Eleven-year-old Allan Baltz of Jonesboro, Arkansas, is familiar with the foster (领养) care system. When he and his twin sister Alice were only four, they came to live with their foster parents Derek and Lesli Baltz.

Last fall when Allan got an opportunity to pay it forward, he made it count .

During the height of the 2021 shutdown, to keep their kids entertained at home, the family decided to switch up their hairstyles. Lesli dyed her hair red and Alice went blue. Derek tried out a mustache, and Allan went the craziest by growing out a long beautiful mullet (胭脂鱼发型).

When friends pushed Allan to enter the USA Mullet Championships competition, Allan initially wasn't interested because he thought he couldn't win. However, once he learned there was a cash prize, he changed his tune.

"He instantly was like 'Oh, OK. I can do it, and we'll give the money to kids in foster care'" Lesli said.“He didn't hesitate. He didn't say, I can get a bike, then give some money away.' It was just instant that he wanted to give it away."

After submitting his photo and following up with several weeks of campaigning, Allan took home the top prize in the kid's division with more than 25, 000 votes in his favor.

He split his winnings between two local foster care organizations, Together We Foster and Project Zero, but his impact went far beyond just the $2, 500 he donated. His giving heart inspired others to do the same, and he ended up raising an additional $4, 500 for the two organizations.

"People also started volunteering.. and donating," Lesli said.“A few people that we know decided to start fostering because of Allan's story. The way that people hear it and it inspires them to do something about the foster care crisis is really incredible." Lesli said she couldn't be prouder of Allan's heart for helping others and feels truly lucky to be his mom.

24. What do the underlined words “pay it forward" mean in paragraph 2?

A. Spend plenty of money.

B. Pass on love to others.

C. Pay for goods in advance. .

D. Win great popularity.

25. Why did Allan grow a mullet?

A. It was really a good way to have fun.

B. It was an extremely popular hairstyle.

C. It was required for the competition

D. It was the craziest thing he'd ever done.

26. Which of the following words would be used to describe Allan?

B. Selfless and open-minded.

C. Generous and kind -hearted.

D. Sensitive and sociable.

27. What was the influence of Allan's donation of prize money?

A. It led to the donation totaling $4, 500 in the end.

B. It inspired more people to get involved in foster care.

C. He helped to successfully solve foster care crisis.

D. He luckily won true love and admiration of Lesli.

Swimming is a wonderful thing for me- exercise, reflection and alone time. The only thing that can ruin a swim is when I shift my attention from my lane to what's happening in the lanes next to me. I can catch myself racing the person next to me, or comparing our strokes.

Comparison is actually not an emotion. Researchers explain that comparing the self with others, either intentionally or unintentionally, is a common social phenomenon.

Comparison is the desire for consistency from one side and competition from the other- -it's trying to be like everyone else, but better. When we compare ourselves with others, we are ranking around a specific collection of “alike things" . I'm not swimming against Katie Ledecky's times, I'm just interested in the stranger in the lane next to me. When we compare, we want to be the best of our group. It's not be yourself and respect others for being genuine, but to win. I want to swim the same workout as you, and beat you at it.

In general, however, social comparisons are not associated with life satisfaction or the positive emotions of love and joy but are associated with the negative emotions of fear, anger, shame and sadness.

Here's what makes all of this really tough: Many social psychologists consider social comparison something that happens to us. More often than not, we don't even know we're doing it. This lack of awareness can lead to us showing up in ways that are hurtful to ourselves and others.

So we get to choose how we're going to let it affect us. My new strategy is to look at the person in the lane next to me, and say to myself, as if I'm talking to them, “Have a great swim." That way, I acknowledge the inevitable and make a conscious decision to wish them well, and return to my swim. So far, it's working pretty well.

28. What do we know about comparison?

A. It is nothing but an emotion.

B. It is trying to be the true self.

C. It is to be different and be the best.

D. It is to ft in and meanwhile to win.

29. What may be the author's attitude to social comparison?

A. Critical.

B. Doubtful.

C. Indifferent.

D. Favorable.

30. What is the feature of social comparison in the eyes of many psychologists?

A. Its unavoidability.

B. Its emotional influence.

C. Its uncertainty.

D. Its cultural root.

31. Why is swimming frequently mentioned in the text?

A. To present a social perspective on a sport issue.

B. To use it as an example to support an opinion.

C. To describe the right process of solving a problem.

D. To show love for sports with a personal experience.

D

A race is on in solar engineering to create almost impossibly-thin, flexible solar panels. Stanford University researchers announced they have achieved record efficiencies in a promising class of new materials- -which can be thinner than a piece of paper.

According to the study published in the journal Nature Communications, it uses a new material called “transition metal dichalcogenides" (TMDs). They absorb incredibly high volumes of sunlight that reach their surface compared to other solar materials.

