一、阅读理解    Though many people think of summer as a time to slow down and enjoy a vacation, it can also be the perfect time to make money or get experience. Here are some good summer jobs for you.    Survey-taking    Survey-taking is a way to make money during your summer holiday, especially if you live in an area that doesn’t have many chances. With a computer or smartphone, you can sit on your sofa and search for survey sites such as Surveys On The Go, InboxDollars or Swagbucks. Without much effort, you can start making money for your opinions. However, the ease of use comes with a low earning potential.    Food Delivery(递送)    If you enjoy driving, you can use your car to deliver food. You can sign up to deliver food from restaurants with services such as Uber Eats, DoorDash and Grubhub. Another choice is delivering daily used goods with services such as Postmates, Shipt and Instacart. The earning potential for delivery can be higher than for other jobs because customers often give tips. The disadvantage is that these jobs require you to put in more time.    Photo Applications    If you go to the mall, you can use an app such as Field Agent or Gigwalk to make money by taking pictures of products in stores. See any help-wanted signs in the store windows? Take a picture and get paid for each one you find.    House Sitting and Pet Care    Summer is a time when people take vacations and may need someone to look after their homes or pets. Services such as HouseSitter and MindMyHouse connect homeowners with proper house sitters(看房人). For animal lovers who would rather care for someone’s pet while they are away, you can turn to services like Rover.1、What do we know about making money through Survey-Taking?A.It’s interesting.  B.It requires little effort.C.It takes much time.  D.It requires special knowledge.2、Why is the earning potential for Food Delivery higher than for other jobs?A.You can get some extra reward. B.You work longer hours.C.You need to drive your own car. D.You deliver food for many people.3、Which app should you use if you enjoy looking after animals?A.Swagbucks. B.Uber Eats. C.HouseSitter. D.Rover.    What began as a summer job has now taken young Brennan McVey to the steps of the Rockaway Township Municipal building and the mayor’s(镇长的) office. Known by his neighbors and the township as the “Rubbish Bin Manager”, McVey was given a special mention during the regular Rockaway Township Council meeting on October 25, for his work to help his neighbors and prevent unwanted run-ins with the local bear population. “Our children are our future, and when a child can respond to needs by making a decision that gives a community a chance to improve its quality of life, it represents a great moment for our township. McVey is a shining example of a positive person,” Mayor Michael Dachisen read to the public.    The 10-year-old Green Pond boy had an idea in 2016 of helping to stop bears in his neighborhood from becoming endangered “troublemakers” by helping his neighbors take out the rubbish the morning of its pickup.    McVey, who is a fifth-grader at Katherine D. Malone Elementary School, noticed that some of his neighbors would leave the rubbish out the night before, an open invitation to bears. “I saw a lot of bears in the neighborhood and I thought I could help,” he said. On collection day, McVey gets up early in the morning and heads to the houses of the neighbors who agreed to pay a small fee to have the young businessman bring out their rubbish to the curb(路缘).    “We had a lot of bear sightings in our community. This is one way to stop the bears from coming in by keeping the food source out of their way,” the mayor added.    McVey has turned the Rubbish Bin Manager into a business, posting fliers (传单) around Green Pond, and his neighborhood has really taken to the idea.4、What can we infer about McVey from the first paragraph?A. He is well recognized.B. He really loves bears.C. He is thankful for Dachisen’s work.D. He has always been willing to take a summer job.5、Why does McVey pick up the rubbish on collection day?A. To make money.   B. To leave food for bears.C. To protect the environment.  D. To help bears and the community.6、What did McVey’s neighbors think of his business?A. It was great.   B. It was too risky for him.C. It went against a lot of old ideas.  D. It would stay popular for a short time.7、Which of the following can best describe McVey?A. Brave and strict.   B. Caring and warm-hearted.C. Humorous and open-minded.  D. Talkative and sporty.    Vitamin B could help lessen the effects of the most dangerous type of air pollution, according to a new study published recently. In the first study of its kind, a team of international researchers looked at the damage caused by one of the pollutants that has the most serious impact on health: PM2.5.    