In 1916, two girls of wealthy families, best friends from Auburn, N. Y.—Dorothy Woodruff and Rosamond Underwood—traveled to a settlement in the Rocky Mountains to teach in a one-room schoolhouse. The girls had gone to Smith College. They wore expensive clothes. So for them to move to Elkhead, Colo. to instruct the children whose shoes were held together with string was a surprise. Their stay in Elkhead is the subject of Nothing Daunted: The Unexpected Education of Two Society Girls in the West by Dorothy Wickenden, who is a magazine editor and Dorothy Woodruff's granddaughter.
Why did they go then Well, they wanted to do something useful. Soon, however, they realized what they had undertaken.
They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and, like them, had little privacy, rare baths, and a blanket of snow on their quilt when they woke up in the morning. Some mornings, Rosamond and Dorothy would arrive at the schoolhouse to find the children weeping from the cold. In spring, the snow was replaced by mud over ice.
In Wickenden's book, she expanded on the history of the West and also on feminism, which of course influenced the girls' decision to go to Elkhead. A hair-raising section concerns the building of the railroads, which entailed(牵涉)drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms. The book ends with Rosamond and Dorothy's return to Auburn.
Wickenden is a very good storyteller. The sweep of the land and the stoicism(坚忍)of the people move her to some beautiful writing. Here is a picture of Dorothy Woodruff, on her horse, looking down from a hill top: "When the sun slipped behind the mountains, it shed a rosy glow all around them. Then a full moon rose. The snow was marked only by small animals: foxes, coyotes, mice, and varying hares, which turned white in the winter."
1.Why did Dorothy and Rosamond go to the Rocky Mountains
A.To teach in a school. B.To study American history.
C.To write a book. D.To do sightseeing.
2.What can we learn about the girls from paragraph 3
A.They enjoyed much respect. B.They had a room with a bathtub.
C.They lived with the local kids. D.They suffered severe hardships.
3.Which part of Wickenden's writing is hair-raising
A.The extreme climate of Auburn.
B.The living conditions in Elkhead.
C.The railroad building in the Rockies.
D.The natural beauty of the West.
4.What is the text
A.A news report. B.A book review.
C.A children's story. D.A diary entry.

