In India，one of the most significant festivals is Diwali，which falls between October
and November. It’s a five-day celebration that includes good food，fireworks，colored
sand，and special candles and lamps.
In honor of Lakshmi，the Hindu goddess of wealth，people make special prayers on
the first day to obtain blessings for welfare，success，and well-being People welcome the
goddess into their homes by decorating entrances with colorful lanterns and traditional
designs. In addition，many people treat themselves to fine jewelry，praying for good
fortune. Those who cannot afford so much，seek out cheaper items such as clothes or
household goods.
The second day of the festival is called Kali Chaudas. For some，the day provides an
opportunity to drive away misfortune from homes and businesses. They decorate their
homes with clay lamps and create design patterns called rangoli on the floor using colored
powder or sand.
The third day is when the biggest celebrations occur，which begin early in the morning
with a visit to a temple to seek the blessings of the goddess. As the sun sets，festival
observers light up their homes with small lamps and enjoy delicious traditional foods with
their loved ones.
The festival’s fourth day is celebrated in many different ways. Friends and relatives
visit with gifts，sweets and best wishes for the season.
And the final day of the festival is called Bhai Oooj It honors the close bond between
brothers and sisters and is observed with traditional ceremonies and more delicious food.
For children in India，Diwali is similar to Christmas. They get all entire week off from
school and are treated to gifts，new clothes，amazing food，and，in the past at least，a
large number of fireworks. It is no wonder that the festival ranks high among the country’s
favorite celebrations.

For top students from low-income families，the challenge of applying to colleges is
particularly difficult. 1 in 4 deal with all of that—the writing，the studying，the
researching and applying—completely on their own. One approach to make this whole
process easier? Pair students up with an adviser.
That’s the idea behind CollegePoint，an initiative to help gifted students go to schools
that match their intellectual(智力的)ability. When a high school student takes a
standardized test—the PSAT，SAT or ACT——and they score in the 90th percentile，and
their families make less than$80，000 a year，they get an email from the program offering
them a free adviser. The advisers listen，guide and answer students’ questions.
Connor Rechtzigel，an adviser in Minnesota，sees the importance of his role，for
research shows that low-income students are far more likely to under match because they
don’t think they have what it takes to get in and because many don’t even know what
schools are out there He helped high school senior Justice Benjamin，the first in his family
to apply to college，think about what his ideal learning experience was. Finally，Justice
narrowed in on smaller schools where he could study environmental science and made his
final choice：Skidmore College in New York. He felt empowered by the process.
Figuring out how to pay for college is a major part of what，CollegePoint advisers do.
Nakhle，an adviser in North Carolina，is working with Hensley，an Ohio high school
senior who can’t get extra financial help from her family. They spent a lot of time
comparing and analyzing her financial-aid award letters，which made her decision much
clearer. Finally，the Ohio State University offered an option where she would pay nothing.
Staying in-state wasn’t her first choice，but it was the best option for her.
8. What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. The goal of CollegePoint. B. How CollegePoint works.
C. Ways to apply for a free adviser. D. The challenge of choosing colleges.
9. What prevents low-income students from attending proper colleges?
A. Overestimating their abilities B. Failure to get support from their families.
C. Lack of enough learning experience. D. Knowing little about colleges.
10. Why did Hensley finally choose the Ohio State University?
A. She didn’t want to stay far from home.
B. Her favorite major was provided there.
C. The university met her financial needs..D. She would show her talents to the full
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. Advisers Help Poor Students Apply to Suitable Colleges r
B. Steps for Top Students to Select Ideal Colleges
C. How to Be a Financial Advise
D. CollegePoint—a Program Helping Students Score High
D
A 2018 report found that food waste would increase by a third to 2. 1billion tons by
2030. Beyond the cost of the waste itself，thrown-away food generates a gas that
contributes to climate change.
Home delivery meal kits(盒)can reduce food waste by more than two-thirds，but
suppliers need to switch to reusable packaging to make them environmentally friendly.
Tailor-made meal kits cut waste by providing people with precise amounts of fresh
ingredients(烹饪原料)for chosen recipes，meaning leftovers are minimized. But while the
delivery services score well on reducing food waste，buying the same food ingredients
from the supermarket almost always saves energy overall simply because meal kits use so
much single-use packaging. The good news is that if people have meals that are tailored for
consumption，they won’t overbuy and have less food waste. They fine-tune the amount of
food to what they will actually eat.
Meal kits can reduce transport emissions(排放)if people go to the supermarket less
frequently. If people only go and buy such goods as soap and toilet paper，they may only
have to visit once every couple of months. A delivery truck can carry meals for a lot of
people in the neighborhood. So dozens of car trips might be replaced with one truck trip.
However，study found that even if delivery meal kits reduced food waste to zero，they
would still use up more energy overall than buying the same food from the supermarket
unless the energy used for the meal kit packaging was cut by a fifth. The packaging is a
killer if it’s single-use and thrown away，which can make all the environmental benefits
lost. But if the packaging can be reused，if it’s glass bottles，like in the old days，we can
get some benefits.
12. What can we learn about home delivery meal kits?
A. They can cut down on daily expenses.
B. They will totally solve the problem of food waste.
C. They will benefit the environment with reusable packaging.
D. They can keep energy consumption to a minimum.
13. What does the underlined word “fine-tune” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Attach. B. Raise. C. Adjust. D. Compare.
14. The author suggests carrying meals with a delivery truck to__________.
A. shorten car trip distances B. save more food
C. shop only in the supermarket D. reduce transport emissions15. What’s the author’s attitude to meal kits?
A. Supportive. B. Objective. C. Unfavorable. D. Indifferent.

