参考范文：
Last Friday, a campaign on the theme of “Exchange Roles with Parents” was launched in our school, with the purpose of building a harmonious relationship among family members.
To respond to it, I decided to have first-hand experience of my parents’ daily routine. Firstly, I prepared meals, washed clothes, and mopped the floor at home, which interested me at first but gradually bored and bothered me. Furthermore, I went to my parents’ workplace and witnessed their hard work.
From this activity, I gained a better understanding of how my parents are devoting themselves to supporting the whole family. So wherever we go and whatever we do, we should express our respect and love for them with gratitude.

参考范文：
Paragraph 1:
With that thought, the manager began searching for the wallet. He retraced every aisle Julia could have walked down. Despite his diligent search, the wallet was nowhere to be seen. Knowing how much the $200 meant to Julia, he handed Julia a box with $200 in it, saying, “My gift. Please take this and fulfill your New Year’s wish!” Julia went home with her eyes filled with tears. Julia was greeted with good news the minute she arrived home. Grace, who had come, discovered the misplaced wallet trapped in the folds of the couch.
Paragraph 2:
After Grace found the wallet, Julia went to return the money and buy New Year gifts. She proceeded to the store, telling the manager what had happened, but he simply wouldn’t take it. “Make it a bigger New Year for more,” he said with a smile. Julia, moved by his generosity, decided to use both the money she had earned and the money from the manager to buy presents not just for her fifth-floor neighbors, but for many others in need. The gifts spread far and wide, bringing unexpected happiness and creating a ripple of goodwill.

W: I have been researching how people used to keep food safe to eat before the refrigerator was invented. Without it, people could only keep something fresh for a limited amount of time.
M: Didn’t people use to smoke and salt their foods to keep them longer
W: Yes! Those are some methods I read about. I think drying is actually the oldest method. The method I was most interested in is called “canning”, though. I think it’s quite an easy and cheap way.
M: You mean keeping foods in metal cans like those we have now
W: Yes, but that wasn’t invented until about 1810. In fact, the first commercial canning didn’t hit the market until about 100 years later.
M: That’s a long amount of time in between. Why do you think it took people that long to accept the process
W: I read that it was because the method wasn’t perfect enough at first. It still had many problems that needed to be worked out. Particularly, if the can wasn’t closed correctly, it could cause serious illnesses.

W: Hello, everybody. We know that animal documentaries (纪录片) are always fun to watch. Lions hunt smaller animals. Monkeys play with each other.

The animal spies are robots. They have cameras in their eyes. But they look and move like real animals. These spies worked in the wild. They tried to be part of real animal groups. The BBC used them to make a documentary called Spy in the Wild. To finish the documentary, the camera team made 34 robot animals. They made monkeys, birds and even worms. It could take about 40 days to 180 days to make one animal spy. And it took the team three years to shoot the documentary. The team traveled 530 kilometers. They went to the Arctic, the Antarctic and many places in between. They filmed more than 8,000 hours of material. Every hour-long episode (剧集) was made from 1,250 hours of material. To make good spies, the camera team needed to learn the living habits of real animals. Many funny things happened between the spies and the animals. Find out more by watching the documentary yourself.

本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了学习一门语言的技巧。

39. C 根据空前的内容可知，接触一门语言对你的学习总是有帮助的。空后指出，看电影来学习语言可能有一定的帮助。所以空处应是承上启下的作用。分析选项可知，C项“然而，真正的问题是你应该看什么或听什么。”不仅与前文形成转折，指出真正的问题是你应该看什么或听什么，还能引起下文，符合此处的语境。故选C。
40. B 空前一句点明主题：让学习变得更有趣的最好方法之一就是把它和你的其他爱好结合起来。根据下一句所举的例子和所做的解释可知，学习一门新语言不像大多数其他爱好，因为每时每刻语言都在我们身边。所以B项“（学习）一门新语言不像大多数其他爱好。”符合此处的语境。故选B。

Copenhagen is an ideal destination for food-loving travellers, but there are many gastronomic (美食的) adventures that await visitors outside this capital city of Denmark. Here are some experiences in the capital and beyond.
Enjoy a Baltic beach relaxation in Bornholm
Beloved by Danes for its sandy beaches and fishing harbours, the island of Bornholm is distinguished by more sunshine time than anywhere else in the country. It’s an attractive dining destination, with traditional smokehouses offering local delicacies (美食). But it’s Kadeau, a restaurant, that really puts Bornholm on the food map.
Have some street food in Copenhagen
Enjoy flavours from all corners of the globe at Reffen. Found in the former industrial site of Refshale en, this street food market is an exciting hangout with a rainbow of cuisines from Thai to Kurdish. Just across a river, Torvehallerne is the place for a bite. Further south, BaneGaarden is hidden in leafy railway sidings at Vesterbro, and offers soul food from the Deep South of the US.
Take a getaway at a castle in Zealand
On the island, one of Denmark’s oldest castles overlooks the scenic northwest coast. The beautiful 13th-century Dragsholm Slot is now a luxury hotel with one of the most well-known restaurants in Zealand — Dragsholm Slot Gourmet. It holds a Michelin star, led by chef Jeppe Foldager who serves seasonal cuisine with materials farmed and hunted from the surrounding fields, forests and sea. For a less pricey meal, the castle has the farm-to-table Bistro and casual Madhus, where visitors can enjoy drinks, snacks and light meals.
21. What makes Bornholm unique in Denmark

