Harvey Sutton spent nearly seven months hiking with his parents walking the thousands of kilometers that make up the complete Appalachian Trail. Harvey, or “little man”, was just 4 years old when he started, and celebrated his 5th birthday on the trail.
The Appalachian Trail, which many people call simply the “AT”, is a 3,530-kilometer hiking trail that runs through the forests of the Appalachian Mountains and passes through 14 states in all. Hiking the Appalachian Trail is tough, and only one out of every four hikers completes all the sections of the trail. The people who hike it must carry everything they need with them, including tents, sleeping bags and other supplies, along with food and water.
Harvey’s parents, Josh and Cassie Sutton, have been hiking with Harvey since he was two years old. They made reasonable arrangements, and especially prepared him for hiking the AT by starting out with lots of shorter walks and hikes. It took Harvey and his family 209 days to complete the entire AT. Every day the family would wake up around 5:30 in the morning. They would have breakfast and pack up their tents and sleeping bags before setting off through the woods. In general, the family hiked about 16 kilometers a day before stopping to set up camp again.
During his days on the AT, Harvey liked to use his imagination. This helped him walk more quickly and have fun while he hiked. He played games with his mom and dad and other hikers, Kart Sakas hiked with the Suttons through seven states. Mr. Sakas said Harvey didn’t seem to get tired. When other hikers were worn out at the end of the day, Harvey was still eager for a game.
Completing the AT taught Harvey and his parents how to work as a team and how to take on challenges together. Harvey has now turned 5 and has started kindergarten. But at some point in the future, he says, “I want to hike the AT again!”
4. What can we learn about hiking on the AT?
A. It takes every hiker 7 months to finish it. B. Hikers like to celebrate their birthdays on it.
C. Only a quarter of hikers finish the whole trail. D. Hikers spend lots of money hiking on it.
5. What made the Suttons’ hiking successful?
A. Using their imagination. B. Being full of energy.
C. Managing time well. D. Having good preparation.
6. What kind of person is Harvey Sutton?
A. Energetic and team-spirited. B. Imaginative and funny.
C. Naughty and tough. D. Considerate and brave.
7. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?
A. The AT—A Challenging Trail B. Why Do People Like Hiking?
C. Hiking—Suttons’ Hobby D. The Little Man’s 209 Hiking Days
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Harvey Sutton从4岁开始就跟着父母徒步,用了209天穿越艰难的阿巴拉契亚山道的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Hiking the Appalachian Tran is tough, and only one out of every four hikers completes all the sections of the trail.(徒步穿越阿巴拉契亚山道非常艰难,每四个登山者中只有一个能完成所有路段)”可知,只有四分之一的徒步旅行者能走完阿巴拉契亚山道全程。故选C项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Harvey’s parents, Josh and Cassie Sutton, have been hiking with Harvey since he was two years old. They made reasonable arrangements, and especially prepared him for hiking the AT by starting out with lots of shorter walks and hikes.(哈维的父母乔什·萨顿和凯西·萨顿从哈维两岁起就一直和他一起徒步旅行。他们做了合理的安排,特别为他的徒步旅行做了准备,从许多较短的步行和徒步开始)”可知,萨顿夫妇的徒步旅行成功的原因是有充分的准备。故选D项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Mr. Sakas said Harvey didn’t seem to get tired. When other hikers were worn out at the end of the day, Harvey was still eager for a game.(萨卡斯先生说哈维似乎不觉得累。当其他徒步旅行者筋疲力尽的时候,哈维仍然渴望一场比赛)”和第五段“Completing the AT taught Harvey and his parents how to work as a team and how to take on challenges together.(完成AT教会了哈维和他的父母如何作为一个团队工作,如何一起面对挑战)”可知,哈维·萨顿是一个精力充沛,富有团队精神的人。故选A项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,文章讲述了Harvey Sutton从4岁开始就跟着父母徒步,用了209天穿越艰难的阿巴拉契亚山道的故事,所以“The Little Man’s 209 Hiking Days(小小男人的209天徒步旅行)”是最佳标题。故选D项。
C
Chinese people love food made of flour, whether it be dumplings, or flatbread. In the hands of sill artisans (手艺人), flour is made into lovely models of people or animals to be enjoyed and played with, which brings a unique kind of pleasure. This art form is called dough figurine (面塑). Among the various at styles of dough figurines, Beijing’s Dough Figurine Lang is a unique folk art, which is filled with the rich history and customs of the capital city. Their delicate and lovely handicrafts are storytellers of old and new Beijing. In 2008, it was included in the list of national intangible cultural heritage.
