Laurie Horam never thought of himself as musical. At home, his dad never listened to music, while one of his boarding school teachers labelled him tone deaf. But last month he started to play the harmonica (口琴) on the streets of Bradford. People clapped, danced and threw coins into his case for the local food bank. Horam caught himself thinking: “How, at the age of 79, do I come to be playing music to people on the streets?"

The question preoccupied him, because, some years ago at a family gathering, Gavin, his eldest son, said:“You know what, Dad? It can't be coincidental. We must have got our musical abilities from you." Horam has three sons and they cover a range of instruments. He was surprised. “There can't be music in me, because I can't play!”he said.

Eight years ago, Horam, a retired civil servant, was on his way back from a trip with his family. Gavin stopped at a music shop. He walked out and said: “Here you are. I bought this for you, Dad. It's a harmonica. I'll try to show you how to play a bit."

They went to a session at their local pub. Gavin played the guitar and Horam sat in the corner with his harmonica, trying to make a sound that no one would hear. After six months, he was invited into the group. He discovered a talent for improvisation (即兴表演), responding to a note within a millisecond without batting an eyelid. “I don' t play by ear. I play by heart." Actually, Horam says: “My harmonica plays me- -how I feel what I am, what I've been.”

Music has enriched life with friendship and made Horam feel ‘'part of something much bigger” than himself.“At a time when the circle of life might be shrinking, mine is expanding," he says.“Maybe we never know completely who we are or what we can do."

24. Why did Horam play the harmonica on the streets of Bradford?

A. To recall the good old days.

B. To beg food from passers-by.

C. To live his childhood dream.

D. To collect money for charity.

25. What is Gavin's attitude to his father's musical ability?

A. Positive.

B. Disapproving.

C. Doubtful.

D. Unclear.

26. What does playing the harmonica allow Horam to do?

A. Enjoy the quiet.

B. Listen to his heart.

C. Express himself.

D. Sharpen his hearing.

27. What does music bring to Horam?

A. A lost soul.

B.A comfortable life.

C. A broader circle of life.

D. A new perception of family.

C

Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without mountains of wrapping paper covering the floor on 25 December. Or would it?

A rise in interest in crafting (手工艺), coupled with a greater awareness of the environment under lockdown, has led to an increase in interest in furoshiki- -the Japanese art of fabric wrapping- -this year.

Furoshiki are traditional Japanese cloths used to transport food, clothes or gifts. They are increasingly being accepted by shoppers as an alternative to paper. The clots are easy to use: gifts are placed in the centre of the fabric, which is then tucked (卷起) around the object and fastened with a knot (结).

Because fabric is so much more malleable (可塑的) than wrapping paper, it can be used to make even the most awkward - shaped gifts look professionally wrapped. The Covid-19 pandemic (大流行病) has brought the environment into a new focus for people, causing people all to make more environmentally conscious decisions around what we buy.

Part of the appeal of fabric wrapping is that it is a present in itself. The receiver can not only enjoy a beautifully wrapped gift but can then reuse the cloth to give a gift of their own.

Some customers use their cloth within family or friendship circles, so that it eventually makes its way back to them. There's a certain magic and tradition in passing it from person to person.

Then there's the rising interest in craft. Fabric wrapping is often handmade. Compared to standard wrapping paper, fabric wrapping offers more chances to experiment with different folding techniques and the way it lends itself to botanical decoration. There is a huge appetite for people wanting to learn new craft skills and perhaps create their own gifts for friends and family.

The practice of using furoshiki became widespread during Japan's Edo period (1603-1868), when people bundled (捆) their clothes in fabric while visiting public baths. The custom was generally the preserve of older people in Japan, but younger generations are getting on board as a result of the pandemic. They have started to reconsider their ways of life.

28. Which of the following can best describe furoshiki?

A. Sustainable.

B. Wasteful.

C. Complex to knot.

D. Awkward to carry.

29. What is the advantage of furoshiki over standard wrapping paper?

A. It has less human touch.

B. It improves gardening skills.

C. It stimulates appetite for food.

D. It offers more space for creativity.

30. Why does furoshiki begin to be accepted by younger people?

A. It has a long family tradition.

B. Pandemic promotes green rethink.

C. Public baths are gaining popularity.

D. It's their turn to preserve the custom.

31. What is the text mainly about?

A. The history of furoshiki.

B. The benefits of furoshiki.

C. Ways to wrap a gift with furoshiki.

D. Reasons for a growing interest in furoshiki.

D

Dozens of honey bees, which usually feed on wild flowers after leaving their hives (蜂房) in the campus gardens, were tricked into the cottage to feed from an artificial flower. Only one bee was allowed in at a time, and their visits to artificial flowers were videoed and timed under different fan speeds, which mimicked (模拟) calm and windy days.

But the researchers are trying to help them: it is a controlled experiment that reveals how high wind speeds significantly reduce the efficiency of their feeding.

With no wind, the bees on average took nectar (花蜜) from 5.45 flowers during their 90-second time trial. When wind speeds were increased, this fell to an average of 3.73 flowers.

Researchers also examined the indirect impact of higher winds by moving the flowers.

The findings reveal that, while flower movement did not appear to have an effect on the bees, the movement of air from the fans made them much more hesitant to take off from a flower, with time taken ranging from an initial 0.05 seconds to 54 seconds.

Georgia Hennessy, lead author of the research, said that one possible reason for the wind causing hesitancy was that small increases in wind speed reduced the bees' body temperature, so they require longer to warm up the flight muscles required to take off.

