The curious and friendly joey named ‘Dusty’is now so comfortable living with the couple and their dogs Lilly and Rosie on their farm, having a beautiful 31 on a hill, that the Stewarts are 32 he is a dog too.
Dusty rides around the property in the back of Mr Stewart’s truck along with the dogs, sleeps with them on a dog bed, eats with them, and asks for 33 .
His unique 34 began when Mr Stewart 35 to drive down to a dam on the couple’s property in Wittenoom Hills, 60 kilometres from Esperance, and 36 two dogs named Lilly and Rosie.
“I took the dogs in and he was 37 around and looking up at the truck and so I just picked him up and put him in the back with them,” Mr Stewart told Daily Mail Australia. “I didn’t think too much of it. We 38 through the farm and came back together. He was 39
sitting on the back, and I didn’t drive too fast because I’d be 40 about him jumping off. He didn’t jump in, so I 41 him in and out.”
While the 42 down to the dam has only happened a few times, Dusty, whom the couple often call ‘Skip’, has also picked up some very canine-like 43 .
“He just likes to play with the dogs, probably because he thinks he’s a dog. He eats and sleeps with them, and will wander down to the shed with them and lie around if I’m working there,”Mr Stewart said.
Dusty also has a collar , like many dogs, as a protective 44 to ensure he can be found at nighttime. “When he was little we were 45 to let him out during the day and he went off grazing and wouldn’t come back at night, so we had to look for him. We just couldn’t find him as kangaroos didn’t make any noise and were very 46 . Once we found him he would always come back with us, so we decided to wrap some 47 tape around a collar so when we shone a torch at night we could see him,”Mr Stewart said.
As a poetry written by Walt Whitman 48 it, “I think I could turn and live with animals, they are so placid and self﹣contained”.When finished reading this essay, I got a 49 and comprehensive understanding of this description. Needless to say, the canine-like kangaroos brought happiness to the Stewarts and enriched their life.And that’s what make me 50 that we should treat animals well and live harmoniously .

Samir Lakhani’s enthusiasm for social work began when he studied environmental science at the University of Pittsburgh. Required to complete an internship,he traveled to Cambodia to study the effects of climate change on communities that had lived off the land for centuries.
While studying in Cambodia,he saw something he would never forget: a village woman bathing her newborn son with detergent.”It is a harsh and toxic alternative(有毒的替代物)to the piece of soap that should never be used on the skin,"Lakhani remembered. “The baby was crying.I didn't know what I could do, but as I returned to my hotel room and stepped into the bathroom,I realized that my housekeeper had thrown away the piece of soap I had hardly touched."
That brief experience was a turning point for him and then he founded the nonprofit Eco-Soap Bank. “We shouldn’t live in a world where more than 2 million children die per year because of diseases that could easily be stopped by washing hands,”Lakhani stated.
Since 2014,Eco-Soap Bank has employed more than 150 economically disadvantaged women in ten developing countries to recycle leftover hotel soap. These women sanitize(消毒)the soap and give the new product to people in need. “During the COVID-19 pandemic period, hotel occupancy has dropped and hotels are closing,so we need to change our recycling form,"he says. Lakhani is now reaching out to soap producers from all over the world,asking them if they would like to give scraps to Eco-Soap Bank,a natural byproduct from the production line.He said, “On average, 10% of all soap is wasted before it even hits stores’ shelves.We have recycled and reproduced 1.5 million pieces of soap in the last two months, and this is all female-powered, because that's our duty.”
However,during the pandemic, the way to transport the soap to where it is needed for people puzzles Lakhani. He is trying to solve this problem and needs more help.
56.What does Paragraph 2 talk about?
A. How Eco-Soap Bank works.
B. How Cambodian people usually bathe.
C. What made Lakhani establish Eco-Soap Bank.
D. Why Lakhani chose Cambodia as the internship place.
57.How does Lakhani change the recycling form during the COVID-19 pandemic period?
A. By asking for scraps from soap producers.
B. By paying out of his own pocket for soap.
C. By producing soap with a production line.
D. By employing more women to recycle soap.
58. What might be a problem Lakhani is faced with now?
A. How to protect the soap during the transportation.
B. How to get the soap to where it needs to be.
C. When to send the soap to developing countries.
D. How to give guidance on sanitizing the leftover soap.
59. Which words can best describe Samir Lakhani?
A. Traditional,awesome and warm-hearted.
B. Thoughtful,clever but unfriendly.
C. Careful,knowledgeable and honest.
D. Kind,intelligent and responsible.
60. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. How Sanitized Soap Can be Used
B. How Hotel Soap Can be Recycled
C. How Recycling Hotel Soap Can Save Lives
D. How Reproducing Soap Scraps Can Save Money
C
Research has shown that behavioral signaling is largely universal — not only across cultures, but across species. Based on this knowledge, Cogito Corp. has created an artificial intelligence (AI) technology to analyze behavioral and vocal cues to provide in-the-moment guidance during conversations, making individuals more emotionally intelligent.
