A
In this most unusual year, the gift of giving will feel especially good. These tips can help make the season merry
and bright for everyone.
What’s Different This Year
Hot Ticket Items May Be Extra Hot: Some companies have scaled back their holiday ordering this year to trim
inventory, so popular products might sell out fast — in stores and online. So if you see a good price for an item on your
list, be sure to grab it. And plan to ship gifts at least two weeks before Christmas Eve.
Online Sales Will Start Early
This year, it maybe more like Cyber Season, with online promotions and sales starting right after Halloween. With
concerns about crowds, retailers will likely save a lot of their inventory for online sales. To avoid parking lot chaos, try
to pick up your purchases first thing in the morning or later in the evening, when wait times should be shorter.
Outlets Are Online Too
If one of your holiday shopping traditions is a trip to the outlets, you can still experience the thrill of the bargain
hunt—from home. Shoppremiumoutlets.com is the virtual version of the country’s largest outlet company. In
someways, it’s even better than an in-person trip because you can shop by item or category and immediately see what
★启 用 前 绝 密 （3月18
日）
different retailers have in stock, rather than going store to store .
When to Shop
Not on Thanksgiving: Many stores that opened their doors on the holiday last year have announced that they will
be closed this year. One upside for shoppers is rock-bottom prices as some stores liquidate (清 仓). The downsides:
They might not be around if you need to return something or use a gift card. In other words: Bankruptcy buyers
beware.
21. Which is the best time to send gifts?
A. October 30. B. December 9. C. December 15. D. December 24.
22. What can we learn about holiday shopping this year?
A. Shoppers can only buy items online.
B. Shopping on Thanksgiving is the best choice.
C. Popular products might sell out fast only in stores.
D. Shoppers may see a good price for an item right after Halloween.
23. Who will be most interested in this passage?
A. People who are money-less. B. People who like shopping at home.
C. People who are retailers. D. People who are fond of bargains.
B
During the first half of the year 2020, Australia experienced an extreme drought followed by disastrous bushfires
and heavy rainfall that brought massive flooding. Next came the pandemic（流行病）. With people not coming in to
the lab or staying only long enough to conduct their experiments, we lost our sense of interpersonal connection. Then,
in July, our director shared that she had been diagnosed with a rare and aggressive cancer.
In the wake of that shocking announcement, one of the center’s group leaders suggested we send our director
weekly good news to keep her informed and to try to lift her spirits. One week later, we sent the first email.
The effect of this simple newsletter — which went to our director and all the group members as well as leaders —
was significant. “I love good news time,” a colleague wrote, “It really is uplifting.”
These days, we solicit good news every Wednesday and send out an email every Friday. The process and format
are simple and no-frills, making the newsletter sustainable. Good news includes securing grants and fellowships, much-
needed new computers arriving, a student submitting their thesis, publishing papers, becoming parents, turning 40, and
— of course — growing roses on one’s balcony.
Last month, one group leader’s good news was that, after breaking his arm, he finally had his cast （ 石
膏）removed. The next week, he reported that his daughter broke her arm, saying that the number of broken bones in
his family is a conserved quantity. It wasn’t exactly good news, but it did make me laugh quietly. Equally important,
sharing it helps us stay connected in these difficult times.
Regardless of what the future holds, we plan to continue to share our good news.
24. In which respect do the author and his members benefit from the news in the text?
A. Improving working efficiency. B. Creating a competitive atmosphere.
C. Strengthening each other’s bond. D. Being reminded of positive things.
25. What is the main purpose of paragraph 1?
A. To lay the foundation for academic research.
B. To describe how unlucky they were in 2020.
C. To provide background for sharing good news.
D. To stress the necessity of cheering up the unfortunate.
26. How can we find the news listed in paragraph 4?
A. No good news is too small to share. B. Good news helps sweep away tragedies.
C. News making you laugh is good news. D. Never ignore the positive side in bad news.
27. Which word can best describe the the group leader mentioned in paragraph5?
A. Humorous. B. Easy-going. C. Sympathetic. D. Open-minded.
C
Every woman dreams of receiving a huge, sparkling and priceless diamond. Now scientists have discovered the
largest diamond in the universe.
　But it’s well beyond the reach of the most lovestruck men — 50 light years to be precise. Space scientists revealed
that they had discovered a ten billion trillion trillion carat gem. Measuring 2,500 miles across and weighing five million
trillion trillion pounds, the rock was found on Valentine's Day buried in the core of a white dwarf star (白矮星）in the
constellation Centaurus（人马座）.
“It’s the mother of all diamonds,” said Travis Metcalfe, who led the team of researchers at the Harvard-
Smithsonian Centre for Astrophysics in America.
“You would need a jeweller’s loupe (放大镜) the size of the Sun to grade this diamond.” Named Lucy, after the
Beatles' song Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, the rock has sent a ripple of excitement through the scientific world.
　The largest diamond found on earth was the 3,106-carat ( 克 拉 ) Cullinan. It was cut into nine major stones,
including the 530-carat Star of Africa, now a part of the Crown Jewels. Diamonds were first discovered in India more
than 2,800 years ago. The Ancient Romans believed that the stones were splinters of stars that had tumbled to earth.
　　In Ancient Egypt, diamonds were symbols of eternity and were used in funeral rites. In the Middle Ages, men
wore them to symbolize their courage and virility. The tradition of giving them as love tokens dates from 1477, when
Archduke Maximilian of Austria gave a diamond ring to Mary of Burgundy.
28. The largest diamond in the universe___________.
A. was found 50 years ago. B. was in the centre of a white dwarf star.
C. was too large to measure. D. could be graded by a common jeweller's loupe.
29. What can we infer from Paragraph 5-6?
A. Diamonds have symbolized love since 1477.
B. The largest diamond on earth was found 2,800 years ago.
C. The Crown Jewels was totally made of the 530-carat Star of Africa.
D. At present, men wear diamonds to symbolize their courage and virility.
30. Which of the following best serves as the title?
A. Diamond — a must on important occasions B. Love — the symbolism of diamonds
C. Discovery — the largest diamond in the world D. Diamond — the dream of women
31. You can probably read the passage in _____.
A. a tour guide. B. a poster. C. an official document. D. a magazine.
D
Ever wonder how your brain works when making decisions bigger than medium versus (与...相对）spicy salsa,
like buying a car or accepting a job offer? Researchers from the University of Dundee in Scotland conducted a study
that clarifies why you may want to have a small bite before making that big decision.
Benjamin Vincent from the University of Dundee’s Psychology department and his co-author Jordan Skyrnka
tested 50 people two times: once when they followed their normal eating patterns and once when they did not eat
anything during the day. Using three different types of rewards (food, money, and song downloads), the team
discovered when presented with the choice of receiving the reward now versus double the award at some point in the
future, participants would usually volunteer to wait for 35 days to earn a larger bounty, but when they were hungry,
they said they would only wait three days.
“We wanted to know whether being in a state of hunger had a specific effect on how you make decisions only
relating to food or if it had broader effects, and this research suggests decision-making gets more present-focused when
people are hungry,” Vincent said in a story about the study on the university’s website. “You would predict that hunger
would impact people’s preferences relating to food, but it is not yet clear why people get more present-focused for
completely unrelated rewards…Hunger is so common that it is important to understand the non-obvious ways in which
