A
Over the centuries, London's River Thames is home to 180 of these "aits"—an ancient word meaning "small island".
Eel Pie Island
Most famous of all of these aits is car-free, as is Eel Pie Island, which got its name from a dish on the menu of a 19th century island hotel. The island's fame was promoted in the "swinging sixties "when, the bands —all great names of the day including Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones —played there. A 17-year-old youth, Davy Jones, also went along well with the Eel Pie Island crowd. And everyone came to know him better as David Bowie later.
Monkey Island
Monkey Island was an ait for the royal(王室的) family . Princess Margaret and her friends held a big party in the 1960s. Writers including HG Wells tended to visit this island too. It is not absolutely certain but generally believed that Monkey Island's name came from the Old English "Monks Eyot(ait)", because the first recorded settlers were Augustinian monks(僧侣).
Tagg's Island
Another royal ait, Tagg's Island, changed its name in 1872 when Thomas Tagg built the island's Thames Hotel. The island was also a busy parking site for houseboats. Among those who rented one was the author of Peter Pan, Scotsman JM Barrie. However, it was none of those celebrities(名人)who promoted Tagg's Island popularity, but the theater manager Frederick Westcott, who discovered Charlie Chaplin.
Oliver's Island
Masses of birds call this island home, everything from Canadian geese to . cormorants and herons. There's an unsolved puzzle connected to Oliver's Island. The story goes that a secret tunnel leads from the island to the Bull's Head pub in Chiswick as an escape route. Maybe it's true, though plenty have tried to find it without success. Ah, and the island's name? That's down to Oliver Cromwell, the great England leader, who supposedly took refuge(难民) there.

After twenty-two years' raising three children, I was about to be introduced to an unfamiliar
concept: the empty nest: Obviously, this was now my time. My time to dive into new experiences,
explore the world and spend more time in writing. Why, then, was I not excited?
My oldest child had just begun life on her own; the other two were attending college 1,100miles away, I missed them all terribly. My husband and I had moved to a neighboring state for a job opportunity. We hadn't yet met neighbors or made new friends, and most of my colleagues were only accessible through an Internet connection. I began to feel hopeless. I wasn't quite sure how to move forward.
"Why don't we go for a walk?" my husband suggested.
Then we discovered a track only a short drive from our apartment. The paved track winded along a river lined with bushes and towering trees. Ducks lazed on the riverbanks. Often, a blue heron(鹭) stood motionless on a rock in the center of the river. These small messages of nature provided me with a peaceful distraction, but only slightly lifted me out of my problems.
Still, I continued to walk the path.
One cloudy morning, I hiked up the track, and I saw an elderly, gray-haired woman holding the handle of her walking stick. She sped by me in the opposite direction like a marathon runner. I turned around to catch another glimpse of this one-woman wonder. She was definitely moving forward. She wasn't letting anything hold her back. Certainly not her age.
That's when it hit me. My fellow track users were pushing past whatever challenges they were experiencing. Why, then, was I not doing the same? My nest may have been empty, but it didn't have to be joyless. There I made a decision. I would rush home and fill my empty nest with joy.
39. Why was the author not excited according to the first two paragraphs?
A. She just felt lonely and empty. B. She had too much time to spare.
C. She couldn't contact her colleagues. D. She hadn't adapted to her new house.
40. What does the underlined word “distraction” mean in the fourth paragraph?
A. Solution. B. Relief C. Influence D. Strength.
41. Which of the following best describes the old woman?
A. Patient. B. Independent. C. Athletic. D. Strong-willed.
42. What is the best title of the passage?
A. A Track of Hope B. Facing Empty Nest
C. An Amazing Woman D. Meeting Challenges
C.
As we all know, Los Angeles has many highways. It's also a city in the world where big cats wander wild inside the city boundaries. But big cats and highways do not mix. That is why Los Angeles will construct one of the world's wildlife passages to protect these cats.
The cats mentioned above are mountain lions. They live in the Santa Monica Mountains. Their numbers don't change much. Their habitat is mostly untouched wilderness, full of deer, the lions’. main food. The ecology of their mountains is healthy, thanks to their existence at the top of the food chain. Yet genetic(基因的) worsening can be just as deadly.
