One of the best advantages of technological advancements is the fact that it has given us so much more freedom in the way we work. That so many jobs can be done remotely means you can travel and work from anywhere you want in the world. Here are some of the best cities to live and work in.
Tallinn, Estonia
Often overlooked as a tourist destination, Tallinn has become known as Europe’s next Silicon Valley. Not only that, it is absolutely amazing. The Old Town has been named as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is full of Gothic architecture and lots of historical landmarks.

Lisbon, Portugal

The dog Pooch Chi Chi managed to open the door and let a fire crew in after his owner collapsed on the kitchen floor.
Responders were searching for another entrance when they heard a “click” as the dog managed to unlock the door to let them in. They found the man, named only as Mr Green, collapsed on the floor in the kitchen as the fire took hold on the hob. Firefighters then swiftly put out the fire and carried out first aid until paramedics (急救医士) arrived.
Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service said “a potential disaster” was avoided with help from the dog. They said they were called to the scene after a smoke detector was activated and a Careline alarm was sounded.
Mr Green initially answered the call but operator at Careline lost communication. Within six minutes, the crew was on scene and investigating. They could hear the alarm but were unable to establish contact with the man inside. With curtains drawn, the crew could not see inside but could hear a dog barking. They tried the front door, but it wouldn’t open. As the crew looked for another entrance, they heard a “click” and the front door opened. The crew went inside to find a man collapsed on the floor in the kitchen when a fire was beginning to take hold on the cooker. They contacted the ambulance service, put out the fire and allowed fresh air in. Firefighters then carried out first aid and established the man until paramedics arrived. It wasn’t until later in the incident that they discovered that Chi Chi had managed to open the front door and let the crew inside.
Ian Bolton, Crew Manager for Home and Partnerships at Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service added: “Having monitored diction in people’s homes means the fire service are only minutes away from providing lifesaving assistance. This is a real success story and highlights the importance of Careline and the fire service. Careline’s system, combined with the speed of our crews getting to the incident, saved Mr Green’s life. The cherry on the cake, however, was Chi Chi letting the crews in before they had to force entry to the property.”
24. How did the firefighters get into the kitchen?
A. They broke the door.
B. They unlocked the door.
C. The dog opened the door.
D. They found another entrance.
25. Why did the operator lose communication?
A. The operator lost his senses.
B. The system broke down accidentally.
C. The man fell down and couldn’t move.
D. The crew couldn’t see inside.
26. According to Ian Bolton, what is the most important factor in the rescue?
A. The dog unlocking the door.
B. The use of the smoke detector.
C. The swift reaction of Mr. Green.
D. The joint work of Careline and the fire service.
27. Which word can best describe Chi Chi?
A. Discouraging. B. Competent. C. Considerate. D. Energetic.
C
It’s a beautiful fall day. Before we camp near the river, the children dashed along thewater’s edge, leaping off the bank into the slow current, pushing through the mud. The scene ishappily familiar. We’ve been coming to rivers since our daughters were babies. In the beginning,we went to the wilderness because my husband and I loved it and selfishly wanted them to loveit, too. Now we go because we can’t live without it.
According to a report released in February, teenagers in the U. S. are in the midst of an alarming mental health crisis. A survey conducted in fall 2021 found that 30% of teen girls haveseriously considered suicide, a jump of 60% in the past decade. Boys are struggling, too. TheCDC report calls for greater school involvement in supporting at-risk kids, better access tomental-health services and higher standards for health education. As the mother of two teenagegirls, these statistics are terrifying. What can we as parents do?
For our family, the answer has always been nature. After they started school, wildernesstrips became our way of disconnecting from our digitized lives, and reconnecting with each otherourselves and the natural world. What began as a family experiment was now a cornerstone inour parenting philosophy: a way of raising healthy, curious, kind, resilient (对困境有承受力的) kids in an increasingly messy world.
I’ve seen firsthand how even a few nights out a few times a year have taught our daughtervaluable life skills like cooperation, compassion, resilience, problem-solving and adaptability, which is relevant to everything we do in life.
Will our strategy work? We’re still in the thick of the experiment, so it’s too soon to tell. Allwe can do is pay attention, keep talking, keep trying and keep going.
28. What might be the initial reason for the couple to take their daughters to nature?
A. They loved going to the wilderness. B. Their daughters liked camping.
C. It was a beautiful day for an outing. D. It started as a family experiment.
29. What does the author indicate by mentioning the report?
A. Americans are suffering mental crisis.
B. Girls tend to be more helpless than boys.
C. The findings have aroused social concern.
D. No mental-health services could be accessed.
30. What does paragraph 3 focus on?
A. Why she loves taking her daughters to the wild.
B. What they experience in the outdoor adventures.
C. How the daughters’growth have been transformed.
D. How the daughters balance schooling and recreation.
31. What do the daughters learn from nature?
A. How to conquer nature. B. How to be positive.
C. How to play in the wild. D. How tosee connections.
D
Digging out potato tubers (茎块)is one of the greatest rewards gardens have to offer. Children in particular are surprised at seeing these tubers that almost magically become chips, mash(捣碎)or baked potatoes.
Happily, potatoes are very easy to grow. Seed tubers are placed in good garden soil, ideally with some compost (堆肥) for every square meter, in a sunny spot, about 10cm deep at 30cm intervals in rows 60-70cm apart.
Seed tubers are offered as curliest and second earliest and maincrop. The second earliest and maincrops can be stored for winter use but earliest are usually consumed in summer.
Seasoned potato growers buy early seed potatoes in February and place them in a cool, reasonably light place and let them sprout (发芽). It takes six weeks for small sprouts to form.
Early potatoes are typically planted from middle March in the South, but are likely to emerge before the first season finishes in May. The shoots are frost-sensitive requiring protection on cold nights with either earth or newspapers.
Second early and maincrop potatoes are planted in middle April---the frost risk will be low, but not absent, by the time they emerge. As the stems (茎) grow, soil should be drawn around them until the leaves meet in the row in early summer. At this stage, the potato field is a series of ridges (脊;垄). The tubers form in the ridge, protected from light that turns them green. Covering with black plastic or a thick layer of compost is also accessible instead of ridging, but plastic is not sustainable and slugs (鼻涕虫) can multiply in compost.
Once the flowers are fully open, it is time to dig plants when the tubers are the size of a hen’s egg. They grow rapidly but gradually lose their juicy new potato flavour, so harvest freely.
32. What’s the writing purpose of paragraph 1?
A. To describe a magic process.
B. To recall a childhood memory.
C. To raise a potato-related topic.
D. To introduce a gardening award.
33. What can we learn about seed tubers?
A. The closer the intervals are, the faster they will grow.
B. The warmer the weather is, the better they will grow.
C. The earlier they are planted, the healthier they will grow.
D. The deeper they are planted, the stronger they will grow.
34. What helps potatoes grow in the long term?
A. Frost. B. Plastic. C. Ridges. D. Slugs.
35. What’s the text mainly about?
A. How to cook potatoes.
B. How to grow potatoes.
C. How to harvest potatoes.
D. How to preserve potatoes.