C. The attractive smokehouses. D. The beautiful seaside scenery.

One Saturday in December, Annacarin Elf, the head of operations at Gothenburg City Library, just happened to walk by her workplace. Noticing that the door was open, she entered the library, and was astonished to see the heartwarming scene that people were using it like on a regular day.
It was scheduled to be closed for the New Year holiday. The people in the library behaved as usual. Many were reading newspapers, some families were in the children’s section and others were searching for books on the computer.
It seemed that Elf’s colleagues had simply forgotten to lock the door, and because this popular library is usually open on Saturdays, visitors just assumed they could walk in. After checking with her staff team, Elf announced to the people present that the library was about to close. Then she expressed her regret for what had been done wrong and caused them a problem. It later turns out that 446 locals visited the city library, borrowing a total of 246 books during the day. What’s remarkable is that people checked out their books through the library’s electronic self-service system, and that to date, all the books have been returned!
Many Swedes have reacted positively to this uplifting demonstration of local respect for the library, a center that can be seen as a sign of the community, and what the locals did has strengthened their sense of belonging in their community.
Elf says, “Nothing was destroyed. It’s amazing that Gothenburgers entered an empty library and treated it so lovingly.” The city leader has even suggested that this unusual Saturday serve as an accidental experiment to analyse the possibility of operating a totally automated library without staff.
24. Why did Elf feel surprised after entering the library
A. The library staff were in it.
B. People kept reading on holidays.
C. People came in without permission.
D. It was in use though supposed to be closed.
25. What did Elf do that Saturday
A. She left the library open. B. She asked the staff back.
C. She apologized to the visitors. D. She read books in the library.
26. What do many Swedes think of the behavior of Gothenburg locals
A. It displays community spirit. B. It gives the library much uplift.
C. It is a positive reaction to society. D. It strengthens trust between people.
27. What does the author want to convey through the story
A. People tend to show care for others.
B. Life is always full of the unexpected.
C. Libraries must be automated in the future.
D. A library can bring out the best in people.
C
In spite of the title, How to Grow Old, this article will really be on how not to grow old, which, at my time of life, is a much more important subject. My first advice would be to choose your ancestors carefully. Although both my parents died young, I have done well in this respect as regards my other ancestors. My maternal (母亲方面的) grandfather, it is true, died in the flower of his youth at the age of sixty-seven, but my other three grandparents all lived to be over eighty. Of remote ancestors I can only discover one who did not live to a great age, and he died of a disease which is now rare, namely, having his head cut off.
My maternal grandmother, after having nine children who survived, as soon as she became a widow, devoted herself to women’s higher education. She was the co-founders of Girton College. She used to relate how she met in Italy an elderly gentleman who was looking very sad. She inquired the cause of his sorrow and he said that he had just parted from his two grandchildren. “Good gracious,” she exclaimed, “I have seventy-two grandchildren, and if I were sad each time I parted from one of them, I should have a miserable existence!” “Madre snaturale (奇怪的母亲),” he replied.
But as one of the seventy-two, I prefer her recipe. After the age of eighty she found she had some difficulty in getting to sleep, so she habitually spent the hours from midnight to 3 a.m. in reading popular science. I do not believe that she ever had time to notice that she was growing old. This, I think, is the proper recipe for remaining young. If you have wide and keen interests and activities in which you can still be effective, you will have no reason to think about the merely statistical (统计学的) fact of the number of years you have already lived, still less of the probable shortness of your future.