It was created by Lang Shao’an. Most of the dough figurines are animals and characters from legends, historical stories, and local operas. The finished product is either put at the end of a thin stick, or on a table for display. Some are mostly for children to eat or play with, with simple forms and vivid decorations, while some are delicate pieces of artwork for display only. For this reason, during the making process they are often mixed with additives (添加剂) to prevent them from breaking up, being eaten by insects or growing moldy. Over the course of his long career, Lang Shao’an developed a set of sill fingers with an elegant artistic sense.
Lang Jiaziyu, born in 1995, is the third-generation inheritor of Dough Figurine Lang. When he was 15, he created Beijing Olympic Mascot shaped dough figurines which were highly praised. He looks a bit more fashionable than other folk artisans. In his skilled hands, pop culture icons such as figures based on Marvel comics characters and Chinese mythological figure Nezha with smoky makeup, are resonating with young people.
Like most of the other intangible cultural heritage handicrafts in China, Dough Figurine Lang does not get as much attention from the public. Few young people are willing to take the time to master a skill that does not make money, which has led to a decline in the number of those who are devoted to the handicraft. Good handicrafts need the devotion of artisans from one generation to another.
8. What is special about Dough Figurine Lang?
A. It reflects Beijing’s culture.
B. It is created by many famous artists.
C. It shows people’s lifestyles and beliefs.
D. It is popular with both tourists and the locals.
9. Why do artisans add additives to dough figurines?
A. To make dough figurines taste good.
B. To keep colors brighter and last longer.
C. To help shape dough into various forms.
D. To better preserve the finished products.
10. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. Suggestions for other folk artisans.
B. Different art styles of dough figurines.
C. Lang Jiaziyu’s achievements as an artisan.
D. The popularity of modern dough figurines.
11. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To call on people to master a skill.
B. To appeal to people to value this folk art.
C. To teach people ways to appreciate the handicraft.
D. To persuade people to protect national cultural heritage.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文,主要介绍了中国传统民间艺术之一的面人郎的独特魅力和制作技艺,呼吁人们重视这项传统手工艺。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Among the various at styles of dough figurines, Beijing’s Dough Figurine Lang is a unique folk art, which is filled with the rich history and customs of the capital city. (在众多的面人风格中,北京面人郎是一种独特的民间艺术,它展现了首都丰富的历史和习俗)”可知,北京面人郎这项民间艺术反映了历史悠久的北京文化,故选A项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“during the making process they are often mixed with additives (添加剂) to prevent them from breaking up, being eaten by insects or growing moldy. (在制作过程中它们常常与添加剂混合(添加剂),以防止它们破碎,被虫子吃掉或发霉的增长)”可知,制作面人时加入添加剂,是为了更好地保存它们。故选D项。
【10题详解】
段落大意题。根据第三段的“Lang Jiaziyu, born in 1995, is the third-generation inheritor of Dough Figurine Lang. When he was 15, he created Beijing Olympic Mascot shaped dough figurines which were highly praised. (郎佳子彧,1995年生,面人郎的第三代传人。15岁时,他创作了北京奥运会吉祥物面塑,深受好评)”以及下文内容可知,第三段主要描述Lang Jiaziyu取得的艺术成就,故选C项。
【11题详解】
目的意图题。根据最后一段“Few young people are willing to take the time to master a skill that does not make money, which has led to a decline in the number of those who are devoted to the handicraft. Good handicrafts need the devotion of artisans from one generation to another. (很少有年轻人愿意花时间去掌握一项不赚钱的技能,这导致了从事这门手艺的人数下降。好的手工艺品需要一代又一代工匠的奉献)”可知,全文通过介绍面塑的制作和引人担忧的发展现状,呼吁广大读者重视面塑这项传统民间艺术,故选B项。
D
A small Greek island, Tilos, got the title of a national park and can now make enough energy for itself. Now it has become the world’s first zero-waste island.
