Lucy Hobbs came to the University of Wisconsin already knowing she wanted to study

nursing so she could make a positive difference in the lives of others.Once she was on campus, she realized she could make an even greater impact on her future patients by adding a second major (专业），one in Spanish.

“I was drawn to nursing because I want a career that will be fulfilling and will help me serve others,” says Hobbs. “I chose to add a major in Spanish because I love learning about other cultures, and I want to do something for those easily ignored populations in my nursing career."

In addition to her nursing and Spanish curriculum, Hobbs found multiple interesting ways to bring her majors together, including things like research and study abroad. Hobbs was part of a research project that is documenting the experiences of Spanish-speaking populations in western Wisconsin during Covid-19. The research team included students and teachers in languages, history and nursing.

In addition to her research,studying abroad was also helpful. She spent part of the spring 2020 semester studying in Costa Rica."This was my first time outside of the U.S.and I learned so much about Costa Rican culture," Hobbs says.

While she found many opportunities within her majors, Hobbs also had meaningful experiences on campus that were outside of nursing and Spanish. For example,she worked as a resident assistant in the dorms and is a member of the University Honors Program.

“All these experiences helped me to enhance my time on campus by giving me opportunities to meet amazing and inspiring individuals who I believe will remain lifetime friends,”

Hobbs says.“All these experiences also helped to shape how I think about the future."After she graduates in May,Hobbs will begin her nursing career working in the emergency room at UW Health's University Hospital in Madison.

24.What did Hobbs do after she entered university?

A. She realized her interest in nursing.

B. She decided to learn more besides her major.

C. She made a difference in others' lives.

D. She influenced her future patients greatly.

25. Why did Hobbs add a major in Spanish?

A. To help others with their Spanish.

B. To do research in various cultures.

C. To receive further education in Spain.

D. To provide nursing care for less focused people.

26.What is helpful in Hobbs's achieving her goals?

A.Going abroad to change her life.

B.Beginning her nursing career early.

C. Developing as many hobbies as she could.

D. Getting different experiences besides her study.

27.Which of the following best describes Hobbs?

A. Humorous.

B.Intelligent.

C.Hardworking.

D.Generous.

More than a year into the pandemic of Covid-19, many people have grown used to a new lock-down lifestyle:keeping indoors,exercising less and eating more. “All of these contribute to worsening gut(消化道）function,"says Christopher Andrews,the lead physician at the Calgary Gut Motility Center, adding that heartburn is on the rise.

Heartburn is the painful effect of the stomach's acid creeping into the esophagus（食管）。Diet is the greatest contributor: acidic foods such as grapefruits, hot sauce or coffee increase the amount of acid in your stomach, while chocolate, alcohol and high-fat foods result in loosened sphincter muscle. If that muscle weakens or is unable to close completely, stomach acid might arise,causing the heartburn. Spicy food can also increase uncomfortable feelings in the gut.

Heartburn occurs in bodies of all sizes, ages and genders, but researchers have found that overweight (超重的） people are two to three times more likely to experience frequent heartburn than those with a healthy weight. This may be because of the increased pressure on the gut,which can push stomach acid up. Changes in diet, such as the recent tendency for people to turn to comfort food in lock-down, can also lead to the problem.

Occasional heartburn isn't a problem, but experiences of frequent indigestion should push you to live a healthier life. According to a recent study of 9,000 heartburn patients, following a five-step health plan-maintaining a proper body weight, eating well, exercising, not smoking and limiting coffee or tea-can decrease symptoms (症状） by 40 per cent. Andrews also tells his patients to avoid eating close to bedtime, “If you lie down when your stomach is full, it's much easier for things to come up."

Though heartburn is currently on the rise, Andrews believes the increase is short-term. “Once life comes back to normal, I'm sure things will get better,” he says.

28.Which of the following is the main cause of heartburn?

A. Staying home.

B.The pandemic.

C.Unsuitable diet.

D.Less exercise.

29. What can we learn about heartburn from paragraph 3?

A. Overweight people are at greater risk.

B. Stomach upsets will lead to heartburn.

C.Comfort food can help improve the situation.

D. Stomach acid will put more pressure on the gut.

30. What's the writer's suggestion for relieving heartburn?

A. Getting enough sleep.

B.Saying no to tea.

C.Consuming less coffee.

D.Having a medical checkup.

31. What's the purpose of the text?

A. To inform us of a health problem.

B. To warn us of a worsening situation.

C. To recommend a way of losing weight.

D. To introduce a new lock-down lifestyle.

D

Teens who choose to spend time alone may know what's best for them,according to new research that suggests solitude(孤独） isn't a red flag for depression.

