CHRISTMAS 2020 was shaping up to be a heartbreaker for Melanie Lee. A few weeks earlier, her 33-year-old son had lost his battle with a long illness. Then the transmission(车辆变速器) on her 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe conked out. She had no means of paying for it to be fixed.
"When it broke down, I broke down," Lee told CNN. "Now I don't have my baby, now I don't have transportation. How am I supposed to stay active in my grandchildren's lives?"
Enter Eliot Middleton, 38, is the owner of a barbecue restaurant and former auto mechanic who, in his free time, repairs and gives away used cars. He'd heard about Lee's situation from her nephew Frank McClary, the mayor of Andrews, South Carolina (population 3,000). On Christmas morning, Middleton showed up unannounced at Lee's home with a gift: a white 1993 Oldsmobile.
"I had no idea what was going on," said Lee. "He handed me the keys and didn't ask for anything." Once again, she's able to pick up her granddaughters from school and take them to dance class. "I got my freedom back."
The idea for the used-car giveaway came to Middleton a year earlier during a food drive he'd organized. Many of those who'd lined up for a meal walked up to four miles to get there because they didn't have cars.
Cars are a lifeline in this part of South Carolina, Middleton told CBS. "There's no public transportation, no Ubers, no taxis to take people to job interviews, doctor appointments, even food shopping." So he posted on Facebook an offer to trade slabs of his restaurant's specialty, barbecued ribs, for broken-down vehicles. Since then, friends and strangers have dropped off more than 100 cars in various states of disrepair. Many sit in Middleton's yard waiting to be fixed up and donated, usually to those he's heard about through word of mouth. It's a list of names that grows daily.
"People think Eliot is an angel," Mayor McClary told the Washington Post. "And I do too."
4、What do the underlined words "conked out" in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Broke out. B. Stopped working.
C. Fell apart. D. Got stuck.
5、Why did Melanie Lee break down during Christmas 2020?
A. Her son lost the battle with a long illness.
B. She couldn't drive to the places she liked.
C. She found it almost impossible to get her car repaired.
D. She couldn't get involved in the life of her grandchildren easily.
6、How did the idea for the used-car giveaway come to Middleton's mind?
A. He wanted to expand his business.
B. He was impressed by Melanie Lee's story.
C. He was inspired by the mayor of Andrews.
D. He realized cars were important for local residents.
7、Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Act of Kindness. B. Angels in Life.
C. Kindness on Auto. D. Donation of Cars.
Biologists in the United States are sounding an alarm about a deadly disease that has been attacking a quiet, intelligent animal: the bat. The disease, called white-nose syndrome, is an infection caused by a fungus (真菌) that attack the nose, wings, and other skin areas on the bodies of bats while they are hibernating (冬眠) in large groups in their caves. The disease was first discovered in a New York cave in the winter of 2006, and it is spreading quickly. Infected caves have been discovered in 19 states and in Canada.
Scientists have discovered that the source is a strain of a cold-loving fungus usually found in polar regions. They are not sure how the fungus kills bats. One theory is that the fungus causes discomfort. The bats began to become upset and partially wake up from hibenation. This activity causes them to burn precious stored body fat and die of starvation. Experts estimate that over 5.5 million bats across nine species have disappeared because of the disease. Wildlife experts fear that if the infection spreads to more bat populations in the Southeast and Midwest, endangered bat species, such as the Indiana bat and Virginia big-eared bat, may be in grave danger of extinction.
Why should Americans care about the loss of these creatures? In warm months, bat fly at night, eating up to their body weight in insects. They control the populations of insects that bite, eat crops, destroy forests, and spread disease. Because of this, the United States government is getting involved. It has heard announcements from bat experts and is taking seriously their pleas(请愿) for funding to study the disease. The possibility of what one lawmaker called "an ecological and economic disaster" is very real if the deadly disease spreads further.
8、What causes white-nose syndrome among the bats?
A. Ecological pollution. B. The lack of food.
C. The freezing climate. D. A cold-loving fungus.
9、What is the main idea of paragraph 2?
