There are many famous festivals around the world. The Carnivals in Rio de Janeiro and Venice，Munich's Oktoberfest and London's Notting Hill Carnival are three examples.

Dog sledding is one of the fastest growing sports on the east coast of Australia. As there's no snow（the trail is earth and sand and is smooth and wide with a few hills and turns），the sleds have wheels instead of runners，but the excitement is the same
Darwin Beer Can Regatta（划船比赛）：Darwin，Northern Territory，Australia
This local charity event brings together great engineers and great drinkers. Participants construct everything from life-size beer-can canoes to beer-can Viking warships during this off-the-wall regatta.
La Tomatina：Bunol，Spain
“ The tomato battle is in honor of Saint Luis Beltran. Residents and visitors take part in a tomato-throwing battle that uses more than 88，000 pounds of tomatoes. This crazy event began with a serious aim as a symbolic protest against Franco. But the Tomatina is now regarded as an amusing way to end the summer. ”

Chinese delivery driver, Gao Zhixiao, was featured on the cover of Time magazine in March because of his sense of commitment. Alongside five others, he was picked by the magazine as one of heroes during the novel coronavirus outbreak.
Ever since COVID-19 broke out, many restaurants have shut down or switched to takeout-only services. Millions of people have been staying at home to avoid getting infected. “People choose to order food online or buy fruit and vegetables to cook at home,” Gao told Time. As a result, delivery orders dramatically increased, placing a huge burden on delivery companies.
Born into a poor family in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, Gao started to make a living in Beijing at age 16.After the novel coronavirus broke out, Gao hesitated for a second to continue working, but then picked up orders because he thought customers might be in need.
Due to the danger of person-to-person transmission, Gao must take care to avoid spreading viruses on his route around Beijing, including taking a regular health test and spending 20 minutes disinfecting his motorcycle and clothes each morning. Besides delivering goods, Gao once willingly cooked for an elderly customer who was living alone at her home.
It is the commitment of ordinary people like Gao that has made the biggest contributions in the fight against COVID-19.
4. What can we know from Paragraph 1
A. Gao was chosen on the cover of Time magazine due to his selfless commitment.
B. Gao was the only one to deliver food during the novel coronavirus outbreak.
C. Gao manages a delivery company.
D. Gao comes from a rich family.
5. Why did delivery orders dramatically increase according to the passage
A. People were too lazy to go out for meals.
B. There was a discount if people chose delivery orders.
C. People were asked to order food online by the government.
D. People were afraid of being infected with the novel coronavirus by going out.

【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Chinese delivery driver, Gao Zhixiao, was featured on the cover of Time magazine in March because of his remarkable sense of commitment（中国外卖配送员高治晓因其非凡的责任感登上了《时代》杂志3月份的封面）”是全文的主题句，结合全文内容，可知全文主要讲了一个外卖小哥疫情期间，无私的坚守岗位，为人们用心配送外卖，实属英雄行为，选项B：A Delivery Hero（一名快递员英雄）作为文章标题最为合适。故选B。

Volunteering means working for free to help someone else. Mrs. Obama says volunteering is very important. “It should be part of everyone’s life,” she says.
Many teens agree. They say that helping others feels great and makes a difference. These days, more teens volunteer than work for pay. Teens clean up parks, walk dogs at animal shelters, visit the elderly, and more.
Some cities, including Seattle, Chicago, and Washington D.C., require high school students to volunteer. Students must volunteer in order to graduate. The student volunteers learn new skills and help their communities.
Many parents subscribe to the idea, saying volunteering helps teens build job skills. But most teens don’t want to be forced to volunteer. They say they are busy. And they say volunteering is only fun if it’s a choice.
Read both sides of the debate and decide.
Pros:
1）Volunteering can help teens get into college or get a job;
2）Many cities and towns need help. Volunteers can help keep important programs going;
3）Not all teens will volunteer if it isn’t required. Students are demanded to have this record for graduation, and get ready for adult life.
Cons:
1）Most teens are already very busy with classes, homework, jobs, and sports. Forcing them to do more isn’t fair;
2）It should be up to each person. Helping doesn’t feel good if you must do it;
3）Finding a volunteer job isn’t always easy. Students shouldn’t be kept from graduating because of something they can’t control.
8. In Washington D.C., volunteering is ________.
A. on every citizen B. great to learn something new
C. fairly easy to find D. attached to high school graduation
9. In which aspect will the “Cons” side most disagree with the “Pros” side on volunteering
A. Whether it’s related to sports. B. Whether it helps the city to move.
C. Whether it is easily available to teens. D. Whether it is required to graduate.
10. This short passage is intended to ________.
A. show different opinions on volunteering
B. analyze the best quality to do volunteering
C. develop students’ determination to become volunteers
D. list possible approaches to taking part in volunteering jobs
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过米歇尔·奥巴马引出志愿者这个话题，进而介绍了志愿者工作的情况，并且讨论了学生是否要做志愿者。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“Some cities, including Seattle, Chicago, and Washington D.C., require high school students to volunteer. Students must volunteer in order to graduate.(一些城市，包括西雅图、芝加哥和华盛顿特区，要求高中生做志愿者。学生必须作志愿者工作才能毕业)”可知，在华盛顿特区志愿者和高中毕业相关。故选D。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据Pros部分的“Students are demanded to have this record for graduation, and get ready for adult life.(学生们被要求有这份（志愿者）记录才能毕业，并为成年生活做准备)”和Cons部分的“Students shouldn’t be kept from graduating because of something they can’t control.(学生不应该因为一些他们无法控制的事情而被阻止毕业)”推知，在志愿服务的问题上，“支持者”和“反对者”最有争议的是志愿者经历是否是毕业所必须的。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Many parents subscribe to the idea, saying volunteering helps teens build job skills. But most teens don’t want to be forced to volunteer. They say they are busy. And they say volunteering is only fun if it’s a choice.(许多家长赞同这一观点，称志愿服务有助于青少年培养工作技能。但大多数青少年并不想被迫去做志愿者。他们说他们很忙。他们说志愿活动只有在自愿的情况下才有趣)”以及下文陈述支持方和反对方各自的观点推知，本文的目的陈述关于志愿服务的不同观点。故选A。

