“We started with the desire to volunteer,” Neeti says. “It wasn’t long before we perfected our work and began preparing meals twice a month.” A month into their volunteering work, Anishka and Arav took on most of the cooking and expanded their menu to include soups. “It felt good to know we were helping others,” Anishka says. “Volunteering for a brief amount of time can make a big difference.”
After months of meal preparation for Homeland, Neeti and her children began helping two additional hospice (临终安养院) organizations in the region. As their work expanded, so did their grocery (食品杂货) bill. Anishka and Arav decided to start their own nonprofit (非营利的) organization to raise funds to pay for the food needed to prepare meals. The teens founded Rays of Sunshine to bring a bit of light to families in their time of need.
From working with a lawyer to creating a website, Anishka and Arav did everything. The experiences provided valuable life skills as well as resources to keep their love of helping others going.
Rays of Sunshine held its first fundraising event a few days ago. “We have raised more than $1,500,” Arav says. “The funds will help us continue making meals for families.” The event not only raised funds, but brought awareness of the power of volunteerism at any age and the work of Homeland Hospice.
Neeti, Anishka and Arav, never dreamed their decision to volunteer would create a transformational experience for the family. They simply set out to make someone’s day a bit brighter. “We were so pleased to learn how much the families enjoyed our cooking,” Neeti says. “It has been wonderful for us to work together as a family.”
41.What happened after the family volunteered for a month?
A.They expanded their work by joining two organizations.
B.The kids took charge of almost all the cooking.
C.They started to prepare meals twice a month
D.The kids simplified their menu.

43.What can we infer about Rays of Sunshine’s first fundraising event?
A.It influenced participants in unintended ways.
B.It invited many families to join in meal — making.
C.It spread the message that people of any age can volunteer.
D.It received a positive response from people who had received meals.
44.The voluntary work of Neeti’s two children made them become more ________.
A.responsible B.intelligent C.innovative D.self-critical
45.What is the main idea of the text?

【答案】41.B 42.D 43.C 44.A 45.D
【导语】疫情期间,Neeti 一家为临终安养院人群制作爱心餐。后续扩大帮扶范围,兄妹创立公益组织筹款,开展活动,以志愿行动温暖困境家庭,收获成长。
41.细节理解题。根据第二段“A month into their volunteering work, Anishka and Arav took on most of the cooking and expanded their menu to include soups.(在开始志愿服务工作一个月后,安妮斯卡和阿拉夫承担起了大部分的烹饪工作,并将菜单内容扩展到了包括汤类的食物)”可知,这家人参加为期一个月的志愿服务活动之后,孩子们几乎全权负责了所有的烹饪工作。
42.细节理解题。根据第三段“Anishka and Arav decided to start their own nonprofit (非营利的) organization to raise funds to pay for the food needed to prepare meals.(安妮莎卡和阿拉维决定成立自己的非营利组织,以筹集资金来支付准备饭菜所需的费用)”可知,“阳光之光”组织通过筹集资金来支付餐费。
43.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The event not only raised funds, but brought awareness of the power of volunteerism at any age and the work of Homeland Hospice.(此次活动不仅筹集了善款,还让人们意识到不分年龄皆可践行志愿服务,同时也让大家了解到家园临终关怀院所做的公益事业。)”可知,“阳光行动”的首次筹款活动传达了任何年龄段的人都可以参与志愿服务这一信息。
44.细节理解题。根据第四段“From working with a lawyer to creating a website, Anishka and Arav did everything. The experiences provided valuable life skills as well as resources to keep their love of helping others going.(从与律师合作到创建网站,安妮斯卡和阿拉维共同完成了所有工作。这些经历不仅培养了他们宝贵的生存技能,还为他们保持乐于助人的热情提供了必要的资源)”可知,妮蒂的两个孩子所从事的志愿活动使他们变得更加有责任感了。
45.主旨大意题。根据第一段“When an epidemic hit our region, many of us turned to TV to pass the time. Neeti Goel and her children Anishka, age 15 and Arav, age 17, turned to volunteering to help those in need of a warm meal and a bit of sunshine in their lives. Neeti and her children began preparing casseroles (炖菜) and soups for Homeland Hospice patients and their families.(当疫情席卷我们所在地区时,我们很多人便通过看电视来打发时间。尼蒂·戈尔和她的两个孩子——15岁的阿尼什卡和17岁的阿瓦尔——则投身志愿服务,为那些需要一顿热乎的饭菜以及生活中一点阳光的人们提供帮助。尼蒂和她的孩子们开始为“家园临终关怀”机构的患者及其家属准备炖菜和汤)”结合全文围绕母子三人从做饭帮扶临终安养院,到兄妹创立公益组织送餐、筹款行善展开。可知,这篇文章的主要观点是两名青少年成立了一个组织,为有需要的人提供食物。
C
For a long time, science and culture held that the human sense of smell was underdeveloped, especially compared to animals. This belief was started by 19th-century thinkers and strengthened by a poorly supported study from the 1920s. As a result, smell has long been seen as the least important of the human senses.
