Dr. Myron Rolle, who shifted to his childhood dream of becoming a neurosurgeon (神经外科医生) after his N.F.L. (美国国家橄榄球联盟) career was stopped.
He grew up in New Jersey. At 11 he’d read Gifted Hands, Ben Carson’s popular 1990 autobiography. It detailed how Carson went from being an inner-city youth with poor grades to the director of neurosurgery. After reading it, Rolle started running after two dreams. He wanted to be a professional football player and a neurosurgeon like Carson.
For years, the neurosurgeon dream lay dormant. Rolle stood out playing as a defensive back for Florida State University (FSU). The Titans drafted him in 2010. But the football dream didn’t go as planned. Rolle played in no regular-season N.F.L. games. The Titans parted ways with him in 2011.
He returned home to New Jersey, where he sank into a panic. His mother showed him his grade-school notebook. He saw where he had written both goals. “She looked me straight in the eyes and pointed at the first one,” he recalled. “She said, ‘This one’s done. Now we need to do this.’”
“It was the most depressed I’ve been in my life,” he said. When asked how much he struggled with giving up his N.F.L. dream, he referred to the 2 percent philosophy that he picked up from his football coach at FSU — Can you be 2 percent better than you were yesterday You can if you take small steps every single day toward a larger goal.
“If you look at the outside, you will see my story as maybe something that is unable to achieve. I played in the N.F.L. and I was a Rhodes Scholar and now neurosurgeon. But doubts and uncertainty really went throughout my life. Dealing with work-life balance issues or challenges in the workplace — I just found ways to overcome these challenges.”
24. What inspired Myron Rolle to struggle for his dreams when he was young
A. The popularity of Gifted Hands. B. The story of N.F.L. game.
C. Ben Carson’s struggling experience. D. Ben Carson’s failure lesson.
25. What do the underlined words “lay dormant” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Came true. B. Went smooth. C. Fell apart. D. Lay aside.
26. What was the most disappointing moment for Myron Rolle
A. Giving up the football dream. B. Going back to his hometown.
C. Letting his mother down. D. Seeing the former notebook.
27. What can we learn from Rolle’s words in the last paragraph
A. Challenges bring precious opportunities. B. Everything happens for some reason.
C. When one door closes, another opens. D. Enthusiasm keeps dream come true.
C
When people take with them their own expectations about tipping as they travel around the world, it generates no small amount of confusion. Norwegians, who come from a culture where wages are high and tips are low, could burn through Las Vegas leaving a trail of outrage with their tiny offerings. Meanwhile, high-tipping Americans might offend everyone in Tokyo because good service in Japan is a matter of honour, as in: “How dare you suggest I be rewarded for handing you a plate of sashimi without dropping it in your lap ”
We’re all in an embarrassed mess because there’s no consistent logic to any of this. None!
Tipping, as we know it, started in Tudor England when noblemen visited each other’s country homes and gave extra money to the servants as a thank-you for helping them with their clothing. Hundreds of years later, the tradition has become totally random. A recent study found that people are twice as likely to tip a grocery delivery person than a grocery store clerk, and roughly twice as likely to tip a waiter than a fast-food restaurant worker. Why is that A paid job is a paid job, right The grocery deliverer is paid to deliver and the grocery clerk is paid to clerk. So tipping one and not the other only makes sense in terms of what has become customary.
No one expects a tip in much of Southeast Asia or Australia, beyond saying “keep the change.” Compare that to the United States, where restaurant tips of up to 25 percent are now expected for very good service; in Canada, it’s 15 to 20 percent. Sometimes, that too can feel tense. “Even when the server tells you about it up front, it’s awkward,” one friend who encountered this custom said. “Do you tip more if they were really good What if they weren’t good ”
It’s enough to make your head hurt — but will we soon have to worry about tipping with bitcoin I don’t even understand the notion of cryptocurrency (数字加密货币), much less how to use the new tipping apps that are popping up around it. Maybe that’s how people used to feel about money itself, back when they traded goods and services with shells and weapons and rice. Back when there was no tipping.
