While living and working in Karlstad University in Sweden, I was entrusted the challenging assignment of catsitting three 10-year olds for two weeks. At first, I was a bit perturbed. From all that I had heard about cats being selfish creatures. I wondered if I would ever be able to deliver the goods.

I had been asked to stay at the cat-owners’ place for the fortnight. The first day, all three, Mercedes, Mio and Casper, seemed to be suspicious of me. I fed them, disposed of their litter and got to work. Soon, however, they began to look forward to my returning, and would mew happiness hearing the key turn in the door-lock.

As our familiarity grew, I began to playfully bid goodnight to the cats, sometimes adding aloud in Swedish that I had to wake up at 7:00 a.m. I forgot to set the alarm on most nights, but faced no problems, because at exactly 7:00 a.m.—no exaggerations here—I would hear the sounds of gentle mewing and scratching outside my bedroom door.

Then, there was one evening, when I felt a bit under the weather. Sitting on the sofa, mentally worn out and physically exhausted, I stared blankly into space, when a gentle tapping landed on my cheek. I found Casper standing on the sofa’s armrest peering into my eyes. He seemed to be asking me to cheer up, switch off for the evening and look forward to a better tomorrow.

On the evenings of the last few days, all three cats began to rush over and sit close to me on the sofa and snooze (打盹) against my feet or on my lap. They knew perhaps that our time together was nearing its end and that they would not see me again. They all came over to the door, when I left the next morning with my things packed. They just stood there and mewed for a while, and as I walked around the street bend, they hopped on to the window watching me go.

4. What does the underlined word “perturbed” mean in the first paragraph?

A. Excited. B. Unwilling. C. Confident. D. Worried.

5. How did the author get familiar with the cats?

A. By taking care of them. B. By taking them out.

C. By cheering them up. D. By talking to them.

6. How did the author interpret Casper’s tapping?

A. The cat was asking to go out. B. The cat was playing with him.

C. The cat was trying to comfort him. D. The cat was reminding him of bedtime.

7. Which of the following best describes the relationship between the author and the cats?

A. Temporary. B. Complex. C. Casual. D. Close.

【答案】4. D    5. A    6. C    7. D

C

Efforts to preserve the Amazon rain forest are growing ever more urgent as the ecosystem’s destruction accelerates. A recent study shows that a new program combining on-the-ground monitoring with satellite data and smartphone technology could help put the brakes on Amazon deforestation (毁林)—and potentially that of forests elsewhere.

The scientists cooperated with 76 local communities, 36 of which participated in using satellite-based “early deforestation alerts”, an early-alert system on a smartphone app, to watch over the forest and to inspect forests and document damage. Over the next two years the participants were paid to work as forest monitors and received monthly alerts via the app when satellite data indicated local forest losses. Monitors investigated alerts and inspected for deforestation in the areas. They reported confirmed losses back to their communities, which decided whether to deal with the affairs on their own or inform state authorities.

The researchers analyzed the same forest-loss satellite data from the given time period in all 76 communities. They found the program reduced forest loss by 8.4 hectares (公顷) in the first year—a 52 percent reduction compared with the average loss in the control communities, says Tara Slough, an economist at New York University. “This reduction in deforestation was concentrated in communities facing the largest threat of forest loss”, she adds.

Results for the program were less striking in its second year, when forest loss was reduced by only 3.3 hectares compared with that in control communities. The researchers explain that a Peruvian government campaign against coca planting that year may have discouraged deforestation in both experimental and control communities, narrowing differences between the two groups in the program.

Experts say this approach to dealing with Amazonian deforestation looks promising. Local groups may continue the work they started in the program. “We want to apply this in other communities. In doing so, we are making a contribution to the world,” wrote Francisco, a community member involved in the research.

8. What can we learn about the new program?

A. It applies to all the forests. B. It adopts multiple technologies.

C. It involves no human participation. D. It solves the problem beforehand.

9. How did the researchers conduct the study?

A. By analyzing the data. B. By surveying the monitors.

C. By observing the area. D. By investigating the damage.

10. What do the researchers think of the effect of the program?

A. Stable. B. Positive. C. Unconvincing. D. Discouraging.

11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?

A. Amazon Protecting the Rainforest B. Experts Testing Early-alert System

C. Communities Dealing With Deforestation D. Smartphone Watching Over the Forest

【答案】8. B    9. A    10. B    11. D

Who do you count as your friends? From our BFF to a workmate, it’s good to have someone to draw the fat with or offer comfort and support. But the recent lockdown we have endured has made of us question our friendships. We’ve fallen out of touch with friends and acquaintances. But do we actually have to restart every relationship we once had? It might be time to take stock and think about who you kept in touch with, who you missed talking to, and who you didn’t. In short, maybe it’s time to reset your list of real mates.

There’s no obligation to stay friends. Bryan Lufkin says, “While people have known for years that friendships are unquestionably good for your health, experts say it’s only natural for acquaintances and even friends to fall by the wayside as time goes on.”