However, new research challenges this misunderstanding. Scientists have found that the human nose is far more skilled than once thought. In carefully managed experiments, humans can detect certain smells at levels lower than many animals, including rats, bats, and some monkeys. For example, the special smell added to natural gas to warn us of leaks can be sensed by humans even when only a few drops are mixed into an amount of water as large as an Olympic swimming pool.
The power of smell goes far beyond simple detection; it strongly influences human behavior, often unconsciously. The weak smell of cleaning products, for example, can lead people to clean up. The familiar smell of coffee actually improves focus and mental performance. Stores often use “scent marketing”, understanding that the smell of fresh bread can create a friendly environment, and raise the chance of buying things.
The way the human brain processes smell is also quite different from other senses. While vision provides a detailed map of our surroundings, smell creates a holistic impression, mixed with inputs from other senses and emotions. The awareness of a lemon’s smell, for example, can be made stronger by its bright yellow color. Similarly, feelings of hunger or memories of past sickness can greatly change how we experience food smells, making them either attractive or unpleasant.
This deep link between smell, memory, and emotion explains why smell loss (anosmia) can so severely damage one’s quality of life. As experienced by millions during the COVID-19 pandemic, anosmia can lead to a loss of appetite, as much of flavor comes from smell, and can cause sadness and emotional disconnection. It can make people feel separated from the world and their memories.
Clearly, our sense of smell is not minor or unnecessary. It is a complex and powerful tool that continuously and quietly guides our interactions with the world, protects our well-being, and adds a rich, emotional layer to life.
46.What is the traditional belief about the human sense of smell?
A.Superior to animals’. B.Key to emotional memory.
C.Weak and unimportant. D.Complex but misunderstood.
47.What is implied by the gas leak example?
A.Dogs are unnecessary for gas detection. B.Humans can smell better than believed.
C.Human safety relies mainly on smell. D.The study aimed to compare species.
48.What do we learn about smell from Paragraph 4?
A.It gives environmental analysis. B.It is key to human survival.
C.It combines senses and feelings. D.It works without consciousness.
49.What is a possible result of anosmia?
A.Permanent taste loss. B.Better work concentration.
C.Connection with the world. D.Depression and isolation.
50.What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A.To revalue the importance of smell.
B.To explain the causes of smell loss.
C.To discuss the history of perfume.
D.To describe the process of smelling.
