第二部分 阅读理解（共两节, 满分37.5分）
第一节（共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分）
A
When Veronika Scott was a student at the College in Detroit, Michigan, she received an assignment to “design to fill a need.” She dreamed up an idea for insulated (绝缘的) overcoats that would double as sleeping bags, and handed them out to people living in the temporary shelters. While her efforts were greeted mostly with enthusiasm from those who suffered from Detroit’s winters, one woman expressed a disagreement. “We don’t need coats; we need jobs.” she told Veronika. Then Veronika had her second inspiration.
Veronika, now 26, found an expert to teach two homeless women to sew and hired them to assemble the coats. She paid them with donations she received through her blog. At first, the coats were constructed in a small homeless shelter’s utility closet. After graduating from college in 2012, she founded the Empowerment Plan, a nonprofit organization. Clothing producer Carhartt donated several old industrial sewing machines and so on. GM and other companies chipped in operating funds and insulating materials.
The group employs about 20 people — mostly single mothers, some of whom have served time — and pays them more than Michigan’s minimum wage. “We don’t require a GED (General Educational Development) or even previous employment.” Veronika says. “Instead, we’re looking for people who are motivated.” The Empowerment Plan provides free education and offers micro-loans to those who qualify. Nearly all the employees eventually move into permanent housing, and some go on to well-paid jobs.
To date, the Empowerment Plan has produced more than 10, 000 coats and distributed them home and abroad. “Still, we less focus on coats than on the workers who make them.” Veronika says, “At the end of the day, the coat is a vehicle for us to employ people.”
11. What inspired Veronika to truly design to fill a need
A. An assignment. B. Her dream.
C. A woman’s opinion. D. A drive to make money.
12. What does the underlined word “chipped in” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Contributed. B. Loaned. C. Gave out. D. Set aside.
13. Who would be mostly likely to be hired by Veronika
A. A poor student. B. An old beggar. C. A retired lady. D. A divorced mother.
B
We are what we eat. From calorie-inducing meals to low-fat lunches, much of our health depends on what we eat. We know about the benefits of eating properly for our physical well-being, but food-and cooking it-is proving to be good for our mental well-being as well.
Many professionals are now advocating the therapeutic value of cooking food. It’s not just about the end result but the experience someone goes through. Dr Mark Salter, a consultant psychiatrist, said, “Baking and cooking are good therapies that help patients develop planning skills, short-term memory and social skills, all of which suffer in mental illness.”
TV chef and author Nadiya Hussain agrees that cooking is great for helping our mind. She loves to bake and became the champion of the TV show, The Great British Bake Off. She says that “Baking’s always been about therapy. It’s never really been about the cake. ” And she thinks that baking is an important tool for our socialization and mental health.
Certainly, creating some delicious food has helped us get through the recent lockdown. People have said that kneading dough (揉面团) to make bread, for example, has given them a sense of calm and control when they feel lonely and depressed. Research has shown that doing creative tasks, like cooking, makes us feel happier. Nicole Farmer, who studies how food impacts our biology, behavior and mental health, said, “cooking represents the shared human experience of food, and nurturing people through food, so I think that’s where it incorporates opportunities for immediate positive emotions.”
Of course, cooking can be a very sociable activity and sharing the end result can be a rewarding experience. We can enjoy its benefits and let go of anxiety and depression.
14. How does the author prove his point of view
A. By making comparisons. B. By giving examples.
C. By making logical reasoning. D. By listing numbers.
15. What can we know according to paragraph 4
A. Creating food benefits us physically.
B. Kneading dough makes us feel delightful.
C. Cooking is linked with delayed positive emotions.
D. Cooking helps us feel positive during the lockdown.
16. Where is this text probably taken from
A. Science fiction. B. Cooking guide.
C. Health magazine. D. Psychological textbook.
C
Recently, a research on how a new virtual reality (VR) experience educated primary children about the fire disasters was done. It was developed by the University of South Australia, aiming to educate children to learn how to be safer in a fire.
Focusing on children aged 10-12 years, the new VR experience presents a situation where children are tasked to look after a friend’s dog just before a fire event begins to unfold. They participate in a series of problem-solving activities to help save and protect themselves and the dog.
The findings showed that more than 80 per cent of children reported that they felt more confident to calmly evaluate the options and make wise decisions to protect themselves from a fire. This is especially significant considering that 91 per cent of participants originally lacked any knowledge of fires, and that 67 per cent had said that they were too young to make safety decisions in a fire.
The researchers believed such immersive VR experiences had real potential to engage, educate and empower the young. “As children born in digital times, they are engaged by such technology and they can experience events realistically yet within the safe environment,” said Delene Weber, one of the researchers. “Well-designed VR can provide an opportunity for children to apply newly acquired knowledge, strengthen their learnt concepts, and enable immediate feedback—all incredibly valuable learning tools.”
Meanwhile, because children have fewer life experiences, aren’t as physically strong, and are less likely to have learned much about fire safety, they’re often most at risk. Yet the capacity for children to contribute to fire safety at their household should not be underestimated.
“Children do not need to be passive victims of disasters and with purpose-built virtual reality experiences such as these, we can help empower children to understand the risks but realize they can help,” said Weber.
17. How does the new VR experience try to educate children
A. By introducing a virtual friend to them. B. By letting them solve virtual problems.
C. By analyzing the causes of a fire event. D. By guiding them to ask a dog for help.
18. What did the result of the research about VR experiences show
A. Many children found it hard to adapt to them.
B. They benefited children with knowledge of fire.
C. They could greatly help ensure children’s safety.
D. Most children had a misunderstanding about them.
19. What does Weber think of the new VR experiences
A. Unrealistic. B. Dangerous. C. Unnecessary. D. Significant.
20. What can be the most suitable title for the text
A. VR experiences educate kids to survive a fire.
B. VR experiences make learning easier for kids.
C. VR education appeals to the young generation.
D. VR technology makes no sense in fighting a fire.

