For many years, Jenna Arcidiacono has made headlines for serving up all kinds of good deeds across West Michigan. Her latest effort to help local restaurants, called "Tip Back Thursday", is now making waves on social media.
Arcidiacono, the owner of Amore Trattoria Italiana, said she got the idea after her kids introduced her
to Tik Tok. "I found a girl in Nashville who was doing crowdfunding to tip a server," she explained. "I want to start doing that here locally. However, instead of giving to one person, I'd like to bless a whole place. So we decided that we're just going to tip big for a whole staff."
With the community's support, the Tip Back Thursday movement has caught on, raising more than
$20, 000 in just six weeks. Arcidiacono selects several local restaurants to bless each week with a big tip, usually of $1 ,000 or more.
"We've had a few who didn't even know what to say, because they're not expecting it," said
Arcidiacono. "You don't know what someone else is going through or how much they're struggling, because they're going to smile at work and get through it."
Arcidiacono had to close Amore for several months at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Her restaurant is still operating at limited capacity due to the latest state health order. "We've had a rough
emotional year, financial year, and everything's been hard, so we 're just trying to keep our heads up," she said. "I struggled this year too, because I missed having people here, because that's what I love—I love having people to spoil (宠)."
Arcidiacono has no idea how long Tip Back Thursday will last, but she hopes it will continue. "I just

feel so good when I get to give back to someone who is in the same position as I'm in. I would hope that if I were in that position, someone would do that for me."
4. How did Arcidiacono come up with the idea of "Tip Back Thursday"?
A. She got the idea from her children.
B. She was inspired by a girl on Tik Tok.
C. She wanted to set an example to others.
D. She was reminded by the staff of a restaurant.
5. What does the underlined word "it" in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Tik Tok. B. COVID-19.
C. A local restaurant. D. A big tip.
6. What does Jenna Arcidiacono do?
A. A news reporter. B. A community worker.
C. A restaurant owner. D. A government official.
7. What's Arcidiacono's purpose in starting "Tip Back Thursday"?
A. To help the poor in her community.
B. To support those in a difficult situation.
C. To get herself out of financial trouble.

After Hurricane Maria swept through Puerto Rico in 2017 and caused huge damage, researchers found rhesus macaques, a species of monkey living on Cayo Santiago, became more sociable with each other, according to a study published in the journal Current Biology.
"The monkeys live in a highly competitive society and can become aggressively protective over
resources like food and water," said study author Camille Testard, a professor of neuroscience at the University of Pennsylvania's Perelman School of Medicine. "That's why researchers predicted that after the hurricane, the monkeys would stick with their closest friends in order to survive," Testard said. Instead, the island's residents became more tolerant of each other and greatly expanded their friend group.
"To measure the monkeys' socialization and friendship-building, researchers tracked who they
groomed (梳毛), which is one of the ways monkeys bond with one another," Testard said. "It serves a
similar function for us to getting coffee or a beer with friends," she added. After the hurricane, the "grooming networks" became denser, Testard said, meaning there were more connections being formed compared to the monkeys' behavior before the storm. The scientists found the animals made friends with friends of their friends, which she said is a common "easy" route to making friends that's mirrored in human social circles.
The researchers didn't know why the monkeys decided to make more friends, but Testard assumed it
could be "a strategy to gain tolerance and support from the greatest number of individuals and thereby access to limited resources like shade."
The monkeys could be forming additional bonds to "buffer" them from future hardship from the
natural disaster, said Brenda MeCowan, a professor of population health and reproduction, who was not involved in the study. She said the findings also provide an insight into how humans might cope with the increasing threat of climate crisis. "Rhesus macaques are close evolutionary relatives to humans and share many features of their biology and behavior with us, "said McCowan. "Our best friends can give us many things, but sometimes, what we need is a social network where everyone is just friendly enough."
8. What was the researchers' prediction about the monkeys alter the hurricane?
A. They would narrow their circle of friends.
B. They would spend more time making friends.
C. They would become less aggressive than before.
D. They would value the accessible resources.
9. Why do the monkeys groom each other according to Testard?
A. To build closer bonds.
B. To get food opportunities.
C. To keep safe physically.
D. To show tolerance and support.
10. What's the message McCowan conveys in the last paragraph?
A. We must learn to live in harmony with wildlife.
B. We should be more united to face global challenges.
C. Human behavior has a great influence on monkeys.
D. Climate crisis is now the biggest threat to our survival.
11. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Monkeys and humans have similar behavior.
B. Monkeys managed to survive natural disasters.
C. Biological ties do exist between humans and monkeys.
D. Monkeys formed unexpected friendship after the hurricane.

