In August 2019, two citizen scientists, Sunniva Sorby and Hilde FalunStrom landed on Spitsbergen, in Norway’s Svalbard island group. They planned to work through the winter, then go home in May 2020. But their ship could not come because of COVID-19 shutdowns. For fourteen months, they lived in a small cabin on an icy island near the North Poles. Sometimes, hurricane-force winds forced freezing air through the cabin’s slats. Once, wind ripped the door open. Sunniva and Hilde couldn’t close it until the storm ended! Between storms, silence settled on the cabin. Then, they could hear the crunch-crunch-crunch of polar bears walking in the snow.
Their days started at 7 am and ended after midnight. Each morning, they wore down-stuffed jackets and pants as they waited for the wood-burning stove to heat the cabin. They cut pieces of freshwater ice to melt for drinking, cooking and bathing. For the stove, they gathered driftwood. They cooked their meals, including pizza! These tasks used up large stretches of each day. They also kept in touch with schools and other groups. They wrote blog entries and answered e-mails. For fun, they danced to music, exercised, practiced yoga and read.
“We are efficient here,” Sunniva wrote. “We have a routine, habits, and systems. We have time for what matters most living safely while making a contribution to our understanding of a changing world.” They conducted lots of experiments. They gathered data on climate change, using a drone (无人机) to measure sea-ice temperatures. They observed wildlife and tested new technologies, including an electric snowmobile.
To stay four extra months, they had to eat smaller amounts of food so they wouldn’t run out. “It was difficult being here, so far away from everything,” Sunniva wrote. “Food, shelter, and warmth are often taken for granted until you are on your own.” But, they wrote, “We have packed our patience, our smiles, and good spirits.” And they enjoyed the adventure, finding ordinary miracles every day.
24．What can we learn about the two scientists on Spitsbergen
A．They lived a boring life there. B．They could always keep the door closed.
C．They brought drinking water with them. D．They stayed in contact with other groups.
25．What did Sunniva and Hilde do according to Paragraph 3
A．They watched the wildlife carefully. B．They invented an electric snowmobile.
C．They conducted experiments on drones. D．They collected data of new technologies.

A．Well begun, half done. B．It’s easier said than done.
C．Every cloud has a silver lining. D．A friend in need is a friend indeed.

Favored by many internet influencers, the city of Zibo, once a sleepy industrial city, has gone viral on Chinese social media platforms. The topic Zibo “barbecue” on Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok, was played 4.96 billion times since the city stormed the Internet for over a month. On 29 April, Zibo Railway Station saw a record 87,000 train trips to and from the station, according to Chinese news website Caixin.
Local authorities in Zibo have been quick to respond to the sudden flow of visitors. A barbecue zone that can accommodate 10,000 people, featuring live band performances, was built overnight. Volunteers have been dispatched to the railway station to offer advice and recommendations to tourists. Designated (指定的) buses and trains bring tourists to and from the hottest barbecue spots. The government has even threatened to punish profiteering hotels who raise prices by more than 50% .
What makes Zibo barbecue so special is that it does offer a distinctive (独特的) dining experience. The skewers (烤串) are 70-80 percent cooked before they are brought to the table, where diners can finish cooking them on their own stoves, offering an immersive dining experience.
Zibo’s low prices are also appealing. Many college students in Shandong have made concrete plans to enjoy Zibo barbecue at the least cost, and traveling back and forth by train for only 200 yuan ($29.1). So what better way to attract adventurous, hungry college students with a tight budget other than “tasty barbecue that makes you full for only 50 yuan!”
The locals seem happy enough about the arrival of visitors and shy away from hot spots to make space for outsiders, saying they are proud that their hometown has gained nationwide fame.
28．What is the first paragraph mainly about
A．The history of Zibo.
B．The influence of social media.
C．The newfound popularity of Zibo.
D．The crowdedness of Zibo Railway Station.
29．What makes Zibo barbecue attractive to college students
A．Unique dining experience. B．Convenient transportation.
C．Wonderful performances. D．Affordable prices.
30．What is the local people’s attitude to the arrival of tourists
A．Favorable. B．Worried. C．Unconcerned. D．Critical.
31．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A．To promote an industrial city.
B．To introduce barbecue in Zibo.
C．To explain how to attract tourists.
D．To show the popularity of barbecue.
D
With kids going back to school, many parents are concerned about how their children will manage their behavior for eight hours a day. They may keep a watchful eye on their phone in case they receive a phone call from the school regarding their children’s behavior. If a child has difficulty controlling his words and behavior, a daily behavior report card may be a helpful option.
A daily behavior report card can be as simple as a chart on the child’s desk where his teacher provides ratings based on his behavior. The chart might be broken down into each class in a day. At the end of each class, the teacher will rate the students based on how well they did in meeting their behavioral goals. For example, a child might get scored on a 1—10 scale. Students will have a goal score to earn after each class. If they earn their goal score, they will get an instant experience-based reward.
Some advantages of the daily behavior report card are that it makes classroom expectations clear and gives kids frequent feedback on how they did and what they need to do to improve next time. While many teachers often promise a reward for good behavior at the end of the school day, this possibility of a reward is often too far for many kids to care. Instead, by offering a more prompt reward after each class that a child’s behavioral goal is met, their motivation level can stay high to control their attention and behavior.
Teachers are busy during the school days. They often have to manage difficult behavior in class and they lose lots of the classroom instruction time. However, using a daily behavior report card may be able to prevent difficult behavior from occurring in the first place. Meanwhile it will also improve the teacher-parent communication, which helps parents track and solve their children’s problems.
32．What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the daily behavior report card
A．Its basis. B．Its result. C．Its rating . D．Its use.
33．Why can the daily behavior report card help children behave well in class
A．It includes all the study rules in class.
B．It meets the demands of children in class.
C．It offers them expectations and feedback in class.
D．It provides a great reward for those with high scores.
34．What does the underlined word “prompt” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Immediate. B．Reasonable. C．Necessary. D．Minimum.
35．What does the author think of the daily behavior report card
A．Multi-beneficial. B．Universally true. C．Widely available. D．Quite complicated.