28. The first paragraph is intended to ______ .
A. emphasize the universal importance of tipping
B. argue that tipping customs are confusing in certain cultures
C. illustrate the global variations in tipping practices
D. describe the economic impact of tipping on different countries
29. By origin, a tip was ______ .
A. a customary part of grocery delivery
B. an expected payment for essential services
C. a gesture of gratitude from the upper class
D. a modern concept in cryptocurrency transactions
30. What can be learned about Americans’ tipping practices from the passage
A. Americans give fatter tips in restaurants than elsewhere.
B. Americans are used to give tips wherever they go.
C. Americans are generally unwilling but forced to give a tip.
D. Americans mainly tip those who provide very good service.
31. The author mention bitcoin when talking about tipping in order to ______ .
A. argue that traditional tipping methods are outdated
B. emphasize that digital payments have simplified the tipping process
C. criticize the idea of using virtual currency for everyday purchase
D. suggest that cryptocurrency may complicate tipping customs
D
You might think as climate change warms the tundra (冻原) — melting surface snow and ice and thawing permafrost (冻土) — there should be more surface water. Existing lakes should be expanding because of this extra water, and new ones should also be making their appearance. Recently, however, scientists have observed not just shrinking lakes but lakes that have completely disappeared. A paper published this year in Nature Climate Change found widespread lake loss across the Arctic over the past 20 years.
Many scientists shared the commonsense expectation that as permafrost thawed (融化), lakes would at first expand because of the increased meltwater flowing into them. Eventually, researchers projected, progressive warming during the 21st and 22 centuries would dry out the Arctic. But now it looks as if Arctic lakes are disappearing a century or more sooner than they were predicted to.
What is causing this to happen Basically, the ground is becoming more permeable (有渗透性的). We talk about “solid ground”, but its particles of rock, mineral and organic matter actually have spaces between them. Outside the Arctic, those spaces are filled with air or water; surface water drains into them. Arctic landscapes are different. In permafrost, the spaces are filled with solid ice, so liquid water cannot readily penetrate through them. But when the permafrost thaws, water can flow downward. So these far northern lakes are disappearing because surface water can drain rapidly into the subsurface as the permafrost warms up.
Why did scientists miss this One reason is that most climate models assume that permafrost thaw is driven only by warming air. New evidence suggests that rainfall is now contributing substantially to permafrost loss. The rainfall carries heat into the ground. Yet none of the models included such processes. This is a good example of why — no matter how sophisticated models are or may one day become—we will still need to continue making direct observations of the natural world.
Lakes make up as much as 40 percent of the Arctic’s lowlands, where they provide crucial freshwater for Indigenous communities and critical habitats for a wide range of plants and animal life. The loss of marshy (湿地的) areas that accompany these lakes can also lead to an increase in wildfires, which, in turn, only serves to melt more permafrost. This permafrost hold a huge amount of methane, which could end up dramatically accelerating global warming.
32. What surprised scientists according to the first two paragraphs
A. The quicker disappearance of Arctic lakes.
B. The appearance of new lakes in the Arctic.
C. The expansion of existing lakes in the Arctic.
D. The widespread lake shrinkage across the Arctic.
33. What is causing the widespread lake loss in the Arctic
A. The downward flow of surface water in lakes.
B. The outward flowing water from melting snow.
C. The drainage of water through holes in the solid ground.
D The rapid disappearance of lake water due to the warming air.
