Jack Andraka was 15 when he came up with an idea for a new way to test for pancreatic (胰腺) cancer. When Andraka was 14, a family friend died of the disease, and this affected him deeply. This kind of cancer is particularly serious because there is no test you can have done to find it in the early stages. By the time standard tests determine you have the disease, it is often too late. Realizing that this was the case, Andraka decided to try to develop a test that might catch problems at the earliest stages.
The road ahead looked difficult for Andraka. He was still a high school student, and he wanted to create something that no one else had done. But Andraka read endlessly about the disease, wrote a proposal for his idea, and sent it out to 200 cancer researchers. Only one professor, Dr. Anirban Maitra, responded positively. Dr. Maitra agreed to work with Andraka on his idea, giving him guidance and access to a laboratory.
The next big reward for Andraka’s perseverance was winning the grand prize at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. This great award is given to young innovators who have developed a world-changing idea. Developing the test is likely to take many years, but Andraka hopes the test will eventually improve people’s lives and maybe save them.
Jack Andraka is not alone as a young innovator. After all, there were 1,499 other contestants for the Intel award, and all of them had ground-breaking ideas. For Andraka, having a family that loves science and encourages creative thinking gave him an advantage. But the key for Andraka is that reading, research, and discovery are just plain fun, and the chance to improve the world around him in the process makes it even better.
24. Why did Andraka decide to develop a test for pancreatic cancer?
A. His friend’s encouragement. B. An upsetting experience.
C. His extensive reading. D. An important test.
25. What difficulty did Andraka meet at the beginning of his research?
A. Lack of positive replies from experts.
B. Heavy pressure from his schoolwork.
C. Little access to research equipment.
D. Great need of money to develop a test.
26. Which of the following leads to Andraka’s award winning?
A. The competition with other contestants. B. His passion for success.
C. The support from his family. D. His continuous efforts for discovery.
27. What can we learn from Andraka’s story?
A. Practice makes perfect. B. Hard work leads to success.
C. One good turn deserves another. D. Failure is the mother of success.
C
Depending on the topic, people’s opinions can change from moment to moment or last a lifetime. The factors that make one opinion long-lasting and another short-lived, however, are not always clear.
Past studies have shown that opinions based on hard facts and data can remain constant over time, but new research published in the journal Psychological Science finds that opinions based on feelings and emotions can also stand the test of time.
As part of their study, the researchers asked more than 1,000 people to what degree they believed opinions based on feelings or emotional reactions were more stable over time than those based on thinking and reasoned analysis. Only 15% expressed any belief that opinions based on emotion would be more stable over time.
To test the role that emotion plays in forming long-lasting opinions, the researchers conducted seven independent studies involving more than 20,000 participants in various real-world situations.
The first survey, which was conducted the day after Christmas, measured feelings about recently received gifts. The participants were given a list of adjectives to describe their opinions toward their gifts. Adjectives like “worthwhile” were associated with a practical reaction to the gift, while words like “delightful” were more strongly associated with an emotional reaction. One month later, the participants completed a follow-up survey to test the endurance(持久性) of their opinions. The results showed that the stronger the positive emotional reaction, the more likely that opinion remained fixed one month later.
In the final test, participants read one of two messages about an imaginary sea animal. One message contained broad-ranging facts about the animal (low-emotion condition). The other message was about a swimmer’s underwater interaction with the animal (high-emotion condition). The participants in the high-emotion condition showed significantly less change in their opinions across time.
“Emotionality is an unrecognized predictor (预测因子) of long-lasting opinions,” said Andrew Luttrell, a researcher at Ball State University. “These findings are important for understanding why some opinions are so difficult to change as well as how to create opinions that stick.”
28. What did the survey of 1000 people show?
A. Creating long-lasting opinions was a long process.
B. Opinions based on hard facts could stand the test of time.
C. The role of emotion was not recognized by most of the people.
D. Only a small percentage of people dared to express their opinions.
29. Which statement will lead to a long-lasting opinion according to the research?
A. The car is safe. B. The movie is boring.
C. The book is valuable. D. The speech is exciting.
30. Which is true about the findings of the research?
A. They have been concluded from hard facts.
B. They have been used to prove other predictors.
C. They help understand the endurance of opinions.
D. They have something to do with creative opinions.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Emotion varies based on different facts B. Emotion can help clarify the opinions
C. Opinions can last when based on emotion D. Opinions once formed are hard to change
D
Coffee chains create a lot of waste, from disposable takeaway cups to the used coffee grounds(咖啡渣) that are sent to landfills. Starbucks has started to try recyclable alternatives to the disposable cups. But the used coffee is often unnoticed.
The world drinks around 2 billion cups of coffee a day, producing 6 million tons of used grounds every year. When they go to landfills, the grounds release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, contributing to global warming.
U.K. Bio-bean has found a way to turn that waste into valuable resources. At Bio-bean, used coffee grounds are processed to remove paper cups or plastic bags, and then passed through a dryer and a further screening process. They are finally processed into the fuel, Coffee Log.
“Coffee is highly calorific and lends itself to being a really fantastic fuel,” says George May, director of Bio-bean. “Coffee Log burns about 20% hotter and 20% longer than wood logs do.”
While the fuel releases greenhouse gases when burned, if it replaces other carbon-based fuels, Bio-bean estimates that the recycling process reduces emissions by 80% compared with sending the grounds to landfills.
Founded in 2013, Bio-bean grew rapidly, launching coffee collection services across the U.K. and building the world’s first coffee recycling factory only two years later. In 2016, they launched their first product, Coffee Log, and in 2019 their first natural flavor ingredient into the food and drink industry.
“We’ve really managed to succeed with our innovation（创新）because we’ve managed to get to scale—the service of our company is in larger demand. What started as a good idea is today the U.K.’s largest recycling plant of coffee grounds. We are turning 7 ,000 tons of those grounds per year into the fuel,” says May. “Despite being delayed by the COVID-19, we plan to expand our operation into northwestern Europe within the next five years.”
32. What do the first two paragraphs suggest?
A. It’s necessary to ban coffee consumption.
B. Drinking coffee is increasingly popular around the world.
C. Measures should be taken to recycle coffee waste.
D. Coffee grounds are the only cause of global warming.
33. What is the Bio-bean’s Coffee Log?
A. A solid fuel. B. A natural food. C. A cup of hot coffee. D. A tree trunk.
34. What do we know about Bio-bean after it was founded?
A. It is a high-tech company with a long history.
B. It is a promising recycling plant of coffee grounds.
C. It is started to produce coffee and fuels.
D. It is developing faster than Starbucks.
35. What does the underlined phrase “get to scale” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Measure accurately. B. Cover a wide range.
C. Classify different resources. D. Go into mass production.

