阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项。
A
There are around 400,000 students in London. As university can be a costly time, many of these students will want to look for part-time work. Here are 4 relatively easy jobs to bag yourself in London and ensure a bit of pocket money through your university experience.
Waitressing
It is not hard to find waitressing jobs since London has an abundance of pubs and eateries. Gumtree and Indeed are good places for such opportunities. Hospitality UK and Next door are other great websites. However, as many of these positions are advertised on the windows of restaurants and pubs, going inside and asking the staff there about the positions is a much better idea. This will also demonstrate you as active and confident. Rates are around £12--15 an hour.
Mystery (神秘)shopping
It may not have you laughing to the bank but it's extra pocket money. You go at any time as a regular customer and check out the services that the business provides. You report back to the client and they will pay for your purchases alongside £5 —10.
Care Assistant
For those who have a heart of gold and want to help, caring is the way. There's a huge demand for people to spend your free time with elderly people or help people with disabilities. It can be cooking meals or making sure they're taking their medicine on time.
Receptionist
If you're a good communicator and can act professionally, a receptionist might be a great opportunity for you, which will help you build administrative skills and experience. Receptionist jobs are available at doctors surgeries, dentists, gyms, large offices and more.
1. Which is the preferable way to land a waitressing job?
A. Referring to Gumtree. B. Surfing Next door.
C. Inquiring about positions in person, D. Contacting advertisement company.
2. What does a mystery shopper need to do?
A. Amusing bank staff. B. Working at fixed times.
C. Making purchases for clients, D. Feeding back service quality.
3. Which job helps develop your administrative skills?
A. Waitressing. B. Mystery shopping.
C. Care Assistant. D. Receptionist.

Collette Divitto, 31, was born with Down's Syndrome (唐氏综合征) but she is far from disabled. This woman channeled her passion for baking into a cookie business with a global mission to change the world, one, cookie at a time.
Based in Boston, Massachusetts, her company was founded in 2016. Although she didn’t plan on being a business owner, she really created jobs for disabled people with all types of abilities. She said that she opened the bakery after receiving numerous job interview rejections, often being told she was not “a good fit” for the company. “It was sad and it was hard,” she said. “To me, it felt like they didn’t like me at all because of who I am. No one would hire me, so I decided to open my own business.”
The path to success wasn’t easy. Divitto’s mother Rosemary Alfredo didn’t raise her daughter to think of herself as different from her classmates. But this changed when Divitto was in the fourth grade and she was bullied by a boy in her class who started calling her “Down Syndrome”. Her mother had to have a conversation with her about what it meant and from then on, Divitto worked hard to be fully accepted at school.
Divitto is not resting on her laurels (荣誉). A big part of her company’s mission is to help people with disabilities find jobs. She is also the author of two children’s books and she was featured on the documentary Born for Business, about pioneers with disabilities. Divitto also runs a nonprofit organization, Collettey’s Leadership Org.
Her first priority is to let people start seeing abilities in the physically disadvantaged and to employ the 82 percent of the people with disabilities who are capable of working but cannot find jobs. With her drive and vision, Divitto is sure to be a success.
4. What drove Divitto to Start her own business?
A. The desire to help others.
B. The failure to find a job.
C. The prospect of bakery.
D. The passion for baking.
5. What can we learn about Divitto from Paragraph 4?
A. She attempts to be a pioneer.
B. She aims to assist the disabled.
C. She wants to enlarge her business.
D. She plans to direct a documentary.
6. What concerns Divitto most about the disabled?

