An“adulting conference” (AC)this week allowed Kentucky high school seniors the chance to
learn how to change a tire，how to cook and other basic life skills—things that they may not have
learned at home or in classes.A series of photos posted by Bullitt Central High School on social media
shows students taking“adulting conference”are learning about personal finances，resumes and
other essential skills at the event，which has been widely reported on the local and national news
outlets.
“I saw a Facebook post that parents passed around saying they needed a class in high school on
taxes and cooking，”AC organizer Hardin told Louisville’s WAVE 3 News.Those skills are taught
at school theoretically，she said，but the event gave students a chance to fill in gaps in their
knowledge.
Students could choose to attend three workshops out of 11 total options，the school says.The
workshops were held in cooperation with numerous community partners.
Some young people have left home and graduated school without having those gaps filled，
according to a report this week from CBS New York，which documented a trend of young people
seeking outclasses to learn basic life skills.
While attending a cooking class，29-year-old Elena Toumaras told the station she’s struggling
with“simple things.”
“I was so used to，when living at home，my mom always cooking，”she told the station.
An“Adulting School”in Portland，Maine，aims to use a new online format to teach the youths
skills like conflict resolution，sewing and appreciation for all，the station says.
Students’financial literacy has been of particular concern to some experts，as financial
education in schools has stagnated(停滞)in the U.S.，with only 17 states requiring students to take
classes in personal finance—a number that hasn’t risen in years.
“The majority of U.S.states are failing our students by declining to offer these fundamental
courses which are critical to their financial stability and security later in life.And this will be changed.”Nan J.Morrison，president and CEO of the Council for Economic Education，told CNBC.
24.What do we know about the“adulting conference”?
A. It draws much attention from the media. B. It is not taught at home.
C. It teaches seniors how to be a reporter. D. It is broadcast live to the public.
25.What can we learn from what Christy Hardin said?
A. Only taxes and cooking classes ale demanded.
B. AC helps put what has been learnt into practice.
C. Many parents passed by the AC classroom.
D. The event was organized by.some parents.
26.Why did Elena Toumaras attend a cooking class?
A. To document a trend. B. To struggle with“simple things”.
C. To satisfy her mother. D. To learn basic life skills.
27.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?
A. Expels will be concerned about finance.
B. Fundamental majors won’t be provided in schools.
C. More financial courses will be offered.
D. More states will decline students’courses.
C
In the middle of the 19th century，a fever dream of riches beyond measure drew countless
explorers west to the mountains of central California.Although the gold rush ended up being a bust for
many who sought a fortune，some of those explorers discovered a natural treasure that would draw
permanent settlers to Yosemite Valley in the following decade.
Vast wilderness，beautiful mountains，countless waterfalls，and abundant wildlife drew Native
Americans to Yosemite roughly 10，000 years ago.The first non-native tourists arrived in the
mid-1850s after reports from gold seekers told of an area of breathtaking beauty that no words were
able to describe.
Fortunately，some of Yosemite’s earliest settlers recognized that Yosemite’s natural beauty
and resources needed to be preserved for future generations.In the midst of the Civil War，President
Abraham Lincoln signed a grant to protect Yosemite permanently，thus making it the nation’s first
land to be dedicated to recreation and setting the stage for what would become the national park system.
One of Yosemite’s earliest ambassadors was Scottish-American naturalist and writer John
Muir.After living in Yosemite for a few years，he helped define its proposed boundaries.He also
wrote articles that helped lead to its official title as a National Park in 1890.He later co-founded the
Sierra Club in 1892 to advocate for its continued preservation and protection.
Located on the western slope of the Sierra Nevada mountain range in central California，
Yosemite National Park runs across nearly 748，000 acres，almost 95％of which is
wilderness.Around four million visitors come to Yosemite each year to camp，hike its miles of trails，
climb its rock formations，and photograph its impressive sights.Are you ready to visit Yosemite
National Park? Which of Yosemite’s sights would you most like to experience?
28.Which of the following best explains“bust”underlined in Paragraph 1?
A. Memory. B. Symbo1. C. Failure. D. Challenge.
29.When did the first non-native tourists come to Yosemite?
A. After it was discovered by gold seekers.
B. When the gold rush finally came to a stop.
C. Before native Americans found its beauty.
D. When it became a National Park in 1890.
30.What do we learn about John Muir?
A. He was the first to build the national park.
B. He helped set the boundaries of Yosemite.
C. He wrote to collect money for Yosemite.
D. He gave Yosemite an official name.
31.What do we know about Yosemite National Park?
A. It has been well preserved since the Civil War.
B. It was originally created to protect wild animals.
C. It used to be well-known for its man-made beauty.
D. It was once damaged by some of its earliest settlers.
D
Businesses are witnessing a difficult time, which has in turn produced influence on consumers’
desire to go green. However, shoppers are still laying stress on environmental concerns.Two thirds of customers say that environmental considerations inform their purchases to the
same degree as they did a year ago, while more than a quarter say that they are now even better aware
of the environmental effect on what they buy.
This may help to influence how shops store goods on their shelves. And the companies should
still make efforts to become more environmentally friendly. Two out of three people think it is
important to buy from environmentally responsible companies, with about one in seven saying that
they had even decided to take their custom elsewhere if they felt a company’s environmental
reputation was not good enough.
Harry Morrison, chief executive(主管)of the Carbon Trust, sympathizes:“I understand this
situation where survival is very important now. But from environmental considerations, the clock is
ticking—we don’t have much time. In addition, cutting carbon has an immediate effect as costs drop
and a medium-term benefit for the brand.”
Larger companies have an extra motivation to look at reducing their carbon footprint, as new
rules next year will require businesses to buy carbon allowances to make up for their emissions(排放).
Those that have taken early action will have a head start. More than two thirds of consumers are not
clear about which companies are environmentally responsible. This suggests that firms that are able to
relay clearly their message to the public will be in a pole position to attract shoppers.
The Carbon Trust believes that it can help by informing customers about the good work
companies are doing.“When companies are granted(授予)the standard, they can use a logo(标识)in all
their marketing which makes it clear that they are working towards cutting emissions,”Mr. Morrison
said.
32.What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Businesses are finding ways to send their message to the shoppers.
B. Companies will soon get information about cutting carbon emissions.
C. Firms are making efforts to encourage customers to keep goods at home.
D. Firms are urged to cut carbon emissions by shoppers’ environmental awareness.
33.The underlined word“inform”in Paragraph 2 probably means“ ”.
A. affect B. change C. disturb D. reject
34.According to Harry Morrison, businesses .
A. will benefit from cutting carbon emissionsB. should buy carbon allowances for shoppers
C. are required to make up for their carbon emissions
D. have encouraged shoppers to take their custom elsewhere
35.We can learn from the passage that businesses will .
A. have a strong desire to reduce costs
B. use the same logo in their marketing
C. gain advantages by taking early action
D. attract more shoppers by storing goods

My dream job
Good morning, everyone, I feel honored to deliver a speech here sharing my dream with you. I hope
to be a teacher in the future. The main reason is that I get a lot of positive energy from my English
teacher, who promotes lifelong learning attitude. As a teacher I’ll be motivated to keep updating
what I have learned through lifelong learning so as to keep pace with young students, because they
are always energetic and have new ideas. Besides, education plays an increasing important role in
the development of society. Therefore, more qualified teachers are in great demand. What’s more,
I’m out-going and enjoy communicating with others, which is definitely helpful in the teaching
career.
To reach my dream, I will work hard to enter a good normal university to equip myself with relevant
knowledge such as psychology, education theory and teaching skills. I believe I will make a good
teacher through efforts.
Thank you for listening.