【答案】46.C 47.B 48.C 49.D 50.A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍人类嗅觉长期被认为微弱无用,而新研究证实其灵敏且影响行为、记忆与情绪,极具重要性。
46.细节理解题。根据第一段中的“For a long time, science and culture held that the human sense of smell was underdeveloped, especially compared to animals. This belief was started by 19th-century thinkers and strengthened by a poorly supported study from the 1920s. As a result, smell has long been seen as the least important of the human senses.(长期以来,科学界和文化界认为人类的嗅觉不发达,尤其是与动物相比。这一观念由19世纪的思想家提出,并因20世纪20年代一项缺乏有力依据的研究而得到强化。因此,嗅觉一直被视为人类感官中最不重要的一种。)”可知,传统观点认为人类嗅觉微弱且不重要。故选C项。
47.推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Scientists have found that the human nose is far more skilled than once thought. In carefully managed experiments, humans can detect certain smells at levels lower than many animals, including rats, bats, and some monkeys. For example, the special smell added to natural gas to warn us of leaks can be sensed by humans even when only a few drops are mixed into an amount of water as large as an Olympic swimming pool.(科学家发现,人类的鼻子比以往认为的要灵敏得多。在严格控制的实验中,人类能在比许多动物(包括老鼠、蝙蝠和一些猴子)更低的浓度下察觉某些气味。例如,为警示天然气泄漏而添加的特殊气味,即使在奥运会游泳池那么大的水中只滴入几滴,人类也能察觉到。)”可知,这个例子表明人类的嗅觉比人们以往认为的更敏锐。故选B项。
48.细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The way the human brain processes smell is also quite different from other senses. While vision provides a detailed map of our surroundings, smell creates a holistic impression, mixed with inputs from other senses and emotions.(人类大脑处理嗅觉的方式也与其他感官截然不同。视觉为我们提供周围环境的详细图景,而嗅觉则会形成一种整体印象,融合来自其他感官和情绪的信息。)”可知,嗅觉会结合其他感官与情感共同起作用。故选C项。
49.细节理解题。根据第五段中的“This deep link between smell, memory, and emotion explains why smell loss (anosmia) can so severely damage one’s quality of life. As experienced by millions during the COVID-19 pandemic, anosmia can lead to a loss of appetite, as much of flavor comes from smell, and can cause sadness and emotional disconnection. It can make people feel separated from the world and their memories.(嗅觉、记忆和情绪之间的这种深层联系,解释了为什么嗅觉丧失会严重损害人的生活质量。正如数百万人在新冠疫情期间经历的那样,嗅觉丧失会导致食欲下降(因为食物的风味很大程度上来自嗅觉),还会引发悲伤和情感疏离,让人感觉与世界和记忆隔绝。)”可知,嗅觉丧失可能导致抑郁和孤独感。故选D项。
50.推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中的“For a long time, science and culture held that the human sense of smell was underdeveloped, especially compared to animals. This belief was started by 19th-century thinkers and strengthened by a poorly supported study from the 1920s. As a result, smell has long been seen as the least important of the human senses.(长期以来,科学界和文化界认为人类的嗅觉不发达,尤其是与动物相比。这一观念由19世纪的思想家提出,并因20世纪20年代一项缺乏有力依据的研究而得到强化。因此,嗅觉一直被视为人类感官中最不重要的一种。)”以及最后一段中的“Clearly, our sense of smell is not minor or unnecessary. It is a complex and powerful tool that continuously and quietly guides our interactions with the world, protects our well-being, and adds a rich, emotional layer to life.(显然,我们的嗅觉并非微不足道或毫无用处。它是一种复杂而强大的工具,持续而无声地引导我们与世界互动,保护我们的健康,并为生活增添丰富的情感层次。)”可知,文章先纠正人们对人类嗅觉的错误认知,再多角度论证嗅觉的重要作用,作者的写作目的是重新评价嗅觉的重要性。故选A项。
D
We humanists have been defending humanities (人文学科) for many decades now, but the crisis of the humanities only grows. In the face of declining student interest and mounting political scrutiny (审查), universities and colleges are increasingly cutting funding for humanities departments.
As a humanist, someone who reads, teaches and researches mainly philosophy and literature, I am prepared to admit that I do not know what the value of the humanities is. I don’t know whether the study of humanities promotes democracy (民主) or improves your moral character or enriches your leisure time or improves your critical thinking skills or increases your empathy. I once asked the best teacher I ever had why she no longer taught her favorite novel, and she said that she stopped teaching a book when she found she was no longer curious about it. The humanistic spirit is, fundamentally, an inquisitive one.
In contrast, defenses of the humanities are not and cannot be conducted in an inquisitive spirit, because a defensive spirit is inimical to an inquisitive one. Defensiveness is, it must be admitted, an understandable response when the chopping block is brought out and you need to explain why you shouldn’t be on it. It may be that humanists need to spend time joining political battles, which requires their participants to pretend to know things that they do not actually know.
Nonetheless, an atmosphere of urgency and calls for immediate action are hostile to fields of study like literature and philosophy that require a reflective mood, and pretending to know what one doesn’t actually know is hostile to forms of inquiry that demand an open mind.