The island no longer has any rubbish bins (垃圾箱) and the place where they used to put rubbish (the landfill site) is closed completely. In their place is the Center for Creative Upcycling, where things can either be repaired, reused, or be turned into art supplies or building materials.
They began by setting up an information center so people could learn about how to sort (分类) their waste into three kinds: recyclable (可回收的) materials (paper, plastic, and glass); organic waste (food, fruit, stones and bones); and non-recyclable materials (soiled paper and personal things). Each family was then given its own zero-waste equipment, including boxes for recyclable and non-recyclable waste, a bag for organic waste, and a box for cigarette ends. A smartphone app watched real-time information to show how much had been recycled.
Waste management and recycling measures have been improved, leading to a reduction in plastic and other non-biodegradable (不可生物降解的) waste. This has not only made the island beautiful but also protected its environment and ocean life. As a protected national park, the 63km² island is an important site for falcons, long-legged buzzards and a number of migratory birds that use Tilos as a stopover between Africa and Europe. Any visitors to the island have to take part in the schedule as well. Hotels have special equipment for separating rubbish and tourists can pick up cloth bags for shopping from the Zero Point Information Center.
“In the beginning, it was fun but cost time and energy,” says Fotaras, one of 745 residents (居民). “But we all helped each other until we could do it well. I was amazed how old people welcomed the idea of no rubbish like the good old days— and that gave me hope and courage to do it.”
12. What makes Tilos special according to the text?
A. It has smart rubbish bins. B. It is the smallest island in the world.
C. It has the best energy production system. D. It is the world’s first zero-waste island.
13. What can residents learn from the information center?
A. Their duty to collect waste. B. Methods of grouping their waste.
C. Information on smartphone apps. D. Ways to make zero-waste equipment.
14. What is the benefit of improving waste management on Tilos?
A. It has increased the number of tourists.
B. It has made the residents’ lives easier.
C. It has beautified the island and protected its nature.
D. It has cut the cost in running hotels on the island.
15. What may be the residents’ attitude towards the waste management now?
A. Supportive. B. Uncaring. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A
【解析】

【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段关键句“They began by setting up an information center so people could learn about how to sort (分类) their waste into three kinds: recyclable (可回收的) materials (paper, plastic, and glass); organic waste (food, fruit, stones and bones); and non-recyclable materials (soiled paper and personal things). (他们首先建立了一个信息中心,这样人们就可以学习如何将垃圾分为三类:可回收的材料(纸张、塑料和玻璃);有机垃圾(食物、水果、石头和骨头);以及不可回收材料(脏纸和个人物品)。)”可知,人们就可以从信息中心学习如何将垃圾分为三类,由此可知,居民可以从信息中心学到对垃圾进行分类的方法。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段关键句“Waste management and recycling measures have been improved, leading to a reduction in plastic and other non-biodegradable (不可生物降解的) waste. This has not only made the island beautiful but also protected its environment and ocean life. (废物管理和回收措施得到了改善,从而减少了塑料和其他不可生物降解的垃圾。这不仅使该岛变得美丽,而且保护了其环境和海洋生物。)”可知,改善Tilos的垃圾管理不仅使该岛变得美丽,而且保护了其环境和海洋生物,由此可知,改善Tilos的垃圾管理美化了这个岛,保护了它的自然。故选C项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段内容““In the beginning, it was fun but cost time and energy,” says Fotaras, one of 745 residents (居民). “But we all helped each other until we could do it well. I was amazed how old people welcomed the idea of no rubbish like the good old days— and that gave me hope and courage to do it.”(745名居民中的Fotaras说:“起初,这很有趣,但需要花费时间和精力。”“但我们都互相帮助,直到我们能做得很好。我很惊讶老年人多么欢迎没有垃圾的想法,就像过去的好日子一样——这给了我希望和勇气去做。”)”可知,垃圾管理受到居民的欢迎,让居民觉得很有趣,由此可知,现在居民对垃圾管理的态度可能是支持的。故选A项。

Tips For Staying Active Over the Holidays
The holiday season is here, which for most people, signals a departure from their typical exercise regime (方式,管理制度). Being physically active on a consistent basis can be challenging during this period especially as we travel to see relatives or host friends in our homes. ___16___ Exercise is also known to give you an energy boost and reduce stress levels. Considering these, you can take following tips for making physical activities regular in your lifestyle, through holidays and beyond.
