并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
A teacher in the US asked students to finish the sentence: I wish my teacher
knew” However, we have recently asked teachers what they wish their students knew.
Jackie Schneider, music teacher, London
I wish my students knew that education is not a competitive sport. No child is a
number. Levels tell you more about the school than the child. In the same way, some kids
take longer to learn to walk and talk and some take longer to learn literacy and numeracy
skills(识字和算术技能), which does not matter. Every child has the potential to be gifted
and talented. I wish they knew that reading could bring them more joy than they could
ever imagine and that their singing voice is beautiful.
Avais Qureshi, citizenship teacher, London
I wish they knew that life is about so much more than who approves of you and who
doesn't. A lot of kids are too hung-up on peer groups. I wish they knew that
this time doesn't return: they need to focus on their top tasks and getting the grades they
need.
Nandia Helal, Langdon Academy, London
I wish my students knew how hard we work. I have them on my mind for 12-15
hours a day. If I'm out on the weekend, there’s always a sense of guilt----like I should be
marking or planning lessons for the upcoming week. I never feel like I'm doing enough
for their education.
Geoff Barton, head teacher, King Edward VI School, Bury St Edmunds
I wish my students knew that while school and qualifications matter a lot, they are
merely doors into our future: the really important things in our lives, and the people who
will mean most to us, all lie ahead. Students should seize every opportunity now, in and
beyond the classroom, to develop the skill, qualities and knowledge ready for the
adventures that lie ahead.
21. Jackie Schneider thinks that _________.
A. it's easier for kids to learn to walk than to learn literacy skills
B. it does not matter whether a kid learns quickly or slowly
C. education is something like a competitive sport
D. reading is more joyful than singing
22. Avais Qureshi wants kids _________.
A. to value others' views
B. to return to the traditional times
C. to be harmonious with peer fellows
D. to concentrate on their own business
23. What is Nandia Helal like?
A. She is a responsible teacher.
B. She feels content with her teaching.
C. She wants her students to work hard.
D. She thinks she has done too much for education.
24. According to Geoff Barton, _________.
A. qualifications matter much more
B. skills, qualities and knowledge are doors into the future
C. students develop different skills and qualities merely in class
D. students will experience really important things in the future
25. What does the underlined word “they" in the last paragraph refer to?
A. My students. B. School and qualifications.
C. The really important things. D. The skills, qualities and knowledge.
B
Understand your directional future, and plan ahead, but most of all plan a life which
is full of excitement and a life which you'll enjoy living.
As the manager of the World Youth Organization, I must say, “It is not quite easy to
get this position.” My parents have always been top supporters for my educational
progress rather than my true passionwhich of course is the World Youth Organization.
There have been many arguments when it comes to the controversial topics. Time after
time I have to protect my belief and hope it will come true one day.
Proving one wrong, especially your parents, is a tough ride. But when you love
something, you constantly put up a fight. You stand for what you believe in, which is one
of the most important aspects of life. Any parent or carer would require too much, “You
must go to university”, “You will not get anywhere without that degree.” All of those
sentences make the perfect sense, when you’re dreaming of becoming a nurse, doctor,
teacher or scientist, or a career path which requires that important degree. But I believe
what many parents see is that when one has the degree, he/she is automatically set on the
right path of life.
Howeverwhen the truth is bitter, it doesn't always go smoothly. If I am not full of
passion, will I lead a happy life? Possibly. Will I be true to myself ? No. However, if you
are enthusiastic about the subject you study, you are willing to do everything to make it a
reality.
A person can take many paths in life, and you just need to find the best one for
yourself. I strongly agree with considering something to fall back on just in case plan A
doesn't go well. Stick with your passion as plan A, unless staying in college can ensure
you are going to be okay in the future.
Follow your passion, be prepared to work hard, be devoted and above all, don't let
anyone limit your dreams.
26. What attitude do the writer's parents hold towards his choice?
A. Supportive. B. Negative. C. Positive. D. Interested.
27. Which of the following can cause a fight between you and your parents in the writer's
view?
