Ever heard of the words “one man's waste is another man's treasure ” Nabeel Alam has taken that idea to a whole new level.
He and 26 other high school students from Durham, east of Toronto, Canada, started a company that turns unused clothes into practical reusable bags.
Nabeel said the clothing they use is in good condition, but is being thrown away because it's no longer useful or it' s out of style. By repurposing clothes（given by family and friends) heading for the garbage dump(垃圾场），Nabeel can work toward achieving his goal: cutting down on textile(纺织品）waste in Canada. "We give it a new purpose, "said Nabeel, the company' s president.
How does the company work The students take the clothes and put them in the wash. Then a team member cuts the clothes to match a pre-drawn outline. After that, the bags are sewn(缝制）together by a sewer who volunteers to help the company.
The team puts pictures of them on their website and Instagram so people can buy them for between $8 and $12. Nabeel said the goal of the company named Vivlio Amet—is to let people know how much textile waste leads to climate(气候）change.
But Vivlio Amet will only last for a little while longer. That’s because Vivlio Amet started in October 2019 as an 18-week Junior Achievement Program project. Through the program, volunteer advisers team up with students to help them start a temporary business from the ground up.
Though the program is completely separate from school, Nabeel said it doesn't feel like extra work. “I don’t treat it like a task. It’s something I like a lot,” Nabeel said. “If you want to be successful you need to work really hard at it.”
24. What does Vivlio Amet do
A. It rans a garbage dump.
B. It sells reusable old clothes.
C. It makes bags with old clothes.
D. It collects unused clothes for factories.
25. According to Nabeel, what is the purpose of Vivlio Amet
A. To make pocket money for him.
B To try his luck at running a company.
C. To call on people to avoid textile waste.
D. To set a good example for his classmates.
26. What does the underlined word “temporary” in paragraph 6 mean
A. School-based. B. Short-lived.
C. Privately-owned. D. Half-finished.
27. How did Nabeel feel about his work for the program
A. It was tiring. B. It was pioneering.
C. It was quite difficult. D. It was very enjoyable.
C
I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (给贴标签) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. So we both got tired of each other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened,I saw my shoes flying at me.I jumped to my feet and started yelling (叫喊). She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬行) under her covers (被子), sobbing (哭啼). Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart. Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression was such disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.”
Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the meaning of living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.
28. What made Kate so angry one evening
A. She couldn’t find her books.
B. She heard the author shouting loud.
C. She got the news that her grandma was ill
D. She saw the author’s shoes beneath her bed.
29. The author tidied up the room most probably because_____.
A. she was scared by Kate’s anger B. she hated herself for being so messy
C. she was asked by Kate to do so D. she wanted to show her care
30. How is Paragraph 1 mainly developed
A. By showing differences. B. By analyzing causes.
C. By describing a process. D. By following time order.
31 What might be the best title for the story
A. My Friend Kate B. Hard Work Pays Off
C Learning to be Roommates D. How to be Organized
D
Rumors(谣言): we’ve all heard some and we’ve all spread some. In more traditional times they shook entire families. Today, they circulate differently because the way we share information has also changed.
The fact is that rumors have great potential to upset things, whether socially or personally. We don’t enjoy being on the receiving end of one, since they usually don’t have good intentions.They are somewhat veiled(掩饰的) messages.
Normally rumors are oral messages: word of mouth. The paradox(自相矛盾) is that there is no evidence to support rumors, but the more people share it, the more they see it as true. To finish defining rumors, we think that they follow certain very clear laws. Secrecy: The source is unknown. There is also a proven phenomenon that human beings usually forget the source of a message before they forget its content. Certainty: We hardly question rumors simply because of the mental effort involved. On the other hand, no one likes to doubt a person who convinces us that the information they spread is true. Change: It acts like a tree. New rumors branch out to fill in the gaps left by the initial rumor.
Another property of rumors is that they tend to become viral. Each receiver is at the same time a potential transmitter of the information. The receiver often adds their own opinion. Their manner and tone of transmitting it also changes it.