___17___
This is the first rule of any sustainable exercise routine. If your workout feels like another task on your to-do list, it’ll be difficult to stick with. Therefore, be creative in identifying physical activities. Dance. Garden. Take a yoga class online. All of these count as physical activities, and even small amounts add up.
Find breaks to move throughout the day.
___18___ Taking three 10-minute walks during the day — one in the morning, another during your lunch and another after dinner — produces similar benefits to spending 30 minutes at the gym. In other words, taking short movement breaks throughout your day makes for a more active lifestyle and helps meet your goals.
Make it a priority.
Most of us are managing countless responsibilities every day, so it’s vital to consider physical activities an important part of your day.___19___ And, let others know when you’ll be busy exercising and how they can help you find time to do so. Having the support from others is an important element of success.
Be realistic.
Most are overly optimistic when first mapping out a workout plan. In fact, exercise isn’t necessarily at maximal intensity to be effective. Besides, you don’t have to exercise before, during and after work every day in order to hit your goals.___20___
A. Find something you enjoy.
B. Participate in various physical activities.
C. Exercise doesn’t have to take place in a gym.
D. Of course, it is realistic to avoid being injured in sports.
E. Instead, just put more movement into your current daily life.
F. However hard it seems, staying active can help not just your waistline.
G. Put it on your schedule, just as you make an appointment with a doctor.
【答案】16. F 17. A 18. C 19. G 20. E
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了如何在假期持续进行体育锻炼的几种方法。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Being physically active on a consistent basis can be challenging during this period especially as we travel to see relatives or host friends in our homes.”(在这段时间里,坚持锻炼身体是很有挑战性的,尤其是当我们去拜访亲戚或在家里接待朋友的时候。)说明在假期坚持锻炼很难。以及下文“Exercise is also known to give you an energy boost and reduce stress levels.”(众所周知,锻炼能让你精力充沛,降低压力水平。)结合选项F项However hard it seems, staying active can help not just your waistline.(无论多么困难,保持运动不仅仅能帮助你控制腰围。)可知,起到上下文的承上启下作用,上下文语意连贯。故选F项。
【17题详解】
由该题为段落小标题可知,为总结该段内容。该段下文“This is the first rule of any sustainable exercise routine. If your workout feels like another task on your to-do list, it’ll be difficult to stick with. Therefore, be creative in identifying physical activities. Dance. Garden. Take a yoga class online. All of these count as physical activities, and even small amounts add up.”(这是任何可持续锻炼的第一条规则。如果你的锻炼感觉像是你待办事项清单上的另一项任务,那就很难坚持下去了。因此,在确定体育活动时要有创造性。跳舞。花园。在网上上瑜伽课。所有这些都算作体育活动,即使是少量的运动也要加起来。)可知,主要讲的是找到你喜欢的体育锻炼。结合选项A项Find something you enjoy.(找一些你喜欢的事情。)意思一致,为总结该段内容。故选A项。
【18题详解】
根据下文“Taking three 10-minute walks during the day —one in the morning, another during your lunch and another after dinner —produces similar benefits to spending 30 minutes at the gym.”(每天散步三次,每次10分钟——一次在早上,一次在午餐时间,一次在晚餐后——产生的效果和在健身房锻炼30分钟相似。)由此可反推,不一定要在健身房锻炼才会有一样的效果。结合选项C项Exercise doesn’t have to take place in a gym.(锻炼并不一定要在健身房进行。)符合此推断,上下文紧密连接,符合语境。故选C项。
【19题详解】
根据上文“Most of us are managing countless responsibilities every day, so it’s vital to consider physical activities an important part of your day.”(我们大多数人每天都要承担无数的责任,所以把体育活动作为你一天中重要的一部分是至关重要的。)说明把体育活动作为你一天中重要的一部分是至关重要的。结合选项G项Put it on your schedule, just as you make an appointment with a doctor.(把它写进你的日程表,就像你和医生预约一样。)可知,承接上文内容,为对上文内容的语意递进,上下文紧密连接。故选G项。
【20题详解】
