There are different types of money-saving apps, and all of them work in different ways. Here
are four of the best apps that can help you save much money.
Capital One Shopping
Capital One Shopping can compare prices automatically as you shop online. As you add items
to your cart at an online retailer, this app will search the web for better deals and coupon(优惠券)
codes. You can follow the links to other retailers offering a better price and use the available codes to
save. You can even use this app while shopping at brick-and-mortar(实体店)stores.
Paribus
There is nothing more upsetting than buying something and then seeing it for sale at a lower price
a few days later. Wouldn't it be nice to get that money back? Now you can. Paribus helps you get
money back by tracking your purchases from major stores and negotiating refunds. It also helps you
get compensated for late deliveries and makes sure you don't leave it too late to return anything you
bought.
Qapital
By setting goals and rules, Qapital helps you make the most of your money and to save wisely.
There's a Payday Divvy feature that divides up your commitments between spending and saving.
You'll also be able to take part in “Money Missions”, which are fun challenges designed to give you
insight into smart financial investments. If you want to invest too, you can use Qapital's pre-built
portfolios, which are tailor-made to the timeline and amount you input.
Digit
If you can't figure out how much you can afford to save, Digit will analyze your spending habits
and allocate a certain amount to your savings. If the app knows you have spare money to save, then it
will be moved automatically, and if you don't, it will stop, so there's no risk of being left with no cash
for the basics. You can sign up for a free trial for a month, and after that, the monthly price is $ 5.