How can we end rumors The answer is as simple as it is impossible: preventing people from communicating. A more realistic response is equally difficult, although less than the first one. It is that we should be critical of the information we receive. We should ask ourselves if the source is reliable. Ask (if possible) the person you heard it from whether they also trust the information. We should also think about if the rumor benefits someone, and if that someone started the rumor.
One rumor to be especially cautious of is a rumor about groups relatively unable to defend themselves. That’s why we say, “History is always told by the victors.” The first payment the defeated must make is to accept the victor’s version of the story.
32. What’s the author’s attitude towards rumors
A. Critical. B. Positive. C. Approving. D. Cautious.
33. What can we learn about rumors
A. We have all heard some and believed them.
B. We’re happy to be the receiving end of them.
C. They may have negative influence on society.
D. They often hide good intentions in the messages.
34. How are rumors like trees
A. Rumors keep changing, just as trees change their color.
B. Rumors are deeply rooted in reality, like tree roots in the earth.
C. New rumors have gaps, like the space between tree branches.
D. New rumors grow out of the original, like branches out of a trunk.
35. What does the underlined word “viral” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Something easily spread. B. Something acceptable.
C. Something easily defended. D. Something beneficial.

Ever heard of the words “one man's waste is another man's treasure ” Nabeel Alam has taken that idea to a whole new level.
He and 26 other high school students from Durham, east of Toronto, Canada, started a company that turns unused clothes into practical reusable bags.
Nabeel said the clothing they use is in good condition, but is being thrown away because it's no longer useful or it' s out of style. By repurposing clothes（given by family and friends) heading for the garbage dump(垃圾场），Nabeel can work toward achieving his goal: cutting down on textile(纺织品）waste in Canada. "We give it a new purpose, "said Nabeel, the company' s president.
How does the company work The students take the clothes and put them in the wash. Then a team member cuts the clothes to match a pre-drawn outline. After that, the bags are sewn(缝制）together by a sewer who volunteers to help the company.
The team puts pictures of them on their website and Instagram so people can buy them for between $8 and $12. Nabeel said the goal of the company named Vivlio Amet—is to let people know how much textile waste leads to climate(气候）change.
But Vivlio Amet will only last for a little while longer. That’s because Vivlio Amet started in October 2019 as an 18-week Junior Achievement Program project. Through the program, volunteer advisers team up with students to help them start a temporary business from the ground up.
Though the program is completely separate from school, Nabeel said it doesn't feel like extra work. “I don’t treat it like a task. It’s something I like a lot,” Nabeel said. “If you want to be successful you need to work really hard at it.”
24. What does Vivlio Amet do
A. It rans a garbage dump.
B. It sells reusable old clothes.
C. It makes bags with old clothes.
D. It collects unused clothes for factories.
25. According to Nabeel, what is the purpose of Vivlio Amet
A. To make pocket money for him.
B. To try his luck at running a company.
C. To call on people to avoid textile waste.
D. To set a good example for his classmates.
26. What does the underlined word “temporary” in paragraph 6 mean
A. School-based. B. Short-lived.
C. Privately-owned. D. Half-finished.
27. How did Nabeel feel about his work for the program
A. It was tiring. B. It was pioneering.
C. It was quite difficult. D. It was very enjoyable.
【答案】24. C 25. C 26. B 27. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了纳比尔创办了名为Vivlio amet的公司的目的和机制。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“He and 26 other high school students from Durham, east of Toronto, Canada, started a company that turns unused clothes into practical reusable bags.（他和其他26名来自加拿大多伦多东部达勒姆的高中生创办了一家公司，把没用过的衣服变成实用的可重复使用的袋子。）”可知，Vivlio Amet它是用旧衣服做包。故选C。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“By repurposing clothes（given by family and friends) heading for the garbage dump(垃圾场），Nabeel can work toward achieving his goal: cutting down on textile(纺织品）waste in Canada.（通过将(家人和朋友给的)扔进垃圾堆的衣服重新使用，纳比尔可以朝着实现他的目标努力：在加拿大减少纺织废料。）”可知，根据纳比尔的说法，Vivlio Amet的目的是号召人们避免纺织品浪费。故选C。
【26题详解】
词义猜测题。根据前文“That’s because Vivlio Amet started in October 2019 as an 18-week Junior Achievement Program project.（这是因为Vivlio Amet于2019年10月启动，是一个为期18周的青少年成就项目。）”可知，这个项目很短暂，所以temporary意为“短暂的”。故选B。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“I don’t treat it like a task. It’s something I like a lot,（我不把它当成一项任务。这是我非常喜欢的）”可推断，纳比尔对他为项目所做的工作感到非常愉快。故选D。
C
I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (给贴标签) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. So we both got tired of each other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened,I saw my shoes flying at me.I jumped to my feet and started yelling (叫喊). She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬行) under her covers (被子), sobbing (哭啼). Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart. Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression was such disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.”
Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the meaning of living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.
28. What made Kate so angry one evening
A. She couldn’t find her books.
B. She heard the author shouting loud.
C. She got the news that her grandma was ill
D. She saw the author’s shoes beneath her bed.

C. By describing a process. D. By following time order.
31. What might be the best title for the story
A. My Friend Kate B. Hard Work Pays Off
C. Learning to be Roommates D. How to be Organized
【答案】28. D 29. D 30. A 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲的是作者和室友Kate之间虽然并不总是意见一致，但却最终学会了让步，清理和坚持的故事。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!”(一天晚上，战争爆发了。凯特走进房间。很快，我听到她尖叫道:“把你的鞋子拿走!为什么在我床底下！”)”可知，一天晚上凯特在床底下看到了作者的鞋子一事让她很生气，故选D。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬行) under her covers (被子), sobbing (哭啼). Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart. Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side.(从她谈话的结尾，我马上就能看出她奶奶病得很重。挂断电话后，她迅速爬进被窝，抽泣着。显然，这种事她不应该独自承受。突然，一种温暖的同情之情在我心中升起。慢慢地，我收集铅笔，拿回书本，整理床铺，擦袜子，扫地，甚至在她身边。)”可知，凯特的奶奶病了，作者整理房间很可能是因为她想表达她的关心，故选D。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (给贴标签) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk.(我从来都不太整洁，而我的室友凯特却非常有条理。她的每件东西都有自己的位置，但我的东西总是藏在某个地方。她甚至把每样东西都贴上标签。我总是寻找一切。随着时间的推移，凯特变得更整洁，而我变得更凌乱。她把我的脏衣服推开，我把书放在她整洁的桌子上。)”可知，从第一段我们可以看出作者和凯特之间很大的不同，因此第一段是通过展示差异来展开的，故选A。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段的“Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the meaning of living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.(那一年剩下的时间里，凯特和我一直是室友。我们并不总是意见一致，但我们学会了共同生活的意义：让步，清理和坚持。)”可知，本文主要讲的是作者和室友Kate之间虽然并不总是意见一致，但却最终学会了让步，清理和坚持的故事，也就是她们都学会了做一个好的室友，因此最好的标题是C选项“Learning to be Roommates(学习成为室友)”。故选C。
D
Rumors(谣言): we’ve all heard some and we’ve all spread some. In more traditional times they shook entire families. Today, they circulate differently because the way we share information has also changed.
The fact is that rumors have great potential to upset things, whether socially or personally. We don’t enjoy being on the receiving end of one, since they usually don’t have good intentions.They are somewhat veiled(掩饰的) messages.
Normally rumors are oral messages: word of mouth. The paradox(自相矛盾) is that there is no evidence to support rumors, but the more people share it, the more they see it as true. To finish defining rumors, we think that they follow certain very clear laws. Secrecy: The source is unknown. There is also a proven phenomenon that human beings usually forget the source of a message before they forget its content. Certainty: We hardly question rumors simply because of the mental effort involved. On the other hand, no one likes to doubt a person who convinces us that the information they spread is true. Change: It acts like a tree. New rumors branch out to fill in the gaps left by the initial rumor.
Another property of rumors is that they tend to become viral. Each receiver is at the same time a potential transmitter of the information. The receiver often adds their own opinion. Their manner and tone of transmitting it also changes it.
How can we end rumors The answer is as simple as it is impossible: preventing people from communicating. A more realistic response is equally difficult, although less than the first one. It is that we should be critical of the information we receive. We should ask ourselves if the source is reliable. Ask (if possible) the person you heard it from whether they also trust the information. We should also think about if the rumor benefits someone, and if that someone started the rumor.