34. Why did scientists fail to make correct prediction about the Arctic lakes
A. They didn’t employ sophisticated enough models.
B. They made their predictions based on insufficient data.
C. They didn’t get a close-up look at the natural world at all.
D. They didn’t consider the effect of rainfall on permafrost thaw.
35. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about
A. The major contributors to global warming.
B. The side effects of the Arctic lake loss.
C. The role of permafrost in controlling global warming.
D. The measures being taken to fight against Arctic lake loss.

Vegan Agriculture
Vegan farming (全素农业) has become more and more popular. It is one of the most environmentally-friendly forms of agriculture. Vegan farming is a good way to grow plants such as vegetables without using animal-derived materials such as their waste.___36___ Such an approach to farming also helps preserve the environment and regain soil richness and improve its biodiversity.
___37___Organic farming uses natural products to grow plants — that can include even animal waste as fertilizers. On the other hand, vegan agriculture rejects animal-derived products and usually sticks with plant-based organic compounds, which means that, in general, vegan agriculture has stricter rules than organic farming.
Additionally, vegan farming usually chooses more natural ways to protect the plants, like breaking cycles of plants’ diseases with mixed cropping (混作), using mechanical barriers (机械屏障) such as nets, or even attracting opposing organisms to fight the harmful ones. ___38___ However, they might be less effective against certain plant diseases or pests.
One of the reasons to develop vegan agriculture is that the vegan way of farming replaces synthetic (合成的) pesticides and uses organic pesticides or other non-chemical methods to protect the crops. By contrast, in conventional agriculture, synthetic pesticides are on a very high level. ___39___
In the future, it is of great significance not to rely on animals’ waste to feed plants. Doing so is not only beneficial to vegans.___40___ Even if today’s methods of vegan agriculture might not be perfect, scientists worldwide, together with vegan farmers, are working towards developing plant-based solutions as alternatives to animal-derived fertilizers.
A. Accordingly, the amount of them in food products is much higher.
B. Also, vegan farmers are far from applying synthetic fertilizers.
C. It is apparent that vegan agriculture is not the same as organic farming.
D. In today’s world, the vegan diet and lifestyle are increasingly popular.
E. But it’s also good for the whole world, including other animals and plants.
F. These ways affect the environment less than the ways of traditional farming.
G. The rise of veganism creates new demand for more vegan-friendly agriculture.

My eyes met hers and we both grinned before leaping into the water. Now, I was an excellent swimmer. Yet, a few months ago, things were different. And I had to thank her for helping me.
I was always afraid of water. This fear could not be explained, but I knew that the moment I stepped near any body of water, my legs would turn to jelly. I would imagine myself drowning in the water. That was why I had never gone into a swimming pool until swimming became a school requirement. My school wanted all pupils to pass a swimming test, and if they could not, then they would have to attend weekly swimming lessons in school, which sent fright down my spine (脊柱). Thus, my parents signed me up for swimming lessons at the pool near my house. I had to attend those weekly lessons, and each one was great torture (折磨) for me. I was naturally awkward, and my fear of water did not help at all. Every lesson, I would be spending my time thrashing (拍打) about in the water while my classmates would be swimming countless laps effortlessly. How was I going to pass the test at this rate I was discouraged. In my swimming class, there was an exceptionally athletic girl. Her name was Kathy. She was the best swimmer in our class and always looked at me with disdain (鄙视). Once, after a particularly long and hard swimming lesson, I spotted Kathy swimming gracefully in the pool. Mustering my courage, I asked meekly (温顺地),“Kathy, can you teach me swimming ” She stared at me coldly, and I thought she was going to refuse my request. To my surprise, she nodded after a few moments of silence.
1.续写词数为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
From then on, Kathy stayed back for about an hour after every swimming lesson for me.

Four months flew past and it was time for me to take my test.

W:I went to an art show yesterday. I noticed it as I was heading into the city center. It was being held at the library.
M: How was it
W: Well, I didn’t think the library was great. The museum would’ve been better. Still, there were some great works of art—I bought those postcards with some printed on them. Look!
M: That statue is amazing! It’s huge!
W: Yeah, and there was a painting that wasn’t bad, either. And a silver bowl also caught my attention!
M: Sounds as if I should go and see the show!