After graduating as a graphic design major in 2018, Chen Minlin didn't hunt for a job that fits it,
but became a trekker(远足者)。
“Completing different trekking routes is like collecting cards in childhood-a lot of fun,” the 24-
year-old told China Daily.
Like Chen, more young people are going on journeys to rediscover the simple and beneficial joys
of walking. According to Youxiake,a Hangzhou-based tour operator, more than 140,000 travelers
signed up for trekking trips from May 1 to Oct 31. This represents a 9. 3 percent increase over the
same period last year.
For most trekkers, exploring nature by foot can help them keep fit. Hiking or trekking in nature
enables them to breathe fresh air, gives the whole body a workout and keeps them away from the
crowds in urban public places, making for a tranquil experience.
“I felt that exposure to nature and physical exhaustion helped me counteract the negative effects
of my distress(痛苦)at that time,” Zhang Peng,33, co-founder of Beijing Hiking Club,said. Trekking
“is a liberating experience to enjoy the tranquility in the wilderness. And the exhausting climb makes
me feel the vigor(活力) of life.”
Trekking has, indeed, been integrated into his lifestyle. With great passion, Zhang has gone on
many classic routes across the country. The longest trail he's ever finished was 240 kilometers.
With poor internet access in the wild, it encourages people to chat and interact with one another
on the long walks along the trails. Zhang enjoys the social interaction, and the friendships it brings
about.
For Liu Yanli, also a trekker, what she cherishes most is that the activity brings her mental
strength.
Until this year, her life had always run smoothly and lacked hardship. She craved the sense of
achievement that can be felt after overcoming the difficulties offered by trekking.
Ever since 2013, she's trekked in many countries, including Nepal, Japan, Greece, New Zealand,
Italy and Jordan. In one situation, she felt she was at the point of collapsing, but she carried on. “I was
impressed and moved by my willpower. I'd never experienced that feeling in my daily life,” Liu said.
It's perhaps this unusual feeling that appeals to more youths. “Each time when I came back from
a trip,the contrast between the harsh conditions in the wild and my cozy home helps to strengthen my
happiness in everyday life,” Liu added.
24. Why is Chen Minlin's experience mentioned in the beginning of the text?
A. To suggest a different graduation celebration.
B. To recommend some popular trekking routes.
C. To show the popularity and appeal of trekking.
D. To inform the readers of the features of trekking.
25. What does the underlined word “counteract” in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Get rid of. B. Think of. C.Become aware of. D. Take advantage of.
26. What do paragraphs 4-11 talk about?
A. Opposite views toward trekking.
B. The importance of exploring nature.
C. The benefits of trekking to different people.
D. A comparison of some people's trekking trips.
27. What about trekking fascinates Liu Yanli most?
A. It allows her to meet different people. B. It gives her a strong sense of achievement.
C. It enables her to stay in shape. D. It is a good way for her to release stress.
C
In a world first,scientists have cloned a rare, endangered Przewalski's horse named Kurt at San
Diego zoo in the US. Little Kurt looks like any other baby horse as he plays happily in his pen(围栏).
He isn't afraid to kick or head butt anyone who gets in his way and when he's hungry, dashes over to
his mother for milk.
Scientists have cloned nearly two dozen kinds of mammals. The first was Dolly the sheep in the
UK in 1996. Other species include dogs, cats, pigs, cows and polo ponies and, in China in 2018, a
monkey.
The zoo sees Kurt's birth as a milestone in efforts to restore the population of the horse also
known as the Asiatic Wild Horse or Mongolian Wild Horse. The small animals ( they stand only about
1.2m to 1.5m tall) are believed extinct in the wild and number only about 2,000 in zoos and wildlife
habitats. Their limited gene pool puts them at a reproductive disadvantage.
“This horse is expected to be one of the most genetically important individuals of his species,”
Bob Wiese,chief life sciences officer at San Diego Zoo Global, which operates the zoo, said in a
statement. “We are hopeful that he will bring back genetic variation important for the future of the
Przewalski's horse population. ”
Although only 2 months old Kurt's birth was made possible in 1980 when cells were taken from a
5-year-old male horse and put in deep freeze at San Diego's Frozen Zoo facility. His father died in
1998.
Kurt was named for Kurt Benirschke, who played a key role in founding the Frozen Zoo.
“A central belief of the Frozen Zoo, when it was established by Dr Benirschke, was that it would
be used for purposes not possible at the time. ” said Oliver Ryder, director of genetics at San Diego
Zoo Global.
Kurt was born at a veterinary(兽医的) facility in Texas,US,where he'll continue to live with his
mother for most likely another year. Eventually he'll become part of the zoo's Przewalski's horse
population, where it's hoped someday he'll become a father himself.
28. According to the passage, many mammals have been cloned except
A. Przewalski's horses
B. polar bears
C.monkeys
D. sheep
29. Why does the zoo see Kurt's birth as a milestone?
A. Because it will be the first one to live in the wild.
B. Because it is the only cloned one close to extinction.
C. Because it's expected to become the lead horse.
D. Because it may help recover the genetic variation.
30. What can we learn about Kurt from the text?
A. He behaved differently from others when he was young.
B. He doesn't have a father as a cloned one in the laboratory.
C. The cells for cloning have been preserved for over 40 years.
D. Its name comes from the discoverer of the Przewalski's horse.
31. What was the Frozen Zoo set up for?
A. Protecting endangered animals that may be hard to save for the moment.
B. Providing necessary facilities to help people clone endangered animals.
C. Encouraging people to insist on their purposes that may hard to achieve.
D.Forming a central belief that it would be useful someday in the near future.
D
Along Utah's Highway 68 in the small community of Elberta, Utah stands an industrial dome(圆
屋顶). Inside is a futuristic collection of shelves, towering 25 feet tall. The dome is home to a
vertical farm, which doesn't grow food for humans but for cows.
Three years ago, Lance Bateman and his three brothers agreed to be part of a pilot project that
would use vertical farming to grow and feed the cows for their dairy and beef farm, Bateman Mosida
Farms. Grov Technologies, an agriculture tech company in Vineyard, Utah, partnered with Batemans
on the project and developed all the equipment for the vertical farm.
The brothers are now using six towers to pump out fresh wheatgrass for their herd of 20,000
cows 365 days a year. The vertical farm takes up about 857 square feet of space, but it does the work
that would be required on 35 to 50 acres of land, according to Grov Technologies. Supporters claim
vertical farms use 95% less water than in conventional field farming. A full harvest cycle in the
Bateman's farm takes anywhere from five to seven days, starting with a tray of seeds that is carried to
the top of the tower and rotated on wheels through the entire structure.
Bateman says each tower provides about 2,800 pounds of feed each day, which is only about two
percent of what his cows eat in a day. His farm grows feed conventionally when it can and buys the
rest. The farm is also planning to install four more towers within the next six weeks.
According to Bateman,studies conducted by Grov Technologies in 2019 found that, when the
cows were fed 12-15% of the vertical farm's feed in their diets, they produced more milk or at the
same pace while eating less feed overall, ultimately improving the farm's bottom line.
“A farm is an expensive venture, but I know with this facility, we can compete, especially with
different climate scenarios( 说 明 ) across the world,”he says. “I believe this will make farming
available in areas where it hasn't been able to happen. ”
32. What's the purpose of the writer by writing the second paragraph?
A. To describe how the vertical farm works.
B. To value the history of the vertical farm.
C. To show the structure of the vertical farm.
D. To explain how the vertical farm came into being.
33. What can we learn about the vertical farm according to the passage?
A. It has replaced conventional farming.
B. It needs more acres of land to work.
C. It is water-conserving and efficient.
D. It is relatively easy to maintain.
34. How much feed is needed daily for all the cows on the farm?
A. 70,000 pounds. B. 72,800 pounds. C. 140,000 pounds. D. 142,800 pounds.
35. What is mainly implied in Bateman's words in the last paragraph?
A.Vertical farming has a promising future.
B. Vertical farming remains to be improved.
C. Competition is usually an expensive venture.
D. Farming won't happen with climate scenarios.

