Don't miss out-save￡100 pp

We don't think an excuse is required, but here is one of many great reasons why you

should book your next ski holiday now-our saver week discount is coming to an end! All

of our holidays are discounted by￡100 per person every week in January and mid-March.

Why do we recommend January skiing?

Undoubtedly your primary concern when choosing a ski holiday is the snow. With temperatures at their coldest and slopes (斜坡) at their quietest, it's safe to say good snow conditions are almost guaranteed.

New year, new gear! For those of you renting equipment and/or clothing, you can be

sure to find some brand new hire ready to carve through that fresh January powder.

If you're looking to avoid the busy school holidays, you've hit a jackpot. The slopes

are empty and you don't have to wait long!

If you're unsure about January, mid-March skiing could be for you.

March has an excellent track record for snowfall and you're guaranteed to spend most lunch times bathing in the sun! March can offer the best of both worlds with fresh snow and blue bird days.

Similarly to January holidays, March is often far quieter than December and February periods. Remember, the sooner you can get up those lifts, the sooner you can slide down the freshly cleaned pistes (滑雪道).

We're confident we have a ski holiday perfect for you. Don't wait though, book before the end of the month to save ￡100 pp. Call us now at 0208 875 1957!

21. What is the major concern of people who want to take a ski holiday?

A. Price range.                    B. Snow conditions.

C. Temperature changes.          D. Equipment rental.

22. Why is mid-March a special time for skiing?

A. It is far quieter than January.

B. It can help avoid busy school holidays.

C. It has a record for the lowest temperature.

D. It guarantees both fresh snow and sunny days.

23. What is the purpose of the text?

A. To spread knowledge about skiing.

B. To encourage more people to ski.

C. To offer skiers some suggestions.

D. To advertise a ski holiday discount.

Jo Land was surprised when she realized how much her youngest son's school uniform cost. "A jumper was￡25. A polo shirt was￡15," she says. "If it was this expensive for us, how on earth must families with three or four children manage?"

In December 2021, Land put a box outside her house, with a sign reading, "School uniform drop-off". She set up a Facebook group and asked people to drop good-quality used uniforms into the box. The operation started to grow almost immediately. “Some weeks I give out up to 48 uniforms," she says. People drive up and drop the clothing: she

sorts through it, keeps it in her “stock room" and posts details about donations on the Facebook group. The first parent to message her gets the items for nothing. Land puts the items in a named bag and then returns it to the box. Recipients (接受者) can come and collect at their leisure.

“Being able to access good-quality preloved school uniforms has been a lifeline," says Kristina, a mother of two. "It's just amazing."

“Every child going to school deserves to feel smart and proud," Land says. “We don't want children to go to school feeling negative, because that affects their learning. Land has noticed that people rarely take without also giving. Sometimes people leave flowers on the box, or they drop off some outgrown clothes too.

Right now, Land is thinking about all the people in her community who will struggle this winter and she gets so many messages from people who are absolutely desperate, because they cannot afford uniforms for their children. Her determination to ensure children can access the uniforms they deserve grows ever stronger.

24. What inspired Land to set up the free uniform exchange?

A. Her personal experience.

B. The appeals on Facebook.

C. Poor families' complaints.

D. Her youngest son's request.

25. What does paragraph 2 focus on?

A. How the school uniforms are selected.

B. The importance of the Facebook group.

C. The popularity of the exchange project.

D. How the school uniform exchange works.

26. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?

A. School learning is associated with fashion.

B. Recipients are required to give by the project.

C. Many people in Land's community need uniforms.

D. Land is motivated to design new uniforms for children.

27. Which of the following words can best describe Land?

A. Brave and grateful.

B. Honest and energetic.

C. Kind-hearted and creative.

D. Ambitious and humorous.

C

Nowadays, the term “quiet quitting" has taken over the Internet, meaning lying flat, or taking a break from the overwork. It appears to have originated from a TikTok video posted by Brian Creely. Creely showed an Insider article written by senior reporter Aki Ito. The headline read, "Fed up with long hours, many employees have quietly decided to take it easy at work rather than quit their jobs." Creely said, “More people are quiet quitting instead of leaving." The video has received nearly 100,000 likes and more than 4,000 comments, the vast majority describing the benefits of doing the bare minimum.

Despite a number of news outlets reporting that quiet quitting is a trend that is being encouraged, Insider found many users on the app were actually warning people against doing so.

Ashley Herd, a former employment lawyer, posted two videos about quiet quitting. In her videos, she argued that while limiting work to what is specified in the job description is fine, doing so quietly can be detrimental. “If someone is stressed out, they should feel able to have that conversation with their manager," she said.

A TikToker and consultant Mary posted a video titled “Minorities should be careful

quiet quitting". In the video, she said, “Unfortunately in America minorities are held to a

different standard. We are looked at differently. So we have to go above and beyond to be successful. We can't risk being regarded as not performing."

In recent weeks, TikTokers have been warning workers that quiet quitting could lead

to “quiet firing", labeled as a new workplace trend. The phrase describes the longstanding practice of constructive dismissal-creating an environment that leads a worker to quit their job in order to avoid having to fire them. Creators are receiving hundreds of thousands of views that post about quiet firing and call out managers who employ the practice.

