DBIn 1939, seven-year-old Miriam Schreiber should have started first grade. Instead, she spent that year — and the following five — trying to survive. She was living in Poland when World War II broke out. “My entire life was ruined within minutes,” she says. “I was looking forward to starting school.” She never made it. And not having a degree has always been a thorn in her side.Decades later, though, the now-89-year-old Holocaust survivor finally got something she had always longed for. Kapiloff Brander, director of community programs at Jewish Family Services, reached out to the New England Jewish Academy, a Jewish high school, to ask whether the school could help Mariam fulfill her wish. Richard Nabel, the principal of the school, brought a few senior students to Miriam’s home to hear her story before they came up with the idea of presenting her an honorary diploma at the school’s 2020 graduation ceremony.Miriam suffered a lot in a slave labor camp in Siberia before she got liberated in 1946. She and her remaining family members went to a refugee camp in Germany, where she got married and had her first child at the age of 16. Having spent years in refugee camps in different countries, she finally immigrated to America in 1960. Getting a formal education was never an option for her but she learned seven languages over the years. “I educated myself,” she says. “I read books day and night. I still do.”On August 16, during a socially distanced ceremony in the school gym, Miriam was presented with a high school diploma from the New England Jewish Academy. “There weren’t too many dry eyes among the 30 of us there,” says Nabel. Miriam’s family was especially moved. “I’m not sure she even realizes the importance of that moment to me,” says Bernie, her eldest son. “I am so proud of her.”24. What can be learned about Mariam from paragraph 1?A. She regretted not being educated at school.B. She started first grade at the age of seven.C. She felt lucky to have survived World War II.D. She spent five years in Poland during the war.25. How did Mariam get her long-cherished wish fulfilled?A. She made it through her own efforts.B. She turned to Kapiloff Brander for help.C. The senior students themselves presented a diploma to her.D. Richard Nabel learned about her story and decided to help.26. Which of the following best describes Mariam?A. Educated. B. Intelligent.C. Determined.  D. Patient.27. What did Nabel mean by saying “There weren’t too many dry eyes”?A. Mariam’s story was ordinary but inspiring.B. Most of those present were deeply touched.C. He was impressed by Mariam and was proud of her.D. He felt honored to present Mariam with a diploma.【答案】24. A    25. D    26. C    27. BCIt’s possible that your phone’s face-unlock might finally be able to work while you’re wearing a mask. Researchers have found that facial recognition algorithms (算法) are getting better at recognizing faces in masks, according to data published on Tuesday by the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST). Using independent testing of more than 150 separate facial recognition algorithms, the new report suggests masks may not be as big a problem for facial recognition systems as initially thought.When NIST first examined masks’ effect on facial recognition in July 2020, it found that algorithms weren’t great at identifying faces with masks. “Face recognition can make errors, which can implicate people for crimes they haven’t committed,” writes the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF). “It is particularly bad at recognizing African Americans and other ethnic minorities, women, and young people.” But the pandemic has given developers plenty of time to focus on the mask problem, and NIST’s data shows that facial recognition algorithms are getting better at working with masked faces. “After the pandemic, some developers have submitted algorithms which show significantly improved accuracy and are now among the most accurate in our test,” the report reads. NIST’s public ranking for facial recognition tests bears out this report. Eight different algorithms now hold false rates below 0.05 percent.Nevertheless, there remain a number of limitations to the study. NIST researchers did not employ actual images of masked faces. Instead, they applied masks digitally to ensure consistency across the sample. As a result, “We were not able to get a thorough simulation (模仿) of the endless variations in color, design, shape, texture, and ways masks can be worn,” the report states. The digital mask was a blue surgical mask covering the full width of the face, but testers noted that performance varied considerably depending on how high the mask was placed on the face.28. Recognizing masked faces with facial recognition systems used to be thought as _______.A. effective  B. impossibleC. easy  D. challenging29. What does the underlined phrase “bear out” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Make. B. Prove.C. Deny. D. Oppose.30. What can be learned about the study?A. The way to wear masks may affect recognition accuracy.B. The design of a mask makes no difference to facial recognition.C. Facial recognition failure rates were quite low at the beginning.D. The researchers adopted real surgical masks to ensure the accuracy.31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. Limitations of Facial Recognition SoftwareB. The Challenge of Recognizing Masked FacesC. The improvement in Facial Recognition AlgorithmsD. Different Applications of Facial Recognition Technology【答案】28. D    29. B    30. A    31. CDMany livestock farmers (牧场主) in the western world are becoming worried by a longer-term threat to their income from the growing popularity of vegetarian (素食的) diets. Here comes the question whether to eat meat or not. Before airing our view, we should consider seriously the three reasons that vegetarians give for refusing animal products.The easiest point to argue against is that eating meat is unhealthy. Nothing is healthier than a varied diet, including fiber, vegetable, fruit and meat. Although studies show that eating red and processed meat may raise the risk of some cancers, it is important not to overstate the effect. This week, for example, Cancer Research UK reported that eating an extra piece of bacon every day raised the risk of bowel cancer by 20 per cent. But that means just eight extra (largely curable) cases in every 10,000 people over six years.Our treatment of farm animals is an issue that vegetarians find more troubling. A common view is that raising animals in a small area cause unacceptable suffering. In this regard, agricultural authorities should take up the responsibility to enforce welfare standards that give each animal enough space to stand and move around comfortably. Also, consumers have an important role to play in improving conditions for farm animals. For example, the dislike of “battery hens”led to an EU ban in 2012 on keeping chickens in barren cages.The environmental impact of livestock farming is its greatest problem in a century. The UN Food and Agriculture Organization estimates that farmed animals account for 14.5% of greenhouse gas emission. Although changes in grazing（放牧）practices could substantially reduce the environmental impact of livestock farming, it will always use more resources than producing the same number of calories from plant crops. Meat production should focus on the world’s traditional grasslands, without taking up new land.32. Which of the following is NOT the reason against animal products given by vegetarians?A. It harms human health.B. It causes animal suffering.C. It damages the environment.D. It threatens the income of farmers.33. Why does the author mention the report from Cancer Research UK in paragraph 2?A. To prove that eating too much meat is unhealthy.B. To persuade people out of eating too much meat.C. To show that eating meat is not as unhealthy as vegetarians think.D. To present the fact that eating too much bacon may cause cancer.34. What’s the author’s attitude towards raising animals in a small area?A. Favorable. B. Negative.C. Indifferent. D. Unclear.35. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?A. The changes in feeding practices.B. The challenges that livestock farming faces.C. The negative effects of livestock farming on the environment.D. The measures to reduce the environmental impact of livestock farming.【答案】32. D    33. C    34. B    35.

