In 2014, Mahoney performed an act of kindness as part of a Facebook challenge. She picked a 79-year-old senior named Wagner, who regularly gave back to the community. Mahoney wanted to know Wagner better, so they spent a day together, picking up groceries and getting their nails done. “It was the first time in years that someone had made a day about her,” says Mahoney.

Their shared experience got Mahoney thinking. How many other seniors might benefit from dedicated attention? She came up with a plan: find local seniors with long-time dreams and work to fulfill their wishes. She named the new charity: We Are Young, or WAY for short.

Seniors can nominate ( 提 名) themselves or be nominated by someone else; wishes are then assessed by a community committee that looks at factors such as age-related physical barriers, social isolation and financial need.

Melanie nominated her husband, 78-year-old Victor, to go rock hounding, a hobby he’d given up when it became too physically difficult to access the bay where he hunted for geodes ( 晶洞). The team at WAY hired a boat for him and his son so they could reach the bay and search out geodes on the beach. “Now, Victor has regained his self-confidence and is willing to take on new challenges. We want to show that anything is possible with the support of others,” says Mahoney.

Up to now, WAY has delivered on 41 dreams, ranging from a helicopter trip over a childhood blueberry-picking spot to travelling to Toronto to watch a Blue Jays game. While her charity operates only in Nova Scotia, Mahoney has her own dream. Each WAY wish is recorded on video, and she wants people watching to be inspired to fulfill a wish for a senior in their own community. “We want to create a national movement that shifts how we as a society view, value and support seniors,” says Mahoney. “That is the impact we’re trying to create.”

4. Why did Mahoney set up WAY?

A. To complete a Facebook challenge.

B. To give back to local communities.

C. To do daily chores for the elderly.

D. To help seniors realize their goals.

5. How has WAY affected Victor?

A. He has made more friends.

B. He has started a new hobby.

C. He has become high-spirited.

D. He has regained his son’s support.

6. What does Mahoney intend to do by recording videos?

A. Rise to fame and fortune overnight.

B. Keep memories alive for the elderly.

C. Positively change our attitude towards the elderly.

D. Improve interpersonal relationship in the community.

7. What is the text mainly about?

A. Lifelong dreams.

B. A charity for seniors.

C. Problems seniors meet.

D. An unforgettable experience.

By 2050, 68% of the global population will live in cities. That’s 2.5 billion more people than today. In Europe, three out of four of us already live in urban areas, and the consequences of that are becoming clear. Researchers estimate that nine million people die every year as a direct result of air pollution. As our cities grow and more people move into already crowded spaces, what do we need to do to transform our urban areas into healthy places to live? An increasing body of research tells us that we should be letting nature back in.

Green spaces in cities mitigate the effects of pollution and can reduce a phenomenon known as the urban heat island effect, which refers to heat trapped in built-up areas. The effect appears in towns and cities where the heat generated by people, transport and industry is trapped in the narrow roads and concrete structures, unable to escape to the atmosphere. This can bring the temperature in urban areas  up  3-4°C  higher  than  the  surrounding  countryside,  and  with  that  comes  a  severe  cycle. Increased temperatures in summer lead to an increased demand for cooling. This expands our energy consumption,  which  in  turn  build  up  fossil  fuel  consumption,  increasing  pollutants  in  the  air and harmful smog on our streets.

Planning cities to include green spaces wherever possible is the first step in making our urban areas healthier. For example, adding a layer of vegetation to rooftops and creating green roofs has proven to reduce the urban heat island effect. Trees in our streets also play their part, and a variety of tree species can have a profound effect.

Simply  having  access  to  green  spaces  in  cities  can  do  wonders  for  our  stress  levels  and concentration  at  work.  “People  need  to  interact  with  nature  whenever  the  opportunity  arises. Something as simple as a five-to-ten-minute break during the workday can improve well-being and boost productivity.” Cecil, an expert studying nature in cities says.

8. How does the author bring in the topic in paragraph 1?

A. By presenting facts.                               B. By listing examples.

C. By comparing numbers.                         D. By questioning an estimate.

9. What does the underlined word “mitigate” mean in paragraph 2?

A. Overcome.             B. Change.               C. Ease.                        D. Shift.

10. What might be a consequence of the urban heat island effect?

A. Lower temperature.                                B. Energy regeneration.

C. Fuel shortage.                                        D. Air pollution.

11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. How to Let Nature Back In

B. Why We Need Green Spaces in Cities

C. Heat Effect: An Unavoidable Urban Trouble

D. Green Roofs: Tiny Urban Forests

D

For much of human history, ethical (道德的)  behavior has been guided by the Golden Rule: do to others as you would have them do to you. But the rule is imperfect. What you want in a given situation may not be what another person desires at all.

I  n the medical field, making or influencing choices for others can make all the difference. Such choices impact people’s quality of life and even their chances of survival. As health care becomes more individualized, the time seems right for a new ethical guideline – the “platinum (白金) rule” proposed by professor Harvey Max Chochinov: do to others as they would want done to themselves.

