Welcoming New Lifestyles

Hygge has been popular in the UK for over a year.It means to create a relaxed and comfortable mood.It can be felt by relaxing activities like chatting with friends.Besides，hygge is also abut learning to be happy with simple things.This really resonated （共鸣）with me.I feel stressed at home because my small flat is packed with much stuff.I decide to throw the things that don't hold memories.Doing this would help me feel hygge.


Last year，lagom，a Swedish word meaning "just the right amount"，became popular.Lagom is about seeking a balance of work and life.It's also about living more sustainably （可持续地） by saving more energy，creating less waste and recycling more.Next year，I won't have to replace things so often.Plus，I keep thinking about recycling and hoping to save as much money as possible.So，I can get on board with lagom.


Coming from Japan，wabi sabi is about finding beauty in imperfection.Wabi refers to the failings in the production process，which makes an object special.Sabi describes the beauty that comes with age.The tradition of wabi sabi can offer a new way to view our homes.I am a perfectionist and I keep my home tidy.But now，my girls put their toys everywhere.So，I have to see the mess and accept the imperfections.

In the Japanese concept，ikigai means "a reason for being"，which can bring satisfaction and meaning to life.Many people believe ikigai can be found at what you are good at and what you love doing.For me，it is blogging.This year I can do more writing tasks that interest me.And if I notice the things that bring me no joy，I can stay away from them in the future.Hopefully，this will
help me to lead a more meaningful life.

Although growing up in a poor family in post﹣war 1950s，Gloria Stewart remembers her poor but kindhearted parents always had an extra setting at their table，especially at Christmas.
The warmth of her mum and dad's welcome for poor guests at the coldest time of the year inspired the 69﹣year﹣old grandmother to spread her own seasonal joy. "Mum and dad hadn't even got a penny，" recalls Gloria. "But it didn't matter.They'd never turn down any homeless one who knocked on the door."
"When I became a mum，I tried to make the festive season as special as possible.However，I once met an old lady who was spending Christmas alone in bed.It broke my heart."
In December 2007，Gloria hosted the first Home Alone lunch after advertising to the public and receiving donations.It took a special person with a big heart and an even bigger table to invite 87 lonely old people for Christmas.Her Home Alone event has lasted up to now.
Every Christmas，Gloria wears her most sparkly dress to serve the traditional roast to every table of her smiling，grateful guests，making time to speak to as many of them as possible.After her first lunch，Gloria was nicknamed Mrs.Christmas.And now she has written a book about her extraordinary life helping bring joy to the elderly who would normally spend Christmas alone.
She wrote in her book，"When I was a child，I had few friends and I was laughed at for being so poor.So I was determined no one else should bear the loneliness and hardship I had suffered." Having battled cancer three times，Gloria became even more determined to make sure Christmas was not clouded by sadness.
Now the Home Alone event has grown to serving turkey lunch to over 500 happy guests.The kind lady received an award from Sheffield City Council for her efforts and was praised by former Prime Minister David Cameron.
But for Gloria，the real prize comes as she watches the smiles light up the faces of her lunch guests.She says，"There really is no greater reward.Just for a few hours they escape their loneliness and are surrounded by love."

As college sports continue to be hugely popular and the National Collegiate Athletic Association （NCAA） brings in large amounts of money，people have restarted the debate on whether college athletes should get paid.
Supporters of the idea believe that，because college athletes are bringing in audiences，they should receive some sort of compensation（补偿）.In fact，the NCAA brings in about ＄1 billion income a year，but college athletes don't receive any of that money in the form of a paycheck.Additionally，people who believe college athletes should be paid state that paying college athletes will actually encourage them to remain in college longer and not turn professionals as quickly，either by giving them a way to begin earning money in college or requiring them to sign a contract（合同）saying they'll stay at the university for a certain number of years while making an agreed﹣upon salary.
People who argue against the idea of paying college athletes believe the practice could be disastrous for college sports.Paying athletes would turn college sports into a bidding（竞拍）war，where only the richest schools could afford top athletes，and most schools would be shut out from developing a talented team.It could also harm the camaraderie within many college teams if players become unhappy that certain teammates are making more money than they are.
Those against paying college athletes also believe that the athletes are receiving enough benefits already.The top athletes receive scholarships that are worth tens of thousands per year.They receive free food and textbooks，get travel bonuses and free equipment，and can use their time in college as a way to attract the attention of professional coaches.No other college students receive anywhere near as much from their schools.
While both sides have good points，it's clear that the negatives of paying college athletes far outweigh the positives.College athletes have been compensated enough.Adding a salary would result in a college athletic system where only a few athletes are paid by some schools who enter bidding wars to sign them up，while most student athletics and college athletic programs suffer or even shut down for lack of money.Continuing to offer the present benefits to student athletes makes it possible for as many people to benefit from and enjoy college sports as possible.

（1）It can be learned from Paragraph 2 that college athletes 　 　.
A.have earned what they are promised
B.tend to serve college longer when paid
C.should sign a contract to make an agreed﹣upon salary
D.prefer to stay at university rather than turn professionals
（2）The underlined word "camaraderie" in Paragraph 3 is similar to " 　 　".
A.friendship
B.competition
C.spirit
D.communication
（3）People against paying college athletes believe 　 　.
A.schools would be unable to afford it
B.it could be harmful to college sports
C.no other college students receive benefits
D.students would value payments over achievements
（4）What is the author's attitude towards paying college athletes？ 　 　
A.Uncertain.
B.Satisfied.
C.Unsupportive.
D.Expectant.

