Dear Mr. Bran-son,
I truly love Virgin Atlantic,which is why I continue to choose your flights despite a series of unfortunate incidents over the last few years.This latest incident takes the biscuit,though. Mr.Bran-son,look at the mustard(芥末).It was intended to accompany mashed potato. However,here was more mustard than any person could handle in a mouthful.The potato masher had obviously broken,so it was decided the next best thing to do was pass the potatoes through the digestive system of a bird and blend it with“a bit”of mustard.Of course, Mr.Bran-son,everybody likes“a bit”of mustard.
By then,I felt a little sick,and I needed a sugar hit.Luckily,a small cookie was provided,but it appeared to be some sort of backstreet underground cookie.Imagine biting into a piece of metal,Mr.Bran-son.That would be softer on the teeth than this one.
Exhausted and starving,I decided to resort to your world-famous onboard entertainment, so I switched on the screen.Guess what?It was incredibly hard to capture Boris Johnson's face through the flickering white lines running up and down the screen.I'd had enough,but my only
option was to simply stare at the seat and wait for either food or sleep.Neither came for an incredibly long time.
So that was that.As I said at the start,I love your brand.It's just a shame that such a simple thing could bring it crashing to its knees and begging for food.
Best regards,
Oliver Beale

25.What did the author think of the mashed potato?
A.It looked like metal.

26.Why did the author turn on the screen?
A.To distract himself from feeling unwell.
B.To find out information about the flight.
C.To appreciate a famous actor's performance.
D.To test the quality of onboard entertainment.
27.What's the purpose of the letter?
A.To offer constructive suggestions.
B.To warn against an airline company.
C.To inquire about solutions to a problem.
D.To complain about unsatisfactory service.

William Vickrey was the pioneer to propose congestion pricing in 1952 for NYC's (New York City)subways and later for roads.It has been rejected for decades,but the idea finally has the green light in NYC officially.Earlier this month the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA),the agency tasked with enforcing congestion pricing,gave the policy the go-ahead.From May,decades after London made the identical move,drivers of cars into NYC's central business districts will have to pay.
The hope is that the fees will ease the traffic mercial zones where cars crawl are listed to be charging zones.The MTA expects much fewer vehicles on the city's streets, which should decrease air pollution and promote the economy.But what made the plan successful was what it should bring in—$1bn annually—needed for MTA capital projects, which should improve reliability as well as access to the transport system.
Nevertheless,the plan has not been met with universal delight.Take New Jersey,some of whose regions are within NYC,as an example.Since New Jersey drivers have paid to cross into the city before,the state has filed suit(上诉).Phil Murphy,New Jersey's governor, who supports pricing in principle,but not seemingly in actuality,has said that“We can't fix a broken MTA in NYC on the back of New Jersey commuters(通勤者).”Fort Lee,a town on the New Jersey side of the Washington Bridge,has raised air-quality concerns.It expects increased
traffic as lorry drivers try to avoid paying fees.
“Past years have witnessed the decline of fuel taxes as a revenue source in transport while congestion pricing could be the possible alternative.If NYC is really committed to doing it,they will come to some kind of settlement.”says Nicole Celina of the Manhattan Institute.
28.What can we learn about congestion pricing?
A.It applies to American drivers.
B.It was designed for roads initially.
C.It gained approval in London before.
D.It is rejected by the American authorities.
29.What is the main reason for the MTA's support for congestion pricing?
A.To develop the economy.
B.To relieve the traffic load.
D.To improve the environment.
C.To obtain financial benefits.
30.What is New Jersey's attitude to congestion pricing?
A.Favorable.
B.Hesitant.
C.Objective.
D.Disapproving.
31.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.Fewer Vehicles Are Expected in NYC
B.NYC Charges Drivers to Boost Economy
C.NYC' s Congestion Fee Faces Controversy
D.Congestion Pricing Dissatisfies New Jersey
D
Native wild horses in North America went extinct 10,000 years ago.In the 16th century, European settlers brought domesticated(驯化了的)horses to this continent,and their population multiplied.Some people consider them as a reintroduced native species,while others see them as invasive pests that damage ecosystems.Today there are more wild horses in the American West than the land can support,and the government has to control their numbers through birth-control vaccines and occasional but controversial killings.
However,Erick Lundgren,a postdoc at Aarhus University,notes that large plant-eaters play a crucial role in the ecosystem,where grass and shrubs are either consumed by animals or burned. Therefore,reintroducing extinct plant-eating mammals,like wild horses in this case, could potentially reduce the occurrence of fires.He advocates taking them off the rang-elands(牧场),where they're hated for competing with cattle for food,and strategically placing them where they can do what they do best and benefit the environment.
Although conservationists generally prefer native organisms to restore ecosystems, non-native species can fill in the ecological gaps left by extinct animals.A lot of research still looks at how bad invasive species are for the environment,but that's not the only possibility. For example,Australian saltwater crocodiles that were nearly extinct in the 1970s are now a species of“least concern”,thanks to the invasive pigs they've come to feast on.
“People will protest that a species doesn't belong here.But the word ‘belong'isn't
science;it's nativism.”Lundgren said.Many of the areas we consider“wilderness”today were ecologic created by native people who pruned(修剪)plants and watched over controlled burns.“We're changing the planet quickly yet refusing to let the living beings on it change with it.”he said.If we take away the issue of belonging and consciously assign the non-native species a role to play,what we're left with is a wilder and more diverse world.
32.What do we know about wild horses in North America today?
A.Their population grows rapidly.
B.They are native to the continent.
C.Their living spaces are narrowing.
D.They are protected from being killed.
33.How could we use wild horses to control wildfires?
A.Leave them undisturbed.
B.Remove them from rang-elands.
C.Promote their reproductive rate.
D.Utilize their grass-eating nature.
34.What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.The value of non-native animals.
B.The efforts in ecosystem restoration.
C.The need for protecting native species.
D.The importance of preserving biodiversity.
35.What does the last paragraph suggest doing?
A.Reducing human impact on nature.
B.Forbidding invasion of new species.
C.Staying open to non-native animals.
D.Returning animals to native habitats.
第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
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 next time you're at an airport or hotel,you might notice a traveling group that consists of young kids,parents,and grandparents vacationing together.__36__But more and more, families tend to bring multiple generations with them.
__37__In larger groups,for example,child-care responsibilities can be shared across family members,allowing parents to take a break.But the real value of these trips might be how they give relatives an opportunity to freshen their perception of the people they've known for perhaps their entire life.Travel can take us out of our familiar contexts and offer people a chance to see one another differently.
The shift toward multi generational travel has a few explanations.For one,grandparents today stay healthy later in life,allowing them more energy for travel.__38__Plus,the average U.S.household has become more multi generational.Americans are not just traveling with grandparents in order to spend time with them,they are traveling with them because they are more likely to live with them in the first place.__39__Americans are taking fewer vacation days than they did in the 1970s.They might want to make the most of that time by including as many people as possible.
Whatever the reason for its popularity,a multi generational trip can be a rare time when
younger and older generations can glimpse the complex people they have each become. Away from the family home,older generations get to see their adult children as responsible parents. Kids get to see their grandparents encounter a new environment.__40__
A.Another explanation is time pressure.
B.The benefits of multi generational trips are numerous.
C.Decades ago,only wealthy families vacationed together.
D.A scene like this would have been rare a few decades ago.
E.Multi generational family travel tops the list of travel trends.
F.Everyone gets to break out of their family roles and figure out how to be together.
G.Also,big-group accommodation has become more affordable through online platforms.

