Spending up t five nights a week n the rad can be a lnely business, leaving him with plenty f time t ntice his surrundings. “I kept seeing mre rubbish everywhere and it was getting n my nerves.

Befre his time n the rad, Burrws spent ver tw decades in the military as a vehicle driver. His service saw him statined thrughut Eurpe and als n turs in Afghanistan. After returning t civilian life, he was diagnsed with PTSD (创伤后应激障碍) and had a mental health crisis in 2017. His invlvement in fundraising fr Help fr Heres led him t meet a man wh used mdel-building as a distractin frm PTSD.

By 2019, Burrws had begun using his free time n the rad t regularly clean up garbage.

The lcal cuncil stepped in and gave me litter-picking supplies and we’re up t almst 3,000 members nw.”
Since truckers are s ften n the mve, the Facebk page acts as a means f raising awareness rather than a platfrm fr rganizing cleanups. Burrws expressed his intentin t cntinue the cleanup effrts as lng as his physical cnditin allwed, as he still fund jy in the prcess.

A wild African bird that will lead peple t trees with hneycmb (蜂巢) seems t smehw learn the distinct whistles and calls f the human fragers (觅食者) wh live near them.
This bird species has far mre infrmatin abut what the bees are ding than humans ever culd. In Tanzania, Hadza fragers can use a special whistle t attract this bird, which will then fly dwn and start leading them t hney. With its nisy chattering sund, the bird is very cnspicuus. Once the bird arrives at a tree with hney inside, it will rest near the beehive silently, seemingly nt t disturb the bees. “That’s the signal t the Hadza t really start searching,” says Brian Wd, an anthrplgist at University f Califrnia, Ls Angeles. Pretty sn, the fragers will lcate the hive and cut pen the tree trunk.
It is fund that the birds are mre likely t shw up when the familiar signal used by the lcals is being bradcast. Accrding t the research, the birds appear 82% f the time when Hadza whistles are being played. But they appear nly 24% f the time when the researchers play the whistles traditinally used in a different cuntry.
This makes it clear that the birds have learned what their human neighbrs d when they want t partner up and g hney-hunting. “This is a very strng result which supprts the idea that there’s a learning prcess invlved,” says Wd.
But hw d the birds learn? It’s still unclear. What is clear is that this human-animal cmmunicatin seems t benefit bth parties, and it may g back many thusands f years. When the hneycmb is ut, the birds get sme f the beeswax, which they lve t eat. And the human fragers get the hney—which is an enrmusly imprtant fd fr the Hadza. Wd has calculated that the Hadza get abut 10% f the calries in their annual diet with the help f the birds.
28. What des the underlined wrd “cnspicuus” in Para.2 mean?
A. Eye-catching.B. Care-free.C. Naughty.D. Nisy.
29. What can we knw abut the birds?
A. They are raised by humans.
B. They help cut pen the tree trunk.
C. They feed n hney as their annual diet.
D. They can distinguish different whistles.
30. Which f the fllwing can best describe the hney gathering?
A. A cmplex dilemma.B. An unfair trade.
C. A duble-edged swrd.D. A win-win cperatin.
31. Which can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. The familiar signal in the frest.
B. A talented expert in hunting the bees.
C. A wnderful guide t cllecting hney.
D. The human-animal cmmunicatin in Tanzania.

As peple hld different views n almst anything, we live in a judgmental wrld where peple are quick t pint ut the faults and imperfectins f thers, yet seem unaware f their wn.

28. 词句猜测题。根据上文“With its nisy chattering sund (这只鸟叽叽喳喳叫得很响)”可知，响亮的叫声这只鸟引人注目，由此可知，cnspicuus意为“引人注目的”。故选A。
29. 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“It is fund that the birds are mre likely t shw up when the familiar signal used by the lcals is being bradcast. Accrding t the research, the birds appear 82% f the time when Hadza whistles are being played. But they appear nly 24% f the time when the researchers play the whistles traditinally used in a different cuntry. (研究发现，当播放当地人熟悉的信号时，这些鸟更有可能出现。根据这项研究，当哈扎哨声响起时，这些鸟出现的几率为82%。但当研究人员吹响另一个国家传统上使用的哨子时，它们出现的几率只有 24%。)”可知，这些鸟能够区分不同的哨声。故选D。
30. 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“What is clear is that this human-animal cmmunicatin seems t benefit bth parties, and it may g back many thusands f years. (可以肯定的是，这种人类与动物之间的交流似乎对双方都有好处，而且这种交流可能可以追溯到几千年前。)”可知，这个采蜜的过程是一个双赢的合作。故选D。