(Text 7)
M: We’ve still got a few things to do before the conference.
W: I know, Paulo.
M: I’m going to arrange the drinks and snacks for the attendees.
W: Jonah’s going to call the printers. We need to check all the designs before they print the posters.
M: Are you going to contact the conference hall, Amy We need to check that all the rooms have data projectors.

(Text 8)
M: When you traveled abroad, did you see any interesting houses
W: Well, when I was in Vietnam, I saw some tall houses made out of bamboo.
M: They are very interesting! And so are the cave houses at a place called Matmata.
W: Is that in Egypt
M: No, it’s in Tunisia. You might recognize it from the Star Wars films. They filmed some of the scenes there because the cave houses look strange, like maybe they aren’t real. People started living in them 700years ago. They made them out of the rock.
W: Wow! That’s ancient!
M:I once went to Cappadocia where there are cave houses too. The caves formed from rock more than 8,000years ago. People changed them into homes during the Roman period. Some people still live there now.
W: Now That’s amazing.
(Text 9)
W: Max, your nature documentaries are very popular around the world. What’s made them so successful
M: Well, viewers’ preferences have changed. These days, they care less about films that are technically perfect but don’t say much. They want the creatures in films to be almost like the heroes in a novel and to learn about the everyday dramas of their lives. And that’s exactly what I’ve tried to do with my documentaries.
W: I see. And, how long does it take you to plan a film trip
M: About a year. I can hardly just form a production team, turn up and start filming. The key is to study the creatures I’m going to film.
W: What’s the most difficult aspect of filming underwater
M: It’s dangerous to stay underwater for more than an hour. And getting close to the wildlife you’ re filming is hard within such a short time. Fifty years ago, I’d have said it was dealing with damage to equipment caused by sea water, but that’s less of an issue these days.
W: Which of your films do you take most pride in
M: Filming whales off Mexico was the most enjoyable experience I’ve had, and it’s fun filming dolphins although the animals I keep filming are sharks.
(Text 10)
M: What are some of the best part-time jobs for 18-year-old teenagers with no experience Working in a store is probably one of the best. In a store, teenagers can learn marketing skills, ways of communicating with customers, collecting and counting cash, etc. A bookstore would probably do just as well in terms of getting this experience. Taking care of pets can also be a good job. By providing pet-care services, you can earn a good income in your spare time. To start with, you might have to charge your customers less than the average price. But as you grow your business and make a good name, you can start to charge more. Pet care can be done either at the customer’s home or at your place of business; it is down to each individual customer’s preference. Office assistant jobs can be quite good for 18-year-olds too. Many business offices need people to assist the managers, directors and general staff with secretarial and other duties. Teenagers can also get jobs as receptionists in business offices. Such jobs make good part-time work for college students studying subjects like marketing and finance.

