My mother and her best friend Martha were in their mid-80s when they saw each other for the last time.
They had been friends since they were 18, both of them students atWesleyanCollegeinMacon,Georgia. My mother was the dreamy one, who loved to read and dream herself as an actress. Martha, however, was more practical. I’m not sure what they had in common except that they trusted each other, helped each other, and stayed in touch even when life separated them.
Martha spent most of her adulthood inAtlanta, where she raised three kids. My mother, meanwhile, raised eight children, and moved many times during her financially and emotionally troubled marriage, which included several months living with her family inseedymotels.
I sensed my mother hid her troubles from most people, but not from Martha, and I knew from my mother that Martha carried her own sorrows. Their willingness to share sorrow without judgment was part of what bond them.
The best friendships can also withstand (抵挡) periods without communication. They didn’t communicate a lot — this was before the ease of emails and texts and yet I knew they were always in each other’s minds.
One day in 2008, 1 drove my mother to Martha’s house for their final visit. The moment my mother hobbled (蹒跚) into Martha’s house, they threw their arms around each other and went to sit out in the garden, laughing until they were dizzy. I snapped a photo, and spotted something joyous, young and free on my mom, which existed only in the presence of her best friend.
Two years later, my mother died. Of all the people I had to tell, Martha was the hardest because I felt it erased her past. After that, we lost touch. But I still think of her and how that friendship strengthened my mother.

