B
It all started with a post on social media. Returning home from the grocery store, then 25-year-old Simone Policano felt compelled to help the elderly in her neighbourhood to practise safer social distancing during the Covid-19 pandemic. With this in mind, she reached out to her friends via the social media, inquiring about existing volunteer opportunities in the state of New York. Unexpectedly, many responded to her post, expressing their interest to volunteer as well. As a result of that outreach, one of her friends, Liam Elkind joined Policano. They decided to start an initiative called Invisible Hands Deliver.
Just two days after conceiving(想出)the idea, Policano and Elkind had a website up and running. This site allowed the elderly and other at-risk individuals to make requests for groceries and prescription medicines to be delivered to them. Volunteers left the bags of groceries outside the doors. The webpage also included a call for volunteers, which gained more than 2,000 sign-ups within the first five days.
As the pandemic began to take its toll on New York in March 2020, Invisible Hands Deliver witnessed a massive outpouring of support from like-minded individuals in the community. Besides volunteering to deliver groceries for free, New Yorkers also reached out to translate the Invisible Hands flyers into over a dozen languages, enabling the organisation to reach out to more members of the community.
Following its success in New York and New Jersey, the organisation has expanded its operations to Philadelphia and there are plans to expand to other areas of the United States. Their acts of kindness have also inspired similar networks to sprout up worldwide. Invisible Hands Deliver is also supported by other organizations.
Helmed by a team of college students and recent graduates, Invisible Hands Deliver has shown that one is never too young to make a difference and give back to the community. In a time when the pandemic has forced people apart, the young are in a prime position to take advantage of technology and bridge the gap, bringing communities together.
4. Why did Simone Policano setup “Invisible Hands Deliver”?
A. To practice outreach on the social media.
B. To bring volunteers of the same interest together.
C. To help the elderly with their daily chores contactlessly.
D. To sell groceries and prescription medicines to the lonely elderly.
5. What does the underlined phrase “take its toll” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Cause great damage. B. Reduce the impact.
C. Fill a huge gap. D. Recover slowly.
6. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Invisible Hands Deliver has drawn wide attention.
B. People responded to Simon’s post in actively at the beginning.
C. Invisible Hands Deliver has existed in many areas of the United States.
D. Young people pull the elderly together when the pandemic pulls them apart.
7. What does the author want to convey through the passage?
A. Great minds think alike. B. All the people gather the fire.
C. Great things never come easy. D. Kill two birds with one stone.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. A 7. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了25岁的Policano发起了Invisible Hands Deliver组织，与志愿者一起帮助老年人和其他处境危险的个人购买食品和处方药等，使人们在疫情期间与他人得以保持安全距离。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Unexpectedly, many responded to her post, expressing their interest to volunteer as well. As a result of that outreach, one of her friends, Liam Elkind joined Policano. They decided to start an initiative called Invisible Hands Deliver.(出乎意料的是，许多人回复了她的帖子，表达了他们对志愿者的兴趣。作为这次拓展的结果，她的一个朋友，Liam Elkind加入了Policano。他们决定发起一项名为Invisible Hands Deliver的组织。)”可推知，Simone Policano建立Invisible Hands Deliver的目的是把志同道合的志愿者聚集在一起。故选B。
【5题详解】

C
Many of the psychological benefits of outdoor play are already well established. Our brains evolved in natural landscapes, and our perceptual(感知的)systems are particularly well suited to wild outdoor spaces.
This means that natural scenes provide the perfect level of stimulation, which is thought to help recharge the brain when it is tired and easily distractible. Supporting this theory, one study found that children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) were better able to concentrate following a 20-minute walk in the park, compared to a 20-minute walk on the streets of a well-kept urban area. Being exposed to grass and trees seemed to have had a beneficial effect on their minds. The authors recommended using such “doses(剂量)of nature” as a safe and accessible way of supporting children with ADHD, alongside other tools.
