Marcelo Toledo usually creates works of art out of metal. Now the Argentine artist is working with a new material: waste masks from the COVID-19 pandemic (流行病) to create an exhibition exploring the painful impact of the virus.
Toledo, who has made decorations for the musical "Evita" on Broadway, was among the first in Argentina to be infected by COVID-19, which left him hospitalized for eight days. The experience led to a series of artworks, including a 14-meter mask with the Argentine flag that he placed on the famous Obelisk in Buenos Aires to raise awareness about organ donation during the pandemic.
For his new exhibition, the "Museum of the After," Toledo is collecting recycled coronavirus waste sent by hospitals, laboratories and random people, including old medical parts and newspapers about the pandemic.
"I am excited to be able to transform pain into beauty and this. exhibition is just recording everything that is happening to us as a society," Toledo said. The artworks, which will go on show from September in a public space in downtown Buenos Aires, will all be made from waste materials or garbage that people send him. "It is the first time that I have done an exhibition in which I do not have to buy any of the elements," he said.
In the exhibition there will be a real ship that will symbolically cross a "storm" and recycling islands to raise awareness about the importance of caring for the environment. "The exhibition will tell the story of this ship that went on sailing after the storm, which is a great metaphor (隐喻) for what is happening to us. This pandemic is a great global storm," Toledo said.
As with the huge mask, which was replicated (复制) in countries such as the United States and Japan, the artist dreams of replicating the new exhibition in other cities around the world.
24. What inspired Toledo to make the 14-meter mask
A. His-hospital stay. B. His fear of COVID-19.
C. His Broadway experiences. D. His research on organ donation.
25. What is special about the artworks in the "Museum of the After"
A. They were exhibited. in hospitals. B. They were produced in public places.
C. They were created by random people. D. They were made out of used things.
26. What is Toledo trying to express by the ship crossing a "storm"
A. Our awareness of environmental protection is improving.
B. We should make every effort to defeat the pandemic.
C. Our irresponsible behavior leads to natural disasters.
D. We suffer a lot from the COVID-19 pandemic.
27. What does Toledo hope to do
A. Make more huge masks. B. Host exhibitions on different themes.
C. Reproduce his exhibition in other places. D. Collect exhibition elements from around the world.

Adolescence (青春期) is a stressful time. From friends to families, from home to school, stressful situations become common. Now, a new study shows an unexpected factor (因素) might cause teens to respond strongly to stress.
Jonas Miller, a psychologist at Stanford University, wanted to know whether air pollution might affect teens' response to stress. his team recruited (招募) 144 tweens and teens for the study, most of whom lived in or near San Francisco, which ranks among the ten U.S. cities having the worst air quality. The researchers used data on air pollution collected by the city to see how polluted the air was near each recruit's home. They then collected physical. and social information about the students and invited them to participate in a stressfuf.test.
Before the test, the researchers used sensors to record participants' heart rate and sweat levels for five minutes-as they rested. Then the test began. A researcher read aloud the beginning of a story and told each participant to make up an exciting ending, which they would have to memorize and present aloud to a judge. After finishing this task, the judge had the participant do math problems. If they made a mistake, they had to start over. The whole time, sensors recorded heart rate and sweat levels.
At rest, all the students had similar heart rates and sweat levels, Miller found. But as the test got tough, kids from neighborhoods with more air pollution reacted more strongly to stress. Their heartbeats became irregular. They sweated more than teens who lived in cleaner places.
Miller looked at other possible causes of those strong reactions in the students. including their height and weight, stage of adolescence, family income and neighborhood. None of them explained the stronger stress response. Such responses are linked to negative feelings, Miller notes. Over time, these responses can "contribute to problems with both physical and mental health".
"This is an interesting study," says Anjum Hajat, an epidemiologist who studies the causes of disease. Miller's
study "provides unique evidence of the negative health impacts of air pollution among adolescents," Hajat says.
28. What did Miller's study intend to find out
A. The factors increasing teens' stress.
B. The level of air pollution in San Francisco.
C. The effect of air pollution on teens' feelings of stress.
D. The relationship between air pollution and teens' physical health..
29. What were participants asked to do in the stressful test
A. Retell an exciting story. B. Invent an ending to a story.
C. Make up an amusing story. D. Find the mistakes in a story.
30. What did Miller take into consideration when analyzing his research results
A. Parents' income. B. Parents' education.
C. Children' s mental health. D. Child-parent relationship.
31. What is Hajat's attitude toward Miller's study
A. Skeptical. B. Conservative. C. Uncaring. D. Positive.