(使用最基本和最经济的服务套餐,Consumer Cellular计划的起价仅为每月20美元。与美国电话电报公司(AT&T)等其他通信服务提供商相比,这是一笔不错的交易,后者55+套餐的单线起价为每月60美元。)”可知,Consumer Cellular是通信服务供应商,故选D。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“You can set up a monthly payment plan for as little as $12, but that won’t include any service package. (你可以设置每月最低12美元的付款计划,但不包括任何服务包。)”可计算出,Consumer Cellular的手机套餐一年最低花费:12*12=144美元,故选C。
【答案】24. C 25. D 26. A 27. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章叙述了Myron Rolle的人生经历,特别是他如何追逐并最终实现儿时成为神经外科医生的梦想。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“At 11 he’d read Gifted Hands, Ben Carson’s popular 1990 autobiography. It detailed how Carson went from being an inner-city youth with poor grades to the director of neurosurgery. After reading it, Rolle started running after two dreams.(11岁时,他读了Ben Carson1990年出版的畅销自传《天才之手》。书中详细描述了Carson是如何从一个成绩不佳的市中心青年成长为神经外科主任的。读完这本书后,Rolle开始追逐两个梦想)”可知,是Ben Carson的挣扎经历激励Myron Rolle在年轻时为自己的梦想而奋斗。故选C项。
【25题详解】
词句猜测题。根据后文“Rolle stood out playing as a defensive back for Florida State University (FSU). The Titans drafted him in 2010. But the football dream didn’t go as planned. Rolle played in no regular-season N.F.L. games. The Titans parted ways with him in 2011.(Rolle在佛罗里达州立大学(FSU)担任防守后卫,表现出色。2010年,泰坦队选中了他。但橄榄球的梦想并没有按计划实现。罗尔没有参加过任何一场N.F.L.的常规赛。2011年,泰坦队与他分道扬镳)”可知,多年来,Rolle一直在追寻成为职业足球运动员的梦想,所以神经外科医生的梦想一直被搁置。由此推知,划线词组lay dormant是“搁置”之意,和D项意思相近。故选D项。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段““It was the most depressed I’ve been in my life,” he said. When asked how much he struggled with giving up his N.F.L. dream, he referred to the 2 percent philosophy that he picked up from his football coach at FSU — Can you be 2 percent better than you were yesterday You can if you take small steps every single day toward a larger goal.(“那是我一生中最沮丧的时刻,”他说。当被问及放弃N.F.L.梦想有多艰难时,他提到了从FSU的橄榄球教练那里学到的2%哲学——你能比昨天进步2%吗?如果你能每天朝着更大的目标迈出一小步,那么你就可以)”可知,对Myron Rolle来说,最失望的时刻是放弃足球梦的时候。故选A项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““If you look at the outside, you will see my story as maybe something that is unable to achieve. I played in the N. F. L. and I was a Rhodes Scholar and now neurosurgeon. But doubts and uncertainty really went throughout my life. Dealing with work-life balance issues or challenges in the workplace-I just found ways to overcome these challenges.”(“如果你从外表看,你可能会觉得我的故事是无法实现的。我打过N.F.L.,我是Rhodes学者,现在是神经外科医生。但怀疑和不确定性一直伴随着我的人生。在处理工作与生活的平衡问题或职场挑战时,我只是找到了克服这些挑战的方法。”)”可推知,从Rolle的话中可知,当一件事失败时,只要你能找到克服这些挑战的方法,就能在另一方面获得成功,所以应是一扇门关上,另一扇门就会打开。故选C项。
C【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了全球范围内小费文化的差异、起源、现状以及未来可能的发展趋势(如使用数字货币支付小费)。
答案:CCAD
28.推理判断题。根据文章第一段内容“When people take with them their own expectations about tipping as they travel around the world, it generates no small amount of confusion. Norwegians, who come from a culture where wages are high and tips are low, could burn through Las Vegas leaving a trail of outrage with their tiny offerings. Meanwhile, high-tipping Americans might offend everyone in Tokyo because good service in Japan is a matter of honour, as in: “How dare you suggest I be rewarded for handing you a plate of sashimi without dropping it in your lap ”(当人们带着自己对小费的期望环游世界时,这会产生不小的困惑。挪威人来自一个工资高、小费低的文化背景,他们在拉斯维加斯可能会因为给的小费太少而招致一片愤慨。与此同时,出手阔绰的美国人在东京可能会得罪所有人,因为在日本,良好的服务是一种荣誉的象征,就好像在说:“你怎么敢暗示我为你递上一盘没掉到你腿上的生鱼片而索要报酬?”)”可知,本段通过挪威人和美国人在不同地方给予小费的习惯,来展示全球小费习惯的多样性。故选C。
