Until she was ten years old. Debby Tewa lived with her grandmother in a three-room stone house in a remote area of the Hopi Reservation in Arizona. Like other families around them, Debby and her grandmother never had running water or a telephone, or electrical power. “I didn’t crave electricity then,” Debby recalls. “Because I didn’t know that I didn’t have it.”
Debby was in fourth grade and living with her parents off the reservation when she first had electricity at home. “I liked being able to study at night and watch TV,” she remembers. She started thinking about how she could help bring electricity to places like her grandmother’s community.
After graduating from Sherman Indian High School in California, Debby returned to the Hopi Reservation, where she took a job helping other young people find summer work. Debby’s big opportunity came when The Hopi Foundation, created by Hopi people to improve life on the reservation, started an organization called Native Sun. The idea was to bring energy to remote Hopi communities in a way that would fit in with their traditional way of life. Solar energy seemed like a perfect solution.
To spread the word about solar energy, The Hopi Foundation recruited (招募) several members who could speak the Hopi language. One of them was Debby Tewa. Part of Debby’s job was to teach people about solar energy. She set up demonstration solar power systems in three villages. In the next few years, Debby installed (安装) more than 300 solar panels on Hopi houses, and people started calling her “Solar Debby.”
For people like Debby’s aunt and her aunt’s 90-year-old neighbor, who had never had electricity before, solar power has made a life-changing difference. They no longer have to use a kerosene (煤油) lamp. But best of all, they know that they have control over their own clectricity. “When you get your own solar clectrical system, it’s yours.” Debby explains. “You’re not dependent on a power company. With solar energy, we can be independent.”
24.What does the underlined word “crave” in paragraph 1 mean?
A.Find out. B.Long for. C.Stand up for. D.Make use of.
25.What can we learn about Debby from the first two paragraphs?
A.She could take others’ hardships into consideration.
B.She was grateful for her childhood.
C.She demonstrated intelligence early in life.
D.She complained about a lack of life conveniences.
26.What was the purpose of Native Sun?
A.To keep Hopi traditions alive. B.To beautify Hopi communities.
C.To provide the Hopi with electricity. D.To offer job opportunities to the Hopi.
27.What does Debby’s explanation about solar power intend to show?
A.Its target populations. B.Its possible applications.
C.Its operations by the Hopi. D.Its significance to the Hopi.