However, make sure that the message doesn’t accuse (谴责) others of taking the object in question. ___38___Slow down.The more important the object is, the more we are likely to run around like a headless chicken with the mistaken idea that our rush will speed up finding the object. ___39___Slowing down will give you a chance to think back to the last time and place you saw the missing object. This may give you a clue (线索) or two as to where the object is.Get help from othersGetting the help of someone else anyone who knows what the object looks like will do fine.___40___Also, this gives an extra thought pattern to the search. In fact, It may be the best way to find lost objects fast.A. This won’t help you find the lost object but it helps you calm down.B. This doubles the number of people looking for the lost object.C. Has anyone tidied up recently?D. Have you lent the object out?E. You can even turn to those you don’t know at all.F.

Usually Mom was awake making breakfast and cleaning the kitchen, but not today. At the sound of his mom coughing, Jeremy knocked on her bedroom door and asked with great concern, “Mom, are you ok?” “Honey,” Mom said weakly. “I have a terrible cold. You can have cereal (燕麦) for breakfast and watch cartoons. I’m going to stay in bed.”Jeremy poured some cereal into a bowl and ate the pieces dry. Mom must feel very bad if she was staying in bed all day. How could Jeremy help? First, he wiped up the crumbs of cereal he left on the kitchen counter. He also put away the cereal box neatly, so the kitchen looked just as it did when he woke up. But what else could he do? Jeremy thought. Saturday was the day when mom did laundry. Jeremy loved to watch the clothes spinning in the machine. That should be fun! He ran to his room to get the laundry basket, inside which there was his mother’s favorite white dress, among other clothes and a pair of red socks.Jeremy opened the door to the washer and put the clothing inside. He had watched Mom do laundry lots of times, so he knew where to find the washing powder and how to pour it into the machine. Finally, he closed the door and pressed the big button that said “START.” Jeremy looked through the round glass window. Water was pouring in, and the machine was starting to spin, making his clothing tumble around. That was easy!Jeremy watched cartoons until he heard the washing machine beep. That meant the washing was done. Jeremy opened the door to take out the damp clothes. He took out a few at a time and moved them into the dryer. Everything seemed clean, and Jeremy felt proud. Then he pulled out a pink dress.注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。But he remembered there was no pink dress in the laundry basket._____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Holding the neatly folded pink dress, Jeremy nervously knocked at his mom’s bedroom door again._____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【答案】One Possible Version:But he remembered there was no pink dress in the laundry basket. “Where did it come from?” Jeremy wondered, reaching into the washer to take out more clothes. Then much to his astonishment, he pulled out two T-shirts, both in light pink. Realizing there was something wrong, Jeremy stood frozen, his heart sinking. While racking his brain for reasons, he caught sight of the red socks, and it suddenly occurred to him that they must be to blame for the accident. With no means of handling the situation, Jeremy was in such a panic that he even thought of hiding the dress from his mom. “That isn’t a positive approach to the problem,” he reminded himself. Finally, he decided to dry and fold the laundry before telling his mom everything.Holding the neatly folded pink dress, Jeremy nervously knocked at his mom’s bedroom door again. After what seemed like ages, he came to the bedside, his head drooping. Sensing his son’s unease, his mother inquired with concern what was wrong. “Sorry mom, I shouldn’t have ruined your favorite dress.” Jeremy apologized. Stuttering out the mistake he had made, he was ready to get a good scolding for his wrongdoing. Realizing what’s going on, mom smiled understandingly at Jeremy, “Never mind, dear. I know you meant to help.” Then mom held the dress up before her and said in an approving tone, “You know what? I think it looks nice.” At this Jeremy beamed with relief, making a silent vow to be more careful in helping his mom out next time.