Tasked with helping to make sure Utrecht's canals remain full of life, and convincing everyone it wasn't an April Fools' Day joke, two ecologists in the Dutch city have invented the world' s first "fish doorbell".
An underwater, live-streaming camera at the "Weerdsluis" lock door allows residents to ring a virtual
doorbell which can be heard by the local lock keeper when they see that fish are trying to get through. A

lock is a gate that raises or lowers canal boats into different levels of water separated by two doors, and a sluice is a small fish-sized door that allows water and fish to pass between them.
"You have to see the canal as a motorway for fishes. Sometimes you see literally dozens of fish
floundering in front of the lock gate, so a fish jam is created," says underwater nature expert Mark
Heukelum. "The Weerdsluis is the link between the Vecht and the Kromme Rijn. In winter the fish swim deeper, because it is warmer and safer there. In summer they want to go to shallow water so that they can reproduce," he adds.
Mark Heukelum came up with the doorbell idea while working with wildlife ecologist Anne Nijs on a
project to highlight the biodiversity in Utrecht' s canals. At that time they noticed how the lock keeper Patrick opened the sluice to allow a large group of arriving fish to pass through.
Nijs says it's a great way to connect residents with their aquatic neighbors, and noted that when Mark
took the idea to the municipality they were very excited. The only uncertainty was why they created a camera and a signal to Patrick when they could just install a motion-activated (动作感应的) sensor.
Mark Heukelum explains: "Technically that is probably possible, but this is of course much more fun.
I am already addicted to it myself and watch it every night. You suddenly see a large pike swimming by or a lobster. It would be nice if you could spot a rarer fish such as a bindweed or bleak. Or maybe an eel."
12. What can we know about the "Weerdsluis"?
A. It connects two places on Utrecht's canals.
B. It is a fish species found in Utrecht's canals.
C. It is a group of residents on Utrecht's canals.
D. It controls the water temperatures in Utrecht's canals.
13. What does the underlined word "floundering" in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Performing. B. Settling down.
C. Struggling. D. Giving birth.
14. What gave Mark Heukelum the idea of the "fish doorbell"?
A. Anne Nijs' suggestion. B. A TV program.
C. An April Fools' Day joke. D. A scene at the "Weerdsluis" lock door.
15. Why did Mark Heukelum prefer a "fish doorbell" to a motion-activated device?
A. It's technically much easier. B. It costs much less to build.
C. It is much more interesting. D. It's environmentally friendly.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 选项中有两项为多余选项。
Winter isn't a time to just stay indoors and wait for spring. There's a whole wonderland of sports out
there for the entire family—sledding (滑雪橇), snowboarding, and skiing to mention a few. Plus, someone has to shovel the snow, right?
Once outdoors, however, make sure that your family are safe all the time. 16 , and before you
know it, you might be on your way to the emergency room.
It's easy to keep safe—and stay fit—during the cold months. By following a few tips, you can have a great time, no matter how much white stuff piles up outside.
If your kids decide to go sledding on their own for the day, make sure you know about the hill where
they will be playing. 17 ? If so, it's not a good location for sledding. Also, watch out for hills with
rocks or those near busy roads.
18 , resulting in broken bones and injuries to the head, and neck. So it's wise to supervise your
kids when they go sledding. Experts also suggest having kids wear helmets to help prevent head injuries.
Ice hockey and ice skating are great cold-weather activities, but require safety smarts, too. Make sure your kids avoid sports injuries by wearing helmets during ice hockey games and properly fitted skates
whenever on the ice. 19 . Rinks (溜冰场) are always safer than ponds for skating. If you only have
access to a pond, check the thickness of the ice yourself to prevent falls through it and supervise your kids while they skate.
Before they hit the slopes with a snowboard or ski, make sure your kids are wearing helmets and
protective goggles. Skiers' safety bindings (the attachment that secures the ski boot to the ski) should be
checked yearly, and snowboarders should wear gloves with built-in wrist guards. 20 .
A. All equipment should fit well
B. Is it steep or covered with trees
C. Sledding injuries can be very serious
D. Accidents can occur easily in ice and snow
E. Ice skaters should also consider wearing helmets
F. Skiing can lead to accidents that often involve kids
G. Are there any injuries that are more common in the winter
