British birdwatcher are used to bad news. House sparrow numbers have fallen from an estimated 30m to 10m since 1966. Curlews （杓鹬）have become a rare sight, their numbers sharply declining by 50% in 15 years. Cuckoos（布谷鸟）， once-frequent visitors from Africa, have decreased by 63% in the south-east in the past two decades. Earlier springs that confuse migrant birds, more efficient farming and the transformation of ruined buildings (good for nesting) into modern homes have all contributed to these woes.

But data released by the British Trust for Ornithology(BTO), a research charity, suggest some are rising. Tracking bird populations by means of regular surveys, the figures give the clearest picture of 49 species across Britain.

Blackcaps（黑顶林莺）, small woodland birds native to Germany and eastern Europe, are unwilling to return after their summer short visits: Since 1967 numbers have increased by 177%. The little egret（小白鹭）, a white heron-like bird, arrived from continental Europe in 1989 and now numbers over 5,000. Wood pigeons（斑尾林鸽）, once found shyly singing in forests, have bravely moved into cities and suburbs.

Environmental and agricultural changes have helped as well as confused birds. Modern farming techniques allow grain to be planted in the autumn rather than the spring; that helps wood pigeons feed in winter. Warmer winters mean rivers and ponds are less likely to freeze, providing the little egrets with food. James Pearce-Higgins of the BTO says that blackcaps benefit particularly from the increasing popularity of berry bushes in people’s gardens.

Birders complain nonetheless. Some of the species booming, such as carrion crows（食腐乌鸦）and buzzards（秃鹰）, are disliked. And migrant birds that extend their visits may provide competition for some bird natives. They are “muscling in and getting the first claim on breeding sites”, says Richard Cowser of the Sussex Ornithological Society.                        I like their human counterparts（同行）, residents of a small island stricken by global winds, British birds will have to learn to compete.

4. The underlined word “woes” in Paragraph 1 probably means____________.

A. Tragedy B. construction C. damage D. migration

5. What might not be the reason for the increase of birds?

A. The access to people’s gardens. B. Modern farming methods.

C. The different environmental patterns. D. Rebuilding of abandoned houses.

6. Which of the following statements is correct according to the passage?

A. All bird lovers are satisfied with the situation of birds increasing.

B. Migrant birds lengthening their stays cause threat to the local birds.

C. Black caps whose home is Germany and eastern Europe refuse to stay in Britain.

D. More than 5000 little egrets arrived in Britain from continental Europe in 1989.

7. Where might this article come from?

A. A travel brochure. B. An annual report.

C. A personal journal. D. A magazine article.

C

Eddie Browning and his wife Cindy were living in a run-down camper that had been ruined by a fire. Because of its poor state, the couple found themselves freezing during the cold weather. Sadly, they couldn’t afford to have it repaired.

They desperately needed a roof over their head and prayed every night that they would someday have a home. Eventually, their prayers were answered—and they have children to thank for it. Dozens of students from Elm Street Elementary in Rome, Georgia, and volunteers built a tiny house for Eddie and Cindy in 2017. The group presented it to the couple at the Georgia Tiny House Festival in Eatonton at the Lavender Farm.

The couple was overwhelmed with delight upon seeing their new home. And they were surprised to hear that this project was initiated by school children. The students had started constructing the tiny house a year before but could not present it to the Brownings because they didn’t have a place to legally put it. Thankfully, the Georgia Tiny House Festival and Lavender Farms organizers heard about their dilemma and allowed them to put it on the farm.

The groups’ act of kindness didn’t stop there. They also assisted the kids in adding electricity, plumbing, and a larger extension to the home. Eventually, what started out as a really tiny home with only sleeping bags, supplies, and a propane heater grew bigger than anyone had ever imagined.

The spirit of generosity further spread around. Soon, donors, corporate sponsors, and volunteers began pitching to fill the house with appliances and make it livable for the Brownings. The project was so successful that the Elm Street Elementary School pledged to build a new house each year for a family who needed it. They even have a motto for their mission: “tiny house, big dreams.”

8. What happened to the Brownings?

A. They escaped from a fire.

B. They were in poor physical state.

C. They were homeless and struggling.

D. They suffered from cold and hunger.

9. What was the new house like with the help of the groups?

A It was illegally built. B. It was poorly equipped.

