Great Activities for Nature Lovers
Hiking
One of these easiest and most accessible ways to get close to nature is by setting out on a good old-fashioned hike. Hiking generally doesn’t require any fancy equipment or special skills, just a piece of map and a thirst for adventure. This activity can be as relaxing as you make it.
Backcountry Camping
Why limit yourself to just a day hike when you can have a full weekend (or longer) adventure?
Backcountry camping involves packing your tent, sleeping gear, food and water on your back to set up camp in a remote location. If you’re an experienced hiker and camper, this is an excellent way to test your survival skills and explore the wilderness.
Mountain and Road Biking
Unlike long hikes through the woods and camping, biking allows you to cover more ground and travel farther in nature. Mountain biking typically involves riding up and down steep slopes, between trees, and over rocks. If this sounds too intense or your tires aren’t suited for rugged terrain (崎岖的地带), consider taking a road bike on paved trails through forest preserves or along country road.
Gardening
Contrary to popular belief, you don’t have to travel beyond your own backyard to experience the beauty
of nature every day. If your personality is less adventurous or your mobility restricted, consider planting a garden to grow your own vegetables, fruits, herbs, or flowers. There’s something really satisfying about mixing up a salad with fresh ingredients you grew yourself. One of the best parts about spending time in nature is that it doesn’t have to break your budget and anyone can do it.
21. What does hiking need for hikers?
A. A world map. B. A strong desire.
C. Practical skills. D. Necessary equipment.
22. Where will you go to show your survival potential in the wild?
A. To a backyard. B. To a forest. C. To a distant place. D. To a mountain.
23. Which of the following can take you to travel farthest?
A. Hiking. B. Backcountry Camping.
C. Gardening. D. Mountain and Road Biking.

China is one of the first countries to develop a medical culture. In comparison with Western methods, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) adopts a vastly different approach. For thousands of years, Chinese people have accumulated rich experience in fighting all sorts of diseases, therefore forming a unique medical theory under the guidance of ancient Chinese philosophies (哲学).
The key behind TCM is that the human body’s life is the consequence (结果) of the balance between Yin and Yang. Yang functions to safeguard us against outer harm, and Yin is the inner base to store and provide energy. When the balance between the two aspects is disturbed, people fall ill.
One of the traditional techniques of TCM, acupuncture (针刺疗法) means insertion of
needles into superficial (表面的) structures of the body—usually at acupoints (穴位)—to restore the Yin Yang balance. It is often accompanied by moxibustion (艾灸疗法), which involves burning mugwort on or near the skin at an acupoint.
The first known text that clearly talks about something like acupuncture and moxibustion as it is practiced today is The Yellow Emperor’s Inner Canon. It is the earliest and most important written work of TCM and is considered the basic and most representative medical text in China.
Acupuncture and moxibustion have aroused the interest of international medical science circles. And TCM is gradually gaining worldwide recognition. The WHO issued a document in 2002 that appealed to more than 180 countries to adopt TCM as an alternative in their medical policies. In 2010, acupuncture and moxibustion of traditional Chinese medicine were added to the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by the UNESCO. Presently, TCM has been back in the news for its effectiveness in improving the cure rate of the COVID-19 since its outbreak in January 2020.
24. What is the key feature of TCM?
A. It adopts different medical approaches.
B. It’s based on ancient Chinese philosophies.
C. It helps to restore body’s self-balance.
D. It’s gained experience through rich practice.
25. What can we learn about The Yellow Emperor’s Inner Canon from the text?
A. It distinguishes acupuncture from moxibustion.
B. It’s a foundation of world medical research.
C. It stresses the importance of using acupoints.
D. It greatly contributes to the development of TCM.
26. Why does the writer write this text?
A. To review the development of TCM. B. To introduce TCM to the world.
C. To tell TCM and Western medicine apart. D. To argue for TCM in fighting COVID-19.
27. What might be talked about in the paragraph following the text?
A. How TCM helps in the current situation. B. Why TCM is gaining popularity.
C. Why TCM gets recognition from WHO. D. How other countries adopt TCM.
C
It used to be mostly the military that used small, unpiloted aircraft, called “drones”. The little planes were very costly. But as they have dropped in price more people have begun to use them. Rescue workers and farmers are among the new users.
The fast rate of the development of computer technology, image sensing devices, satellite navigation (卫星导航) and smartphones has led to lower-priced drones. Researchers and developers have learned how to build smaller and less-costly drones. Moviemakers are using drones to film from the sky. Historians use them when they explore ancient buildings. Rescue workers use them to look for people. And now farmers are using them to monitor their crops.
