Solly is our security guard. He moved in the day after we did. He was light brown, and was very thin and serious. Solly
hadn't always been so thin. He’d been out of work for a year, supporting an extended family.
“ My wife says I must buy new clothes，”he said. “My church clothes are falling off me. But I told her. Don' t worry. I'll get
fat again. Now I have a job." This news kept our family buzzing (低声谈话） through quite a few meal times. My kids announced
they were going to bake for him every day. And so every evening my husband and children began delivering food to Solly.
Just outside our gate, all down Jabu Ndlovu Street, as the day begins to fade, security guards take their places. They’re
cheerful. And they sleep right through their shifts. No one expects a security guard to stay awake. That’s why the whole street
knew Solly. He not only stayed awake, but also walked around to check the block, picked up litter, and knocked on doors and
asked residents to turn their music down.
Then one night, a car ran into a cyclist. Solly saw the crash. He saw the driver drive away. For two hours, Solly helped the
rider, the police, and the ambulance personnel. The next day, some residents complained: Solly wasn't at the gate last night. Solly
wasn’t doing his job. After the whole story came out, Solly kept his job.
After a month, Solly was not getting any fatter. He lived far from the city. His taxi ride to work each day cost him one-third
of his salary, so we got him a used bike. But he wouldn’t take it until he saved the money. A few weeks later, he fetched the bike,
“My wife thinks I'm joking a bike for this price”, he said with a smile on his face. "I ll ride home and surprise her." I wondered
if his wife would smile too.
24. Why did Solly’s wife think he needed new clothes?
A. His clothes didn't suit him any more. B. He was getting fatter and fatter.
C. His clothes were shabby. D. He didn’t like his old clothes any more.
25. What made Solly different from other guards?
A. His skin color. B. His lovable character.
C. His friendly manner. D. His hard work.
26. When did the author see Solly smile?
A. After she told him a joke. B. When she gave him a free bike.
C. After he got a cheap bike. D. When he knew he’d keep his job.
27. Which word can best describe the author’s family?
A. Intelligent B. Kind-hearted C. Courageous D. Strong-minded
C
After years of heated debate, gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park. Fourteen wolves were caught in
Canada and transported to the park. By last year，the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than 170 wolves.
Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States, but they were
gradually displaced by human development. By the 1920s，wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area. They
went farther north into the deep forests of Canada，where there were fewer humans around.
The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results. Deer and elk populatios-major food sources for the wolf-
grew rapidly. These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation (植 被 ), which reduced plant diversity in the park. In the
absence of wolves, coyote populations also grew quickly. The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park's red foxes, and
completely drove away the park's beavers.
As early as 1966, biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park. The hoped that
wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems. Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves
would kill their farm animals or pets.
The government spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolves. The U.S Fish and Wildlife Service
carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone. Today, the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting
in at Yellowstone. Elk, deer, and coyote populations are down, while beavers have made a comeback.The Yellowstone wolf
project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.
28.What is the text mainly about?
A. Wildlife research in the United States. B. Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area.
C. The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park. D. The conflict between farmers and gray wolves.
29.What does the underlined word "displaced" in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Tested. B. Separated.
C. Forced out. D. Tracked down.
30.What did the disappearance of gray wolves bring about?
A. Damage to local ecology. B. A decline in the park's income.
C. Preservation of vegetation. D. An increase in the variety of animals.
31. What is the author's attitude towards the Yellowstone wolf project?
A. Doubtful. B. Positive.
C. Disapproving. D. Uncaring.
D
For years now, economists have predicted a gradual move to what is called a “cashless society”. Most payments are already
made by putting a plastic card into a machine and entering a PIN code（个人密码), or by simply waving the card in front of the
machine. But is a “cashless society” something we should look forward to?
Well, for one thing cash is expensive. We often pay fees when we use cash machines -people in the UK together pay almost
$6 million a month in cash-machine fees. Cash also spreads disease. Dr Peter Ender, who carried out a study looking at the
bacteria on one-dollar bills, claims that"paper money is usually full of bacteria and a dollar bill could, theoretically, be the magic
carpet it rides on from one host to another. And of course, there’s always a record of digital money, so it makes it harder for
people to steal it.第 3 页 共 4 页
However, some psychologists argue that waving your card in front of a machine doesn’t give us a real sense of paying.
Likewise, when we make one click with our mouse when shopping online, it’s easy to forget that the credit card bill will arrive at
the end of the month. Basically, with a credit card, we don't feel the"pain of paying”. In a cashless society, we tend to buy more
than we need to, because it’s easier to spend and the consequences of our spending are more remote from us.
And it's certainly still possible and even easier to cheat and steal in a cashless society. In a psychological test, people were
twice as likely not to forgo a dishonest digital payment as a dishonest cash payment. Once again, psychologists suggest that the
sense of being remote from payment in a cashless society increased the likelihood of dishonesty.
handle hitting a brick wall，it will get easier to deal with the next time around．
A. Ask for help．
B. Don't give up．
C. No one wants to live with regrets．
D. No one can do everything all at once．
While we might laugh at the idea of our grandparents with money hidden under the mattres（s 床垫）, maybe the joke is on us. E. So stop thinking about it，and just do it．
Without doubt，it is a world where we feel distanced from the consequences of the purchases we make. So perhaps we’re more
efficient in our cashless society, but are we any happier?
32. What can we infer from Dr. Peter Ender’s claim?
A. Cash is full of magic. B. Cash is irreplaceable.
C. Cash is extremely dirty. D. Cash is expensive to produce.
33. What will happen when people use credit cards according to psychologists?
A. They will become more honest. B. They will spend more unwisely.
C. They will be in pain on the bill's arrival. D. They will feel distanced from their real life.
34. What does the underlined word “forgo” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Make B. Afford C. Ignore D .Reject
35. What does the text mainly discuss?
A. What can cash bring to us? B. Is it time to give up on cash?
C. Is it possible to keep our cash safe? D. Why do we live in a cashless society?