A defensive mindset also encourages politicization. If the study of literature or philosophy helps to fight racism or to promote democracy and everyone agrees that racism is bad, and democracy is good — then you have your answer as to why we shouldn’t cut funding for the study of literature or philosophy The function of the humanities is to raise the questions about why racism is bad and democracy is good.
Humanists are not alone in their ignorance about the purpose of their disciplines. But scientists are under a lot less pressure to explain why they exist because the society at large believes itself to already have the answer to that question. I may not know why it’s important to read Homer and Plato, but I do have a deep love for reading, teaching and pondering the texts. The love is what I want to share with others, as well as the surprise and delight of finding resonance (共鸣).
The task of humanists is to invite, to welcome, to excite, to engage. And when we let ourselves be ourselves, when we allow the humanistic spirit to flow out not only into our classrooms but also in our public-self presentation, we find we don’t need to defend or prove anything: We are irresistible.
51.What’s the current trend facing humanities departments in universities?
A.They are receiving increased funding due to their long history.
B.They are experiencing a growth in student interest and political support.
C.They are facing budget cuts owing to low enrollment and more scrutiny.
D.They are successfully defending themselves against the ongoing crisis.
52.What’s the fundamental nature of the humanistic spirit?
A.Its ability to defend itself against funding cuts in college.
B.Its proven role in promoting democracy and moral character.
C.Its practical value in enriching leisure time and increasing empathy.
D.Its core characteristic of being inquisitive and driven by curiosity.
53.What does the word “inimical” underlined in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?
A.contrary. B.relevant. C.sensitive. D.identical.
54.How does the author feel about reading works by Homer and Plato?
A.He has deep insights into the great significance of reading them.
B.He gains immense pleasure in engaging with them.
C.He prefers to keep the love for them to himself.
D.He thinks they are not as essential as science books.
55.Which of the following might the author most probably agree?
A.Humanities may not need any defense. B.Science is more useful than humanities.
C.The future of humanities remains cloudy. D.The battle of humanities is a hard one to fight.
【答案】51.C 52.D 53.A 54.B 55.A
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了大学人文学科面临的危机、人文学科精神的本质以及作者对人文学科的态度。
51.细节理解题。根据第一段中“In the face of declining student interest and mounting political scrutiny (审查), universities and colleges are increasingly cutting funding for humanities departments.(面对学生兴趣下降和政治审查日益增多的情况,大学越来越多地削减对人文学系的资助)”可知,人文学系正面临着由于入学人数少和审查增多而导致的预算削减。故选C。
52.细节理解题。根据第二段中“The humanistic spirit is, fundamentally, an inquisitive one.(人文学科的精神本质上是一种求知欲强的精神)”可知,人文学科精神的核心特征是求知欲强,由好奇心驱动。故选D。
53.词句猜测题。根据第三段中“In contrast, defenses of the humanities are not and cannot be conducted in an inquisitive spirit, because a defensive spirit is inimical to an inquisitive one.(相比之下,对人文学科的辩护不是也不能以一种求知的精神进行,因为防御精神与求知精神是inimical)”可知,防御精神与求知精神是相反的,所以“inimical”意为“相反的”,与“contrary”意思相近。故选A。
54.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“I may not know why it’s important to read Homer and Plato, but I do have a deep love for reading, teaching and pondering the texts. The love is what I want to share with others, as well as the surprise and delight of finding resonance (共鸣).(我可能不知道为什么读荷马和柏拉图很重要,但我确实热爱阅读、教学和思考这些文本。这种爱是我想与他人分享的,以及发现共鸣的惊喜和喜悦)”可知,作者在阅读荷马和柏拉图的作品时获得了极大的乐趣。故选B。
55.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“And when we let ourselves be ourselves, when we allow the humanistic spirit to flow out not only into our classrooms but also in our public - self presentation, we find we don’t need to defend or prove anything: We are irresistible.(当我们做自己,当我们让人文精神不仅流入我们的教室,也流入我们的公众自我展示中时,我们发现我们不需要辩护或证明任何事情:我们是不可抗拒的)”可知,作者认为人文学科可能不需要任何辩护。故选A。
第二部分:写作(共两节,满分35分)
第一节:阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
A man from New Jersey was at risk of losing his home and had no one to help him until his neighbors found out and came together to raise $50, 000 to save his house. Lamar Harris has special needs and “his life has been full of tragedy,” his neighbor, Terri Fretz, wrote on GoFundMe.