One rumor to be especially cautious of is a rumor about groups relatively unable to defend themselves. That’s why we say, “History is always told by the victors.” The first payment the defeated must make is to accept the victor’s version of the story.
32. What’s the author’s attitude towards rumors
A. Critical. B. Positive. C. Approving. D. Cautious.
33. What can we learn about rumors
A. We have all heard some and believed them.
B. We’re happy to be the receiving end of them.
C. They may have negative influence on society.
D. They often hide good intentions in the messages.
34. How are rumors like trees
A. Rumors keep changing, just as trees change their color.
B. Rumors are deeply rooted in reality, like tree roots in the earth.
C. New rumors have gaps, like the space between tree branches.
D. New rumors grow out of the original, like branches out of a trunk.
35. What does the underlined word “viral” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Something easily spread. B. Something acceptable.
C. Something easily defended. D. Something beneficial.
【答案】32 A 33. C 34. D 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了谣言的危害、特点及怎样避免谣言。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The fact is that rumors have great potential to upset things, whether socially or personally.(事实上，谣言有很大的潜力扰乱事情，无论是社会还是个人。)”可知，作者认为谣言会对个人生活和社会造成混乱，由此可推测出，作者对谣言是批评的态度。故选A。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The fact is that rumors have great potential to upset things, whether socially or personally.(事实上，谣言有很大的潜力扰乱事情，无论是社会还是个人。)”可知，谣言会对个人生活和社会造成混乱，给社会带来不良影响。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Change: It acts like a tree. New rumors branch out to fill in the gaps left by the initial rumor.(变化：它就像一棵树。新的谣言层出不穷，以填补最初谣言留下的空白。)”可推知，新的谣言从原来的谣言上冒出来，就像树枝从树干冒出来一样。故选D。
【35题详解】
词义猜测题。根据下文“Each receiver is at the same time a potential transmitter of the information. The receiver often adds their own opinion. Their manner and tone of transmitting it also changes it.(每个接收者同时也是信息的潜在发送者。接受者经常添加自己的观点。他们传递信息的方式和语气也改变了信息。)”可知，每个接收者同时又是信息潜在的发送者，接收者还会添加自己的观点或改变信息。由此可推测出，画线词所在句表示“谣言的另一个特点是，它们往往会像病毒一样传播开来”。viral指像病毒一样容易传播。故选A。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要论述了家意义。
【56题详解】
考查名词。句意：然而，当激烈的争论和冰冷的沉默弥漫在空气中时，家也可能是一个充满压力的地方。空处需填名词作when引导的时间状语从句的主语，argument意为“争吵”，前面没有冠词限定，既可以作可数名词又可以作不可数名词。故填argument(s)。
【57题详解】
考查省略句。句意：当你的身高比你的朋友高时，你可能会感到焦虑，并担心其他身体变化，如体重问题和皮肤问题。when引导的时间状语从句的主语和主句的主语一致，可以省略从句的主语和be动词，完整的从句是“when you are shooting up in height compared to your friends”，省略you are，空处需填现在分词shooting。故填shooting。
【58题详解】
考查形容词。句意：此外，你可能想要更独立，为自己承担更多的责任。be动词后面需填形容词independent，作表语。故填independent。
【59题详解】
考查连词。句意：如果父母没有注意到你的变化和需求，或者把你当成孩子，却期望你表现得像个成年人，你就会对自己失去信心，你们的关系也会陷入冰点。上文提到“把你当成孩子”，下文提到“期望你表现得像个成年人”，上下文之间为转折关系，需用并列连词but/yet连接。故填but/yet。
【60题详解】
考查动词时态。句意同上。根据条件状语从句谓语“fail”可知，if引导的条件状语从句使用一般现在时，主句使用一般将来时。故填will lose。
【61题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：处理这种情况的关键是真诚和持续的沟通。由固定搭配“the key to doing sth.”可知，to为介词，后面接动名词作宾语。故填handling。
【62题详解】
考查副词。句意：你们有必要彼此敞开心扉，经常谈论你们的感受。修饰动词短语talk about，需用副词regularly，作状语。故填regularly。
63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：记住，与父母和孩子之间的紧张关系所产生的压力作斗争是完全正常的，你和你的父母可以共同努力改善你们的关系。It is adj.+to do…为固定句型，it作形式主语，不定式作真正的主语。故填to struggle。
【64题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意同上。分析句式可知，此句为and连接的两个that引导的宾语从句，第二个that不能省略。故填that。
【65题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：正如冰心所说：“家是消融不快乐和烦恼的地方。”空处引导限制性定语从句，先行词是place，关系词替代先行词在从句中作地点状语，应用关系副词where。故填where。

67. 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。续写的词数应为150左右。
Once upon a time, there was a big mango (芒果) tree. A little boy loved to come and play around it everyday. He climbed to the treetops, ate the mangoes, and took a nap (小睡) under the shadow...He loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him. As time went by, the little boy grew up, and he no longer played around the tree.
