阅读下列短文，掌握其大意，从各题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

(A)

For her 85th birthday, I gave my mother Susan an iPad. She’d never used a computer. She had a trying relationship with her TV remote control and a painful experience with her mobile phone. However, this time she was dying to learn about the iPad. She believed that if she didn’t keep up with technology, she would find herself in a computerized kitchen, “unable to open a can of soup”.

Our first task was email. She quickly learned the basic rules but couldn’t understand why she has to email others when she could phone or visit in person.

Next, we dealt with Netflix, the widely-used video website. Mom is a movie lover and she was surprised by the number of crime movies that Netflix can offer. One Saturday, she called me because she was having trouble logging onto(登录)Netflix. I suggested it might require an update. “They probably have fewer people working as it’s a long weekend,” she told me.

Later, she taught herself to learn FaceTime and started her experiments with podcasts, and even started emailing her grandchildren.

As she became more familiar, she began wondering about all the icons(图标), so we set up a weekly lecture, which takes place on the phone, each of us with our iPads. One day, I tried for 45 minutes to help her find the search bar. “It looks like a magnifying glass(放大镜),” I kept saying. Finally, she asked: “You mean the frying pan?”

Unexpectedly, she made great progress. Now she becomes interested in E-books and even check them out in the middle of the night. She watches TV series and knows what’s popular. It’s great to see how much her confidence has grown. Yesterday, she FaceTimed me. “I’ve made a decision,” she said. “I’m going to learn how to operate every piece of technology in the apartment - including the TV remote.” However, I still can’t wait for the day when we can sit down in person and surf the Internet together.

26. Why did Susan decide to learn to use an iPad?

A. To keep up with the times.

B. To connect with her family.

C. To better control her kitchen.

D. To keep in touch with her friends.

27. Which of the following shows the correct order of Susan’s experience?

b. She asked the author about the search bar.

c. She received an iPad as a birthday present.

d. She met difficulties in logging onto the video website.

e. She decided to learn about the technologies in the apartment.

A. c-d-a-b-e B. c-e-d-a-b C. e-c-d-a-b D. e-a-d-b-c

28. Which word best describes Susan?

A. Honest. B. Independent. C. Curious. D. Humorous.

29. What is the author’s writing purpose?

A. To suggest how to help the elder learn new technologies.

B. To criticize modern technology as unfriendly to the elder.

C. To show the importance of learning new technologies.

D. To share her mother’s interesting learning experiences.

We all know there is a problem with plastic pollution. Five trillion plastic bags are used every year. One million plastic drinking bottles are bought every minute.

What if we could use plastic waste to build roads? This is exactly what Toby McCartney has done.

In 2019, McCartney’s UK-based company, MacRebur, built the world’s first plastic road in Elgin town, Scotland. The plastic waste was made into grains and then mixed with bitumen(沥青). The road looks just like any other road. But it has improved strength and is more stretchy(有弹性的)thanks to the plastic.

“Our technology can not only help solve the problem of plastic waste but also produce roads that deal better with changes in the weather, reducing cracks and holes on the roads,” McCartney told the BBC.

McCartney’s idea came from a trip to India. “I saw people in India would put plastic waste into the holes on the roads and burn it. The plastic would melt down and cover the hole,” said McCartney.

“I knew that there must be some similarities between the plastic and bitumen, which both come from oil. That’s how I started to think about mixing them,” he said.

After lots of testing, McCartney found the perfect recipe. And now his company has built many plastic roads around the world, from Australia to Europe. A one-kilometer stretch of roads uses about 684,000 plastic bottles or 1.8 million plastic bags. The road itself can be recycled at the end of its lifetime. The materials can be reused to build new roads.

“We’re just a small part of ending the plastic problems, but it’s nice to be part of it,” McCartney said. “I just don’t want my daughters to live in a world where there are more plastics in our oceans than fish.”