29.细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Tipping, as we know it, started in Tudor England when noblemen visited each other’s country homes and gave extra money to the servants as a thank-you for helping them with their clothing.(我们所知道的小费制度起源于都铎王朝时期的英格兰,当时贵族们互相拜访乡间宅邸,会给仆人一些额外的钱,以感谢他们帮忙整理衣物。)”可知,小费最初是上层阶级对仆人的一种感激之举。故选C。
30.推理判断题。根据文章第第一段“Meanwhile, high-tipping Americans might offend everyone in Tokyo because good service in Japan is a matter of honour, as in: “How dare you suggest I be rewarded for handing you a plate of sashimi without dropping it in your lap ”(与此同时,给高额小费的美国人可能会冒犯东京的所有人,因为在日本,良好的服务是一种荣誉,比如:“我递给你一盘生鱼片,而没有把它掉到你的腿上,你怎么敢建议我得到奖励?”)”和第四段“No one expects a tip in much of Southeast Asia or Australia, beyond saying “keep the change.” Compare that to the United States, where restaurant tips of up to 25 percent are now expected for very good service; in Canada, it’s 15 to 20 percent. (在东南亚或澳大利亚的大部分地区,除了说“不用找零钱了”之外,没有人指望得到小费。相比之下,在美国,现在餐厅的小费高达25%,因为服务非常好;在加拿大,这一比例为15%至20%)”可推断,美国人在餐馆给的小费比其他地方多。故选A。
31.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“It’s enough to make your head hurt — but will we soon have to worry about tipping with bitcoin I don’t even understand the notion of cryptocurrency (数字加密货币), much less how to use the new tipping apps that are popping up around it.(这足以让人头疼——但我们很快就要担心用比特币付小费了吗?我甚至都不理解数字货币的概念,更不用说如何使用那些围绕它而出现的新款付小费应用程序了。)”可知,作者提到比特币是为了暗示数字货币可能会使小费习俗变得复杂。故选D。
【答案】32. A 33. A 34. D 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了全球气候变暖北极冻土融化反而导致当地湖泊含水量不增反减,甚至逐渐消失的原因。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Recently, however, scientists have observed not just shrinking lakes but lakes that have completely disappeared. (然而,最近科学家们发现,湖泊不仅在萎缩,而且已经完全消失。)”和第二段“But now it looks as if Arctic lakes are disappearing a century or more sooner than they were predicted to. (但现在看来,北极湖泊的消失似乎比预计的要早一个世纪或更早。)”可知,两段主要讲述在全球气候变暖冻土融化的条件下,北极湖泊没有出现理论上的扩大,反而不断消失,故选A。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“So these far northern lakes are disappearing because surface water can drain rapidly into the subsurface as the permafrost warms up. (所以这些遥远的北部湖泊正在消失,因为随着永久冻土变暖,地表水会迅速流入地下。)”可知,湖泊消失的原因在于随着冻土的融化,地表的水不断渗透到地下,所以导致了湖泊水位的下降,甚至是消失,故选A。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“New evidence suggests that rainfall is now contributing substantially to permafrost loss. The rainfall carries heat into the ground. Yet none of the models included such processes. (新的证据表明,现在降雨在很大程度上导致了永久冻土的流失。)”可知,雨水落下会将高温带进地下,导致冻土的融化,而冻土融化后会导致地表水向下渗透,从而影响科学家对地表水量的预测。故选D。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“The loss of marshy (湿地的) areas that accompany these lakes can also lead to an increase in wildfires, which, in turn, only serves to melt more permafrost. This permafrost hold a huge amount of methane, which could end up dramatically accelerating global warming. (与这些湖泊相伴随的沼泽地区的减少也会导致野火的增加,而野火反过来只会融化更多的永久冻土。这些永久冻土中含有大量的甲烷,最终可能会极大地加速全球变暖。)”可知,最后一段主要介绍了北极湖泊减少的副作用。故选B。
【答案】36. B 37. C 38. F 39. A 40. E
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章介绍了全素农业的优势。
【36题详解】