One of the greatest contributors to the first
Oxford English Dictionary was also one of its most unusual. In 1879, Oxford
University in England asked Prof. James Murray to serve as editor for what was
to be the most ambitious dictionary in the history of the English language. It
would include every English word possible and would give not only the
definition but also the history of the word and quotations showing how it was
used.
This was a huge task, so Murray had to find
volunteers from Britain, the United States, and the British colonies to search
every newspaper, magazine, and book ever written in English. Hundreds of
volunteers responded, including William Chester Minor. Dr. Minor was an
American surgeon who had served in the Civil War and was now living in England.
He gave his address as "Broadmoor, Crowthorne, Berkshire, "50 miles
from Oxford.
Minor joined the army of volunteers sending
words and quotations to Murray. Over the next 17 years, he became one of the
staff's most valued contributors.
But he was also a mystery. In spite of many
invitations, he would always decline to visit Oxford. So in 1897, Murray
finally decided to travel to Crowthorne himself. When he arrived, he found
Minor locked in a book-lined cell at the Broadmoor Asylum for the Criminally
Insane.
Murray and Minor became friends, sharing their
love of words. Minor continued contributing to the dictionary, sending in more
than 10, 000 submissions in 20 years. Murray continued to visit Minor
regularly, sometimes taking walks with him around the asylum grounds. In 1910,
Minor left Broadmoor for an asylum in his native America. Murray was at the
port to wave goodbye to his remarkable friend.
Minor died in 1920, seven years before the first
edition of the Oxford English Dictionary was completed. The 12 volumes defined
414, 825 words, and thousands of them were contributions from a very scholarly
and devoted asylum patient.
5.According to the text, the first Oxford English Dictionary
A.came out before Minor died
B.was edited by an American volunteer
C.included the English words invented by Murray
D.was intended to be the most ambitious English dictionary
6.How did Dr. Minor contribute to the dictionary
A.He helped Murray to find hundreds of volunteers.
B.He sent newspapers, magazines and books to Murray.
C.He provided a great number of words and quotations.
D.He went to England to work with Murray.
7.Why did Dr. Minor refuse to visit Oxford
A.He was shut in an asylum. B.He disliked traveling.
C.He was busy writing a book. D.He lived far from Oxford.
8.Which of the following best describes Dr. Minor
A.Cautious and friendly. B.Unusual and scholarly.
C.Friendly and determined. D.Considerate and optimistic.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
Matt Doogue, a 34-year-old
nature photographer, had been suffering from depression when he first found his
passion for taking pictures of insects and his work is now featured in National Geographic. He says that he tried
to take his own life nine years ago after hitting rock bottom. "In the
beginning, I was so paranoid(多疑的) and angry that I couldn't leave the house," says Doogue. "When
I attempted to end my life, I knew I needed to see someone. I went to the doctors
and got treatment, but I know that I needed something more and that's when I started
photography. "
Now a dad of two, Doogue found that looking at insects through
a camera helped him in ways he could never have imagined and it proved to be the
lifeline he needed. It had a calming effect that helped him to disconnect from stress.
And his astonishing images, showing insects and spiders in amazing detail against
brightly colored backgrounds, caught the eye of publishers at National Geographic. "I ended up as
one of their featured photographers," recalled Doogue. "It was the peak
of my career. It was incredible. "
Originally from Salford, Greater Manchester, he now lives in Armadale,
West Lothian, Scotland. Though he fears that Scotland is in the middle of an epidemic
of male suicide, he believes that sharing his love of nature photography can help
others to cope with their mental health issues as well. "I think the problem
is this man-up approach; the idea that men need to be strong puts so much pressure
on young males to be fine all the time," says Doogue. "This is why I try
and be so open about my own experience. Whenever I am out with my camera, I don't
think about my other worries. It is just me and the environment around me. You can
lose yourself in a spider making its web. "
9.What does the underlined phrase "hit rock bottom" in paragraph 1 mean
A.Be in the worst possible situation.
B.Reach the bottom of a valley.
C.Crash into the lowest part of a rock.
D.Launch an attack on the rock bottom.
10.How did photography benefit Doogue
A.It gave him a new way to express himself.
B.It helped him to escape from pressure.
C.It provided him with life-saving skills.
D.It offered him an opportunity to explore nature.
11.What caused Scottish men to develop mental health problems
A.The way men employ to solve problems.
B.The lack of love for men's life and work.
C.The worry that men get separated from people.
D.The belief that men are expected to be strong.
12.What is the main purpose of the author in writing the text
A.To warn the severity of mental problems.
B.To show the benefits of nature photography.
C.To advise readers to get close to nature.
D.To introduce Doogue's fighting against depression.

Edward O. Wilson who died on Dec. 26, 2021
at the age of 92, was an extraordinary scholar in every sense of the word. By the time I met
him in 1982, he'd made great contributions to science. For example, he
discovered the chemical means by which ants
communicate. He worked out the importance of the habitat size and position in
protecting animals.
In 1982 I cautiously sat down next to the
great man during a break at a small conference on social insects. He turned, extended his hand
and said, "Hi, I'm Ed Wilson. I don't believe we've met. "Then we
talked until it was time to get back to the
meeting. Three hours later I approached him again. He turned, extended his hand
and said, "Hi, I'm Ed Wilson. I don't believe we've met. "
Wilson forgot me but remained friendly. I
was fresh out of graduate school, while Wilson was already very famous. Yet he didn't
hesitate to extend his hand to me, not once but twice.
My work studying native plants and insects
was inspired by Wilson's descriptions of biodiversity. His 1992book, The
Diversity of Life, became the basis for an eventual tum in my career path. Throughout
his career, Wilson communicated the urgent need to preserve the natural world.
As I see it, the only way to realize Wilson's lifelong wish is to bury the idea that humans are here and nature is
someplace else. Providing a practical plan for protecting the earth has been my goal for the last 20 years, and I'm
honored that it mixes with Wilson's thought.
13.When did the author meet Wilson for the first time
A.When the author was doing business.
B.When the author was in graduate school.
C.When the author attended a small conference.
D.When the author was studying native plants.
14.What did the author probably think of Wilson after they met
A.Clever. B.Determined. C.Creative. D.Kind.
15.What do we know about the author
A.He regularly had discussions with Wilson.
B.His research was influenced by Wilson.
C.He wrote a book under the guidance of Wilson.
D.His opinion about nature was different from Wilson's.
16.What does the author think the way to realize Wilson's lifelong wish is
A.Staying away from nature.
B.Learning about all kinds of animals.
C.Conducting future research.
D.Learning to coexist with nature.

