三、阅读理解（共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分）

阅读理解

I'm running some 3,550 kilometers. To be more precise, this jog is mostly around my neighborhood in Ottawa. It is the distance by air to Vancouver that my friend Louise and I are doing. If we make it, Louise and I will get on a plane to Vancouver and compete in one of the BMO Vancouver Marathon weekend races. We may not win medals, but for sure we'll have cake for my seventy-fifth birthday at the finish line.

The workout for big birthdays represents a big change for me. I used to hate birthdays, especially those milestone ones. No longer feeling young is horrible. As I approached my sixtieth birthday, Louise suggested setting targets to mark milestone birthdays. "That way you are looking forward to something, not dreading it," she pointed out.

By doing those expanding my world or demanding new skills, I feel myself growing, not shrinking. For my sixtieth, I got it into my head that I should do an Olympic distance triathlon (铁人三项赛), which turned out to be a real milestone. After over four hours on the course, I was last among the 95 competitors. But I was the oldest woman competing, so that made me first in my age category. Since then, I've looked on the special days as a call for trying something different. For my sixty-fifth birthday, I went to run a half marathon. And I finished seven activities that took me out of my "comfort zone" at seventy.

I'm fortunate to have celebrated so many birthdays in good health and spirits, so whether I succeed in running to Vancouver or not, I'm grateful for the opportunity. One thing I've learned in taking up these challenges is that there are many possibilities for new adventures and achievements, even as we grow older. So do spend every day of every year with a definite end in view, which will release your energy and make you happy.

21．What does the underlined word "dreading" in paragraph 2 mean?

A．Demanding. B．Fearing. C．Changing. D．Accepting.

22．Why did the author think the triathlon a milestone?

A．It inspired her to accept challenges.

B．It changed her attitude to birthdays.

C．It proved she was in good condition.

D．It drove her to step outside her comfort zone.

23．What does the author suggest at last?

A．Living with a clear goal. B．Doing exercise to keep healthy.

C．Facing adventures bravely. D．Settling into old age positively.

Published in 1859, Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Speciesmade a number of brave claims about the nature of evolution — including the suggestion that an animal species with greater diversity in its line will produce more subspecies too. This assumption is not as obvious as you might think at first. And it was finally found to be true for birds only a couple of years ago. Now, researchers from the University of Cambridge in the UK have shown that Darwin was right on this point for mammals (哺乳动物), too.

Apart from being an important contribution to our understanding of evolution in general, the findings could also be useful in ongoing conservation efforts — helping experts to figure out which species need to be protected in order to ensure their survival.

"My research investigating the relationship between species and the variety of subspecies proves that subspecies play a vital role in long-term evolutionary dynamics and in future evolution of species," says biological anthropologist Laura van Holstein. There are three subspecies of northern giraffe, for example, and 45 subspecies of the red fox — the highest in the animal kingdom. 36 different species of wild cats have been found and most of these are further divided into subspecies. Human beings, on the other hand, don't have any subspecies.

To test Darwin's assumption, van Holstein looked at a huge database of animal classifications, analysing the collected knowledge we have about mammal species and subspecies to look for patterns. The data showed that habitat (land versus sea, for example) plays an important role in subspecies' form and increase. The findings show that those living in the sea, or spending a lot of time in the air are less affected by physical boundaries like mountains.

The discoveries on subspecies habitat are particularly significant when it comes to conservation, because the habitats of so many animals are under threat from climate change and human activity, and these findings indicate that our actions really are having an effect on the process of evolution.

24．What is the main idea of the first paragraph? 

A．Charles Darwin's claims have been proved recently.

B．Charles Darwin published On the Origin of Species.

C．Charles Darwin's assumption was right for any animal.

D．Charles Darwin set up the foundation of evolution theory.

25．What can we infer from Laura van Holstein's research? 

A．Humans will evolve faster.

B．Wild cats' subspecies are countless.

C．The red fox needs immediate protection.

D．Northern giraffe's evolution is less active.

26．Why are the discoveries on subspecies habitat important? 

A．Because they help solve the threat of climate change.

B．Because they show human activity is bad for evolution.

C．Because they tell the importance of conservation of habitats.

D．Because they prove evolution is damaged by human actions.

A Space Age "disaster of the commons" is unfolding right under our nose — or, really, right over our head. For more than half a century, humans have been casting objects into low-Earth orbit in ever growing numbers. And with few meaningful limitations on further launches, the general attitude has been permissive: in orbit, it seems, there is always room for one more.

After so many decades of the build-up of high-speed chaos in the form of spent rocket stages, low-Earth orbit is finally on the edge of becoming too crowded for comfort. And the problem tends to get much worse because of the rise of satellite "mega constellations (大星座)" requiring thousands of aircraft, such as SpaceX's Starlink. Starlink is but one of many similar projects. Another mega constellation from a company called OneWeb is already being stationed. And Amazon's Project Kuiper is seeking to create a mega constellation of up to 3,200 satellites in the near future.

The International Space Station regularly adjusts its orbit to avoid potentially risky debris (碎片). Worse yet, there has been an increase in the threat of full-on collisions. Consider the February 2009 run-in between a dead Russian satellite and a commercial aircraft, which produced a great amount of debris.

Finding ways to remove at least some of all that space rubbish should be a top global priority (优先), says Donald Kessler, a scientist for orbital debris research. In the late 1970s, he foretold the possibility of the Kessler conditions: as the mass of space trash increases, self-protecting runaway cycle of debris-generating collisions can arise, making low-Earth orbit too risky to support most space activities.