Besides these restorative effects, outdoor play can offer valuable learning experiences. For example, playing with mud or sand can help children develop the way their senses and movement interact, which allows the child to gradually understand his or her body signals.
Such activities — away from the house or classroom — may also help children to find ways to cope with emotions that maybe hard to explore in other environments. So-called “sand tray therapy”, which involves using sand and clay to express one’s thoughts and feelings, is an accepted form of counselling for children who are struggling to verbalise their emotional state.
When it comes to the child’s physical health, the most obvious advantage of outdoor play maybe the exercise A child may find it easier to buildup strength and endurance in a large open space resulting in a reduced risk of overweight, according to one study led by Elizabeth Gershoff, professor of human development and family sciences at the University of Texas at Austin, US.
The latest findings, however, suggest there could be a host of other advantages to playing in natural environments — and the secret maybe alive in the mud itself.
8. What’s the function of the first paragraph?
A. To present the topic. B. To display brain landscapes.
C. To prove the well-established benefits. D. To introduce the perceptual systems.
9. How does the study show that natural scenes provide the perfect level of stimulation?
A. By recording learning experiences. B. By comparing walking in different settings.
C. By observing different activities. D. By exposing children to grass and trees.
10. What’s the advantage of sand tray therapy?
A. Children can speak out their inner thoughts.
B. Children can develop their senses and movements.
C. Children can express their thoughts by applying sand.
D. Children can cope with their emotions in the classroom.
11. What does the author mean by saying “the secret maybe alive in the mud itself’?
A. Playing outdoors brings unexpected benefits.
B. Playing in the mud is the best outdoor exercise.
C. Playing outdoors can cure children with ADHD.
D. Playing in the mud can reduce the risk of overweight.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了户外运动的好处。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Many of the psychological benefits of outdoor play are already well established. Our brains evolved in natural landscapes, and our perceptual(感知的)systems are particularly well suited to wild outdoor spaces.(户外运动的许多心理益处已经确立。我们的大脑是在自然环境中进化而来的，我们的感知系统特别适合野外的环境)”可推知，第一段主要为了显示出户外运动公认的好处。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Supporting this theory, one study found that children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) were better able to concentrate following a 20-minute walk in the park, compared to a 20-minute walk on the streets of a well-kept urban area. Being exposed to grass and trees seemed to have had a beneficial effect on their minds. (为了支持这一理论，一项研究发现，患有注意力缺陷多动障碍的儿童，在公园散步20分钟后要比在一个保持良好的城市地区的街道上散步能够更好地集中注意力。暴露在草地和树木中似乎对他们的思想有益。)”可知，作者通过比较不同环境下的行走，来表明自然景色能够提供完美的刺激，故选B。

【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Such activities — away from the house or classroom — may also help children to find ways to cope with emotions that maybe hard to explore in other environments. So-called “sand tray therapy”, which involves using sand and clay to express one’s thoughts and feelings, is an accepted form of counselling for children who are struggling to verbal is e their emotional state.(所谓的“沙盘疗法”，是用沙子和粘土来表达一个人的想法和感受，这是一种辅导那些难以说出自己情绪状态的孩子的可接受的形式。)”可知，沙盘疗法的好处是孩子能用沙子来表达自己的想法，故选C。
【11题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段“The latest findings, however, suggest there could be a host of other advantages to playing in natural environments — and the secret maybe alive in the mud itself.(然而，最新的研究结果表明，在自然环境中游戏可能还有其他许多优势——秘密可能存在于泥浆中。)”可知，最新的研究结果表明，在自然环境中游戏可能还有其他许多优势，破折号是用来解释说明前文的，由此可推知，作者说“秘密可能存在于泥浆中”这句话是在说户外运动会带来意想不到的好处。故选A。


D
Recycling is a great way of doing your bit for the environment and helping to protect the earth’s precious resources. However, a new study has revealed that our desire to be sustainable maybe doing more harm than good. According to waste company Biffa, this is because of “wish-cycling” — assuming that items such as disposable coffee cup sand pizza boxes will be recycled if put in the recycling bin. In fact, pollution from those items or other non-recyclables can result in recyclable items that have been put in the correct bin going to landfill. David Heaton, a business director at Biffa, said: “Pollution happens when items are disposed of in the wrong bins or haven’t been cleaned before being recycled.”