Researchers find the benefits of free time depend on our beliefs about it. A new Rutgers-led study finds that contentment depends, at least in part, on believing that leisure activities are not a waste of time.
According to the study, thinking of leisure as wasteful prevents us from enjoying our leisure pursuits — especially purely pleasure activities such as hanging out with friends, watching TV and just relaxing. More goal-driven leisure activities, like exercise and meditation (冥想), tend to feel productive and so are still enjoyed whether or not people see value in their leisure.
In one part of the study, the researchers asked 302 people to recall what they did for Halloween, how much they enjoyed the holiday and their attitudes toward leisure in general. Those who believed leisure was wasteful enjoyed their Halloween less, especially when they engaged in activities like going to a party compared to other activities that might be fun but might also fulfill (履行) responsibilities, like trick or treating with their kids.
In another part of the study, participants read news articles meant to convince the reader that leisure is wasteful, unproductive or productive. Next they watched the “Best Funny Cat Videos 2019”and were asked how much they enjoyed it. Those who believed that leisure was wasteful or unproductive didn’t enjoy watching the video s as much as those who thought leisure time was productive and important.
The results show that those who do not enjoy pleasure-driven activities are more depressed, anxious and stressed. The findings suggest happiness may be driven not only by whether people engage in leisure, but whether they find value in what they are doing.
“Attitudes can be difficult to change, so it may not be possible to shift beliefs about leisure overnight,” said lead author Gabriela Tonietto. “For those who think of leisure as wasteful, focusing on the productive ways that individual leisure activities can serve their long-term goals can help.”
28.Which statement illustrates the participants enjoying their Halloweenless?
A.They are enthusiastic party-goers. B.They enjoy relaxing with their family.
C.They consider trick or treating boring. D.They put much value on responsibilities.
29.Why were the participants asked to read the news articles?
A.To shape their attitude to leisure. B.To inform them of the cat videos.
C.To measure their happiness level. D.To examine their productivity.
30.What aspect of leisure is worth attention according to Tonietto?
A.Its accessibility. B.its various types.
C.Its potential contributions. D.Its flexibility.
31.What is the best title for the text?
A.Pursuing Happiness Intentionally Might Backfire
B.Happiness Comes from Real Satisfaction of Life
C.Believing Leisure Is Wasteful Reduces Happiness
D.More Leisure Doesn’t Necessarily Bring Contentment
D
Schumpeter is only an amateur stargazer(天文爱好者). His equipment is no fancier than a pair of eyes and a place in the countryside, away from London’s light pollution. That is enough to make out Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn-and, occasionally, the International Space Station crossing the sky. In the past few years a new spectacle has appeared in the form of the Starlink satellites. Launched by SpaceX, they look like nothing else in the heavens, floating like a train of white dots in tight formation.
SpaceX is a remarkable firm founded to further Mr Musk’s dream of colonizing Mars. Its rockets cost half as much as its rivals’ do, thanks in part to their ability to land their first stages for reuse rather than dumping them in the sea in line with standard industry practice.
SpaceX’s rocket business alone does not justify this rich valuation. The market for launches is small and stagnant (不景气的). This is where Starlink comes in. Those satellites are the lead of a planned constellation1(发射计划)of over1, 000, designed to beam (传输)the Internet to every corner of the globe.
Satellite broadband is not a new idea. But existing options are expensive and slow. Starlink’s cheap, mass-produced, low-flying satellites would, SpaceX claims, offer a service comparable to earthly broadband at competitive prices.
Starlink’s chief competitor is OneWeb, with 74 satellites in orbit and hundreds more planned. It, too, went bust in March, after failing to persuade SonMasayoshi, a Japanese billionaire, to invest more cash. But it has new sponsors. On July 3rd Boris Johnson, Britain’s prime minister, announced that his government had stumped up S500m for a 45% stake in OneWeb, and a golden share giving it control over its future. Bharti Global, an Indian telecoms firm, also put in S500m.
OneWeb may need more cash if it is to complete its constellation. British taxpayers may never see a financial return on their investment. But if OneWeb keeps Mr Musk on his toes even for a little while, their loss may turn out to be global consumers’ gain. Stranger things have happened in space.
32.What is the function of Paragraph 1?
A.To show respect for amateur stargazers.
B.To draw readers’ attention to light pollution.
C.To introduce the topic of Starlink satellites.
D.To give an example of observing stars.
33.What is the reason for the emergence of Starlink?
A.The rocket launch market is small and depressed.
B.SpaceX’s rockets can be recycled in the first stage of launch.
C.The rocket cost of SpaceX is only half that of its competitors.
D.Starlink can provide services comparable to earthly broadband at competitive prices.
34.How did OneWeb maintain its economy?
A.It built 74 in-orbit satellites and planned hundreds of them.
B.It persuaded SonMasayoshi to invest more money.
C.Boris Johnson’s government and an Indian company invested a total of S1 billion.
D.The continuous competition between OneWeb and SpaceX brought it benefits.
35.From the last paragraph, we can infer that
A.OneWeb’s financial losses may turn out to be global consumers’ gain
B.the battle between OneWeb and SpaceX may benefit global consumers
C.Mr Musk may step on global consumers’ toes when he achieves success
D.OneWeb no longer needs financial support from British taxpayers

Kala has deep ties to her Hawaiian roots. Her ancestors navigated(航行)the oceans for centuries using their knowledge of the stars, the sun, the currents and the wind. 36 .
It’s not that she navigates without technology. Rather, she uses the natural technology around her. It’s called Wayfinding, and it was taught to her by her father. 37 . He also taught her how to use them to hold the course. Over 200 stars have specific names and purposes when they are Wayfinding. They have to look at each of the stars and determine if they are rising or setting.
During the day, Kala uses the sun until it hits a certain height. 38 , she looks for certain species of land birds and stationary clouds that indicate there is land below. When Kala sails, she feels “very connected to my past and where I came from. I feel very connected to the crew and the canoe. We’re a family.”
The voyage from California to Hawaii required Kala to spend long hours studying the day and the night skies. 39 . But it also had its moments of awe. For Kala, the beauty is in tying together the past and the present to enjoy the moment. So, when she is not sailing, she teaches Wayfinding skills to school-aged children in hopes of preserving the skills her ancestors relied on.
40 . But if we take the time to look up, to see the stars and the sun, the way the clouds move, the miracle of life beneath and above us, we will discover something deep inside us, something that will always lead to happiness.
A.Today, she does the same
B.When she gets closer to land
C.It was demanding, physical work
D.When she got the hang of sailing on the sea
E.It was a traditional technique that uses nature
F.He taught her how to read the stars and the waves
G.Nowadays, it’s easy to get lost in modern screens and miss the nature around us