A Ghanaian man who once made jewelry from glass is now using old glass to make new art. He hopes to reduce glass waste and help the environment in his country. If glass artist Michael Tetteh can earn some money by doing it, he will be happy, too.
Tetteh learned the art of glass blowing during a visit to Europe in 2012. He went to see people who knew about glass blowing in the Netherlands and France and learned to make many-colored, artistic flower holders or water carriers. Many years later, Tetteh has his own workplace where he melts broken glass from waste centers and turns it into art. He looks for broken glass from old televisions or bottles and melts it down in a large round container known as a kiln(窑). The kiln gets very hot, nearly 1, 500 ℃, and turns the old glass into hot liquid.
Tetteh works in the area called Odumase-Krobo and trains other glass blowers in his shop. He learned how to make his equipment by watching videos on a computer. He said he is trying to follow the designs of well-known American glass artist Dale Chihuly. Over the years, he has gotten better at the work. Now Tetteh's pieces are sold in shops in Ghana and Ivory Coast. Some of his works are also sold in art stores in Europe and the U.S.
“My heart wants to train young Ghanaians, both men and women, so they can learn this job," he said.
If he can teach more people to make art pieces from glass, more people would get benefit from it. Ghana imports about $300 million worth of glass and pottery each year.

Since the
age of 5,Laura Lee has had what most would consider an odd habit-she collects
toilet rolls. At that time, she didn't know this habit would eventually become
a nationwide recycling campaign.
In
December 2018, as a 16-year-old student of Nanyang Girls' High School in
Singapore, Lee founded ToiletRollSG, a national project that aims to collect
1,000 kilograms of cardboard cylinders(纸 筒)-or about 150,000 pieces. As of February of
2021, Lee, who was studying at Hwa Chong Institution,
had collected 860 kg of toilet rolls, reported Singapore Today. Slightly later,
she was awarded Singapore's National Environment Agency's Ecofriend Awards,
which recognizes individuals for their contributions to the environment, under
the Youth and Students category.
But why
did she choose toilet rolls "They are convenient to collect and also one
of the purest forms of waste to recycle because they are made of only one material,"
Lee told Singapore Today. "Project must be economically practical too. For
example, it's more difficult to recycle pens because they are made up of too
many different materials like rubber casings (橡胶外壳),metals and plastics which require more resources to separate. "
Lee went
into a partnership with the waste management firm Veolia, which gives her five
cents for every 1 kg of toilet rolls collected.
She
organized "toilet roll challenges" within Nanyang Girls' High School
and worked with cleaners to collect used toilet rolls from school toilets. She
also conducted talks about ToiletRollSG. But due to COVID-19, she has been
unable to conduct physical talks, so she raises awareness about different
social causes through her Instagram Live series called On A Roll.
One of the
biggest challenges Lee has faced has been others doubting her due to her young
age. "I always have to use my actions as well as the different things I've
done to prove that I'm passionate and know about this," she told The
Straits Times.
Lee will
donate the money collected to a social cause that is focused on community
health.
25.Why did Lee found ToiletRollSG
A.To develop some good habits.
B.To be honored by Ecofriend Awards.
C.To recycle toilet cardboard cylinders.
D.To make contributions to her high school.
26.Lee's mention of pens in paragraph 3 is to_____.
A.show toilet rolls are more important
B.prove it difficult to recycle pens
C.illustrate the process of recycling pens
D.explain Lee's opinion on recycling
27.What is the biggest challenge Laura is faced with
A.The failure to conduct talks. B.The ineffective cooperation.

