When the door opened,Easton recognized his customer was Officer Matthew!He handed the pizza and was about to leave when Officer Matthew stopped him and approached him with an envelope."We were able to raise for your wife's treatment.It's only $2,340,but I'm hoping it'll help.Last night,I thought about how I was unwilling to give the fine to you,but that's our duty,sir.I spoke to your boss,and he agreed that your pay wouldn't be reduced.Take care of your wife,and I appreciate the pizza!"Officer Matthew said gently.
Easton couldn't believe what had just happened and was surprised by what Officer Matthew did for him.With his trembling hands,he opened the envelope and found dollar bills and a note that read:"Our duty is to protect and serve,but we are still humans at the end of the day. "Easton left with his eyes filled with tears.

3.B

W: You gave him ten dollars Surely, he has made a mistake. Go back and ask.
4.B
【原文】M: The film is very good. Shall we meet at 8:00 pm at the entrance of the cinema
W: All right. But how can I get there
M: When you get out of the station, turn left and then keep walking until you come to a church. The cinema is just opposite.

【原文】W: How do you advise people to stay fit and healthy, Rashmi
M: Well, I was reading a scientific journal just this morning saying that working out at the gym is actually less effective than going for a walk regularly in the park.
W: Really Why did it say that
M: I think the idea is that if you do really intensive exercise, then you’re more likely to reward yourself with a bigger snack at the end of the session. But if you just stretch your legs often or take regular gentle exercise, it doesn’t have the same effect.
W: So what do you do You’re in pretty good shape.
M: Well, I try not to pay too much attention to my weight. I’ve never been a fan of the gym and I never go for a run — I find it boring. But recently I’ve got into road cycling. Every couple of weeks a few of us go out for a ride in the countryside — 40 or 50 kilometers. The scenery’s beautiful and it’s a great way to enjoy nature and stay fit at the same time.

M: Were you able to open it before, on the computer you’re using now
W: Yes, I was working on it last night and everything was fine, but this morning I couldn’t open it.
M: Do you think your computer might have a virus

M: I’ll be home after 8 p.m. Send it to me when you get a chance and I’ll call you later.

【详解】The first bicycle appeared in France in the 1790s. It was a little wooden horse with a fixed front wheel.Because the wheel was fixed, it could not be turned right or left. The only way it could be controlled was by the rider pushing against the ground with his or her feet. In 1817, a German replaced the fixed front wheel with one that could be turned. Now the wooden horse could be directed right or left. The rider still needed to push it with his or her feet on the ground.In 1839, a Scottish MacMillan designed the first bicycle-like machine with foot board and rode it for 40 miles in only 5 hours. The bicycle got more comfortable in 1869 when rubber tires were introduced. Around the same time, the front wheels began to grow larger while the back wheels got smaller. During the 1880s, bicycles enjoyed a sudden growth in popularity. However, they weren’t very safe. Sitting high up towards the front of the bicycle and traveling very fast, the rider could be easily thrown over the front wheel if the bicycle hit a small stone. Fortunately, the “safety bicycle” was invented in 1884. The safety bicycle had equal-sized wheels and tires with air in them. And more improvements quickly followed. No doubt there will be further improvements in design and materials in the future.准考证号: 姓名:

