A
If you ever get the impression that your dog can "tell" whether you look content or annoyed, you may be onto something. Dogs may indeed be able to distinguish between happy and angry human faces, according to a new study.
Researchers trained a group of 11 dogs to distinguish between images(图像)of the same person making either a happy or an angry face. During the training stage, each dog was shown only the upper half or the lower half of the person's face. The researchers then tested the dogs' ability to distinguish between human facial expressions by showing them the other half of the person's face or images totally different from the ones used in training. The researchers found that the dogs were able to pick the angry or happy face by touching a picture of it with their noses more often than one would expect by random chance.
The study showed the animals had figured out how to apply what they learned about human faces during training to new faces in the testing stage. "We can rule out that the dogs simply distinguish between the pictures based on a simple cue, such as the sight of teeth," said study author Corsin Müller. "Instead, our results suggest that the successful dogs realized that a smiling mouth means the same thing as smiling eyes, and the same rule applies to an angry mouth having the same meaning as angry eyes."
"With our study, we think we can now confidently conclude that at least some dogs can distinguish human facial expressions," Muller told Live Science.
At this point, it is not clear why dogs seem to be equipped with the ability to recognize different facial expressions in humans. "To us, the most likely explanation appears to be that the basis lies in their living with humans, which gives them a lot of exposure to human facial expressions," and this exposure has provided them with many chances to learn to distinguish between them, Müller said.
1. The new study focused on whether dogs can _____.
A. distinguish shapes
B. make sense of human faces
C. feel happy or angry
D. communicate with each other
2. What can we learn about the study from Paragraph 2
A. Researchers tested the dogs in random order.
B. Diverse methods were adopted during training.
C. Pictures used in the two stages were different.
D. The dogs were photographed before the test.
3. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. A suggestion for future studies.
B. A possible reason for the study findings.
C. A major limitation of the study.
D. An explanation of the research method.

You've heard that plastic is polluting the oceans—between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.
At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called "Strawpocalypse," a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source(来源) of plastic pollution, but they've recently come under fire because most people don't need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that's part of Von Wong's artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.
In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate(说明) a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload's worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled "Truckload of Plastic," Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they'd been dumped(倾倒) from a truck all at once.
Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.
1.What are Von Wong's artworks intended for
A.Beautifying the city he lives in. B.Introducing eco-friendly products.
C.Drawing public attention to plastic waste. D.Reducing garbage on the beach.
2.Why does the author discuss plastic straws in Paragraph 3
A.To show the difficulty of their recycling. B.To explain why they are useful.
C.To voice his views on modern art. D.To find a substitute for them.
3.What effect would "Truckload of Plastic" have on viewers
A.Calming. B.Disturbing. C.Refreshing. D.Challenging.
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A.Artists' Opinions on Plastic Safety B.Media Interest in Contemporary Art
C.Responsibility Demanded of Big Companies D.Ocean Plastics Transformed into Sculptures
C
When I was 9, we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow, London on a gray January morning. Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue-sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery.
Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing. I loved it. I soon made friends with the local skaters. We spoke our own language. And my favorite: Safe. Safe meant cool. It meant hello. It meant don't worry about it. Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam(横杆), I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up: Safe, man. Safe. A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting: "Safe! Safe! Safe!" And that's what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater.
When I was 15, my family moved to Washington. I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming. Within a couple of years, I'd given it up.
When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there. I've traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring. The day was cold but clear; tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters. Weaving(穿梭) among the kids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam. Then a rail-thin teenager, in a baggy white T-shirt, skidded(滑) up to the beam. He sat next to me. He seemed not to notice the man next to him. But soon I caught a few of his glances. "I was a local here 20 years ago," I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head. "Safe, man. Safe."
"Yeah," I said. "Safe."
1.What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London
A.He felt disappointed. B.He gave up his hobby.
C.He liked the weather there. D.He had disagreements with his family.