Gaelic
had been the major culture in Scotland. But many forces tried to weaken its
power. The final straw came in 1609, when some laws required Highland Scottish
leaders to send their children to English-speaking schools. Naturally, the culture
continued to weaken through the 20th century. Though Gaelic still existed in
some rural areas, a lack of jobs meant young people in Gaelic areas were
leaving for English-speaking cities.
Iain
Noble was a wealthy businessman from Germany. He quickly fell in love with Gaelic
culture when he moved to Scotland. So he set up the college of Sabhal Mòr
Ostaig in 1973 on the Isle of Skye. Today, it has more than 1,000 students and
is officially the National Centre for Gaelic Language and Culture. It is where
the revival of Scotland's Gaelic culture started.
Of
course, the college teaches the language and culture. But the secret to making
such impressive cultural achievements is giving language learners skills in
industries like media and business. The skills allow students to create local
jobs and help make the area known to tourists.
Noble's
wife Lady Lucilla said his eagerness to revive the culture was clear. After
spending much money setting up the college, Noble had to go to great lengths to
find worthwhile teachers. Sometimes he tied hard to find people who had left
Skye, "Iain would invite those whose families were from Skye but who were
working in Aberdeen, in London and further afield," said Lucilla.
"Now
I've seen some cool youngsters who are very proud of their Gaelic, and they are
fascinated by the culture," she said.
One
such youngster is 15-year-old Emily Macdonald. She not only speaks Gaelic
fluently with her friends, but is excited to do so.
"I
feel like we're even more wanting to speak Gaelic, just to keep it alive,
because it is really important to our nation," she said. "And to have
this special language that we can speak to each other in is quite
special."
29.What does the first paragraph mainly talk about
A.The fall of Gaelic. B.The future of Gaelic.
C.The influence of Gaelic. D.The advantages of Gaelic.
30.What is the key to the college's success
A.Having the best Gaelic teachers.
B.Teaching students professional skills.
C.Receiving much government support.
D.Being open to both natives and foreigners.
31.What did Lucilla tell us about Noble
A.He made much money from the college.
B.He traveled a lot to spread Gaelic culture.
C.He spared no effort to do his cultural work.
D.He became world-famous because of his college.
32.What does Emily Macdonald think of Gaelic language
A.It is the pride of their nation.
B.It is hard to learn for youngsters.
C.It has changed a lot over the years.
D.It attracts fewer local young people.

As
Ginni Bazlinton reached Antarctica, she found herself greeted by a group of
little Gentoo penguins longing to say hello. These gentle, lovely gatekeepers
welcomed her and kick-started what was to be a trip Ginni would never forget.
Ever
since her childhood, Ginni, now 71, has had a deep love for travel. Throughout

impression on me that no other place has," Ginni says. "I remember
the first time I saw a humpback whale; it just rose out of the water like some
prehistoric creature and I thought it was smiling at us. You could still hear
the operatic sounds it was making underwater. "
The
realization that this is a precious land, to be respected by humans, was one of
the biggest things that hit home to Ginni.

一、真题
(2022·全国乙卷)阅读理解的
In 1916, two girls of wealthy families, best friends from Auburn, N. Y.—Dorothy Woodruff and Rosamond Underwood—traveled to a settlement in the Rocky Mountains to teach in a one-room schoolhouse. The girls had gone to Smith College. They wore expensive clothes. So for them to move to Elkhead, Colo. to instruct the children whose shoes were held together with string was a surprise. Their stay in Elkhead is the subject of Nothing Daunted: The Unexpected Education of Two Society Girls in the West by Dorothy Wickenden, who is a magazine editor and Dorothy Woodruff's granddaughter.
Why did they go then Well, they wanted to do something useful. Soon, however, they realized what they had undertaken.
They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and, like them, had little privacy, rare baths, and a blanket of snow on their quilt when they woke up in the morning. Some mornings, Rosamond and Dorothy would arrive at the schoolhouse to find the children weeping from the cold. In spring, the snow was replaced by mud over ice.
In Wickenden's book, she expanded on the history of the West and also on feminism, which of course influenced the girls' decision to go to Elkhead. A hair-raising section concerns the building of the railroads, which entailed(牵涉)drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms. The book ends with Rosamond and Dorothy's return to Auburn.
Wickenden is a very good storyteller. The sweep of the land and the stoicism(坚忍)of the people move her to some beautiful writing. Here is a picture of Dorothy Woodruff, on her horse, looking down from a hill top: "When the sun slipped behind the mountains, it shed a rosy glow all around them. Then a full moon rose. The snow was marked only by small animals: foxes, coyotes, mice, and varying hares, which turned white in the winter."
1.Why did Dorothy and Rosamond go to the Rocky Mountains
A.To teach in a school. B.To study American history.
C.To write a book. D.To do sightseeing.
2.What can we learn about the girls from paragraph 3
A.They enjoyed much respect. B.They had a room with a bathtub.
C.They lived with the local kids. D.They suffered severe hardships.
3.Which part of Wickenden's writing is hair-raising
A.The extreme climate of Auburn.
B.The living conditions in Elkhead.
C.The railroad building in the Rockies.
D.The natural beauty of the West.
4.What is the text
A.A news report. B.A book review.

