E-waste is one of the fastest-growing waste streams on our planet. At this company, we’re all about making e-waste recycling simple, safe, and sustainable. This Earth Day, we’re offering free quotes and guidance to individuals and businesses looking to responsibly get rid of their electronics or have them safely reused for environmental benefits.
What Qualifies as E-Waste?
E-waste includes more than just your old smartphone. It covers a wide range of electronics, such as desktop computers, laptops, tablets, TVs, monitors, chargers, and DVD players.
But not all e-waste is the same. Some of it is considered poisonous e-waste, especially items that contain heavy metals like lead. Examples of such e-waste are: TVs, batteries, fluorescent (荧光的) lamps and certain circuit boards.
These need to be handled with even more attention and expert knowledge. That’s why it’s important to recycle with licensed e-waste facilities.
What Sets Us Apart?
· We’re licensed and committed to environmentally responsible practices.
· We handle both personal and commercial e-waste.
· We offer IT equipment disposal (处理) services, including secure data destruction and assurances of data security.
· We help educate our community about proper e-waste handling and the importance of recycling programs and renewable energy.
Use Earth Day as a reminder to take action. Check your shelves, clean out your storage, and make the choice responsibly. It only takes one step to start a cleaner future — and we are ready to help you take that step.
1. What does the company aim to do on Earth Day?
A. Simplify e-waste recycling. B. Reduce the use of electronics.
C. Urge people to protect Earth. D. Promote proper e-waste handling.
2. Which of the following items should be handled with the most care?
A. A charger. B. A DVD. C. A TV. D. A player.
3. What is the advantage of the company?
A. Providing cheap renewable energy. B. Ensuring users’ information safety.
C. Specializing in commercial e-waste. D. Being the only licensed organization.
B
As a child development psychologist, I’ve spent countless hours observing childhood friendships. What strikes me most is that it’s a cinch for young children to form connections. It needs no emotional scoring systems that often exist in adult relationships. They don’t keep track of who called last, who initiated the play date, or who shared their snacks more often; they just get along and click.
This observation leads me to a truth about adult friendships: the most lasting bonds are built on joy and acceptance rather than careful scorekeeping. Unlike the playground friendships I observe daily, many adult relationships suffer from what I call “deep scoring” — the habit of keeping detailed mental records of friendship deals. We track who reached out last, who canceled plans, or who shared more information.
When a six-year-old’s friend forgets to save them a swing, children might feel momentarily disappointed, but they rarely carry that hurt forward into the next interaction. They focus on current joy rather than past slights. As adults, we can learn from this approach. When we catch ourselves mentally working out friendship debts, we can stop and ask: “What would a child do in this situation?” Often, the answer involves letting go of the score and focusing on the genuine affection we feel for our friend here and now.
The next time you find yourself mentally calculating friendship debts, remember the simple wisdom of children approaching the playground, who simply offer their genuine selves and remain open about connections. This approach doesn’t guarantee that every friendship will last forever, but it ensures that the ones that can last will be built on the strongest possible foundation: care without any conditions. Our adult friendships deserve the same pure intention and open-heartedness. When we stop keep ing score and start keeping faith in the fundamental goodness of human connections, we create space for friendships that truly last forever.
4. What does the underlined part “a cinch” mean in paragraph 1?
A. Effortless. B. Emotionless. C. Unexpected. D. Unusual.
5. What does the author find about adult friendships?
A. They are built on mutual care. B. They involve constant calculation.
C. They are hard to last for long. D. They go less deeper than children’s.
6. What should adults learn from children’s approach?
A. Never hurting friends. B. Interacting more actively.
C. Living in the moment. D. Forgetting conflict quickly.
7. What suggestion does the author make in the last paragraph?
A. Trusting friends unconditionally. B. Establishing lifelong friendships.
C. Understanding others’ intentions. D. Treating friends in a sincere way.
C
A burned lunch at Audubon Zoo in New Orleans did more than simply disappoint a hungry worker. As soon as smoke spread to their area, Australian sleepy lizards (蜥蜴) all of a sudden stopped whatever they were doing — heads up and bodies tense — and started pacing the edges of their fenced area and digging the ground, eager to leave. However, other species in the identical room didn’t respond. The incident hit scientists: maybe the lizards had evolved to recognize a flame’s chemical signals.