2.What do the underlined words "Safe! Safe! Safe!" probably mean
A.Be careful! B.Well done! C.No way! D.Don't worry!
3.Why did the author like to spend time in Southbank when he returned to London
A.To join the skateboarding. B.To make new friends.
C.To learn more tricks. D.To relive his childhood days.
4.What message does the author seem to convey in the text
A.Children should learn a second language. B.Sport is necessary for children's health.
C.Children need a sense of belonging. D.Seeing the world is a must for children.
D
Recently I read Nineteen Eighty-Four, a novel by George Orwell set in a totalitarian (极权主义的) state where even the language they use is controlled. Adjectives are forbidden and instead they use the words such as "ungood", "plus good" and "double plus good" to express emotions.
As I first read this I thought how impossible it would be in our society to have such vocabulary. However, the more I thought about it, the more I realized in its own way it was already happening. I type messages to my friends and alongside each is an emoji (表情符号). I often use them to emphasize something, or to seem not too serious, or because this specific GIF conveys my emotions much better than I ever could using just words. And I wonder, "With too much use of emojis, are we losing the beauty and diversity of our vocabulary "
English has the largest vocabulary in the world, with over one million words, but who's to say what it'll be like in the future Perhaps we will have a shorter language, full of saying "cry face" if something sad happens or using LOL(laugh out loud) or BRB(be right back) instead of saying the full phrase. So does this mean our vocabulary will shrink Is it the start of an exciting new era
Yet when you look back over time, the power of the image has always been there. Even in the prehistoric era they used imagery to communicate, and what's even more incredible is that we are able to analyse those drawings and understand the meaning of them thousands of years later. Pictures have the ability to go beyond time and language. Images, whether they are cave paintings or emojis, allow us to convey a message that's not restrictive but rather universal.
1. What is the reason for the novel Nineteen Eighty-Four being mentioned
A. To introduce the following topic.
B. To recommend this book to readers.
C. To show the author's special interest.
D. To show the diversity of languages.
2. Why does the author often use emojis while typing messages
A. Because they are easy to type.
B. Because they are amusing to use.
C. Because they can better convey emotions.
D. Because they reflect the diversity of languages.
3. What can we infer from Paragraph 3
A. English vocabulary will become smaller.
B. A new language era has come into being.
C. English will be more popular in the future.
D. Short forms of words may be popular in the future.
4. What might be the author's opinion
A. We shouldn't use emojis too much.
B. Emojis can be understood universally.
C. Languages will be replaced by emojis.
D. We have to learn several languages.

My husband and I just spent a week in Paris. ①_____ So the first thing we did was rent a fantastically expensive sixth-floor apartment the size of a cupboard. It was so tiny that we had to leave our suitcases in the hallway.
The place wasn't entirely authentic, though. Unlike a normal Parisian apartment, the plumbing(水管) worked. ②_____ Our building even had a tiny lift with a female voice that said, "Ouverture des portes," in perfect French. That is the only French phrase I mastered, and it's a shame I don't have much use for it.
Parisians are different from you and me. They never look lazy or untidy. As someone noted in this paper a couple of weeks ago, they eat great food and never gain weight. ③_____ French strawberries do not taste like cardboard. Instead, they explode in your mouth like little flavor bombs.
④_____ On our first morning in Paris, I went around the corner to the food market to pick up some groceries. I bought a handful of perfectly ripe small strawberries and a little sweet melon. My husband and I agreed they were the best fruit we had ever eaten. But they cost $18!
In France, quality of life is much more important than efficiency(效率). You can tell this by café life. French cafés are always crowded. ⑤_____ When do these people work The French take their 35-hour workweek seriously—so seriously that some labor unions recently struck a deal with a group of companies limiting the number of hours that independent contractors can be on call.
A.Not all the customers are tourists.
B.The quality of life in France is equally excellent.
C.There was a nice kitchen and a comfortable bed.