根据小标题和前文主要大意,讲的是制定计划时运动量要现实合理,强调的是运动量,且逻辑上是转折关系,呼应上一句“Besides, you don’t have to exercise before, during and after work every day in order to hit your goals.”(此外,你不需要为了达到目标而在每天工作前、工作中和工作后锻炼。)故E选项Instead, just put more movement into your current daily life.(相反,在你现在的日常生活中多做些运动。)符合语境,上下文紧密连接。故选E项。

47. 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。
The Fall and Rise of a Star
I was certain that every student in my high school drama class noticed the paper shaking in my hands as I stood up to try out for the lead role in the play, I wasn’t there by choice, but rather because the teacher required that each of us have a try for a part.
As a “mode!” student, I went along with the request, even though it filled me with fear. I was small for my age, wore secondhand clothes, and cried easily. I desperately wished to remain in my seat and disappear into the background. However, there I was standing, on stage. Reading lines (台词), at least, was something I liked, So, I began to read.
Within moments, the fear was gone. I was reading the part for the main character, “Star,” who possessed an optimistic view on life despite being an orphan (孤儿). I wasn’t an orphan myself, but I felt like one. My father had left us, and my mother worked during the day, attended school at night and spent her weekends buried in homework, It was easy for me to believe that Star’s words were also my own. I finished reading and quickly returned to my seat. When the teacher announced the cast list and called my name, I was lost in my thoughts.
“Patty,” she repeated, “you are Star, Come and collect your lines.”
“This cannot be! How is it possible?” With a racing heart, I approached the teacher to get the pages.
I practiced every day — while walking to school, during lunch breaks, before bedtime, and even on weekends. In the beginning, I was worried about forgetting my lines, but I managed to learn them by heart. My confidence was gradually growing.
Then came the rehearsals (排练). It was during this stage that I began to doubt my confidence once again, I was too nervous to act, I frequently forgot my lines. Then after several failures, I finally reached my breaking point. I ran out towards the stairs and started to cry, “I can’t do it!”

【答案】Suddenly, I felt several gentle hands on my arms. Voices enveloped me, and a warm hand took hold of mine. Through tear-filled eyes, I looked up at concerned faces. The teacher and some of my classmates had followed me. “Please don’t quit,” one of them said firmly. “You can do it. Come on!” All of a sudden, the feeling of being like an orphan disappeared. My heart was filled with warmth. Greatly encouraged and deeply moved, I bravely returned to the stage after drying my tears. The rehearsals eventually went on smoothly, setting the stage for the final performance.
The day finally arrived and the performance received an enthusiastic response. The audience exploded in thunderous cheers and the teacher smiled with great satisfaction, as if saying “Great job!”. Getting off the stage, our classmates hugged each other excitedly, feeling proud of ourselves. I felt like a bird soaring through the sky. From that day on, whenever I encountered discouragement, I persevered. I will never forget that I was once a “fallen star” who managed to rise and shine through my own efforts, with the guidance of an exceptional teacher and the unexpected support of classmates.

Harvey Sutton spent nearly seven months hiking with his parents, walking the thousands of kilometers that make up the complete Appalachian Trail. Harvey, or “little man”, was just 4 years old when he started, and celebrated his 5th birthday on the trail.