Particulate matter, or PM, is a type of air pollutant consisting of small particles(微粒) of different sizes. PM2.5 has a diameter of fewer than 2.5 micrometers, about 30 times smaller than a human hair. These particles are so small that they can go into our respiratory system(呼吸系统), resulting in lung and systemic inflammation(炎症) and stress.    The team found that something as simple as a daily vitamin B supplement could potentially reduce the impact of the tiny particles on the human body, although they stressed that the research was in its early stages and the sample size was small.    For this study,10 volunteers were initially exposed to clean air and given a placebo (安慰剂) to check their responses. The group then took another placebo for four weeks before being exposed to heavily polluted air from downtown Toronto, where an estimated 1,000 cars pass every hour. The bad air was delivered to the volunteers through an “oxygen-type” face mask. The experiment was then repeated, with each volunteer taking a vitamin B supplement daily made up of 2.5 mg of folic acid (叶酸), 50 mg of vitamin B6,and 1 mg of vitamin B12. B6 can be found in liver, chicken and nuts, and B12 in fish, meat, eggs, milk and some cereals.    The researchers found that four weeks of vitamin B supplements reduced the damage of PM2.5 exposure by 28%-76%. The results highlight how prevention at an individual level could be used to fight the harmful effects of PM2.5.8、Why is PM2.5 harmful to our health?A.It pollutes and poisons the air.B.It is too much to be got rid of.C.It is easily breathed in and damages our body.D.It carries viruses and diseases9、What can we infer from Paragraph 3?A.The process of the research was not scientific.B.This kind of research has been done many times.C.Further studies are needed to confirm their findings.D.Vitamin B is hard to obtain in people’s daily life.10、What is the text mainly about?A.Vitamin B could reduce the damage of PM2.5.B.International researchers have a new finding.C.Particulate matter does great harm to our health.D.Emission control and regulation are badly needed.11、The new study was probably published ________.A.in a science journal B.on a government websiteC.in a fashion magazine D.in a medical textbook    There's a good reason people say laughter is the best medicine. In a recent study from Rehabilitation Nursing Journal, researchers looked at changes in loneliness for older adults in nursing homes after receiving laughter therapy (疗法). Each of the 31 participants received laughter therapy twice a week for six weeks, while the same number of controls only received usual care. At the end of the six weeks, those who participated in laughter therapy reported less loneliness than the control group.    Laughter therapy is a low-key option that you can practice in many ways. Jenna Pascual, a laughter yoga teacher, hosts group and one-on-one classes with seniors. She starts by guiding people through warmups to get comfortable with stimulating laughter. These may involve deep breathing exercises, clapping and light stretches paired with laughter, and call-and-response laughter. She then transitions(转变) to laughter around a theme, such as a Hawaiian beach party or Star Wars, pairing laughter with small movements.    Many forms of laughter therapy are available to all. “Laughter therapy is great for people with disabilities,” says Katie Ziskind, a marriage and family therapist. Pascual also works with people in wheelchairs or hospital beds.     Rehabilitation Nursing's study is one in a long line of research confirming laughter's ability to improve well-being in older adults. In a 2015 study from the International Journal of Nursing and Midwifery, people aged 60 or older at a retirement center attended two 90-minute laughter therapy classes a week for six weeks. At the end of the experiment, participants had improved general health. In a 2016 study from Nursing Open, older adults at an elderly daycare center had laughter therapy once a week for four weeks. The participants experienced reduced depression, along with increased sociability.    While you can try laughter therapy alone, there are advantages to doing it with others. “I want to stress the power of simply hearing laughter and watching others enjoying themselves laughing,” says Pascual. “I've worked with seniors who were not in the mood to laugh, but after hearing and watching others laugh in my classes, they ended up laughing with us.”12、How did the researchers do the recent study?A. By offering participants different types of laughter therapyB. By controlling the time of laughter therapy for the same participants.C. By studying the effects of laughter therapy on disabled people.D. By comparing participants having laughter therapy with those not having.13、What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A. Why laughter is the best medicine.B. How seniors react to laughter therapy.C. What Pascual does to help disabled people.D. How Pascual teaches her laughter yoga classes.14、Why does the author mention the two studies in paragraph 4?A. To compare them with the recent study.B. To show the benefits of laughter therapy.C. To state the popularity of laughter therapy.D. To talk about old people's health problems.15、What do Pascual's words in the last paragraph show?A. Making a person laugh is hard. B. Laughter helps reduce loneliness.C. People may laugh at different things. D. Laughter can spread among people.