I decided at 10 that i was going to be a teacher because I had a burning desire for superpowers.
As a boy, i could clearly see some of my teachers had extraordinary powers.
There was an English teacher in fifth grade who could magically transport us to different
worlds every day by telling us stories and reading to us from books we would otherwise never pick
up. This was our secret and fun time because fifth graders were considered too old to have stories
read out to them.
It was even shocking that my teacher could see the invisible. I was one of those who lacked
insight, Yet my teacher would notice me and the unspoken message in her eyes suggested that she
could see me through. She had another superpower and even after four decades, I could still vividly
remember her lessons about the great masters of art and great geographers, expanding our horizons.
She did this even though her major was not art, nor geography. Her lessons went beyond the
textbook I knew I wanted to be one of those all-seeing ones with superpowers that made children
feel safe and valued.
I know being a teacher isn't the easiest or the most financially rewarding of jobs. And there are
occupational risks-your knees can become worn out from years of carrying piles of notebooks up
and down the school staircase, your voice can give in from too much talking. But despite all that,
there are those choosing this cause. To them, teaching is not just a job-it is a science, an art and a
craft, and it demands emotional labour and investment.
All my life, for three decades now, I've gone to work early each day with a spring in my step.
Occasionally, I meet my former students. Their obvious love for me and fond memories of our time
together are my rewards. When I meet others who thirst for superpowers, like the brand new teacher
struggling to perfect her skills with a brave face on, or the one in a remote, rural school travelling 70
kilometers each day just for his pupils, I feel proud to belong to the same group.
（ ）24. What can be inferred about the stories from paragraph 2?
A. They were told in a magic way. B. They were written by the teacher.
C. They contained some students' fun secrets. D. They left the students with happy memories.
（ ）25. Which of the following best describes the English teacher?
A. Ambitious and generous. B Hard-working and wealthy.
C. Caring and modest. D. Well-informed and observant.
（ ）26. What do we know about the author as a teacher?
A. He suffered a lot in his knees and voice.
B. He thought teaching was more than spreading knowledge.
C. He had some ideas of how to be a teacher at a young age.
D. He was rewarded with much money for his devotion at school.
27. What can be concluded about being n teacher from the text?
A. With one thousand times for the peach garden sweet.
B. Teachers lead the door, progress in the individual.
C. In scholarship there is no difference of age.
D. Learning without a teacher is hard to gain.

There are many therapies (疗法) for depression, including medical treatment, psychotherapy
and talk therapy. Having a range of treatment choices is a good idea because no single treatment
works equally well for each of millions of sufferers, Choosing the most suitable treatment is
important to them. Now researchers say a new therapy proven to relieve depression should be added
to the established treatments. It's called nature therapy. “Interacting with nature can have positive
effects on those with depression, ” says Ethan Kross, PhD, an expert who has studied the
nature-depression link.
A little exposure to nature helps all of us get our energy back, and it may have special benefit
for those who are depressed. “It seems that, from our work, the restorative effect of nature seems to
be stronger for individuals with depression,” says Marc Berman, PhD, an assistant professor of
psychology at the University of Chicago. That might be because they feel mentally exhausted, and
being in nature reenergizes them. However, Dr. Berman has a strong warning. “We're not arguing
that interacting with nature should replace clinically proven treatments for depression,” he says,
“Nor should those with clinical depression try to treat themselves.”
However, Berman and others say, interactions with nature could serve as a very effective
supplementary treatment. Compared to adults with depression walking for 50 minutes in an urban
setting, those who took a 50-minute walk in a natural setting were less depressed and had better
memory skills.
Why does nature hold this special effect? Berman says, “In a natural environment. we can
choose to think or not, and this choice is believed to help us rest our brains. You can then pay
attention later, when you need to. “He adds,” It gives people more ability to concentrate, which is
a big problem for those with depression.” Nature provides an effective setting for resting our brains,
unlike urban setting. Even in the most peaceful urban environment, you have to pay attention to such
things as traffic and stoplights.
（ ）28. What can we learn about depression therapies from paragraph 1?
A. They focus on physical activity. B. They pay no attention to interactions.
C. They mainly depend on natural environment. D. They need to be tailored to different
patients.
（ ）29. How does nature benefit patients with depression？
A. By replacing clinic treatment. B. By making them feel energetic.
C. By reminding them to rest in time. D. By covering up their mental problems
（ ）30. What does the underlined word “supplementary” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Essential. B. Traditional. C. Controversial. D. Additional.
（ ）31. What is the text mainly about?
A. An urban setting of restoring energy.
B. The positive role of nature in treating depression.
C. The popularity of using multiple ways to treat diseases.
D. An effective replacement of clinical therapy for depression.