When you see the Lion of Judah you do not think "e-commerce". Its lower decks (甲板) have 467 beds where passengers sleep when travelling up the Amazon River. But when the Amazon's largest department store, Bemol, started delivering to customers in the. rainforest, these three-decker passenger boats were its chosen means of transport
Bemol sold fridges and televisions in the traditional way from its stores in Manaus until 2018, when one of the founders' grandsons, Denis Minev, took over. He suspected there were hundreds of thousands of customers up and down the Amazon that Bemol wasn't reaching and decided to go to them.
But delivering parcels in the rainforest is difficult and expensive. Consumers in far places either had to pay up to 30% of the product's price for shipping and wait a month or longer for the postal service to deliver it or spend money and time on shopping trips to Manaus. Mr Minev made what sounded like an impossible promise: to deliver an order placed online within a week for not more than the Manaus price". -
Mr Minev’s experience at a cooking-gas firm, also owned by his family, showed him how challenging the Amazon's delivery could be. So rather than bu his own boats, risking crashes, fuel theft and high debt, Mr Minev oulsourced (外包) delivery to the brightly painted ships that carry people and provisions around the region.
To encourage Amazonians to place their first online orders, Bemol set up Wi-Fi in every town where it launched e-commerce. Amazonians who lack savings or credit cards can use zero-interest loans starting at $26 to finance their purchases; 85% of Bemol's online sales are paid for in this way. Bemol allows returns, but encourages customers to accept vouchers (代金券) instead. "The traditional e-commerce model without a physical presence doesn't work in the Amazon," says Mr Minev.
32. What does the underlined word "them" in paragraph 2 refer to
A. The founders of Bemol. B. Bemol' s stores in Manaus.
C. Customers along the Amazon. D. Passengers on the Lion ofJudah.
33. What promise did Mr Minev make to online consumers in far places
A. They can obtain a discount of 30%.
B. They can return products within a month.
C. They can pay after receiving their ordered products.
D. They can enjoy market prices and a fast delivery service.
34. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about
A. Bemol's ways to increase online sales in the Amazon. B. Difficulties of launching c-commerce in the Amazon.
C. The trend of placing online orders among Amazonians. D. The influence of e-commerce on Amanianc
35. What can be the best title for the text
A. The rise of c-commerce B. The challenge for Bemol
C. Department stores online D. Parcels in the rainforest

You may have come across the picture that has a number drawn on the floor with two people standing on either side of it. One person sees a 6, and the other sees a 9. They are both right, but they are wrong in the eyes of the other person. This is perspective (角度). ______36_______ Instead, what we usually have are two different perspectives on one thing..
"You may not realize how important your perspective on life is because we often feel that as long as other people's opinions and decisions do not affect us, ours should not affect them. However, the fact is that our perspective on life does affect the people around us. ______37_______ We can end up having two adults who refuse to agree and separate after a heated argument, destroying the chances of building a relationship. We can also end up having two adults who change positions and perspectives to see that this can either be a 6 or a 9, depending on where they stand. ______38_______ And all they have to do is view things from a different perspective.
Having a good perspective on life gives you an advantage. First of all, you are a lot more open to seeing from other people's perspectives, thus making it easy for you to create meaningful relationships. ______39_______ If you live a life where you are constantly showing thankfulness and being happy, then you have lived a satisfying life.
The moment your perspective on life comes into play, always remember that the other person's perspective matters as well. ______40_______ A lot of quarrels, battles, and wars could be avoided if people saw things from another person s perspective.
A. Try to put yourself in someone else' s shoes.
B. In life, few things are absolutely right or wrong.
C. Let's go back to the 6 and 9 example we begin with.
D. It also gives you a lot more reasons to be grateful and happy.
E. Your perspective determines how other people deal with you.
F. This can graduate into handshakes and the start of a friendship.
G. Change your perspective so that you can see the most growth in your mind.