A. You go to university. B. You listen to your parents.
C. You hold on to your belief. D. You study hard for the degree.
28. What does the underlined part “plan A” in the fifth paragraph refer to?
A. Your passion. B. Your happy life,
C. The subject you study. D. The college you will go to.
29. What is the most important thing in exciting life, according to the last paragraph?
A. Love. B. Hard work. C. Devotion. D. Independence.
30. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Always Stick with Your Passion as Plan A
B. A Generation Gap Between Children and Parents
C. The Importance of Gaining a Degree
D. Attempt to Make a Dream a Reality
C
Being in the midst of a pandemic lockdown can make people feel worried. But
nothing has shown this panicky behavior more than storing specifically toilet paper.
Seemingly transcending borders and cultures, people from all over the world,
including the US, UK and Japan, have been clearing supermarket shelves mainly for this
necessity. But what’s the reason for this sudden toilet paper storing? You can understand
panic buying food, but do we really need that much toilet paper?
Steven Taylor, author of the book The Psychology of Pandemics, told the
Independent that our toilet paper storing is a product of our disgust(厌恶). During a
pandemic, people’s sensitivity to disgust increases, like when you move aside if someone
nearby sneezes (打喷嚏).
“Disgust is like an alarm … and what better tool for removing disgusting material
than toilet paper. I think this is how it became a conditioned symbol of safety,” he said.
Writing for The Conversation, Niki Edwards of The Queensland University of
Technology said, “When people hear about the novel coronavirus, they are afraid of
losing control. And toilet paper feels like a way to maintain control over health and
cleanliness.”
Another one of the most important reasons behind this toilet paper trend, according
to the BBC, is the snowball effect. Due to its reports, both in the news and social media,
people naturally ask, “Will there be enough toilet paper for my family and me?” This
leads to more people following the crowd and buying toilet paper because of their fear of
missing out.
“Fear spreads easily. So when you see people around you buying things in a
panicky way, it’s going to make you feel more anxious,” wrote American psychologist
Baruch Fischhoff for CNBC.
While there are, of course, selfish people who store just because they can, it’s worth
keeping things in perspective. Remember, just as countries are cooperating to find a
vaccine, we must cooperate to ensure that everyone has their share of necessities.
31. The underlined word “transcending” in the second paragraph probably means “____”.
A. going beyond
B. connecting with
C. getting an understanding of
D. making good use of
32. According to Dr Steven Taylor, what does this toilet paper trend result from?
A. The desire to get rid of disgusting material.
B. The fear of losing control over cleanliness.
C. The frequent reporting on toilet paper.
D. The selfish side of human nature.
33. Whose words are quoted to explain “the snowball effect”?
A. Steven Taylor’s B. Niki Edwards’
C. Baruch Fischhoff ’s D. The author’s
34. What is the author’s purpose in writing this text?
A. To explore the bad effects of the toilet paper trend.
B. To explain why people tend to store pile toilet paper.
C. To criticize those people who store toilet paper.
D. To discuss people’s different attitudes toward the toilet paper trend.
35. Which of the following statement do you think the author will probably NOT agree
with?
A. The toilet paper storing can relieve people’s anxiety.
B. It’s selfish of those to store too much toilet paper than they need.
C. Panic buying is quite understandable.
D. It’s better for us to stay calm and reasonable so as not to follow the toilet paper trend.

In this fast-paced life, it’s hard to find the time to cook. But cooking for other people
can be fun and beneficial because it comes with some positive psychological benefits.
36 .
Performing an act for another human being, like cooking for them, is a form of
selflessness. And it can make people feel happy and connected to others.
Cooking is a form of nurturing (养育).
When it comes to cooking, you are feeding someone, which is necessary for
survival. Cooking for others is nurturing. 37 .
Cooking can create bonds.
If you’re cooking for someone, even if they’re not present during the act, it can
absolutely bring a sense of closeness in that you're expressing your love and care for
someone. 38 . And cooking for others helps us build and strengthen those connections.
39 .
Not only does cooking for yourself help you eat more healthfully, but it also sends
yourself a message that you are important. Cooking can also help raise your confidence.
Cooking is a practice of mindfulness.
Cooking can encourage us to really focus. 40 : walk away for a minute and you
can burn the onions; check in with your phone and your water can overflow.
Cooking brings us together, and it continues to create communities ---- and with
community comes feelings of connection and happiness. Now all you have to do is find
the time to add cooking into your busy life.
A. Making connections is one of human’s basic needs
B .If you lose your focus things can easily go wrong