My parents came to the US from India in the 1960s, along with other immigrants from India. Back then, there were few Indians anywhere around the US. My father came to Kansas,where he would get his Ph.D.Six months later, my mother came with the three of us kids — my sister, my brother, and me. We were just six,five and three years old then.
It was the very first winter when we were in Kansas. It was so cold,but we didn’t have heavy coats or warm clothes. We didn’t have a concept of how cold it really could be in the Midwest, and there was a new surprise every day. We didn’t have a car or anything like that, and my dad didn’t have a US driver’s license. But anyway, my father was studying for his Ph.D., and he would walk up and down a big hill to and from the campus on a regular basis.
Since I was three years old, I didn’t go to school, but my sister and brother were in school. My father had to walk down the big hill to take them to school every day and then walk back up the hill to go to university.After about three weeks of living like this, a woman called Valerie,whose son John was in the same class as my brother, started noticing them. On a very cold snowy morning,when they went to school as usual,Valerie passed by. She pulled up and said, “I see you on the way every day. Don’t you feel cold without coats?”My father responded,“We didn’t expect the weather would be so cold in Kansas.”Valerie said,“Maybe I can take your daughter and son to school. Would you like a ride?”
Paragraph 1:
Hearing that, my dad nodded with great joy.

Later, Valerie and her family became so dear to my family.

26.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The idea was to bring energy to remote Hopi communities in a way that would fit in with their traditional way of life. Solar energy seemed like a perfect solution.(这个想法是以一种符合他们传统生活方式的方式为偏远的Hopi社区带来能源。太阳能似乎是一个完美的解决方案)”可知,Native Sun成立的目的是为了向Hopi社区提供电力。故选C。
27.推理判断题。根据最后一段的““When you get your own solar clectrical system, it’s yours.” Debby explains. “You’re not dependent on a power company. With solar energy, we can be independent.”(黛比解释说:“当你有了自己的太阳能发电系统,它就是你的了。”“你不依赖电力公司。有了太阳能,我们就可以独立了。”)”可推知,Debby 在强调太阳能对于Hopi社区的重要意义,即它给予他们能源自主权和独立性。故选D。

