It was hard not to notice the 8-year-old boy across the street who stormed in and out of his own house. He did it often enough that a neighbor, William Dunn, wondered what was going on in his life. So Dunn asked him. “He told me that he didn’t have a father,” said Dunn, now 58,“and I realized there might be something I could do for him.”
That something was fishing, a passion Dunn’s father had shared with him.“ Fishing always brought me peace and patience. When you’re on the water, you can forget about your problems and just appreciate the moment!” Dun n then got permission from the boy’s mother to take him fishing.
During the past 16 years, Dunn has taken groups of kids out almost every weekend to fish. Most didn’t have father figures in their lives and had never fished before. “They’d been through a lot, and their lives were difficult,” Dunn said. “But when they were fishing, all of that faded away. Out on the boat, they’d be laughing and smiling and making new friends. I knew I was on to something.”
In the beginning, Dunn spent a good chunk of his paycheck to rent boats for the kids. Then, in2018, he started the nonprofit Take a Kid Fishing Inc. He and some volunteers have introduced more than 2,500 kids most without fathers around ——to the calming peace found on the water. One of those kids was Jayden Pryor, who struggled emotionally when his father died in a car accident in January, 2020.
Jayden, now 13, has become a devoted fisherman and credits Dun n with helping him mature. “I hope he knows I mean it when I say thank you,” he said.
Dunn became fatherless too as his own father passed away this past December. As a result, the fishing trips have taken on new meaning for him. “There’s nothing like feeling that first tug on the line and seeing a kid light up with a smile,” Dunn said. “I feel lucky to witness that every weekend!”
24. Why would Dunn have a chat with the 8-year-old boy
A. Because he wanted to take the boy fishing.
B. Because he learnt that the boy was fatherless.
C. Because he was confused by the boy’s behavior.
D. Because he wanted to do something for the boy.
25. What can be inferred about the kids following Dunn to fish
A. They all lead a miserable life. B. They missed their fathers very much.
C. They’re all abandoned by their fathers. D. They forget about sufferings temporarily while fishing.
26. Which words can best describe William Dunn
A. Tolerant and patient. B. Considerate and generous.
C. Responsible and creative. D. Honest and modest.
27. What’s the main idea of the text
A. Thousands of kids fell in love with fishing.
B. Fishing brings happiness to fatherless children.
C. A good neighbor becomes the father of thousands of children.
D. A nonprofit organization is established to teach kids fishing.
C
Cutting our use of fossil fuels by making energy from solar panels and wind farms is a well-known way to tackle climate change but a new study shows that soil could play a big role too.
Scientists are looking at ways to store the gas carbon dioxide(CO ) on Earth. That’s because too much of it in the atmosphere is one of the main causes of global warming. CO comes from natural sources and from human activities like burning fossil fuels(coal, oil and gas). If there is too much of it in the Earth’s atmosphere, it can trap in the Sun’s heat, leading to climate change. The soil study was led by Jacqueline McGlade, former chief scientist at the UN Environment Programme.
McGlade says that if half of the world’s agricultural soil stored just 1% more CO , the world would almost be on track to keep to the 2015 Paris Agreement. In the Paris Agreement, most of the world’s countries promised to stop average temperatures rising above a certain point that would be bad for the planet.
McGlade says that changing farming methods will improve the health of soil and its ability to store CO . She suggests cutting the use of artificial fertilizers. These are plant foods made from fossil fuels that contain growth-boosting ingredients.
Other ways to help include ploughing less to stop soil drying out or washing into rivers, and planting cover crops. Cover crops are not harvested for food, they are grown to give the soil a break. One cover crop is clover, a plant that naturally gives the soil nitrogen a substance that helps other plants grow.
McGlade says, “ Changing farming could make soils carbon-negative, making them absorb carbon and reducing the cost of farming.” She says that, in the long term, it would also boost food production.
28. What’s paragraph 2 mainly about
A. The concern of scientists. B. The harm of carbon dioxide.
C. The forming reason of climate change. D. The complexity of the Earth’s atmosphere.
29. What’s McGlade’s attitude towards artificial fertilizers
A. Supportive. B. Favorable. C. Disapproving. D. Ambiguous.
30. How does the author explain the concept of “cover crop”
A. By quoting others’ comments. B. By offering an example.
C. By listing statistics. D. By comparison.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. How to tackle climate change B. Soil could get climate on track
C. Farming is essential to climate D. How to improve the health of soil
D
When parents discover their children have lied to them for the first time, it can often come as a shock to find their children are capable of such a trick. But new research has suggested many parents may not even notice many of the lies their children tell them.