Mixing murals, sculpture and calligraphy, grotto( 石 窟 ) temples are historical treasures of
ancient Chinese arts, values and spirits. Thousands of people flock to grotto temples each year. 36
In October,the National Cultural Heritage Administration and the Ministry of Culture and
Tourism issued a notice, urging protection of China's grotto temples. Grotto temple workers are
required to do research and determine how many daily visitors they can safely handle.37 Visitors are
encouraged to visit at different time periods or have virtual experiences related to the cultural heritage
sites. These measures are aimed at preserving these relics, as both human and environmental factors
have caused harm.
Tourists often touch the sculptures, leading to changes in the surface and color of the figures
overtime.38 And even the most well-behaved tourists can unknowingly cause harm to the relics. Over
many centuries, the ancient rocks that make up these grottoes slowly corrode(腐蚀)due to the acid
content of air,water and microorganisms. 39 According to a study by the China University of
Geosciences,the carbon dioxide that visitors breathe out has made the air more acid. At the Mogao
Grottoes in Gansu, researchers also found that microorganisms brought in unintentionally by visitors
themselves have also led to changes in color in murals.
“40 Seeing the grottoes in depth, it will help people better understand Chinese philosophy and
humanities from a historical perspective. ” Lu Ji-wen, deputy director of the Yungang Grottoes Re-
search Academy,told China News.
A.Preserving these relics is important.
B. Yet these relics are threatened by visitors.
C. The new rule received support from visitors.
D. The light from cameras can also damage the relics.
E. The visitors' number should be controlled based on this research.
F. But when the grottoes are open to the public, the process speeds up.
G. Efforts should also go into advertising the beauty of grotto temples.

One dark night during the summer holidays, I walked over to my friend Jeremy's house to stay
over. We were going to have a movie marathon of our favorite sci-fi adventure film series and stay up
late with some snacks and drinks. I had not been to his house before because he had only recently
moved, so I asked him to text me over his new address: 64 Cherry Tree Road.
Jeremy's new street was a nice part of town, lined with tall trees and most of the houses had a
hedge or fence at the front. Some of the houses had their numbers on the gate, some on the house, and
some didn't seem to have a number at all. It had started to cloud over as I left my house, and as I
turned on to his road, it began to rain. As the rain got heavier, I rushed to find number sixty-four and
eventually found it ... or so I thought. I walked past number 62, so assumed it was the next one, which
appeared to have no number. You see, usually the odd numbers are on one side of the street, the even
numbers on the other.
I walked quickly up the driveway to the front door. It was very dark too and there were no lights
on inside the house, which did seem strange. However, I was getting drenched(湿透的)and wanted
to get inside! I rang the bell, but nobody came, so I rang and knocked again. Then I noticed there was
house number after all. A ridiculous small one that said 63. There was a sudden thud(呯的一声)
inside the apparently empty house, and a moment later the front door opened violently.
A hooded(戴兜帽的) man with a beard and blue glasses hurried past me and ran into the street.
There was a shout from inside: “Wait for me, Rob!!” Another man rushed out, but he dropped what he
was carrying and tripped on the doorstep. The other man shouted from the road “C'mon, Kev!!” he
picked himself up and looked at me before racing after his friend.

with your information.” Jeremy told the officer the owners of the house were on holiday and gave
him a phone number. When the officer left, I told Jeremy about the mistake with the door