Experts at Biffa analyzed the amounts of non-target and non-recyclable materials that entered UK material recycling facilities between 2016 and 2020. It was found that, in 2016, the average pollution rate of recycling waste was 13.4 percent, rising over four years to 17 percent by the end of 2020. This shows that, even as people are becoming more eco-conscious, wish-cycling is increasing both in households and businesses.
The Biffa experts say that one of the best ways to prevent pollution of recycling is to clean recyclable waste before putting it in the bin. They suggest cutting off the top of old pizza boxes and only recycling that part to avoid pollution from the grease (油脂). Check the on-packaging recycling label to check it can actually be recycled When it comes to plastics, Biffa recommends checking the resin code, the number in the plastic triangle, to know whether it should go in the recycling bin. In general, resin codes 1, 2, 4 and 5 are recyclable, while 3, 6 and 7 are not. Larger items, like electronics, furniture and batteries, can also be recycled but often can not go in household recycling bins as they need specialist separating. These will need to be taken to recycling centers or sustainable waste management companies.
“It’s vital as a nation that we get better at effective ‘pre-cycling’— sorting waste correctly before collection to reduce pollution rates,” added Mr. Heaton.
12. What’s the truth of “wish-cycling” according to the first paragraph?
A. The desire to lead a sustainable life.
B. The good intention to help recycling.
C. The habit of throwing items that end up in landfills.
D. The practice of recycling items that can not be recycled.
13. What has experts at Biffa concluded after their analysis?
A. People are becoming more eco-conscious.
B. Wish-cycling is on the rise in recent years.
C. Pollution happens less frequently in recycling facilities.
D. People are used to cleaning recyclable waste before putting it in the bin.
14. Which of the following is a proper way of recycling?
A. Dispose of electronics together with household waste.
B. Skip the step of checking the on-packaging recycling label.
C. Check the resin code of plastics to see whether it is recyclable or not.
D. Cutoff the top of old pizza box and throw the rest to the recycling bin.
15. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Recycling: a Big Project B. Wish-cycling: a New Trend
C. Wish-cycling: a Growing Concern D. Pre-cycling: an Effective Method
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. C 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了“希望循环”所带来的问题，同时文章就如何正确回收提出建议。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“However, a new study has revealed that our desire to be sustainable maybe doing more harm than good.(然而，一项新的研究表明，我们对可持续发展的渴望可能弊大于利)”和“this is because of “wish-cycling” — assuming that items such as disposable coffee cup sand pizza boxes will be recycled if put in the recycling bin. (这是因为“希望循环”——认为一次性咖啡杯和比萨饼盒等物品如果放入回收箱就会被回收)”可知，“希望循环”的真相是人们认为把垃圾扔进回收箱就会被回收。由此可推知，这是一种帮助回收利用的好意。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“This shows that, even as people are becoming more eco-conscious, wish-cycling is increasing both in households and businesses.(这表明，尽管人们越来越注重环保，但在家庭和企业中，“希望循环”的数量都在增加)”可知，近年来，“希望循环”的数量正在不断增加。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“When it comes to plastics, Biffa recommends checking the resin code, the number in the plastic triangle, to know whether it should go in the recycling bin. (当谈到塑料时，Biffa建议检查树脂代码，即塑料三角形中的数字，以了解它是否应该放入回收箱)”可知，检查塑料的树脂代码，看看它是否可回收，这是合适的回收方法，故选C。
15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“However, a new study has revealed that our desire to be sustainable maybe doing more harm than good. According to waste company Biffa, this is because of “wish-cycling” — assuming that items such as disposable coffee cup sand pizza boxes will be recycled if put in the recycling bin. In fact, pollution from those items or other non-recyclables can result in recyclable items that have been put in the correct bin going to landfill. (然而，一项新的研究表明，我们对可持续发展的渴望可能弊大于利。据废品处理公司 Biffa 称，这是因为“希望循环”——假设一次性咖啡杯和比萨饼盒等物品如果放入回收箱就会被回收利用。事实上，来自这些物品或其他不可回收物品的污染会导致已经放入正确垃圾箱的可回收物品被送往垃圾填埋场)”可知，文章主要讲述了“希望回收”所带来的问题，同时文章就如何正确回收提出建议，由此可推知，C项“希望循环：一个日益关注的问题”适合做文章标题。故选C。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分12.5分)
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。选项中有两项为多余选项。
How to accept change in life and embrace it positively
Change is the only constant in life. ____16____ Because whether we want it or not, change is inevitable. It is “change” that makes our life move forward. It’s “change” that makes life exciting and worth living. Let’s see how to stay strong when we face changes in life.
