For some, it’s having access to fantastic restaurants, bars and shops. For others, it’s about great accommodation options, a small-town vibe or a historic atmosphere. Here are some wonderful ski towns in North America you can’t miss this year.Mammoth Lakes, California.A long ski season makes Mammoth Lakes especially appealing to skiers of all levels. Mammoth Lakes also offers plenty of options for off-mountain entertainment, whether you’re looking to indulge in theater and the arts, shopping local or planning a spa day.Banff, Alberta.Walk 15 minutes in just about any direction from the town of Banff and you’ll find yourself surrounded by the majestic wilderness of Banff National Park. The resort town and gateway to the surrounding park boasts a surprising number of shops, art galleries, bars and excellent restaurants for its size.North Conway, New Hampshire.Located within the scenic White Mountains of New Hampshire, North Conway sits within a half-hour drive of more than a dozen ski resorts. Off the slopes, visitors can explore the town’s unique Victorian buildings with New England charm. The Mount Washington Observatory Weather Discovery Center makes for an excellent rest-day diversion.Stowe, Vermont.Steepled churches and clapboard houses make Stowe a typical New England ski town, complete with excellent options for all kinds of skiers. While there are plenty of fine dining establishments and luxury resorts catering to well-heeled travelers, there’s a lively après scene as well, especially at The Matterhorn.

Waking up on the shore, I got up and began to clean the sand off me. My parents had been always drilling water safety into me and so I felt I should have known much better. But nearly drowning made me even more of a water baby. Growing up in South Africa, I have many fond summer memories associated with the water. However, when I moved to the UK in 2013, I realized how much I missed it. As life went on, working full-time in media and advertising, I realized I wanted to do something else. So much so, in 2016, I decided to train as a swimming teacher. I would work evenings and weekends, but eventually realized it was something I wanted to devote all my time to. I have been trained to teach a whole range of ages from three years old up to 77!This desire to help others went even further when, in October last year, I decided to swim the English Channel with the charity Swim Tayka. I first knew about the charity back in 2019 after searching Google for volunteering projects, and I was really inspired by the work they did in providing disadvantaged children with swimming lessons and drowning prevention education. “Why did you sign up for the challenge?” one of the charity workers asked me. Sitting down one evening, I really thought about why I wanted to do this and I remembered the incident that happened when I was a child. I just want to help people love and respect the water in the same way I do. Watching by the pool side as my students splash (溅) about care-free, I smile proudly. It really does make all the difference knowing you’re helping others and I encourage people to take up the challenge.4. How does the author feel about his drowning experience?A. Amazing.  B. Beneficial.   C. Destructive.  D. Embarrassing.5. Why did the author move to the UK in 2013?A. To teach all-age people to swim.   B. To further study swimming skills.C. To escape from childhood memories.  D. To be engaged in media and advertising.6. How was the author informed of Swim Tayka?A. By inquiring volunteers.     B. By overhearing a project.C. By googling for information.    D. By crossing the English Channel.7. What is the root motivation for the author to take up the challenge?A. His deep love for swimming.B. The drowning incident in childhood.C. The education he received in the training.D. His determination to improve people’s well-being. CThe next time you find yourself in nature, away from the crowded urban environment, take a deep breath of the fresh and clean air. That refreshing breath is made possible by the trees around you.Today, our cars and machines fill the air with carbon emissions. But scientists imagine a future, where vehicles will clean the air as efficiently as trees do. Euro News reports that the electric car, designed by Dutch students at the Eindhoven University of Technology, is capable of removing a small amount of carbon from the air.The car’s sporty frame is nearly entirely composed of recycled plastics run through a 3D-printer and the engine is powered by an electric lithium-ion (锂离子) battery. By using 3D printing, the team could produce parts in the exact shape needed, with very little waste. Since nearly 2 billion tires end up in the trash yearly, the students also teamed up with Black Bear Carbon to source recycled black carbon for the tires. Moreover, solar panels fitted to the car’s roof allow it to act as an external solar power source for a house.According to Reuters, electric vehicles produce near-zero CO2 emissions as they drive. The drawback of these batteries, however, is that the process needed to create the battery cells for electric cars is still highly polluting. To offset the harmful effect of creating the lithium-ion batteries, the team fitted the car with two filters (过滤器), which can capture two kilograms of CO2 every 18,000 miles or so. That might not sound like a lot, but the team is confident they can make sure the two filters will capture more CO2.The team is now on tour in the US to promote their model, which they call ZEM for Zero-Emission Mobility, and to share their vision for the future. They picture electric car charging stations also fitted with the capacity to empty CO2. “Our end goal is to create a more sustainable future,” said Jens Lahaijie, a member of the team that produced the car.8. What can we know about the electric car?A. It is a completely 3D printed product.  