Live with roommates? Have friends and family around you? Chances are that if you’re looking to live a more sustainable lifestyle, not everyone around you will be ready to jump on that bandwagon.
I experienced this when I started switching to a zero waste lifestyle five years ago, as I was living with my parents, and I continue to experience this with my husband, as he is not completely zero waste like me. I’ve learned a few things along the way though, which I hope you’ll find encouraging if you’re doing your best to figure out how you can make the change in a not-always-supportive household.
Zero waste was a radical lifestyle movement a few years back. I remember showing my parents a video of Bea Johnson, sharing how cool I thought it would be to buy groceries with jars, and have so little trash! A few days later, I came back with my first jars of zero waste groceries, and my dad commented on how silly it was for me to carry jars everywhere. It came off as a bit discouraging.
Yet as the months of reducing waste continued, I did what I could that was within my own reach. I had my own bedroom, so I worked on removing things I didn’t need. Since I had my own toiletries(洗漱用品), I was able to start personalising my routine to be more sustainable. I also offered to cook every so often, so I portioned out a bit of the cupboard for my own zero waste groceries. Perhaps your household won’t entirely make the switch, but you may have some control over your own personal spaces to make the changes you desire.
As you make your lifestyle changes, you may find yourself wanting to speak up for yourself if others comment on what you’re doing, which can turn itself into a whole household debate. If you have individuals who are not on board, your words probably won’t do much and can often leave you feeling more discouraged.
So here is my advice: Lead by action.
24、What do the underlined words “jump on that bandwagon” mean in the first paragraph?
A.Share an apartment with you. B.Join you in what you’re doing.
C.Transform your way of living. D.Help you to make the decision.
25、What was the attitude of the author’s father toward buying groceries with jars?
A.He disapproved of it. B.He was favorable to it.
C.He was tolerant of it. D.He didn’t care about it.
26、What can we infer about the author?
A.She is quite good at cooking. B.She respects others’ privacy.
C.She enjoys being a housewife. D.She is a determined person.
27、What is the text mainly about?
A.How to get on well with other family members.
B.How to have one’s own personal space at home.
C.How to live a zero waste lifestyle in a household.
D.How to control the budget when buying groceries.
    Amazing and perfectly beautiful, The Midnight Library is everything you’d expect from the genius storyteller, Matt Haig. I picked it up from our readers’ recommendations (we asked our readers to send in some of their favorite recent books) and I can see why it won Best Fiction of 2020 in the Good Reads Choice Awards.
    The story follows Nora Seed, a woman who is struggling and feels like nothing in her life has gone according to plan. While the initial chapters of the book are quite sad, Nora finds herself given a chance to start over in the Midnight Library, a magical place full of books of all the different paths her life could have taken. Nora is forced to stay in the library and try out different versions of her life until she finds the life she most wants to live.
    I loved the idea that no dream or fork in your road is insignificant, and that they all lead us to become different versions of ourselves. In one life, Nora is an Olympic swimmer. In another, she is a glaciologist living on a boat off the coast of Antarctica. The novel reveals in a beautiful way that the potential we all have within us is impossible to measure, and that we have the possibility to be happy in many different versions of life.
    It also discusses how dangerous it can be to live your life with regrets. The Midnight Library revealed to Nora that even if you make very different choices, you may uncover a deeper appreciation for your current home and the people in your life. It is your perspective that matters.
    I really loved the fantasy and magical realism in this novel, and I would love for this to be turned into a series where we get to explore The Midnight Library of other characters’ lives as well.
28、What can we know about the author of the text?
A.He should be an editor.
B.He is the friend of Matt Haig.
C.Magical realism books are his favorite.
D.He shares a similar experience with Nora.
29、What does The Midnight Library mainly discuss?
A.A magic library. B.The harm of regret.
C.The exploration of life. D.Ways to make correct choices.
30、Where can the text be found?
A.In a novel. B.In a magazine.
C.In a history book. D.In a biography.
31、What is the purpose of the text?
A.To thank readers who introduced the book.
B.To honour Matt Haig, the author of the book.
C.To share the author’s opinions on the book.
D.To publicize the book to people who are struggling.
No one can resist the temptation (诱惑) of snacks. But at the same time, you may be underestimating how many calories a snack contains. What would happen if you had a bag of crisps (炸薯片) a day? Eating an extra packet of crisps a day could lead to a weight gain of 6. 35 kg after a year, The Times reported.
People underestimate the number of calories in their snacks, with experts warning that eating a bag of crisps every day could lead to a stone of weight gain in a year. A survey of around 2,000 adults found that about three quarters underestimated the impact of what a small reduction could have. One in ten believed that cutting 200 calories a day would not affect weight. At the same time, many people didn’t seem to know exactly how many calories were in their snacks. When it came to snacks, people struggled, with 95 percent guessing that half a sharing bag of tortilla chips had 214 calories on average, almost half the true figure of 447.
Can’t we resist buying snacks? The food environment is to blame. Even though we all know snacking is bad for our health, we can’t help but fill our shopping carts with snacks. Don’t always blame yourself for poor self- control, and supermarket shelves also have to carry this “pot” half.
Hugo Harper, head of Nesta’s health team, said the pressure to resist high-calorie snacks should not be put on consumers and that our food environment needed to be changed, He said, “Our environment has a real impact on what we eat, from advertisements and supermarket promotions to what ‘s available in our local corner shops.”
Hugo added, “If we had fewer cues to snacks, or were pushed to buy fewer high calorie snacks, we should be able to see real change.” New rules coming into force next month will restrict promotions on foods high in fat, sugar and salt in big shops.
32、What does the author intend to do in paragraph 1?
A. List some reasons. B. Introduce the topic.
C. Put up an argument. D. Raise a question.
33、What can we know from the survey?
A. One in ten people cut 200 calories a day.
B. Many people knew how many snacks they ate.
C. No one knew the calories the snacks contained.
D. Most people lacked the awareness of snacks’ impact.
34、What may cause people to buy more snacks according to the text?
A. The food environment. B. Living conditions.
C. Consumption ability. D. Supermarket management.
35、Which of the following may be the best title for the text?
A. A packet of crisps contains many calories
B. People can resist the temptation of snacks
C. The harm of snacks is beyond your imagination
D. 2,000 adults got involved in a consumption survey

