A six-year-old longing to keep a unicorn（独角兽）in her backyard figured she’d get the hard part out of the way first.
Last November, Madeline wrote a letter to the Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control with a straightforward request. “Dear LA County, I would like your approval if I can have a unicorn in my backyard if I can find one. Please send me a letter in response.”
Director Mayeda replied two weeks later. The department does in fact license unicorns, she said, under certain conditions. Those include polishing the unicorn’s horn at least once a month with a soft cloth, feeding it watermelon at least once a week, covering it with only nontoxic (无毒的) and biodegradable sparkles and giving it regular access to sunlight, moonbeams and rainbows. And, because unicorns are indeed very rare to find, the department is also giving Madeline a toy unicorn to keep her company during her search, as a token of appreciation.
“It is always rewarding to hear from young people who thoughtfully consider the requirements of providing a loving home for animals,” Mayeda wrote in the letter. “I like your sense of responsible pet ownership to seek permission in advance to keep a unicorn in Los Angeles County.”
Mayeda told the Washington Post that this is the first time the department has received a request for a license for a unicorn―or any mythical (神话的) creature. They were impressed with the first-grader for wanting to ask permission in the first place, and doing her research to work out how to go about that. She and her colleagues deal with a lot of “life-and-death” issues on the job, whether that’s seeing cases of animal abuse or animals hurting people or making decisions about having to put down dangerous or sick animals. So Madeline’s letter has considerably brightened their spirits, and she is due to visit the department this week to discuss her unicorn license application. Safe to say, she’s in for a magical surprise.
24.Why did Madeline write the letter?
A. To apply to visit a unicorn.
B. To learn to provide animal care.
C. To ask permission to keep a pet.
D. To figure out how to find a unicorn.
25.What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. Her application was disapproved.
B. Requirements should be met for the license.
C. She was presented with a live unicorn.
D. Guidance was given for her search.
26.Which of the following best describes Mayeda?
A. Imaginative.
B. Sensitive.
C. Flexible.
D. Convincing.
27.Why does the department think the letter “has brightened their spirits”?
A. Because it is the first application letter for a pet.
B. Because animal protection is a life-and-death issue.
C. Because they are worn out with their daily work.
D. Because they are touched with the girl’s deeds.
C
It’s called the Bank of Happiness, but it has nothing to do with money. Founded a year ago in Estonia’s capital Tallinn, it’s a forum(论坛) in which more than 2,000 members from Estonia and other countries connect to offer or receive services free of charge.
The site carries more than 500 ads in English, German and Estonian from people offering or seeking all kinds of things, including teaching and tips on cooking. The website is also translated into French and Spanish.
Founder Airi Kivi says the goal is to make people think and act with their hearts. “After the worldwide outbreak of the pandemic, I thought, ‘Wow, our bank is perfect for the crisis and a lot of people are unemployed and they can use it to harvest what they need.’”
So how does it work? It’s simple: You sign up using your real name and post what you are offering or what your need is, as long as it doesn’t involve money or products.
Masseuse(女按摩师) Terge Reintem says she signed up when she was unemployed because she needed to improve her skills by learning from others. But she stayed on even after finding a new job because she says it feels good to volunteer. “If I discover a new technique, I want my bank customers to first experience it,” Reintem says, adding they are often nicer than the paying ones.
Member Veronika Davel says she infringed the rules with her first request when she asked for a product: a computer. But she did it unknowingly. Later, she began offering services of her own on the bank’s website. “The main thing I really could offer was English,” Davel explains. “There was a young girl who needed to have better English for her job and I gave her a hand.”
The site has many more offers of help than requests for it. That’s as it should be, Kivi says, adding that the bigger reward comes from giving.
