Most recently,Zhang Chaofan has been honored with a national ethical role model at the Great
Hall of the People in Beijing.
Over the past six years,Zhang has donated 1.35 million yuan and raised 5.2 million yuan from
the public to help more than 400 people with health problems-including teachers with severe cancer,
disabled children and autistic (children in poor families-learn traditional Chinese culture.
She has also made more than 700 public welfare speeches at universities and in poor mountain
areas,teaching people how to gain self-esteem,confidence,self-reliance and self-improvement.
The young girl was born without a left forearm in Changchun,Jilin Province,but her constant
drive to become stronger has inspired many people.
In 2015,Zhang rejected an offer of postgraduate study from a famous university and set up a
calligraphy and painting school in Changchun.When she found that some parents were unable to
afford their children's education fees,she made the lessons free and began providing 300,000 yuan
annually to help them through her foundation.
"I think it's important for teenagers to receive quality education because they are the future of
the country,"she said."I will make great efforts to help them get equal opportunities to pursue their
dreams and inspire them to do their best."
In early 2020,her school stopped all courses because of the pandemic,but she didn't stop her
public welfare activities.She raised materials and donations worth more than 8 million yuan.Then she
sent masks,protective suits,and daily necessities to medical workers.
"Women in the new era should have the courage to create value and also have a sense of social
responsibility,"she said."It is my great honor to be elected as a role model.This will become a
driving force for me to forge ahead and pass on the seeds of public welfare through even greater
efforts..”

The greatest threat to our planet is the belief that someone else will save it.In fact,no single one
can.We ourselves must walk the right path and make a difference.We should start by doing what's
necessary,then doing what's possible and will certainly achieve what may seem impossible!
Some environmentalists desire the pleasure in the pathless woods and the happiness in the lonely
shore.This is a true account of an organization,called Nurture Nature,which offers a lot of
opportunities and avenues to enrich not just one's surroundings but the one himself.
To many,it may seem that it brings about just another forum to save the planet,and it does.
However,there is something bigger that it brings to you,an opportunity to redefine yourself,and a
wish to make sure that you believe that you are indeed part of it.Being identified by the UN
Environmental Programme,it lives up to the dreams we have dreamed.
Nurture Nature is an organization not only to educate the citizens of our nation and worldwide
but also to spread awareness about the various atrocities (of humans towards our planet.Staff
at Nurture Nature deal with the aim of making each and every person aware of their specific duties
and responsibilities towards the planet and doing the needful before it's too late.
By organizing campaigns and spreading our reach through social media,staff at Nurture Nature
surely do their best to fulfill the aim.This initiative has received an incredible response from funders
worldwide and funds for the campaign and other tasks were collected.The funds which were put to
good use were more than sufficient.
28.What should we do to protect the earth according to the text?
A.Call for discussions.
B.Ignore the threats.
C.Get everything ready.
D.Start from ourselves.
29.What will Nurture Nature bring to the participants?
A.A thrilling experience.
B.A beautiful dream.
C.A chance to know themselves.
D.A sense of belonging.

