Cities have been described as essential to climate change solutions, but they can also raise the kinds of
ecologists that will bring us into a more comprehensive biological future.
As a black wildlife biologist from Philadelphia, I stood out among my coworkers. My presence in ecology has
challenged assumptions about not only what a biologist looks like, but also where a biologist comes from. In the
页
3第
U.S., ecology was and is mainly white and conducted in rural landscapes, but I had no history of camping, fishing,
hunting or hiking. I had yet to recognize that Philadelphia, with its four seasons and richness of squirrels (松鼠), row
homes and festivals, was actually my first ecological classroom. There I witnessed wild cats eating birds and rats,
people shooting bats from their homes and snakes being killed by lawn mowers (割草机). This is as much ecology in
action as anything we witness in fields and forests.
Urban wild animals exhibit many features and behaviors that set them apart from their rural twins: they may be
bigger, eat more diverse food sources, are active at different times of the day, move differently and have diffe rent
personalities. Some biologists argue they are even “smarter”. Besides, urban wildlife balances more risks—such as
road chemical poisons and diseases from domestic animals—with rewards. Some of those rewards come from
humans providing food and some from the distribution of our parks and water bodies.
In our professional lives as biologists, living with such wild animals can make us more tolerant of species
diversity, which can benefit the natural world. Nature is no longer only primitive wilderness but includes sounds of
human laughter and garbage trucks. We expect more biologists from urban settings because urban environments
naturally train keen observers who are the future of ecology.
4. Which makes the author stand out among his coworkers?
A His nationality.
B. His city background.
D. His love for animals.
C. His interest in outdoor activities.
5. What does the underlined “they” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Urban wild animals.
B. Rural animals.
C. Domestic animals.
D. Wildlife biologists.
6. What do we know about urban wild animals?
A. They have trouble in getting food.
C. They do better in fighting diseases.
7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Urban Wild Animals Survive.
C. Cities Build Better Biologists.
C
B. They enjoy safer living conditions.
D. They are more adaptable to environment.
B. Benefits of City Conservation.
D. A Black Biologist from Philadelphia.
Chatting in her bright two bedroom flat, Shirley Meredeen, aged 91, doesn’t hesitate in describing the benefits
of living here. “It keeps my brain going. We are all very active because there is so much to do...We’re really lucky to
have such a supportive community.”
In 1998, Meredeen first heard of the concept of cohousing as developed in the Netherlands and decided to copy
页
4第
its model in the UK and create the Older Women Cohousing (OWCH) with her friends. But they didn’t imagine that
it would be an 18-year struggle. The novelty of the idea coupled with the lack of data to prove the social and
economic benefits made it difficult for them to access public money. Councils always compared their idea to
sheltered accommodation and saw it as a burden for their already overstretched budgets.
In fact, the community-led housing is a departure from the conventional understanding of later life. Now, the
community comprises 25 flats as well as a shared kitchen, meeting room, laundry, garden, car park and a guest room.
People live together based on interdependence. They can take control of their future instead of relying on their
families or care homes. All the neighbours look out for each other, not after each other, which means accompanying
to medical appointments, doing the local shopping, having family contacts in preparation for an emergency... But the
limits of such informal care among residents still need to be worked out.
OWCH has paved the way to alternative living arrangements in later life and the support for community-led
housing is starting to emerge in the form of guidance and funding, according to UK Cohousing Network.
8. What do we know about Meredeen?
A. She first tried cohousing in the Netherlands.
B. She is a regular visitor to OWCH.
C. She is a pioneer in elderly care service.
D. She founded OWCH single-handed.
9. Why did it take such a long time to set up OWCH?
A. It didn’t benefit social economy.
B. It didn’t keep up with the time.
C. It called for careful budgeting.
D. It was hard to get public funding.
10. Which is probably the reason why seniors choose OWCH?
A. They are more independent.
B. They are responsible for each other.
C. They receive more care services.
11. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To describe an ambitious figure.
C. To ensure elderly people’s welfare.
D. They can rely on their relatives.
B. To introduce a new lifestyle of seniors.
D. To inspire the aged to achieve their dreams.
D
We live in an age when all scientific knowledge — from the safety of vaccines (疫苗) to the reality of climate
change — faces organized and often angry opposition. Doubters have declared war on the consensus (共识) of
experts. It seems that people have turned argumentative overnight.
In a sense, all this is not surprising. Our lives are affected by science and technology as never before. The world
页
5第
seems full of real and imaginary dangers. Though scientists agree that the Ebola virus is spread only by direct
contact with blood or body fluids (液体), if you type “airborne Ebola” into an Internet search engine, you’ll find that
some people believe that this virus has almost supernatural powers.
In this often confusing world, we need to rely on science to decide whether what we choose to believe has a
basis in the laws of nature or not. But science doesn’t come naturally to most of us. Science has often led us to truths
that are really mind-blowing. For example, although the roundness of the Earth has been known for thousands of
years, some still feel it hard to accept.
Even when people become scientifically educated most of them still try to make sense of the world by relying
on personal experience, stories or emotions rather than statistics. When they hear a number of cancer cases in a town
with a dangerous waste dump (垃圾场), they believe pollution caused the cancers. Yet two things happening
together doesn’t mean one caused the other. Even when they turn to the Internet, they let in only the information they
agree with to strengthen beliefs that have already been shaped by their worldview.
How can scientists convince doubters? Throwing more facts at people may not be enough. More efforts are
supposed to be made.
12. What’s the text mainly about?
A. How people view the world.
B. What challenges science faces.
C. Whether science is worth respect.
D. Why people show disbelief in science.
13. What does the underlined word “mind-blowing” probably mean?
A. Unbelievable.
C. Dangerous.
B. Desirable.
D. Obvious.
14. How do “people” in paragraph 4 understand the world?
A. They apply logical thinking.
B. They stick to their own beliefs.
C. They form the views on assumptions.
D. They rely on the information on the Internet.
15. How does the author prove his opinions?
A. Through comparison.
C. By giving examples.
B. Through quotation.
D. By making definitions.