41-45 BCADC
46-50 BADAD
51-55 CACBD
这篇完形主要讲的一个孩子遭遇了种族歧视,经历了内心挣扎后来释怀的故事,属于讲述
种族歧视的文章。文章本身理解起来不难,所考察的固定搭配以及词义辨析大多比较简
单,但有不少熟词僻义或比喻,可能对部分考生来说比较困难,整体属于难度较大的完
形,可能的难题是 44,50,53。
详细解析:
第 41 题 根据前面的八岁以及后面说是去一个令人兴奋的离家很远的地方可
知,这里是我和任何儿童一样顽皮和吵闹,因此选 noisy。
第 42 题 根据前面说的 rough and noisy 可知,这里是老师严肃地叫我待在一
个地方,因此是 stay。
第 43 题 此题有一定难度,分析句子成分可知这里要填的词不是副词,是连
词,分析句意可知填 immediately 最合适,表示“一……就……”,属于熟词
僻义,“为了确保我不会在她眼睛一看别的地方的时候就跑到封闭的展览区
域,她强迫我……。”
第 44 题 根据前面说这个女孩安静温和可知,应该是说她是老师的宠儿,因
此选 D,pet 不仅能表示宠物,也能表示宠儿,属于熟词僻义。
第 45 题 固定搭配 take a turn for the better/worse 表示情况变得更好或更坏,
这里是有同学嘲笑我,情况变得更坏了。
第 46 题 根据前面说老师让我牵着那个女孩的手防止我逃跑可知,这里是我
们的手紧扣在一起,因此是 interlocked。
第 47 题 前面的 worse,以及后面同学说的话可知,这里是同学责备地指着
我们的手说……,因此选 accusingly。
第 48 题 这题和 47 题是一起选的,根据文章一开头就说 I was not white,以
及下文我回家不停地想洗掉深色污点可以猜出,这里作者是黑人,而牵的女
生是白人,同学责备说那个女生的手已经变黑了,(因为和黑人牵手),因
此选 black。
第 49 题 根据前面我遭到了种族歧视,在洗澡的时候哭可知,这里是我买的
美容用品并没能洗掉我皮肤上的厚厚的深色污点,即无法洗掉我的肤色,因
此是 fail to do,选 failed。
第 50 题 valley 本身指山谷,这里类似于中文中的“鸿沟”,我不得不面对我
认为的我的身份和我实际上的身份之间的巨大差别,此处是运用了暗喻。根
据排除法也可选出 D,A 是平衡,B 是入口,C 是选择,都不对,都不符合
此处作者在因自己的黑人身份而挣扎。
第 51 题 根据前面的作者因种族歧视而很痛苦可知,此处是种族成了作者整
个青春期都挣扎的事物,struggle with 表示与……作斗争。这里的 race 是指
种族。
第 52 题 根据后面说是我受教育中最重要的阶段可知,应该选 university,
此处只有 A 表示受教育的阶段。
第 53 题 根据 while 表轻微转折,而前半句是 struggles 可知,后半句应该是
表积极意义的,并且这里所填词是和 source 直接对应的,结合后面的短语,
排除法选出 location,“种族也是我们的个性,最宝贵的故事和最爱的人所在
的地方”,这里的 location 类似于 source 来源,其余选项代入都不适合。
第 54 题 这里所填词是修饰 people,并且根据此处是褒义的,应该选
loved,所爱的。
第 55 题 该空的主语是 race,并且根据句意,此处应该是“我们的种族并不
会单方面地定义我们是谁”,因此是 define。
04 语法填空答案:
56. how
57. opens
58. to draw
59. powerfully
60. crises

这篇文章结合时事,讲述了地理知识的重要性,主要考察时态、词性,也考察逻辑词的使
用,结合语境即可,难度简单。
详细解析:(语法填空比较简单,只做难题解析)
第 60 题 a confluence of 表示许多,因此要接复数,但要注意 crisis 的复数是
crises,考生可能会写成 crisises。
第 62 题 根据前一句说的是教育者和家人在努力应对在新冠病毒导致的新环
境中学习的现实,而空格后说我仍然因……而保持乐观可知,前后句是转折
关系,因此是填 Yet/Though/However,作副词,表然而。

Our school has recently launched an Adult Ceremony to encourage us to
strive
with gratitude and responsibility.
Attending the ceremony were school leaders, teachers and students who are
18 years old. The president expressed on behalf of the school his wish that we
should stay hungry for knowledge and never let down the high expectations of
teachers, parents and others in society. After the speech of the school leaders,
we students took the collective oath and wrote down our dreams.
This event turned out a great success, convincing us that it's our duty to aim
high while doing solid work.
2、读后续写:(官方范文)
I looked at what the second man had dropped: it was jewellery. It all
happened too quickly, but soon realized what had happened. They were
burglars. My friend Jeremy, who was waiting for me, quickly ran out when
hearing unusual noises. We called the police and they were there 5 minutes
later. I gave the police officer descriptions of the thieves and told them the
names they had called out.
“You were brave for trying stop them,“ said the officer. “We should be able
to catch them with your information.” Jeremy told the officer the owners of the
house were on holiday and gave him a phone number. When the officer left,
told Jeremy about the mistake with the door numbers. I hadn't really been brave
at all, but my mix-up had stopped the burglars getting away with the jewelry.
Jeremy's neighbor thanked me a lot when they came back. Actually I have been
enjoying myself.