To test this, Chris Jolly, a conservation biologist at Macquarie University, and his co-workers exposed 10 adult female sleepy lizards to smoke, steam and recordings of wildfire sounds separately. The lizards were in a panic when there was smoke but were unaffected by steam or wildfire sounds. The findings suggest these lizards rely on smell rather than hearing to detect fire at long range, unlike some other lizards, frogs and bats.
This is consistent with Australian sleepy lizards’ known use of smell to recognize partners, with whom they form pair-bonds, and to find food and detect predators (捕食者). “Smoke also tends to travel ahead of the flames and cuts through background noise,” Jolly says, “making smell a more reliable early warning than sound in open, windy, noisy environments.”
Many of the lizards tested had likely never experienced wildfire; their site hadn’t burned in more than 50 years, yet they still reacted strongly when they sensed smoke. That could represent natural adaptation to fire which the lizards are born with. Juli Pausas, a scientist at the Spanish National Research Council, says the findings contribute to the emerging recognition that certain animal behaviors may symbolize fire adaptations, a topic that has been underexplored until recently. As fires intensify with local weather change, these capabilities might imply the distinction between survival and loss of life.
8. How did the lizards respond to the smoke at Audubon Zoo?
A. They attempted to escape. B. They stopped moving about.
C. They reminded other species. D. They sought food anxiously.
9. Why did the researchers expose the lizards to wildfire sounds?
A. To prove their capability to detect wildfire. B. To compare different signals of the flames.
C. To check the sense related to their response. D. To show powerful impacts of natural sounds.
10. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 3?
A. How the lizards use smell in daily life. B. Why smoke goes faster than the flames.
C. How the lizards form reliable pair-bonds. D. Why the lizards rely on smell to sense fire.
11. What is indicated about the lizards’ reaction to smoke in the last paragraph?
A. It prevents lizard deaths. B. It inspires practical applications.
C. It might be an inborn ability. D. It has been rarely explored before.
D
Shared tables, a trend enjoying popularity in the 1980s, offer a different social way to digital natives in the West. Where diners once were unwilling to sit with strangers, Gen Z, individuals born between 1997 and 2012, are pulling their chairs a little closer. According to new data, 90% of Gen Z diners say they enjoy communal (共享的) tables, compared to just 60% of boomers, people born during a period when many babies were born, highlighting a generational revival (复兴) of dining together.
Communal dining has long divided the room — in more than one way. For example, a report from the online reservation service company Resy found 63% of respondents feel that communal tables are great for meeting new people, with half saying they’ve had interesting conversations with someone they otherwise wouldn’t have spoken to while dining with strangers. Meanwhile, the format has been a joke in an American comedy, where characters put up with awkward small talk over shared seating.
Michael Della Penna, chief strategy officer at the digital advertising research firm InMarket, said that, for members of a notably anxious generation, the communal environment can be comforting, “because you don’t have to be the focus or the initiator of the group conversation.” It’s especially comforting for those who may feel like they don’t have the social skills. “It’s a safe step towards connecting and being social where you don’t have the heavy weight of carrying the entire conversation,” Della Penna said.
“Communal dining has a history of thousands of years, but its popularity has been unstable, with waves of enthusiasm following periods of little interaction,” said Donnie Madia, a Chicago-based restaurateur.“Back in 2008, after the financial crisis, which forced people to reduce engagement with others, people wanted to be together, and to be in smaller spaces; once they started to come back to the restaurants, they wanted that festive feeling of dining together.”
Gen Z grew up online, but they’re intentionally seeking real-world connections, and restaurants have become that gathering space again. For them, sharing a table isn’t just practical seating.