The Appalachian Trail, which many people call simply the “AT”, is a 3,530-kilometer hiking trail that runs through the forests of the Appalachian Mountains and passes through 14 states in all. Hiking the Appalachian Trail is tough, and only one out of every four hikers completes all the sections of the trail. The people who hike it must carry everything they need with them, including tents, sleeping bags and other supplies, along with food and water.
Harvey’s parents, Josh and Cassie Sutton, have been hiking with Harvey since he was two years old. They made reasonable arrangements, and especially prepared him for hiking the AT by starting out with lots of shorter walks and hikes. It took Harvey and his family 209 days to complete the entire AT. Every day the family would wake up around 5:30 in the morning. They would have breakfast and pack up their tents and sleeping bags before setting off through the woods. In general, the family hiked about 16 kilometers a day before stopping to set up camp again.
During his days on the AT, Harvey liked to use his imagination. This helped him walk more quickly and have fun while he hiked. He played games with his mom and dad and other hikers, Kart Sakas hiked with the Suttons through seven states. Mr. Sakas said Harvey didn’t seem to get tired. When other hikers were worn out at the end of the day, Harvey was still eager for a game.
Completing the AT taught Harvey and his parents how to work as a team and how to take on challenges together. Harvey has now turned 5 and has started kindergarten. But at some point in the future, he says, “I want to hike the AT again!”
4. What can we learn about hiking on the AT?
A. It takes every hiker 7 months to finish it. B. Hikers like to celebrate their birthdays on it.
C. Only a quarter of hikers finish the whole trail. D. Hikers spend lots of money hiking on it.
5. What made the Suttons’ hiking successful?
A. Using their imagination. B. Being full of energy.
C. Managing time well. D. Having good preparation.
6. What kind of person is Harvey Sutton?
A. Energetic and team-spirited. B. Imaginative and funny.
C. Naughty and tough. D. Considerate and brave.
7. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?
A. The AT—A Challenging Trail B. Why Do People Like Hiking?
C. Hiking—Suttons’ Hobby D. The Little Man’s 209 Hiking Days

Chinese people love food made of flour, whether it be dumplings, or flatbread. In the hands of sill artisans (手艺人), flour is made into lovely models of people or animals to be enjoyed and played with, which brings a unique kind of pleasure. This art form is called dough figurine (面塑). Among the various at styles of dough figurines, Beijing’s Dough Figurine Lang is a unique folk art, which is filled with the rich history and customs of the capital city. Their delicate and lovely handicrafts are storytellers of old and new Beijing. In 2008, it was included in the list of national intangible cultural heritage.
It was created by Lang Shao’an. Most of the dough figurines are animals and characters from legends, historical stories, and local operas. The finished product is either put at the end of a thin stick, or on a table for display. Some are mostly for children to eat or play with, with simple forms and vivid decorations, while some are delicate pieces of artwork for display only. For this reason, during the making process they are often mixed with additives (添加剂) to prevent them from breaking up, being eaten by insects or growing moldy. Over the course of his long career, Lang Shao’an developed a set of sill fingers with an elegant artistic sense.
Lang Jiaziyu, born in 1995, is the third-generation inheritor of Dough Figurine Lang. When he was 15, he created Beijing Olympic Mascot shaped dough figurines which were highly praised. He looks a bit more fashionable than other folk artisans. In his skilled hands, pop culture icons such as figures based on Marvel comics characters and Chinese mythological figure Nezha with smoky makeup, are resonating with young people.
Like most of the other intangible cultural heritage handicrafts in China Dough Figurine Lang does not get as much attention from the public. Few young people are willing to take the time to master a skill that does not make money, which has led to a decline in the number of those who are devoted to the handicraft. Good handicrafts need the devotion of artisans from one generation to another.
8. What is special about Dough Figurine Lang?
A. It reflects Beijing’s culture.
B. It is created by many famous artists.
C. It shows people’s lifestyles and beliefs.
D. It is popular with both tourists and the locals.
9. Why do artisans add additives to dough figurines?
A. To make dough figurines taste good.
B. To keep colors brighter and last longer.
C. To help shape dough into various forms.
D. To better preserve the finished products.
10. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. Suggestions for other folk artisans.