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) included on
December 17, 2020 China's Tai Chi on the Representative List of the Intangible (无形的) Cultural
Heritage of Humanity. The decision was announced during the online meeting of the UNESCO
Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage held from
December 14 to 19 in Kingston, capital of Jamaica.
“Born in the mid-17th century in a small village named Chenjiagou located in Central China's
Henan province, Tai Chi is not only a kind of traditional Wushu integrated with slow movements and
deep breathing, but is also deeply rooted in many areas of Chinese culture, such as medicine and
philosophy,” Zhu Xianghua says, who is the son of the famous Tai Chi master Zhu Tiancai.
Although it has spread to more than 150 countries and regions, attracting more than 100 million
people to practice, the idea that Tai Chi is for the elderly has stopped many young people practicing
the ancient Wushu. They think of it as a slow exercise, which is specially made and better suited for
their grandparents. Instead, many young people are turning to the Indian practice of yoga (瑜伽) to
relieve stress, which was placed on the UNESCO's List in 2019.
In order to promote Tai Chi, joint efforts have been made from individuals and the Chinese
government in the last decades. Xi'an Jiaotong University requires students to learn Tai Chi. Wang
Yunbing, a professor in the university's sports center. stressed that Tai Chi is not only good physical
exercise-researchers from the American College of Rheumatology find that it can help manage
several diseases but is also conned ted to ancient Chinese eivilization. Since 2014, the World Tai Chi
Championships have been held every two years by the International Wushu Federation. It provides a
platform for communication and learning between the Tai Chi masters and Tai Chi lovers around the
globe. In January 2020, Tai Chi became an official event in the 2026 Dakar Youth Olympic Games.
（ ）32. What does Zhu Xianghua say about Tai Chi in paragraph 2?
A. It originated from fast Kung Fu action. B. It was born around the 1750s in a village.
C. It is related to other cultural fields of China. D. It integrates Chinese medicine and western
philosophy.
（ ）33. Why do some young people choose to practice yoga instead of Tai Chi?
A. They think it easier to practice yoga to keep fit.
B. The elderly stop young people practicing Tai Chi.
C. They consider Tai Chi is custom-built for old people.
D. Yoga was included in the world culture earlier than Tai Chi.
（ ）34. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph?
A. To promote contemporary Chinese civilization.
B. To show many efforts made to popularize Tai Chi.
C. To stress the importance of Chinese Tai Chi masters.
D. To advise people to practise Tai Chi to cure diseases.
（ ）35. Which of the following ran he the beat wile for the lost?
A. Tai Chi Steps on the UNESCO's List. B. Tai Chi is Competing against Yoga.
C. Tai Chi Has Regained populate Globally. D. Opinions Greatly Differ on Tai Chi and Yoga.

