Plenty of businesses have suffered during the novel coronavirus pandemic, but business for Laura Stone is booming.
Laura is the founder of Sydney by Kayak, a company that offers guided kayak(皮艇) tours of Sydney Harbor(海港) in Australia. Not only did their business not decrease during the pandemic, but one of their tours is actually more popular than ever.
A few years ago, Laura was paddling in the harbor when she noticed trash(垃圾) floating in the water. For reference, the United Nations Environment Programme estimates that about 8 million tons of plastic end up in our oceans each year, causing big problems for wildlife.
Laura was so appalled by the garbage in the water that she decided to dedicate a few paddles each week to trash cleanup. Incredibly, her clients were immediately on board with the idea, so Sydney by Kayak now leads four to five garbage-collecting tours every week!
At the start of the pandemic, Laura assumed her business would drop off as many others had. Instead, desperate for purpose and a way to get outdoors, people went to her “Clean Up Kayak” tours. They now routinely take about 441 pounds of garbage out of the harbor each week!
“We’ve been quite surprised, even through the pandemic, we’ve been very busy,” Laura said. “Because they can’t travel, people are looking for something to do, that is not just good for them, but also good for the environment.”
Each tour begins with participants preparing a paddle, bucket, picker stick, and sieve(筛子). Some people come back multiple times for the satisfaction of collecting trash from the harbor. Julie Greening, for example, has done about 10 tours so far and says “every little bit is worth it”.
“There’re 7 billion people on this planet, so everyone does a little, and of course it’s going to help,” she says.
Fresh air, sunshine, exercise, good company, and a great cause: What else do you need? Laura has found on an incredible, pandemic-proof business idea that helps the earth as much as it helps participants.
24. Why is Laura's business more popular during lockdown?
A. Because her business is related to guided kayak tours.
B. Because she helps tackle the litter problem in the oceans.
C. Because she deals with the food problem for ocean wildlife.
D. Because she has unique business skills compared to other businessmen.
25. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “appalled” in Paragraph 4?
A. Shocked. B. Curious. C. Satisfied. D. Excited.
26. What qualities does Laura have according to the text?
A. Caring and devoted. B. Active and gifted.
C. Creative but selfish. D. Hard-working but mean.
27. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Sea Kayak Adventure Group B. Properly Maintain Your Kayak
C. How to Clean the Outside of Your Kayak D. Kayakers Remove Trash from Sydney Harbor
C
Recently, more than 100 Asian elephants made their way across The Mall in front of London’s Buckingham Palace. They weren’t live animals, however, but life-sized elephant sculptures that were handmade by Indigenous community members from the jungles of Tamil Nadu in South India.
The environmental art exhibition is called CoExistence. It was headed by Elephant Family and The Real Elephant Collective, a British Charity and nonprofit socio-environmental enterprise aimed at raising awareness for the Indian elephant. Meant as a response to the increasing conflicts between humans and animals, the campaign’s goal is to start a movement of global empathy(共鸣) for members of the animal kingdom who, like the powerful elephant, have found themselves sharing natural habitats with fast-growing human populations.
The sculptures were made using an invasive(侵入式的) weed called lantana, whose removal coincides with benefits to wildlife in protected areas, where the elephants began their migration. Flying alongside the elephant are sculpted flocks of bird species that have been declared extinct or endangered in the UK.
The project helps demonstrate this unique time in history where the worldwide reduction in human activity from COVID-19 has had an overall positive effect on certain pockets of wildlife species around the planet.
“Today marks the first significant step on the herd’s 13,000 miles migration around the world. Over the past 18 months, many countries have gone into lockdown,” said Ruth Ganesh, Creative at The Real Elephant Collective and Elephant Family Trustee. “Brought about by sad circumstances, this great pause is providing crucial guidance on how to best share space with animals in our crowded planet. The elephants are here to tell their story about the inspiring ways we can coexist with all the other living beings that make our world magical—from tigers and monkeys, to nightingales and elephants.”
28. What’s Paragraph 1 mainly about?
A. Life-sized elephant sculptures in London.
B. The Mall before London's Buckingham Palace.
C. An analysis of the effect of COVID-19 on wildlife.
D. Caring for London’s elephants during COVID-19.
29. What’s the real aim of CoExistence held?
A. To warn people not to kill elephants.
B. To call on humans to live peacefully with animals.
C. To solve the problem about the extinction of wildlife.
D. To raise the awareness of protecting wildlife during COVID-19.
30. In addition to elephant sculptures, what appeared with them?
A. Some birds and kites. B. Some live animals.
C. Some sculptured birds. D. Some volunteers saving endangered wildlife.
31. What can we know from Ruth Ganesh’s words?
A. COVID-19 has a negative effect on wildlife.
B. Elephants are loved more than other living beings.
C. The lockdown helps people realize how to coexist with wildlife.
D. He is confused about the worrying circumstances during the lockdown.