Chochinov describes this principle in his essay published last year. He begins with a story about a health crisis affecting his sister Ellen, who was severely disabled. The care doctor, after seeing her twisted (扭曲的) body, was weighing whether to insert a breathing tube when he asked Chochinov a strange question: Did Ellen read magazines? “The question was frightening. ” Chochinov writes, “this was not an attempt to get to know Ellen … but rather a way to decide if hers was a life worth saving. ” Ellen read widely and enjoyed many simple pleasures of life, but the gap between her life as a person who uses a wheelchair and the doctor’s sense of what he would want in her situation was too vast to be bridged by the Golden Rule. “That’s when judging from where you stand what another might need or want begins to break down,” Chochinov explained.

Time is a limited resource in the health-care system, and there’s no denying that getting to know a patient as an individual means investing additional minutes or hours. Still, Chochinov believes such investment is cost-effective. There are benefits for doctors as well. “When they emotionally connect to their patients, they do a better job.”

In certain cases, doctors may find it hard to apply the platinum rule. But there is value in the effort: at the very least, their trying to work through it will ensure that they have sufficient modesty about the wisdom of their choices.

12. Why is the platinum rule introduced to the medical field?

A. To strengthen ethical behavior in treatment.

B. To help doctors acquire accurate information.

C. To increase chances of survival for patients.

D. To make person-centered care accessible to patients.

13. What can we learn from Ellen’s story?

A. A health crisis caused her disability.

B. The doctor was curious about her hobby.

C. The doctor gave little thought to her needs.

D. Her brother sang high praises for the treatment.

14. Which statement might Chochinov agree with?

A. Health care system needs investing.

B. Time put into knowing a patient is rewarding.

C. Trust between doctors and patients is important.

D. Emotional connection to patients brings job burnout.

15. What is the author’s attitude towards the platinum rule?

A. Objective.             B. Favorable.             C. Careful.                D. Unclear.

第二节 (共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分)

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。

Being a teenager is hard. __16 __And parents don’t always know how to be supportive. Clinical psychologist Lisa Damour says instead of jumping into problem-solving mode, parents can learn to ride the wave of emotional management with their teens. Here are some of her suggestions.

 __17__One of the best gifts you can give them is to be a steady presence and lead with curiosity and empathy (共情). When a teen is experiencing low self-esteem, Damour says comforting doesn’t work nearly as well as we would like. __18__Try saying, “You know that’s not true, but it must feel awful to feel that way.”

Talking about emotions is good, but there can be a tipping point when talking too much about feelings.  In this situation, Damour suggests comforting and then shifting a teen who’s over-processing their emotions into something else. __19 __    

For the teen who doesn’t talk about their feelings, Damour reminds parents that there are healthy non-verbal ways to process emotions. Listening to music, playing sports and making art are healthy ways for teens to work through emotions that don’t involve having a discussion.

 __20__But Damour notes that when a teen is too sensitive to some negative feelings and they’re using destructive behaviors to cope,  it’s time to step in and give more support or seek professional help.

A. They are much more dependent on themselves.

B. Another way to help a teen is to turn to professionals.

C. Instead, she suggests empathizing with how the teen feels.

D. Every day holds the possibility of emotional highs and lows.

E. Remember that your teens are at a demanding developmental stage.

F. You can suggest doing an activity they enjoy and revisit the issue the next day.

G. Your teens deserve encouraging when their emotions are handled in a healthy way.

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。

I used to be the only child in the family. Everything changed when Tex was born, and I was ten  at that time.  It  seemed  to me that  Tex  got  too much  attention  from  Mom  and  Dad,  and  I constantly felt a sense of depression. However, my little six-year-old brother had no idea about that, sticking with me all day long, which sometimes really annoyed me.

Last week, I was creating a birthday book for Dad . I worked forever making each picture as perfect as possible. Every time I messed up, I started all over again, so the floor under the kitchen table was covered with half-finished drawings.

“It’s family chore time, ” Mom announced. “And you’re on laundry-folding duty, ” she told me.

“OK, ” I said. “After that, I’ll just put the finishing touches on Dad’s present. ” “I can help, too!” said my little brother, Tex.

I felt a little uncomfortable. But Mom touched his head gently and said, “Of course, baby, you can. ” Then she turned to me, “And, Anna, please always remember to move those papers from the floor to the recycling bin in the yard when you’re done with your project. ”

I folded the laundry as fast as possible. Just as I was about to get back to the birthday book, my friend showed up. After checking with Mom, we headed to the park. But as soon as we arrived there, the sky filled with giant gray clouds and rain started pouring down. I was upset as I headed back home, dripping wet. That’s when my heart pretty much stopped. Right there, in front of the recycling bin, was a box full of wet-through papers. And not just any papers ... I ran to rescue my birthday book drawings. But it was too late. As I picked up my once-perfect pictures, they were totally ruined!

I cried, “Tex, how did they get out here in the rain?”

Nervously, he came out and said, “Sorry, but I meant to help. I heard what Mom said, and I did it for you. But I had no idea why your birthday book was in those papers.”