30. Compared with usual roads, which of the following are the advantages of the plastic road?

a. saves money

b. is not easy to break

c. is mixed with bitumen

d. is not afraid of hot weather

A. ab. B. ac. C. bc. D. bd.

31. What caused McCartney to build the plastic road?

A. Indian people’s way of fixing roads.

B. His wish of reducing plastic pollution.

C. His knowledge of plastic and bitumen.

D. Seeing cracks and holes on roads one day.

32. ______ plastic bottles arc needed to build a 10-kilometer stretch of plastic road.

A. 684,000 B. 6.84 million C. 1.8 million D. 18 million

33. What does McCartney mean in the last paragraph?

A. He is willing to offer help in reducing plastic pollution.

B. Children should also join to reduce plastic pollution.

C. Plastic pollution will soon be solved with his help.

D. Plastic pollution is becoming more and more serious.

(C)

On Nov 8, Wang Yaping, a female astronaut of Shenzhou XII mission, became China’s first and the world’s 16th female spacewalker. The expected six-month journey in space has left many curious about the differences between male and female astronauts, especially in extravehicular(舱外的)activities (EVAs). Although female astronauts may face lots of physical challenges, they have unique advantages.

Understanding between astronauts is very important for carrying out EVAs. Women are better in communication and language expression, and this helps female astronauts conduct EVAs. Their strong communication skills and energy also cheer up the crew throughout their stay, according to Pang Zhihao, a spaceflight researcher in Beijing.

Men and women are different in body size, which also gives women unique advantages for spacewalks. “Their generally smaller size is an advantage, as women will be able to control their weight better and thus perform a wider variety of tasks,” Pang told China Daily. Women in general weigh less, eat less food, consume less oxygen, and therefore required less fuel to get into space. A taikonaut must weigh between 55 kilograms and 70 kilograms to fit in the cabin of spacecraft and consume less fuel!

A different body shape requires a different spacesuit. A personalized spacesuit was prepared for Wang’s EVAs, which was lighter than that of the male. Designers optimized the pattern of this spacesuit in the lower limb(下肢)area to make it more suitable for astronauts with slimmer figures.

According to Pang, many studies have found that female astronauts are well adapted to space missions more quickly, and have advantages over male astronauts in qualities such as attention to detail and thinking more carefully. Men are considered to perform better in short-term tasks with clear goals, while women are better in long-term tasks, according to National Geographic.

Women’s participation in EVAs is a necessary part of space missions, and we are experiencing history thanks to Wang's bravery, according to Yang.

37. Which of the following statements about Wang Yaping is TRUE?

A. She is the first female space walker in the world.

B. She is curious about the extravehicular activities.

C. She performed some tasks that her male partners couldn’t do.

D. Wong’s spacesuit was specially designed.

38. What does the underlined word “optimize” mean in this passage?

A. make something useful. B. make something better.

C. make something colourful. D. make something cheaper.

39. What might be the reason why Wang Yaping was chosen to conduct EVAs?

A. She faces less physical challenges.

B. She has better communication skills.

C. She is stronger and healthier.

D. She performs better in short-term tasks.

40. What’s the main idea of the article?

A. The challenges female astronauts face during a spacewalk.

B. The importance of female doing extravehicular activities.

C. The advantages of females doing extravehicular activities.

D. The preparations for the females to carry out space mission.

Sam is a great designer working within a well-known publishing company. For the last three years, he has been working from home. He prefers working from home because he can spend more time lending a helping hand to his family and have a better work-life balance. In fact, Sam isn’t alone. ___41___ Many counties share similar situations.

But why? This is because technology makes it possible for people to surf the Internet and hold online meetings easily. ___42___ Office space is expensive, so if an organization can reduce its workstations, it may be able to move to a smaller office. ___43___ Thus, many homeworkers save a lot of time and they can start the day fresher.

Sam says, “I have been working from home since my son was born and have been really enjoying it. ___44___ I’ve known my boss and colleagues for a long time now, which really helps because you’ve got to trust each other. You also need to have regular contact, or you really miss out on the social side of work.”