由设空处前一句“Vegan farming is a good way to grow plants such as vegetables without using animal-derived materials such as their waste.(全素农业是种植蔬菜等植物的一种方法。)”和后一句“Such an approach to farming also helps preserve the environment and regain soil richness and improve its biodiversity.(这种耕作方式不仅有助于保护环境、恢复土壤肥力,还有助于增加生物多样性。)”可知,设空处仍在说全素农业的好处。B项“全素种植者也绝不会使用合成肥料”符合题意。故选B。
【37题详解】
本段最后一句“On the other hand, vegan agriculture rejects animal-derived products and usually sticks with plant-based organic compounds, which means that, in general, vegan agriculture has stricter rules than organic farming.(另一方面,纯素农业拒绝动物来源的产品,通常坚持使用植物性有机化合物,这意味着,总的来说,纯素农业比有机农业有更严格的规定。)”可知,本段在说全素农业与有机农业是不一样的。结合选项,C项“很明显,全素农业和有机农业是不一样的”符合题意。故选C。
【38题详解】
前文“Additionally, vegan farming usually chooses more natural ways to protect the plants, like breaking cycles of plants’ diseases with mixed cropping (混作), using mechanical barriers (机械屏障) such as nets, or even attracting opposing organisms to fight the harmful ones.(此外,纯素农业通常选择更自然的方式来保护植物,比如通过混合种植打破植物疾病的循环,使用网状等机械屏障,甚至吸引对立的生物来对抗有害的生物)”介绍全素农业通常选择更自然的方式来保护植物。后文“However, they might be less effective against certain plant diseases or pests.(然而,它们对某些植物疾病或害虫可能不太有效)”出现转折,介绍这种方法的弊端,故推知空处应是这种方法的优势,F项“这些方式对环境的影响比传统农业方式要小”符合语境。故选F。
【39题详解】
前文“By contrast, in conventional agriculture, synthetic pesticides are on a very high level.(相比之下,在传统农业中,合成农药的用量非常高)”提到传统农业中合成农药的用量非常高,A项“因此,它们在食品中的含量要高得多”与前一句构成顺承关系,A项中“them”指代上文“synthetic pesticides”。故选A。
【40题详解】
前文“Doing so is not only beneficial to vegans.(这样做不仅对纯素食者有益)”介绍好处,结合选项,E项“但对整个世界也有好处,包括其他动物和植物”介绍对于动物和植物也是有益的。且“not only...but also”前后呼应。故选E。
【答案】41. B 42. A 43. C 44. D 45. C 46. B 47. D 48. A 49. D 50. B 51. C 52. A 53. D 54. B 55. C

【答案】Dear John,
Knowing that you are interested in the longevity noodles I made for my grandmother, I’m happy to share my experience.
In China, longevity noodles symbolize long life and good health, which is why we serve them on birthdays. To make them, mix flour and water to make a dough. Roll it thin and cut into long strips. Boil until cooked. Then serve the noodles in a flavorful soup with vegetables and eggs. This particular experience enlightened me about the value of family. When I saw my grandmother’s smile, I felt a warm sense of contentment. Hope you can try it someday!
Yours

Paragraph1:
From then on, Kathy stayed back for about an hour after every swimming lesson for me. Her teaching is simple yet extremely effective. Without too many cliché instructions, she assisted me to jump into water directly and then demonstrated the proper swimming stroke beautifully. But once I was in the water, the feeling of fear drowned me again. In great disappointment even frustration, I leaned against the pool wall and dared not to swim any further. Kathy swam around me, patted on my back and encouraged me to try again. As time went by, I made great progress.
Paragraph 2:
Four months flew past and it was time for me to take my test. Leaping into the water, I was seized by the familiar fear again. On the verge of giving up, Kathy’s trust breathed courage and confidence in me. I managed to collect all my strength and swam to the finishing line. Eventually I passed the swimming test! Never had I been so overjoyed. Turning around, Kathy reached for me and hugged me tightly. The light of the sun shone on us, witnessing the start of a new friendship.