12. What phenomenon is stressed in paragraph 1?
A. Digital natives lack connections. B. The shared dining trend is back.
C. Shared tables change social ways. D. Gen Z have similar eating habits.
13. What do the examples show about communal dining in paragraph 2?
A. It leads to disagreement. B. It brings unexpected results.
C. It is often misunderstood. D. It is more and more popular.
14. Why might communal dining appeal to anxious people?
A. It provides many topics to discuss. B. It allows them to improve social skills.
C. It enables them to be the talk’s focus. D. It offers a less pressured way to socialize.
15. What do Donnie Madia’s words imply?
A. Communal dining caught on after 2008. B. Social disconnection boosts communal dining.
C. Crises discourage people from exploring. D. Restaurants need to create the festive feeling.

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。
If you spend any time gardening, you probably understand what I mean when I say it feels good — despite the lifting, sweating and muscle pain involved. Yes, acts like digging in the dirt are good for my body. ____16____ Even the smell of the soil makes me happy.
____17____ There’s an entire field called horticultural therapy (园艺疗法) using plant-based and garden-based activities to support people with treatment needs. Research suggests 20 – 30 minutes of gardening a few times a week can reduce stress and lift one’s mood, and that the more regularly one gardens, the greater the benefits are.
Gardening requires more than just staying outdoors. ____18____ Such active engagement over time adds a unique layer of meaning and satisfaction that passive outdoor time does not. In addition, gardening has been shown to ease symptoms of anxiety and depression, and to develop a sense of calm, purpose and achievement.
A study backs this up. The researchers provide one group of participants with an instructional gardening class, seeds, starter plants and a community gardening plot. ____19____ The gardening group report stronger social connections, lower stress levels and about a 7% increase in fiber intake. They also report a 42-minute weekly increase in physical activity, which the non-gardening group don’t report.
“Physically, gardening improves strength, flexibility and balance. Mentally, it develops problem-solving skills and creativity,” says Sarah Thompson, a professionally registered horticultural therapist, adding that it’s a highly adaptable activity. “____20____ And its benefits are accessible to everyone.” Deep down, we gardeners have always believed this. Now, we have the science to prove it.
A. Almost all gardeners have this understanding.
B. As it turns out, there are scientific reasons for this.
C. Gardening can be suited to any space, ability or age.
D. They also have a group without gardening for two years.
E. Most of the participants enjoy the pleasure of being outdoors.
F. We should always tend plants with enthusiasm and a willing heart.
G. However, apart from the physical benefits, they help lift my spirits.

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 winter wind blew strongly outside. I stood in front of our small house, feeling very cold. I was wearing an old jacket with several small holes in the sleeves. For almost an hour, I had been thinking hard about what I could give Mom for her birthday. However, I still had no good idea. I let out a long sigh. Even if I found a perfect gift, I had no money to pay for it.
Five years ago, my dad passed away. Since then, Mom had taken care of me all by herself. She worked long hours in a supermarket every day. She was always tired when she came back home, but she never complained. The money she made was just enough for our food and daily life. Every time I saw Mom’s tired but gentle smile, my heart was filled with thanks. I really wanted to give her a special gift to show my love.
I walked slowly to the street with my head down. I looked through the windows of different shops. There were beautiful cards, lovely cups and soft scarves. All of them looked nice, but I knew I could not afford any of them. My eyes became wet as I kept walking. I felt so sad and helpless. It was getting dark, and I had to turn back home.
On the way back, I passed Mrs. Green’s house. She was an old kind lady living next to us. I saw her picking up fallen leaves in the yard alone. She looked weak and it was difficult for her to finish the work. I walked up to her and asked if I could help her. She agreed.
I worked hard to clean up the leaves and tidy the yard. Although I felt a little tired, I kept working until everything was clean and tidy. When I finished, Mrs. Green took out ten dollars from her pocket and gave it to me. She said it was a little reward for my help. At first, I did not want to take it, but she insisted. Finally, I thanked her and took the money carefully.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;

When we catch ourselves mentally working out friendship debts, we can stop and ask: “What would a child do in this situation?” Often, the answer involves letting go of the score and focusing on the genuine affection we feel for our friend here and now.