B. Their working conditions.
C. Chances of self-development.
D. Recognition of their abilities.
7. Which of the following can best describe Divitto?

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了患有唐氏综合征的Collette Divitto不屈服于天生的疾病，勇敢地开创公司，立志改变世界、让更多的人认可残疾人能力的故事。
【详解】1. 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“She said that she opened the bakery after receiving numerous job interview rejections, often being told she was not “a good fit” for the company. “It was sad and it was hard,” she said. “To me, it felt like they didn’t like me at all because of who I am. No one would hire me, so I decided to open my own business.”(她说，她在接到无数次面试拒绝后开了这家面包店，经常有人告诉她，她不适合这家公司。“这很悲伤，也很艰难,”她说。”对我来说，感觉他们根本不喜欢我，因为我是的样子。没人愿意雇我，所以我决定自己开公司)”可知，她面试时屡屡被面试官用“不适合”这样的理由拒绝，导致她找不到工作，所以她自己开了这家面包店。故选B。
2.细节理解题。根据第四段“A big part of her company’s mission is to help people with disabilities find jobs.(她公司的主要使命是帮助残疾人找工作。)”可知，她的公司的主要目的是帮助残疾人找到工作。由此可知，Collette Divitto的目的是帮助残疾人，故选B。
3. 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Her first priority is to let people start seeing abilities in the physically disadvantaged and to employ the 82 percent of the people with disabilities who are capable of working but cannot find jobs.(她的首要任务是让人们开始看到身体弱势群体的能力，并雇用82%有工作能力但找不到工作的残疾人。)”可知，她想要让人们看到身体状况不良但是有工作能力的残疾人，让人们看到他们的能力并对他们加以认可，因此她最关心的是对残疾人的认可。故选D。
4. 推理判断题。本文主要讲述了Collette Divitto不屈服于天生的疾病，勇敢地开创公司，立志改变世界，让更多的残疾人被认可的故事。尤其根据第二段中的“No one would hire me, so I decided to open my own business.(没人愿意雇我，所以我决定自己开公司。)”可知，她虽然面试屡遭失败，但是她没有放弃，而是勇敢地面对困难，下定决心自己开公司，由此可知，她是一个坚定的人，根据倒数第二段中“A big part of her company’s mission is to help people with disabilities find jobs.(她公司的主要使命是帮助残疾人找工作。)”可知，她热衷于帮助残疾人，由此可见她很有责任心，所以她是一个坚定的、有强烈责任心的人。故选C。
C
As the effects of climate change become more disastrous, well-known research institutions and government agencies are focusing new money and attention on an idea: artificially cooling the planet, in the hopes of buying humanity more time to cut greenhouse gas emissions.
That strategy, called solar climate intervention (干预) or solar geoengineering, involves reflecting more of the sun’s energy back into space — abruptly reducing global temperatures in a way that imitates the effects of ash clouds flowing out from the volcanic eruptions. The idea has been considered as a dangerous and fancied solution, one that would encourage people to keep burning fossil fuels while exposing the planet to unexpected and potentially threatening side effects, producing more destructive hurricanes, wildfires floods and other disasters.
But. as global warming continues, producing more destructive hurricanes, wildfires floods and other disasters, some researchers and policy experts say that concerns about geoengineering should be outweighed by the imperative to better understand it, in case the consequence of climate change become so terrible that the world can’t wait for better solutions.
One way to cool the earth is by injecting aerosols (气溶胶) into the upper layer of the atmosphere. where those particles reflect sunlight away from the earth. That process works, according to Douglas MacMartin, a researcher at Cornell University.
“We know with 100% certainty that we can cool the planet,” he said in an interview. What’s still unclear, he added, is what happens next. Temperature, MacMartin said, is an indicator for a lot of climate effects. “What does it do to the strength of hurricanes?” he asked, “What does it do to agriculture production? What does it do to the risk of forest fires?”
Another institution funded by the National Science Foundation will analyze hundreds of simulations of aerosol injection, testing the effects on weather extremes around the world. One goal of the research is to look for a sweet spot: the amount of artificial cooling that can reduce extreme weather events without causing broader changes in regional rainfall patterns or similar impacts.
