When I arrived here yesterday, I felt really excited. I came from Perth, a quiet town in Scotland, UK. Last year I wrote to Princeton University in New York and asked if I could come and study here. I never thought they would say yesbut they did, and now here I am!
Because of the time difference, I woke up at 2 o’clock. I went out to have some food. Sitting at a table by the street, I ordered a hamburger with chips. Then I walked back to my hotel and went to my room, which I knew was on the first floor. But in America, they say first floor instead of ground floor. So I went into a wrong room! I felt so embarrassed. That was the worst moment for me. The American woman who was in the room laughed and said she had had the same problem in England.
In the morning I phoned the waitress to ask for some tea. She couldn’t understand my Scottish accent(口音) and I couldn’t understand her New York one! When she brought the tea to my room, I told her I was British. And she invited me to a big party at the International Student Center. There I met lots of young people from all over the world. It was great! At last I felt at home there and really happy.
44. The writer came to the USA ______.
A. to visit a friend B. to study at a university
C. to work in New York D. to attend a big party
45. Why did the writer find it hard to sleep?
A. The streets were too noisy. B. She wanted to go back home.
C. She worried about her study. D. The time is different from Perth.
46. What was the worst thing that happened to the writer?
A. Going into the wrong room. B. Being laughed at by the American woman.
C. Eating at a table by the street at midnight. D. Speaking English in a strange way.
47. At first the writer and the waitress could not understand each other because ______.
A. the phone line was not very good B. the waitress was Scottish
C. they weren’t used to each other’s accent D. they spoke different languages
C
During the COVID-19 pandemic, many people under lockdown feel lonely and bored. John Dattilo from Pennsylvania University, together with some researchers, studied how to reduce(减少) loneliness and increase happy feelings during the pandemic.
According to their new study, reduced loneliness has something to do with enjoyable activities that require both concentration(注意力) and skill.
“When people concentrate on(全神贯注于) what they are doing, they enter a state(状态) called ‘flow’,” Dattilo explained. “Flow can be achieved by doing activities that we value and that require us to concentrate fully to use our skills.”
To achieve a state of flow, there must be a balance(平衡) between the challenge of the task and your skill level. For example, if you’re trying to create a difficult computer program but your skill level is low, then you’ll feel stressed instead of achieving “flow”. On the other hand, if the task is too easy, then boredom will set in and “flow” will not appear, either.
If you have artistic skills, for example, playing the piano or painting can lead to flow. So can things like skiing, writing and storytelling.
“When we enter a state of flow, we become focused, and we experience enjoyment,” Dattilo said. “When we leave a state of flow, we are often surprised by how much time has passed.”
However, watching television usually doesn’t help people enter flow, according to Dattilo, because there aren’t any challenges.
“People grow on healthy activities and challenges,” said Dattilo. “We hope this research will help people live fuller, happier and healthier lives.”
48. What did Dattilo study?
A. Why people feel lonely. B. How to reduce loneliness.
C. What enjoyable activities are. D. Why people like a new challenge.
49. How do people feel when they enter the “flow” state?
A. They are concentrating and happy. B. They feel time passes too quickly.
C. They feel stressed and tired. D. They are lonely and bored.
50. Which activity is possible to help people achieve “flow”?
A. Watching TV. B. Eating nuts. C. Writing. D. Chatting(聊天).
51. What can we do to reduce loneliness during lockdown, according to Dattilo?
A. Follow a healthy lifestyle. B. Learn as many skills as possible.
C. Do some enjoyable and challenging tasks. D. Complete impossible challenges.
D
It was about ten years ago on a cold rainy winter day. I was walking over to visit my dad, and although his house was only a short walk from mine, I was already wet. I knocked on his door and stepped in. Sweet smell from the kitchen touched my nose, and suddenly, I was eight years old again. Dad was making Grandma’s special sauce(酱).
When I was growing up, every Sunday after church(教堂), Grandma would make us a large Italian meal. She would slow cook her spaghetti sauce for hours. When it was done, we would mix it in the spaghetti. It always left our bellies(腹部) full, our hearts happy and the house smelling
wonderful.
I sat down with Dad. It felt so good having a meal like we used to when I was a boy. We talked about those old times and laughed over the memories, both good and bad. I didn’t feel cold anymore. My heart was warm, both my face and stomach were smiling.
Dad and Grandma have been gone for years now. I still miss them often. And although my daughter and I both know how to make Grandma’s special sauce, we don’t cook it as often as we can. Maybe it is because no matter how hard I try, I can never get it 100 percent right. I think that maybe I am missing an ingredient. Or maybe, it was love with which Grandma and Dad cooked it that made it so delicious.
52. What brought the writer back to his childhood?
A. The heart-to-heart talk with his dad. B. The cold and rainy winter day.
C. The church activities every Sunday. D. The smell of the special sauce.
53. How did the writer feel after having his dad’s meal?
A. Sad. B. Surprised. C. Joyful. D. Disappointed.
54. What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Sauce. B. Spaghetti. C. Ingredient. D. Meal.
55. What might be the best title of the passage?
A. How to Make Sauce B. Dinner with Grandma
C. Cooking with Love D. A Large Italian Meal