28.细节理解题。根据第三段“Those who believed leisure was wasteful enjoyed their Halloween less, especially when they engaged in activities like going to a party compared to other activities that might be fun but might also fulfill (履行) responsibilities, like trick or treating with their kids.(那些认为休闲是浪费的人不太享受他们的万圣节,特别是当他们参加聚会等活动时,而不是其他可能有趣但也可能履行责任的活动,比如和孩子们一起捣蛋)”可知,他们很重视责任说明了参与者享受他们的无万圣节。故选D。
29.细节理解题。根据第四段“In another part of the study, participants read news articles meant to convince the reader that leisure is wasteful, unproductive or productive. Next they watched the “Best Funny Cat Videos 2019”and were asked how much they enjoyed it. Those who believed that leisure was wasteful or unproductive didn’t enjoy watching the video s as much as those who thought leisure time was productive and important.(在研究的另一部分,参与者阅读新闻文章,旨在说服读者休闲是浪费、无益或有益的。接下来,他们观看了“2019年最佳搞笑猫咪视频”,并被问及他们有多喜欢。那些认为休闲是浪费或无益的人不像那些认为休闲时间是有益的和重要的人那样喜欢看视频)”可知,要求参与者阅读新闻文章是为了塑造他们对休闲的态度。故选A。
30.细节理解题。根据最后一段““Attitudes can be difficult to change, so it may not be possible to shift beliefs about leisure overnight,” said lead author Gabriela Tonietto. “For those who think of leisure as wasteful, focusing on the productive ways that individual leisure activities can serve their long-term goals can help.”(该研究的主要作者加布里埃拉·托尼托说:“人们的态度很难改变,所以不可能一夜之间改变人们对休闲的看法。对于那些认为休闲是浪费的人来说,关注个人休闲活动能够为他们的长期目标服务的有效方式可能会有所帮助。”)”可知,托尼托认为休闲的潜在贡献值得关注。故选C。
31.主旨大意题。根据第一段“Researchers find the benefits of free time depend on our beliefs about it. A new Rutgers-led study finds that contentment depends, at least in part, on believing that leisure activities are not a waste of time.(研究人员发现,空闲时间的好处取决于我们对它的看法。罗格斯大学领导的一项新研究发现,满足感至少在一定程度上取决于人们是否相信休闲活动不是浪费时间)”结合文章主要说明了研究表明认为休闲是浪费的想法会阻碍我们享受休闲活动,解释了研究开展的经过以及建议。可知,C选项“认为休闲是浪费会减少幸福感”最符合文章标题。故选C。
32.C 33.A 34.C 35.B
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Starlink satellites出现的原因和发展。并指出拥有Starlink satellites业务的两家公司SpaceX和OneWeb的竞争有益于全球用户。
32.推理判断题。根据第一段的“In the past few years a new spectacle has appeared in the form of the Starlink satellites. Launched by SpaceX, they look like nothing else in the heavens, floating like a train of white dots in tight formation.(在过去的几年里,星链卫星出现了一个新的奇观。它们由SpaceX公司发射,在天空中看起来与众不同,像一列紧密排列的白点火车一样漂浮着)”结合下文对Starlink satellites的介绍推知,第一段的目的是引出话题。故选C。
33.细节理解题。根据第三段的“The market for launches is small and stagnant (不景气的). This is where Starlink comes in. (发射市场规模小且停滞不前。这就是Starlink出现的原因)”可知,Starlink的出现是因为火箭发射市场小且不景气。故选A。
34.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“But it has new sponsors. On July 3rd Boris Johnson, Britain’s prime minister, announced that his government had stumped up S500m for a 45% stake in OneWeb, and a golden share giving it control over its future. Bharti Global, an Indian telecoms firm, also put in S500m.(但它有了新的赞助商。7月3日,英国首相Boris Johnson宣布,他的政府已出资5亿英镑收购OneWeb 45%的股份,以及一份黄金股,使其能够控制该公司的未来。印度电信公司Bharti Global也投入了5亿卢比)”可知,OneWeb通过Boris Johnson政府和印度电信公司投入的10美元来维持它的经济。故选C。
35.推理判断题。根据最后一段“OneWeb may need more cash if it is to complete its constellation. British taxpayers may never see a financial return on their investment. But if OneWeb keeps Mr Musk on his toes even for a little while, their loss may turn out to be global consumers’ gain. (OneWeb若要完成其星座,可能需要更多资金。英国纳税人的投资可能永远不会有经济回报。但如果OneWeb让马斯克先生保持警惕,哪怕是一段时间,他们的损失可能会变成全球消费者的收益)”推知,OneWeb和SpaceX之间的竞争会让全球的消费者收益。故选B。

36.上文“Her ancestors navigated the oceans for centuries using their knowledge of the stars, the sun, the currents and the wind.(她的祖先利用他们对恒星、太阳、洋流和风的了解,在海洋中航行了几个世纪)”以及下文“It’s not that she navigates without technology. Rather, she uses the natural technology around her. (这并不是说她在没有技术的情况下导航。相反,她使用了周围的自然技术)”可知,不仅卡拉的祖先利用恒星、太阳等自然技术进行航行,卡拉也使用了自然技术航行,说明A项“今天, 她做着同样的事情”,起到了承上启下的作用,符合句意。故选A项。

39.上文“The voyage from California to Hawaii required Kala to spend long hours studying the day and the night skies. (从加利福尼亚到夏威夷的航行需要卡拉花很长时间研究白天和夜晚的天空)”暗示出利用天象判断航向需要花很长时间, 推断出这是一个苦差事, C项“这是一项繁重的体力劳动”中的it指代上句内容,是对上文内容的承接,同时和下文“But it also had its moments of awe. (但它也有令人惊叹的时刻)”构成转折关系。故选C项。
40.下文“But if we take the time to look up, to see the stars and the sun, the way the clouds move, the miracle of life beneath and above us, we will discover something deep inside us, something that will always lead to happiness.(但是,如果我们花时间抬头看看,看看星星和太阳,看看云的移动方式,看看我们身下和身上的生命奇迹,我们就会发现我们内心深处的一些东西,一些永远会带来幸福的东西)”说明我们应该花时间观察自然这样才能发现一些带来幸福的东西,由but可知,空格处和下文构成转折关系,空格处的内容应该是对这些好处的忽略。G项“如今, 我们很容易迷失在现代化的屏幕中, 错过我们周围的大自然”与下文语义转折, 衔接合理。故选G项。
41.D 42.B 43.A 44.C 45.A 46.D 47.B 48.D 49.A 50.B 51.C 52.A 53.C 54.C 55.D

After expressing their thanks to Valerie, they greeted John with a smile.