8. Why do researchers and government agencies work on cooling the earth?
A. To prevent natural disasters. B. To win more time to reduce gas emissions.
C. To imitate volcanic eruptions. D. To encourage more people to bur fossil fuels.
9. What are researchers worried about in terms of global warming?
A. More volcanoes will throw out.
B. More solar energy will go into space.
C. More disasters will endanger the future of the world.
D. People will keep burning fossil fuels to keep warm.
10. What can be inferred from Douglas’ words in an interview?
A. He thinks more research remains to be done.
B. He is optimistic about the effect of cooling the earth.
C. He is concerned about the reduction in agriculture production.
D. He disapproves of the practice of solar climate intervention.
11. What does the underlined words “sweet spot” in the last paragraph mean?
A. The rainfall pattern of a region.
B. The modest drop in temperature.
C. The number of extreme weather events.
D. The injection amount of aerosol.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述全球气候变化带来各种灾难性的天气，政府和相关研究机构提出的各种可能的应对办法。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“As the effects of climate change become more disastrous, well-known research institutions and government agencies are focusing new money and attention on an idea: artificially cooling the planet, in the hopes of buying humanity more time to cut greenhouse gas emissions.(随着气候变化的影响变得更加严重，知名研究机构和政府机构正把新的资金和注意力集中在一个想法上：人为地让地球降温，希望为人类赢得更多时间来减少温室气体排放)”可知，研究者和政府机构给地球降温是为了赢得更多的时间来减少温室气体的排放。故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“some researchers and policy experts say that concerns about geoengineering should be outweighed by the imperative to better understand it, in case the consequence of climate change become so terrible that the world can’t wait for better solutions.(一些研究人员和政策专家表示，当务之急是更好地了解地球工程，这比对地球工程的担忧更重要，以防气候变化的后果变得如此可怕，以至于世界不能等待更好的解决方案)”可知，研究者担心全球变暖造成的各种灾难可能会让未来的世界处于危险中。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段““What does it do to the strength of hurricanes?” he asked, “What does it do to agriculture production? What does it do to the risk of forest fires?”(他问：“它对飓风的强度有什么影响？这对农业生产有什么影响？它对森林火灾的风险有什么影响？”)”可知，Douglas认为还有很多疑问没有解开，所以还有很多研究有待去做。故选A项。
【11题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“One goal of the research is to look for a sweet spot: the amount of artificial cooling that can reduce extreme weather events without causing broader changes in regional rainfall patterns or similar impacts.(这项研究的目标之一是寻找一个“最佳点”：人工降温的数量，既可以减少极端天气事件，又不会造成区域降雨模式的广泛变化或类似影响)”可知，这里的“最佳点”指的是，人工降温要适度，既可以解决气候变暖带来的极端天气，又不会给气候造成太大的影响，因此“a sweet spot”指的是适度的降温。故选B项。
D
When romantic partners argue over things like finances, jealousy, or other interpersonal issues, they tend to employ their current feelings as fuel for a heated argument. But thinking about the future helps overcome relationship conflicts, according to a University of Waterloo study just published online in Social Psychological and Personality Science. Alex Huynh, a doctoral candidate in psychology is the lead author of the study, which he published with Igor Grossmann from the University of Waterloo, and Daniel Yang from Yale University.
Previous research has shown that third-perspective reasoning can be a positive strategy for reconciliation(调解) of interpersonal struggles. Huynh and his collaborators investigated whether similar benefit can be induced by simply thinking about the future. Study participants were instructed to reflect on a recent conflict with a romantic partner or a close friend. One group of participants were then asked to describe how they would feel about the conflict one year in the future, while another group was asked to describe how they feel in the present.
The team examined participants’ written responses through a text-analysis program for their use of pronouns — such as I, me, she, he. These choices of pronouns were used to capture participants’ focus on the feelings and behaviour of those involved in the conflict. Written responses were also examined for forgiveness and reinterpreting the conflict more positively, both of which implied the participants’ use of reasoning strategies.
The researchers found that envisioning future relationship affected both participants’ focus on their feelings, and their reasoning strategies. As a result, participants reported more positivity about their relationship altogether, especially when study participants extended their thinking about the relationship a year into the future.
“Our study demonstrates that adopting a future-oriented perspective in the context of a relationship conflict — reflecting on how one might feel a year from now — may be a valuable coping tool for one’s psychological happiness and relationship well-being,” said Huynh.