A. How the fungus possibly affects bats
B. Why the bats' hibernation is disturbed.
C. Where the experts discovered the disease.
D. What contributed to the concern of the experts.
10、What is the main concern about the extinction of the bat in the US?
A. The spread of the disease. B. The destruction of the forests.
C. The imbalance of the ecosystem. D. The decrease of the insect population.
11、What is the US government most likely to do in the future?
A. To introduce laws to protect bats.
B. To approve funding for bat disease research.
C. To declare the coming of an ecological disaster.
D. To appeal to people to stay away from infected bats
Should Elizabeth II be the last queen? And should police officers be banned from using guns? Pupils at Redden Court School, a state high school in London's eastern suburb, compete with interesting topics when they give up their lunch breaks for debate club.
The school is one of many public ones to have taken up debating in recent years. Last year the English-Speaking Union (ESU), Britain's main debating organization, began to provide free help to 100 schools with lots of poor pupils. It hopes to change the view that debating is for rich kids.
Advocates propose a range of benefits. Duncan Partridge of the ESU argues that the confidence and fluency debating inspires will help children in future university applications and job interviews. Teachers at Redden Court say it has improved pupils' ability to set out their arguments logically, in writing and in class, and they believe debating can be of wider use still.
Yet, despite these organisations' best efforts, success in debating competitions is not just becoming more concentrated in private schools, but in a few of them that take it most seriously. Some hire international debating superstars to tutor their pupils. In 2015 Eton College, one of Britain's grandest schools, opened a debating club that cost ￡18 million. In the past decade just two state schools have won the ESU's annual debating competition in England.
Joseph Spence, master of another top private school, says another problem is that "there is something quite white, middle class and male about the debating form." Some worry that school debating promotes skilful rhetoric(虚华辞藻) but not critical thinking.
To respond to such criticism, the ESU is designing a new debating format that encourages teams to shift their position in response to their opponent's arguments. It has also introduced a policy that from this year, at least 30% of its competition members must come from state schools. However, is affirmative(积极的) action a just response to continuing inequality?
12、Why did ESU aid 100 schools free of charge?
A. To involve students in debating clubs.
B. To promote debating for rich students.
C. To introduce debating to poor students.
D. To change a popular opinion on debating.
13、What can we learn from paragraph 4?
A. Eton College doesn't lay much emphasis on debating.
B. Private schools take the lead in debating competitions.
C. Some debating experts are invited to be the judges of the competitions.
D. The debating organizations only value the performance of private schools.
14、What's the deciding factor behind the gap between schools' debating performance?
A.Student ability. B. Political influence.
C. School preference. D. Economic inequality.
15、What's the writer's attitude toward ESU's efforts in the last paragraph?
A. Critical. B. Favorable. C.Hopeful. D. Unconcerned.
二、七选五
16、 If I could have your attention, please. I'd like to talk to you about young people's screen time. There is so much to look at: photographs, social media feeds, messages and emails; it is no wonder they are glued to their screens. ①_____
There have been many claims about the damage looking at screens does to our eyesight. ②_____ This is a particular concern for children and young people, who spend a higher percentage of time using electronic devices.
But a new study says time in front of computers and phones might not be as bad for young people as many people think. Research by the Oxford Internet Institute examined data from more than 17,000 teenagers in the UK, Ireland and the United States. ③_____ Professor Przybylski, director of research at the institute, said, "99.75% of a person's life satisfaction has nothing to do with their use of social media." The research found that family, friends and school life all had a greater impact on health.
④_____ The Oxford researchers are confident that their study is strong in its findings and that any relation between screen time and mental health is very small. Dr. Max Davie, officer for health improvement at the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, calls the study a "small first step", but he said there were other issues to explore, such as screen time's interference with other important activities like sleep, exercise and time with family or friends. ⑤_____
A. But is it good for them?
B. People are addicted to the screens and chatting on social media.
C. People's life satisfaction is closely related to their use of mobile phones.
D. So, does this mean young people can spend longer looking at social media?
E. Some people feared staring ata small bright box could make us short-sighted.
F. Perhaps, deciding the "right" amount of screen time has to be of personal judgment
G. Their study found most links between life satisfaction and social media use were "small".

34、阅读下列材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was hit on my back as I walked down the hall. I turned around angrily, only to discover a lovely cat. His name was Oscar and he was born at the shelter I was visiting. The volunteer let me know that the mother was abandoned by her owner. She and the rest of the litter(幼崽) had been adopted quickly, but Oscar remained.