Do you ever feel like you've got a great idea，one that makes you feel incredibly inspired and want to change the world?
36 Fortunately, you’re not alone． Because we'll be like this throughout our life ． So take a deep breath ， and try these
techniques：
● Start small.
So often，we feel the need to take great leaps．Every day needs to be filled with productivity．But we reach a point where we get
overwhelmed by all the things we have to do．Break it down． 37 Take a baby step．Once you get going，it will be harder to
stop．
● Do the thing you're afraid of．
Often when we get overwhelmed，it's because the task ahead is daunting（吓人的）．There'sno easy way around it．The more we
think about it，the more frightened we feel． 38 Most of the time，things are never as bad as we imagined them in our minds．
● 39
The biggest misunderstanding is that we have to do everything on our own． But that's simply not true． Success never comes
without support．So reach out．Call a friend．Ask for advice．Your community will be more than happy to help，and you'll feel
better． 40 The harder you work for something you believe in，the better you will feel about it．And once you learn how to
F. Remember that if it's not easy，it probably means it's worth it．
G. But then once you start working on your idea，you start doubting yourself．

Dear headmaster,
阅读下面材料，在空白处填人适当的内容(1 个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
Life pressure can be big enough, so we need to be surrounded by warm phrases, or even some blind 61
(confident). Recently, a new trend--seeking praise from strangers--has gone popular on social media among China’s young people.
Many chat groups 62 (form) to show kindness and support to members. These “in-need-of-praise” chat groups
are 63 reflection of Chinese culture where 64 (open) seeking and giving praise is uncommon,
65 (lead) many people to hide their true emotions even from their families. For young people, gaining
recognition from peers is more important than getting approval from older generations. They can feel a sense of belonging and
gain encouragement, 66 is beneficial to their mental health. As long as people’s praise doesn’t sound 67
(sincere), we are likely to welcome it. Being richly recognized for what we do or who we are just feels good.
Most of us like praises, 68 they can raise our spirits, warm our hearts and decrease fears and self-doubt.
However,anyone giving or receiving praise in such groups should be 69 （caution）. Such praises come at a cost.
And the biggest risk is the constant emphasis on the “false self”, whichmakes 70 harder to see the “true self”.

Dear headmaster,
I am Lihua, a student from middle school. Well acquainted that you are collecting suggestion
regarding fighting against disease. Deeply concerned with it, I am writing to convey my personal
opinions.
With the new term drawing near, it's time we took actions. First, to ensure the sanitation and
safety of public places in our school, especially a boarding one, it will make an enormous
difference if our school sheds light on sterilizing classrooms, dorms and canteens once a day.
Besides, in terms of hygiene, it is highly recommended that everyone wear facial masks in the
classroom during the first week of school in order to cut off the transmission of the virus.
Furthermore, abundant time for sports and rest is expected to be guaranteed, so as to equip
ourselves with a strong immunity. Under no circumstances should we turn a blind eye to building
up our body. Last but not lest, when it comes to scheduling, it is worth of making proper use of
Saturday mornings to make up for the delayed lessons. Also, considering the current situation, it
will help if the amount of homework is reduced accordingly, thus making it easier for us to
enhance the efficiency of learning. Only when we make concerted efforts in confronting the
erupted diseases hear and soul can we conquer the formidable challenges of saving our homeland.
I would really appreciate it if you take my suggestions into favourable consideration.
