Do you know there are apps that make it easy to help others, our planet, and ourselves, so we lead more giving and meaningful lives Check out four of the best ones and spring into action!
Be My Eyes
This app connects visually impaired people in need of some help with sighted people with a few minutes of spare time to offer through video calls. The help needed may be something like finding a missing object in the home. This app is available in over 150 countries and in more than 150 languages. Volunteers register and de tail which languages they speak. When someone needs help, a message reminder appears on their device.
Zooniverse
Want to help with cutting edge global research Zooniverse is an app with millions of registered volunteers that lets you become a citizen researcher! Help professional scientific researchers through your mobile device or the companion website. Global volunteers taking part in this exciting crowd sourcing project typically don’t have a scientific background but their contribution is highly valued.
My Selfless Act
This is a social networking site and app promoting the idea of giving back to the community through volunteering. It offers information on local volunteering opportunities globally and encourages the sharing of ideas and activities.
Aloe Bud
Created by someone who struggles with his mental illness, routine and remembering daily self-care, Aloe Bud is a welcoming and simple “self-care pocket companion” app. It gently reminds users about self-care activities in physical, mental and emotional needs. These reminders relate to anything from drinking enough water to taking screen breaks to maintaining connections.

I’ve long believed that positive living isn’t about being optimistic every minute of every day. That kind of permanently happy state can’t be the goal, because it’s impossible to achieve.
It turns out that psychological research finds true happiness comes from authentic positivity, and authentic positivity comes from emotional flexibility.
Being flexible emotionally means being open to the full range of emotional experiences, including the challenging ones like anger, disappointment and sadness. Emotional flexibility means being able to shift behaviors and mindsets to meet different situation al needs, and adapting when circumstances change.
However, emotionally flexible people are not chameleons(变色龙)whose outlook changes based on which way the wind is blowing. Instead, emotional flexibility is a skill that helps people judge the complexities of daily life, and stick to their deeply held values.
I’ve learned a new word that I’d like to share with you: eudaimonia(幸福感). Eudaimonia is the opposite of hedonism(享乐主义), the idea that happiness comes from the constant pursuit of pleasure and avoidance of pain. Eudaimonia, by contrast, encourages us to pursue meaning and authenticity, growth and honest joy. Both are philosophical approaches to happiness, and recent psychological thought is leaning toward eudaimonia as a more sustainable, satisfying model.
Eudaimonia was first mentioned by Aristotle, who got the term from the Greek word “daimon,” which means “true nature.” To me, walking a positive path means accepting that we each have positive true nature and permanent goodness. What we learn from the concept of eudaimonia is that we are best equipped to realize this nature when we are emotionally honest and flexible.
24.What is the author’s belief
A.People should live alone.
B.People can’t always be happy.
C.People can’t always achieve their goals.
D.People should pursue true achievements.
25.What do emotionally flexible people commit themselves to
A.Their strongly believed values. B.Their different needs.
C.Permanent happiness. D.The pursuit of hedonism.
26.How can people gain eudaimonia according to the author
A.By being honest to others. B.By changing true nature.
C.By keeping realistically optimistie. D.By pursuing pleasure constantly.
27.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A.What is the meaning of eudaimonia
B.What should we do to keep positive
C.How can we keep happy forever
D.Why can’t people be happy all the time
C
Buddy or Friendship Benches(长椅)are needed because playgrounds can be lonely places some times. When a school places the bench, they teach a little lesson to the kids on how it is to be used. Then when a child sits on the bench, it sends out a message to others that basic ally says, “Hey, I’m alone right now and would welcome the company(陪伴)of others.” Kids in the playground see this and from their training, they see there is a fellow student in ne ed. They are encouraged to come over and sit on the bench and make a new friend.
Benches like this have been around for a while now in many schools. But in Ireland, they are trying to do something different with the m. This school in Cork in the south of Ireland is the 247th to get benches from a social organization called “Buddy Bench Ireland” that doesn’t just provide schools with benches, but also runs special projects with trained child psychiatrists(精神病专家). They use the bench as an opportunity to start conversations about mental health. They talk about the importance of knowing and understanding your feelings and those of others.
Judith Ashton, a co-founder of Buddy Bench Ireland said, “T he children need to understand what the bench is about, what it represents —friendship, understanding, listening to each other and the most important thing is that it’s important to express feelings.”
