They are the Necessary Tasks Bottle, the Voluntary Tasks Bottle and the Happiness Bottle. This idea helps us see how we spend our everyday hours. ②Every day, we spend time filling the Necessary Tasks Bottle. We do important things like making money to live, doing housework to keep our home nice, and paying bills to take care of our money matters. ③Then, we fill another bottle with Voluntary Tasks. These are things we choose to do for family or other people, even if we don’t like them. For example, cooking meals for the family, and washing clothes for family members. ④But we often forget about the third bottle—the Happiness Bottle. This is the bottle we fill with things that make us happy. Is your Happiness Bottle sometimes empty at the end of the day? Because we’re busy with necessary and voluntary tasks, time goes by fast, and before we know it, it’s time for bed. ⑤This is why we should try to fill our Happiness Bottle every day. I fill mine by going to dance classes. They always make me feel good. I made friends while dancing. ⑥The big problem for us is to make sure we don’t let a day go by without filling this important bottle. We need to plan for it. ⑦Think about how you spend your time. Are you doing enough things to be happy? Or are the other tasks using up all your time? At the end of the day, try your best to fill your Happiness Bottle. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 31.

C 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章将日常时间比喻为三个“瓶子”(必要任务瓶、自愿任务瓶、幸福瓶)，先分别解释每个瓶子的含义，再强调人们常忽视“幸福瓶”，呼吁大家每天主动规划时间，填充“幸福瓶”，让生活更平衡、快乐。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Every day, we spend time filling the Necessary Tasks Bottle. We do important things like making money to live...”可知，我们花时间填充“必要任务瓶”，做像赚钱以维持生计这类重要的事。故选B。 【32题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段“These are things we choose to do for family or other people, even if we don’t like them.”可知，这些是我们选择为家人/他人做的事，即便不喜欢，也就是说，这些事情是我们主动选择做的；据此可以推断，画线单词“Voluntary”意为“主动选择做的”，相当于“Done by choice”。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“I fill mine by going to dance classes.”可知，作者通过上舞蹈课填充自己的幸福瓶。故选C。 【34题详解】 篇章结构题。综合全文可知，第一段，提出“时间三瓶理论”；第二段、三段、四段分别介绍了三个“瓶子”的具体内涵；第五段、第六段与第四段是并列关系，继续介绍了要填满幸福瓶的原因及面临的挑战；第七段进行总结；因此，选项C结构图符合题意。故选C。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。综合全文，尤其是根据最后一段“At the end of the day, try your best to fill your Happiness Bottle.”可知，本文先介绍三瓶理论，再重点强调人们忽视 “幸福瓶”，最终落脚点是呼吁人们重视“幸福瓶”，主动规划时间填充幸福瓶，从而让自己快乐。故选D。 (C) “Tom? Are you in bed yet?” called Mrs. White. There was no answer. Mrs. White put down her book and went to her 14-year-old son’s room.

No matter what you are, you have to face endless problems. As a son of my family, I find it tiring to stay at home. It’s because my mother will ask me to do this or to do that. When I finish all the chores and have time to listen to my favorite music, I don’t want to talk to her anymore. But at that time, she always asks me to study! As a student at school, I think the school life is too boring. All we have to do is study. We sit in the classroom for a whole day with different kinds of subjects and homework. Tests and exams are the most scary. During the exams, I am always so nervous that I forget how to answer the questions. So I often fail in exams. And my parents are angry with me. In fact, I want to try my best and get better grades. But what should I do? Should I make any resolutions? How can I keep them? Maybe I can start by making a detailed study plan. I can set specific time for each subject to make sure I learn all I need. Also, I should try some ways to relax before exams, like taking deep breaths or relaxing for a short time, to not be so nervous. Besides, I can ask my teachers for help after class. They may give me good ideas on how to study better. If you have any good advice for me, please write to me soon at 59766894321@qq.com. Thank you so much. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 51.

They are the Necessary Tasks Bottle, the Voluntary Tasks Bottle and the Happiness Bottle. This idea helps us see how we spend our everyday hours. ②Every day, we spend time filling the Necessary Tasks Bottle. We do important things like making money to live, doing housework to keep our home nice, and paying bills to take care of our money matters. ③Then, we fill another bottle with Voluntary Tasks. These are things we choose to do for family or other people, even if we don’t like them. For example, cooking meals for the family, and washing clothes for family members. ④But we often forget about the third bottle—the Happiness Bottle. This is the bottle we fill with things that make us happy. Is your Happiness Bottle sometimes empty at the end of the day? Because we’re busy with necessary and voluntary tasks, time goes by fast, and before we know it, it’s time for bed. ⑤This is why we should try to fill our Happiness Bottle every day. I fill mine by going to dance classes. They always make me feel good. I made friends while dancing. ⑥The big problem for us is to make sure we don’t let a day go by without filling this important bottle. We need to plan for it. ⑦Think about how you spend your time. Are you doing enough things to be happy? Or are the other tasks using up all your time? At the end of the day, try your best to fill your Happiness Bottle. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 31.