Birds in North America will no longer be named after people, the American Ornithological Society (美国鸟类学会) announced Wednesday. Next year, the organization will begin to rename around 80 species found in the U.S. and Canada.
“There is power in a name, and some English bird names have associations with the past that continue to be exclusionary (排他的) and harmful today,” the organization’s president, Colleen Handel, said in a statement. “Everyone who loves and cares about birds should be able to enjoy and study them freely.”
Rather than review each bird named after a person individually, all such birds will be renamed, the organization announced. Birds that will be renamed include those currently called Wilson’s warbler and Wilson’s snipe, both named after the 19th-century naturalist Alexander Wilson. Audubon’s shearwater, a seabird named for John James Audubon, also will get a new name. In 2020, the organization renamed a bird once referring to a Confederate Army general, John P. McCown, as the thick-billed longspur.
“I’m really happy and excited about the announcement,” said Emily Williams, an ornithologist at Georgetown University who was not involved in the decision. She said heated discussions over bird names have been happening within birdwatching communities for the past several years. “Naming birds based on habitat or appearance is one of the least problematic approaches,” she said.
Earlier this year, the National Audubon Society (NAS) announced that it would keep its name, even as critics and some voices within the organization have argued that it should dump (抛弃) the association with a man, John James Audubon, whose family treated their employees cruelly.
“The name has come to represent so much more than the work of one person,” Susan Bell, chair of the National Audubon Society’s Board of Directors, told Audubon magazine in March, adding, “We shouldn’t ignore what John James Audubon did to his employees in the past.”
32. Why are some examples given in paragraph 3
A. To state naming birds after people is common practice.
B. To show birds are closely related to people’s daily life.
C. To introduce some famous naturalists to the readers.
D. To stress the influence celebrities have on society.
33. How should birds be named according to Emily Williams
A. After their places of birth.
B. Based on their communities.
C. According to their habits.
D. In terms of their living places.
34. What is Susan Bell’s attitude towards the decision of NAS
A. Supportive. B. Carefree.
C. Disapproving. D. Sympathetic.
35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. Rare Species Found in North America
B. Bird Names Linking to Human History
C. Discussions Caused by Bird Names
D. Bird Species to Be Renamed Next Year

If your resolution is to learn a new language, you may be wondering: What’s the best way to go about this 36 There are many different ways to approach it. If you want to start learning a language fast, though, there is plenty of advice we can offer.
Is grammar important
Yes, grammar is important. But after all, when you’re learning your first language as a baby, your parents don’t have to teach you the clear rules of the language. 37
Should I focus on speaking or writing
38 If you want to travel and communicate with native speakers, then writing might be slightly less helpful. But if you’re learning Latin because you want to read texts in the original language, then you can probably skip the speaking part entirely.
Should I watch shows and listen to music in the language I’m learning
Absolutely yes. Being exposed to a language will always help you with your learning.
39 Watching movies to learn a language may have helped somewhat. But it’s important not to trap yourself with a complex language.
How Can I make language learning more fun
One of the best ways to make learning more fun is to work it in to your other hobbies. 40
You can’t learn to play the guitar and go jogging at the same time, for example. However, language is always around you and you can practice it while doing something else. While jogging, you could listen to a podcast in another language. While playing the guitar, you could pick songs that are in your target language. Anyway, connecting your interests really matters.
A. You just pick it up by nature.
B. A new language isn’t like most other hobbies.
C. Yet the real question is what you should watch or listen to.
D. Unfortunately, there’s no “best way” to learn a new language.
E. So it’s more important to get comfortable with speaking the language.
F. The answer to this question really depends on what you hope to achieve.
G. An important thing to remember is switching up how you’re exposed to the language.

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。
For months, Grace’s old mother Julia had been sitting in her home, making towels day and night to sell at the annual local fair. With the $200 she had earned, she wanted to buy some gifts for the poor families on the fifth floor for the coming New Year.
Then, on a happy snowy evening, Julia went to the grocery store to buy some food. Later, she safely drove back home. At 9:30 that night, she called Grace and cried, “I lost my wallet and all $200 I had earned. My New Year’s Day is ruined.” “Don’t worry, Mom,” Grace said, completely unaware that Julia had gone out in the snow.
“I will drive to your place in the morning and we will find it,” Grace told her mother. “No. It’s gone. It was in my pocket when I went to the store. But when I checked it just now, it wasn’t there,” Julia said. “I searched my car and home. Then, I drove back to the store to see if I left it there. But it wasn’t there either. Then, I walked through the parking lot, looking for it, but it wasn’t anywhere.”
Thinking of her old mother’s going out on the snowy, windy night, Grace was heartbroken. “It’ll be okay, Mom,” she comforted her mother. “We’ll cancel the credit card, and we can replace all the rest of the things in your wallet.” However, getting her mother a new license as well as bank, medical, and identity cards was discouraging even for Grace.
It took Grace several hours to drive to Julia’s house the following morning. But before she got there, Julia had already gone back to the store again. With tears in her eyes, she shared her story about the money she had earned with the store manager and asked if he could check his store for her wallet. The manager felt a great pity for her and thought to himself that if the wallet couldn’t be found, he’d give her some of his own money.
