A

Everybody makes decisions in life. I made an important one when I was in Grade Nine.

Before I made that decision, I tried very hard to act as an adult. I didn’t listen to my parents and teachers, and my grades became poor. It was three months before the high school entrance exam (入学考试).

At the turning point of my life, my mom asked me what I wanted to do in the future. Without thinking too much, I just said I would like to study hard.

Mom smiled and asked again, “What do you WANT to do?”

I never thought about the question. So I kept quiet.

“Whatever you want,” she went on, “it’s your own decision. Your life should be decided by yourself, not by anyone else, including me.” I saw tears in her eyes.

It’s my first time to think about this. I wanted to be a man to make a difference in the world. The road to my future became clear to me. With passion (激情) in my heart, I studied hard.

Now, I’m 17 and I’m in one of the best high schools in my city and I am one of the best students in the class.

Thanks to that decision, I have become what I am today.

41. When did the writer make the important decision?

A. When he was 17 years old. B. After the high school entrance exam.

C. When he was in Grade Seven. D. When he was in middle school.

42. What was the writer like before he made the important decision?

A. His grades were poor.

B. He tried hard to act as a good student.

C. He was one of the top students in his class.

D. He always thought about the future.

B

Here is some advice on how to make a decision without regret (后悔).

1. Think in a quiet place

Go to a quiet place. Close your eyes. Go through all the possibilities (可能性) and keep a pen and paper to make notes about your feelings after thinking. Give it a few days. You may be surprised that the answer shows itself a few days later.

2. Do research (调查)

Do research to get as much information as possible about the thing. Do research, ask questions and talk with people who have similar experiences. If you want to move to a new city, you should do some research about the city. If you think of finding a new job, you should look for more information about the job before you make a decision.

3. Don’t look back

If you think carefully and make a decision, then don’t look back. There are a lot of paths (道路) we can take in our life. Uncertainty is part of the adventure (冒险活动) of life. Once you are on this new adventure, you must trust yourself that you have made the best decision, and then you should move forward bravely. We can always learn something good on every path we follow.

43. Which of the following advice is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A. Think in a quiet place  B. Do some research

C. Call a good friend  D. Don’t look back

44. The underlined word “Uncertainty” in the last paragraph means “______.”

A. Not being sure  B. Not being successful

C. Trying  D. Choosing

45. What is the main idea of the passage?

A. It’s hard to make a right decision.

B. Advice on how to make decisions without regret.

C. Reasons why people should make decisions by themselves.

D. You shouldn’t look back once you’ve made a decision.

C

After a full lunch, Qian Bingkun and his friend watched a waiter pack their leftover (打包吃剩的) mapo tofu into boxes.

“You’ve changed your take-out boxes and they are more beautiful now, right?” Qian, 80, asked. “Yes, it’s a special way to encourage customers (鼓励顾客) to pack food,” the waiter answered.

Dong Xiujie, the manager of the restaurant, told people not to order too much food. The slogan “Food is a gift from nature. Let’s not waste (浪费) it!” can be seen everywhere in his restaurant.

This year wasting food is serious in some places, while many people don’t have enough food because of the bad weather and COVID—19.

President Xi Jinping told us not to waste food. To respond to (响应) his call, many places take action. In Hubei Province, the Wuhan Catering Association (餐饮协会) asks people to use the “N-I mode” to order. It means that if five people eat together, ordering dishes for four people is enough. In Xian, they call for restaurants to serve fewer dishes or half-portions (半份) to stop wasting. In Hefei, Anhui Province, more than 500 volunteers gave out leaflets (发传单) about saving food and helping poor people who need food in China.

46. The restaurant changed the take-out boxes to ______.

A. let customers buy them B. encourage people to pack their leftover food

C. make the restaurant more beautiful D. give customers as gifts

47. What does the underlined word “slogan” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. 标语 B. 计划 C. 邀请 D. 节目

48. According to the passage, many people have no food because of ______.

A. the high price of the food B. more and more people

C. fewer restaurants  D. the bad weather

49. Match the place with the activities and choose the right answer.

①Wuhan ②Xian ③Hefei

a. Restaurants serve fewer dishes or half portions.

b. Encourage “N-I mode” and order less food.

c. Five hundred volunteers gave out leaflets about food and poor people.

A. ①-b②-a③-c B. ①-c②-b③-a C. ①-c②-a③-b D. ①-b②-c③-a

50. Which can be the best title for this passage?

A. People Had a Wonderful Lunch B. Different Activities in China

C. Help the Poor to Get Food D. Never Waste Any Food

Ⅸ. 任务型阅读（共5小题，每小题2分，计10分）

阅读短文，并按要求完成56-60题。

Wilderness survival skills (野外生存技能) were necessary in the past, but now, people hardly use them. Teachers at the Deep Green Bush School in New Zealand think this might not be right. What if one day people have to live a primitive (原始的) life? So the school doesn’t teach reading, writing or math classes anymore. Instead (反而), students go out to learn how to find food, cook and learn about plants and animals.

Teachers and students at the school believe that if you can survive in the wilderness, you can survive anywhere. But are these wilderness survival skills really important? After all, we now live in a modern (现代的) world.

In today’s world, people need to learn many other skills to be successful, such as how to find a job, drive a car or speak a foreign language. It seems that most of us don’t learn survival skills because we don’t need them anymore.

In fact, survival skills change along with time and the development of society (社会发展). And it’s useful for people to have many skills. So why not learn some wilderness survival skills? At least, you will learn more about nature and yourself.

56题判断正（T）误（F）；57题题根据短文内容补全句子；58、59题回答问题；60题把文中画线句子译成汉语。

56. Without wilderness survival skills, people cannot survive in the past. 【    】