But do children really use the bench It’s a matter of great public concern. Sinead Mcgilloway from Maynooth University carried out a study and said, “We found that 40% of the children told us that they had actually used the benches at the time of the study. And over 90% said that they would talk to a child if that child was sitting on the bench. So, there’s nothing to worry about.”
Children’s mental health and safety at school is increasingly a concern in many countries. I n Ireland, they’re hoping these benches will no t only tackle problems like school violence and school bullying(校园暴力和校园欺凌), but also give students the confidence to open up about t heir feelings.
28.According to the passage, buddy benches might ______
A.make students feel relaxed
B.help students feeling lonely to find friends
C.be a symbol of psychology classes
D.appear in schools filled with problem children
29.The organization “Buddy Bench Ireland” ______.
A.makes buddy benches more popular
B.brings more new-pattern benches to schools
C.encourages more students to choose buddy benches
D.provides psychological care projects along
30.In Judith Ashton’s opinion, what students most need to know is ______.
A.how to understand each other
B.what buddy benches are about
C.the importance of expressing themselves
D.the necessity of listening to their friends
31.From what Sinead Mcgilloway said, we can know that ______.
A.60% of the children in the study disliked these benches
B.over 90% of the children in the study once felt lonely
C.he once worried about children with mental problems
D.the public don’t have to worry about the use of buddy benches
D
Animals can adapt quickly to survive unfavorable environmental conditions. Evidence is mounting to show that plants can, too. A paper published in the journal Trends in Plant Science details how plants are rapidly adapting to the effects of climate change, and how they are passing down these adaptations to their offspring(后代).
Plants are facing more environmental stresses than ever. For example, climate change is making winters shorter in many locations, and plants are responding. “Many plants require a minimum period of cold in order to set up their environmental clock to define their flowering time,” says Martinelli, a plant geneticist at the University of Florence.“As cold seasons shorten, plants have adapted to require shorter periods of cold to delay flowering. These mechanisms allow plants to avoid flowering in periods when they have fewer opportunities to reproduce.”
Because plants don’t have neural(神经的)networks, their memory is based entirely on cellular(细胞的), molecular(分子的), and biochemical networks. These networks make up what the researchers call somatic memory(体细胞记忆). “It allows plants to recognize the occurrence of a previous environmental condition and to react accordingly,” says Martinelli.
These somatic memories can then be passed to the plants’ offspring via epigenetics(表现遗传). “Several examples demonstrate the existence of molecular mechanisms modulating plant memory to environmental stresses and affecting the adaptation of offspring to these stresses,” says Martinelli.
Going forward, Martinelli hopes to understand even more about the genes that are being passed down. “We are particularly interested in decoding the epigenetic alphabet without changes in DNA sequence(序列),” he says. “This is especially important when we consider the rapid climate change, we observe today that every living organism, including plants, needs to quickly adapt to survive.”
32.What adaptations have plants made to shortened cold seasons
A.They have shortened their flowering time.
B.They have got more chances to reproduce.
C.They have avoided flowering in cold seasons.
D.They have adjusted their environmental clock.
33.What can we learn about somatic memory
A.It is entirely based on neural networks.
B.It can help the plants’ offspring to survive.
C.It can help relieve environmental stresses.
D.It disturbs the plants’ biochemical networks.
34.What does the underlined word “modulating” mean in paragraph 4
A.Adjusting. B.Treasuring. C.Recording. D.Sharing.
35.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A.Plants are smart about flowering time
B.Plants can also adapt to climate change
C.Environmental stresses challenge plants
D.Mysteries of plant genes are to be unfolded

Why are people taking pictures of their faces, their hobbies and their food Why do we capture every single moment 36
The special thing about photography is that we can capture moments anywhere and anytime. All we need for this is our smartphone—something that rarely leaves our side.
37 Every single one of us can get started with this wonderful hobby, no matter if your goal is to sell your photographs or just to keep them for your own viewing pleasure.
Every picture you take is a personal story. There is no painting without context(背景). However, unlike a painting, you don’t need to spend hours of your time on it. 38
If you prefer to share your pictures with the world, you can also get immediate feedback(反馈). 39 Pictures connect and show the people around us what’s going on in our life right now.