“Artificial intelligence continues to have a transformational effect across industries. One area we see specific accelerated advancement in with this technology, is machine learning,”said Dr. John Kane of Cogito. “Much of the advancement in machine learning is due to the fact that it’s not far removed from our daily lives. Take Amazon’s Alexa as a household example: Alexa can recognize and respond to whispered speech for voice commands, made possible through machine learning advancement,”Kane continued. He also pointed out that “media has built unrealistic expectations in the minds of the general public when it comes to AI, where in fact, machine learning algorithms are still generally developed for narrowly defined purposes.”
Cogito was founded with the mission of helping humans communicate with more emotional intelligence. Presently, it helps individuals across enterprise-level organizations, mainly in the insurance, healthcare and financial service industries, create stronger customer service outcomes with the help of the Cogito AI coach.“Our goal is to provide in-the-moment guidance to individuals within enterprise call centers so they can adjust their behavior and improve customer experiences,”Kane said.
Cogito’s AI technology aims to offer a win-win-win model for companies — improving agent performance so that employees are more occupied with their work, customers are more satisfied and the company is more productive. Cogito’s in-the-moment guidance identifies patterns and cues that may be easily overlooked, giving consistent recommendations to agents in real time. This focused level of analysis helps managers coach high-performing agents to be more consistent and low-performing agents to identify areas for improvement — positively impacting companies.
Looking to the future, Cogito’s CEO and co-founder, Joshua Feast, sees an opportunity to own the AI coaching space. AI coaches guide humans to improve their individual and team performance, resulting in a more productive, emotionally intelligent and successful workforce.
61. What’s the main reason for machine learning’s advancement?
A. Its connections with our daily lives.
B. Its being a basic area of AI technology.
C. An increasing demand for the technology.
D. Media’s efforts to promote the technology.
62. What do you know about AI from Kane’s words?
A. It has wider uses than expected.
B. What it can do now may be overestimated.
C. It is far from familiar to the public.
D. Most advanced AI technologies remain unknown to the public.
63. Why was Cogito established?
A. To bring greater advancement in machine learning.
B. To reveal the behavioral differences between humans.
C. To make humans more emotionally intelligent in conversations.
D. To help companies monitor and measure employees’ work performance.
64. Where is Cogito’s AI technology mainly applied?
A. In small companies.
B. In educational agencies.
C. In international trading.
D. In the service industry.
65. What can be inferred about Cogito’s AI technology?
A. It faces a lot of challenges.
B. It seems to have a bright future.
C. It may replace the human workforce sooner or later.
D. It is disadvantageous to low-performing employees.

If you are ever planning to buy a telescope and want to get yourself involved in astronomy, it is always a good idea to know a bit of the sky. Know about a few constellations(星座)so that it will be easier for you to recognize the constellations when you are using your telescope.
It's a good idea to buy a few astronomy magazines to help you know about the constellations in the sky and also read a few comments on different types of telescopes on the market. This will help you gather all the information that is out there regarding telescopes and what people say about them.
It's advisable to go in for a pair of binoculars(双筒望远镜)which are very easy to carry and use before you buy your first telescope so that you can get used to locating constellations before your view of the sky is narrowed down. This will also help you know if you really want to get involved in astronomy. Many people buy a costly telescope and then discover that they're not actually interested in astronomy.
It's an obvious truth that experience has no replacement, and there certainly is nothing better than using different telescopes before you buy one,which will help you to get the feel of all the types of telescopes and you will know which one is easier for you to use. A large aperture refractor telescope(大口径折射望远镜)may give you an excellent picture but you may not be able to hold it firmly while using it, which may result in an unclear picture.
There are three types of telescopes that are available on the market. The first type of telescope is the refractor telescope, which provides a good picture but is not as easy to carry as the other two types of telescopes and so you will have to buy one with a small aperture. The second type of telescope is the reflecting telescope, invented by Isaac Newton.There is no added color in the picture caused by refraction of light. This type of telescope is easy to carry and the cheapest of all. The third type of telescope is known as the catadioptric telescope(折反射望远镜), which is the smallest type of all the telescopes and is more popular among astronomers.