Back in January, I was determined to get fit seriously. ____16____ But then just as I was close to giving up
页
6第
again, I discovered a brilliant new way to make exercise better: by turning it into a video-game.
Zwift is essentially a cycling game that you control by riding your real bike, which is equipped with a device
called a turbo-trainer. This makes it like an exercise bike. As you ride, the trainer sends signals to your computer or
tablet to control the character on screen. ____17____ For example, as you’re cycling up a hill in the game, you can
actually feel the different levels of resistance on the bike.
After signing up for a £12/month subscription you can participate in virtual cycle rides in 3D-recreations of real
places, like London or in fantastical fictional locations invented by the game designers. ____18____ As you cycle
along The Mall towards Buckingham Palace, other real human cyclists appear alongside you, sharing the journey.
Though it is obviously only a game, just seeing the character move is surprisingly motivating.
____19____ Go a little faster and you’ll be rewarded with a little achievement marker. If you ride harder, you
might win a race against another real player and unlock a new item in a regular video game, which can never be
matched by a traditional exercise bike.
I’m not the only person who has noticed this. ____20____ Today there are many other companies chasing the
same audience, and they all offer their own unique twists on the formula.
A. Zwift makes it easy to work out.
B. And importantly, you’re not alone.
C. The rest of the tech industry has, too.
D. I played Zwift, a cycling game for training.
E. And then the game sends instructions back to the trainer.
F. Smartly, the tricks of video-games will keep pushing you.
G. This would mean hours’ stretching and sweating each week.

A Community Puts on a Dazzling Display of Support
In Sara’s family, putting up Christmas lights was always a big day of celebration. Every year, just after
Thanksgiving Day, her dad Anthony, 70, would visit local stores to check out new decorations and then excitedly
string lights and hang decorations in and out of the house. The dazzling (绚烂的) display made him a hit in the
community.
On 2020 Christmas Eve, as usual, the whole house twinkled with lights, and gifts were piled under the tree.
While everyone was looking forward to enjoying another Christmas together as a family, Sara, got a call: the whole
family had tested positive for COVID-19. Their Christmas celebration had to be canceled.
At first, everyone’s symptoms (症状) seemed manageable. But right after the new year, Anthony started having
页
9第
trouble breathing and unfortunately passed away two weeks later, though the rest had recovered from COVID-19.
The following week of planning the funeral was the worst for Sara and her husband, Frank. Sorrow left them
doubled over in pain. The saddest of all was that no neighbours attended her father’s funeral. Only the twinkling
Christmas lights at night brought them a little bit joy. The lights were one of the last moments they had of their
beloved father, so they kept them up.
One morning in February, Sara received an envelope. “Take your Christmas lights down! It’s Valentine’s
Day!!!” the unsigned letter read. Sara looked at the paper in shock. Then she got angry. She could have bottled up
that anger, but she decided to write about it instead. She logged on to a local community Facebook group and shared
the letter. She ended the post with this: “We all had a tough year. Be kind to people because you never know what
they are going through.”
注意:
1.续写词数应为 150左右;

【答案】Dear Zhang Ming,
I’m glad to hear from you. You said that you are full of gratitude to your parents, but you don’t know how to
express it. I can quite understand your situation. In our traditional culture, we seldom express love and our feelings
directly to each other. Here I have some suggestions for you.
First, as you are at this stage, you should study hard and develop good living habits, and do not let parents worry.
Second, you can do some housework within your power to share the burden for parents. Besides, on holidays, you
can try writing thank-you letters or giving cards to our parents.
I hope my suggestions will be helpful
Yours,
Li Hua
【答案】One possible version:
Half an hour later, Frank rushed into the room excitedly, with his phone in the hand. “Honey, your post goes
viral!” exclaimed Frank. Sara hesitantly took over the phone and found hundreds of likes and comments under the
post. Some expressed their grief over the loss of her beloved dad and some showed anger towards the letter writer.
While slowly swiping across the screen with her fingertip and reading each comment, she was so moved that tears
streamed down her cheeks. And during the whole day Sara and Frank were bathed in the neighbours’ kindness and
页
11第
warmth.
When night fell, Sara and Frank were surprised by what they saw outside. Against the black night, she noticed
the neighbourhood was like a sea of lights. With the catchy Christmas songs echoing softly, the roofs of the buildings,
the windows, the gardens, the trees, the fences... all twinkled with colorful Christmas lights and were wrapped with
Christmas decorations. Undoubtedly, the neighbours had collectively hung their lights back. Seeing that, Sara and
Frank burst into tears. For them, the dazzling lights were not only the honour and memory of their beloved father, but
also an overwhelming display of the neighbours’ support.