How to Convince Your Parents to Give You More Freedom
As you grow up, it can happen that you want more time to go out with friends or more computer time, but your parents are concerned about you. In this case, how can you gain more freedom from your parents 21 Here are some tips to help you make it.
Follow your parents’ rules and instructions without complaint. 22 You are also supposed to take care of your chores, such as cleaning your room or finishing your homework in time without being asked. It will remind them how responsibly you’ve been acting and show them your self-control.
23 Let them know what’s on your mind and what’s going on in your life. They’ll be more likely to consider your requests if they understand your point of view. Ask them for advice regarding school, friends, or anything else you have going on. They will appreciate that you value their opinions.
Avoid dangerous behaviors and wrong companions. It will be much harder for your parents to give you more freedom if you’re drinking, partying a lot, or hanging out with the wrong crowds. 24 Your parents can see how reliable they are. Always ask for permission before hanging out or staying out late. Your parents will feel relieved to know where you are and what you are doing.
Remain calm and accept their decision. Explain to them exactly why you think you can handle this particular freedom. If they say no, respect that choice. Becoming angry will only prove to them that you are not yet mature enough to handle additional freedom. Continue your good behavior instead. They might eventually recognize that you have grown up. 25
A. If possible, bring your friends home.
B. Naturally you will be given more freedom.
C. Always come home when you’re supposed to.
D. Choose an appropriate time to discuss this topic.
E. You will need to show them that you are trustworthy.
F. Connect with your parents frequently in your daily life.
G. For instance, you can think about any possible consequence.

They don't mean it
Our family moved here from China two years ago, and we thought we were pretty well adjusted to American ways. This year my parents decided to give a party on Chinese New Year and invite some of our American friends.
The party went pretty well. Our guests were amazed at the flavor of all the special foods. After the dinner they thanked us for showing them what a real Chinese New Year dinner was like.
"I loved the dishes. You and the girls must have spent hours doing all the work." Mrs. O’Meara said to my mother.
"The girls helped with the cutting and I'm sorry they did such a terrible job." said Mother.
I heard a little gasp（倒吸气） from my friend Kim O’Meara, who stared wide-eyes at Mother. When I asked what the matter was, she told me she just didn’t understand why my mother said so.
I had to laugh. "She doesn't mean it! It’s just the way she talks."
Seeing her still confused, I went on explaining, "In China, parents consider it good manners to deny praises bout their children. Otherwise, it would be the same as bragging（自夸）." Kim seemed a little hesitant, but she nodded anyway.
That Easter, the O’Meara’s invited our family for dinner. Mrs. O’Meara cooked a huge ham which we enjoyed a lot. As Mrs. O'Meara started cutting the cake for dessert, Mother said," I'm not sure if l can eat one more bite. That was the best ham I've ever tasted!"
"Aw, that ham was terrible," said Kim. "I bet you could do a lot better, Mrs. Yang."
注意: 1.续写短文词数应为 150左右。
2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。
There was a stunned（震惊的） silence around the table._____________________________

应用文写作(15分) Dear Jackson,
I’m more than delighted to share my opinion, which I hope will be of some help to you. Frankly, I hold the view that it makes sense to study abroad. The reasons are as follows.
Above all, while studying abroad, we are exposed to a foreign language setting and the learning process becomes engaging and effective. Moreover, bathed in a different culture of a foreign country, we can gain great insights into the world because cross-cultural experiences can give us a global perspective. Studying abroad takes us out of our comfort zone and changes us for the better, which is the most important from my perspective.
All things considered, I hope you can choose to study abroad and start a new life.
Yours,
Li Hua

Para 1：There was a deadly silence around the table. O’Meara was staring coldly at Kim, whose face reddened with embarrassment. I was also shocked at my friend's mean remark. Clearing my throat, I finally asked, "What did you talk to your mother like that " Kim turned around, seemingly annoyed, “B-but you were the one who t-told me that saying nice things about your own family was the same as bragging!" she stuttered. "I was just trying to act modestly!”
Para2: I finally knew that Kim had misunderstood what I had said. I took her hands in mine to calm her down, and explained “Generally Chinese parents doesn’t praise their children in front of others to show modesty but young people are always expected to be respectful to the elder." Hearing this, Kim sighed deeply, her cheeks flushed. The awkward silence was soon broken as the misunderstanding was erased. Drooping her head, Kim apologized to her mother for her impolite behavior. Mrs. O'Meara winked at her, joking, "That's all right. We know you didn't mean it!”
