For our family vacations when our children were younger, we often went river rafting. Rafting meant we could be together as a family, 16 with the beauty of nature, and meet other people. Plus, it was 17 , and being on the river meant our family never had to ask that 18 of questions: “What are we going to do today ” It was always clear— 19 the boat and paddle downstream! This was our method for strengthening family bonds with less 20 .
We also found that the river is always a great 21 . For example, sometimes your boat goes through a particularly difficult rapid and you find yourself thrown out of the boat and into the water. When this happens, sometimes you get caught in a 22 , where the water is churning (搅动) back upstream. What do you do The natural tendency is to crazily attempt to swim 23 , but in this situation, the water is circulating backward, 24 you are actually swimming against the current. This is very dangerous; it is quite possible to 25 yourself and be unable to get out of the hole. Unfortunately, people have 26 this way. However, if you give up swimming and 27 , the water pulls you in and for an instant takes you upstream. Usually, this is enough for you to be 28 “spit out” of the hole.
A 29 situation came up in a recent coaching meeting I had with a high-ranking engineer of a Fortune 100 company, who described his week as feeling as though he were “swimming upstream.” The more 30 he felt, the harder he worked, and the less time he spent with his managers, and with his family. He was unaware that he had become so 31 in fighting the daily battles that he had completely 32 the larger stream, the more vital 33 of his leadership role.

I Was the Doughnut Lady
In university I had a part-time job at a shop that sold doughnuts and coffee. Situated on a block where several buses stopped, it served the people who had a few minutes to wait for their bus.
Every afternoon around four o’clock, a group of school children would burst into the shop, and business would come to a stop. Adults would glance in, see the crowd and pass on. But I didn’t mind if the children waited for their bus inside. Sometimes I would hand out a bus fare when a ticket went missing—always repaid the next day. On snowy days I would give away some doughnuts. I would lock the door at closing time, and we waited in the warm shop until their bus finally arrived.
I enjoyed my young friends, but it never occurred to me that I played an important role in their lives—until one afternoon when a man came and asked if I was the girl working on weekday s around four o’clock. He identified himself as the father of two of my favorites.
“I want you to know I appreciate what you do for my children. I worry about them taking two buses to get home. It means a lot that they can wait here and you keep an eye on them. When they are with the doughnut lady, I know they are safe.” I told him it wasn’t a big deal, and that I enjoyed the kids.
So I was the Doughnut Lady. I not only received a title, but became a landmark. Now I think about all the people who keep an eye on my own children. They become, well, Doughnut Ladies. Like the men at the skating rink, who let my boys ring home; Or the bus driver who drove my daughter to her stop at the end of the route at night but wouldn’t leave until I arrived to pick her up; Or that nice police officer who took pity on my boys walking home in the rain when I was at work—even though the phone rang all the next day with calls from curious neighbors. “Was that a police car I saw at your house last night ”
That wasn’t a police car. That was a Doughnut Lady.
41．According to the passage, the author sometimes ______.
A．sold bus tickets to the children B．gave the children free doughnuts
C．did business with the children’s help D．called the children’s parents to pick them up
42．By saying “…it wasn’t a big deal (Para.4),” the author meant that ______.
A．she hadn’t done anything significant
B．she hadn’t spent much time with the children
C．she hadn’t made a lot of money from the children
D．she hadn’t found it hard to get along with the children
43．What can we learn about the police officer
A．He took the boys to the police station. B．He helped the boys look for their mother.
C．He drove the boys back home in a police car. D．He managed to make sure of the boys’ identity.
44．Why did the neighbors call the next day
A．They called to comfort them.
B．They tried to make sure they were fine.
C．They wanted to confirm it was really a police car.
D．They wondered what the police brought them on such a rainy night.
45．The passage suggests that ______.
A．running a business requires skill B．taking responsibility is a moral virtue
C．devotion should be everything in life D．there are always no small acts of kindness.
