In 2020, Earth Overshoot Day fell on August 22, three weeks later than 2019’s date of July 29 as a result of COVID-19 lockdowns, meaning that humanity consumed less resources than last year.According to research conducted by Global Footprint Network, an international research organization, COVID-19- related lockdowns resulted in a 9.3% reduction in humanity’s ecological footprint compared with the same period last year.However, we would still need 1.6 Earths to keep up with our current use of ecological resources.While Mathis Wackernagel, president of Global Footprint Network, called this year’s data “encouraging,” he called for further progress to be made “by design, not by disaster.”CEO of Global Footprint Network Laurel Hanscom adds, “Sustainability requires that both ecological balance and people’s well-being be ensured over the long-term, therefore this year’s sudden Ecological Footprint reduction cannot be mistaken for progress.”According to the research, Australia used up its resources in the first half year during its 2019/ 2020 forest fire season.Wackernagel says, “We’re using up the future to pay for the present. We’ve only got one planet and that’s not going to change.”The research organization says that sustainability of a society depends on the sound management of ecological resources. To do this, we need to change the way we produce our food, we move around, how many children we have and how much land we protect for wildlife. Reducing our overall carbon footprint by 50% would push the date back 93 days, cutting food waste in half, 13 days. And if we push the date back by 5 days each year, humanity would be using less than one planet before 2050.5. What led to less resource consumption in 2020?A. Sound management of ecology. B. Improved awareness.C. The forest fire season. D. COVID-19 lockdowns.6. What is Laurel Hanscom’s attitude towards this year’s data?A. Negative.      B. Cautious.       C. Positive.      D. Critical.7. What can we learn from the figures of the last paragraph?A. Good management of natural resources has a positive effect.B. We have reduced carbon footprint by 50%.C. The more children we have, the wealthier our life are.D. The way we travel around doesn’t make any difference.8. What’s the best title for this text?A. To reduce carbon footprint of food.B. To encourage humans to use resources slowly.C. Using less resources in 2020 than last year. D. COVID-19 lockdown being good for development.   CSoot (煤灰) pollution is speeding up climate-driven melting in Antarctica, a new study suggests, raising questions about how to protect the delicate continent from the increasing number of humans who want to visit.“It really makes us question, is our presence really needed?” says Alia Khan, one of the authors of the new study. “We have quite a large black carbon footprint in Antarctica, which is enhancing snow and ice melt.”Black carbon is the leftover thing from burning plants or fossil fuels. Soot in Antarctica comes primarily from waste gases of cruise ships (游轮), vehicles, airplanes and electrical generators, although some pollution travels on the wind from other parts of the globe. The dark particles (微粒) coat white snow and absorb heat from the sun the way a black T-shirt does on a warm day. The blanket of dark bits speeds up melting that was already happening more quickly because of global warming. When snow and ice are uncovered, they reflect an enormous amount of sunlight before it can turn into heat.“These are the mirrors on our planet,” says Sonia Nagorski, a scientist at the University of Alaska Southeast. “When those mirrors are covered in a film of dark bits, they are less reflective. That means more heat is trapped on Earth, speeding up melting and contributing to global warming.”As a scientist who personally visits Antarctica every year, Khan says she is troubled by her own research results. On the one hand, she goes to Antarctica to collect crucial data about how quickly the snow and ice there are disappearing. “But then when we come to conclusions like this it really does make us think twice about how frequently we need to visit the continent,” she says, “and what kind of regulations should be placed on tourism as well.” That could mean requiring that cruise ships and vehicles be electric, for example, or limiting the number of visitors each year.9. What are the feelings expressed in Khan’s words in paragraph 2?A. Optimism and certainty.         B. Confidence and courage.C. Anger and disappointment.       D. Doubt and concern.10. Which of the following is a major source of soot in Antarctica?A. Tourist vehicles.               B. Burnt plants.C. Black carbon elsewhere.           D. Fossil fuels underneath Antarctica.11. What does Nagorski say about soot?A. It causes Antarctic surface temperature to rise.B. It is increasing in amount because of wind.C. It reflects a large volume of sunlight.D. It is like a big mirror on Earth.12. What might Khan do in the future?A. Help design scientific research regulations.B. Reduce her visits to Antarctica.C. Collect more data about Antarctica.D. Use electric cars for her daily transportation.第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）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。According to Jessica Hagy, author of How to Be Interesting, it’s not difficult to make yourself interesting at a dinner party.13 , if you’re out of your comfort zone or if you’re wandering into somebody’s house for the first time. So the main thing is just to show up and be adventurous, trying different foods and talking to strangers.People love to talk about themselves. If you can start the conversation with a question other than “What do you do for a living?”, you’ll be able to get a lot more interesting conversation out of whomever it is you’re talking to. 14 , it can bring in “I have this old, broken-down vehicle” or “I rode the bus with these crazy people who were laughing at silly jokes in the back.” It just opens up conversation.15 ? If you can’t take their wine away, you should certainly try to take away their soapbox (讲台). If you’re the host, you can ask them to help you in the kitchen with something and just remove them from the situation. 16 .And what about that other dinner-party killer: awkward silence? If you’re faced with an awkward silence at a dinner party, the only thing that always gets everyone talking again is to give the host a compliment(赞扬). 17 . Just quickly turn around and say, “This cake is extremely delicious and you have to tell me all about it.”So being interesting at a dinner party isn’t that hard.A. How do you know the hostB. The first step is to go exploringC. If you ask the question “How did you get here?”D. Be prepared to have awkward conversations with strangersE. Or turn the conversation into a topic where they have little to sayF. What about that person who had too much to drink or won’t stop talkingG. He or she is the person who is feeling the weight of that awkwardness the most第三部分：语言运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共15小题：每小题1.5分，满分22.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。I seldom believe in luck, but I have really had a string of the bad kind lately.

They had two hands. He had one." It started when one boy teased him," said his mother, Judy. Her boy returned to their home with questions: Why am I different? Why me? Why?"He actually told us he was mad at his being born with such a defect," his mother said, “that was a huge blow to the heart.” Judy admitted she didn't know what to do at that point. How could she provide answers to her son's questions when she had never found those answers herself?A few weeks later, Judy came home from her job as a science teacher at a state school and turned on the TV to a news story about an eighth grader from Washington, lowa. Trashaun Willis, then 14,had become an Internet celebrity after posting videos of his slam dunks(灌篮), and, like John, he was missing most of his left arm. Judy called John in. He was silent, watching dunk after monstrous dunk.At the time, it seemed that watching Trashaun would simply be an inspiring moment for John---he'd see a thriving role model with a seemingly similar physical defect. And had it stayed just that, John would have been happy. Suddenly, an idea occurred to Judy. Why not reach out to the newspaper to help set up a meeting with Trashaun to build John's confidence?“It reassured me,” said Judy. “I know in my heart that everything's going to be OK. Trashaun has grown up to be a wonderful kid. And I know John is too."Trashaun did get serious with John. Finally, the boys met at Washington Middle School on a Saturday afternoon a couple of months later, in April 2017, and they instantly bonded.注意：续写词数应为150左右。The day was not spent on self-pity---it was really fun and unforgettable.                         After the meeting, John learned to accept his disability.