54、阅读下面材料，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。
Mo was waiting outside her class. She was feeling sick. She had two exams that day. Physics was first and she hated physics, it was her worst subject. Terry looked back at her from the front of the line, then looked away quickly. Mo thought she looked guilty. She didn’t have a problem with physics. She didn’t have a problem with anything! 
“Hi, Mo, it’s your favourite exam today!” said Nima as she arrived. Terry looked back again. “What’s wrong with her?” said Nima. “I thought you were friends.” “Yes, so did I,” said Mo. “But she looks absent-minded and acts strangely these days. She promised to help me revise for the physics exam, but then she ignored all my calls and texts!” said Mo angrily while going into the exam room.
Mo couldn’t answer question number five. She looked up and saw Terry sitting in the next row. Mo was surprised. Terry was holding her phone under the table and she was reading from it. Is that how Terry always got good grades? She felt really angry at Terry and thought about telling the teacher, but what would everyone else think of her? It wasn’t fair! Mo never cheated and she failed lots of exams. Terry had already put her phone away when Mo looked up again. She looked back at Mo and smiled sadly. “Stop writing and put your pens down” said Mr Reed as he started to collect the exam papers. Oh no, Mo hadn’t answered two of the questions. She was going to fail again!
The next exam was history. That was Mo’s favourite subject but she didn’t feel good. “It wasn’t fair!” she thought. “Terry was getting good grades by cheating all that time. And I thought we were friends!” Just then, Mr Reed walked past her table. “Mr Reed...”
Mo was sitting behind Terry again in the history exam that afternoon. Mo was feeling terrible. Why had she told Mr. Reed? But it was too late now. And anyway, Terry didn’t want to be her friend! Mr. Reed wanted her to look at him and nod if she saw that Terry was cheating in the exam.