Everyone wants to be happy every day, but sometimes we come across some problems which make us feel bad. There are a few ways that we can use to help ourselves to be happier every day.
36
When looking at your goals, remember to look at how far you have come towards achieving them. When you measure yourself against your goals, you will always have a negative feeling. When you measure yourself against where you started, you will be recognizing your achievements, and those deserve to be celebrated.
Make gratitude lists.
Expressing your appreciation for what you have is an important happiness strategy. 37 If you’re having trouble thinking of things, you may be thinking too small. You need to widen your view. You can think about nature: the trees, the sun and the sound of a running stream. You can also think about people: family and friends with whom you are grateful to have a relationship. 38
Help other people.
There are many benefits that come from helping others, whether helping someone you know or volunteering for a community. 39 Studies have shown that people who volunteer live longer. Volunteering is also a great tool in the fight against depression because it’s easier to temporarily forget your problems when you turn your attention to the needs of others. 40
Use these tips in all areas of your life, and you will have a happier life!
A. You’ve probably heard this before.
B. We all have much to be grateful for.
C. Besides, it’s an extremely pleasing activity.
D. It’s one that is worth doing on a daily basis.
E. Measure your progress not your distance to the goal.
F. Be sure to make it a daily practice to celebrate your achievements.
G. Volunteering proves to be good for your health and your happiness.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
There Are No Vans
To me, what Thanksgiving really means is giving good thanks, not eating turkey. By the time I was 18 I had created my Thanksgiving ritual (惯例). I would go out shopping and buy enough food for one or two families. Then I would dress like a delivery boy, go to the poorest neighborhood and just knock on a door, and would always include a note saying “All that I ask in return is that you take good enough care of yourself so that someday you can do the same thing for someone else.” I have received more from this annual ritual than I have from any amount of money I’ve ever earned, especially one such experience in New York City.
Several years ago I was in New York City with my newly married wife during Thanksgiving. She was sad because we were not with our family. Normally she would be home decorating the house for Christmas, but we were stuck here in a hotel room. I said, “Honey, look, why don’t we decorate some lives today instead of some trees?” When I told her what I always do on Thanksgiving, she got excited. I said, “Let’s go someplace where we can really appreciate who we are, what we are able to do and what we can really give. Let’s go to the poor neighborhood Harlem and feed some people there in need. We’ll go buy enough food for six or seven families for 30 days. We’ve got enough. Let’s go do it!”
We started by getting a van (货车), but there seemed no vans in all of New York City. The rent-a-car places were all out of vans. My wife was disappointed, and I said, “Look, the bottom line is that if we want something, we can make it happen! All we have to do is take action. There are plenty of vans here in New York City. Look down at the street. Do you see all those vans? Let’s go get one!” My wife agreed and we took action.
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。
We tried stopping vans as they were driving down the street. 


Eventually a van drove up and the driver said yes.

Dear fellow students,
I’m writing to appeal to everyone to participate in our summer program Care for the Aged.
The Internet and digital devices cause many conveniences for young people, but troubles for aged citizens with little knowledge of them. To help them, we will organize volunteers to visit communities to teach them how to use smart phones and surf the Internet. It will raise their life quality and make a difference to the whole society.
We need your help. Please sign up at the office of the Students’ Union or write an e-mail to Students Union@abc.cn. Your participation will be highly appreciated.

第二节（满分25分）
A possible version:
We tried stopping vans as they were driving down the street. I learned something about New York drivers that day: They don’t stop; they speed up. Then we tried waiting by the light. We’d go over, knock on the window and the driver would roll it down, looking at us in alarm, and I’d ask if he would drive us to Harlem so we could help some people. Every time the driver would look away quickly, furiously roll up the window and pull away without saying anything. My wife was ready to give up, but I said, “It’s the law of averages: somebody is going to say yes.”
Eventually a van drove up and the driver said yes. We were wild with joy and climbed onto the van. Upon arrival, he led us to a store where we bought lots of food and some baskets. Together we packed them up, carried them onto the van and went to buildings where there were even people living without electricity. It was a truly fulfilling experience to make even a small difference. You see, you can make anything happen if you commit to it and take action. Miracles like this happen every day—even in a city where “there are no vans.”