The next time you find yourself mentally calculating friendship debts, remember the simple wisdom of children approaching the playground, who simply offer their genuine selves and remain open about connections. This approach doesn’t guarantee that every friendship will last forever, but it ensures that the ones that can last will be built on the strongest possible foundation: care without any conditions. Our adult friendships deserve the same pure intention and open-heartedness. When we stop keep ing score and start keeping faith in the fundamental goodness of human connections, we create space for friendships that truly last forever.

【解析】
【导语】主要对比孩童与成人的交友方式,指出成人友谊常互相算计衡量,倡导成年人学习孩童真诚纯粹、不计较得失的交友智慧。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段中的“What strikes me most is that it’s a cinch for young children to form connections. It needs no emotional scoring systems that often exist in adult relationships. They don’t keep track of who called last, who initiated the play date, or who shared their snacks more often; they just get along and click.( 最触动我的是,小孩子建立情谊是a cinch。孩童之间不需要成年人社交里常见的情感衡量标尺。他们不会计较谁先主动联系、谁发起玩耍邀约、谁更常分享零食;只是自然而然相处,投缘相伴。)”可知,孩童建立友谊无需刻意费心、不用算计,由此可推断,a cinch意为“容易、毫不费力”,和选项Effortless表意相符。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“This observation leads me to a truth about adult friendships: the most lasting bonds are built on joy and acceptance rather than careful scorekeeping. Unlike the playground friendships I observe daily, many adult relationships suffer from what I call “deep scoring” — the habit of keeping detailed mental records of friendship deals. (这一观察让我悟出成人友谊的真相:最长久的情谊建立在愉悦与包容之上,而非刻意计较得失。与我日常观察到的孩童友谊不同,许多成人关系深陷我所说的深度计分,习惯在心里仔细记录人情往来,计较谁先主动联系、谁临时取消计划、谁倾诉分享更多。)”可知,成年人的友谊常常不断衡量、计较人情得失,存在持续的算计。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“When a six-year-old’s friend forgets to save them a swing, children might feel momentarily disappointed, but they rarely carry that hurt forward into the next interaction. They focus on current joy rather than past slights. As adults, we can learn from this approach.(当六岁孩子的朋友忘了为自己留秋千时,孩子或许会一时失落,但很少把这份委屈带到下一次相处中。他们专注当下的快乐,而非过往的不快。成年人可以借鉴这种处事方式。)”可知,成年人应向孩子学习,活在当下,专注当下相处的美好。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The next time you find yourself mentally calculating friendship debts, remember the simple wisdom of children approaching the playground, who simply offer their genuine selves and remain open about connections. This approach doesn’t guarantee that every friendship will last forever, but it ensures that the ones that can last will be built on the strongest possible foundation: care without any conditions. Our adult friendships deserve the same pure intention and open-heartedness.(下次当你在心里暗自计较人情上的情谊亏欠时,请记住孩子们走向游乐场时那份朴素的智慧:只需展露真实的自我,以开放的心态去建立人际联结。这种方式无法保证每一段友谊都能长久维系,却能让那些可以长久走下去的情谊,建立在最坚实的基础之上:无条件的关心与在乎。成年人之间的友谊,同样值得拥有这份纯粹的初心与坦诚豁达的本心。)”可知,作者含蓄建议人们以真诚纯粹、敞开心扉的态度对待朋友与友谊。

A burned lunch at Audubon Zoo in New Orleans did more than simply disappoint a hungry worker. As soon as smoke spread to their area, Australian sleepy lizards (蜥蜴) all of a sudden stopped whatever they were doing — heads up and bodies tense — and started pacing the edges of their fenced area and digging the ground, eager to leave. However, other species in the identical room didn’t respond. The incident hit scientists: maybe the lizards had evolved to recognize a flame’s chemical signals.
To test this, Chris Jolly, a conservation biologist at Macquarie University, and his co-workers exposed 10 adult female sleepy lizards to smoke, steam and recordings of wildfire sounds separately. The lizards were in a panic when there was smoke but were unaffected by steam or wildfire sounds. The findings suggest these lizards rely on smell rather than hearing to detect fire at long range, unlike some other lizards, frogs and bats.