"There is now agreement within the community that the debris environment has reached a 'tipping point' where debris would continue to increase even if all launches were stopped," Kessler says. "There are collisions taking place all the time — less noticeable and not in large numbers," Kessler adds.

27．What can be concluded from paragraph 1? 

A．Humans are facing a space collision disaster.

B．General public are tolerant of the present situation in space.

C．Nothing has been done in space management.

D．Low-Earth orbit is in a high degree of order.

28．Why is mega constellation mentioned in paragraph 2? 

A．To explain the cause of the space jam.

B．To show the influence of the aircraft.

C．To stress the popularity of the space race.

D．To praise the efforts of famous companies.

29．What is Kessler's attitude towards the debris environment? 

A．Ambiguous. B．Worried. C．Doubtful. D．Tolerant.

30．Which of the following could be the best title for the text? 

A．Space Collisions Are Unavoidable

B．Space Development Needs to Stop

C．Space Activities Are Out of Control

D．Space Rubbish Arouses Concerns

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

It is very common nowadays for people to complain about anxiety. The novel coronavirus outbreak, as well as the pressure from day-to-day life, contributes to anxiety, which should not be underestimated as it could lead to depression or other mental disorders. 　31．     　

As a matter of fact, keeping several plants to add some green in your home is a good way to ease anxiety. 　32．     　 Researchers from the University of Essex in England investigated the reason, finding out that the secret to why nature could help people to calm down is because of one of its major colors: green.

　33．     　 To people, green usually represents calm, peace, freshness, and safety, because to the ancestors of human beings, green means food and water. This impression was rooted in human's minds during the evolution process, hence the feelings this color generates still have a great effect on people today.

　34．     　 The photosynthesis (光合作用) of plants can absorb the carbon dioxide in the air and release oxygen. However, do not grow too many plants in the bedroom since photosynthesis takes place during the day, so when nighttime comes, plants will do the opposite by absorbing oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide.

The best choice of plants to keep at home and in the office are pothos (石柑属), lucky bamboo, and cactus. That's because they are easy to keep. 　35．     　

A. Different people have different reactions to green.

B. Here are some practical ways to help you get relaxed.

C. Some of them even produce colorful flowers as an extra gift.

D. So, is there anything we can do to relieve some of that pressure?

E. Green is a special color, as it is not cold nor warm in the color spectrum (光谱).

F. Green plants can not only help people ease their anxiety, but also clean the air for them.

G. Studies show that people who like to exercise outdoors will have a mental health boost of 50 percent.

67．阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

I've been devoted to education for 20 years. For a long time, I'd thought my students' winning competitions and my receiving honors were treasured moments in my career. But for me now, the most valuable moment happened when I was teaching third grade.

That year, I decided to plan something special for the children: afternoon tea with Mother. After all the preparations were made, each child took home an invitation. I was surprised and relieved to see every mother plan to attend. I even invited my own mother. Surprisingly, she was very cooperative.

Finally, the day arrived. That afternoon, each child lined up at the classroom door expecting the arrival of his or her mom. As it got closer to the starting time, I looked around and quickly found Jimmy, a shy boy. His mother hadn't shown up and he was upset. After a consideration, I took my mother by the hand and walked to Jimmy. "Jimmy," I said. "Since I'm going to be really busy today, I am wondering if you could keep my mother company." He nodded, looking excited.

My momand Jimmy sat at a table with two other pairs. Jimmy served my mom treats, presented her with the gift I had made, and pulled out and pushed in her chair, just as he had practiced the day before. Whenever I looked, my mom and Jimmy were deep in conversation.

Now ten years later, I work with students of all ages, educating them about the environment. Last year, I took a senior class from another city on a field trip. We went to a mountain by bus, where we spent two busy and absorbing days. The class were very easy-going and there was even a boy vaguely familiar. But the trip was over so quickly that I was even unable to put all their names to faces. Before we got on the bus to return school, I had the students complete an evaluation form of their trip. I collected and checked the forms one by one.

注意：

1）所续写短文的词数应为150词左右；

2）应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语；

3）续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；

66．【答案】My Hero

Many heroes have an enormous impact on my growth, one of whom is Lin Qiaozhi.

It's universally acknowledged that Lin Qiaozhi is an expert in women's and children's disease. However, what's unknown is that she went through hardships one after another before she became a doctor. There was a time when girls had little access to schooling, but she made it. Later, she devoted all her life to the welfare project of women and children.

Lin Qiaozhi has set a good example for us and we should learn determination and dedication from her. This is the true reason why I celebrate her.

67．【答案】Paragraph 1:

Then a different evaluation page came into view. It read, "Remember the afternoon tea for third grade, Mrs. Marra? I do! Thanks for all you did, and thank your mother, too. Jimmy." The words and name refreshed my memory of the afternoon and the shy boy. And I finally recognized that boy I felt familiar with! I approached Jimmy, telling him I really enjoyed what he wrote. Looking embarrassed at first, he then smiled broadly and boarded the return bus. Soon we arrived. While students were getting off the bus, Jimmy made sure he was the last one to go.

Paragraph 2:

Jimmy came to me before getting off, saying "Thanks again, Mrs. Marra" and gave me a big hug. "No one even knew my mom didn't make it that day!" he added. I ended my workday with a hug from a teenager who probably stopped hugging teachers years ago. From that, I have a deeper understanding of the essence of my profession. Perhaps a small thing or even a word I don't care much about will take root in a child's young heart and influence his life. And it is all these that are highlights of a teacher's life.