Fretz said Harris lost both his mom and grandmother as a child and lived with his father and brother until they both suddenly died when he was an adult. Harris is alone.
“He cannot drive. He does not understand finances and has a very limited reading ability.” Fretz wrote. “As a result of the death of his family members, his limited reading ability and his inability to understand finances, he hasn’t paid his property taxes in time.”
Harris hasn’t paid property taxes since his father’s death in 2015 and the town would take back his house for back taxes. “Harris is in danger of losing his home,” Fretz’s post reads.
With his family members gone, Harris seemingly had no one to help him. Luckily, he has a loving community and church who decided to rally around him and raise the money needed to stop the foreclosure (赎回权取消) of his home, Fretz said.
Fretz created a GoFundMe on July 23, with a deadline to raise the money by August 5. While the town was working to help Mr Harris keep his property, about 1,007 people were donating to the GoFundMe. In just 13 days, they raised $64,804. Some donors gave up to $300.
One woman said she and her children sold apple juice to raise money for Harris. “We are Lamar’s neighbors and care about him very much,” she wrote. “He helps everyone in our community willingly from his heart. Everyone knows him and loves him. He deserves to stay in his home.” “I love you, man, and if you need anything, call me,” another man wrote to Harris.
Fretz updated the GoFundMe page to thank everyone. “You are all proof that kindness can make a difference in a person’s life in a big way,” she wrote.
56.Why did Fretz say that Harris’s life had been full of tragedy? (no more than 10 words)
57.What put Harris in danger of losing his home? (no more than 10 words)
58.What do the underlined words “rally around” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? (1 word)
59.How do you find Harris’s neighbors? (no more than 3 words)
60.What inspiration do you get from the story? Please say it in your own words. (no more than 25 words)
【答案】56.Because he lost his mom, grandmother, father, and brother. 57.Not paying property taxes in time. 58.Support. 59.Caring / Helpful / Kind-hearted. 60.We should help those in need, and love and help can make a difference.
【导语】本文是新闻报道。报道了新泽西州一位有特殊需要的男子Lamar Harris因家庭变故和自身能力限制而面临失去家园的危机,以及他的邻居们如何团结起来,通过GoFundMe平台筹集资金,帮助他保住家园的感人故事。
56.考查细节理解。根据第二段“Fretz said Harris lost both his mom and grandmother as a child and lived with his father and brother until they both suddenly died when he was an adult. Harris is alone.(Fretz说,哈里斯小时候失去了母亲和祖母,和父亲和兄弟住在一起,直到他成年后他们突然去世。哈里斯孤身一人)”可知,因为Harris的家人都去世了,所以Fretz说Harris的生活充满了悲剧。故回答:Because he lost his mom, grandmother, father, and brother.
57.考查细节理解。根据第四段“Harris hasn’t paid property taxes since his father’s death in 2015 and the town would take back his house for back taxes. “Harris is in danger of losing his home,” Fretz’s post reads.(自2015年父亲去世以来,Harris一直没有缴纳房产税,小镇将收回他的房子作为补缴税款。“Harris有失去家园的危险,”Fretz在帖子中写道)”可知,Harris未及时缴纳房产税,所以面临失去家园的危险。故回答:Not paying property taxes in time.