One day, the boy came back to the tree with a sad look on his face.“Come and play with me ,” the tree asked the boy.“I am no longer a kid. I don’t play around trees any more, ” the boy replied. “I want toys. I need money to buy them.” “Sorry, I don’t have money...but you can pick all my mangoes and sell them so that you will have money.” The boy was so excited. He picked all the mangoes on the tree and left happily. The boy didn’t come back. The tree was sad.
One day, the boy grown into a man returned. The tree was so excited.“Come and play with me ,” the tree said.“I don’t have time to play. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help me “Sorry, I don’t have a house, but you can chop off my branches to build your house.” So the man cut all the branches off the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see him happy but the boy didn’t come back afterward. The tree was again lonely and sad.
One hot summer day, the man returned and the tree was delighted.“Come and play with me!” The tree said.“I am sad and getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat ”“Use my trunk to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy.” So the man cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and didn’t come back for a long time.
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
Finally, the man returned after he had been gone for so many years.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The tree in the story represents (代表)our parents.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Finally, the man returned after he had been gone for so many years. He was too old to go out to play or to make money. The man just wanted to relax under the tree and chat with the childhood playmate, while enjoying the sunshine. But the tree was dead, only its dead roots rotted away beneath the ground. Thinking of the mangoes ,branches and the trunk offered by the tree, the man couldn’t help bursting into tears.
The tree in the story represents our parents. When we are young children, we rely on them to play with us. When we grow a little older ,we depend on them to grow up and have a good education. And when we really grow up, we leave them to have our own family and to make a living. But seldom do we come back to pay them a visit. Being busy is always the excuse. We owe too much to our parents, so remember to give them love and care before it’s too late.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，运用了拟人手法，把我们的父母比喻成一棵树，歌颂了父母的无私和伟大。从前，有一个小男孩，他很喜欢在一棵芒果树下玩耍，芒果树也很喜欢他。但随着时间的推移，男孩长大了，不再在树下玩耍了，芒果树感到悲伤和孤独。但当男孩遇到困难时，芒果树毫不犹豫地将自己的果实、树枝和树干给了男孩的故事。
【详解】1. 1. 段落续写
①由第一段首句内容“最终，在离开这么多年之后，那个人终于回来了。”可知，本段可以写年迈的男孩终于要休息了，垂死的树干不能再提供什么，但是正好适合他靠在那里休息。
②由第二段首句内容“故事中的树代表我们的父母。”可知，本段可以描写文章主旨，借这个故事来歌颂父母的无私和伟大。
2. 续写线索：男孩回来了——树说没有可以给的东西了——男孩仅可以靠着树干休息——大树隐喻父母为我们做出的奉献——父母为我们奉献，我们要感恩
3. 词类激活
行为类
①赚钱：make money/earn money
②提供：offer/provide/supply
③依靠：rely on/depend on/count on
情绪类
①突然哭起来：burst into tears/burst out crying
②关心：care/concern/worry
【点睛】【高分句型1】A The man just wanted to relax under the tree and chat with the childhood playmate, while enjoying the sunshine. (运用了状语从句的省略)
【高分句型2】But seldom do we come back to pay them a visit. (运用了部分倒装)