There is a best point to how much money it takes to make a person happy,and that amount varies
worldwide,according to research from Purdue University.
That might be surprising as what we see on TV and what advertisers tell us we need would
indicate that there is no ceiling when it comes to how much money is needed for happiness,but we
now see there are some thresholds ()People debated at what point money no longer changes
your level of well-being.We found that the ideal income point is 95,000 for life and 60,000 to
75,000 for emotional well-being.Again,this amount is for individuals and would likely be higher
for families.
Emotional well-being,or feelings,is about one's day-to-day emotions,such as feeling happy,
excited,or sad and angry.
And,there was large difference across world regions,with satiation (occurring later in
wealthier regions for life satisfaction.This could be because evaluations tend to be more influenced by
the standards by which individuals compare themselves to other people.
The study also found once the threshold was reached,further increases in income tended to be
associated with reduced life satisfaction and a lower level of well-being.This may be because money is
important for meeting basic needs,purchasing conveniences,and maybe even loan repayments,but to a
point.After the optimal point of needs is met,people may be driven by desires such as pursuing more
material gains and engaging in social comparison,which could,ironically,lower well-being.
At this point they are asking themselves,"Overall,how am I doing?"and "How do I compare to
other people?"The small decline puts one's level of well-being closer to individuals who make slightly
lower incomes,perhaps due to the costs that come with the highest incomes.These findings speak to a
broader issue of money and happiness across cultures.Money is only a part of what really makes us
happy,and we're learning more about the limits of money.
32.What may greatly affect a person's feelings of life satisfaction?
A.Attitudes to life.
B.Real life needs.
C.Comparison to others.
D.Life in wealthier regions.
33.Which of the following matches the opinion in the study?
A.Money is not everything.
B.Too much money causes trouble.
C.Not everyone likes lots of money.
D.All people need enough money for life
34.What does the underlined part "this point"in the last paragraph refer to?
A.The proper amount of money.
B.Further increases in income.
C.Pursuing more material gains.
D.Engaging in social comparison.
35.Which of the following may have a good mood?
A.The poor.
B.The rich.
C.Ordinary people.
D.Those who love money.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Don't be too concerned about money,because all it will do is distract you from achieving
happiness.And the irony(具有讽刺意昧的事)is that people think they will be happy when they have
money.36.If you are happy and you have money,you can use it for happiness.If you are unhappy
and you have money,you will use that money for more unhappiness.Money is simply a neutral force.
Don't misunderstand me.37 I am not against anything.Money is a means.Your money will
enhance your pattern,whether it is good or bad.
38.They are ready,at any moment,to change their pattern and to change their ways,if more
money is available somewhere else.
Once the money is there,then suddenly you are no longer yourself;you are ready to change.
This is the way of the worldly man.Remember,I don't call a person worldly because he or she
has money.39 This applies to people with no money as well-they may simply be poor.Just
being poor does not equal to being spiritual;and just being rich does not equal to being a materialist.
The materialistic pattern of life is one in which money predominates(占主导地位)over everything.
The non-materialistic life is one in which money is just a means:happiness predominates;joy
predominates;your own individuality predominates.40 and you are not distracted.
Then suddenly you will see your life has a meaningful quality to it.
A.I am not against money
B.However,money has nothing to do with happiness
C.So they attach great importance to money
D.You know who you are and where you are going
E.Money brings great joy to people who pursue it
F.I call them worldly if they change their motives for money
G.But people keep looking for money as if money is going to bring happiness

第二节
语篇解读这是一篇议论文。文章中作者主要讨论了自己对金钱的看法,作者认为不
应该太在意金钱,因为金钱只会让你无法获得幸福。金钱只是一种手段,人们不该为
之迷失自我。
参考答案61
36.B根据上文And the irony is that people think they will be happy when they have
money.可知具有讽刺意味的事情是,人们认为有钱就会幸福。根据下文Money is
simply a neutral force.可知金钱只是一种中性的力量。由此可知.设空处应表示金
钱与幸福没有关系。故B项符合语境。
37.A根据下文I am not against anything..可知“我”不反对任何事情。所以,作者并
不是在反对金钱。故A项“我并不反对金钱”符合语境,故选A。
38.G根据下文They are ready,at any moment,to change their pattern and to change
their ways,if mote money is available somewhere else.可知如果在其他地方有更多
的钱,他们会随时准备改变自己的模式,改变自己的方式。由此可知,人们一直在
寻找金钱,并且会为了金钱而改变自己。故G项“但是人们一直在寻找金钱,好像
金钱能带来幸福似的”符合语境,故选G。
39.F根据上文Remember,Idon't call a person worldly because he or she has money.
可知记住,“我”称一个人世俗并不是因为他或她有钱。由此可知,本句说明作者称
别人世俗的真正原因是,这些人为了金钱改变他们的动机。故F项“如果他们为了
金钱而改变动机,我称他们世俗”符合语境,故选F。
40.D根据上文The non-materialistic life is one in which money is just a means:
happiness predominates;joy predominates;your own individuality predominates.
知在非物质享乐主义的生活中,金钱只是一种手段:幸福占主导地位;快乐占主导
地位;你自己的个性占主导地位。下文说到你才不会被分心,怎么才不会被分心
呢?你要知道你自己是谁,要去哪里。故D项“你知道你是谁,你要去哪里”符合语
境,故选D。

第二节
参考范文
Paul's knees became weak.He sat down in a chair and put his head in his hands.
The dream was ended.He had to go back to the yellow-papered bedroom,the smell of
cooked cabbage,and the daily ride to work on the crowded streetcars.Paul had a taxi
take him out of the city and into the country.The taxi left him near some railroad
tracks.A train whistle broke into Paul's thoughts.He watched as the train grew bigger
and bigger.As it came closer,Paul's body shook.His lips wore a frightened smile.
The train was drawing nearer and nearer to Paul.When the right moment came,
he suddenly realized his great mistake.The blue of the ocean and the yellow of the
desert flashed through his brain.He had not seen them yet!There was so much he had
not seen!Paul jumped off the rails!He decided to face his mistake bravely and change
his life attitude completely.