Most studies have confused solitude with loneliness or shyness, said Margarita Azmitia, lead researcher of the study. “There is a misunderstanding for kids who spend time alone. They're considered lacking in basic social skills, or called 'loners',” she said. “It's beneficial to know when you need to be alone and when you need to be with others. The key factor is choice.”

When teens and young adults choose to spend time alone, solitude can prove an opportunity for self-reflection, creative expression, or spiritual renewal. It can be challenging when solitude is imposed on them-when they choose to avoid social activities because they lack friends, feel awkward, experience social anxiety, or are being punished.

To tell the difference between these motivations,Azmitia developed a survey that asked people to rate their motivations for solitude on a four-point scale, presenting questions like, “I feel energetic when I spend time by myself,” and “I enjoy the quiet,” versus “I feel uncomfortable when I'm with others,” and “I regret things I say or do when I'm with others."

Those who seek solitude because they feel rejected or want to stay alone are at greater risk of social anxiety, loneliness, and depression, and they tend to have lower levels of identity development, and positive relationships with others. However, those who seek solitude for positive reasons, such as self-reflection or a desire for peace and quiet, face none of these risks.

“These results increase our awareness that being alone can be positive,” said Azmitia. “The question is how to be alone without feeling like we're missing out. For many people, solitude is like exercising a muscle they've never used. You have to develop it, and learn to use time alone to your benefit."

32. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?

A. Teenagers are likely to spend time alone.

B. Solitude is often confused with loneliness.

C. Kids who spend time alone lack social skills.

D. Alone time is more important than social time.

33. What does the underlined part in paragraph 3 most probably mean?

A. They want to reflect on themselves.

B. They have to punish others.

C.They want to develop creativity.

D. They have to face solitude.

34.How does the author illustrate the findings of the research in paragraph 5?

A. By giving examples.

B.By offering suggestions.

C.By sharing experiences.

D. By comparing results.

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

A. Solitude: a red flag

B.Loneliness: good or bad

C.To be alone or not

D.Loneliness,a popular choice

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。

Ever since he was a kid, Colin had taken great interest in hiking (远足）。 To celebrate

his 40th birthday, he planned to climb Mountain Sunshine.

The night before his journey, Colin filled his backpack with hiking poles, a homemade hamburger, and some other necessities. He drove off at 7 am the next day, his mountain bike in the trunk(后备箱）。When he was already on the way, he suddenly realized there was a possibility of bear attack.

About an hour later, he arrived at a camp and checked in.“Is there anything you need?”Vito,the camp manager, asked him.

“Bear spray(驱熊喷雾），”said Colin.

After finding a bottle, Vito offered him a ride. They trucked along a road until the forest got too thick. As Colin put his mountain bike against a bush so that he could recover it on the way back, Vito said, “I'll come for you if you're not back when the night falls." “Nothing to worry about,” Colin replied in a confident voice.

With the bear spray in one pocket,Colin started hiking.He marked his trail(足迹，踪迹）

and made lots of noise to drive away any curious animals.

Before he knew it, it was getting dark. Not wanting to get caught in the dark, and satisfied with what he'd finished that day, he started to climb down the mountain, and soon recovered his bike.

As he passed a marker showing 3 kilometers away from the camp, he suddenly stopped his bike-a bear stood in the middle of the narrow road,some hundred meters away. Knowing it could easily attack him if he sped up, Colin decided not to anger the bear.

注意：

1.写作词数应为150左右；

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

The animal came in his direction, closer and closer.

At that very moment, a truck stopped right in front of him.

The animal came in his direction,closer and closer. Hands shaking,Colin grabbed the hamburger out of his backpack, and threw it beside the bear, hoping it would attract the animal.

However,the bear just took one smell, and then turned back, walking on. With the distance getting so close,Colin took out the spray quickly and fired it at the bear. To his relief, it fell back, shaking its head.Seeing this,Colin rode toward the camp as quickly as he could.Sadly,a moment later.he heard the bear roaring and running after him.

At that very moment,a truck stopped right in front of him."Get in!" Someone shouted.It was Vito! Without any hesitation,Colin jumped off his bike and got into the truck,shutting the door just before  the bear caught him. So angry was the bear that it kept roaring and pushing the truck violently. After what seemed ages,it gave up,turned around, and disappeared into the woods, With his heart still in his throat. Colin hugged his life-saver and  thanked him again and again. Perhaps, he would never forget the  life-risking experience for the rest of his life.
