一、閱讀理解Four Stylish Cottages to BookChurch Cottage    This three-bedroom cottage is just two minutes from the South West Coast Path. Enjoy magnificent views and cool air then return home to the comforts of handmade bedding and underfloor heating. The artwork is a highlight—there's a selection of carefully chosen pieces by young British artists hanging on the cottage's walls.    Details: Three nights ￡400 (churchcottage cornwall.com)Little Nut Cottage    A wood-burning stove and a hot tub for warming up after a hike around the hills—all the essentials are here at this cottage.

Though she doesn't work until the afternoon, she gets up around 5am to spend some quality family time around the kitchen table before seeing her daughter off to school.    Jeannie makes a point to add kindness to every aspect of her life, from being a community member to parenting to her job. "I want to be a living example not just to my kids, but to anyone I come across," she says. "I don't wait to be kind. I just go forward."    Growing up, Jeannie's mother taught her the golden rule: treat others the way you want to be treated. Today, she has conveyed similar values to her own children. "And when we go grocery shopping, we always buy some extra food that we can offer to anyone we see who might be hungry." she says.    Kindness comes in handy in Jeannie's place of work, too. "I deal with various attitudes every single day," she laughs. "I'm the one residents call when they need help. It's important that they know that I'm there to listen and that I'm going to take care of them as quickly as possible."    Not only does Jeannie's family inspire her to be kind, but her community does, too. I see little acts of kindness that continue to grow," Jeannie explains. "Watching someone offer their seat to an elderly person or someone with a disability, or help someone else carry a stroller or shopping cart up the stairs—that's how I grew up. Making the best of any and every situation, especially for others."4、Why does Jeannie get up as early as 5am?A. To go to work early. B. To drive her daughter to school.C. To help others in her community. D. To prepare breakfast for her family.5、What does Jeannie do to help others?A.By offering seats to others. B. By carrying a stroller for others.C.By buying extra food for others. D. By cooking for homeless people.6、What can we learn about Jeannie?A.She's the owner of a grocery store.B. She buys some extra food for herself.C. She's a mother of three college students.D. She's always ready to help others in need.7、What can be inferred about Jeannie's community?A.People there are friendly and nice. B. It is very convenient to shop there.C.There are many elderly people there. D. The disabled are treated unfairly there.    Hundreds of little robots are rolling around colleges and cities in the United States, Britain and elsewhere. The robots, about 50 centimeters tall, are bringing food like pizza to hungry students.    The Starship robots were being tested in limited numbers before the pandemic started. But pandemic-related worker shortages and a desire for contactless delivery have expanded their use. "Wesaw demand for robot usage just go through the ceiling," said Alastair. He is the head of Starship Technologies, whose robots recently made their 2 millionth delivery. "I think demand was always there, but it was brought forward by the pandemic effect."    The Starship robots use cameras, sensors and GPS to move around and even cross streets on their own at the speed of 8 kilometers per hour. Operators keep watch on several robots at a time but they say they rarely need to stop or move them around a barrier. When a robot arrives, people enter a code from their phones to open the robot and get their food.    There are some limitations for now. The Starship robots have to be recharged regularly. They are slow and cannot travel far. They cannot leave food at the door. And big cities like New York and London are not welcoming them.    Maloney is the vice president at Domino's Pizza. His company is testing robots from Nuro, a California-based company. The Nuro robots are about 1.8 meters tall and can travel at a top speed of 40kilometers on streets, not sidewalks. Maloney said Nuro delivery costs more than using human drivers for now. But as the technology gets more popular, the costs will go down.    Witcher is a technology expert with Forrester. He said it is easy to get excited about robots. But they will need to prove to companies they are better than human delivery drivers. It is "the right time and place for companies considering robots to test them and learn from them and do their own evaluation."8、What does the underlined phrase "go through the ceiling" in paragraph 2 mean?A.Stay steady.  B. Change quickly.C.Increase rapidly.  D. Decline gradually.9、What can we learn about the Starship robots?A. They are popular in large cities.B.They can cross streets on their own.C. They should be recharged frequently.D. They travel at a speed of 18 km per hour.10、What does Maloney think of Nuro delivery?A. It is cheap.  B. It is promising.C. It isn't fast enough. D. It isn't worth testing.11、Which statement will Witcher probably agree with?A. Robots should be tested and evaluated.B. Robots should be applied in villages soon.C. Robots should be put into massive production.D. Robots are less popular because of the pandemic.    The first person to live to 150 may already have been born, according to scientists. Worldwide life expectancy has more than doubled in the last 200 years and recent research shows it yet to reach a peak. So, what will life look like living to see your great-great-grandchildren and beyond?    Longevity(長壽) is one of the modern world's great successes and science is beginning to find evidence that our genes have a lot to do with whether we will live a longer life. Researchers at Harvard Medical School in the US are convinced they have found a so-called "longevity gene" and are testing whether the addition of this gene to mice extends their lives. The long-term aim is to find a way of controlling the gene to add an extra decade or two to human life with gene therapy.    