There was a time when I was very concerned about what other people thought of me, especially
when I was misunderstood and labeled incorrectly. 36 Of course, you need to do
something to let go of that mental suffering if you are stuck in such a similar situation.
● Identify and understand why you care. What makes what other people think of you so
important? If other people's opinions cause you to worry, chances are that you have a tendency to be
pleased. Being favored might be a winning formula for you in the past. 37 But if it
doesn't come as expected, just be yourself.
● Understand you can't control others. The reality is that you cannot control what another
person thinks of you. What most people don't understand is that we often form opinions of others
based on associations we had in the past. And the bottom line is that it's none of your business what
another person thinks of you. 38
●Practice daily self-love and acceptance. Your situation may come from a concept that we are
not as worthy as another person and our needs are not as important as theirs. Recognize you are
equal to every other person. 39 We all have different roles but that does not make anyone
more valuable as a human being.
● Live a life that pleases you. Constant worry about what others think of you must create
considerable stress and will impact your relationships, your health, and your peace of mind.
● 40 You will not need to be concerned with the few people who just don't seem to
understand you. You can live your fulfilling life and they can live theirs.
A. That's his or her private views.
B. Don't take your role to your heart.
C. Everyone deserves respect and admiration.
D. Stay true to your values and do your own thing.
E. That's to say, there is no one above or below you.
F. Certainly, there are advantages to having someone's high regard.
G. Caring too much about their views was energy-consuming and unnecessary.

beautiful avenue that wouldn't be out of place in a stylish magazine.
One person's action showed everyone what could be achieved with a little 53 work
It's easy for us to 54 the environment around us because no one else cares about it.

In many Asian, African and Latin American cultures, 56 (extend) eye contact is
impolite and it is thought of 57 an offensive or a challenge of authority. It 58
(consider) politer to have brief eye contact, especially between people of different 59
(society) status (like a student and a teacher, or a child and his elder relatives). For example, if a
Japanese woman avoids 60 (look) someone in the eye, she is not showing a lack of
interest nor is she showing a lack of confidence. Instead, she is being polite, respectful and
appropriate according to her culture. So in many of these cultures, you should take care of what kind
of eye contact you initiate with those who are your 61 (superior) or in authority over you,
so that you are not thought to be disrespectful or rude. As you can see, it is vital for you 62
(know) what eye contact communicates before you visit a new culture.
Before you travel, you can either look up relevant information in your local public library
63 check out a book about the culture of the country you plan to visit in a bookstore. I earn

An English Debate Contest
第二节（满分 25 分）
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。
One day, I found a wallet on the street. The wallet contained only three dollars and a very old
letter. The envelope was worn and the only thing on it was the return address. I started to open the
letter, hoping to find some information. Then I saw the cate-1990, and the signature-Beatrice. The
letter was written several decades ago.
Then I made every effort and found out that Beatrice was now working in a hospital. I showed
her the letter. The second she saw the letter, she took a deep breath and said, “Young man, this letter
was the last contact I ever had with Henry. He is my only brother. I loved him very much. I was only
16 at the time and my brother is two years younger than me. If you can find him, tell him I'm still
looking for him,” she said and tears began to well up in her eyes. “Mother is waiting for him to
come back home.”
When I walked out of the building with the wallet in my hand, the guard of the building
recognized the wallet, and with his help, I finally found its owner, Henry. I handed the wallet to
Henry and he said, “Yes, that's mine! It must have dropped out of my pocket this afternoon.”
“I read the letter in the hope of finding out who owned the wallet.” I said. The smile on his
face suddenly disappeared. He asked, “You read that letter?” “Not only did I read it, but also
Beatrice read.” I replied. He suddenly became excited. “Beatrice? You know where she is? How is
she? Please tell me,” he begged. “She's fine. She has been looking for you.” I said softly.
He grabbed my hand and said, “Sir, you know she is my only sister in this world. I've always
missed her.”
Henry and I took the elevator ( 电 梯 ) down to Beatrice's room. I walked over to her.
“Beatrice,” I said softly, pointing to Henry, who was waiting with me in the doorway. “Do you
know the man?”
注意：
1．续写词数应为 150 左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Beatrice adjusted her glasses, looked for a moment, but didn't say a word．
About three weeks later I got a call at my office from Beatrice．