C It was small beyond imagination. D. It was convenient to live in.

10. What does the underlined word “pledged” in the last paragraph probably mean?

A. Promised. B. Paused. C. Remembered. D. Hesitated.

11. What can we learn from the text?

A. Helping others is helping yourself.

B. The future lies in the hands of children.

C. One act of kindness can change the world.

D. Youths make a difference and kindness spreads.

D

The global population growing, the climate is warming, and, no surprise, the demand for energy is steadily increasing. We need to use less energy in any way that we can.

German design student Tobias Tribenbacher, from the University of the Arts Berlin, has created a street light called Papilio in response to global sustainability initiatives, saying that he initially chose to create a city-facing streetlight due to such lights’ role in light pollution.

Papilio can be mounted to walls or set up as a freestanding lantern. The lamp should ideally be placed between three to six metres above ground, where ground-level winds are the strongest. The lamp is shaped like a pinwheel that acts as a wind turbine (涡轮), catching the wind to produce its own energy. It also has a rechargeable battery that stores electricity, so the lamp can operate even on less windy days.

Another key component of the lamp is the light itself. The warm-colored light doesn’t draw the attention of insects, and it uses an infrared (红外线) sensor so that the light is only started by nearby motion, reducing its contribution to light pollution.

Aside from saving public space and beautifying streets, the streetlight’s design is also a visual signal of clean energy in action. “Design not only determines how street lights are working. It can also shape our attitude towards them and consequently affect how we use them,” Tobias Tribenbacher says. “Because energy creation is often an invisible process, projects such as these help the production of electricity become comprehensible.”

The lamp’s ability to change wind power into electricity can also be a huge benefit to naturally windy areas. And since it doesn’t require any electrical infrastructure (基础设施), there will be an opportunity to fix the street lights in remote settings or places where infrastructure innovations can be cost-prohibitive.

Just as lanterns create the character of streets and squares, Papilio is envisioned as a public sustainability statement that motivates residents to take part in transforming our cities into climate-friendly, future-proof environments.

12. Why did Tribenbacher choose to create the street light?

A. To tackle light pollution. B. To reduce biodiversity loss.

C. To beautify the city he lives in. D. To draw public attention to waste.

13. Which of the following is the feature of the street light?

A. It occupies a large space. B. It can be fixed anywhere.

C. It is switched off by hand. D. It is unattractive to insects.

14. What do Tribenbacher’s words in Paragraph 5 imply?

A. The climate crisis is tough to address.

B. Design can facilitate our comprehension of energy production.

C. We must take action to save clean energy.

D. We know little about electricity generation.

15. What is the purpose of the text?

A. To stress the importance of innovation. B. To introduce a wind-powered street light.

C. To advocate environmental sustainability. D. To analyze the sustainability of the street light.

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. ____16____.

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 “____17____,” or “I see where you’re coming from, but…” when you respond to someone’s judgment.

Ask for clarification. ____18____. Ask this person to explain what they said, and find out their motivation for saying it. You could ask then, “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.

____19____. 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, “____20____, and 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

Everyone needs help. Often there are some cases that we help ourselves indirect in helping others. Last month, Tom asked for me to help with his math. In order to help him, I go over the textbook again and again, and did lots of exercises. To his surprise, some difficult problems that I could not understand before worked out by myself. After a month, with my help, Tom made great progresses in math, too. Such a experience enabled me to realize that help others also does good to ourselves. So when others is in trouble, never hesitate to help them.

第二节 书面表达(共25分)

【52题答案】

【答案】    Since the outbreak of COVID-19, our daily life has changed greatly. Because of the necessity of keeping social distance, I no longer hang out with my friends as often as before. In fear of the spread of virus, I wear masks every day, which makes me feel distant from others. In spite of the inconvenience, there is something I hope I can keep after the pandemic. Washing hands often is the first thing I should stick to, because personal hygiene is essential to our health. Second, stay with families often. During the lockdown period, I had no choice but to stay home, which gave me the chance to enjoy quality time with my families. That’s really an unforgettable experience.

COVID-19 pandemic will be a history, but there is something that we can learn from it and pass them down.