B. Its design is environmentally-friendly.C. It is still dependent on traditional fuels.  D. Its task is to protect trees in urban areas.9. What will the Dutch students do with their electric car?A. Equip it with more filters and solar panels.B. Increase its driving speed in a short time.C. Reduce its dependence on lithium-ion batteries.D. Improve its filters’ capability of capturing CO2.10. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The electric car hasn’t come to market in the US.B. Electric car charging stations are common.C. The future of electric cars turns out uncertain.D. The electric car model has won great favor.11. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?A. Carbon Capture Technology Is Used  B. Eco-friendly Cars Are in Great NeedC. An Electric Car Helps to Clean the Air  D. A Sustainable Future Is Shared Together DPeople are looking to make meaning after the global pandemic. And one way that some of us do this is to credit coincidences―the unexpected concurrence (同时发生) of events―with helping to find jobs, friends and spouses, make significant career decisions and relieve pains. Scholars disagree on the cause of coincidences. Some say they are random and due to probability. Others see God or spiritual forces at work. Still others say it’s our subconscious making connections. No matter the cause, people who study coincidences say that paying attention to these moments may help us, especially in times of stress.Studies show that noticing coincidences may help boost both the effectiveness of psychotherapy and mental well-being. Michael Schauch, 42, an investment-portfolio manager in Squamish, British Columbia, who is an avid mountaineer, lost his best friend Brent last year. A few months later, Mr. Schauch climbed a mountain he and Brent often scaled together. At the summit, Mr. Schauch found hundreds of ladybugs. When he climbed a different mountain on the anniversary of Brent’s death, he saw a ladybug as he started up each new section of the rock face. “I knew at once that it was Brent, and that he was still there with me, as if to say: ‘You’ve got this, Mike. Keep going!’” he says.Coincidences can make the world feel like it makes good sense, says David B. Yaden, an assistant professor at the Johns Hopkins University School. Varieties of spiritual experiences show a correlation (关联) between coincidences and an increase in positive emotions, better personal relationships and a greater sense of meaning in life.Coincidences are more likely to happen to certain people. “People who are troubled by distress and searching for signs are more likely to experience coincidences,” says Bemard Beitman, a psychiatrist and a coincidence researcher. If you’d like to enhance your ability to notice coincidences, there are several strategies, says Lisa Miller, a clinical psychologist: Be open to them. Write them down. Talk about them with others. “We really need this deep inner wisdom.” she says.12. What can we learn about coincidences from paragraph 1?A. They happen as expected.    B. They provide guidance or relief.C. They activate subconscious mind.   D. They contribute to invisible forces.13. Why does the author mention Michael Schalch’s story?A. To clarify the cause of coincidences.B. To offer a method of coping with grief.C. To show the comforting effect of coincidences.D. To present a solid friendship between two climbers.14. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Lucky people tend to be surprised by coincidences.B. Wisdom is to the soul what mental health is to the body.C. Coincidences mean more to our daily lives than the surface.D. The more we cultivate coincidences, the more likely they happen.15. What is the passage mainly about?A. The meaningful moments in life.   B. The hidden power of coincidences.C. The various opinions on coincidences.  D. The strategies for noticing coincidences. 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。When we’re bored, most of us end up being glued to a phone.

He says I’m too little. But I really want to help the family,” said Guyo. “You can help me get honey,” said Grandfather. Guyo’s face lit up. His grandfather smiled, “We’ll gather honey the way our village has gathered honey for years.” He opened his hand. It held a whistle (口哨). “What’s that, Grandfather?” “It’s a honeyguide whistle. When we use it, a honeyguide will come and lead us to a hidden honeycomb (蜂巢)”. He handed Guyo the whistle. “Call one.”Guyo blew the whistle hard, creating a beautiful sound. Before long, a gray-brown bird flew to a nearby branch. She called many times. Once she had the attention of Grandfather and Guyo, she flew off toward the west. Guyo was eager to follow. His grandfather picked up a container and said, “Let’s go.” They hurried through the dry brush, always keeping the honeyguide being viewed. “Why do honeyguides help us?” Guyo asked. “They are experts in finding honeycombs. But because they’re small, bee stings (蜇伤) would kill them. They need our help to get what’s inside the honeycomb.” Guyo and his grandfather followed the bird for half an hour. Finally, the honeyguide flew toward a hole in a mud wall. “We’re here,” said Grandfather. Guyo’s heart beat faster and faster as they approached the hole. A group of angry bees guarded the entrance, making much noise.Grandfather gathered some small sticks. “Help me build a fire in front of the hole. The smoke will calm the bees.” When the smoke approached the bees, the noise disappeared. Grandfather tried to push his hand into the hole, but it wouldn’t fit. He said to Guyo, “You should be able to reach the honeycomb.” Guyo was afraid. What if the bees stung him? He looked at his grandfather. He couldn’t disappoint him.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。    Guyo took a deep breath and stretched out his arm.      Grandfather put most of the honeycomb inside his container.