“With wind speeds predicted to increase in the years ahead, understanding how we can help bees in a changing climate is becoming ever more pressing. Although we can't do much to control or stop the wind, we can take steps to reduce its impact on bees, such as placing hives in sheltered locations, ”said Hennessy.

The UN's Food and Agriculture Organization warned last year that the decline in global bee populations was a "threat to global food security and diversity".

Dave Goulson, professor of biology all the University of Sussex, said:“Bees already face many pressures in the modern world, such as loss of habitats and exposure to pesticides(杀虫剂), and a great many are in decline. Coping with increasingly windy weather under climate change may be the final straw."

32. What task did the researchers set for the bees?

A. Identifying the new route.

B. Surviving in extreme conditions.

C. Feeding under different wind speeds.

D. Distinguishing various kinds of flowers.

33. What probably makes a bee hesitant to take off from a flower?

A. A full stomach.

B. Loss of balance.

C. Changed flower positions.

D. Reduced body temperature.

34. What can we do to reduce the impact of high winds on bees?

A. Stop the wind.

B. Restore their habitats.

C. Address climate change.

D. Prohibit the use of pesticides.

35. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Loss of bees causes failure of food crops

B. Bees are on the decline as global heating worsens

C. Bees may struggle in winds caused by global warming

D. Artificial flowers are used for threatened bee populations

Every day, a lot of people move house. With a newfound appreciation for space and air, it may suddenly have seemed as if a new kind of life was possible. 36 Here's some expert advice on how to build a new community.

37

Ask people you already know if they could introduce you to anyone in the location to which you are moving. Posting on social media is probably the easiest way to tap your friends’ friends. It increases the chance that there's someone you will get along with.

Don't expect friends to magically appear

38 really need to take the initiative to go out there and meet people and not assume that friends are just going to fall into their lives. As people become familiar to us, we like them more, and it's completely unconscious.

Be open to a broader range of people

You have spent a lifetime narrowing your social circle to those you really care about, but chances are you're not going to meet new best friends in your new area instantly. When it comes to friendships, having close friends is one of the best things we can do for our health and wellbeing. But even having brief interactions with people in general benefits us. 39

Don't despair

Remember to maintain pre-existing friendships, so that you're not feeling lonely and disconnected while developing new relationships. 40 But people don't realize that if they put themselves out there, the process can go faster than they think. It really makes a difference if you 're willing to attend different events; you can really change your social life.

A. Make a public appeal.

B. Put some work in before you move.

C. Quality is best, but quantity still does something.

D. It can take a long time to build up new friendships.

E. But now the pandemic has made it harder to connect with strangers.

F. It doesn't necessarily mean you made the wrong decision in moving.

G. We tend to think friendships happen naturally and that's a huge misconception.

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。

One afternoon after school, Mary and her brother, Keith, were eating at a cafe near their home. That afternoon, they had to share their table with another person. That person was a young lady in her twenties. After eating, she went to the restroom. Without realizing, she had left her handphone on the table. Five minutes later, she came out and walked out of the cafe without looking back.

Mary saw the handphone on the table. She quickly told Keith, "Keith, the girl left behind her handphone."

Keith looked at the handphone. It took his breath away. It was one of the latest models on the market. Keith had always wanted a handphone. But his parents had told him, “You don't need one. You can always use the house phone."

He stared at it for some minutes. Then he said slowly, pausing on every word, “I want to take the handphone."

Mary could not believe her ears. She merely stared at her brother. “You can't! What if the owner comes to look for it?"

Having made the decision, Keith quickly grabbed the handphone and put it in his schoolbag. Then, he took Mary's hand and led her out of the cafe quickly.

Once back home, Keith locked his house door with trembling hands. Inside his room, he took out the piece of beauty. Oh, he liked it so much. Now he had his own handphone. Soon, he was polishing it happily.

But Mary told him, "Keith, you cannot keep the handphone. What will you tell Father about this? He will ask you how you got the handphone.

Keith said quickly, "I will say a friend lent it to me.”

Mary said, “Now you are lying too." Oh dear! When had Keith turned so dishonest?

Then Mary saw a house phone number on the plastic cover of the handphone. "This is the girl's phone number. Why don't we just call this number? We will talk to her and ask her to come and take back her handphone." She was trying to talk some sense into 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。

That night, Keith turned over in bed from time to time.                                                                               

Mary was very happy to hear that.

Dear William,

Have you watched the Beijing Winter Olympic Games recently? I' m writing to share with you something exciting.

I was amazed at a lot of exciting moments, among which a freestyle skiing player's perfect skills and quick mind left the deepest impression on me. She was weaving through the snow with ease when suddenly she almost lost control. But in the blink of an eye, she stopped her skid and rocketed through the rest of her run.

Seeing this, I couldn't help wondering how she had been going to great lengths to give such

a fantastic performance.

Yours,

Li Hua

读后续写:

That night, Keith turned over in bed from time to time. He had difficulty sleeping, uncertain about what he should do. Of course, he liked the new handphone. However, he was feeling sorry for the owner. When he thought how sad the young lady would be at the loss of her handphone, he was full of guilt and shame. The next morning, after a long and restless night, he was determined to return the handphone to the owner. After school, he told Mary, “I am going to

phone the owner.”

Mary was very happy to hear that. Back home, they phoned the owner's house phone. A girl answered the phone. Kevin asked,' Are you the owner of the handphone? I' m Keith. I have your handphone. Can you come and get it?”The girl replied ‘Yes' excitedly, expressing her gratitude repeatedly. Ten minutes later, she was at the same cafe to meet Keith. Handing back the handphone to her and seeing her smile happily, Keith realized that honesty was indeed the best policy