12. What do romantic partners do in face of most disagreements?
A. They lose faith in their future. B. They focus on their present feelings.
C. They look forward to a fierce conflict. D. They care more about financial problems.
13. What does the underlined word “induced” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean？
A. Caused. B. Explained.
C. Reduced. D. Improved.
14. What do we know about the study?
A. All the study participants described how they felt both in the present and in the future.
B. Study participants described their recent relationship with their romance partners or friends.
C. A text-analysis program was employed to examine participants’ use of negative words.
D. The reasoning strategies in participants’ written responses were well worthy of note.
15. What can be the best title of the text?
A. You have a year to solve your interpersonal problems!
B. Thinking about future is essential for relationship maintenance!
C. Your current feelings are the real cause of your heated arguments!
D. Beneficial reasoning is a positive strategy for reconciliation!
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍一项研究结果，思考未来关系有助于克服人际关系冲突，目光长远才是维持人际关系的好方法。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“When romantic partners argue over things like finances, jealousy, or other interpersonal issues, they tend to employ their current feelings as fuel for a heated argument.(当恋人们就关于诸如财政、嫉妒、或其他人际问题进行争论时,他们倾向于以他们当前的情绪为基础从而加剧争论)”可知，在面对分歧时，大部分恋人注重当时的感受。故选B项。
【13题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词上文“Previous research has shown that third-perspective reasoning can be a positive strategy for reconciliation(调解) of interpersonal struggles.(先前的研究已经表明，从第三视角的推理是积极的人际斗争战略调节解方法)”可知，先前的研究已经表明理性思维是积极的人际斗争战略调解方法，结合倒数第二段描述的研究结果“As a result, participants reported more positivity about their relationship altogether(结果，参与者对他们的关系表现出了更积极的态度)”可推知，划线词所在句意为：黄齐和他的合作者研究类似益处是否仅仅能够依靠简单地思考未来去达成。induced意为“导致，引起”。故选A项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Written responses were also examined for forgiveness and reinterpreting the conflict more positively, both of which implied the participants’ use of reasoning strategies.(通过书面回答，也检查了有益的推理策略——例如，宽恕和更积极地阐释冲突)”可知，参与者书面回答中的推理策略很值得注意。故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段中的“But thinking about the future helps overcome relationship conflicts, according to a University of Waterloo study just published online in Social Psychological and Personality Science.(但是根据滑铁卢大学的一项刚刚发表在《社会心理和人格科学》上的研究，思考未来关系有助于克服人际关系冲突)”和最后一段中的“Our study demonstrates that adopting a future-oriented perspective in the context of a relationship conflict — reflecting on how one might feel a year from now — may be a valuable coping tool for one’s psychological happiness and relationship well-being(我们的研究表明，在关系冲突的背景下采用一种面向未来的视角——反思一年后感受会如何——对于一个人心理幸福感和良好的人际关系来说可能是一个有价值的处理方法)”可知，文章主要介绍一项研究结果，思考未来关系有助于克服人际关系冲突。B项“考虑未来对维持关系至关重要”适合作为文章标题。故选B项。

The Principal and the Popcorn Popper
Spring was approaching. Principal （校长）Peters was wandering in the empty part of the huge school yard when the students' request flashed through his mind again. It couldn't be better to eat the cabbages, carrots, or eggplants planted by themselves. But how to raise money for seeds and tools?
The topic came up at the teachers' meeting. Teachers suggested various means of collecting money with enthusiasm； one teacher suggested, “We have a popcorn popper （爆米 花机）in the teachers' lounge （休息室）.How about kids making popcorn to sell?”
When the popcorn proposal reached the students, they jumped with joy. Agreement was reached -every Thursday, in their labor course, by selling popcorn for 25 cents a bag, they could enjoy a snack while raising money to buy seeds and tools for their garden.
Soon the first Thursday came. Principal Peters got to his office as usual just right next to the teachers' lounge. Hearing popping sound, he smiled, for it meant the promise of the potential garden. But it was REALLY loud. He wrapped a scarf around his head to block his ears. When the first Thursday was over, he breathed a sigh of relief. But the next Thursday, popping sound happened again. This time, he had brought earplugs. The day, it seemed, would last forever. But for the kids' garden dream, he put up with it willingly.
The following Thursdays witnessed Principal Peters attempting to pile gym mats against his office walls and asking the fifth grade to practice for their concert in the hallway outside his office. The "unbearable" popping sound seemed to have taken root in his head! But for the kids' vegetable garden dream, he put up with it willingly.
On the 11th Thursday, he went to the teachers' lounge again to see how much money was still needed. Seeing the Principal coming with a hard-hidden painful expression, the students responded cheerfully, “Only with 41 dollars our garden dream will come true.” Hearing this, Principal Peters left without saying anything.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Shortly afterward, Principal Peters came back with 41 dollars.

【答案】Shorly afterward, Principal Peters came back with 41 dollars. He announced firmly and proudly, “Guys! You’ ve reached your garden goal!” Seeing the exact amount of money to realize the garden dream, all the students present burst into cheers.“For $41, you have just bought 164 bags of popcorn, we’ll pop it for you right now,” said one of the kids, eyes dancing with joy. However, Principal Peters shook his head, saying, “Thanks, but no need, I’ m proud of you for your persistence! But may I ask what you will plant? Cabbages? Carrots or eggplants?”
“POPCORN”, the cute students answered the Principal’ s question jokingly. Following the students’ unexpected response, a stunned look froze on the principal’ s face. After all, how could popcorn be planted? Immediately, he got the point of students’joke. Forehead knotting in a frown, he pretended to be angry but joy sparkled inside him. He grinned at the cute studcnts childishly, saying proudly and encouragingly,“You guys have done an amazing job! As long as you try enough, everything you want will come its way.” Together, they pictured a promising plant garden of their own.
