT itself.

When you are buying an NFT art work, you are buying not the original artwork itself but the genuineness and the ownership of the NFT artwork. No one can question that you're the rightful owner of that NFT. You can sell it whenever you want at a higher or lower price. People buy an art piece because it's one of a kind. And NFTs have made each piece of digital art unique.

8.How does the author define an NFT artwork in the first paragraph?

A.By giving a definition.

C.By making a summary.

B. By listing details.

D.By making comparisons.

9.What does the underlined word “duplicated” mean in Paragraph 2?

A.Uploaded.

B. Updated.

C.Copied.

D.Registered.

10.Which of the following is one characteristic of an NFT art work?

A.Tradeable.

C.Replaceable.

B.Easy to interchange.

D.Free to download.

11.What will an NFT artwork purchaser be sure to get?

A.The copyright.

C.The original artwork.

B.The ownership.

D.The right to reproduce.

Millions of people throughout the world live in “food deserts”: areas where it's hard or even impossible to find healthy food. These food deserts promote poor health outcomes, are a drag on our economy, and give birth to more severe social problems. It's true that food deserts problem mainly affects people of low income. However, while it is a trend for a majority of us to refer to it as somebody else's problem, the deeper truth is that each individual can't be ruled out.

In Why We Can't Wait, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. wrote: “We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality（互惠）.Whatever affects one directly，affects all indirectly.”

He was right. And now, studies are backing it up. An analysis by the Milken Institute has found that treating the most common critical diseases, with consideration of losses in productivity, costs the world trillions of dollars every year and that even modest reductions in unhealthy behaviors could prevent 40 million cases of cronical（长期）illness annually，thus reducing the high costs of treatment．

While the impact of poor health in low-income communities falls most heavily on the people living in those communities, it ultimately impacts all of us because the costs of medicare and Medicaid, health insurance, government-funded health initiatives, lost wages, as well as hospital emergency care for the uninsured, are ultimately pooled and shared collectively. Ill health anywhere drives up costs and drags down quality of life everywhere.

Problems such as those in food deserts seemingly concern only a certain number of people, but in actual reality, very often they largely depend on each individual, even though the very communities that have been impacted the most by a problem have the greatest motivation, and the best insight, for finding solutions. We should all take pains, both for reasons of morality and sympathy, and for bottom line, self-interested financial considerations, to turn this around.

12.What do most people tend to think of the “food deserts”  problem?

A.It's severe.

C.It's impossible.

B.It's achallenge.

D.It's none of their business.

13.What does the author mainly want to tell us by using the analysis?

A.Critical diseases are getting serous.

B.Productivity has suffered great losses.

C.Unhealthy behaviors result in significant costs.

D.Many people ignore their unhealthy behaviors.

14.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?

A.Causes of ill health and low incomes.

B.High Costs of medicare and medicaid.

C.Health conditions in low-income communities.

D.Effects of poor health in low-income communities.

15.What does the author mainly suggest we do?

A.Make joint efforts.

C.Reduce social problems.

B.Develop healthy behaviors.

D.Put more medical investments.

If you enjoy helping people from all walks of life and are fascinated by the inner workings of the mind, a career as a counselor might be the right path for you. Professional counselors often work in private practice, but may also work in clinics, schools or nonprofit agencies.              16              It's a good idea to prepare your own list of reasons in advance.

Some have a strong desire to help others and to assist people with the challenges of daily living. You may have been told that you are a good listener, and others may often seem to feel comfortable believing in you. 17 While you won't always have a solution to every problem, your support and involvement will still make a difference in the lives of your clients.

At some point in their lives, many people in the helping professions have had a positive experience with a counselor. This is often a strong motivating reason that people choose to enter the counseling field. They want to offer to others the same support and assistance that their counselor once offered to them. 18

Some people are curious and fascinated by the field of psychology. 19   They are usually people who are already fascinated by these concepts and ideas before they begin their studies. They are interested to know what makes people tick and what motivates their behavior and actions.

20  They may have a desire to be a part of something larger than themselves. By connecting to others and helping them through the tough times,  they might find the real sense of reward and meaning that they've been seeking.

A.Some people simply feel that they were “called” to the field.

B.You've never thought about what will happen if you can't perform well.

C.That's the reason why you can't put down all your previous experiences.

D.Maybe you think it's rewarding to help others find solutions to their problems.

E.In their graduate studies, ambitious counselors learn relevant theories and skills.

F.It's clear that they were inspired by a beneficial personal experience with a counselor.

G.In these settings, hiring professionals may ask why you decided to become a counselor.

第二节（满分25分）

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整短文。

I stare at the one word scrawled on my paper. I know I should write down more, but I can't seem to. I can only write one. You see, my teachers will hand us papers to write down our resolutions right before the New Year's Day. I hate this because I can only think of one thing to write each time. It's just one simple word. Yet, I can't seem to accomplish this resolution.

I am currently almost eighteen. And ever since I was twelve, I have had this as my resolution. I am shyer than others and don't really know how to talk to people, I don't get invited to even the smallest of parties, which sucks because parties sound like the best thing ever. Chip bowls scatter on tables, sodas I have never been able to drink, and in some cases, beer. This all sounds glorious, but like I said before, I have never got to go to them.

That's why I have CHANGE as my resolution. If I can somehow just figure out how to talk to other people, then maybe I will be invited to parties. And as you probably know, New Year's Eve has one of the biggest parties of the year. And I really want to be invited to one before the end of high school. If I do that, then maybe I can finally have friends.

It was the day of the break when I heard some boys and girls talking about a big party on New Year's Eve next to me in the hall. I was about to put my headphones on and walk away when I suddenly heard my name in the conversation. “Do you think we should invite Ethan to the party?" One of the girls asked. “I don't know. Isn't he...you know...shy?” a boy said.

注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；

2．请按如下格式作答。

I acted like I didn't hear them but actually strained my ears to listen in.

New Year's Eve eventually arrived, along with the party.