But, what other factors can you adopt now to extend your life? Firstly, exercise regularly. Just 30minutes of gentle exercise three times a week can add years to our life expectancy. Secondly, a little of what you like does you good! Scientists believe that having small amounts of things we would normally classify as harmful might be good for us, such as chocolate, coffee or sunbathing! Thirdly, where you live can influence your life. So try to live somewhere peaceful and quiet where you get on with your neighbours.    Other factors include eating a healthy diet high in fruit, vegetables, fibre and Omega-3 oils, and keeping an active mind. A sense of community can help too, keeping in touch with family and friends.    So, living to 150 might be a realistic expectation for teenagers today thanks to future scientific advances. There is a certain amount of destiny with the genes you are born with but also you can help yourself by ensuring you stay fit and healthy for longer.12、What do researchers at Harvand focus on?A. Diet. B.Mind. C.Gene. D. Exeroise.13、What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A. Supporting evidence for the research of genes.B. Potential application of the research in Harvard.C.A further explanation of the factors of longevity.D. A reasonable doubt about the factors of longevity.14、What is the author's attitude towards living to 150?A.Unclear.  B.Optimistic. C.Indifferent. D. Pessimistic.15、Which can be a suitable title of the text?A. How to Live to 150 B.Genes Decide LifetimeC.Stay Healthy by Exercise D.The Importance of Healthy Living二、七選五16、    Leave a book in a public place, so that someone else can pick it up and read it, then leave it again for another person. In an ideal situation, the book, once brought into the bookcrossing movement, can travel for years. ①_____    One can always go through bookshelves and find a few books that do not quite belong there anymore. ②_____ Quite the opposite, bookcrossing is about giving books which you no longer like a new life. Someone will certainly like the books you did not enjoy.    After choosing the book you want to share with others, use its ISBN code or a title and register it at the official bookcrossing site. ③_____ Either print a label or write the rules of bookcrossing on the first page of the book. Include the unique code.    ④_____ In big cities, there may be special bookcrossing zones that cafes and libraries choose to open. However, it is a frequent practice to leave books in the wild": on a bench in a park, or in a tourist spot. It is a good idea to pack the book in a transparent plastic bag, in case of the bad weather.    Once the book has been found and registered, you will get e-mails. You will keep getting them every time someone finds your book in the future. Since its launch in 2003, the movement has gathered over a million members who have sent almost eleven million books out to travel. ⑤_____ A very noble goal, indeed!A. Leave the book somewhere in public.B. Attract the attention of potential readers.C. Its purpose is to connect people through books.D. You will get a unique code for the book from the site.E.

In 2014, a friend invited her to perform an act of kindness to old men as a Facebook challenge. So Wagner occurred to her, a kind senior who was not only busy helping young people in    1    , but also    2    at the homeless shelter.    Mahoney wanted to    3    Wagner better, so she asked to    4    a day together. "It was the first time in years that someone had made a day about him," says Mahoney. Their    5    one-day experience made Mahoney think: How many other seniors might    6    that kind of devoted attention? And had some seniors delayed their own dreams because they had been    7    busy caring for others?     At the time, there was a student named Chisholm    8    at the pub. He was    9    interested, so they made a plan: to find local seniors with long-time dreams and realize them. They soon settled on a(n)    10    for their new charity: We Are Young, or WAY for    11    .    By 2017, after organizing golf tournaments to    12    funds, they were ready to realize their first wish. Since then, WAY has realized 38 dreams    13    from taking a helicopter trip to    14    a football game in Qatar. Seniors can apply; wishes are then assessed by a committee that looks at factors such as    15    conditions and financial need.    Although their    16    operates only in Nova Scotia, each WAY wish is recorded and spread through a video. Mahoney and Chisholm have their own    17    —the pair want people to be    18    to realize a dream for a senior. "We want to create a nationwide movement that    19    how we view and support seniors," says Mahoney. "That is considered our social mission, and that is the difference our organization is trying to make to the    20    ."17、A. need  B. advance  C. brief  D. line18、A. performed  B. lived  C. volunteered  D. studied19、A. introduce  B. accompany C. interview  D. know20、A. waste  B. spend  C. wait D. save21、A. sad  B. fixed  C. shared  D. regretful22、A. pay for  B. take over  C. count on  D. benefit from23、A. intentionally  B. selflessly  C. particularly  D. luckily24、A. working  B. begging  C. crying D. voting25、A. hardly  B. secretly C. randomly  D. equally26、A. address  B. name  C. advertisement  D. poster27、A. short  B. certain  C. free D. real28、A. return  B. owe  C. refuse  D. raise29、A. learning  B. differing  C. ranging  D. suffering30、A. creating  B. watching  C. advertising  D. inventing31、A. physical  B. natural  C. emotional  D. athletic32、A. meeting  B. class  C. pub  D. organization33、A. skills  B. dreams  C. memories  D. pains34、A. inspired  B. envied  C. ordered  D. appointed35、A. ignores  B. decreases  C. changes  D. punishes36、A. conference  B. experiment  C. society  D.job四、短文填空37、    Here is a little tale about the Chinese zodiac ①_____(know) as Shengxiao, and ②_____ the rat became the first sign.     Legends tell us there was a great race between the ③_____(animal) to decide the order of the lunar calendar.