66.What will be required if one wants to use a telescope effectively?
A.The patience to search for constellations.
B. The ability to recognize constellations.
C.The desire to learn about the history of telescopes.
D.The willingness to listen to others' comments.
67. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A.One must know something about astronomy and telescopes.
B.One can't buy a telescope without buying several astronomy magazines.
C.One should check the telescopes on the market and try to find a better one.
D.One must be familiar with new information of astronomy and space instruments.
68. What does one need to do before buying a telescope?
A. To seek advice from some experienced telescope users.
B. To get used to using at least one type of telescope.
C. To know whether he is really interested in astronomy.
D. To bargain with the seller over the price of the telescope.
69. Generally speaking,which type of telescope is the biggest in size?
A. Binoculars.
B. The catadioptric telescope.
C. The reflecting telescope.
D. The refractor telescope.
70. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. An Introduction to Astronomy
B. Buying A Telescope For the First Time
C. The Competitive Market of Telescopes
D. The Advantages and Disadvantages of Several Telescopes
第四部分:写作(共两节,满分35分)
第一节:阅读表达(共 5 小题,每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)
Do you scan yourself in your early 20s already dressed in a smart suit as well as using a company phone? Currently more and more young people have been looking for internships(实习生职位) rather than Saturday jobs. But should people be expected to do a proper job at all while they're still young?
For many, weekend or evening work is a rite of passage that may involve cleaning toilets, milking cows or operating the machine that puts jam into a doughnut.
Plentiful teenagers or students aren't impressive in holding down a part-time job. But it's a opportunity to try to experience the world of work and take a crucial first step into adulthood.
But the number of young people doing a Saturday job has decreased by a half in 15 years, according to the UK Commission for Employment and Skills. It's economic downturn that has kept it rough for young people to find any kind of job. And many enterprises put forward higher requirement, which are associated with this phenomenon as well. For those seeking a career, there is now greater pressure to choose professional jobs and get work experience.
Those who go on to successful careers often mention their days of waiting tables or picking fruit as experiences of growth.Actor Sean Connery may have the 007 role as a protuberance on his CV while he embarked on working as a milkman when only 14. George Clooney once strove for selling women's shoes.
What is a proper job? White collar work is a golden job that a host of people want to obtain and professionals in finance, advertising, journalism and the law often work exceedingly long hours. However, there is a sense that sitting at a desk all one's life is not always real work in the same way as some other jobs are.
Dr Paul Sissons, senior researcher at the Work Foundation, argues that the solid choice to realised occupation triumph could be getting eminent grades. He says that formal qualifications still influence employers' decision.
71. According to the passage, what are the examples given of Saturday jobs?(no more than 15 words)
72. What’s made it more difficult for young people to find a job?(no more than 8 words)
73. What does the underlined word “protuberance” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?(1 word)
74. According to an expert mentioned in the article, what could be the best way of achieving career success?(no more than 5 words)
75.As a student who will step into the society, how do you plan for your future career?(no more than 25 words)

W: Well,I should also eat healthily to lower the risk of heart attack. And I need to lose a few pounds, too. Sitting in front of the computer for a long time every day like this has made me gain weight.
M: So do I. I guess you should come to the health club after work with me.
W: You've joined a health club? I would never have dreamed that you'd take something like this so seriously. M:So,how about it? Can you tear yourself away from the TV tonight?
W:Why not? If you can break your unhealthy eating habits, I can surely break a sweat.

M: Hello,boys and girls! Attention, please! When the weather gets warm, people love to play in the water, especially you students. During summer vacation, many like to swim in lakes and rivers. Others like to swim in the ocean. But water can be dangerous. About 10 people die from drowning each day in the USA. These simple rules will help you enjoy the water safely this summer.
Above all,learn to swim.If you can't swim,don't go into the water. You can take a swimming class. Swimming is much easier than you may think.
Classes are available at schools and our sports centers. I will be your trainer and I'm sure I'll teach you perfect swimming skills.
Don't swim alone. When you go swimming, always swim with another person, maybe your friend or parent. The two of you can watch out for each other. If something happens, one of you can go and get help.
Finally, be careful. Choose to swim in areas with lifeguards. If you need help, the lifeguard can help you. When you play in the water, don't push or jump on others. Boating is another way to enjoy the water. But when you're in a boat, wear a life jacket. If you falI into the deep water, you will be safe with that. In short, enjoy the water, but remember to do it safely and welcome to learn
from me!