Since the invention of the Walkman, here’s been an ongoing debate about headphones and training. 36.
You’re blocking out your surroundings.
One of the main reasons to leave your headphones at home is for your own safety. Evenaround Runner’s World headquarters, there is a possibility we come across distracteddrivers, cyclists, or forgetful walkers.37 , you might not be able to hear approachingcars, people trying to communicate with you, or even bad weather in the distance.
38 .
While training with music has been proven to be a valuable tool, it isn’t something that you want to bring with you on every training run. You don't want to become dependent on music to get you through a run, because on the race day you have to be your only inspiration. Music can throw off your pace during a race.
You damage the running experience.
In today’s society, distractions from technology are everywhere, and a person without a phone in the hand is a rare site. 39 . While there are days you might feel like you need the extra motivational boost from your favorite tunes, there is something special about being alone and running with only your thoughts and nature.
You might get hurt.
40 .This includes your hearing system for balance and coordination (协调性). The slightest change of sound beneath your shoes cues your feet, legs and upper body to respond properly to the land. Similarly, the tiny structures within your inner ear that provide balance and spatial (空间的) awareness can also be destroyed by loud use of earphones. Quite a few runners have injured their ankles because of disturbances caused by headphones.
A. You will gain bad emotions
B. You may ignore your running pace
C. When you run, you use all of your senses
D. If you are addicted to your music on a run
E. Headphones will affect the balance during running
F. Here are a few reasons why you should not use headphones while running
G. Running is a way for many to clear your heads and get away from these distractions

阅读下列材料，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。
As Mom and I stood in line waiting to cash out at the retail store, I studied the customer in front of us who was reading the magazines to our left. She was young, maybe early twenties, but she already had a stoop (驼背), looking very tired.
The items in her cart included the cheapest cuts of meat and meal materials like pasta, rice, and potatoes. Day-old bread, bargain soap, and inexpensive shampoo (洗发剂)completed her purchases ---well, almost. In the corner sat a little doll and a pretty dress that was 50 percent off. She continued to look at the magazines as we waited, and more people lined up behind us. She turned around and asked Mom for help.
“I’m sorry to bother you,” she began shyly. “But can you tell me how much this is? I forgot my glasses at home.” “Of course,” Mom said. When Mom finally found the small print and told her, she sighed quietly and put it back.
“Next!” The cashier called and she moved forward to begin her trade. When the store employee finally figured everything out and told her the cost, the woman’s face paled. It was obvious that she didn’t have enough money, and she scanned her groceries to see what she could do without. One by one, she removed things, but it was still not enough. She continued to take much-needed goods out while the cashier patiently deducted(扣除)things.
The child’s items remained in the cart, however. In fact, the palm of her other hand lay protectively across them, as if she didn’t want to be tempted to abandon them. The woman finally paid, and moved down to bag them.
When our turn came, Mom pointed to the pile of items the woman had taken out, added all our meat and fresh milk, and whispered “Separate bags, same bill please” to the cashier. She nodded, even though it was a “pack your own” kind of store.
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。
Paragraph 1:
The cashier went on with her work, and Mom and I picked up all the items.




Paragraph 2:
The woman turned and looked at my mom in surprise.