58.考查词句猜测。根据后文“Fretz created a GoFundMe on July 23, with a deadline to raise the money by August 5. While the town was working to help Mr Harris keep his property, about 1,007 people were donating to the GoFundMe. In just 13 days, they raised $64,804. Some donors gave up to $300.(Fretz于7月23日在GoFundMe网站上发起了筹款活动,截止日期为8月5日。当小镇努力帮助Harris先生保住他的财产时,大约有1007人向GoFundMe捐款。在短短13天内,他们筹集了64,804美元。一些捐赠者捐出了300美元)”可知,小镇上的人都在帮助Harris,在支持他,推知rally around应是“支持”之意,和support意思相近。故填Support。
59.考查推理判断。根据第一段“A man from New Jersey was at risk of losing his home and had no one to help him until his neighbors found out and came together to raise $50, 000 to save his house.(一名来自新泽西州的男子面临失去家园的危险,没有人可以帮助他,直到他的邻居发现并共同筹集了5万美元来拯救他的房子)”以及倒数第二段“One woman said she and her children sold apple juice to raise money for Harris. “We are Lamar’s neighbors and care about him very much,” she wrote.(一位妇女说,她和她的孩子们卖苹果汁为Harris筹集资金。“我们是Lamar的邻居,非常关心他,”她写道)”可知,Harris的邻居关心他,并且最终帮助他筹集了5万美元来拯救他的房子,所以他的邻居是关心人的,乐于助人的和热心的。故回答:Caring / Helpful / Kind-hearted。
60.开放性问题。根据最后一段“Fretz updated the GoFundMe page to thank everyone. “You are all proof that kindness can make a difference in a person’s life in a big way,” she wrote.(Fretz更新了GoFundMe页面,感谢大家。“你们都证明了善良可以在很大程度上改变一个人的生活,”她写道)”可知,我们应该帮助那些需要帮助的人,爱和帮助可以带来改变。故回答:We should help those in need, and love and help can make a difference.

I was born and raised in Oxford. After graduating from university in 2007, I traveled to Beijing to teach there for a summer, caught the China bug, and stayed for the next fifteen years. I found myself just as burnout by life as my fellow urbanites (都市人), and something had to 16 . On the second day of 2020, I was on the train to Dali. Here, I met other urban transplants, each 17 their own Shangri-la (dreamland) in which they hope to reinvent themselves.
At that time, a new buzzword, “neijuan,” was starting to appear online, and a(n) 18 was proposed: “tang ping,” or to “lie flat”, or “quit the rat race”. If material goals weren’t 19 , maybe there was a different mountain to climb.
In Dali, I looked up at the top of the grand range of Cangshan every morning, 20 that on this mountain I would be restored and healed. Reaching its summit was a(n) 21 I was obsessed with, and nine months later, I finally set off to climb it. I packed my tent and headed off at first light, scaling the crisscross of donkey paths that 22 their way up. It took a full day to reach the mountaintop.
Next morning, as I watched the sun rise 23 the valley, a scene as beautiful as I had expected it to be, I felt a sense of 24 because a physical task was completed. Emotionally, though, it was a letdown — I felt no 25 . I suddenly realized that the 26 I had been searching for weren’t up here. The work of finding mental calm, true serenity, was to be done on the ground.
On the second night, I climbed down and reached home. I started cooking, fixed up my rented farmhouse, grew vegetables and spent time outdoors. 27 , too: music, running and tai chi.

I live in New York now, 34 a new life all over again. But I’m trying to keep alive some of the spirit of Dali and its 35 — from finding inner shelter where I can, to remembering I’m not the center of the universe.

When an epidemic hit our region, many of us turned to TV to pass the time. Neeti Goel and her children Anishka, age 15 and Arav, age 17, turned to volunteering to help those in need of a warm meal and a bit of sunshine in their lives. Neeti and her children began preparing casseroles (炖菜) and soups for Homeland Hospice patients and their families.
“We started with the desire to volunteer,” Neeti says. “It wasn’t long before we perfected our work and began preparing meals twice a month.” A month into their volunteering work, Anishka and Arav took on most of the cooking and expanded their menu to include soups. “It felt good to know we were helping others,” Anishka says. “Volunteering for a brief amount of time can make a big difference.”
After months of meal preparation for Homeland, Neeti and her children began helping two additional hospice (临终安养院) organizations in the region. As their work expanded, so did their grocery (食品杂货) bill. Anishka and Arav decided to start their own nonprofit (非营利的) organization to raise funds to pay for the food needed to prepare meals. The teens founded Rays of Sunshine to bring a bit of light to families in their time of need.
From working with a lawyer to creating a website, Anishka and Arav did everything. The experiences provided valuable life skills as well as resources to keep their love of helping others going.
Rays of Sunshine held its first fundraising event a few days ago. “We have raised more than $1,500,” Arav says. “The funds will help us continue making meals for families.” The event not only raised funds, but brought awareness of the power of volunteerism at any age and the work of Homeland Hospice.
Neeti, Anishka and Arav, never dreamed their decision to volunteer would create a transformational experience for the family. They simply set out to make someone’s day a bit brighter. “We were so pleased to learn how much the families enjoyed our cooking,” Neeti says. “It has been wonderful for us to work together as a family.”
