Len Collingwood, a clinical nurse specialist, retired on his 65th birthday. He told his wife, Sally, he would “start out as an adventure cyclist.”
Four months later, he set off on a 13,000 km cycle ride from Ulaanbaatar in Mongolia to Edinburgh, much of it roughly shadowing Marco Polo’s Silk Road. No sooner had he started out than a snowstorm hit. He hid in his tent, wearing every item of clothing he had packed. At - 18°C it was too cold to go outside to cook. He survived the next 48 hours by eating a massive bag of chocolates.
So it is a surprise to hear Collingwood say that he has never feared for his life. “Never. There’s always something to be curious about,” he says.
In 2018, he rode from Edinburgh to Istanbul to earn a place in Guinness World Records. “There are very few records a man over 60 can break,” he says. During the trip, he got a dozen punctures (轮胎上刺破的小孔). But he fixed each one. “I’ve always been serious about purpose. If something is to be done, it is to be done properly. People go forwards and people go backwards. The difficult bit is managing the times when people go backwards,” he says. “Don’t let the moment ruin the whole thing.”
He turns 71 this year. He is about to begin the 1,407 km trip to John O’ Groats. It sounds tough but he insists “it’s just a matter of spinning (转) the wheels.” Still, they don’t spin on their own. His daughter — a yoga teacher — has suggested weights to maintain muscle mass. His son, a cyclist, keeps him up to speed on the latest technology.
Collingwood is planning new rides in France next year, and hopes to spread his wings further. Because there is peace on a bicycle. He says, “The joy is the actual doing of the activity. Going further means you’re just doing more of something you enjoy.”
24. What happened to Collingwood when his first journey had just started?
A. He lost his way in Mongolia. B. He got trapped in heavy snow.
C. He had nothing to satisfy his hunger. D. He had no clothes to warm himself.
25. Which of the following can best describe Collingwood?
A. Courageous and determined. B. Generous and sympathetic.
C. Curious and imaginative. D. Unusual and scholarly.
26. How did Collingwood’s son help him?
A. By checking his physical condition. B. By planning the routes for him.
C. By giving him technical support. D. By accompanying him on the way.
27. What does Collingwood say about cycling?
A. It contributes to his health. B. It helps him make money.
C. It calls for careful planning. D. It carries his joy forward.

In the past decade, the use of social media has grown in a way that no one could have guessed. It has turned some teenagers into celebrities (名人) and turned the famous into the infamous overnight.
A key feature of social media, however, is its volatility. Trends come and go, disappearing almost as quickly as they appeared. Short video apps such as TikTok took the world by storm. Why are these short videos — which are rarely longer than a few minutes — so popular? Jiang Yige, a Singapore — based analyst, has a theory. Short videos are “just right to fill in the little gaps in our busy schedules”, he told CNBC.These videos — apart from being very convenient — are important to teenagers because they allow them to express themselves, according to CNBC.
The sense of community that users of short video apps get is another appealing feature. Lisa Koshy, a user of TikTok, who has over 2 million followers, said that she was thrilled when anyone said that her video had “inspired” him. “It’s really cool...because I think as short video creators that’s what we all expect.” she added.
Live streaming is another feature of our social media life that now seems as natural as sunrise. It’s a pretty neat idea: You can watch anyone, anywhere, live.
However, the boom in social media may be having side effects too. Fake news is one serious problem it arguably causes. Material shared on these platforms is often not checked for accuracy. The most basic content can be false and can sway users one way or another. We use social media all the time; that doesn’t mean that we understand the influence it is having on us. We should be mindful of both the time we spend on it and its impact on our minds.
28. The underlined word “volatility” in Paragraph 2 possibly means “being ________”.
A. changeable B. steady C. promising D. violent
29. According to Lisa Koshy, why are short videos very popular?
A. Because they are very convenient.
B. Because they help people kill time.
C. Because they allow people to express themselves.
D. Because they provide a sense of community.
30. What can we learn from the development of social media?
A. The information from social media is highly reliable.
B. Short videos have been replaced by live streaming.
C. People can’t communicate with each other without social media.
D. There is still much room for social media to make improvement.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Key Trends of Social Media B. Short Videos Taking the World by Storm
C. The Influence of Social Media on Teenagers D. Live Streaming: Tomorrow of Social Media
D
In the shallow waters near the ocean shore, kelp (海藻) grows thickly absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere. It grows at a rate of nearly 60 cm daily and if moved to a more nutrient rich depth of 80 m, it even grows faster. It’s this rapid growth that allows kelp to lock large amounts of carbon away — similar to a tree. Kelp and other species of seaweed could remove 61-268 million tonnes of carbon from the atmosphere every year.
Kelp can also be turned into biofuel. “This biofuel from kelp can use all the existing refining (精炼) systems of the petrochemical industry,” says Brian Wilcox, the chief engineer at California-based company Marine BioEnergy. “It in many cases looks like crude oil (原油) and it goes through the same processes.”
Researchers are developing what they hope could be a solution that would allow large kelp farming to be used for biofuel. Diane Kim, an ecologist at the University of Southern California, and her teammates collected two sets of kelp from their underwater habitat off the coast of Santa Catalina Island, California. Forty of the kelp chains were attached to a long line at a depth of 10 m near the kelp’s original habitat. Another 40 were fixed to a pole that could move to varying depths like a lift. For 100 days, the second set was put at a depth of 80 m during the night. During the daytime, researchers lifted it close to the ocean surface to absorb sunlight.
After the experiment, the depth-cycled kelp produced almost four times as much biomass as the set kept at the shallower depth. In addition, the depth-cycled kelp grew far faster — at 5% per day against 3.5% for the other set. Kim and her teammates believe this depth-cycling represents a promising option for biofuel generation as it allows kelp to take advantage of both the sunlight closer to the surface and the higher nutrients further down in the water column. Using methods like this could allow kelp to be farmed for biofuel.
32. In what way is kelp beneficial to the environment?
A. It lets essential nutrients flow into sea water.
B. It can take in a variety of pollutants in the ocean.
C. It is greatly helpful in reducing greenhouse gases.
D. It allows other species of seaweed to grow faster.
33. What does Wilcox say about kelp-based biofuel?
A. It will be unaffordable for its many users.
B. It is likely to be less efficient than crude oil.
C. It may release more carbon into the atmosphere.
D. It involves little investment in production equipment.
34. How did the first set of kelp differ from the second set?
A. It grew at a fixed depth underwater. B. It constantly moved around the seafloor.
C. It absorbed more sunlight and nutrients. D. It included much more kelp chains.
35. What conclusion can be drawn from the last paragraph?
A. Kelp grows much faster in shallow waters.
B. Depth-cycling can make kelp farming workable.
C. Kelp grown in darkness will produce better biofuel.
D. Farmed kelp must be kept away from its natural habitat.