This is consistent with Australian sleepy lizards’ known use of smell to recognize partners, with whom they form pair-bonds, and to find food and detect predators (捕食者). “Smoke also tends to travel ahead of the flames and cuts through background noise,” Jolly says, “making smell a more reliable early warning than sound in open, windy, noisy environments.”
Many of the lizards tested had likely never experienced wildfire; their site hadn’t burned in more than 50 years, yet they still reacted strongly when they sensed smoke. That could represent natural adaptation to fire which the lizards are born with. Juli Pausas, a scientist at the Spanish National Research Council, says the findings contribute to the emerging recognition that certain animal behaviors may symbolize fire adaptations, a topic that has been underexplored until recently. As fires intensify with local weather change, these capabilities might imply the distinction between survival and loss of life.
8. How did the lizards respond to the smoke at Audubon Zoo?
A. They attempted to escape. B. They stopped moving about.
C. They reminded other species. D. They sought food anxiously.
9. Why did the researchers expose the lizards to wildfire sounds?
A. To prove their capability to detect wildfire. B. To compare different signals of the flames.
C. To check the sense related to their response. D. To show powerful impacts of natural sounds.
10. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 3?
A. How the lizards use smell in daily life. B. Why smoke goes faster than the flames.
C. How the lizards form reliable pair-bonds. D. Why the lizards rely on smell to sense fire.
11. What is indicated about the lizards’ reaction to smoke in the last paragraph?
A. It prevents lizard deaths. B. It inspires practical applications.
C. It might be an inborn ability. D. It has been rarely explored before.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】主要介绍澳大利亚瞌睡蜥蜴能通过嗅觉感知烟雾预警火情,并阐释该能力的原理、习性关联与天生进化适应意义。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“As soon as smoke spread to their area, Australian sleepy lizards (蜥蜴) all of a sudden stopped whatever they were doing — heads up and bodies tense — and started pacing the edges of their fenced area and digging the ground, eager to leave. (当烟雾扩散到活动区域时,澳大利亚瞌睡蜥蜴立刻停下所有动作,抬头紧绷身体,沿着围栏来回踱步、刨挖地面,急于离开此地。)”可知,蜥蜴闻到烟雾后试图逃离现场。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“To test this, Chris Jolly, a conservation biologist at Macquarie University, and his co-workers exposed 10 adult female sleepy lizards to smoke, steam and recordings of wildfire sounds separately. (为验证这一猜想,研究人员将十只成年雌性瞌睡蜥蜴分别置于烟雾、蒸汽和野火声音环境中进行实验。)”可知,研究人员播放野火声音,是为了排查听觉作用,检验触发蜥蜴反应的相关感官。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“This is consistent with Australian sleepy lizards’ known use of smell to recognize partners, with whom they form pair-bonds, and to find food and detect predators (捕食者). “Smoke also tends to travel ahead of the flames and cuts through background noise,” Jolly says, “making smell a more reliable early warning than sound in open, windy, noisy environments.”(这与蜥蜴依靠嗅觉识别伴侣、觅食和察觉天敌的习性相符,且烟雾先于火焰扩散、不受环境噪音干扰,让嗅觉成为更可靠的预警方式。)”可知,第三段主要说明蜥蜴依靠嗅觉感知火情的原因。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Many of the lizards tested had likely never experienced wildfire; their site hadn’t burned in more than 50 years, yet they still reacted strongly when they sensed smoke. That could represent natural adaptation to fire which the lizards are born with.(许多受试蜥蜴从未经历过野火,栖息地五十多年未起火,但它们对烟雾仍反应强烈,这或许是蜥蜴与生俱来的对火灾的自然适应能力。)”可知,蜥蜴对烟雾的反应可能是一种天生的本能。

Shared tables, a trend enjoying popularity in the 1980s, offer a different social way to digital natives in the West. Where diners once were unwilling to sit with strangers, Gen Z, individuals born between 1997 and 2012, are pulling their chairs a little closer. According to new data, 90% of Gen Z diners say they enjoy communal (共享的) tables, compared to just 60% of boomers, people born during a period when many babies were born, highlighting a generational revival (复兴) of dining together.