41.What happened after the family volunteered for a month?
A.They expanded their work by joining two organizations.
B.The kids took charge of almost all the cooking.

C.It was started by Neeti, Anishka and Arav. D.It raises money to cover the cost of meals.
43.What can we infer about Rays of Sunshine’s first fundraising event?
A.It influenced participants in unintended ways.
B.It invited many families to join in meal — making.
C.It spread the message that people of any age can volunteer.
D.It received a positive response from people who had received meals.
44.The voluntary work of Neeti’s two children made them become more ________.
A.responsible B.intelligent C.innovative D.self-critical

For a long time, science and culture held that the human sense of smell was underdeveloped, especially compared to animals. This belief was started by 19th-century thinkers and strengthened by a poorly supported study from the 1920s. As a result, smell has long been seen as the least important of the human senses.
However, new research challenges this misunderstanding. Scientists have found that the human nose is far more skilled than once thought. In carefully managed experiments, humans can detect certain smells at levels lower than many animals, including rats, bats, and some monkeys. For example, the special smell added to natural gas to warn us of leaks can be sensed by humans even when only a few drops are mixed into an amount of water as large as an Olympic swimming pool.
The power of smell goes far beyond simple detection; it strongly influences human behavior, often unconsciously. The weak smell of cleaning products, for example, can lead people to clean up. The familiar smell of coffee actually improves focus and mental performance. Stores often use “scent marketing”, understanding that the smell of fresh bread can create a friendly environment, and raise the chance of buying things.
The way the human brain processes smell is also quite different from other senses. While vision provides a detailed map of our surroundings, smell creates a holistic impression, mixed with inputs from other senses and emotions. The awareness of a lemon’s smell, for example, can be made stronger by its bright yellow color. Similarly, feelings of hunger or memories of past sickness can greatly change how we experience food smells, making them either attractive or unpleasant.
This deep link between smell, memory, and emotion explains why smell loss (anosmia) can so severely damage one’s quality of life. As experienced by millions during the COVID-19 pandemic, anosmia can lead to a loss of appetite, as much of flavor comes from smell, and can cause sadness and emotional disconnection. It can make people feel separated from the world and their memories.
Clearly, our sense of smell is not minor or unnecessary. It is a complex and powerful tool that continuously and quietly guides our interactions with the world, protects our well-being, and adds a rich, emotional layer to life.
46.What is the traditional belief about the human sense of smell?
A.Superior to animals’. B.Key to emotional memory.
C.Weak and unimportant. D.Complex but misunderstood.
47.What is implied by the gas leak example?
A.Dogs are unnecessary for gas detection. B.Humans can smell better than believed.
C.Human safety relies mainly on smell. D.The study aimed to compare species.
48.What do we learn about smell from Paragraph 4?
A.It gives environmental analysis. B.It is key to human survival.
C.It combines senses and feelings. D.It works without consciousness.
49.What is a possible result of anosmia?
A.Permanent taste loss. B.Better work concentration.
C.Connection with the world. D.Depression and isolation.
50.What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A.To revalue the importance of smell.
B.To explain the causes of smell loss.
C.To discuss the history of perfume.
D.To describe the process of smelling.
D
We humanists have been defending humanities (人文学科) for many decades now, but the crisis of the humanities only grows. In the face of declining student interest and mounting political scrutiny (审查), universities and colleges are increasingly cutting funding for humanities departments.
As a humanist, someone who reads, teaches and researches mainly philosophy and literature, I am prepared to admit that I do not know what the value of the humanities is. I don’t know whether the study of humanities promotes democracy (民主) or improves your moral character or enriches your leisure time or improves your critical thinking skills or increases your empathy. I once asked the best teacher I ever had why she no longer taught her favorite novel, and she said that she stopped teaching a book when she found she was no longer curious about it. The humanistic spirit is, fundamentally, an inquisitive one.
In contrast, defenses of the humanities are not and cannot be conducted in an inquisitive spirit, because a defensive spirit is inimical to an inquisitive one. Defensiveness is, it must be admitted, an understandable response when the chopping block is brought out and you need to explain why you shouldn’t be on it. It may be that humanists need to spend time joining political battles, which requires their participants to pretend to know things that they do not actually know.
