After college I wanted to make a difference in the world,so I joined the Peace Corps and became a volunteer teacher in Namibia,my country of assignment(任务).Honestly,my first choice wasn't Africa,but I am extremely grateful that I was sent there.
Various tribes and racial groups live in Namibia and a number of languages are spoken.When Namibia gained independence in 1990,English became the official language.Teachers were supposed to teach in English,but many lacked the language skills to do so.My job was to train the teachers.
Schools were quite bare.Some classrooms consisted merely of sticks stuck in the sand and a metal roof.Each student had only one uniform.The students had exhausting days.They walked miles to get to school,often barefoot.They also did many daily chores.Even with their mountains of work,few possessions and little opportunity,these children were joyful.I admired that.
This was my first time living abroad in a different culture.Simply adapting to the living conditions was a big adjustment.I had no electricity,running water,phone or Internet.Imagine no air conditioning where the temperature was often above 38 degrees Celsius!However,I could end each day with a splendid African sunset.And at night,I could have an incredible pollution-free view of the entire Milky Way(银河).
Before Namibia,I never thought a girl like me would adapt to such an environment.My experience awakened me to not only the limitations we place on ourselves,but also our amazing ability to adapt.
Step outside of your comfort zone and throw yourself in another culture.You won't regret it.
4. What do we know about Namibia before 1990? ______
A. Everyone could speak many languages.
B. Teachers taught English as an official language.
C. It was ruled by other countries.
D. Teachers had a good command of English.

C. She succeeded in challenging her limits.
D. Africans' hard life touched her deeply.

During a decline in tourism,one national park in Thailand has seen a dramatic rise in "visitors" recently.So many are the hermit crabs(寄居蟹)flooding into the otherwise empty beaches of Koh Lanta that shells (贝壳)for them to live in have become in short supply.
The Thai government moved quickly to ease the housing shortage,launching a public appeal for empty shells that netted over 200 kg.On December 5 these were distributed around the park in a ceremony.
Hermit crabs rely on shells to protect their soft bodies,moving to larger shells as they grow.On Koh Lanta and the surrounding smaller islands,their rapid increase seems to be a natural phenomenon,rather than directly related to the absence of tourists.But the shortage of shells may be man-made:pretty ones have long been gathered to be sold as goods.Crabs had begun to make do with potential death-traps such as plastic caps and bottles.
The shell drive was part of a government initiative to "regain the balance of nature". "I have instructed all national parks to do whatever it takes," says Varawut Silpa-archa,the minister for natural resources.His inspiration comes from the pause in tourism brought on by COVID-19.A ban on international visitors and the closure of national parks have helped nature recover,bringing endangered leatherback turtles back onto Thai beaches.In the coastal provinces of Phang Nga and Phuket,turtles have laid the largest number of eggs for 20 years.
The government has decided to try to copy the short break forced on it by COVID-19 in future.From now on,all national parks will be required to close for a short period during the off-season and to limit the number of tourists through a reservation system when they are open.Although such restrictions mean reduced earnings from tourism in the short term,in the longer run more parks may help to keep the tourists coming.
8. What happened to the beaches of Koh Lanta recently? ______
A. They got flooded by seawater.
B. They became completely empty.
C. They were packed with hermit crabs.
D. They saw a constant stream of tourists.
9. What contributed to the housing shortage for hermit crabs? ______
A. Natural disasters. B. Human activities.
C. Their preference for bottles. D. The government's involvement.
10. Why are turtles mentioned in paragraph 4? ______
A. To warn turtles are dying out.
B. To prove beaches are their ideal habitats.
C. To stress ecological diversity of Thailand.
D. To illustrate the birth of Varawut's inspiration.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? ______
A. Developing Economy or Protecting Animals?
B. Closing National Parks or Drawing More Visitors?
C. Governments are Responsible for the Balance of Nature
D. Authorities Help to Find Shelters for Homeless Hermit Crabs