“Imagine an autonomous drone (无人机) that powers itself with a solar panel atop its wing that is less than six micrometers thick." said Koosha Nassiri Nazif, co-lead author of the study.

Slimming down is necessary because the king of solar materials, silicon, is much too heavy, large and rigid for applications where flexibility, lightweight and high power are important and excellent.

While TMDs hold great promise, research experiments to date have struggled to change more than 2% of the sunlight they absorb into electricity. But the scientists believe they could practically reach 27% efficiency with electrical improvements. That would be comparable with today's top solar panels, silicon included.

Nazif told Forbes that the new materials are great candidates for next-generation electronics and solar cells. Chipmakers like Intel and the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company are already considering TMDs for their future technology." They could be used in a variety of mobile applications, including self-powered wearable devices and sensors, as well as giving a boost to lightweight airplanes and electric cars.

The ultra-thinness does come with engineering challenges, primarily in mass production. When transferring such a layer of TMD to a flexible, supporting material, the TMD layer is frequently damaged.

But the team thinks it is possible to overcome these challenges. Should they succeed, it could change solar power as we know it.“Silicon makes up 95 percent of the solar market today.” Nazif told Forbes.“This is why we aren't seeing these applications for solar cells today; TMDs are going to change the landscape."

32. What is the biggest advantage of TMDs now?

A. They have the quality of remarkable thinness.

B. They can efficiently turn sunlight into energy.

C. They are comparable to top silicon panels.

D. They have excellent ability to reflect sunlight.

33. What does Nazif stress in paragraph 6?

A. The appeal of TMDs to chipmakers.

B. The expectation for future tech.

C. The wide applications of solar energy.

D. The future prospects of TMDs.

34. What can we expect of new solar panels in the future?

A. They could power all mobile devices.

B. They could be a competitive alternative.

C. They will revolutionize the energy market.

D. They will be produced on a large scale soon.

35. Which of the following is the best title of this passage?

A. Most Efficient Solar Panels Have Hit the Market.

B. Stanford Scientists Develop a New Green Material.

C. TMDs Could Be Used for Lightweight Solar Panels.

D. Challenges Are to Be Overcome to Promote TMDs.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

The best thing you can do for yourself is to try to be a better person- -and to consciously improve yourself and your life. Choosing to "be better” will not only make you feel better, but will also bring better people, opportunities, and possibilities into your life. Here are some ways to become a better person.

  36   Admit the good, the bad, and the ugly and embrace it. In order to improve as a person, you first have to be really aware of who you are and who you are not.

We are not saying that you should give superficial compliments (赞美)，we are saying that you should really compliment someone for something they do or who they are.  37  And this little gift will make a difference in their lives.

Surprise your friends, your partner, or your children. No matter how old we are, we all love surprises- -good ones, of course. And it doesn't have to be a big gesture, sometimes a simple message, card, or letter is enough. Be creative!

Creating something that other people can benefit from is priceless. Whether craft or business, whether blog or book, whether special food or an entire restaurant.   38   

  39   Give up bad habits and replace them with good ones. If you can't give up your bad habits right away, start small until you can really get rid of them.

Is there a person that hurt you in the past, and you still are mad at the person or don't talk to him or her?   40   Can we develop compassion in any form by dealing with it?

A. Lots of people want to feel valued.

B. One man's meat is another man's poison.

C. Smoking, gossiping, or judging- please don't!

D. Can we leave behind the pain or misunderstanding?

E. To become a better person, one must always be true to oneself.

F. Can you give a hand to people that you are not so familiar with?

G. Keep thinking about how you can add value to your community. .

What They Found Inside an Old Sofa Bought for $20 Was Life-Changing

In 2021, SUNY students Reese Werkhoven, Lara Russo, and Cally Guasti were living together in a small apartment. They decided to furnish their apartment.

The three had gone to a Salvation Army store to buy a sofa, and were forced to settle for an old, rather smelly specimen that none of them really liked, but was the only one that was affordable and would fit in their living room. That day, as they were testing out their new purchase, they noticed that something was making a crinkling noise inside the cushions (垫子). Upon further investigation, they discovered a few bubble-wrapped envelopes inside the sofa.

When they opened the envelopes, they were in shock. A large amount of cash was inside. As they continued to pick apart the piece of furniture, they discovered more and more money. Guasti said,“"Just when we thought we pulled out the last envelope, we'd find another $1, 000 a few minutes later."

After some time, the three roommates had unearthed a good $40, 000 in cash. The fantasies of what they could do with all this money started flowing immediately.

However, they were quickly brought back to reality when they saw that there was a woman's name on one of the envelopes. That was when the moral dilemma started- what to do? Keep the money for themselves, or try to find the owner?

The three consulted their parents for advice, and the next day, Werkhoven got a call from his mom. She had tracked down the mystery woman and found a phone number.

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。

Werkhoven called the number his mom had given him, and an elderly woman picked up.                                                                             

For 30 years, the money had remained safe inside the sofa.