二、变式题
(2022高三上·武功月考)阅读理解
One of the greatest contributors to the first
Oxford English Dictionary was also one of its most unusual. In 1879, Oxford
University in England asked Prof. James Murray to serve as editor for what was
to be the most ambitious dictionary in the history of the English language. It
would include every English word possible and would give not only the
definition but also the history of the word and quotations showing how it was
used.
This was a huge task, so Murray had to find
volunteers from Britain, the United States, and the British colonies to search
every newspaper, magazine, and book ever written in English. Hundreds of
volunteers responded, including William Chester Minor. Dr. Minor was an
American surgeon who had served in the Civil War and was now living in England.
He gave his address as "Broadmoor, Crowthorne, Berkshire, "50 miles
from Oxford.
Minor joined the army of volunteers sending
words and quotations to Murray. Over the next 17 years, he became one of the
staff's most valued contributors.
But he was also a mystery. In spite of many
invitations, he would always decline to visit Oxford. So in 1897, Murray
finally decided to travel to Crowthorne himself. When he arrived, he found
Minor locked in a book-lined cell at the Broadmoor Asylum for the Criminally
Insane.
Murray and Minor became friends, sharing their
love of words. Minor continued contributing to the dictionary, sending in more
than 10, 000 submissions in 20 years. Murray continued to visit Minor
regularly, sometimes taking walks with him around the asylum grounds. In 1910,
Minor left Broadmoor for an asylum in his native America. Murray was at the
port to wave goodbye to his remarkable friend.
Minor died in 1920, seven years before the first
edition of the Oxford English Dictionary was completed. The 12 volumes defined
414, 825 words, and thousands of them were contributions from a very scholarly
and devoted asylum patient.
5.According to the text, the first Oxford English Dictionary
A.came out before Minor died
B.was edited by an American volunteer
C.included the English words invented by Murray
D.was intended to be the most ambitious English dictionary
6.How did Dr. Minor contribute to the dictionary
A.He helped Murray to find hundreds of volunteers.
B.He sent newspapers, magazines and books to Murray.
C.He provided a great number of words and quotations.
D.He went to England to work with Murray.
7.Why did Dr. Minor refuse to visit Oxford
A.He was shut in an asylum. B.He disliked traveling.
C.He was busy writing a book. D.He lived far from Oxford.
8.Which of the following best describes Dr. Minor
A.Cautious and friendly. B.Unusual and scholarly.
C.Friendly and determined. D.Considerate and optimistic.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
Matt Doogue, a 34-year-old
nature photographer, had been suffering from depression when he first found his
passion for taking pictures of insects and his work is now featured in National Geographic. He says that he tried
to take his own life nine years ago after hitting rock bottom. "In the
beginning, I was so paranoid(多疑的) and angry that I couldn't leave the house," says Doogue. "When
I attempted to end my life, I knew I needed to see someone. I went to the doctors
and got treatment, but I know that I needed something more and that's when I started
photography. "
Now a dad of two, Doogue found that looking at insects through
a camera helped him in ways he could never have imagined and it proved to be the
lifeline he needed. It had a calming effect that helped him to disconnect from stress.
And his astonishing images, showing insects and spiders in amazing detail against
brightly colored backgrounds, caught the eye of publishers at National Geographic. "I ended up as
one of their featured photographers," recalled Doogue. "It was the peak
of my career. It was incredible. "
Originally from Salford, Greater Manchester, he now lives in Armadale,
West Lothian, Scotland. Though he fears that Scotland is in the middle of an epidemic
of male suicide, he believes that sharing his love of nature photography can help
others to cope with their mental health issues as well. "I think the problem
is this man-up approach; the idea that men need to be strong puts so much pressure
on young males to be fine all the time," says Doogue. "This is why I try
and be so open about my own experience. Whenever I am out with my camera, I don't
think about my other worries. It is just me and the environment around me. You can
lose yourself in a spider making its web. "
9.What does the underlined phrase "hit rock bottom" in paragraph 1 mean
A.Be in the worst possible situation.
B.Reach the bottom of a valley.
C.Crash into the lowest part of a rock.