Romain Faroux is a French businessman who starts companies. His father was a farmer. He believed drones could help farmers. He helped create a company that developed a small drone that could be controlled by people on the ground. They called it “Agridrone”. It uses a special “optical sensor (光学传感器)” to examine crops. The technology used is similar to that used by smartphones—except it has wings. A computer program directs the drone to fly over the crops. The sensor on the drone records four different-colored “bands”of sunlight that are reflected off the crops.
Jean-Baptiste Bruggeman is a farmer. He says the drone flies over his crops at different times of the season. This provides a lot of information about his crops. The drone pictures show him the exact amount of fertilizer the crops need. It also shows exactly where the fertilizer is needed.
Romain Faroux says farmers use information collected by the Agridrone to place fertilizer only in areas where it is needed. This saves money and reduces pollution. Before they used the drones, farmers would put the same amount of fertilizer everywhere. Drones also save time because farmers can examine up to three hectare (公顷) in about a minute.
28. Why do rescue workers and farmers begin to use drones?
A. Drones can monitor their cattle. B. Drones’ prices have dropped.
C. Drones can help them get more business. D. Drones’ sizes become smaller.
29. What can the drones developed by Romain Farour’s company do?
A. Explore ancient buildings. B. Put fertilizer on the crops.
C. Help farmers examine their crops. D. Help rescue workers look for people.
30. What can the sensor on the drone do?
A. Help the sunlight shine on the crops.
B. Direct the plane to fly over the crops.
C. Examine the different colors of the crops.
D. Record the sunlight reflected off the crops.
31. According to the text, the use of the drone is __________.
A. environment-friendly B wasteful C costly D. safe
D
Across Britain, burnt toast will be served to mothers in bed this morning as older sons and daughters rush to deliver their supermarket bunches of flowers. But, according to a new study, we should be attaching greater importance to motherhood all year.
Mothers have long known that their home workload was just as heavy as paid work. Now, the new study has shown that if they were paid for their parental labors, they would earn as much as￡172,000 a year.
The study looked at the range of jobs mothers do, as well as the hours they are working, to determine the figure. This would make their yearly income ￡30, 000 more than the Prime Minister earns.
By analyzing the numbers, it found the average mother works 119 hours a week, 40 of which would usually be paid at a standard rate and 79 hours as overtime. After questioning 1,000 mothers with children under 18, it found that, on most days, mums started their routine work at 7 am and finished at around 11pm.
To calculate just how much mothers would earn from that labor, it suggested some of the roles that mums could take on, including housekeeper, part-time lawyer, personal trainer and entertainer. Being a part-time lawyer, at ￡48.98 an hour, would prove to be the most profitable of the “mum jobs”, with psychologist (心理学家) a close second.
It also asked mothers about the challenges they face, with 80 percent making emotional demand as the hardest thing about motherhood.
Over a third of mums felt they needed more training and around half said they missed going out with friends.
The study shows mothers matter all year long and not just on Mother’s Day. The emotional, physical and mental energy mothers devote to their children can be never-ending, but children are also sources of great joy and happiness. Investing (投入) in time for parenting and raising relationships is money well spent.
32. How much would a mother earn a year if working as the Prime Minister?
A.￡30,000. B.￡142,000. C.￡172,000. D.￡202,000.
33. The biggest challenge for most mothers is from __________.
A. emotional demand B. low pay for work
C. heavy workload D. lack of training
34. What is stressed in the last paragraph?
A. Mothers’ importance shows in family all year long.
B. The sacrifices mothers make are huge but worthwhile.
C. Mothers’ devotion to children can hardly be calculated.
D. Investing time in parenting would bring a financial return.
35. What can we conclude from the study?
A. Mothers’ working hours should be largely reduced.
B. Mothers should balance their time for work and rest.
C. Mothers’ labor is of a higher value than it is realized.
D. Mothers should be freed from housework for social life.
第节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。选项中有两项为
多余选项。
Misinformation can spread through phone texts and social media as fast as a virus, sometimes even faster. 36 . Here are some of the most effective steps to identify and stop it.
Check the source
37 . It is why misinformation travels fast on social media, where everyone says he heard it from a friend of a friend. Be careful of such hear-says and refer to such reliable sources as government agencies or trusted newspaper websites before it can be taken seriously. Also, be careful of information from unknown or little-known groups or news organizations.
