My mother didn’t set out to be a civil rights activist. In fact, she had no intention of becoming a pioneer of any sort. But because of the kind of person she was, and the times she lived through, she turned out to be both. She gave a whole group of black Alabama girls opportunities they otherwise wouldn’t have had, and became a role model for all of us.
In 1941 she bought an old Victorian house to operate as a preschool. The huge, sunny rooms and breezy porches also served as a meeting place for my mother’s first Girl Scout troop.
Though this may seem a small thing now, at the time it was a watershed(分水岭) event. Racism was a fact of life in the 1940s, and African American girls were barred from joining white troops. My mother, who was only five feet tall but could beat you on a fast-paced hike, decided it was time for a change. Her troop was the first for African Americans in Alabama. When Mama saw a need, she filled it.
In 1950, the Girl Scouts sent a group of women-all of them white-from headquarters in New York to help my mother with an overnight training camp. The women met in a wilderness area outside Birmingham where, unknown to them, the Ku Klux Klan(3K党) was active. It never occurred to the women, black and white, that they were violating the rules of segregation(种族隔离) by camping together. That night, my mother awoke to the sound of men’s voices. She stole out of her tent and saw them, dressed in their horrible uniforms. They offered what must have been a terrifying warning: Be gone by sunrise.
She never shared this story with me; people protected their children from some of the uglier sides of racism. But I over-heard my parents talking about it later that night and I realized there was something remarkable about Mama. I felt an obligation to give back, to seek solutions and create opportunities as she did.
\"It’s not something you choose to do; it’s just something you do,\" she would say. And what I’ve found is this: In giving to others, you get as much as you give. 21. What made the author’s mother an advocate for civil rights?
A. Her passion and educational background. B. Her race and financial condition. C. Her personality and social background. D. Her occupation and religious belief.
4
22. Why does the author mention her mother’s height in the third paragraph? A. To indicate her deeply-rooted sympathy for her mother. B. To emphasize her mother’s surprising strength. C. To illustrate what a role model should look like. D. To show her mother differs from average black women.
23. What does the author think of her mother’s meeting with the Ku Klux Klan? A. It proves to be dangerous and unworthy. B. It reveals the danger of racism. C. It violates the rules of segregation. D. It inspires her to be brave and caring.
B
Our brain doesn’t know how to be happy, or even content. It simply lacks the genetic instructions to carry out that task. It knows how to do a million other less important things, from writing a letter to maintaining our balance; from appreciating the music of Bach to smelling a rose, but if you ask the brain to be happy, it simply doesn’t know how to respond.
This is because the genetic code is only concerned with survival and reproduction, which happiness does not necessarily have anything to do with, and therefore belongs in a different realm. Nature doesn’t want us to always feel content and satisfied, let alone happy, as this would lower our guard against possible threats to our survival.
Happiness, as the Brazilian poet Vinicius de Moraes put it, is \"like a feather flying in the air. It flies light, but not for very long.\" It is so elusive that it has also been compared to a butterfly, which \"when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you,\" according to 19th-century American novelist Nathaniel Hawthorne. In any case, what is clear is that happiness is, at best, fleeting(飞逝的) and inconstant.
In this blog, we will look at the myth of happiness from many perspectives and, in the process, we will touch on topics such as happy personalities, the unhappy workings of the brain, evolution, dreams, and even fairy tales. I explore all these issues in detail in my book, which shares its title with this blog. Happiness is a crucial concept. We spend all of our lives pursuing it, so it deserves a very careful analysis.
5
We are determined by our biological design to experience mixed and messy emotions. But the silver lining is the knowledge that having difficult emotions doesn’t represent a personal failure. The inevitable unhappiness that we all suffer from time to time is not a shortcoming that demands urgent repair. Far from it. This unhappiness is, in fact, what makes us human. 24. Why does our brain lack the genetic instructions to be happy?
A. Because being happy is less important than appreciating and creating art. B. Because happiness has little to do with the continuation of a species. C. Because we tend to be more aware of the threats when we are unhappy. D. Because feeling good isn’t one of our concerns in living a life. 25. What does the underlined word in paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. Difficult to achieve. B. Easy to expose. C. Unable to explain. D. Likely to remain. 26. What can we learn from the passage?
A. We should make happiness our top concern no matter what. B. Negative emotions always require immediate attention.
C. Social failures are more likely to be troubled by negative feelings. D. We should accept difficult emotions as a natural part of life.
C
Loneliness is a widespread problem with complex roots.
There has been a quiet pandemic developing while most people’s attention has been on covid-19. The lockdown has worsened a problem that has been spreading in many developed nations for decades: loneliness.
It is a complex issue which covers not only social lives, but the way you work and the way you vote. Noreena Hertz, an academic, deals with the subject in an important new book, \"The Lonely Century\".
Loneliness increases the risk of heart disease, strokes and dementia(痴呆症) . Those who say they are lonely are likelier to be depressed five years later. In addition, lonely people can become
6
more hostile towards others and more attracted to extremist politics.
Part of the problem stems from contemporary employment. Globally, two in five office workers feel lonely at work. This rises to three in five in Britain. Gig-economy(零工经济) jobs can leave people with insecure incomes and without the companionship of colleagues. The pandemic has made it more difficult to make, and maintain, friendships, particularly for new employees.
Ms. Hertz points her finger at other recent developments. One of them is social media. The internet has led to much cyber-bullying (although it has also been a source of companionship during the lockdown). And people glued to their smartphones spend less time interacting socially.
Some changes in behavior are caused by individual choice. Before the pandemic no one was stopping people going to church or taking part in sports. They simply preferred to do other things. American fathers spend three times as much time with their children as they did in the 1960s. That is surely a welcome development.
So recreating a communal society may be difficult. When the pandemic ends, people may enjoy the chance to be with their neighbors and colleagues for a while. But the trend is clear. Technology means that people can get their entertainment at home, and work there, too. It is convenient but it also leads to loneliness.
27. What does the underlined phrase “a quiet pandemic” refer to in the second paragraph? A. Covid-19. B. Loneliness. C. The lockdown. D. A complex issue. 28. Why is the new book mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A. To show the seriousness of loneliness. B. To advertise a new book. C. To give an example of loneliness. D. To introduce what to be discussed. 29. Which of the following is NOT one of the reasons for the trend of loneliness? A. Contemporary employment. B. Social media. C. Individual choice. D. Extremist politics. 30. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Loneliness: Good or Not? B. A Common Disease C. Loneliness: A Clear Trend D. Pandemic and Loneliness