D.The amazing food is mainly consumed by local farmers.
E.That's not the only reason the French eat less than we do.
F.Our aim was to see if we could live, in some way, like real Parisians.
G.The food is so delicious that you don't need much of it to make you happy.

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。
Ashwini was waiting at the door for her children, Amit and Anika. It was the last day of their exams and she had prepared tasty snacks for them.
“Mom, you know Rishit from my class He always disturbed others during the exam and copied from them.'
“Hey, let me speak now,” Anika said and kept giggling all the time. “Mom, one of the girls in my class had prepared a matchbox instead of a soapbox."
The kids continued speaking, giggling, and enjoyed pizzas till late evening. Ashwini was pleased to know that her kids shared everything with her. If the kids faced any problem or had an interesting piece of news, they always shared it with their mother. They were not scared of or nervous about their mother.
In the vacation, Ashwini’s elder sister, Sunita, visited their place along with her two kids, Pranjal and Kanchan. Sunita observed Ashwini's friendly behavior with her kids and opposed it.
“What is this, Ashwini You never scold your kids. They are not scared of you,” She said to her younger sister.
"Sunita, kids should never be scared of their parents. They should feel free when they communicate with parents."
"Weren't we afraid of our parents Don't you remember you used to be nervous while talking to Dad Yet we had better communication,” Sunita argued.
“Well, we are not living in the same age. We need to be more open-minded with children now.”
But Sunita was not satisfied with her explanation. She continued complaining about how Ashwini's kids were dependent on her mother for everything.
“Why do you have to prepare different dishes each time when they are hungry Pranjal directly calls the nearby hotel and places an order. You don't have to spend time on it,”
Until Sunita left, she had almost brainwashed Ashwini by constantly reminding her that she was not bringing up her kids properly. When Sunita left, Ashwini let out a sigh of relief.
注意: 续写词数应为150左右;
Paragraph 1:
When the school started again, Ashwini's attitude towards her kids changed a little bit. ___________

答案解析
第一部分 阅读理解
第一节
A
答案：1-3BCB
解析：1.细节理解题。说明文一般采取“开门见山”的写作手法,研究的关注点一般会在首段出现。本题题干意为:新研究关注狗是否能够_____。根据第一段最后一句"Dogs may indeed be able to distinguish between happy and angry human faces..."(狗或许真的能够分辨开心和愤怒的人类表情……) 可知,这项新研究关注的是狗是否能够弄清楚人类面部表情。