The Manly History of Knitting (编织)
Knitting has seen a massive return lately. 36 Today, it’s mainly thought of as a woman’s pastime (消遣), although more and more men are picking up knitting needles as well. That’s not an odd thing at all — in fact, they’re following in the footsteps of centuries of manly knitters.
It’s been suggested that the earliest roots of knitting were found in the minds and hands of fishermen. The theory, although it’s unproven, says that catching fish one at a time with a single line was difficult and time-consuming. 37 They used the nets to catch fish, and the roots of knitting were born.
The earliest knitted objects we have ever found are some pretty impressive Egyptian socks. The socks have some small, complex patterns on them. The art form had been just about perfected around the 10th century. 38 It was something for the upper class. Knitted items were found in the tombs (墓) of Spanish royalty.
In the 1400s came the establishment of guilds (公会) to teach the art of knitting. The guilds only consisted of males, and the process that was required to join them was extremely difficult. Teenage boys who were destined (注定) for the knitters’ guild had six years of training ahead of them before they could even think about becoming an official knitter. 39
The shift in knitting from a male-only occupation to a female-dominated hobby came in the Victorian era. With the invention of knitting machines, it was no longer necessary for tradesmen to go through all the years of training. 40 By 1880, the idea of women knitting scarves, socks, and gloves for a lover was a notion romanticized in poetry.
A. The history of knitting is a little foggy.
B. Fishermen tied ropes together to form nets.
C. Women began to take up knitting as a hobby.
D. European knitting came around by 1275 or so.
E. They would be required to create a knitted carpet.
F. Social media is full of people sharing their latest creations.
G. Men would then need to complete an entrance exam for the guild.

Past and Future Friends
It was the first day of school. When Mike spotted his friend Jack down the hall, he smiled slightly and increased his pace. Before he could catch up, however, one boy sprinted (快速奔跑) down the hall and fell into step with Jack. Lou, the most popular guy in school, was Jack’s new football teammate. Mike stopped walking and watched Jack and Lou laughing heartily as they walked down the hall.
Later that day, Mike saw that Jack was in his P. E. class. Relieved, he approached Jack and was greeted with a “Hey!” Before Mike could answer, though, Lou walked into the gym and Jack hurried to join him on the court. The scene in front of him faded away as Mike remembered another day of school almost two years earlier.
“Got anything good?”
The dark - haired boy looked up from the cafeteria table where he was sitting alone. He waved his hand at the remains of his paper bag lunch. “Not really.”
“I’m Mike Adams,” Mike said. “You’re Jack, right? How do you like Markham Elementary School so far?”
Jack gave a small smile. “Can’t say I like being the new kid. People aren’t very friendly.” “You just have to give them a chance,” Mike said. “Come over to my table. I’ll introduce you.”
The two boys had quickly become best friends. They had done everything together: practicing their skateboarding moves, riding their bikes to get ice cream, and fishing at Miller’s Pond.
Still, Mike had not seen much of Jack over the last summer. Jack’s family had gone on vacation for several weeks, and then Jack had started football practice, which was clearly how he had become such a good friend with Lou.
Mike felt a knot (郁结) in his stomach. Was he going to lose his best friend because he had not tried out for football? As he looked at Jack’s stylish new clothes and haircut, the knot in his stomach grew. After class, he left without trying to talk to Jack, and for the next few days, Mike avoided him altogether.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Mike was walking home from school on Thursday when he heard footsteps behind him. _______________________________________________________________________________
Mike was a frozen statue as he watched Jack go away, thinking about the invitation from Jack.

Dear Tom,
How are you doing? Recently I've made some Chinese knots and I would like to donate these knots to your school.
I twisted colorful silk threads into various shapes by myself, which were time-consuming. Traditionally, Chinese knots are expected to drive off evil spirits and act as lucky charms. Today the knots are commonly used as a hanging decoration such as in the home or car. Could you help me to give these hand-made knots to your school as a symbol of friendship?
I'd really appreciate it if you could do me the favor.
Yours,
Li Hua