Communal dining has long divided the room — in more than one way. For example, a report from the online reservation service company Resy found 63% of respondents feel that communal tables are great for meeting new people, with half saying they’ve had interesting conversations with someone they otherwise wouldn’t have spoken to while dining with strangers. Meanwhile, the format has been a joke in an American comedy, where characters put up with awkward small talk over shared seating.
Michael Della Penna, chief strategy officer at the digital advertising research firm InMarket, said that, for members of a notably anxious generation, the communal environment can be comforting, “because you don’t have to be the focus or the initiator of the group conversation.” It’s especially comforting for those who may feel like they don’t have the social skills. “It’s a safe step towards connecting and being social where you don’t have the heavy weight of carrying the entire conversation,” Della Penna said.
“Communal dining has a history of thousands of years, but its popularity has been unstable, with waves of enthusiasm following periods of little interaction,” said Donnie Madia, a Chicago-based restaurateur.“Back in 2008, after the financial crisis, which forced people to reduce engagement with others, people wanted to be together, and to be in smaller spaces; once they started to come back to the restaurants, they wanted that festive feeling of dining together.”
Gen Z grew up online, but they’re intentionally seeking real-world connections, and restaurants have become that gathering space again. For them, sharing a table isn’t just practical seating.
12. What phenomenon is stressed in paragraph 1?
A. Digital natives lack connections. B. The shared dining trend is back.
C. Shared tables change social ways. D. Gen Z have similar eating habits.
13. What do the examples show about communal dining in paragraph 2?
A. It leads to disagreement. B. It brings unexpected results.
C. It is often misunderstood. D. It is more and more popular.
14. Why might communal dining appeal to anxious people?
A. It provides many topics to discuss. B. It allows them to improve social skills.
C. It enables them to be the talk’s focus. D. It offers a less pressured way to socialize.
15. What do Donnie Madia’s words imply?
A. Communal dining caught on after 2008. B. Social disconnection boosts communal dining.
C. Crises discourage people from exploring. D. Restaurants need to create the festive feeling.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. B

【导语】主要介绍共享餐桌潮流再度复兴,对比不同代际态度,分析其受年轻人欢迎的原因及历史兴衰变化。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Shared tables, a trend enjoying popularity in the 1980s, offer a different social way to digital natives in the West. Where diners once were unwilling to sit with strangers, Gen Z, individuals born between 1997 and 2012, are pulling their chairs a little closer.(共享餐桌是上世纪80年代流行的一种潮流,为西方数字原生代提供了一种不同的社交方式。以往就餐者不愿和陌生人同坐,而1997至2012年出生的Z世代却愿意拉近座位距离。)”可知,第一段着重强调共享用餐的潮流再度回归。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Communal dining has long divided the room — in more than one way. For example, a report from the online reservation service company Resy found 63% of respondents feel that communal tables are great for meeting new people, with half saying they’ve had interesting conversations with someone they otherwise wouldn’t have spoken to while dining with strangers. Meanwhile, the format has been a joke in an American comedy, where characters put up with awkward small talk over shared seating.(长期以来,共享就餐在多方面都引发了人们的意见分歧。在线预订公司Resy的报告显示63%受访者认为共享餐桌利于结识新人,半数人曾与陌生就餐者进行愉快交谈;而美国喜剧却将这种形式当作笑料,刻画人们忍受共享座位下尴尬闲聊的场景。)”可知,这些事例体现出人们对共享就餐持有不同看法、存在意见分歧。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Michael Della Penna, chief strategy officer at the digital advertising research firm InMarket, said that, for members of a notably anxious generation, the communal environment can be comforting, “because you don’t have to be the focus or the initiator of the group conversation.” It’s especially comforting for those who may feel like they don’t have the social skills. “It’s a safe step towards connecting and being social where you don’t have the heavy weight of carrying the entire conversation,” Della Penna said.(数字广告研究公司InMarket的首席战略官迈克尔·德拉·彭纳表示,对于格外容易焦虑的一代人而言,共享就餐环境能让人感到安心,因为不必成为群体谈话的焦点或话题发起者。对于缺乏社交技巧的人来说这尤为友好,这是一种稳妥的社交方式,无需背负主导整场谈话的巨大压力。)”可知,共享就餐为性格焦虑的人提供了压力更小、更轻松的社交方式。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Communal dining has a history of thousands of years, but its popularity has been unstable, with waves of enthusiasm following periods of little interaction,” said Donnie Madia, a Chicago-based restaurateur.“Back in 2008, after the financial crisis, which forced people to reduce engagement with others, people wanted to be together, and to be in smaller spaces.(芝加哥餐厅经营者唐尼·马迪亚称,共享就餐已有数千年历史,流行程度起伏不定,人际交往冷淡过后便会迎来热潮。2008年金融危机迫使人们减少线下交往后,人们反而渴望相聚共处,愿意待在狭小的空间里。)”可知,人际疏离、社交减少的状况,反而会推动共享就餐方式的兴起。

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。
If you spend any time gardening, you probably understand what I mean when I say it feels good — despite the lifting, sweating and muscle pain involved. Yes, acts like digging in the dirt are good for my body. ____16____ Even the smell of the soil makes me happy.