The most amazing thing for me is without question the ability to capture every single click of a button. 40 It’s crazy how the emotions of one single picture can throw you back in time. We can connect to our past, no matter where we are and preserve those memories that are most meaningful.
A.Camera phones allow us to upload our pictures in a few seconds.
B.Photography is an amazing tool to appreciate the world around us and to stay in the moment.
C.I can’t really give you an answer, because I also like taking photos of everything.
D.Compared to other forms of visual art, you don’t need any special talent for it.
E.This enables me to remember every experience as it happens.
F.It is a way to express yourself through different photographs.
G.It is a way to allow each of you to become an artist.

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。
We met Max at the pickup area of Alaska Airlines. A standard poodle(鬈毛狗)born on Valentine’s Day in 2002, he came to us in a small blue box. We had adopted him from a friend, who raised many dogs.
We were a sweet little family—me, my husband, and our children, Sophie and Jake. But for years I’d felt as if we wouldn’t really be complete until we had a dog. Also, my husband travelled for some 200 days a year on business, and I knew I’d feel safer with a large animal sleeping by the door.
When we opened the box, we saw him. With his curly black hair and intelligent eyes, Max was beautiful. He was so small that he fit into the palm(手掌)of my hand, his big paws(爪子)lapping over the sides. He was also scared. As I pulled him close, I felt his heart pound and wondered if we’d done the right thing, taking him from his mother. But it was too late. Sophie and Jake were already fighting over who would hold him next.
Over the following months, we spent endless hours watching Max play with his toy or run around the living room. Like most poodles, he was smart. He mastered house-training quickly and never chewed on our furniture or shoes. He considered himself one of us.
Some days after school, I’d find Jake curled up with Max inside his box. When I suggested that my son get out of the dog box, Jake yelled, “Max wants me in here! We’re brothers!”
By his first birthday, Max had grown into a 50-pound guard dog. He manned the front door like a soldier, barking fiercely at other dogs walking by. I felt safe with him there, especially when my husband was away. Sometimes, when I was missing my husband a lot, I held Max close.
Many years later, my husband passed away. My kids grew up and went to university. They worked in other cities after graduation.
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。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述的是植物像动物一样,可以迅速地适应不利的条件,同时分析了植物能快速适应不利条件,并将这些适应传递给下一代的原因。
32.D 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“For example, climate change is making winters shorter in many locations, and plants are responding. “Many plants require a minimum period of cold in order to set up their environmental clock to define their flowering time,”…(例如,气候变化使许多地方的冬季缩短,植物正在做出反应。“许多植物需要最短的寒冷时间,以便设置环境时钟来定义它们的开花时间,”……)”可知,为了适应缩短的寒冷季节,植物会设置环境时钟来定义开花时间。故选D项。