C
According to reports, three-quarters of all crops around the world depend on pollinating (授粉的) insects like bees and butterflies. By pollinating, pollinators enable the production of seeds. Without them, crop farming can become extremely difficult or costly threatening food supplies and prices globally.
Research has shown a rapid and consistent decline in pollinator populations. Average butterfly populations have almost halved since 1991 and bee populations in particular face a sharp decline. Given the world’s growing dependence on these insects, we can only expect the problem to worsen if no action is taken.
Much has been written about how intensive farming practices the use of chemical pesticides (杀虫剂), and pollution are threatening the survival of these helpful insects. To add to the already critical situation, global warming is contributing significantly to the rapid disappearance of pollinators.
Climate change is a major threat to pollinators, with rising temperatures and increasing frequency and intensity of extreme weather events affecting the food sources and habitats, on which pollinators depend for their survival.
Climate change also changes the timing and availability of lowering plants, leading to mismatches between pollinators and their food sources. A study has found that climate change has shifted plants’ blooming to earlier times and caused certain plants to move to higher areas, resulting in a decline in pollination.
Another study has found that climate change could lead to a decline in the quality of nectar, which is the main food source for many pollinators. As temperatures rise, the sugar content of nectar decreases, making it less nutritious for pollinators. This leads to a decline in the health and reproductive success of pollinators, as well as a decline in the pollination of plants.
Needless to say, cutting global emissions (排放量) is key. It’s essential that we continue to advocate for emission reductions. From country-level to individual businesses, more concrete roadmaps to net zero are a must.
We must at least minimize, if not prevent, the usage of pesticides, since these chemicals are harmful to pollinators and can have a far-reaching effect on pollination as a whole.
46．What does paragraph 1 try to show
A．The influence of crop crises. B．The importance of pollinators.
C．The serious challenges faced by humans. D．The increasing difficulty of crop production.
47．How does the author sound in paragraph 2
A．Curious. B．Suspicious. C．Humorous. D．Anxious.
48．What do paragraphs 3-4 mainly talk about
A．Why chemical pesticides are harmful to pollinators. B．Causes of the decline in pollinator populations.
C．The importance of pollinators to the ecosystem. D．How climate change has affected pollinators.
49．What have the two studies found
A．Climate change greatly affects pollination.
B．Pollution seriously threatens pollinators survival.
C．Global warming contributes to the loss of pollinators’ habitats.
D．Improper farming practices cause some pollinators to disappear.
50．What is a suggestion for helping pollinators
A．Starting keeping bees. B．Reducing pesticide use.
C．Increasing the amount of nectar. D．Building more habitats for pollinators.
D
Several new species of tropical birds have been found on remote islands in Indonesia. Researchers have discerned the Wakatobi sunbird, a new species that lives on the small Wakatobi Islands, located in central Indonesia. They also studied olive-backed (橄榄背的) sunbirds and black sunbirds and found that some of the birds they examined actually belonged to some previously unrecognized species.
The new Wakatobi sunbird looks similar to the olive-backed sunbird, but has darker feathers, shorter wings, and a higher-toned song. Zoologists believe that because it has such short wings, it never spread beyond the tiny islands. The olive-backed sunbird, however, can fly long distances, so it was able to inhabit other locations.
These discoveries were part of a long-time cooperation between scientists at Trinity College Dublin and Universitas Halu Oleo in Sulawesi, Indonesia.
“Specifically, we became interested in the Wakatobi sunbird because of the work of Ernst Hartert, a German bird expert active at the beginning of the 20th century,” Fionn O Marcaigh, first author on the paper, says. “He described the Wakatobi sunbird as a population with distinctive dark feathers, but he and the rest of the scientific community eventually decided that it was only a subspecies of the widespread olive-backed sunbird. We were eager to use modern methods to put this to the test.”