(一)
语篇解读本文是说明文。文章主要讲述了万圣节的由来和发展。
l.C根据下文“They believed that the night before the New Year(October31)wasa
time when the living and the dead came together.”可推知,空白处描述的是新年所
在的日子。选项C符合题意。故选C。
2.D根据本段中“More than a thousand years ago the Christian church named
November 1 All Saints Day (also called All Hallows).""The night before All
Hallows was called Hallows Eve..”再结合上文提到“Like many other holidays,
Halloween has developed and changed throughout history.”可推知,空白处描述的
是万圣节的发展变化。选项D符合题意。故选D。
3.G F"So on that night people wore costumes that looked like ghosts or other evil
creatures..”表示一种结果。由此可知,空白处要描述为什么人们穿像鬼或其他邪恶
生物的服装。选项G和下文形成了因果关系,符合题意。故选G。

语篇解读本文为记叙文,主题语境是人与社会,主题语境内容是良好的人际关系与
社会交往。主人公保罗开发网站让世界各地的人们可以交换明信片。
1.G主旨句。设空处位于段尾,通过代词指代缩小选项范围,通过相同信息在文中与
选项中呼应锁定答案。第一段主要介绍主人公保罗,所以设空处重,点关注C项和G
项,这两项中的代词he指代保罗。第一句中的loves to open his mailbox and find a
brightly colored picture of..,与Gs项中的the excitement of getting a hand-written
note from someone far away对应,说明保罗喜欢收到不同的明信片。
2.A过渡句。设空处位于段中,关注前后句所传递出的不同含义,理解主人公的情
感。设空处前提出不是所有人都和保罗一样有这个爱好,后句提到他通过网络找其
他志同道合的人,说明保罗对“不是所有人都和他有同样的爱好”这件事是能接受的
(that's totally fine),而接受后要做的事情就是通过其他渠道找有相同爱好的人,设
空处在情感上起到了过渡的作用。
3.E细节句。设空处位于段中,关注段落主旨并通过数字信息锁定答案。本段主要
展现了与保罗爱好一样的人越来越多,主要通过具体数字来说明,设空处前有数宇
信息的体现,E项中出现的数字信息也与本段主旨对应。
4.F细节句。设空处位于段中,通过段落主旨和关键词复现锁定答案。本段的关键
词是language,说明本段的主旨围绕语言展开,设空处前出现Chinese,与F项中的
Chinese对应,复查后发现除了F项与language有关外,其他选项均不对应。
5.B细节句。关注代词。设空处前提到很多中国人接触英语不多,设空处后则告诉
大家,很多人通过在互换明信片时使用英语,提高了英语水平,希望让大家知道这是
一个让自己更多地接触英语、练习英语的机会。B项中的That指代的就是“许多中
国人接触英语不多”这个情况,B项中practice后的it指代的是English。

语篇解读本文是一篇记叙文,主题语境为人与社会。文章介绍了The Slow Food
Movement发起的原因、过程以及此项运动的三个目标。
l.G本句为段首句,起承上启下的作用。This event指的是上文中提到的事件,
wasn't the only thing暗示后文还有其他原因:Carl的一次餐馆就餐经历,因食物不
好吃,让他深感忧虑,因此他想要让人们关注食物的问题,也就是这个运动兴起的另
一个原因。
2.B本句是对后面三段的总结和概括。此句后面的段首句分别提及good food、food
should be clean、the price of food should be fair,正好与此句的内容相呼应。
3.E前面一句提到“Good food is seasonable.好的食物都是应季的”,E项中at the
best time of the year是对seasonable的解释说明。
4.CC项中的they指代上文的the chemicals,说明化学物质对环境有害,长此以往会
引起人类的健康问题。
5.A从后文中“All people should be able to purchase healthy food.所有人都应该能够
购买健康食品”可知,此处是与价格有关的,A项“食物不应该太贵”符合文意。

语篇解读本文是说明文。文章解释了人们参加志愿者工作的原因。
1.D根据上一段可知,空处应承接上文,进一步说明当任务有危险时,人们更难理解
为什么有人要参加志愿者工作,D项中的“This”指代上文的“trying to understand
why people volunteer'”。
2.G根据上文“Whenever there have been wars,there have been those who made the
decision to join the battle..”可知,空处应该讲述人们在战争中做志愿者的原因。G
项中的“these individuals'”指代上文“those who made the decision to join the battle'”。
3.A空处为段落主旨句。根据下文“While some view these as..,so there will be a
future.”可知,本段主要说明人们从事志愿者工作是为了更好的未来。
4.F根据下文“We see them helping total strangers who become trapped when
earthquakes or hurricanes happen,”可知,空处提到了发生灾难的情况,F项中的
“disasters'”与上文“earthquakes or hurricanes”对应。故选F。