Of course, it can be hard to choose who’s in your friendship circle. This is what Suzanne Degges-White, professor of counselling at Northern Illinois University, calls our “friendscape”. She says. “In life, as we go through certain stages and ages, our attention shifts, and we want to be around people who are like us.”

So, changing friends is normal, but we still need those special pals who have known us long term. These are friendships we invest time in. These are your inner circle of friends—your “shoulders to cry on”—and you have to see them at least once a week to keep them in that circle. The friends that do drift are mostly “friendships of convenience”. But the advice for maintaining a good friendship is to share how you feel with someone you trust—this can help strengthen your friendship as well as giving you both a chance to support each other.

12. What could we do about friendships in the recent lockdown?

A. Recover our friendships. B. Reflect on our friendships.

C. Develop new friendships. D. Put an end to our friendships.

13. What do Bryan Lufkin’s words mean?

A. Some friendships will not necessarily stay for life.

B. Some friendships might not be good for our health.

C. True friendships will surely survive the long years.

D. True friendships develop naturally as time goes by.

14. Who would most probably stay in our friendship circle?

A. Friends at the same life stages. B. Friends with the same interests.

C. Friends always staying around. D. Friends living in neighboring areas.

15. What does the author suggest we do in the last paragraph?

A. Cry on our friends’ shoulders. B. Change inner circle friends.

C. Devote time to true friendships. D. Suit our friends’ conveniences.

【答案】12. B    13. A    14. B    15. C

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。

After the destructive winter, the chances are that your lawn will be looking as messy as a lockdown hairstyle.___16___

At the time, weeds will have undoubtedly moved into your beloved lawn. ___17___ There are plenty of weeding tools on the market, but we find that one of the best is a standard table knife. Be careful to remove as much of the root as possible. Some weeds can grow back from the smallest of pieces.

Moss will also most likely be growing in the damp areas of your garden. So grab a lawn rake (耙子) and pull the rake hard across any moss-infected areas. It’s a job you should have done back in October really. ___18___

For your first cut of the year, make sure you raise the cutting head on your lawn mower to its highest setting. Cutting your grass too close at this stage will weaken its roots and may lead to weedy problems later the year. ___19___Little and often tends to be the best policy for healthy grass.

___20___ You can use the technique known as “overseeding”, where grass seed is sown directly onto a lawn in spring or autumn. First off, choose the grass seed to match your existing lawn. Then sow your chosen grass seed, using the back of your seed packet to guide you on the amount needed per square meter. After that water your lawn using a can with a fine rose and keep off the area for a couple of weeks.

A. Remove any unwanted stuff.

B Spring is the time to take action.

C. Now comes the job of thickening the lawn.

D So your first lawn job should be to get rid of them.

E. But there will be no harm giving your lawn a once-over in spring.

F. Birds love moss which can help themselves to free soft furnishings.

G. It’s always good not to completely cut your lawn every time you mow.

第二节 读后续写（满分25分）

47. 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。

A long time ago, when I worked in Ahmedabad, we would often drive to Mount Abu for short trips—it took us anywhere between seven to eight hours to drive up. That year, my close relatives were visiting from Lucknow during the holidays, and we made a plan to visit Abu for three days. Since there were seven of us, including my brother’s family who also lived in Ahmedabad, we hired two cabs. We picked ourselves into the vehicles, stacked (堆放) our luggage on the carriers on top and started out.

A good time was bad by all, and soon it was time to return. During the journey back, we stopped at a Dhaba for tea and snacks near the Mehana district. That’s when I noticed suddenly that the rope with which the luggage was tied on and of the carriers had come loose and one of the suitcases was missing. It must have fallen off somewhere along the way.

Although it didn’t contain any valuables—just clothes and some cash we decided to retrace our steps, drawing back four kilometres, looking for the bag. But luck wasn’t our friend: we could not locate it and returned to Ahmedabad depressed.

After about a month, one day, while in my office, I got a call from my assistant that a certain Mr. Shah wanted to see me. I was in the middle of a meeting so he was asked to wait. After I got done, I called him into my office.

I was looking after the development of small industries in the state at the time, so my immediate query was. “How can we help you? Do you want to set up an industry or are you facing any issues in your enterprise?”

To which he said, “No, sir. I have not come for any official help. It is a personal matter. Did you lose something recently?”

Of course, it all came back to me and I told him about the lost suitcase from the cab back from Mount Abu a month ago.

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。

Then Shah told his side of the story.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

But the gentleman insisted on delivering the suitcase to me.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

【答案】     Then Shah told his side of the story. While driving home, he noticed a suitcase lying by the side of the road. He left a message at the Lost and Found, but no one approached him for the suitcase. About a month passed, he could do nothing but break open the lock and found my name and address inside. Words failed me to convey my thanks for his kindness and generosity. Of course, I mentioned that I would visit his residence in the evening and collect my bag.

But the gentleman insisted on delivering the suitcase to me. In the evening he and his wife came to my house with the suitcase. We chatted over tea. I thanked them again. It was not for the belongings but for the efforts they spared to find me. We remained in touch for quite some time afterwards, but somehow we lost touch with each other. Hats off to him, the man who makes me realize that kindness still rules the world.