Resolving(解决) Conflict in Friendships
Conflict is surely a common problem in life and friendships. 31 That’s because there isn’t enough depth to guarantee all the trouble it takes to smooth over the disagreement. Unfortunately, even when the friendship reaches a deeper level, conflict continues to happen and can break apart a relationship. Here are some resolutions.
Resolve it the day it happens. One rule my parents follow in their marriage is that they don’t go to bed angry with each other. They always attempt to resolve things the day it happens so that in the morning, it’s a fresh start with no past grudge(怨恨) . I’ve found I need a short cool down period so that I don’t act in anger. 32 Whatever you do, don’t let things ride for too long.
33 Sometimes if you sit down and talk things over, you begin to see where the other person is coming from. Realize that everyone has been created differently with various talents, abilities, and personality traits. For example, you might be a leader while your friend is more of a follower. You may be frustrated with him or her for not being very decisive. Yet it is important to understand that each person is unique and needs to be appreciated.
Initiate resolution. 34 Even when you think the other person is wrong, it’s not a bad thing to say \"I’m sorry if I offended you in that way.\" If you’re honest and genuine in delivering your words, there’s a good chance your friend will respond positively.
Most importantly, be loving in what you do. Try to focus on peacefully resolving the disagreement. It is not a most pleasant task to resolve conflict in any friendship. 35 A. Don’t expect too much.
B. Try to see the other person’s perspective.
C. Be the first person in a fight to say sorry for your part.
D. Many shallow friendships end up being ruined after an argument. E. To say sorry bravely when a conflict breaks out is a better resolution.
8
F. However, it is worth the efforts because it results in a deeper friendship. G. For some, counting to one hundred before saying anything may be an option. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分45分) 第一节(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)

阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
It was August, the peak season for tourism. Olav Hylland, the owner of a local restaurant, was expecting as many as 500 tourists to visit and eat there. With a joyful heart, he jumped into a van, which he had just bought to transport cargo(货物) for his restaurant, and set off.
Leaving his home, he turned onto the main road with a tunnel(隧道) 300 meters ahead. The 11.4 kilometer tunnel was the only way to access the local scenic spot, where his restaurant was located. Two years earlier a truck caught fire inside it and the tunnel’s closure for repairs was a disastrous blow to Olav’s business. The road to his restaurant was blocked and the stream of tourists halted(停止). Although it was difficult, he managed to keep their staff on.
\"And today will be a perfect day.\" Olav thought.
11
Inside the tunnel everything went normal. But when he was near the end, Olav spotted an unusual light 50 meters ahead. Then he saw something burning.
Horrified, he stopped dead in his tracks. A tour bus was on fire! At the back where the engine was, dozens of tourists were stumbling(跌跌撞撞地走) towards him, getting away from the flames. \"They’re going the wrong way.\" Olav thought, knowing the tunnel exit was just 500 meters ahead round a bend ahead of him. Then he realized the bus was now burning so fiercely that it was impossible for them to get around it.
As a former volunteer firefighter, Olav first had to raise the alarm. Grabbing his cell phone, he entered the codes with shaking hands. \"A bus is on fire! Close the tunnel gates!\" Both gates were shut to avoid the entry of more vehicles, but the thick smoke was pouring out of the bus in his direction under the influence of the strong wind. In no time it would black out the tunnel, choking and blinding anyone inside it.
There was no way the poor tourists could outrun the toxic(有毒的) fumes. Every minute counted. 注意:
1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
2.至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语; 3.续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好; 4.续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。 Paragraph 1
Immediately, Olav turned the van round, jumped out and opened the sliding doors to the empty cargo space. Paragraph 2
After a 20 minutes’ desperate drive, finally there they arrived - the exit of the tunnel!

Possible Version
Immediately, Olav turned the van round, jumped out and opened the sliding doors to the empty cargo space. “Everyone, get in here!” He shouted at the top of his lungs, pointing to the van and waving at the panicked crowd. At this, the frightened tourists started to pile in. The deadly
13
fumes were preying on them ruthlessly, contaminating all the air in its path. Olav knew if they didn’t leave soon, the smoke would choke and blind them all. “We are leaving!” shouted Olav. He sprinted to the driver’s seat after making sure no one was left behind. He had barely stepped on the accelerator when the dense smoke devoured the area. Everyone held their breath.
After a 20 minutes’ desperate drive, finally there they arrived—the exit of the tunnel! Everyone’s tension released, they cheered to celebrate their survival and gave thanks to Olav, whose eyebrows, however, knitted into a deep frown. How could his restaurant survive this time if the tunnel was to close again? But that was not going to happen—One good turn deserves another—the fire brigade arrived just in time to put the fire out and the tunnel was reopened for use in a week. Moreover, as the rescue has made Olav a popular attraction among tourists, he now has something new to worry about: how could his small restaurant seat so many guests?

M: Well, the average temperature in Greenland is rising twice as fast as in other places. So, now I have a few trees near my house. Trees didn’t use to exist in Greenland, you know!

advice on how to best get to you from the airport?
M: Yes, well, if you’re flying, Reagan National is the closest. You can take the underground right in from there. Dulles is further away and a taxi is probably the easiest. And then Baltimore-Washington Airport connects to a train that you can take right into the main train station in town.
W: OK, cool, I think Reagan should be the best. And do you pretty centrally lie in DC? Like, next to all the sights and everything? My friend asked me to stay in her house, but I don’t think it would be very convenient.
M: Yep. We’re in the Dupont Circle area, pretty central to DC. You can walk down to the White House. The underground is right around the corner. W: Do you include breakfast?
M: Yes, madam, and we also offer dinner if you like.
W: OK. That sounds good. Thank you. I’m going to think about it and once I’ve got everything booked, I’ll give you a call. M: OK. Have a good day.

W: I’ve just discovered a fantastic new show called How Do They Do That?. The idea is simple. Take a topic — like travel, for example and then think of lots of little mysteries that could be explained. How do planes take off and land? That sort of thing. Then get two young, enthusiastic hosts in a lab to do lots of exciting experiments. Add some pictures to explain the process to the audience and that’s the show. Get the idea?
Each edition looks at a different subject. As well as travel, topics that have already been covered include education, the body, things around the house and magic — my favorite so far. Still to come are personal finances, the natural world, sports, and life and how to live it. The one I’m personally looking forward to the most is how to meet the perfect partner. But some of my friends would like to know how to eat chocolate without putting on weight.
What I like most about the show is that it’s fun and you learn something at the same time, so you don’t feel so guilty about spending 60 minutes in front of the TV each week. So if you aren’t already watching How Do They Do That?, I strongly recommend that you make the time. You’ll never think it boring. It’s on every Tuesday at 9 p.m. but this week’s edition won’t be shown until half an hour later because of the live international soccer game. Get watching and start learning!