Nonetheless, an atmosphere of urgency and calls for immediate action are hostile to fields of study like literature and philosophy that require a reflective mood, and pretending to know what one doesn’t actually know is hostile to forms of inquiry that demand an open mind.
A defensive mindset also encourages politicization. If the study of literature or philosophy helps to fight racism or to promote democracy and everyone agrees that racism is bad, and democracy is good — then you have your answer as to why we shouldn’t cut funding for the study of literature or philosophy The function of the humanities is to raise the questions about why racism is bad and democracy is good.
Humanists are not alone in their ignorance about the purpose of their disciplines. But scientists are under a lot less pressure to explain why they exist because the society at large believes itself to already have the answer to that question. I may not know why it’s important to read Homer and Plato, but I do have a deep love for reading, teaching and pondering the texts. The love is what I want to share with others, as well as the surprise and delight of finding resonance (共鸣).
The task of humanists is to invite, to welcome, to excite, to engage. And when we let ourselves be ourselves, when we allow the humanistic spirit to flow out not only into our classrooms but also in our public-self presentation, we find we don’t need to defend or prove anything: We are irresistible.
51.What’s the current trend facing humanities departments in universities?
A.They are receiving increased funding due to their long history.
B.They are experiencing a growth in student interest and political support.
C.They are facing budget cuts owing to low enrollment and more scrutiny.
D.They are successfully defending themselves against the ongoing crisis.
52.What’s the fundamental nature of the humanistic spirit?
A.Its ability to defend itself against funding cuts in college.
B.Its proven role in promoting democracy and moral character.
C.Its practical value in enriching leisure time and increasing empathy.
D.Its core characteristic of being inquisitive and driven by curiosity.
53.What does the word “inimical” underlined in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?
A.contrary. B.relevant. C.sensitive. D.identical.
54.How does the author feel about reading works by Homer and Plato?
A.He has deep insights into the great significance of reading them.
B.He gains immense pleasure in engaging with them.
C.He prefers to keep the love for them to himself.
D.He thinks they are not as essential as science books.
55.Which of the following might the author most probably agree?
A.Humanities may not need any defense. B.Science is more useful than humanities.
C.The future of humanities remains cloudy. D.The battle of humanities is a hard one to fight.

A man from New Jersey was at risk of losing his home and had no one to help him until his neighbors found out and came together to raise $50, 000 to save his house. Lamar Harris has special needs and “his life has been full of tragedy,” his neighbor, Terri Fretz, wrote on GoFundMe.
Fretz said Harris lost both his mom and grandmother as a child and lived with his father and brother until they both suddenly died when he was an adult. Harris is alone.
“He cannot drive. He does not understand finances and has a very limited reading ability.” Fretz wrote. “As a result of the death of his family members, his limited reading ability and his inability to understand finances, he hasn’t paid his property taxes in time.”
Harris hasn’t paid property taxes since his father’s death in 2015 and the town would take back his house for back taxes. “Harris is in danger of losing his home,” Fretz’s post reads.
With his family members gone, Harris seemingly had no one to help him. Luckily, he has a loving community and church who decided to rally around him and raise the money needed to stop the foreclosure (赎回权取消) of his home, Fretz said.
Fretz created a GoFundMe on July 23, with a deadline to raise the money by August 5. While the town was working to help Mr Harris keep his property, about 1,007 people were donating to the GoFundMe. In just 13 days, they raised $64,804. Some donors gave up to $300.
One woman said she and her children sold apple juice to raise money for Harris. “We are Lamar’s neighbors and care about him very much,” she wrote. “He helps everyone in our community willingly from his heart. Everyone knows him and loves him. He deserves to stay in his home.” “I love you, man, and if you need anything, call me,” another man wrote to Harris.
Fretz updated the GoFundMe page to thank everyone. “You are all proof that kindness can make a difference in a person’s life in a big way,” she wrote.
56.Why did Fretz say that Harris’s life had been full of tragedy? (no more than 10 words)
57.What put Harris in danger of losing his home? (no more than 10 words)
58.What do the underlined words “rally around” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? (1 word)
59.How do you find Harris’s neighbors? (no more than 3 words)
60.What inspiration do you get from the story? Please say it in your own words. (no more than 25 words)