28. How can the Bank of Happiness benefit its members?
A. They can help each other at no cost.
B. They can place ads for their products.
C. They can travel to many countries for free.
D. They can read much news about happiness.
29. What does the underlined word mean in paragraph 6?
A. obeyed.
B. broke.
C. made.
D. bent.
30. Why does Reintem keep serving the bank?
A. To improve her skills.
B. To win more customers.
C. To enjoy the helpfulness.
D. To learn new techniques.
31. How does the writer introduce the bank?
A. By using specific data.
B. By giving examples.
C. By referring to common knowledge.
D. By using comparison and contrast.
D
The term “Metaverse” is the latest buzzword (流行语) to capture the tech industry’s imagination — so much so that one of the best-known internet platforms is rebranding to signal it’s embrace of the futuristic idea.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s announcement that he’s changing his company’s name to Meta Platforms Inc. might be the biggest thing to happen to the metaverse since science fiction writer Neal Stephenson coined the term for his 1992 novel “Snow Crash”. But Zuckerberg and his team are hardly the only tech visionaries with ideas on how the metaverse, which will employ a mix of virtual reality and other technologies, should take shape.
What is the metaverse? Zuckerberg has described it as a “virtual environment” you can go inside of — instead of just looking at on a screen. Essentially, it’s a world of endless, interconnected virtual communities where people can meet, work and play, using virtual reality headsets and glasses, smartphone or other devices. The metaverse also could be a game-changer for the work-from-home shift amid the coronavirus pandemic. Instead of seeing co-workers on a video call, employees could join them in a virtual office.
Zuckerberg’s embrace of the metaverse in some ways goes against a central tenet (信条) of its biggest enthusiasts. They envision the metaverse as online culture’s liberation from tech platforms like Facebook that assumed ownership of people’s accounts, photos, posts and traded off what they collected from that data. “We want to be able to move around the internet with ease, but we also want to be able to move around the Internet in a way we’re not tracked and monitored,” said Steve Jang, who focuses on cryptocurrency (数字货币) technology. There is a growing concern about Facebook trying to lead the way into a virtual world that could require even more personal data and offer greater potential for abuse and misinformation when it hasn’t fixed those problems in its current platforms.
32. Why is Zuckerberg changing the name of his company?
A. Because he plans to quit his present business.
B. Because he has founded the metaverse.
C. Because he will engage in the metaverse.
D. Because he wants to draw public attention.
33. What can be inferred about the central belief of Metaverse fans?
A. Users should be responsible for their personal data.
B. Cryptocurrency technology should be monitored.
C. Tech platforms should possess users’ data.
D. The Metaverse should be tracked.
34. What can people do in the Metaverse?
A. Do everything in the real world.
B. Have meetings in the virtual office.
C. Defeat the pandemic.
D. See co-workers on a video-call.
35. What do some people think of Zuckerberg’ s decision?
A. Facebook will gain people’s trust.
B. Facebook will make the internet a better world.
C. Facebook may not abuse information.
D. Facebook may not play a good leading role.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中两项为多余选项。
Separation, money troubles, and transitional (过渡的) adjustments are all stressful events to the members of a family. Learning effective skills is key to solving the disagreements.
Schedule a time to talk as a group. When working together, you are more likely to solve family differences. 36 . Then, once tempers are cooled, everyone needs to plan to come together and think out a solution to the problem .
Focus on the issue at hand. When disagreements occur, people tend to bring up any and every unresolved issue they have ever faced with the other parties. This blurs (使模糊) the point of the discussion. Try to uncover what is important about the current problem. 37 .
Have everyone state what they truly mean. Direct communication is essential to effective conflict resolution. 38 . Such “I” statements allow everyone to express themselves while they show respect for others’ listening.
39 . Let another know you recognize, value, and accept his thoughts, opinions, or beliefs. Of course, your own opinions may differ greatly, but using validation (确认) demonstrates that you see the other as a human, worthy of respect. Validate your family members by saying something like “ I’m really glad that you feel comfortable enough to share this with me ” or “ I appreciate your willingness to work towards a solution ”.
Decide on a solution together. Once everyone has shared their needs, wants, and concerns, consider all the suggestions that each party has provided and look for a middle ground. 40 . If necessary, develop a contract or written agreement .

Be ware of those who use the truth to deceive(欺骗). When someone tells you something that is
41 , but leaves out important information that should be 42 , he can create a false impression.
For example, someone might say, “I just 43 a hundred dollars on the lottery. It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and 44 it in for one hundred dollars!”
This guy is a winner, 45 ? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought two hundred

Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It’s 58 the law to make false claims so they try to mislead you with the 59 . An ad might boast, “Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples. ” It 60 to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation.
This kind of deception happens too often. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.