17、答案：C
解析：W: I saw a really good video last night when I was taking care of the kids. My sister asked me to look after my two nieces for a couple of hours when she went to the doctor’s. They’re both nine years old and they’re twins. I was a bit tired but I know they love watching films, so on my way to the house, I went to the video shop and bought a Disney classic. I saw it myself 20 years ago when I was their age, so I was sure they’d enjoy it, and I was right. My nieces love dogs and as the film is about two dogs that fall in love, they sat in front of the TV for over an hour without moving! It’s a complicated love story because one of the dogs lives in the rich part of town and is very carefully looked after and has everything a dog could want, but the other is a street dog who lives on the poor side of town and has nothing.
So it’s a bit like Romeo and Juliet! But of course it’s a Disney film, so although there are some sad moments when we all cried, there’s a happy ending. Everybody who’s seen the film always remembers the scene when the two dogs are eating a plate of spaghetti which ends in a kiss!

32、答案：B
解析：写作意图题。由本文第一段的内容No one can resist the temptation(诱惑) of snacks. But at the same time, you may be underestimating how many calories a snack contains. What would happen if you had a bag of crisps(炸薯片) a day? Eating an extra packet of crisps a day could lead to a weight gain of 6.35 kg after a year, The Times reported.(没有人能抗拒零食的诱惑。但与此同时,你可能低估了一份零食所含的卡路里。如果你每天吃一包薯片会发生什么?据《泰晤士报》报道,每天多吃一包薯片,一年后体重会增加6.35公斤。)和第二段中的关键句A survey of around 2,000 adults found that about three quarters underestimated the impact of what a small reduction could have.(一项针对约2000名成年人的调查发现,约四分之三的人低估了轻微减少可能带来的影响。)可知第一段介绍了人们爱吃零食,但是低估了零食的热量,从而引出下文关于人们可能低估了零食所含的卡路里介绍,可知第一段引出文章主题。故选B。

解析：标题判断题。由本文第一段中的关键句But at the same time, you may be underestimating how many calories a snack contains.(但与此同时,你可能低估了一份零食所含的卡路里)。和第二自然段中的关键句People underestimate the number of calories in their snacks, with experts warning that eating a bag of crisps every day could lead to a stone of weight gain in a year.(人们低估了零食中的热量,专家警告说,每天吃一袋薯片可能会导致一年内体重增加一石。)可知,文章前两段主要介绍了人们低估了零食含有大量热量;第三、四自然段分析了我们为什么不能抵制零食;最后一段介绍了即将生效的针对零食的新规。因此可知,文章主要讲述了人们低估了零食的热量,以及零食带来的危害超出了人们的想象,所以C项“零食的危害超乎你的想象。”作为题目最合适,故选C。

53、答案：
Dear editor,
I’m writing to tell you something about the Tree-planting activity in our school. In order to enhance student’s awareness of environment protection, our school organized the activity themed “adding green and living a low-carbon life” on 12th March.
Early in the morning, carrying different tools as arranged in advance, we walked to the hill behind our school. Under the guidance of the teachers, we began to work，some digging holes, some putting seedling into the holes and filling the holes with earth, and some watering the seedlings. We were so proud to make a small difference to our planet that we made up our minds to contribute to low-carbon lifestyle through more green actions.
Yours,
Li Hua
54、答案：
Para 1:
She was working on the last question when she saw that Terry had her phone under the table. Though feeling uneasy and restless, she looked at Mr. Reed and nodded. With her eyes glued to the phone, it wasn't until the teacher patted on her back that Terry noticed Mr. Reed. Immediately, Terry was asked to leave. Terry rushed out of the class, crying all the way. Instead of feeling relaxed, Mo had ants in her pants. She felt guilty for telling Mr. Reed about it, which had resulted in Terry's not finishing her exam.
Para 2:
Mo was leaving school when she heard footsteps behind her. It was Terry who had just come out of the teacher's office. Feeling embarrassed, Mo wanted to run away. Nevertheless, Terry stopped her and said, "Mo, I'm sorry I haven't kept my promise to help you review, but my father has been badly ill for two weeks. Today he had a significant operation. I was so worried about him that I kept on reading the texts on the phone sent by my mother to get the latest news about him, so Mr. Reed forgave me. Can you forgive me?" "Of course! Let's go to the hospital to see your father." Mo couldn't wait to reply.