For their research, scientists used DNA, recordings of songs and body measurement analysis to compare the sunbirds they studied, “We used a system called integrative taxonomy, which combines data on a number of aspects of the birds, including their songs, feathers, and body structures,” O Marcaigh says. “We recorded their songs using digital recorders, measured live birds caught and released by licensed netters, and used computational statistics to analyze the differences.” The scientists also obtained genetic samples which they analyzed in the lab and they found that the patterns they found were also reflected in the birds’ DNA.
“I’m excited that we’ve added to the list of known species from this wonderful part of the world,” O Marcaigh says.
51．What does the underlined word “discerned” in paragraph 1 probably mean
A．Overestimated. B．Imagined. C．Overlooked. D．Identified.
52．How does the Wakatobi sunbird differ from the olive-backed sunbird
A．It has colorful wings. B．It flies shorter distances.
C．It lives throughout Indonesia. D．It sings more beautiful songs.
53．What can we know about Ernst Hartert
A．He is a scientist from Universitas Halu Oleo.
B．He still takes an active part in bird research.
C．He is the first scientist to use DNA to study birds.
D．He inspired the researchers’ interest in the Wakatobi sunbird.
54．Why did O Marcaigh study the Wakatobi sunbird
A．To determine its category. B．To investigate its habitat and behavior.
C．To analyze its genetic makeup. D．To continue the study of Ernst Hartert.
55．Which aspect of the research does paragraph 5 mainly talk about
A．Its methods. B．Its theories. C．Its impact. D．Its background.

阅读下面短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
In 2019, the state of California was on fire. Alexandria Villaseor, who was 13 at the time,-witnessed the destruction of Northern California’s Camp Fire, which would go on to burn more than 150, 000 acres of land. Villaseor was scared. “That’s when I found out how important climate education was,” she reflected. “And just how much we lacked climate education these past couple of years.”
Villaseor, at the age of 15, was determined to have a bigger conversation. She quickly realized the fight requires international, government-level changes. For her, what started as local concern turned into a year-long protest in front of the United Nations’ New York City headquarters and a global campaign for more compulsory climate education. She sat on a bench in front of the headquarters, begging for the world’s leaders to take climate change seriously.
Her action received national attention, with millions of other students around the world joining in the movement. “It’s completely unacceptable not to learn anything about our planet and our environment in school, after all the young people would inherit the Earth.” Villaseor said, “That’s why I think that climate education is so important, and that’s why I focus a lot on it now.”
Right now, Villaseor is working with the American Administration on its climate plan,which has promised to center on the needs of young people and communities most impacted by climate change. She even spoke at the 2021 Democratic National Convention. “This was definitely a huge moment when I realized that people were listening to the voices of me and youth climate activists.” Villaseor said.
When she isn’t connecting with her fellow youth activists, Villaseor is like most other teens. “My favorite thing to do, of course, is sleep,” she said, “I like to read a lot. I like fantasy books, normally. I also like to write.”
56．What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us (no more than 10 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________

第二节：书面表达
Last week, we took the foreign students in our school to experience the authentic tea culture, which turned out to be extremely rewarding.
On arriving at the tea house, the foreign students were impressed by the unique tea pots and tea cups. I gave them a vivid and informative introduction of tea culture, including its profound history, its rich variety, and the exquisite craftsmanship of making tea with their interest greatly sparked, I then began to teach them how to make tea.
In order to deliver a clear presentation, I slowly explained the traditional procedure of making tea in detail. Absorbed in every move of mine, the foreign students were once again amazed by this unique culture and they couldn’t help taking pictures from time to time.
Next came the moment when I asked them to have a try themselves. Washing the tea pots, adding tea leaves, and pouring water into the cups, they followed my instructions and were really immersed in charming tea culture. The tea house witnessed a really enjoyable time for all of us.
At the end of the activity, holding the tea bags in our hands, we took a picture to memorize the unforgettable day. It suddenly hit me that traditional culture like tea culture was of great charm and huge value. And I swelled with pride to spread our own culture to people all over the world.