28. What aspect of quiet quitting is introduced in paragraph 1?

A. Its origin.    B. Its innovation.  C. Its value.  D. Its standard.

29. What does the underlined word“detrimental" mean in paragraph 3?

A. Strange.       B.Harmful.       C.Vital.      D.Effective.

30. What is Mary's opinion on minorities at work?

A. They needn't perform well.

B. They should make greater efforts.

C. They have better chances of success.

D. They are treated as equally as others.

31. Which of the following can be a sign of quiet firing in the workplace?

A. The boss asks a worker to leave the job.

B. The boss allows a worker flexible working hours.

C. The boss puts off a worker's promotion on purpose.

D. The boss provides a worker with a new environment.

D

Trick or treat! With Halloween around the corner, kids are about to collect bags full of

candy, including chocolate. Meanwhile, a group of researchers in the Netherlands has been experimenting with a method to make chocolate more of a “treat" than ever.

While chocolate is delicious for many reasons, this study focused on how it cracks when it is bitten. Corentin Coulais, the researcher teaching physics at the University of Amsterdam says, "To better how it feels in the mouth, we gave “geometry (几何学)" to

chocolate, which would then change the way it breaks."

Giving it "geometry" involved using a 3D printer to produce dark chocolate in various

ways. Rather than creating a flat, solid piece, the machine printed it into a simple S-shape, or zigzagged super-thin layers back-and-forth several times, or into increasingly complicated spirals (螺旋形). The resulting pieces were fed to 10 eager volunteers. It turned out that the crunchiest (最松脆的)-while remaining easy to bite-was the chocolate shaped into fairly complicated spirals. It was also the top tasting experience.

The researchers also used a machine to crack the various shapes and see which was the crunchiest. Plus, they recorded the sounds of the cracking, because a pleasurable eating experience doesn't only take place in the mouth, but can be affected by the noises in your head. The general winner remained that spiral.

“It's too early to say whether chocolate will soon be made differently," Coulais says.

He is working with a couple of organizations to see how it might be applied in materials other than chocolate-ones that might be used in vehicles, for example, to make them less dangerous when they crash.

Understanding cracking could make life safer-in cars or airplanes or wearing helmets. It could also make those Halloween treats even tastier.

32. How does the author introduce the topic of the text?

A. By discussing a case.

B. By making a prediction.

C. By presenting a scene.

D. By explaining a phenomenon.

33. What is the function of the 3D printer used in the experiment?

A. To explore the way chocolate breaks.

B. To create chocolate in various shapes.

C. To improve chocolate tasting experience.

D. To record the sounds of chocolate cracking.

34. What does Coulais most expect after the study?

A. The attraction of Halloween treats.

B. The change in chocolate production.

C. The growing awareness of driving safety.

D. The application of the findings in other fields.

35. What is a suitable title for the text?

A. Geometry makes a tastier chocolate

B. Complicated spirals are the champion

C. A knowledge of cracking matters a lot

D. The crunchiest chocolate is newly born

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Shoppers are being warned by consumer advocates of a new wave of “shrinkflation (缩水式通胀)"-—where companies shrink the net weight of a prepackaged product while still charging the same price, or sometimes more. __36__

The Queensland Consumers' Associatio n(QCA) has sounded the alarm on the issue, saying it's already received reports of consumers getting less value for money at the checkout.

__37__ This practice has been a common issue in Australia too,with eagle-eyed members of CHOICE's Community forum sharing examples of shrinkage since 2016, calling out everything from pet food to breakfast cereal(谷类食物) .

Pet food label Purina One said it had been forced to shrink the sizes of its products to keep them affordable for shoppers. __38__ In fact, we've discovered several examples in the supermarket cereal shelf. One is Kellogg's Crunchy Nut, which sold for $6 for 670g in 2019, but now sells for $9 for 640g in 2022.

The QCA says the easiest way to know if companies are sizing down your favourite

products is to check the weight and quantity displayed on the packaging. __39__ You can also check the unit price. The unit price breaks down the cost of a product into standard units of measurement, showing how much an item costs per 100g. If a product has undergone changes in both price and quantity, unit pricing will tell you whether you're still getting the same value for money as before. __40__

A. However, it's not just pet products.

B. Once a product gets smaller, it often stays that way.

C. The issue has already been making headlines in the US.

D. But in some cases, companies' profits are also increasing sharply.

E. By these numbers, you can quickly spot if your supermarket products shrink.

F. If you're not, it can help you find a different pack size that is worth the money.

G. Companies have admitted reducing the size of their goods due to increasing costs.

Nowadays, many people hurry to get from one place to another as efficiently as possible that those who enjoy shooting the breeze—chatting for fun-—are often left without eager participants. But not everyone is going through life just looking ahead, and that's a good thing.

Justen Crumpton from Hueytown, Alabama, is one of those people who enjoy talking to complete strangers. In her own words, “If you know me at all, you know, I love to involve myself in others' conversations, even if they are complete strangers." At times, that has annoyed her family, but in November it had a wholly unexpected effect.

On Nov. 7, the Alabama mother was shocked by the kindness of a stranger who treated her to an early Christmas gift after a chance encounter. As a mom with three girls

and a new baby boy, she didn't buy things for herself a lot. That day, Crumpton went with

her mom and sister to try and finish up Christmas shopping, wearing her new born boy in

a baby wrap.

As they were walking along after doing some shopping, Crumpton saw two men standing near a Von Maur UGGs display highlighting a particular pair of shoes that happened to be the ones she'd been eying for the last 5 years. Seeing her opportunity for a. little pleasant casual talk, she paused and jokingly offered the men shopping advice, “If you are shopping for your girl, then get her these," pointing to a certain pair. Then she told them she had been asking for them for the past five years. She laughed and started to walk away. While at that moment, one of the men said in surprise "FIVE YEARS!" She turned around and laughed some more, saying “yes!" and was joyfully ready to continue her way.