The decision to go to college still makes sense for most,but a recent survey showed that only 16% Americans think a four-year college degree course prepares students well for a high-paying job in the modern economy.To some extent,technology seems to be complicating the picture.
A paper published by several Canadian economists questions optimistic assumptions about demand for non-routine work and shows that since 2000 the share of employment accounted for by high-skilled jobs in America has been falling.This analysis supports the view that technology has come as a blow to employment.Skilled and unskilled workers alike are in trouble.Those with a better education are still more likely to find work,but there is now a fair chance that it will be unenjoyable.Those who never made it to college face being squeezed out of the workforce altogether.This is the argument of the techno-pessimists(科技悲观者),who calculated that 47% of existing jobs in America are very likely to be influenced by automation.
There is another,less pessimistic possibility.James Bessen,an economist at Boston University,has worked out the effects of automation on specific professions and finds that since 1980 employment has been growing faster in occupations that use computers than in those that do not.Progressive automation can actually increase demand by reducing costs.But even though technology may not destroy jobs on the whole,it does force change upon many people.
In many occupations it has become essential to acquire new skills as established ones become out-of-date.Burning Glass Technologies,a Boston-based startup that analyses labor markets by obtaining data from online job advertisements,finds that the biggest demand is for new combinations of skills-what its boss,Matt Sigelman,calls "hybrid jobs".The composition of new jobs is also changing rapidly.
A college degree at the start of a working career does not answer the need for the continuous acquisition of new skills,especially as career spans(持续时间)are lengthening.Vocational training(职业培训)is good at giving people job-specific skills,but those,too,will need to be updated over and over again during a career lasting decades.Vocational training has a role,but training someone early to do one thing all their lives is not the answer to lifelong learning.
Add all of this up,and it becomes clear that times have got tougher for workers of all kinds.A college degree is still a necessity for many jobs,but employers often do not trust it enough to hire workers just on the strength of that.In many occupations workers on company payrolls face the prospect that their existing skills will become outdated.
12. What can we learn from the paper conducted by the Canadian economists? ______
A. Employment has been shaken by technology.
B. College degree is a necessity in career success.
C. Skilled workers are no longer required in most American industries.
D. Techno-pessimism paves the way for future technology development.
13. What does James Bessen believe according to the text? ______
A. Increased demand can bring about cost reduction.
B. Progressive automation is beneficial to companies.
C. Computer has always been an essential factor in employment.
D. Technology advancement has a positive impact on most people.
14. Which of the following may Burning Glass Technologies agree with? ______
A. The job market will have a bright future.
B. The composition of new jobs is shaped by technology.
C. Online job advertisements require a precise data analysis.
D. Acquisition of new skills is essential in current job market.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? ______
A. Lifelong Learning:an Economic Priority
B. Technology Revolution:the Way to Success
C. College Degree:a Guarantee for Career Change
D. Vocational Training:a Blessing for Job Seekers
How to Respond when Someone Judges You Dealing with judgment from other people can be tough,especially when it's coming from a friend,family member,or colleague.Judgmental people are unavoidable,but you can easily deal with their criticism using positivity and compassion.
Rid yourself of the judgment.Remember that a judgmental person's words are a reflection of their own beliefs - and not yours.Critical people criticize themselves more than anyone else. (1)
Be sympathetic.Practice sympathy to understand the source of this person's judgment.It could be that they were judged by parents,family,or friends,in which case this person's critical attitude would be something they learned(and not necessarily intentional).While that doesn't excuse their behavior,having sympathy can inform your response.Say things like " (2) " or "I see where you're coming from,but…" when you respond to someone's judgment.
Ask for clarification. (3) Ask this person to explain what they said,and find out their motivation for saying it.You could ask them,"What are you trying to say?If you have constructive criticism,I'm open to hearing it." That way,you're giving the other person a gentle reminder to phrase their words constructively.
(4) Be polite but firm when you call out judgmental people.If somebody crosses a line and makes you feel criticized,tell them how you feel.If someone is giving you criticism you didn't ask for,you could say," (5) I have a plan that works for me."
A.Stop talking like this.
B.Set boundaries in the conversation.
C.I understand why you feel that way.
D.I feel like I need to deal with this in my way.
E.I know you want to talk but this is a sensitive subject for me.
F.Judgmental people may not know they're being rude or unreasonable.
G.So the judgment they pass isn't actually about you,though it can feel personal.