二、七选五16、    Science fiction, or sci-fi, with more themes related to environmental issues, overpopulation, and technological growth, has explosively (爆发地) grown in popularity since the beginning of the 21st century. ①_____    Some Chinese Sci-Fi History    ②_____ Few works were translated. And the Western world had little to no taste for it.    The history of Chinese sci-fi is extensive, but the modern genre first took root during the 1900s.Authors such as Lu Xun promoted sci-fi’s early development in China and translated multiple Western stories like Jules Verne’s From the Earth to the Moon. Following the 1970s, China began its own golden age of science fiction. Movies, clubs, magazines, societies and communities formed around this genre and became increasingly popular among Chinese readers. ③_____    Its Entry into the West    Chinese sci-fi has become internationally recognized, mainly because of Ken Liu, who translated The Three-Body Problem, the first contemporary Chinese sci-fi novel to be translated into English. ④_____ Chinese sci-fi’s introduction into the West began with this novel, and it couldn’t have been given a better international debut(亮相). Liu has become a go-to source for Chinese authors seeking international audiences.    What Makes Chinese Sci-Fi Distinctive (独特的)The subgenre is unique for using a number of cultural and traditional objects, words, places and beliefs. ⑤_____ The stories are also different because many modern Chinese sci-fi authors were heavily affected by the events of the 20th century.

As soon as he realized it was a bird and saw its wide wings and even its head popping up, he knew what it was.    It was a giant eagle. Eagles can actually get waterlogged (浸水的) as compared to other large birds that can go in the water and get out. It’s not strange to see eagles go into the water to catch fish and then pop back up, but this thing was wet through and struggling to stay above the water. It was trying to swim and trying to fly away, but it just couldn’t get out of the water at all. The large bird’s only chance to get out itself was by swimming but it was about a kilometer to shore(岸边) in any direction.    Seeing the state of the bird, Bacon knew he needed to do something to help it out. Lindsay started recording and caught what happened next on video, while their son lay on a seat across from Bacon.    Bacon brought the boat close to the eagle. It took a few tries. But after about fifteen minutes, Bacon was actually able to take hold of the bird and bring it into the boat. “People must have just thought I had a dog on my lap, but from my bottom to my head, he was the same height as me,” said Bacon.    As soon as the bird was in the boat, it immediately took off and dropped into the water again.注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。    “We need to pick it up again, so let’s turn around,” said Bacon. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________    The whole community just came down to watch this eagle.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Then, being more tolerant will strengthen your friendship to some extent. Specifically speaking, you are expected to absorb others' precious advice and discuss with others when disagreements arises. As for the study, modesty and hard work are fundamental to excellent academic performance. Additionally, I strongly suggest you set a specific goal and manage your time properly, which are bound to improve your study efficiency.    Wish you a successful high school life and a promising future.解析： 34、答案：    “We need to pick it up again, so let’s turn around,” said Bacon. This time out of the water, the eagle held onto Bacon with its sharp nails and ended up making holes in his jacket as Bacon held it for the entire trip back to shore. It finally calmed down and just sat there looking so cold. Bacon and Lindsay sailed their boat back to shore. Bacon put the bird down on the shore and watched it open its wings and try to dry off, which drew the attention of others.    The whole community just came down to watch this eagle. It just stood there shaking with cold and hopefully warming up a bit. Once the bird got dry enough to fly, it took off and landed on another boat. Bacon was glad that he was there to help out. “You never get up close to an eagle. Holding an animal that’s as wide as you are tall when it opens up its wings is a next-level experience. I totally get why people commit their lives to this cause,” said Bacon. Wildlife officials contacted Bacon a short time later and everyone was glad to know the bird would be okay.