第二节 （共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，共 10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将 该项涂黑，选项中有两项为多余选项。
17．（10分）
When people hear the word "rat"，they may think of dirty animals that spread diseases.And if you are an English learner，you may also connect the word rat with bad expressions.For example，calling someone a rat is a big insult （侮辱） and "rat race" describes a joyless，hurried way of living.（1）　 　
However，the rat trainers at the nonprofit organization，APOPO，see these animals very differently.（2）　 　
Based in Tanzania，APOPO trains a kind of rats to find landmines（地雷）.And the rats with their extraordinary sense of smell are very good at the job.APOPO calls their animal team Hero Rats.
Ellie Cutright is an APOPO trainer from Charleston，South Carolina.The researcher shared her very high opinions of rats in a discussion with VOA.（3）　 　"Everybody should know that these rats aren't stupid.They're not terrible animals.They're really intelligent and they can be trained to do some amazing things."
Human beings have used metal﹣searching devices to do this work for years.But rats—it turns out—do it better.And they also cost less money.
（4）　 　 "When the rats are working in the field and they find a landmine，they scratch（挠）on the ground and that's how we know.We place a little marker there，and then we can go safely to remove those landmines and get rid of them." Once trained，the rats can work in minefields in Tanzania and other countries around the world.
（5）　 　However，they still do not weigh enough to cause a landmine to explode.Cutright praises the impact of their work. "I think the work that APOPO does is really important in kind of spreading the word that rats are not just a pest.They really are heroes and they show us every day that they are worthy of that name."

A.So，rats generally are not beloved animals either in life or in the English language.
B.Worldwide there are 110 million hidden landmines left over from wars.
C.A rat is an animal that looks like a large mouse with a long tail.
D.She wants everyone to know how useful these animals are.
E.This kind of rats are large compared to other kinds of rats.
F.Cutright explains how the search process （过程） works.
G.They consider rats "lifesavers".

（3）B．细节理解题。根据第三段第一句"People who argue against the idea of paying college athletes believe the practice could be disastrous for college sports. （反对向大学运动员付费的人认为这种做法可能会给大学体育带来灾难）"可知，持反对意见的人们认为给大学运动员支付薪酬会对大学体育造成损害。故选B。
（4）C．观点态度题。根据最后一段第一句"While both sides have good points，it's clear that the negatives of paying college athletes far outweigh the positives.（尽管双方都有各自的道理，但显然，给大学运动员发工资的负面影响远远大于正面影响）"可知，作者认为负面影响大于正面影响，也就是说作者不支持给大学运动员发工资。A.Uncertain.不确定的；B.Satisfied.满意的；C.Unsupportive.不支持的；D.Expectant.期待的。故选C。

17．【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。介绍了一种被训练成为排雷能手的老鼠。
【解答】（1）A．联系上文题。前文"When people hear the word "rat"，they may think of dirty animals that spread diseases.And if you are an English learner，you may also connect the word rat with bad expressions.（当人们听到"老鼠"这个词时，他们可能会想到传播疾病的肮脏动物。如果你是一个英语学习者，你也可能会把rat这个词和不好的表达联系起来）"介绍了rat在生活和语言中都有不好的名声，A项"So，rats generally are not beloved animals either in life or in the English language.（因此，无论是在生活中还是在英语中，老鼠通常都不是受人喜爱的动物）"是对前文的总结。故选A。
（2）G．联系上文题。根据前文"However，the rat trainers at the nonprofit organization，APOPO，see these animals very differently.（然而，非营利组织APOPO的老鼠训练员对这些动物的看法却大不相同）"可知，APOPO的训练员们不认为老鼠是不好的动物，G项"They consider rats "lifesavers"（他们视老鼠为"救星"）"进一步阐述他们对老鼠的看法，承接上文。故选G。
（3）D．联系下文题。后文Cutright所说的话"Everybody should know that these rats aren't stupid.They're not terrible animals.They're really intelligent and they can be trained to do some amazing things.（每个人都应该知道这些老鼠并不愚蠢。它们不是可怕的动物。它们真的很聪明，可以训练它们做一些令人惊奇的事情）"是对D项"She wants everyone to know how useful these animals are.（她想让每个人都知道这些动物是多么有帮助）"的解释和延伸。故选D。
（4）F．逻辑判断题。根据后文"When the rats are working in the field and they find a landmine，they scratch （挠） on the ground and that's how we know.We place a little marker there，and then we can go safely to remove those landmines and get rid of them.（当老鼠在野外工作时，它们发现了地雷，就会在地上抓挠，这样我们就知道了。我们在那里放置一个小标记，然后就可以安全地移除这些地雷）"可知，这里通过Cutright的叙述详细地描述了老鼠排雷工作的过程，F项"Cutright explains how the search process （过程） works.（Cutright解释了搜索过程是怎么进行的）"放在段首，引出下文。故选F。
（5）E．推理判断题。根据后文"However，they still do not weigh enough to cause a landmine to explode.（然而，它们的重量仍然不足以引爆地雷）"可知，这一句与设空处是转折关系，E项"This kind of rats are large compared to other kinds of rats.（这种老鼠比其他种类的老鼠大）"符合句意上的转折。故选E。