It was time for the ice cream event that my small youth group had waited for many months.The group consisted of five boys;one of them was Scott.
Scott always had a positive attitude.He looked on the bright side of things and
never
criticized anyone.But Scott was different from the rest of us because he was disabled, suffering from a disease which caused hands shaking constantly.Therefore,he was unable to participate in activities in most cases.No one ever made fun of him to his face,but at times,people would laugh or stare in his presence.But Scott never worried;he just kept his head up high and ignored them.
Finally,the night of the ice cream event descended.My friends and I rushed to the church basement and waited with scoops(冰淇淋勺)in hand for the guests to arrive.One by
one,people filed in,all hoping to get a creamy and tasty scoop of ice cream.But what they ended up getting was a hard and frozen mass.We waited for a while for the ice cream to melt,and eventually it did.
Once the ice cream melted,we had another problem.It had turned into three pools of coconut,chocolate,and strawberry.But we persisted in serving it.We had our chance to serve, except for Scott.So,being as kind as possible,I gave Scott a chance to scoop and serve.As soon as Scott gripped the scoop,our ice cream troubles grew beyond ky ice cream was flung in every direction and made a mess on people,but there was no sign for him to come to a stop on account of his terrible control of trembling hands.At that moment,a stir of unrest and dissatisfaction rippled through the crowd.

Looking forward lo having a fantasize trip with you soon.
Best regards,
Li Hua 第二节：
Abruptly,a woman stormed forward and grabbed the scoop.She clenched her fist,knitted her eyebrows and glared at Scott.Suddenly,she held the scoop high and roared to blame. Meanwhile,a flush of dissatisfaction and then fury overwhelming the crowd,they began to yell. Evidently,Scott was scared,rooted to the spot,with his forehead sweaty and his face pale.At the sight of this,I stepped forward,cleared my throat and shouted to explain Scott's spirit of devotion despite disability.Astonishment and then silence took hold of the crowd,after which she apologized and returned the scoop.
Tears blurred his eyes as Scott got hold of the scoop again.Te strained every nerve to control his hands to scoop ice cream.So regretful was the woman that she even came to assist him. Now,fully aware of the situation,the crowd settled down and stood in line.They beamed with smiles and offered words of encouragement as they received ice cream.As the last scoop of ice cream was served,a symphony of laughter and euphoria permeated the basement.It was at this moment that I came to the enlightenment that this experience was a testament of understanding,warmth and kindness.

Hello and welcome to your first day at Ski School.Here we will teach you some basic fundamentals of skiing.We are a different school for anyone wanting to learn how to snowboard.(17)
The first task we are going to finish is how to fall safely.(19)People always ask me why it is important to learn how to fall.Falling in the right and safe way makes it easy to learn how to stop.If you know how to fall safely,you can stop whenever you feel uncomfortable and before you get hurt.。