10.How did photography benefit Doogue
A.It gave him a new way to express himself.
B.It helped him to escape from pressure.
C.It provided him with life-saving skills.
D.It offered him an opportunity to explore nature.
11.What caused Scottish men to develop mental health problems
A.The way men employ to solve problems.
B.The lack of love for men's life and work.
C.The worry that men get separated from people.
D.The belief that men are expected to be strong.
12.What is the main purpose of the author in writing the text

Edward O. Wilson who died on Dec. 26, 2021
at the age of 92, was an extraordinary scholar in every sense of the word. By the time I met
him in 1982, he'd made great contributions to science. For example, he
discovered the chemical means by which ants
communicate. He worked out the importance of the habitat size and position in
protecting animals.
In 1982 I cautiously sat down next to the
great man during a break at a small conference on social insects. He turned, extended his hand
and said, "Hi, I'm Ed Wilson. I don't believe we've met. "Then we
talked until it was time to get back to the
meeting. Three hours later I approached him again. He turned, extended his hand
and said, "Hi, I'm Ed Wilson. I don't believe we've met. "
Wilson forgot me but remained friendly. I
was fresh out of graduate school, while Wilson was already very famous. Yet he didn't
hesitate to extend his hand to me, not once but twice.
My work studying native plants and insects
was inspired by Wilson's descriptions of biodiversity. His 1992book, The
Diversity of Life, became the basis for an eventual tum in my career path. Throughout
his career, Wilson communicated the urgent need to preserve the natural world.
As I see it, the only way to realize Wilson's lifelong wish is to bury the idea that humans are here and nature is
someplace else. Providing a practical plan for protecting the earth has been my goal for the last 20 years, and I'm
honored that it mixes with Wilson's thought.
13.When did the author meet Wilson for the first time
A.When the author was doing business.
B.When the author was in graduate school.
C.When the author attended a small conference.
D.When the author was studying native plants.
14.What did the author probably think of Wilson after they met
A.Clever. B.Determined. C.Creative. D.Kind.
15.What do we know about the author
A.He regularly had discussions with Wilson.
B.His research was influenced by Wilson.
C.He wrote a book under the guidance of Wilson.
D.His opinion about nature was different from Wilson's.
16.What does the author think the way to realize Wilson's lifelong wish is
A.Staying away from nature.
B.Learning about all kinds of animals.
C.Conducting future research.
D.Learning to coexist with nature.

have big respect for all the mothers, because the mothers are very strong. They're
always there for their children. They sacrifice (牺牲)their

A Ghanaian man who once made jewelry from glass is now using old glass to make new art. He hopes to reduce glass waste and help the environment in his country. If glass artist Michael Tetteh can earn some money by doing it, he will be happy, too.

He looks for broken glass from old televisions or bottles and melts it down in a large round container known as a kiln(窑). The kiln gets very hot, nearly 1, 500 ℃, and turns the old glass into hot liquid.
Tetteh works in the area called Odumase-Krobo and trains other glass blowers in his shop. He learned how to make his equipment by watching videos on a computer.

Since the
age of 5,Laura Lee has had what most would consider an odd habit-she collects
toilet rolls. At that time, she didn't know this habit would eventually become
a nationwide recycling campaign.
In
December 2018, as a 16-year-old student of Nanyang Girls' High School in
Singapore, Lee founded ToiletRollSG, a national project that aims to collect
1,000 kilograms of cardboard cylinders(纸 筒)-or about 150,000 pieces. As of February of
2021, Lee, who was studying at Hwa Chong Institution,
had collected 860 kg of toilet rolls, reported Singapore Today. Slightly later,
she was awarded Singapore's National Environment Agency's Ecofriend Awards,
which recognizes individuals for their contributions to the environment, under
the Youth and Students category.
But why
did she choose toilet rolls "They are convenient to collect and also one
of the purest forms of waste to recycle because they are made of only one material,"
Lee told Singapore Today. "Project must be economically practical too. For
example, it's more difficult to recycle pens because they are made up of too
many different materials like rubber casings (橡胶外壳),metals and plastics which require more resources to separate. "
Lee went
into a partnership with the waste management firm Veolia, which gives her five
cents for every 1 kg of toilet rolls collected.
She
organized "toilet roll challenges" within Nanyang Girls' High School
and worked with cleaners to collect used toilet rolls from school toilets. She
also conducted talks about ToiletRollSG. But due to COVID-19, she has been
unable to conduct physical talks, so she raises awareness about different
social causes through her Instagram Live series called On A Roll.
One of the
biggest challenges Lee has faced has been others doubting her due to her young
age. "I always have to use my actions as well as the different things I've
done to prove that I'm passionate and know about this," she told The
Straits Times.
Lee will
donate the money collected to a social cause that is focused on community
health.
25.Why did Lee found ToiletRollSG
A.To develop some good habits.
B.To be honored by Ecofriend Awards.
C.To recycle toilet cardboard cylinders.
D.To make contributions to her high school.
26.Lee's mention of pens in paragraph 3 is to_____.
A.show toilet rolls are more important
B.prove it difficult to recycle pens
C.illustrate the process of recycling pens
D.explain Lee's opinion on recycling