2.细节理解题。根据题干,可直接将答案区域锁定在第二段。本题题干意为: 从第二段中我们能了解到关于这项研究的什么内容 通读第二段可知,本段主要讲的是研究的过程和方法。根据本段中的描述"During the training stage, each dog was shown only the upper half or the lower half of the person's face. The researchers then... by showing them the other half of the person's face... different from the ones used in training."可知在研究的两个阶段,使用的图片是不一样的,故 C项是正确的。
3.主旨大意题。找到主旨句是关键。本题题干意为:最后一段主要是关于什么的 根据最后一段第一句"At this point, it is not clear why dogs seem to be equipped with the ability to recognize..."可知,本段要探讨狗能识别人的表情的原因。第二句紧接着解释了可能的原因(the most likely explanation) 。B 项中的 a possible reason 与第一句中的 why 和第二句中的explanation对应,故B项正确。
B
答案：1-4 CABD
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.可知, 他的作品迫使观看者重新审视自己与一次性塑料产品的关系, 即引起公众对废弃塑料的关注。故选C项。
2.推理判断题。根据第三段第一句Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled.以及最后一句Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.可知, 作者在本段通过介绍塑料吸管的使用情况和自身特点来说明塑料吸管的回收之难。故选A项。
3.推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句...more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they'd been dumped from a truck all at once.可知, 这个作品是将一万多块塑料绑在一起, (让这些塑料)看起来好像是从卡车上同时倾倒下来的, 这个画面应是会让观众感到很震惊, disturbing意为"令人震惊的; 令人不安的", 符合语境。
4.主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了一位艺术家用塑料废品建造巨大的雕塑, 让观众重新审视他们与一次性塑料产品的关系, 从而引起人们对废弃塑料的关注。由此可知, D项(将海洋塑料转变成雕像)符合语境, 最适合作为本文的标题。故选D项。
C
答案：1-4 ABDC
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第一段第二句和第三句可知, 在移居伦敦后, 全家人都快速融入其中, 只有作者一个人想念以前的沙滩和蓝天, 觉得迷茫和格格不入, 由此可知作者并不喜欢这座新的城市, 觉得很泪丧。A项中的disappointed与第一段中的at a loss和out of place相呼应。故选A项。
2.词义猜测题。根据第二段中的Safe meant cool. It meant hello. It meant don't worry about it.可知, "Safe"一词是滑板运动中用来称赞和鼓励他人的口头禅。再根据第二段中的when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud可知, 作者当时刚刚顺利掌握了一个滑板技巧, 故可推断出朋友们对作者连喊三声"Safe!"应该是对他的夸赞。故选B项。
3.推理判断题。文中第二段讲述了作者在伦敦南岸和当地人一起玩滑板的美好童年时光。而第三段提到在作者15岁那年全家移居华盛顿, 由于当地人不太友好, 作者渐渐放弃了玩滑板这一爱好。再结合文中第四段第一句可知, 作者在回到伦敦后不由自主地游走到了曾经玩滑板的南岸, 故可推断出作者之所以喜欢在南岸消磨时间, 是因为他想在那里重温美好的童年时光。故选D项。
4.推理判断题。通读全文可知, 作者9岁时移居伦敦后感到迷茫和格格不入, 但在南岸这个地方结识了很多当地的滑板玩家, 他们之间用"Safe"来进行沟通。作者15岁时移居华盛顿, 在2004年重返伦敦并结识了一位正在玩滑板的少年。在与少年的交谈中, 作者再次听到"Safe"这句熟悉的口头禅, 顿时找到了久违的归属感。由此可推知, 文章想要传达的信息可能是"儿童需要归属感"。故选C项。
D
答案：1-4ACDB
解析：1.推理判断题。第一段提到作者读了乔治 奥威尔的小说 《一九八四》, 故事发生在一个连语言都受到控制的极权主义国家。他们禁止使用形容词,而是使用"ungood" "plus good"和"double plus good"等来表达情感。结合接下来作者讲到的符号在日常生活中的使用推断出《一九八四》被提及是为了引出下文关于符号或图像语言在我们生活中的应用这个话题。故选A。B项"为了向读者推荐这本书"、C项“为了显示作者的特殊兴趣”和D项“为了展示语言的多样性”都不是提及此书的目的。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段中的I often use them to emphasize something, or to seem not too serious, or because this specific GIF conveys my emotions much better than I ever could using just words.可知,我经常用它们来强调某件事,或者让自己看起来不那么严肃,或者因为这个特定的动图比我只用文字能更好地表达我的情绪。故选C。A项"因为它们很容易输入"、B项“因为它们使用起来很有趣”和D项“因为它们反映了语言的多样性”均不是作者使用表情符号的原因。