Psychologists have discovered that most parents are overconfident about their children’s honesty and this may impair their ability to discover a lie. The findings may help to explain why some parents seem to be willing to let their children get away with almost anything even in the face of evidence. They say parents suffer from a “truth bias(偏见)”with their own youngsters, but when faced with lies from other people’s children, they have less difficulty telling whether a statement is true or not.
Dr. Angela Evans, a psychologist at Brock University in Canada, said, “The close relationship that parents share with their own children may lead to parents’ failing to detect their children’s lies. Parents’ truth bias may result in parents’ being less doubtful about their children, allowing the children to successfully cheat them.” Most children are thought to start lying as early as two years old but start telling more believable lies at around the age of four years old. Learning how to lie is considered as a key part of cognitive(认知的)and social development in children. But many parents are shocked when their children start lying to them. In their study, Dr. Evans and her colleagues filmed 108 children aged between 8 and 16 as they performed a test after being asked not to look at the answers. They were asked afterwards if they had looked, with 50 truthfully denying looking, 49lying about looking and 9 admitting to looking.
Videos of those denying looking were then shown to 152 parents of children aged 8 to 16, 80 of whom had children who had taken part in the test. The researchers found that the parents were less able to spot lies told by their own children than by other people’s children.
32. What does the underlined word “impair” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Show. B. Develop. C. Damage. D. Recognize.
33. Why is it difficult for parents to find their children lying to them according to paragraph 2
A. They aren’t prepared for the lies. B. They pretend not to discover the lies.
C. Their children know how to lie to them. D. Their children are very good at hiding their lies.
34. What does Dr. Evans find out about children’s lying
A. What makes parents lose trust in their children. B. What causes children to tell lies to their parents.
C. What affects children’s relations with their parents. D. What makes parents fail to detect their children’s lies.
35. What can we know from Dr. Evans’ study
A. Parents tend to protect their own children.
B. Lying is a part of children’s development.
C. Children aged 8 to 16 are likely to tell lies.
D. Parents can judge lies told by children of others more easily.

第四节 (满分25分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was little, I left Germany with my family and moved to the Netherlands. For months, my main company had been my mother or other adults. I could only speak German and hardly spoke a word of Dutch. I only met one girl who also spoke German in the neighborhood grocery store.
I was shy, so when I set off for my first day of a new school, I was really terrified. I cried leaving our apartment. I entered a classroom where there were about 20 children who looked extremely busy. Suddenly, I saw a girl with dark hair. I couldn’t see her face, as her back was turned towards me. In that moment, she turned around and looked at me. In a flash, we recognized each other. It was the girl from the corner grocery store! We instantly rushed into each other’s arms like long separated sisters, sentences in German flowing between us. I smiled and my anxiety disappeared immediately.
“My name is Annelies. You can call me Anne,” she said smilingly. As two little girls who didn’t know Dutch, we were excited to find each other.
I was attracted by Anne immediately. Apart from being outgoing and kind, Anne was confident enough to get close to others though they spoke Dutch. Soon I also began to play with other children.
When we went home after school, Anne and I were glad to discover we were also next-door neighbors. Anne’s apartment was a floor above mine. After that, every day she came to knock at my door and then we walked to school together.
Soon we became inseparable friends and I knew more about her. She liked seeing films and her father even rented a film projector(放映机)on her birthday every year, which made her very happy. But she still felt she had difficulty integrating(融入) fully into the lives of local people.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150 左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
With the desire to fit in, Anne and I began to learn new Dutch words and phrases.
Here came Anne’s birthday again and in our hands were many invitations.

Occupying a special place in adventure lore, mountain huts have been offering a roof over travelers’ heads since the dawn of exploration. Here are some of the most impressive ones to inspire your next expedition for when the time is right to conquer mountains again.
Grands Mulets hut, France
Located on the way to the Mont Blanc Mountain range,the Grands Mulets refuge offers shows topping views of the Alps. Set at an altitude of 3,051 meters, the hut was built in 1853 to serve mountaineers exploring the alpine peaks.It has 68 beds and is open from the end of March to the end of July.
Brandenburger Haus, Austria
Standing in the very heart of the largest glacier system in the Eastern Alps, Brandenburger Haus is an almost unreal sight. Visitors should be aware that it’s in the expert-only league of mountain huts as the journey to reach it goes through complicated glacier routes.
Refugio Emilio Frey, Argentina
Fairly easy to reach on a day hike, Refugio Emilio Frey is a treasure of Argentina’s superb Nahuel Huapi National Park. It’s home to one of the sharp Patagonian peaks. Overnight stays are possible as the hut accommodates up 40 guests and provides everything a mountain traveler needs.