38
Anyone searching for true information needs to act a little like a reporter. Remember there is a difference between news and stories. News should be supported by evidence to be dependable. 39 . Pictures are said to be worth a thousand words. But, even photographs can be edited and changed. Even untouched images can be false. For example, old images can be presented as new. Again, it helps to look for the source. Google’s image search can help find where a photo came from.
Do not immediately repost what you see
A 2018 Twitter study found that false news travels faster than real news, often much faster. That is because these stories often use language designed to create strong emotional reaction. 40 . It is also found that misinformation spreads quickly because people retwitte stories
based on headlines. So read the whole story, investigate the source and consider carefully before reposting to prevent the spread of false information.
A. Act like a journalist
B. How to search for true information
C. Also be careful that even images can lie
D. How can we separate what is true and what is not
E. They always seek to connect with public fear or anger
F. Emotional reaction plays no part when people post information
G. Human nature makes us more likely to believe things our friends tell us

第二节 读后续写（满分25分）
阅读下面材料，根据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。
When I was ten years old, I lived with my family in a small house in rural South Jersey. I often accompanied my mother to the A&P to buy groceries. Without a car, we walked, and I would help her carry the bags.
My mother had to shop very carefully, as she was a waitress, and her salary barely sustained (勉强维持) us. One day, while she was weighing prices, a promotional display for the World Book Encyclopedia (百科全书) caught my eye. The volumes were beautifully cream-colored. Volume I was ninety-nine cents with a ten-dollar purchase.
All I could think of while shopping was the book. I stood at the register (收银台) with my mother,
holding my breath as the cashier rang up the items. It came to over eleven dollars. My mother produced a five, some singles, and a handful of change. As she was counting out the money, I somehow found the courage to ask for the encyclopedia. “Could we get one?” I said, showing her the display. “It’s only ninety-nine cents.”
I did not understand my mother’s increasing anxiety; she did not have enough change and had to sacrifice a large can of peas to pay the amount, “Not now, Patricia,” she said sternly. “Today is not a good day.” I packed the groceries and followed her home, upset.
The next Saturday, my mother gave me a dollar and sent me to the A&P alone. Two quarts of milk and a loaf of bread—that’s what a dollar in 1957. I went straight to the World Book display. There was only one first volume left, which I placed in my cart (购物车). I didn’t need a cart, but took one so I could read as I went up and down the aisles. A lot of time went by and I knew I had to leave, but I couldn’t bear to part with the book. With no detective in sight, I, impulsively (冲动地), put it inside my shirt and zipped (扣上拉链) up my jacket. I was a tall, skinny kid, and I am certain the shape of the book was obvious.

My heart beating rapidly, I headed for the register._________________________________

第一节
Dear Sir or Madam，
I am pleased to learn about your appeal to spend a Saturday without using smart phones. I’m
very glad to join in the activity. Smart phones are playing an important role nowadays, making it
easier for us to communicate and deal with work. But at the same time, we seem to be losing the
skills of face-to-face communication.
I will present my plans for this Saturday here. After getting up, I would like to invite my friends to go for a morning run in the park. It is a good idea to help my parents prepare a big meal at noon, after which my family will spend the whole afternoon enjoying tine latest movie together. In the evening, we will stay home, reading books.
It is really a meaningful activity, so I am eager to share it with my classmates.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
Paragraph 1:
My heart beating rapidly, I headed for the register. I paid the dollar for the three items and was about to leave when I felt a heavy tap on my shoulder. It was a big detective. “You stole something. You will be searched.” he announced. Horrified, I slid the book out from inside the shirt and handed it over. “An encyclopedia?” he asked, somewhat surprised. “Yes,” I whispered, trembling. “Why didn’t you ask your parents to purchase it?” “I did, but they didn’t have the money.” With a sigh, he made me promise to tell my parents about my wrongdoing and then let me leave.
Paragraph 2:
Back home, I told my mother what I had promised the detective. Unexpectedly, she didn’t explode as usual. She fell silent, looking extremely anxious. Consumed with guilt, I gathered my courage, apologized and promised that it would never happen again. “All will be OK!” said my mother, wrapping me in her arms. Then she told me that she would go to the A&P to tell the detective I had admitted and that I should play outside. Hours later, when I was back home, I noticed a bag with my name on it. I opened it and packed inside was the World Book Encyclopedia, volume I.