33.B 推理判断题。根据第四段首句“These somatic memories can then be passed to the plants’ offspring via epigenetics(表现遗传).(然后,这些体细胞记忆可以通过表观遗传学传递给植物的后代。”可知,这些体细胞记忆通过表现遗传学传给下一代,由此可以判断,体细胞记忆可以帮助下一代生存下来。故选B项。
34.A 词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“As cold seasons shorten, plants have adapted to require shorter periods of cold to delay flowering. These mechanisms allow plants to avoid flowering in periods when they have fewer opportunities to reproduce.(随着寒冷季节的缩短,植物已经适应了需要较短的寒冷时间来延迟开花。这些机制允许植物避免在繁殖机会较少的时期开花。)”可知,这些机制使植物能够调整自己在繁殖机会少的时期避免开花,这是植物调整适应环境变化的结果,划线单词所在的“Several examples demonstrate the existence of molecular mechanisms modulating plant memory to environmental stresses and affecting the adaptation of offspring to these stresses(几个例子表明,存在调节植物记忆对环境胁迫并影响后代对这些胁迫的适应的分子机制。)”谈论的是有几种个例子表明存在这样的“分子机制”调节植物记忆来适应环境的变化,与第二段阐述的与“这些机制”允许植物调节花期适应环境的内容相当,故该单词意为“调节”。故选A项。
35.B 主旨大意题。根据首段中的“Animals can adapt quickly to survive unfavorable environmental conditions. Evidence is mounting to show that plants can, too.(动物可以快速适应,以在不利的环境条件下生存。越来越多的证据表明,植物也可以。)”并结合下文围绕该话题举例说明和分析植物能快速适应不利条件的原因可知,本文主要是陈述植物和动物一样能快速适应不利条件。故选B项。

36.C 上文中提出了问题,由此推知下文要对问题进行回答。故选C项。

第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了多名科学家对气候变化发出了警告,明确指出地球正面临气候紧急情况,并解释了原因。
56.published考查非谓语动词。句意: 在上周发表在《生物科学》杂志上的一篇论文中,他们签署了一份声明,明确指出地球正面临气候紧急情况,如果不做出改变,世界将面临无尽的痛苦。分析句子结构可知,signed为主句谓语,故空处缺少非谓语,paper和publish“发表”之间是被动关系, 故使用过去分词published作后置定语。故填published。
57.are made考查时态及语态。句意:在上周发表在《生物科学》杂志上的一篇论文中,他们签署了一份声明,明确指出地球正面临气候紧急情况,如果不做出改变,世界将面临无尽的痛苦。分析句子结构可知,if引导条件状语从句,主句使用一般将来时,故条件状语从句使用一般现在时,且主语changes和make“做出”之间是被动关系,因此使用一般现在时的被动语态。故填are made。
58.that考查同位语从句。句意:科学家收集的证据揭示了一个不可否认的事实,即在过去的40年里,从化石燃料消耗的快速增长到温室气体排放的增加,人类活动一直在导致全球变暖。分析句子结构可知,空处引导同位语从句,解释说明truth,且同位语从句中不缺少成分和含义,故用引导词that。故填that。
59.to考查固定搭配。句意:科学家收集的证据揭示了一个不可否认的事实,即在过去的40年里,从化石燃料消耗的快速增长到温室气体排放的增加,人类活动一直在导致全球变暖。结合句意和空前的from可知,本空填介词to,from... to...为固定搭配, 意为“从······到······”。故填to。
60.further考查形容词。句意:科学家们还对应对全球变暖给出了一些指示,提出了防止进一步灾难的六项行动,进一步,故填further.
61.growth考查名词。句意:科学家们还对应对全球变暖给出了一些指示,提出了防止进一步灾难的六项行动:通过投资计划生育服务和女孩教育来稳定人口,取代化石燃料,减少气候污染物的排放,少吃肉,恢复和保护生态系统,建立一种无碳经济。根据population可知,此处指的是人口增长,故使用不可数名词形式growth“增长”。故填growth。
62.ecosystems 考查名词复数, 故填ecosystems.
63.a考查冠词。句意:科学家们还对应对全球变暖给出了一些指示,提出了防止进一步灾难的六项行动:通过投资计划生育服务和女孩教育来稳定人口,取代化石燃料,减少气候污染物的排放,少吃肉,恢复和保护生态系统,建立一种无碳经济。此处泛指一种无碳经济,且carbon-free是以辅音音素开头,故使用不定冠词a修饰。故填a。
64.closely考查副词。句意:科学家们说气候危机与人类活动密切相关,因此他们呼吁人们改变生活方式。空处修饰形容词related,要用副词closely“密切地”,作状语。故填closely。
65.to change考查不定式。句意:科学家们说气候危机与人类活动密切相关,因此他们呼吁人们改变生活方式。call on sb. to do sth.为固定搭配,意为“呼吁某人做某事”,故本空填 change“改变”的不定式形式to change,作宾补。故填tochange。

One possible version:
Zhang Fuqing, once a soldier of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army, was awarded the title of “Combat Hero” twice during the war. Besides, in 2019 he was given the “Touching China” award.
After retiring from the army in 1955, Zhang devoted his life to the poverty-stricken mountainous areas of Laifeng, a remote county in Hubei Province. Zhang lives a simple and independent life with indifference to fame and fortune. For many years he had never told anyone about his past achievements until they were widely reported by the media at the end of 2018 when millions of Chinese people were touched.
Zhang Fuqing, a hero who devotes his life to our motherland, will live in our hearts forever.