____17____ There’s an entire field called horticultural therapy (园艺疗法) using plant-based and garden-based activities to support people with treatment needs. Research suggests 20 – 30 minutes of gardening a few times a week can reduce stress and lift one’s mood, and that the more regularly one gardens, the greater the benefits are.
Gardening requires more than just staying outdoors. ____18____ Such active engagement over time adds a unique layer of meaning and satisfaction that passive outdoor time does not. In addition, gardening has been shown to ease symptoms of anxiety and depression, and to develop a sense of calm, purpose and achievement.
A study backs this up. The researchers provide one group of participants with an instructional gardening class, seeds, starter plants and a community gardening plot. ____19____ The gardening group report stronger social connections, lower stress levels and about a 7% increase in fiber intake. They also report a 42-minute weekly increase in physical activity, which the non-gardening group don’t report.
“Physically, gardening improves strength, flexibility and balance. Mentally, it develops problem-solving skills and creativity,” says Sarah Thompson, a professionally registered horticultural therapist, adding that it’s a highly adaptable activity. “____20____ And its benefits are accessible to everyone.” Deep down, we gardeners have always believed this. Now, we have the science to prove it.
A. Almost all gardeners have this understanding.
B. As it turns out, there are scientific reasons for this.
C. Gardening can be suited to any space, ability or age.
D. They also have a group without gardening for two years.
E. Most of the participants enjoy the pleasure of being outdoors.
F. We should always tend plants with enthusiasm and a willing heart.

【导语】主要介绍在成都举办的亚洲多国专家文化遗产保护会议,介绍会议主办方、金沙遗址与三星堆遗址考古价值、文物共性,以及国际专家参访并为遗址申遗发展提出建设性建议。
【36题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:在成都举办的一场会议汇聚了中国及亚洲其他国家的专家,通过演讲与案例分享创新性探索文化遗产保护与可持续发展的多种方法。approach为可数名词,空前无限定词,所以此处使用名词复数形式approaches表示多种方法,作宾语。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:立足国际视野与本土实践,本次活动设有三场演讲专场,涵盖跨文化比较研究等相关议题。此处为非谓语动词作后置定语,speech sessions与cover之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词covering。
【38题详解】
考查冠词。句意:这场聚焦文化遗产保护的盛会由金沙遗址博物馆、三星堆博物馆等多方联合主办。此处特指前文提到的在成都举办的这场会议,表特指用定冠词the。故填the。
【39题详解】
考查动词语态。句意:金沙遗址博物馆所在的金沙遗址占地约五平方公里。固定短语be located in意为“位于”,此处陈述客观事实用一般现在时,主语the Jinsha Site Museum为第三人称单数,所以谓语动词为is located。
【40题详解】
考查介词。句意:考古学家称赞2001年发现的该遗址是四川最重要的考古发现之一。固定搭配praise...as...,意为“称赞……为……”,所以此处为介词as。故填as。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:研究证实,始建于两千八百年至四千八百年前的三星堆遗址,是古蜀王国中心古城的遗迹。此处为非谓语动词作后置定语,the Sanxingdui Ruins与establish之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词established。
【42题详解】
考查连词。句意:考古学家对三星堆和金沙遗址出土的金器、青铜器、玉器、石器、象牙及陶器等文物进行了分析,发现它们在器物种类、造型样式和加工工艺上存在诸多相似之处。前后两个分句为顺承并列关系,用连词and连接。
【43题详解】
考查主语从句。句意:会议开始前,外国教授们参观了各大博物馆,旅途中最令他们印象深刻的是部分藏品独具特色的展出方式。此处引导主语从句,从句缺少主语,指代事物内容,所以用连接代词what。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:专家们凭借自身专业学识,为遗址未来发展提出了建设性意见。此处修饰名词suggestions,需用形容词作定语,construct的形容词形式constructive意为“建设性的”。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意:金沙遗址博物馆工作人员表示,这些建议将助力博物馆申请列入联合国教科文组织世界遗产名录。定冠词the后接名词作宾语,include的名词形式为inclusion意为“(被)包含”。

【答案】参考范文:
Dear Chris,