Are you in bed yet?” called Mrs. White. There was no answer. Mrs. White put down her book and went to her 14-year-old son’s room. Tom was sitting in front of a bright computer screen on which a motorbike was running fast. “Oh, Tom. You’re still playing on that computer game. You must stop now, because it’s half past eleven. If you don’t go to bed soon, you’ll be very tired tomorrow.” said Mrs. White. “But I’ve nearly won the game.” Tom said to Mrs. White. She could see the excitement on his face. She sat down beside him. “You’re always playing on the computer. You spend more time on this machine than on your homework.” Today more and more families have computers. Parents hope computers can help their children improve their study at school. But many of their children use computers to play games and watch videos instead of studying. We often see that computer net bars are crowded with people, especially young boys. They spend a lot of money competing (竞争) with the computerized (用计算机控制) machines. The more they lose, the more they want to win. The result is that they don’t want to work or study. In some countries, even scientists hate computers. They say computers cause millions of people to lose their jobs or cause them a lot of trouble. Computer game addiction (瘾) is a serious problem in social (社会的) life. Something should have to be done to solve the problem. 36. How did Mrs. White feel when she saw her son playing late? A. She felt excited. B. She felt happy. C. She felt worried. D. She felt wonderful. 37. Parents hope computers can ________.

Why do some scientists hate computers? A. They think computers cause millions of people to lose their jobs. B. They think computers cause them a lot of trouble. C. They think it’s a waste of time to use computers. D. Both A and B. (D) 阅读以下材料，根据其内容判断其后各个小题正、误。正确的选A，错误的选B。 To cheer up their neighbors in lockdown (封锁), an English family from Wellington colored every brick (砖) of their home with crayons to make a “rainbow house”. 26-year-old mother Fern Taylor started the work with her daughters, Arabella and Matilda. Her husband, Marco DeFazio, then used a ladder (梯子) to finish the work. “We got the idea when I saw a post online,” said Fern. “They did half the house, but Marco said we couldn’t stop there. He got the ladder out and did the rest.” The family used big sticks of crayons, and it took them about six hours. They started with about 40 sticks. The girls really enjoyed it. Matilda is two. She didn’t quite understand, but she did help a bit. Arabella is four, and she was a good helper. She helped for half an hour. Then the girls sat and played, and watched their mom and dad doing the work. “Many people have stopped by our house and smiled. They have taken photos. And they have really cheered up. It’s so sweet,” she said. “People would slow down when they drive past. We have even seen an ambulance(救护车). They just stopped and said they loved it.” This is one of the many wonderful stories that are coming out of the COVID-19 news. 41. The family colored their house to build a home for their daughters. 42. The family got the idea to color their house from a post online. 43. It took the family about ten hours to color the house. 44 The two girls didn’t help their parents because they were too young. 45. People have been very interested in Fern’s house according to paragraph 4. (E) Nobody likes to do chores, especially kids. How can you make your kids get into a good habit of doing their chores? ____46____ Play some music. ____47____ Play your kids’ favorite music and let them dance around while they are doing their chores. ____48____ It’s a good way when you would like them to clean the house. Let them know that you hide (隐藏) a $5 bill someplace. If they find it, they can keep it. Change often. If your kids keep doing the same chores for months, they may feel bored. Giving them a new task (任务) is fun for both you and the kids. ____49____ ____50____ It’s never fun to be the only one to work and watch everyone else relaxing. If everyone takes part in doing chores, you will finish them faster and have more fun. 阅读短文，把A-E五个句子填人文中空缺处，使短文内容完整。 A. Do it together. B. Make it a treasure hunt (寻宝). C. They will feel more grown-­up when they get a new task. D. Try making chores fun for them. E. Music makes everything seem like a party, doesn’t it? (F) Life is full of difficulties. No matter what you are, you have to face endless problems. As a son of my family, I find it tiring to stay at home. It’s because my mother will ask me to do this or to do that. When I finish all the chores and have time to listen to my favorite music, I don’t want to talk to her anymore. But at that time, she always asks me to study! As a student at school, I think the school life is too boring. All we have to do is study. We sit in the classroom for a whole day with different kinds of subjects and homework. Tests and exams are the most scary. During the exams, I am always so nervous that I forget how to answer the questions. So I often fail in exams. And my parents are angry with me. In fact, I want to try my best and get better grades. But what should I do? Should I make any resolutions? How can I keep them? Maybe I can start by making a detailed study plan. I can set specific time for each subject to make sure I learn all I need. Also, I should try some ways to relax before exams, like taking deep breaths or relaxing for a short time, to not be so nervous. Besides, I can ask my teachers for help after class. They may give me good ideas on how to study better. If you have any good advice for me, please write to me soon at 59766894321@qq.com. Thank you so much. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 51.