第二节(共1小题;满分25分)
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了由于丈夫出差在外时间较长,作者认为养一条狗能带来安全感,于是在2002年情人节那天收养了一只小狗,名叫 Max,孩子们也和 Max 产生了感情。
【审题分析】
Max and our family
审语篇类型:记叙文
审人称:第一,三人称
审时态:以一般过去时为主
审主题:忠诚的鬃毛狗
审故事情节:
故事引入
On Valentine’s Day in 2002, We adopted a standard poodle(鬈毛狗)Max.
We were a family of four—me, my husband, and our children, Sophie and Jake.
My husband often traveled on business and I felt safer with the dog.
故事发展
Opening the box we saw a small dog with curly black hair and intelligent eyes.
He mastered house-training quickly and considered himself one of us.
By his first birthday, Max had grown into a 50-pound guard dog.
He manned the front door like a soldier.
My husband died and my kids worked in other cities after graduation.
【思路点拨】
续写第一段首句:“突然,我只身一人了。”这里我们很自然会想到:作者的心情怎样?狗是怎么做的呢 由此可知,续写第一段主要应该写狗是如何陪伴作者的,同时要注意和续写第二段首句自然地衔接起来。续写第二段首句说狗的后腿出了问题。所以本段末尾需要将话题引到狗逐渐变老上,为与续写第二段衔接做铺垫。
续写第二段首句:“有一天,我发现Max的后腿出了问题。”这里可以思考,狗的身体状况会发生什么变化?孩子们会回来吗?本段可以描述狗因为年纪大,身体状况不好,一家人陪它走完最后的时间;或者经过家人陪伴和医生的治疗,狗的身体恢复,从此家人之间更加相互珍惜等。续写只要符合生活实际,积极向上即可。
参考范文:
Paragraph 1:
And then, suddenly, I was alone. I had loved all my family wildly, all of them, and they had left. Max became my only companion and brought me a great sense of security. He followed me from room to room, sometimes staying so close that I nearly tripped over him. However, as time went on, Max was getting older. Gradually, he lost his hearing and sight. He grew less happy and less active on our walks.
Paragraph 2:
One day, I found there was something wrong with Max’s back legs. A few days later, he went into heart failure. Jake flew home to be there when we said goodbye. By then, Max had stopped eating and drinking. All he could do was lie on the floor with his eyes closed. So Jake bought a sleeping ma t and lay beside Max all night. I took a picture: a boy and his dog. A boy and his brother.
【范文评析】
and they had left.作者深爱着自己的家人,他们却都离开了自己,此处呼应了原文最后一段的情节。
He followed me from room to room, sometimes staying so close that I nearly tripped over him.反映了狗和作者形影不离,“trip over”这一高级词汇的使用,体现了作者的语言功底。
Jake flew home to be there when we said goodbye.为了狗,Jake 乘飞机回家,足见作者一家人和狗感情深厚。
Jake bought a sleeping mat and lay beside Max all night.在狗病重时,Jake整晚陪伴它,体现了狗在Jake心中的分量,与原文中Jake躺在狗窝的情节相照应。
I took a picture: a boy and his dog. A boy and his brother.展现出了一幅人与动物友爱、和谐相处的画面。

M: Where are you going Sometimes it’s nice to read about the place you’re visiting.
W: England.

W: I love Austen and Bronte, but I didn’t think about mysteries. Are they frightening
M: Not at all. The main story is about solving the crime, rather than the murder. I can suggest a few titles.
W: All right. I hope I will have time to finish the book! I’m traveling with my children, and they often interrupt my reading.
Text 10给科学家们分享好消息
M: Fellow scientists, I finally have some good news to report. As you know, I have been studying sea life for three months in New York Harbor. Today, I can finally present some hard evidence that sharks have returned to these waters. For the past two weeks, I’ve been helping to film the Shark Week program for the Discovery Channel on TV. My job was to sit in a boat near a dead whale and check it for shark bites. It’s been a very hot July, so this wasn’t the easiest task. After five days, I noticed there were several large shark bites along the stomach of the whale. I was thrilled, because this means our conservation efforts are starting to pay off. Sharks’ returning to a former hunting ground indicates that the waters are cleaner and healthier. We have been trying to clean up this area and the river s that poured into the harbor for many years. I want to take this opportunity to thank the Environment Friends Society. You have all made your best effort so that future generations can live in a clean world.
