Everyone fancies a bargain; if it is free, everyone loves it even more! Those who do not believe in a free lunch can now eat their words because it is possible to get things for free in Singapore without any conditions attached. Let me introduce you to some tips on where and how to gain some free presents, all without even touching your wallet.
Food
Go search for food festivals and fairs. These food sellers usually put out a lot of small samples for all to try. Famous ones include the Singapore Food Festival held annually in the month of July at various locations including the Takashimaya Square and Plaza Singapura.
Haircuts
There are well-known hair salons every month that require hair models for apprentices(学徒) to exercise their skills or for their hair stylists(发型师) to experiment with new styles. Unbelievable as it might sound, most people come out of this experience satisfied and addicted to more of such deals. Free Internet
Most hotels offer free wifi. There are also many cafes in Singapore that offer free wireless surfing. However, order a coffee to avoid unfriendly stares from the staff. Popular spots include the McDonald’s, Starbucks and
Cafe Galilee outlets throughout our island. Free City Tour If you are a traveler in Singapore, the Singapore Tourism Board has arranged for you to enjoy a free two-hour city tour that offers you a choice to enjoy a Sentosa Island tour or a small-boat experience.

I stood outside my front door catching my breath. After a lazy Christmas holiday, I had to recover from climbing stairs with carry-on bags and a suitcase. I looked up and blinked. Red tape crossed the door. I didn’t understand Hungarian, but the one English word said enough: “POLICE”.
Google Translate told me I would be arrested if I entered, so I didn’t. Finally, I called my rental agent. He went to the police station for more details.
My agent returned with authorization to enter. Not only were my files undisturbed, but so were the TV and printer. The burglars had taken a few items from the top drawer as well as a small amount of foreign currency in the bottom drawer. Somehow they hadn’t found the jewelry box in the third drawer.
I was in shock. My agent’s words were fuzzy, something about fixing the locks tomorrow and making a list for the police.
Then one day, I remembered that I’d left another jewelry box in the flat. My heart sank as I thought of another locket that had been in that box, a gold engraved one with a picture of my late honey Grandma inside. When I realized the box was missing, the whole experience seemed to crash down on me. I cried.
At the end of January, I received a registered letter from the police. The burglar hadn’t been found, and the case was closed. I slept with my purse by my bed. I hid my laptop when I showered. And then another challenge rose. I was unexpectedly laid off.
Then one July night, I reached into my third drawer, pulled out my jean shorts, and heard a small thud. I looked down and blinked: It was the tiny jewelry box I thought had been stolen six months earlier.
Inside was the locket with honey Grandma smiling at me, being there for me, telling me not to give up. I started to cry.
24. What did the red tape across the writer’s door mean
A. There was a burglary here.
B. The house couldn’t be entered freely.
C. The rent had to be paid quickly.
D. The rental agent advertised for the house.
25. What did the agent promise to do
A. To fix the locks the next day.
B. To report the burglary to the police.
C. To have an iron security gate fixed.
D. To pay for missing things for the writer.
26. What is the best title for the passage
A. Red Tape B. A Jewelry Box C. “Lost” Smile D. Grandma’s Advice
C
Literature students once read three books a week but today they struggle to make it through one in three weeks, Sir Jonathan Bate, a professor of English literature at the University of Oxford, has warned.
Many young people entering university to study literature have not read extensively (广泛地), and they often have difficulty doing so during their time at university. This is a growing trend that many academics have observed, although it isn’t always the case. Bate told the BBC’s Today programme, “The currently fashionable answer is that it’s to do with the reduced attention due to smartphones, six-minute YouTube videos and instant TikTok hits.”
“Actually it all begins in schools. You only have to look at the thinning of A-level syllabuses (教学大纲) and the tendency to assign works because they’re shorter,” Bate said.
He added that it was also “an unintended consequence of the push in both the top British and American universities towards diversity and access… as some students come from schools where the teachers’ main task is crowd control, and so the demands in terms of reading long books are just not there.”
State-funded charter (特许) schools in the US were an interesting phenomenon, however. “There’s a big comeback of classical education within these schools,” Bate said.
Bate explained that his son was exposed to an extensive variety of works. “My teenager has just graduated from a charter high school called Great Hearts and there they read Iliad, Odyssey, Inferno, Crime and Punishment. He came home one day saying that they had been praised for studying Hegel because it’s really difficult. I’m amazed that 17-year-old American kids are reading Hegel. So there is some hope.”
“If you haven’t got readers, what are writers going to do The deep, thoughtful, quiet reading of great books is good for mental health. It’s also good for developing skills, for concentration and critical thinking, and if that falls away, that is problematic for society and individuals.”
27. How does the author present the topic
A. By stating a worrying change.
B. By citing a research finding.
C. By explaining a cultural concept.
D. By describing a typical professor.
28. Which of the following does Bate think is a reason for the trend
A. Overuse of smartphones.
B. Limited access to literary works.
C. Insufficient school education.
D. Poor learning ability at university.
29. What does Bate imply by referring to his son
A. Classical education is not a lost cause.
B. The young are no strangers to classics.
C. Charter schools deserve more attention.
D. Great books are within teenagers’ reach.
30. What is a suitable title for the text
A. Literary Taste Gives Way to Screens
B. Deep Reading Benefits Mental Health
C. Literature Students Face a Reading Crisis
D. Traditional Education Makes a Comeback
D
A new study offers fresh insight into how people assess the environmental impact of the foods they eat, and the results suggest many are getting it wrong. These misunderstandings point to a clear need for simple environmental impact labels to help guide better choices.
Researchers from the University of Nottingham’s School of Psychology asked 168 participants in the UK to sort a wide variety of supermarket foods into environmental impact categories of their own making. Participants were also shown scientific estimates of each product’s environmental impact and asked whether the results were higher or lower than they expected.
The study found that people tend to assess the impact of food using two main factors: whether the food comes from animals or plants, and how processed it is. In general, participants assumed that meat and dairy products, as well as highly processed foods, are worse for the environment.
However, these assumptions sometimes belie reality. Many participants overestimated the environmental impact of processed foods while underestimating the impact of water-intensive (高耗水的) products. They were also surprised to learn how much higher the environmental impact of beef is compared to other meats like chicken.
Food production plays a major role in environmental issues, including greenhouse gases and biodiversity loss. Encouraging more sustainable eating habits depends in part on understanding how people perceive the environmental footprint of different foods.
Daniel Fletcher, lead author of the study, said, “We found participants would be willing to change their purchasing behavior based on this task, but they may struggle to compare the environmental impact of animal-based products and highly processed foods because they see their effects as too different to weigh against each other. Environmental impact data on food products is opening up new possibilities for this research, and labels that give foods a single overall grade (such as A-E) could help make these comparisons easier for consumers, thus allowing people to make sustainable food choices.”
31. What do the researchers hope to find out about the participants
A. Their understanding of food quality.
B. Their preferences for popular food.
C. Their methods for food categorization.
D. Their view of food’s ecological cost.
32. What does the underlined word “belie” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Ignore. B. Affect.
C. Disclose. D. Mismatch.
33. What do consumers require according to Daniel Fletcher
A. Change of shopping behavior.
B. A uniform grading system.
C. More data on food consumption.
D. A comparison of different foods.
34. What is the purpose of the text
A. To advise on food choices.
B. To call for food eco-labels.
C. To advocate good eating habits.
D. To show dietary carbon footprint.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
We all play little mind games. We set clocks ahead to avoid being late. ____35____ Some imagine the worst, just to scare themselves into working harder. Different tricks, same purpose: to push ourselves when our own motivation isn’t enough.
These tricks are especially common among people who feel they must be perfect for everyone else. These people think the world expects them to nail everything, to never say “I can’t.” For them, doing something isn’t about the thing itself — it’s about not letting anyone down. So here’s the real question: Are you doing this because you want to, or because you’re afraid of what happens if you don’t ____36____
A little trick here and there No big deal. The trouble starts when you can’t stop. When you care too much about what others think, you reach for these tricks all the time. Over time, they stop being tricks. ____37____ And they become hard to spot — even in yourself.
Think of a kid who keeps playing a sport just to make his parents proud. He might love the game, but that’s not why he’s out there. ____38____ So he stays. But anger builds. He can’t be mad at his parents, so he aims it at the other team. Beating them becomes his proof that he’s good enough. This anger becomes his fuel. But look closer: he’s not playing to win. He’s playing to survive.
____39____ But there’s a difference between using one now and then, and building your whole life on them. So it’s worth asking: Do I want to spend my whole life just getting by
A. They become who you are.
B. We all need these tricks sometimes.
C. For these people, it’s almost always fear.
D. Quitting would feel like letting them down.
E. They turn into tools you use without thinking.
F. Pushing yourself a little harder is never a bad thing.
G. Athletes find reasons to get fired up against opponents.

阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。
I started running competitively almost as soon as I could walk. I was three years old when I joined in my first official race. My mom and both of my brothers were runners, so the sport was built into my life from the beginning. When I was young, I enjoyed the freedom, joy, and sense of power running gave me. This pure, concentrated love of the sport gave me wings that carried me through even the toughest practices and races.
However, as I got older, pressure began to build up. I was winning, but I lost sight of my real purpose as a runner: to have fun. I even began to fear hard workouts, knowing I would be disappointed if I didn’t achieve my goals. Before the final season in my high school career, I trained so hard that I got exhausted and hurt my calf. Rather than pausing for treatment and recovery, I chose to get to the line. But at last, I had to step off the track because the pain was simply unbearable.
Recovery was tough. When I was finally able to run again, I was out of shape and couldn’t keep up with my team. Over the next three years, more injuries followed. But later, a famous long-distance runner Cathy’s post changed everything for me. “Every day, I make the choice to show up and see what I’ve got, and to try and be better. My advice: Keep showing up.” With just a few words, she reminded me how simple running really is. I realized I didn’t have to be perfect every day. I just had to show up and give what I had.
Now, I still run every day and have completed four marathons. Joy and gratitude are the center of my practice. Thanks to Cathy, I can always return to the calming belief that things will go my way if I just keep showing up.
40. What did running bring to the author when she was young

【答案】
Dear Jim,
I’m glad that you want to take part in the activity which is called Celebrating China’s National Day. Here are my practical suggestions for you.
I advise that you make a short video that shows great changes of our city. You can collect photos that record our daily life and share them in your work. The reason why I recommend this idea is that it is easy for an exchange student to finish. Besides, it can show how our country develops fast. Many classmates will love the work which carries true feelings.
Wish your creation a big success.
Yours,
LiHua