Opening the pages of Liuba Draws Beijing takes you on a fascinating visual journey through the heart of China's busy capital city.Within its lively watercolors,traditional hutong,the grand Summer Palace,and the contemporary charm of Beijing's Sanlitun and 798 Art District all come alive through the artistic lens of Liuba Vladimirova,more famously known as Liuba Draws.
Vladimirova's journey from the icy Siberian city of Irkutsk to the vital Beijing started during her college years,when she commenced with an academic exchange program connecting her Russian university with Liaoning University in Shenyang,in Northeast China's Liaoning Province.It was during this transformative period that she first set foot in Beijing.Since then,her affection for the city has been undeniable.
Vladimirova's path as an artist was far from linear (直线的).Since childhood Vladimirova has developed a love for drawing and painting.However,she pursued a different academic and professional route,studying Chinese and international trade in college and later working in trade relations between Russia and China,none of which was directly connected to the world of art.Yet,Vladimirova's inner artist remained alive.
In 2015,Vladimirova began crafting a series of illustrations centered around Beijing,properly named "The Beijing Calendar".What attracts Vladimirova most is Beijing's historic hutong.These narrow alleyways,rich in history and culture,serve as a wellspring (源泉) of inspiration for her artistry.
Vladimirova's ability to catch these hidden small differences likely comes from her unique perspective as an "outsider"—someone who didn't grow up in Beijing.This fresh perspective allowed her to arrive in the city with fresh eyes and an eager heart,ready to embrace a new culture.
24.What do the underlined words "commenced with" mean in paragraph 2?
A. Improved. B. Began. C. Resisted. D. Assessed.
25.What do we know about Vladimirova from paragraph 3?
A. She gave up her dream. B. She won many art prizes several years ago.
C. She was hardworking over her childhood. D. She delayed her artistic career.
26.Why does the author mention hutong?
A. To praise Beijing's architecture. B. To show the inspiration of Vladimirova's art making.
C. To state the main contents of an art book. D. To advise tourists to visit Beijing.
27.Which statement best summarizes Vladimirova's success?
A. Curiosity works wonders. B. Hard work pays off in time.
C. The world is diverse and lively. D. Painting has no national boundaries.
C
Recycling is a great way of doing your bit for the environment and helping to protect the earth's precious resources.However,a new study has revealed that our desire to be sustainable maybe doing more harm than good.According to waste company Biffa,this is because of "wish-cycling" — assuming that items such as disposable coffee cup sand pizza boxes will be recycled if put in the recycling bin.In fact,pollution from those items or other non-recyclables can result in recyclable items that have been put in the correct bin going to landfill.David Heaton,a business director at Biffa,said: "Pollution happens when items are disposed of in the wrong bins or haven't been cleaned before being recycled."
Experts at Biffa analyzed the amounts of non-target and non-recyclable materials that entered UK material recycling facilities between 2016 and 2020.It was found that,in 2016,the average pollution rate of recycling waste was 13.4 percent,rising over four years to 17 percent by the end of 2020.This shows that,even as people are becoming more eco-conscious,wish-cycling is increasing both in households and businesses.
The Biffa experts say that one of the best ways to prevent pollution of recycling is to clean recyclable waste before putting it in the bin.They suggest cutting off the top of old pizza boxes and only recycling that part to avoid pollution from the grease (油脂).Check the on-packaging recycling label to check it can actually be recycled When it comes to plastics,Biffa recommends checking the resin code,the number in the plastic triangle,to know whether it should go in the recycling bin.In general,resin codes 1,2,4 and 5 are recyclable,while 3,6 and 7 are not.Larger items,like electronics,furniture and batteries,can also be recycled but often can not go in household recycling bins as they need specialist separating.These will need to be taken to recycling centers or sustainable waste management companies.
"It's vital as a nation that we get better at effective 'pre-cycling'— sorting waste correctly before collection to reduce pollution rates," added Mr.Heaton.
28.What's the truth of "wish-cycling" according to the first paragraph?
A. The desire to lead a sustainable life.
B. The good intention to help recycling.
C. The habit of throwing items that end up in landfills.
D. The practice of recycling items that can not be recycled.
29.What has experts at Biffa concluded after their analysis?
A. People are becoming more eco-conscious.
B. Wish-cycling is on the rise in recent years.
C. Pollution happens less frequently in recycling facilities.
D. People are used to cleaning recyclable waste before putting it in the bin.
30.Which of the following is a proper way of recycling?
A. Dispose of electronics together with household waste.
B. Skip the step of checking the on-packaging recycling label.
C. Check the resin code of plastics to see whether it is recyclable or not.
D. Cutoff the top of old pizza box and throw the rest to the recycling bin.
31.Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Recycling:a Big Project B. Wish-cycling:a New Trend
C. Wish-cycling:a Growing Concern D. Pre-cycling:an Effective Method
D
In his 1936 work How to Win Friends and Influence People, Dale Carnegie wrote: "I have come to the conclusion that there is only one way to get the best of an argument—and that is to avoid it." This distaste for arguments is common, but it depends on a mistaken view of arguments that causes problems for our personal and social lives—and in many ways misses the point of arguing in the first place.
Carnegie would be right if arguments were fights, which is how we often think of them. Like physical fights, verbal (言语的) fights can leave both sides bloodied. Even when you win, you end up no better off. You would be feeling almost as bad if arguments were even just competitions—like, say, tennis tournaments. Pairs of opponents hit the ball back and forth until one winner comes out from all who entered. Everybody else loses. This kind of thinking explains why so many people try to avoid arguments.
However, there are ways to win an argument every time. When you state your position, formulate (阐述) an argument for what you claim and honestly ask yourself whether your argument is any good. When you talk with someone who takes a stand, ask them to give you a reason for their view and spell out their argument fully. Assess its strength and weakness. Raise objections (异议) and listen carefully to their replies. This method will require effort, but practice will make you better at it.
These tools can help you win every argument—not in the unhelpful sense of beating your opponents but in the better sense of learning about what divides people, learning why they disagree with us and learning to talk and work together with them. If we readjust our view of arguments—from a verbal fight or tennis game to a reasoned exchange through which we all gain respect and understanding from each other—then we change the very nature of what it means to "win" an argument.
32.What is the author's attitude toward Carnegie's understanding of argument
A. Critical. B. Supportive. C. Tolerant. D. Uncertain.
33.Why do many people try to avoid arguments
A. They lack debating skills. B. They may feel bad even if they win.
C. They fear being ignored. D. They are not confident in themselves.
34.What does the underlined phrase "spell out" in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Defend. B. Explain. C. Conclude. D. Repeat.
35.What is the key to "winning" an argument according to the author
A. Sense of logic. B. Solid supporting evidence.
C. Proper manners. D. Understanding from both sides.