3.推理判断题。根据第三段中的Perhaps we will have a shorter language, full of saying "cry face" if something sad happens or using LOL (laugh out loud) or BRB (be right back) instead of saying the full phrase.可知,也许我们会有一种更简略的语言,当悲伤的事情发生时用"cry face"来表达,或者用LOL (笑出声来)或BRB(马上回来)来代替完整的短语。由此推断出,将来缩略语也许会很受欢迎。故选D。根据"So does this mean our vocabulary will shrink "可知A项"英语词汇量会变得更小"是不确定的;根据"Is it the start of an exciting new era "可知B项"一个新的语言时代已经出现"也是不确定的; C项“在将来英语将是更受欢迎的”不是原文的信息。
4.推理判断题。根据文章最后一句Images, whether they are cave paintings or emojis, allow us to convey a message that's not restrictive but rather universal.可知,无论是洞穴壁画还是表情符号,图像允许我们传达一种不受限制而是广泛适用的信息。 所以推断出,作者也许认为表情符号可以被普遍理解。故选 B。A项“我们不应该过多使用表情符号”、C项“语言将被表情符号取代”和D项“我们必须学习几种语言”都不是文中作者的观点。
第二节
答案：FCGEA
解析：①设空处前提到作者和丈夫在巴黎待了一周, 再根据设空处后一句So the first thing we did was rent a fantastically expensive sixth-floor apartment the size of a cupboard.可知, 设空处应表明作者和丈夫在巴黎租了一套昂贵公寓的原因。F项(我们的目的是看看我们能否在某种程度上像真正的巴黎人那样生活)符合语境。
②根据设空处前的Unlike a normal Parisian apartment, the plumbing worked.及设空处后一句Our building even had a tiny lift...可知, 此处应列举作者租的公寓与巴黎一般的公寓之间的不同之处。此外, 根据设空处后一句中的关键词even可知, 设空句与空后一句是递进关系, 表示作者在巴黎租的公寓条件很好。C项(里面有一个很棒的厨房和一张舒适的床)符合语境。
③根据设空处前的they eat great food and never gain weight和设空处后两句French strawberries do not taste like cardboard. Instead, they explode in your mouth like little flavor bombs.可知, 设空处应承上启下, 解释巴黎人吃得很好, 但是体重从不增加的原因。G项(食物是如此美味, 你不需要吃太多就能让自己获得快乐)符合语境。
④设空处位于段首, 应为本段的主题句。根据该段最后两句My husband and I agreed they were the best fruit we had ever eaten. But they cost $18!可知, 本段是在描述巴黎的水果味美价高, 设空句为过渡句, 既承接上文, 总结巴黎人吃得少, 又引出下文, 解释巴黎人吃得少的另一个原因。E项(那并不是法国人吃得比我们少的唯一原因)符合语境。
⑤本段的主题是对法国人来说, 生活质量比效率重要得多。根据设空处前一句French cafés are always crowded.和后一句When do these people work 可知,设空处应表明咖啡馆里的顾客的身份。A项(不是所有的顾客都是游客)符合语境。
第二部分 语言知识运用
第一节
答案：1-5ADCBA 6-10BDBCD 11-15AABCD

2.考查动词。report报道;accept接受;notice注意; understand理解。it指代上文内容,由第一句中的living in Holland可知,学荷兰语会有助于你理解周围发生的事情。 故选D。
3.考查形容词。easy容易的;slow慢的;wrong错误的; funny 可笑的。根据下文"There is only one reason that really 4 and it is a very important one"可知,作者认为学习荷兰语仅有一个理由确实很重要,所以推断出作者认为他们的想法是错误的。故选C。

5.考查动词。want想要;design设计;find发现;see看见。 根据上文提到的,学习荷兰语仅有一个重要的理由,结合下文讲述的作者的经历可推断出,作者认为学习荷兰语可以让你在理发时得到你想要的发型。故选A。

12.考查形容词o late迟的;晚的;quick快的;far较远的; close亲密的。根据下文“My hair was gone.”可知,到作者想出办法来之前,头发没有了,所以已经太晚了。故选A。
13.考查名词。hand手;head头;arm胳膊;leg腿。根据上文"My hair was gone. I had a beard (胡子)."可知,作者没有了头发,但是有胡子,所以脸上的毛发比头上的多。故选B。
14.考查形容词。old老的;pretty漂亮的;strange奇怪的;fashionable流行的。根据上文可知,作者头上的头发很少,脸上的胡子很多,所以可推断出,作者觉得样子很奇怪。故选C。
15.考查动词。use使用;avoid避免;share共享;improve提高。根据上文“This was not the first time that something like this had happened."可知,像上文那样的事情发生了不止一次,因此作者认为自己应该提高自己的荷兰语水平。故选D。
第二节
答案：①an ②variety ③learners ④began ⑤successfully ⑥studying ⑦that/which ⑧in ⑨to conduct
⑩is saved/has been saved
解析：①考查冠词。句意:这是印度孟买一节在线汉语课的场面。此处泛指“一节在线汉语课”,应使用不定冠词,online 的发音以元音音素开头,所以用an。故填an。