(一些被误导的灵魂认为他们有责任帮助你成为一个更好的人，首先告诉你你到底是一个多么失败的人，然后提供你如何改进的建议。)”可知，作者称这些人为“被误导的灵魂认为这是自己的责任”，即，自以为是。由此可推知，在作者看来，这样的人以自我为中心。故选B项。

34. 细节理解题。根据文章第四段内容“It is imprtant t remain emtinally cnnected with what the ther persn is saying, t listen withut feeling, t be an bjective bserver. (重要的是，要对对方所说的话有情感上的联系，不带感情地倾听，做一个客观的观察者。)”可知，重要的是要做一个客观的观察者，不带感情地倾听，即，保持理性和冷静。故选C项。
35. 推理判断题。通读文章内容可知，文章第二段内容“S what is the pssible slutin t criticism? (那么，应对批评的可能解决方案是什么呢?)”以及文章末尾段内容“In any case, ne can learn t be ‘OK’ with criticism and nt allw it t negatively impact yur life r relatinship with the ther party. (在任何情况下，一个人都可以学会接受批评，不要让它对你的生活或与对方的关系产生负面影响。)”提出了文章的核心主旨，即，文章主要讨论了应对批评的可能性解决方案：用“OK”来应对批评可以避免一些负面影响的产生。因此可推知，文章的目的是给出面对批评时的建议。故选D项。
七选五【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了应对生活和工作的一种方法——GTD方法的五个核心部分。
36. E 根据下文的“Hwever, it can indeed easily be brken dwn int five main cmpnents”可知，这一方法可以很容易地分解为五个主要部分。由此可推断出，人们认为这个方法的内容很繁杂，正好对应E项（GTD 这个方法涉及的东西可能足以写满一本书。），且与下文形成转折关系，符合语境。故选E。
37. A 设空处为本段的主旨句。根据下文可知，本段主要介绍了即便事情看起来无关紧要，也都要写在计划表上或者文档里，不要遗漏任何事情。你会发现将来这会在某种程度上有所帮助。由此可知，A项（抓住所有在你脑海中冒出的想法。）可概括本段的大意。故选A。
38. G 根据下文的“那么考虑是否要丢弃或者稍后再处理它”可知，G项（你可能发现某项任务没有可行的步骤。）可承接下文。故选G。
39. F 本段主要介绍“要经常反思和定期检查你所整理的材料”。由此可知，F项（这就意味着你要在每个周一检查、更新或修订一些东西。）对这一部分进一步解释说明。选项中的every Mnday呼应了上文的n a regular basis。故选F。
40. D 本段主要介绍“有意且积极地处理你的行动项目”。上文介绍了你已经有了任务和行动项目的列表，一个有日期和参考资料的组织系统以及一个可以自查的时间表，且根据语境可知，这是GTD方法的最后一个部分，由此可知，D 项（万事俱备，你可以逐步完成目标了。）可承接上文，且符合本段主旨。故选D。

Reading bks can expand ur knwledge f the wrld. UNESCO established April 23rd as Wrld Bk and Cpyright Day in 1995. D yu knw its histry? Setting aside a day t celebrate bks traces its beginnings t the Spanish writer Vicente Clavel Andrés. In 1922, he prpsed the idea as a way t hnr the authr, Miguel de Cervantes. Fur years later, the first celebratin tk place n Octber 7th, Miguel’s birthday, but the later celebratin was mved t April 23rd, the date f his death, in 1930. In 1995, the UNESCO General Cnference decided t shw respect fr authrs and bks wrldwide as a way f encuraging everyne t access bks. Chsing April 23rd seemed a lgical chice. Besides being the date f Miguel’s death, it als happens t be the date when William Shakespeare died, and sme ther imprtant authrs’ birthdays. Annually since 2001, ne city arund the wrld has been chsen t be the UNESCO Wrld Bk Capital fr a year. The selected city will carry ut activities t encurage “a culture f reading and sharing its values in all ages and ppulatin grups in and ut f the natinal brders”. The idea was put frward by Spain in 2001, and Madrid was designated the first capital, fllwed by Alexandria and then New Delhi.Develpment f Transprt in China