A.The failure to conduct talks. B.The ineffective cooperation.

26.考查推理判断。根据第三段“But why did she choose toilet rolls ‘They are convenient to collect and also one of the purest forms of waste to recycle because they are made of only one material,'Lee told Singapore Today. ‘Project must be economically practical too. For example, it's more difficult to recycle pens because they are made up of too many different materials like rubber casings (橡胶外壳),metals and plastics which require more resources to separate. '”但她为什么选择卫生纸卷呢?李在接受《今日新加坡》采访时说:“它们收集起来很方便,也是最纯粹的废物回收形式之一,因为它们只由一种材料制成。这个项目在经济上也必须切实可行。例如,钢笔更难回收,因为它们由太多不同的材料组成,如橡胶外壳、金属和塑料,需要更多的资源来分离。”可推知,Lee在第三段中提到的钢笔是为了解释Lee关于回收利用的观点。故选D。
27.考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的“One of the biggest challenges Lee has faced has been others doubting her due to her young age.”她面临的最大挑战之一是,由于年龄太小,有人怀疑她。可知,劳拉面临的最大挑战是他人的不信任。故选D。

Gaelic
had been the major culture in Scotland. But many forces tried to weaken its
power. The final straw came in 1609, when some laws required Highland Scottish
leaders to send their children to English-speaking schools. Naturally, the culture
continued to weaken through the 20th century. Though Gaelic still existed in
some rural areas, a lack of jobs meant young people in Gaelic areas were
leaving for English-speaking cities.
Iain
Noble was a wealthy businessman from Germany. He quickly fell in love with Gaelic
culture when he moved to Scotland. So he set up the college of Sabhal Mòr
Ostaig in 1973 on the Isle of Skye. Today, it has more than 1,000 students and
is officially the National Centre for Gaelic Language and Culture. It is where
the revival of Scotland's Gaelic culture started.
Of
course, the college teaches the language and culture. But the secret to making
such impressive cultural achievements is giving language learners skills in
industries like media and business. The skills allow students to create local
jobs and help make the area known to tourists.
Noble's
wife Lady Lucilla said his eagerness to revive the culture was clear. After
spending much money setting up the college, Noble had to go to great lengths to

As
Ginni Bazlinton reached Antarctica, she found herself greeted by a group of
little Gentoo penguins longing to say hello. These gentle, lovely gatekeepers
welcomed her and kick-started what was to be a trip Ginni would never forget.
Ever
since her childhood, Ginni, now 71, has had a deep love for travel. Throughout
her career as a professional dancer, she toured in the UK, but always longed to
explore further. When she retired from dancing and her sons eventually flew the
nest, she decided it was time to take the plunge.
After
taking a degree at Chichester University in Related Arts, Ginni began to travel
the world, eventually getting work teaching English in Japan and Chile. And it
was in Chile she discovered she could get last-minute cheap deals on ships
going to Antarctica from the islands off Tierra del Fuego, the southernmost tip
of the South American mainland. "I just decided I wanted to go," she
says. "I had no idea about what I'd find there and I wasn't nervous, I
just wanted to do it. And I wanted to do it alone as I always prefer it that
way. "
In
March 2008, Ginni boarded a ship with 48 passengers she'd never met before, to
begin the journey towards Antarctica. "From seeing the wildlife to
witnessing sunrises, the whole experience was amazing. Antarctica left an
impression on me that no other place has," Ginni says. "I remember
the first time I saw a humpback whale; it just rose out of the water like some
prehistoric creature and I thought it was smiling at us. You could still hear
the operatic sounds it was making underwater. "
The
realization that this is a precious land, to be respected by humans, was one of
the biggest things that hit home to Ginni.
33.Which of the following best explains "take the plunge" underlined in paragraph 2