②考查固定用法。句意:随着新冠肺炎疫情的持续蔓延,多种平台上的在线汉语学习在当地流行起来。a variety of意为“各种各样的……,多种多样的……。”故填variety。
③考查名词的复数。句意:来自孟买的18岁的 Drashti Gala是众多在线汉语学习者之一……。one of后加复数名词,意为“……之一”,应使用名词的复数形式。故填 learners。
④考查动词时态。句意:事实上,在她们的爸爸提出建议之后,她家里的三姐妹都开始学起了汉语。根据语境, “开始学习汉语”这一动作发生在过去,应使用一般过去时。 故填began。
⑤考查副词。句意:在很短的时间内,她成功通过了汉语水平考试三级(HSK3),目前正在准备更高级别的考试。此处用副词修饰动词。故填successfully。
⑥考查动名词。句意:一开始,一些学生很犹豫,因为他们不习惯在网上学习,但现在他们认识到,在线学习意味着他们能将本会花在路上的时间节省下来。短语be used to(习惯于)后应接动名词作宾语。故填studying。
⑦考查定语从句。句意同上。分析句子结构可知,time后为一个定语从句,修饰名词time, 且从句中缺少主语,所以用关系代词that或which。
⑧考查介词。句意:一些负责人表示:“与传统的课堂教学相比,我们的网络课程更方便,更容易进行,也节省了租用教室的成本。所以网上学习很受欢迎。”根据句意可知,此处是固定短语in charge,作后置定语,意为“负责,主管”。故填in。
⑨考查动词不定式。句意同上。此处是“主语+be +adj.+to do”结构,动词不定式的主动形式表示被动含义。 故填 to conduct。
⑩考查动词时态和语态。句意同上。the cost与动词save构成被动关系,同时前后语境为一般现在时,所以用一般现在时的被动语态。故填is saved。

第一节
答案：
One possible version:
Dear Jamie,
I'm sorry to know that you have difficulty in your Chinese reading. To be honest, it's never easy to learn Chinese characters. Even native Chinese speakers may find it hard to learn them well, so you don't have to feel upset. Here are some useful tips.
First and foremost, it would be a good idea to turn to the Internet for help when you have a problem, where you can learn how to read and write the characters. Additionally, practicing is very helpful for language learning, so you are advised to join some clubs and ask for others, help. Last but not least, why not learn some relevant courses on relevant apps, which will definitely be of great benefit.
If there still exist further problems, please don't hesitate to contact me. You are sure to make progress!
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
答案:One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
When the school started again, Ashwini attitude towards her kids changed a little bit. One day, Amit asked his mother a science problem. Instead of replying directly, Ashwini said, "Amit, you should know how to study on your own. See how independent your cousins, Pranjal and Kanchan, are." When she finished, the kids watched her with their mouths open. From then on, they changed completely and became very quiet at home.
Paragraph 2:
Ashwini noticed the change in the kids' behavior soon and found it unbearable. Anika did not ask her mother for evening snacks any more. Amit never asked his mother any problems. There were no chats between the mother and the kids either. Suddenly Ashwini realized it wasn't what she wanted. The house appeared too quiet. The atmosphere at home was unbearably cold. Ashwini suddenly realized for kids, time was love. So she decided to prepare tasty food for their return and be ready to chat and share something with her children.