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。续写的词数应为 150 左右。
On a bright, warm July afternoon, Mac Hollan, a primary school teacher, was cycling
from his home to Alaska with his friends. One of his friends had stopped to make a bicycle
repair, but they had encouraged Mac to carry on, and they would catch up with him soon. As Mac pedalled (骑行) along alone, he thought fondly of his wife and two young daughters
at home. He hoped to show them this beautiful place someday.
Then Mac heard quick and loud breathing behind him. “Man, that's a big dog!” he
thought. But when he looked to the side, he saw instantly that it wasn't a dog at all, but a
wolf, quickly catching up with him.
Mac's heart jumped. He found out his can of bear spray. With one hand on the bars, he
fired the spray at the wolf. A bright red cloud enveloped the animal, and to Mac's relief, it
fell back, shaking its head. But a minute later, it was by his side again. Then it attacked the
back of Mac's bike, tearing (扯破)open his tent bag. He fired at the wolf a second time, and
again, it fell back only to quickly restart the chase(追赶)．
Mac was pedaling hard now. He waved and yelled at passing cars but was careful not
to slow down. He saw a steep uphill climb before him. He knew that once he hit (=reach 到
达) the hill, he'd be easy caught up and the wolf's teeth would be tearing into his flesh.
At this moment, Paul and Becky were driving their car on their way to Alaska. They
didn't think much of it when they saw two cyclists repairing their bike on the side of the
road. A bit later, they spotted what they, too, assumed (假定，认为) was a dog running
alongside a man on a bike. As they got closer, they realized that the dog was a wolf. Mac
heard a large vehicle behind him. He pulled in front of it as the wolf was catching up fast,
just a dozen yards away now.

Dear Sir,
I’m Lihua, an exchange student from China. I am writing to report the loss of my wallet.
On 1st November, 2018 I took your flight 753 from China to London. However, upon arrival in
London Heathrow Airport, I’m astonished to find my wallet gone. It’s a black leather one, in which there
is an ID card, 500$ in cash as well as a precious family photo. It, undoubtedly, matters a lot to me.
It’s disturbing to think that my wallet is in the possession of a total stranger. If you find any clue,
please phone my host family at 98765431 immediately.
I would greatly appreciate your timely help.
Yours,
Li Hua

【参考范文】
The car abruptly stopped in front of him. Paul and Becky got out of the car immediately to give the
help. With nothing on the hand, they didn't dare to fight against the wolf. However, they still approached
to the wolf bravely. At the same time, the wolf also noticed them and turned its head back, howling
angrily towards Paul and Becky. Mac then jumped off the bicycle and was ready to fight against the wolf.
Then came the deadlock.
A few minutes later, the other two cyclists arrived. They found the dangerous situation, where three
men circled the wolf. Mac's friends also jumped off their bicycles and joined the fight with the wolf.
More and more cars stopped. Some drivers took out the sticks from the cars, and some took out the
knives, even the guns towards the wolf. In the meanwhile, the wolf might feel the people's threats around,
so it began to step back slowly. Soon, it ran away off the road and disappeared in the distance.