A Sports Festival You Won't Want to Miss____________
We three were running down the path,shouting and laughing when our dog Rubby suddenly stopped in the distance.He turned around,eyeing us,with his tail swinging up and down.
My little brother Toby immediately sped up and rushed to where Rubby was.He bent down,picked up something and ran back to us.
It was a bunch of keys.We gathered in a circle,examining the keys one by one,hoping to find some useful information about its owner.There were 3 keys,a house key,a mail key and a car key and a unique key fob(吊坠),very likely designed specially.
"Gosh,the owner might be in great trouble," my sister sighed.She was right.We once lost our keys.Although we had an extra house key,it took our parents quite a long time to get a new mail key,let alone there was a car key.
Who might have lost them?
After many wild guesses,we finally drew a conclusion:It might belong to someone in our neighborhood as only our neighbors wandered into the woods for a walk.But it was still impossible to figure out who it was.We had a very big neighborhood.
"The owner might come back to look for them," Toby reminded.So we decided to stay where we were,keeping a watchful eye on all passers-by.Our little dog ran in circles of excitement that we stayed so long in the wild.We remained in the woods for two hours,asking everyone we came across whether they lost their keys,but in vain.
It seemed we had to give up.But my sister wouldn't,saying that she just couldn't stop picturing the owner brushing aside tall grasses hoping to find the lost keys. " How anxious and upset the owner would be!"
I took a look at the bunch of keys again and quite by accident,found the key fob had the alarm button, "Look!If we press the alarm button,close enough of course,we can set off the owner's car alarm..."
"That's brilliant."
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;

(请这个人解释他们说了什么,并找出他们这么说的动机。你可以问:"你想说什么?如果你有建设性的批评意见,我愿意听取。"这样,你就给了对方一个温和的提醒,让他们用建设性的方式来表达。)可知,后文主要说明了通过建设性的方式来表达给对方的提醒,说明爱评头论足的人要靠他人来提醒自己的无礼。因此选项F.Judgmental people may not know they're being rude or unreasonable. (有偏见的人可能不知道自己很无礼或不讲道理。)符合语境,故选F。
(4)B.标题归纳题。根据后文Be polite but firm when you call out judgmental people.If somebody crosses a line and makes you feel criticized,tell them how you feel. (当你点名批评别人时,要礼貌但坚定。如果有人越界了,让你觉得受到了批评,告诉他们你的感受。)可知,列举的情景说明在对话中要设定一些界限,B选项中boundaries对应后文中line。因此选项B.Set boundaries in the conversation. (在对话中设定界限。)符合语境,故选B。
(5)D.推理判断题。根据上文If someone is giving you criticism you didn't ask for,you could say, (如果有人在你没有要求的情况下批评你,你可以说。)以及后文and I have a plan that works for me. (我有一个适合我的计划。)可知,本句是在列举对待别人批评的话语,结合后文可知与自我处理事情的方式有关,因此选项D.I feel like I need to deal with this in my way. (我觉得我需要用我自己的方式来处理这件事。)符合语境,故选D。
这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了一些应对他人批评的方法。处理来自他人的判断可能会很困难,尤其是来自朋友、家人或同事的判断。爱评头论足的人是不可避免的,但你可以用积极的态度和同情心轻松地应对他们的批评。
七选五阅读是完成性阅读,和完形填空很类似,不同的是一个选词,一个选句子。解题时,要注意上下文语境,充分考虑信息词(选项中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的词),选出最符合语境的句子。