Route 101 cuts the Santa Monica Mountains off from a larger wilderness to the North. The result is a trapped population in the South and genetic worsening. A study in 2016 found that, considering their natural environment, the Santa Monica mountain lions' chances of extinction in 50years would be 15-22%, in contrast to 9.7%because of their genetic worsening.
Another study found that the big cats were suffering physical damage: a 90-degree kink(结)in the tail and problems in sexual organs(器官), In the early 190s biologists found that Florida puma, a closely related animal, had the same genetic weaknesses. The Florida puma escaped extinction only thanks to the introduction of females brought from Texas to refresh the gene pool.
California does not need to go that far like Florida. There are healthy mountain-lion populations north of the Santa Monica Mountains, separated by the road. But hidden cameras show the animals stood at the side of the highway, not daring to cross. And the construction of the passage will largely solve the problem.
The animals become adults at 2.5 to 3 years and have babies every two years. So within ten years of the passage's completion, the grandchildren of the first mating(交配) beyond the mountains could have babies. Genetically, even a few matings would make a difference "The passage will definitely save the mountain lion," thinks Paul Edelman of the Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority.
43. What is the major threat to these mountain lions?
A. Habitat loss. B. Lack of food sources.
C. Genetic worsening. D. Decreased female numbers.
44. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The emergency of the problem.
B. Comparison between the two animals.
C. The problems the mountain lions are facing.
D. Solution to mountain lions' potential extinction.
45. What is likely to happen after the passage's completion?
A. The mountain lions will be free from extinction.
B. The problem of genetic worsening can be largely solved.
C. Los Angeles will own the only wildlife passage in the world.
D. The grandchildren of the first mating will be born within 10 years.
46. What is Paul Edelman's attitude to the wildlife passage?
A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Doubtful. D. Uninterested.
D
In November, "NFT" was chosen as 2021's "Word of the Year" by Collins Dictionary. NFT is short for Non-Fungible Token. It is a "one-of-a-kind" property in the digital world that can be bought and sold like any other piece of property but has no tangible(可触摸的) form. Now, NFTs are becoming popular in the art world.
Unlike the traditional artworks that are made by hand and have their own special technique, digital arts can be copied and gained for free. But NFTs could provide a digital certificate(证明),showing the ownership of a unique virtual or physical artwork.
"In the digital world, you wouldn't know if something is a copy of something else because the copy is almost perfect. The NFT was the first to prove who owns this property," said Pindar Wong, chairman of Internet financial infrastructure consultancy VeriFi
Along with protecting ownership, NFTs allow the owner to get a payment each time his/her work is sold. The artwork itself still belongs to the owner, and the buyers can get limited rights to show the digital artwork. So whenever the NFTs are sold, each transaction(交易) can only be made with the owner.
"NFTs can ensure that owners, including artists or musicians, can have a part of the income from every transaction, which could encourage their creations," said Sylvia Wang, a consultant at business-to-business platform ArtBiz Asia.
That's why many experts believe that NFTs can greatly change the art industry. According to the latest report, in the first half of 2021, the sales of NFT digital artworks reached $2.5billion, an increase from just $13.7 million for the same period in 2020.
US artist Mike Winkelmann said that with the help of NFT technology, the art field has entered a new time. He created a digital work of art——Everydays: The First 5.000 Days. In March, it was
sold for $69 million.
47. What is NFT？
A. A piece of artwork. B. A kind of property.
C. A useful dictionary. D. A copy of something else.
48. What can we know about digital artworks?
A. They have tangible forms. B. They are very easy to copy.
C. They hardly have any value. D. It's easy to identify their owners..
49. What does Sylvia Wang agree with?
A. NFTs could largely benefit owners.
B. The creator can't get paid for digital works.
C. NFTs have the chance to replace real artworks.
D. Buyers have no right to use the digital artworks.
50. What could be a suitable title for the text?
A. The Charm of Digital Art B. Hot Words of the Year 2021
C. Digital Art Changing the Art Field D. NFT Creating Value in Digital Art

Dear friends，Nowadays，we spend much time on the Internet. As a consequence，our ability of handwriting is undoubtedly worsening. My suggestions on how to protect our Chinese characters are as follows.
We should devote more time to reading and taking notes. Besides，we'd better form the habit of practicing calligraphy and keeping diaries. Stick to it，and we can surely make great progress. As the saying goes，"The style is the man." Beautiful and neat handwriting is beneficial to us students.
Let's take action and pay more attention to our handwriting.