Why Hard Work Is the Key to Success
Hard work and success go hand in hand. 36 However, you have to spend a lot of time working hard for success to build up over time gradually. So you’ll have to decide if you want to endure the pain of hard work, or look back and regret never having tried That said, here are some points to consider before you make your choice.
Everything Comes at a Price
Success, for the vast majority of people, does not come without hard work. 37 You have to push past the obstacles and hold the goal in your mind, realizing that each step forward is one closer to achieving it.
Hard Work Helps You Make Your Luck
If you are an average Joe and simply idle your way through life, you are likely just a spectator (观察者) waiting for something to happen or fall into your lap. The truth of the matter is that the odds of this happening are improbable. Success will not happen suddenly, but with the right amount of strong determination and hard work, your luck tends to get better. 38
Hard Work Promotes Discipline
It is not always going to be easy, and even the most determined people may give up and admit that they are defeated and stop trying. 39 Discipline ensures that you still get up and you are determined to see the result confidently.
You Harvest What You Sow
40 The same goes for hard work. As you make a big effort each day and focus on your goals, you are consistently approaching your future success. As you begin to see the progress you have made, you will begin to feel a sense of achievement and pride in your work.
A．Life is certainly full of challenges.
B．That is where discipline comes into play.
C．Obtaining success without hard work is impossible.
D．When opportunities come your way, do not let them pass you by.
E．If you invest money over time wisely, you will make a good profit eventually.
F．You have to wake up early and head to work even when you do not feel like it.
G．When you hit a failure, the first thing coming to mind is whether you worked hard.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Three years ago, Mark moved out of his mother’s house after landing a well -paying job in another city. He thought living 1500 miles away from his elderly mother, Cassandra, would work out because he planned to visit her monthly.
Mark stuck to his visiting plan during the first year. However, with the amount of work increasing, he couldn’t find time to visit his mother monthly. He started to only speak to her on the phone, telling her about his life. Soon, Mark became busy and made a few phone calls to Cassandra. He didn’t even remember the last time they spoke on the phone.
One day, while working in his office, Mark heard his phone ring.
“Mom’s 70th birthday!” the reminder on his phone read.
“Oh, dear. How can I forget my mom’s birthday again ” Mark shook his head as he turned the reminder alarm off. “I can’t keep disappointing her like this. Let me see how fast I can get to her place.”
After checking his work schedule (日程计划), Mark realized that he could make it to his mother’s house by the evening if he left the office in an hour. He quickly finished the work and left the office without wasting another minute.
On his way, he stopped at a store and bought his mother’s favorite cake. He also bought her flowers and a few gifts. Although he wanted to call her, Mark thought it would be better to surprise her because he was sure that she wasn’t expecting him to visit her. After all, this was the first time that he had done something like this in a long time.
Mark finally arrived at the mother’s house. However, when he knocked at the door, no one answered. Puzzled, he opened the door with his key and entered. Nobody was there. He searched the house worriedly, only to find an envelope covered with dust on the table. Recognizing his mother’s handwriting (笔迹), Mark opened the envelope at once. It turned out that Cassandra had left her house and joined a local retirement community because she felt lonely.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
In the letter, she also expressed her love for Mark and the hope of seeing him.

Paragraph 1:
In the letter, she also expressed her love for Mark and the hope of seeing him. But since Mark never gave her enough time, she didn’t want to trouble him anymore. Mark felt sorry for not giving enough care and attention to his mother. Tears welled up in his eyes. He immediately rushed out of the house and headed towards the retirement community mentioned in the letter. Upon arrival, he got out of his car, holding the flowers in one hand and the birthday cake in the other.
Paragraph 2:
After asking about his mother at the front desk, he was glad to know she was still there. Seeing his mother, Mark ran to hand her the flowers and hug her tightly, saying how regretful he was for not visiting her earlier. Cassandra was both surprised and happy to see her son suddenly. She patted her son’s back and said she always understood him. Mark celebrated his mother’s birthday with her friends at the retirement community. That day, he realized the importance of having family around and promised to visit his mother regularly, no matter how busy he was.