A retired couple in the Netherlands have moved into Europe’s first fully 3D-printed house. The two-bedroom bungalow(平房) in Eindhoven is the first of five homes planned on the site in the coming months, using a huge 3D-printer. It’s part of some special teamwork between Eindhoven University of Technology and the Vesteda housing company called Project Milestone.
This house was designed by an architect and printed using a huge robotic arm in a special warehouse(仓库). The printer uses a nozzle(喷嘴) that squirts out special substance to print out the building, layer by layer.
Once the house had been printed it was transported by vehicle to the building site where it was placed on a foundation, and a roof and windows were added.
In the longer term, many in the building industry believe that 3D-printed homes could become a sustainable solution for tackling housing shortages. The technology is friendlier to the environment and reduces costs because it uses less concrete and homes are quicker to build. The new home took just 120 hours to print, much quicker than building a house in the traditional way, which can take around 1—2 years to build.
The new owners Elize Lutz and Harrie Dekkers, will pay $800 a month to live in the house for six months, after they responded to a request for volunteers.
“I saw a drawing of this house and it looked exactly like a garden,” said Elize. “It’s beautiful.” “It feels safe,” added Harrie.
Construction companies in the US and France have already been using 3D printing to build parts of homes, but this one is the first to be fully built and have people live in it.
32. What’s the aim of mentioning a retired couple?
A. To stress their wealthy background. B. To advertise to sell a 3D-printed house.
C. To introduce the topic of the 3D printing. D. To explain their reason for moving the 3D-printed house.
33. What can be learned about the 3D-printed house?
A. It cost less and was finished more quickly. B. It was completed within around 1—2 years.
C. It was designed in a two-bedroom bungalow. D. It was added a roof and windows in a special warehouse.
34. What do the retired couple think of the 3D-printed house?
A. Environmentally-friendly but unsafe. B. Expensive but well-designed.
C. Cheap and common. D. Pretty and secure.
35. Where can the text be found?
A. In a history book. B. In a novel.
C. In an art magazine. D. In a newspaper.

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。
Dancing is natural and almost any child can dance. However, why do so many people find it hard to dance when they reach their teens or adulthood? 36
Most people have heard the words “Dance like nobody is watching.” 37 When we’re learning something new, we hate having an audience watching our silly mistakes. Actually, everyone else is too busy worrying about their own mistakes. Chances are that you’re not the only one struggling with the steps!
We all have patterns of muscle memory. Your body likes doing repetitive movements that it doesn’t have to think about. 38 Your brain may understand, but it can take a while to direct your limbs to interpret these new and unfamiliar movements. Be patient with yourself and understand it's the way your body works.
39 If you’ve never danced before, the complex rhythms and fast footwork of flamenco would be a big challenge as the first dance style. If you’re inflexible, I wouldn’t recommend starting cold with ballet, either. Instead, do some yoga first to get your body used to the new demands ballet will place on it.
A lack of rhythm is the biggest obstacle to learning to dance. However, it can be overcome with enough practice. 40 Then learn to dance when you begin to feel the beat. Dance can be a very rewarding and enjoyable hobby. Just be patient with yourself and learn to dance.
A. It’s human nature to dislike looking foolish.
B. You’ll be able to do them almost without thinking.
C. If you have he rhythm, try to master dance steps first.
D: Learning a musical instrument is a good way to learn rhythm.
E. Dance requires you to move your arms and legs in unusual ways.
F. The other possibility is that you picked a style of dance that doesn’t suit you.
G. There are many things that can hold people back when they try to learn dancing.

第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
When it comes to 61 (effect) communication, even though we rely on language to express our 62 (thought) or emotions, nonverbal(非言语的) communication, such as facial expressions and body language, is just as important as the words we use. But the COVID-19 pandemic 63 (pose) a challenge to the entire world over the past three years. With social distancing and the use of face masks 64 (become) the new normal, we might have become a bit more deliberate(小心翼翼的) about expressing ourselves and have 65 tendency to adjust our facial expressions or body language in our interactions with others. We might be “louder” nonverbally. For example, a tight hug could, in normal circumstances, tell our friends we were super excited 66 (see) them. The same goes for how we express ourselves while giving opinions in a meeting room—the body language is “louder” since the people are 67 (far) away from us than usual.
In another situation, if we’re meeting someone for the first time, 68 is best to offer a “heart hello” by placing our hand on our heart and leaning forward 69 (slight) with eye contact to show respect, instead of a handshake. The pandemic is accelerating(加快) our speed of learning 70 to use nonverbal language to replace verbal language in some cases and we have built a new set of rules during this process.