Accept the situation
Changes happen expectedly and unexpectedly. ____17____ But there can be changes that happen so suddenly that you might have to experience painful days and have a tough time coping with them. Give yourself sometime to come to terms with it. You may have to go through a mourning period where you have to experience all kinds of emotions. Let the emotions come out and make space for them. It’s normal to feel sad and a sense of loss when you think about your old life. Seek support and if possible, take a few days off to find your strength. It’s important to learn to deal with the transition phase before you fully start living the new reality.
Embrace the unknown
Most of us are afraid of the unknown and therefore are resistant to change. ____18____ Even if it is for good, we hesitate to accept change because human beings love structure and routine. But I have often experienced in my life that the “unknown” I feared so much was not that scary at all, once I went through it. And that my worries were something that my mind made up. Truth be told, most of the things I worried about didn’t happen anyway. If we are not willing to embrace the unknown, we may miss out on lots of good things that life has kept in store for us.
____19____
One of the reasons change is difficult to accept is because of the range of emotions we feel when we confront change. ____20____ Acknowledge your fears, but stop yourself from being tunnel-visioned. Our mind has away of bringing up possible scenarios and fear them. But I have learned over the years that most of the things we fear don’t happen and usually, something good comes from change. I recently learned how to embrace emotions from one of my spiritual teachers. She would say, “When you feel emotions, give them a name and acknowledge that they have come to ‘visit’.”