Having worked at a small food store for two years, I thought I had become successful at what our manager called “customer relations”. I firmly believed that a friendly smile and an automatic “sir”, “madam”, “thank you” and “sorry” would see me through any situation. But on a Christmas night an old woman shook my belief that such a glib (油嘴滑舌的) response could smooth over any difficulty while dealing with other human beings.
The moment she entered the store, the woman presented a sharp contrast to our shiny store with its bright lighting and neatly arranged shelves. Walking as if each step were painful, she slowly pushed open the glass door. On such a zero-degree night, she was wearing only a faded print dress, a thin sweater too small to button, and black slippers with the backs cut out to expose heels. There were no stockings or socks on her blue-veined (青筋的) legs.
After walking around the store for several minutes, the old woman stopped in front of the rows of canned vegetables. She looked at the row of cans, finally picked up a can of corn and stared at the label. At that point, I decided to be a good and polite employee and asked her if she needed help. As I stood close to her, my smile became harder to maintain. An unpleasant smell of sweat rose from her torn clothing.
“I need some food,” she muttered in reply to my bright “Madam, can I help you ”
“Are you looking for corn, madam ”
“I need some food,” she repeated, looking down at the can in her hand, “Any kind.”
“Well, the can of corn is ninety-five cents, madam.” I said in my most helpful voice. “Or if you like, we have a special on bread today.”
After a short pause, she lifted her head and said, “But I can’t pay.”
For a second, it was on the tip of my tongue to tell her that she could take the corn. Then the employee rules flooded into my mind: remain polite but do not let the customers take advantage of you.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好。
At the thought of that, I managed a friendly smile.

Instantly I rushed out of the door with the can of corn and stopped the old woman.

32. C。篇章结构题。根据划线单词所在句可知,Minev认为Bemol 的产品还未能触及亚马逊河流沿线成千上万的顾客,于是他决定将公司业务拓展到这些人。由此可知,此处them指代亚马逊河流沿线成千上万的顾客。

第二节
主题语境:人与自我——做人与做事

36. B。根据设空处后一句Instead, what we usually have are two different perspectives on one thing可知,看待一件事通常有两种不同的角度,由此可知B项“生活中很少有什么事情是绝对正确的或错误的”符合语境。two different perspectives与B项中的right or wrong呼应。
37. C。设空处上文介绍了看问题角度的重要性,下文用“6”和“9”的例子证明看问题角度对人们的影响,因此设空处应为过渡句,要引出“6”和“9”的例子,故C项符合语境。
38. F。本部分介绍由于看问题角度不同导致的两种结果:如果两人无法达成一致,就可能爆发争吵,失去发展友谊的机会;也可能两人交换位置,从对方角度看问题,会发现两人都是对的,这样的话他们就会握手言和,开始一段友谊。故F项符合语境。F项是We can also end up having two adults who change positions ... where they stand的结果,且与destroying the chances of building a relationship形成对比。
39. D。本段介绍正确看待生活的好处。根据设空处后一句中的you are constantly showing thankfulness and being happy可知,D项符合语境。thankfulness和happy与D项中的grateful 和happy构成词汇复现。

Good morning, everyone.
I’d like to share my opinion on watching short videos, which has both pros and cons. On the one hand, watching the entertaining and easy-to-understand short videos can help us to relax to some extent. On the other hand, students lacking self-discipline are easily addicted to watching short videos, thus affecting their study and life.
Dear fellows, we should set a limit to our leisure time on short videos. But if you are not disciplined, you’d better shy away from them.
That’s all. Thank you.
Paragraph 1:
At the thought of that, I managed a friendly smile. Then I nearly automatically said, “I’m sorry, madam, but I can’t give away anything for free.” Hearing this, the old woman nodded her head, her face darkened and eyelids dropped. Unwillingly, she put the can back on the shelf, walked shyly past me toward the door and out she went. It was at that moment that I felt regretful inside me. How I wished I hadn’t said those words!
Paragraph 2:
Instantly I rushed out of the door with the can of corn and stopped the old woman. “Madam, Merry Christmas!” said I, putting softly the can of corn into her hand. For a second, I could feel that her hand trembled. Without waiting for her reply, I just waved her goodbye and returned inside the store. For the rest of my work, the image of the woman constantly reminded me that while dealing with customers, it was sincere concern rather than a glib response that could smooth over any difficulty.