Growing plants is often seen as a very “green” thing to do, but like many products, they take a huge amount of energy to produce. 36 For example, they use geothermal(地热的)energy to heat greenhouses and solar power to supply electricity and lighting. While domestic growing doesn t involve the same carbon footprint as commercial growing, it s important to consider what we can all do to minimize our own impact while still enjoying growing plants.
Over-consumption of plants is a big issue. It s so easy to get overexcited when you see all these incredible plants, and you can end up carrying home huge numbers of them. 37 The more plants you have, the more limited your time and resources become, and plants can suffer. This leads to another issue—many people may end up throwing away their plants which don t look perfect or stop flowering, in a similar way to the world of fast fashion. 38
If you are ready and able to increase your collection, propagate(繁殖)from your own plants rather than buying more, and share plants with others. 39 Meanwhile, we can build a community of like-minded, passionate plant people.
Recycling takes a huge amount of input, which can end up more damaging to the environment, so instead of buying something of lower quality that needs replacing every year, buy fewer things of a higher quality. 40 And they can be passed down the generations.
A.But large collections call for an enormous amount of work.
B.Many commercial growers continue to market their produce.
C.This removes the need to buy plants and encourages a sharing culture.
D.These will last many years and be more cost-effective in the long term.
E.So it s important to assess your collection and buy plants you have time to look after.
F.Throwing them away will greatly reduce your gardening footprint on the environment.
G.Many large-scale growers have used technology to minimize their impact on the environment.

At junior high, I took lots of notes during class. So in physics class 56 Monday, I did the same, 57 the teacher spoke so fast that I couldn’t take everything down. The teacher found I 58 (struggle) with note-taking and told me 59 (stop) and just listen. “Thinking is a more important ability than note-taking and 60 (memorize)” he said.
After class on Wednesday, I hurried to the school skateboarding club. I was running out of the classroom 61 I bumped into a girl literally. I said sorry to her and she smiled at me. At the club, I had my first 62 (try) at skateboarding and 63 (fall) off the board a lot. Suddenly, a girl bumped 64 me—the same girl from the corridor! This time, both of us laughed. Her name is Sarah. We started to practice together 65 soon became friends.

67. 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。
Easton retired(退休) as a school teacher,and he didn't have enough savings.What's worse,his wife,Cassandra,had heart disease that needed expensive treatment.
To save his wife's life,Easton didn't have a choice but to take up a job,and he found one as a pizza delivery(递送) man at Rooster's Pizza.On his first day on the job,his co-workers judged him because the sight of an 84-year-old pizza delivery man was undoubtedly a rare one.But Easton didn't care.
After delivering the first two orders that day,Easton was on his way to deliver the third one,when he realized his car was low on gas.He stopped at a gas station,worried he would be late for his next delivery.Determined to make it on time,Easton grabbed the steering wheel and drove as fast as he could.However,as he reached one of the main roads,a police car stopped him.
When Officer Jenkins and Officer Matthew walked up to Easton's car,they were shocked to see an 84-year-old behind the wheel of a pizzeria car.Moreover,they didn't expect an old man to be speeding.
"You see,"Easton said nervously,"I am running late for pizza delivery.We have a policy of delivering pizza within 45 minutes,or I'll have to pay for it out of my pocket,and I need money for my wife's treatment.I hope you understand…"
Officer Matthew looked at Easton's teary eyes and trembling hands and felt deeply sad for him.However,he couldn't go against his line of duty.They had to give him a ticket anyway.
Easton was late for the delivery that day,prompting his manager to deduct(扣除) it from his salary.He was also warned that he would have to leave if he repeated the mistake.
Not losing heart,Easton set out for his deliveries the following day. "Rooster's Pizza!" he shouted as he rang the doorbell of one of the houses on his list.