I’m writing to share my experience in the “Labor Practice Week” organized by our school last week. We went to a local farm and participated in planting vegetables, which was an unforgettable experience.
Under the farmers’ guidance, I learned to dig holes, sow seeds and water them carefully. At first, I was clumsy, but I kept practicing patiently. After a whole day’s hard work, I was exhausted but full of joy.
This experience taught me the value of labor and helped me realize how hard it is to get food. I hope you can have a similar experience someday.
Yours,
Li Hua

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 winter wind blew strongly outside. I stood in front of our small house, feeling very cold. I was wearing an old jacket with several small holes in the sleeves. For almost an hour, I had been thinking hard about what I could give Mom for her birthday. However, I still had no good idea. I let out a long sigh. Even if I found a perfect gift, I had no money to pay for it.
Five years ago, my dad passed away. Since then, Mom had taken care of me all by herself. She worked long hours in a supermarket every day. She was always tired when she came back home, but she never complained. The money she made was just enough for our food and daily life. Every time I saw Mom’s tired but gentle smile, my heart was filled with thanks. I really wanted to give her a special gift to show my love.
I walked slowly to the street with my head down. I looked through the windows of different shops. There were beautiful cards, lovely cups and soft scarves. All of them looked nice, but I knew I could not afford any of them. My eyes became wet as I kept walking. I felt so sad and helpless. It was getting dark, and I had to turn back home.
On the way back, I passed Mrs. Green’s house. She was an old kind lady living next to us. I saw her picking up fallen leaves in the yard alone. She looked weak and it was difficult for her to finish the work. I walked up to her and asked if I could help her. She agreed.
I worked hard to clean up the leaves and tidy the yard. Although I felt a little tired, I kept working until everything was clean and tidy. When I finished, Mrs. Green took out ten dollars from her pocket and gave it to me. She said it was a little reward for my help. At first, I did not want to take it, but she insisted. Finally, I thanked her and took the money carefully.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
At once, I ran to a shop nearby.

On my way home, I held the gloves close to my chest.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文:
At once, I ran to a shop nearby. Holding the money in my hand, I asked the shopkeeper if I could buy a pair of warm gloves for my mom as a birthday gift. The shopkeeper looked at me and smiled kindly. He asked me to wait for a moment. Soon, he came back with a pair of soft pink gloves. “These are just ten dollars,” he said gently. I could not believe my ears. I gave him the money and took the gloves carefully, with great joy.
On my way home, I held the gloves close to my chest. I kept thinking about Mom’s happy face. I thanked the kind shopkeeper and Mrs. Green again and again in my mind. Their kindness made me feel that the world was full of love. When I handed the gloves to Mom, she looked very surprised and happy. She put them on at once and hugged me tightly. At that moment, I truly understood that love is not measured by how much money you spend, but by how much care and warmth you give.