I could tell he was just what we needed. We were just married, full of love and hope, but we were also facing a few unexpected trials. Just weeks after our wedding, my husband was injured in an accident at work, which not only broke his body but his spirit. Hours of physical treatment led to sleepless nights. I hoped that this little cat would cheer up my husband.
When I brought Oscar home, I asked my husband to shut his eyes and open his hands. I handed him the cat, who reached up and rubbed his paws (爪子) against my husband's face. It had been months since I saw my husband smile like this, and Oscar himself couldn't stop purring(发出呼噜声).
Years passed, and our sweet Oscar continued to bring us comfort. He had an ability to know if someone was having an emotional moment; he would always try to help.
One day, I received a phone call from my mother telling me that my father had cancer. I swore to do everything I could to help him. Feeling upset, I took a bath to try to collect my thoughts. Oscar reached up opened the closed door, and jumped directly into the bathtub with me. Hearing the loud noise, my husband ran into the bathroom to find Oscar all wet just inches from my face. That little guy was all heart.
Fortunately, my father beat cancer and recovered fully. Following his final treatment, he was given two weeks of rest at home. He asked if he and my mother could "babysit" Oscar for those weeks. We were more than happy to share.

⑦根据句中both the Congolese city of Goma(注意both,其后为:刚果戈马城)和空后the Rwandan city of Gisenyi(卢旺达城市吉塞尼),结合固定表达both...and(……和……都,不但……而且……),可知and符合题意,组成固定表达,表示(威胁)刚果戈马城和卢旺达城市吉塞尼。故答案为and。
⑧根据句中strong enough(足够强,副词enough修饰形容词或副词时,置于其后,相关搭配adj enough to do sth足够的……能做某事),结合空后by(被,应用被动语态be done结构)和所给feel(动词,感觉),可知to be felt(不定式结构to后加动词原形,be felt为被动语态,felt为feel过去分词)符合题意,表示尼拉贡戈火山前两次喷发都很强,住在附近的人都感觉到了。故答案为to be felt。
⑨根据句中even the sensitive monitoring stations... didn't notice clear warning of lava...(即使是敏感的监测站也没有注意到熔岩的明确预警信号),结合⑧和⑩题,可知副词However(然而;可是,可置于句首,常用逗号隔开,作状语,表示前后句意思转折)符合题意,表达:然而,在2021年5月22日火山喷发前,即使敏感的监测站也没有捕捉到熔岩地下运动的明确预警信号。故答案为However。
⑩根据notice后的宾语clear warning of lava(形容词clear明显的,清楚的,可修饰名词),结合所给sign(可作可数名词,迹象;信号;征兆,相关表达warning signs警示征兆/信号),可知signs(名词sign复数,表示不止一个征兆/信号)符合题意,clear warning signs of lava,表示明显的熔岩警示征兆。故答案为signs。

On the final day of Oscar's visit, my father decided to bake cookies for me and my husband to thank us for "lending" him our cat. I was so grateful since cookies were my favourite dessert. The moment we entered the house, the familiar smell of warm chocolate cookies hung heavily in the air. Father was engaged in placing them on the delicate silver plates one by one. "You are so sweet, Dad." I stepped forward, grabbing one plate and digging in. It was only when I was on my third cookie that I noticed an adorable detail. There was a paw print on each of the cookies.(84words)
"Did you add these paw prints on the cookies?" I asked my dad surprisingly. "What do you mean?" he leaned forward in wonder. So did my husband. For a split second, realizing what had happened, we three erupted into laughter. It was Oscar that had added his own touch as usual. That afternoon, I sat leisurely in the sofa, sipping tea and talking merrily with my father while Oscar nestled softly on my husband's chest. He shared his love and joy with everyone. Not only had he left paw prints on the cookies, but he also left paw prints on our hearts.(92words)