A. Acknowledge your fears.
B. Look at how far you have come.
C. The sooner we learn to make peace with this fact, the better.
D. We fear the unknown because anything can happen to us there.
E. Expected or planned changes can buy us sometime for preparation.
F. It’s important to embrace your feelings and accept that they are there.
G. People who have experienced the loss of loved ones often talk about how that experience changed them.
【答案】16. C 17. E 18. D 19. A 20. F
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何接受生活中的改变并积极地拥抱它。
【16题详解】
上文“Change is the only constant in life. (改变是生活中唯一不变的。)”指出改变是生活中唯一不变的这一事实，下文“Because whether we want it or not, change is inevitable. (因为不管我们愿不愿意，改变都是不可避免的。)”中的because可知，空处应该和下文是因果关系，C项“我们越早学会接受这个事实越好。”符合，即因为不管我们愿不愿意，改变都是不可避免的，所以我们要越早学会接受这个事实越好，“this fact”代指上文，故选C。
【17题详解】
下文“But there can be changes that happen so suddenly that you might have to experience painful days and have a tough time coping with them. (但是有些变化可能发生得太突然，以至于你不得不经历痛苦的日子，并且很难应对它们)”中的But可知，空处和下文是转折关，下文指出有些变化发生得太突然，以至于没有准备，E项“预期或计划的变化可以为我们争取一些时间来准备。”指出预期的变化能为我们争取时间准备，和下文构成转折关系，选项中的“Expected or planned changes”和下文中的“changes that happen so suddenly”分别呼应上文“expectedly”和“unexpectedly”，故选E。
【18题详解】
上文“Most of us are afraid of the unknown and therefore are resistant to change. (我们大多数人害怕未知，因此抵制改变。)”指出大多数人害怕未知，空处承接上文，指出害怕未知的原因，D项“我们害怕未知，因为在那里任何事情都可能发生在我们身上。”符合，下文“Even if it is for good, we hesitate to accept change because human beings love structure and routine (即使改变是好的，我们也不愿意接受，因为人类喜欢结构和常规)”进一步解释了人们害怕未知不愿改变的原因，故选D。
【19题详解】
由下文“Acknowledge your fears, but stop yourself from being tunnel-visioned. Our mind has away of bringing up possible scenarios and fear them. (承认你的恐惧，但不要让自己看得太狭隘。我们的头脑已经远离了提出可能的情况和恐惧他们。)”可知，本段告诉我们要承认自己的恐惧，A项“承认你的恐惧。”适合做本段标题，故选A。
【20题详解】
上文“One of the reasons change is difficult to accept is because of the range of emotions we feel when we confront change. ( 改变之所以难以接受，原因之一是当我们面对改变时所感受到的各种情绪。)”指出改变难以接受的原因是我们面对改变时有各种情绪，空处应该承接上文，告诉我们对此该如何做，F项“接受你的感受并接受它们的存在是很重要的。”符合，“your feelings”和上文“emotions”相呼应，故选F。

47. 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。
Many years ago, when I was a young man in my twenties, I worked as a salesman for a St. Louis piano company. Every time we would advertise in Southeast Missouri, we would receive a reply on a postcard which said, “Please bring me a new piano for my little granddaughter. I can pay $10 a month with my egg money.” The old lady scrawled on and on and on that postcard until she filled it up.
Of course, we could not sell a new piano for $10 a month. No finance company would carry a contract with payments that small, so we ignored her postcards.
One day, however, I happened to be in that area calling on other replies, and out of curiosity I decided to look the old lady up: The old lady lived in a small and dirty house in the middle of a cotton field. There were chickens in the house. Obviously, the old lady could not have qualified to purchase anything on credit. Her little granddaughter was about 10, barefoot. I explained to the old lady that we could not sell a new piano for $10 a month. However, she still sent us the same postcard every six weeks.
A couple of years later, I owned my own piano company, and when I advertised in that area, the postcards started coming to me. For months, I ignored them.
But then, one day, despite knowing that I was about to make a terrible business decision, I delivered the piano to the old lady and told her I would carry the contract myself at $10 a month with no interest, and that would mean 52 payments. I took the new piano in the house and placed it where I thought the roof would be least likely to rain on it. It old her and the little girl to try to keep the chickens off of it, and I left — sure I had just thrown away a new piano.
But the payments came in, all 52 of them as agreed — sometimes with coins taped to a 3×5inch card in the envelope. It was incredible!
So, I put the incident out of my mind for 20 years.

【答案】 Then one day, as I was sitting at the bar having an after-dinner drink, I heard the most beautiful piano music behind me. Looking around, I saw a lovely young woman playing a very nice grand piano. Stunned by her great performance, I moved to a table beside her. She stopped and smiled at me politely, “Aren’t you the man who sent my grandma a piano a long time ago?” It didn’t ring a bell, so she started to explain. And I suddenly remembered. My goodness, it was her, the little barefoot girl. I wanted to know more about the girl.
She told me her name was Elise and since her grandmother couldn’t afford to pay for lessons, she had learned to play by listening to the radio. After practicing hard, she could play many songs. Then, she was admitted to a music school where she was offered a scholarship. She expressed her deep gratitude to me. She said, “ If you hadn’t given me this piano, I wouldn’t be where I am right now.” I felt proud of her and also told that it was her grandma’s persistence and love that made her achieve her dream.