B. Different art styles of dough figurines.
C. Lang Jiaziyu’s achievements as an artisan.
D. The popularity of modern dough figurines.
11. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To call on people to master a skill.
B. To appeal to people to value this folk art.
C. To teach people ways to appreciate the handicraft.
D. To persuade people to protect national cultural heritage.
D
A small Greek island, Tilos, got the title of a national park and can now make enough energy for itself. Now it has become the world’s first zero-waste island.
The island no longer has any rubbish bins (垃圾箱) and the place where they used to put rubbish (the landfill site) is closed completely. In their place is the Center for Creative Upcycling, where things can either be repaired, reused, or be turned into art supplies or building materials.
They began by setting up an information center so people could learn about how to sort (分类) their waste into three kinds: recyclable (可回收的) materials (paper, plastic, and glass); organic waste (food, fruit, stones and bones); and non-recyclable materials (soiled paper and personal things). Each family was then given its own zero-waste equipment, including boxes for recyclable and non-recyclable waste, a bag for organic waste, and a box for cigarette ends. A smartphone app watched real-time information to show how much had been recycled.
Waste management and recycling measures have been improved, leading to a reduction in plastic and other non-biodegradable (不可生物降解的) waste. This has not only made the island beautiful but also protected its environment and ocean life. As a protected national park, the 63km² island is an important site for falcons, long-legged buzzards and a number of migratory birds that use Tilos as a stopover between Africa and Europe. Any visitors to the island have to take part in the schedule as well. Hotels have special equipment for separating rubbish and tourists can pick up cloth bags for shopping from the Zero Point Information Center.
“In the beginning, it was fun but cost time and energy,” says Fotaras, one of 745 residents (居民). “But we all helped each other until we could do it well. I was amazed how old people welcomed the idea of no rubbish like the good old days— and that gave me hope and courage to do it.”
12. What makes Tilos special according to the text?
A. It has smart rubbish bins. B. It is the smallest island in the world.
C. It has the best energy production system. D. It is the world’s first zero-waste island.
13. What can residents learn from the information center?
A. Their duty to collect waste. B. Methods of grouping their waste.
C. Information on smartphone apps. D. Ways to make zero-waste equipment.
14. What is the benefit of improving waste management on Tilos?
A. It has increased the number of tourists.
B. It has made the residents’ lives easier.
C. It has beautified the island and protected its nature.
D. It has cut the cost in running hotels on the island.
15. What may be the residents’ attitude towards the waste management now?
A. Supportive. B. Uncaring. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.

The Fall and Rise of a Star
I was certain that every student in my high school drama class noticed the paper shaking in my hands as I stood up to try out for the lead role in the play, I wasn’t there by choice, but rather because the teacher required that each of us have a try for a part.
As a “mode!” student, I went along with the request, even though it filled me with fear. I was small for my age, wore secondhand clothes, and cried easily. I desperately wished to remain in my seat and disappear into the background. However, there I was standing, on stage. Reading lines (台词), at least, was something I liked, So, I began to read.
Within moments, the fear was gone. I was reading the part for the main character, “Star,” who possessed an optimistic view on life despite being an orphan (孤儿). I wasn’t an orphan myself, but I felt like one. My father had left us, and my mother worked during the day, attended school at night and spent her weekends buried in homework, It was easy for me to believe that Star’s words were also my own. I finished reading and quickly returned to my seat. When the teacher announced the cast list and called my name, I was lost in my thoughts.
“Patty,” she repeated, “you are Star, Come and collect your lines.”
“This cannot be! How is it possible?” With a racing heart, I approached the teacher to get the pages.
I practiced every day — while walking to school, during lunch breaks, before bedtime, and even on weekends. In the beginning, I was worried about forgetting my lines, but I managed to learn them by heart. My confidence was gradually growing.
Then came the rehearsals (排练). It was during this stage that I began to doubt my confidence once again, I was too nervous to act, I frequently forgot my lines. Then after several failures, I finally reached my breaking point. I ran out towards the stairs and started to cry, “I can’t do it!”