On 12 July, 1994, 27-year-old Jason Lewis left London to travel around the world. 56
He didn’t travel by plane, train or bus, and he didn’t go by car or in ships. Instead, he traveled across thirty-seven countries only using human power! He swam, used bicycles, skates, a kayak(皮艇) and a pedal(踏板) boat. And he went on foot!
For the first five years of his amazing journey, Jason traveled with his friend Stevie Smith. They left London and rode bicycles across Europe. 57 And when they crossed the USA, Smith went by mountain bike and Jason went on skates.
Later, Jason continued alone. He crossed the Pacific in his boat. He then travelled across Australia by kayak, bike and on foot. 58 It took him nearly ten more years!
59 A whale nearly hit his pedal boat in the Atlantic Ocean(大西洋). And an 82-year-old driver hit Jason and broke both his legs. 60
Now back in the UK, Jason organizes journeys for young people, teaching them about the environment. It sounds great!

D. They then went on a 111-day journey by pedal boat.

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或根据括号内单词的正确形式填空(1-3个单词)或根据音标填词。
“Hi, George! My name is Lori. I’m twelve. How are you? How are you doing in school?”
Back in the 1970s, 61 was a trend(潮流) in the United States called “chain letter.” Teens sent out letters to 62 (stranger) in the hope of getting more back. Through the use of the words given above, Lori Rubin started a lasting friendship 63 George Ghossn.
It was November 1975. Lori was in the sixth grade and George was an eighth-grader. In his reply to Lori’s 64 (one) letter, George introduced himself and his family, including a school photo of himself. Since then, the two 65 (continue) to exchange handwritten letters about once every month.
Lori and George, however, didn’t meet in person or even speak on the phone until 2017. They were so 66 (excite) at the sight of each other, they hugged and cried together.
George said Lori’s letters were beautiful. “She always knew the perfect thing 67 (say),” he said. “So 68 matter how sad I felt, her words could always pull me out of the darkness.”
Lori said she saw letter-writing as a form of art. Many young people today no longer value it. Because letter-writing 69 (take) a lot of time, it allows her to dig deep into her soul(心灵）to express what she is feeling. Both she and George have saved almost all of the letters they have exchanged over the years.
Now, George and Lori have been talking on the phone and on 70 [′səʊʃəl] media more often. However, one thing will never change-they will always exchange handwritten letters with each other.

I remember when I was in seventh grade, I was not good at English. Every time I was in trouble, my English teacher Miss Lee always gave me a hand.
In class, she encouraged me to practice speaking in front of others. After class, she advised me to read some English books. She was willing to communicate with me at any time. It worked! My English improved little by little. Now English is my favorite subject. More importantly, I have more confidence in myself. I’m very thankful for what she did.
I find that it is important to help others. So when there is someone that needs my help, I’ll reach out to lend a hand.