【答案】Dear Mike，
I’m so proud that your city is going to hold such a speech competition to promote Australians’ awareness of Chinese culture. China has many traditional festivals, but I’d like to recommend the Lantern Festival most.
The Lantern Festival is celebrated on the 15th of the first month in the lunar calendar, which marks the end of Chinese New Year celebrations. During the festival, children go out at night carrying red lanterns symbolizing good fortune and solve riddles on lanterns. As early as the Western Han Dynasty, it started to become a festival of great significance. Nowadays, the festival has become popular in Western countries, especially in cities with large Chinese communities.
If you need more information about the festival, just feel free to ask me. Wish you success in the competition!
Yours, sincerely

Chinese delivery driver, Gao Zhixiao, was featured on the cover of Time magazine in March because of his sense of commitment. Alongside five others, he was picked by the magazine as one of heroes during the novel coronavirus outbreak.
Ever since COVID-19 broke out, many restaurants have shut down or switched to takeout-only services. Millions of people have been staying at home to avoid getting infected. “People choose to order food online or buy fruit and vegetables to cook at home,” Gao told Time. As a result, delivery orders dramatically increased, placing a huge burden on delivery companies.
Born into a poor family in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, Gao started to make a living in Beijing at age 16.After the novel coronavirus broke out, Gao hesitated for a second to continue working, but then picked up orders because he thought customers might be in need.
Due to the danger of person-to-person transmission, Gao must take care to avoid spreading viruses on his route around Beijing, including taking a regular health test and spending 20 minutes disinfecting his motorcycle and clothes each morning. Besides delivering goods, Gao once willingly cooked for an elderly customer who was living alone at her home.
It is the commitment of ordinary people like Gao that has made the biggest contributions in the fight against COVID-19
4. What can we know from Paragraph 1
A. Gao was chosen on the cover of Time magazine due to his selfless commitment.
B. Gao was the only one to deliver food during the novel coronavirus outbreak.
C. Gao manages a delivery company.
D. Gao comes from a rich family.
5. Why did delivery orders dramatically increase according to the passage
A. People were too lazy to go out for meals.
B. There was a discount if people chose delivery orders.
C. People were asked to order food online by the government.
D. People were afraid of being infected with the novel coronavirus by going out.
6. Which of the following words can best describe Gao Zhixiao
A. Hard-working and honest. B. Brave and humorous.
C. Selfless and warm-hearted. D. Positive and selfless.
7. What's the best title of this passage

C. A Brave Heart Beats Anything D. Never Say Never
C
Volunteering means working for free to help someone else. Mrs. Obama says volunteering is very important. “It should be part of everyone’s life,” she says.
Many teens agree. They say that helping others feels great and makes a difference. These days, more teens volunteer than work for pay. Teens clean up parks, walk dogs at animal shelters, visit the elderly, and more.
Some cities, including Seattle, Chicago, and Washington D.C., require high school students to volunteer. Students must volunteer in order to graduate. The student volunteers learn new skills and help their communities.
Many parents subscribe to the idea, saying volunteering helps teens build job skills. But most teens don’t want to be forced to volunteer. They say they are busy. And they say volunteering is only fun if it’s a choice.
Read both sides of the debate and decide.
Pros:
1）Volunteering can help teens get into college or get a job;
2）Many cities and towns need help. Volunteers can help keep important programs going;
3）Not all teens will volunteer if it isn’t required. Students are demanded to have this record for graduation, and get ready for adult life.
Cons:
1）Most teens are already very busy with classes, homework, jobs, and sports. Forcing them to do more isn’t fair;
2）It should be up to each person. Helping doesn’t feel good if you must do it;
3）Finding a volunteer job isn’t always easy. Students shouldn’t be kept from graduating because of something they can’t control.
8. In Washington D.C., volunteering is ________.
A. on every citizen B. great to learn something new
C. fairly easy to find D. attached to high school graduation
9. In which aspect will the “Cons” side most disagree with the “Pros” side on volunteering
A. Whether it’s related to sports. B. Whether it helps the city to move.
C. Whether it is easily available to teens. D. Whether it is required to graduate.
10. This short passage is intended to ________.
A. show different opinions on volunteering
B. analyze the best quality to do volunteering
C. develop students’ determination to become volunteers
D. list possible approaches to taking part in volunteering jobs