Jake Oldershaw and his daughter Mollie from Birmingham, Britain have asthma (哮喘). Mollie, 11, has required hospital treatment several times while Jake Says he always finds breathing more difficult when there is heavy traffic. Air quality has an enormous impact on their lives and both noticed a marked improvement during the spring lockdown because of the epidemic (疫情). Jake said, “During lockdown there was a noticeable difference in air quality. I didn't suffer any asthmatic attacks during that period. These days you can feel the effects.”
However, under current COVID-19 restrictions in the UK this winter, many people probably will have to work from home. The Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit (ECIU) says while emissions (排放) have dropped this year because we've been travelling less and doing less, the expected use ofgas boilers to provide heating and hot water could rise by more than half.
Heating accounts for nearly 37% of the UK's total carbon emissions. Modelling by the ECIU suggests a 56% increase in boiler usage this winter resulting in a 12% increase in emissions of carbon. The ECIU says that's enough to offset the last two years' worth of progress on reducing traffic emissions.
Jess Ralston, author of the analysis for the ECIU, said, “Working from home and having increased gas use in the home could be really critical for air pollution and also climate change. The way we heat our homes needs to change if we are to get to net zero by 2050.”
Jess Ralston said, “The increase in pollution from gas boilers expected this winter provides a graphic illustration (图解) of their forgotten role in air pollution. And it is a role set to continue without practical policies to decarbonize home heating. ”
The government is set to publish its Heat and Buildings Decarbonisation Strategy in a few weeks which is expected to give details on plans to try to switch British homes to cleaner sources of heat.
4. How did the spring lockdown in the UK affect Jake?
A. He was cured of his asthma.
B. He had to go to hospital for retreatment.
C. He suffered a noticeable difficulty in study.
D. He didn't suffer any asthmatic attacks during that period.
5. What is concerning the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit?
A. The epidemic will become worse.
B. Air pollution will get worse this winter.
C. People may have to work from home longer.
D. There is less energy for gas boilers in winter.
6. What would Jess Ralston agree with?
A. People prefer to work from home in winter.
B. The government failed to protect the environment.
C. People tend to ignore the harmful effect of home heating.
D. The climate has suffered a lot from the epidemic this year.
7. How to improve air quality during winter according to Jess Ralston?
A. A warmer winter season.
B. Less and less gas boilers.
C. Practical plans from the government.
D. Improved awareness of cutting down pollution.
C
Susan Scott, 71, is glad that she didn't think about her age when she took up bodybuilding at the age of 59.
“I reinvent myself every ten years. I started my 60s as a bodybuilderand now I'm beginning my 70s as a writer,” she said. “People usually limit themselves by age, and it's discouraging. With age, I remain young at heart.”
Dr Susan started bodybuilding at an age when most are considering retirement though she was an athlete from an early age. As a child in Venezuela, she took to gymnastics and later graduated with a physical education degree.
Then she obtained a master's degree in education and later a Ph. D. in Adult Personal Development. She taught at Cambridge Rindge and Latin High School in Cambridge, Massachusetts, for 16 years, while raising two daughters.
“I started bodybuilding when I met Steve Pfiester, a gym guy who practiced yoga. He invited me to his gym and offered to train me. I started in January and in June he took me to my first competition in Bradenton, Florida,” she recalled.
Dr Susan's photos show that she has devoted long hours to taking care of her body. But she also develops her
mind and spirit. On any given day, she gets up at 3 am to read books. At 4:30 am she's out to walk three miles and run another three. This is followed by yoga and a swim at the beach while the sun rises. After writing her journal and working on her book between 8 and 10 am, she hits the gym for at least two hours. “I don't lose track of time,” she said.
Dr Susan's war on ageism has rubbed off on her two daughters, both in their early thirties. “They both take care of their bodies and minds. If you give them a good foundation as a parent, you know that they will always come back to their roots. I tried to remind myself of that during their difficult teen years.”
8. What's Dr Susan's opinion on age?
A. Age cannot be hidden.
B. Age is a state of mind.
C. Every age has its pains and sorrows.
D. Old age is not suitable for further study.
9. What made Dr Susan start bodybuilding?
A. The need of her job.
B. Her youthful dream.
C. Steve Pfiester's influence.
D. Her daughters' encouragement.
10. Which of the following best describes Dr Susan's morning schedule?
A. Dull.
B. Tight.
C. Flexible.
D. Controversial.
11. What can be inferred about Dr Susan from the last paragraph?
A. She will set up a fitness foundation.
B. She will soon return to retirement.
C. She often thinks of her teenage years.
D. She sets an example to her daughters.
D
For centuries , tea has been used for far more than quenching thirst. Around the world people drink it to relax, reinvigorate and relieve, and it's something we need now more than ever.
Even in the United States, a long coffee-dominated country, tea drinking is growing in popularity, with the country consuming 0.4 kilograms (14 ounces) of tea leaves per person a year compared with 0. 36 kilograms(12. 7 ounces) in 2007 according to the United Nations, as people switch away from soda，milk and fruit drinks.
Scientists are beginning to look into just how tea might affect mood and cognition. Specifically, they're investigating whether its relaxing and refreshing effects are a direct biological outcome of the compounds in tea or whetherthey come from the context in which the drink is consumed—preparing your tea, choosing your favorite cup and sitting down for a brief break from the world. Or both.
Drinking green tea has been found to improve brain function in healthy people, said Stefan Borgward, chair
and director of the department of psychiatry and psychotherapy at the University of Lubeck, Germany.
In a 2014 study, he gave one or two cups of green tea to 12 healthy volunteers and imaged their brains to analyze changes in connectivity inside certain brain regions.
“We noticed an increased connectivity in regions of the brain associated with working memory,” he said via email.
And a 2017 review of more than 100 studies he coauthored found that green tea can impact the brain in three ways: It can influence psychopathological state such as reducing anxiety; cognition by benefiting memory and attention; and brain function, specifically memory.
That review concluded that "it would be desirable" for more Westerners to consume at least 100 milliliters(3.3 fluid ounces) of green tea each day “to protect neurocognitive function.”
However, Borgward, cautioned that the effects aren't large, and the evidence is mainly provided by small-scale studies.
12. How does the author introduce the tendency of drinking in the U.S.?
A. By showing examples.
B. By explaining reasons.
C. By making a comparison.
D. By checking existing facts.
13. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Scientists are looking into why tea makes people relaxed and refreshed.
B. The context in which the drink is consumed is very important.
C. People's relaxation is the direct biological outcome of the ingredients in tea.
D. Preparing tea, choosing a cup and sitting down for a brief rest is amazing.
14. What can we conclude from Stefan's research?
A. Tea is a cure for a neurocognitive disease.
B. Green tea is particularly beneficial to our memory.
C. Drinking tea every day can prevent us from getting ill.
D. Westerners drink less than 100 milliliters of green tea.
15. What is the researcher'sattitude towards the finding?
A. Supportive
B. Doubtful.
C. Unclear.
D. Objective.

【51题详解】
考查名词。

句意：一个好朋友应该具备的品质之一就是诚实。

“one of……”，后接可数名词复数，表示……中的一个。

故将quality改为qualities。

【52题详解】
考查介词。

句意：1976年7月28日凌晨3点左右，一些人看到天空中出现了明亮的光。

英语中表示时间的介词on+具体某日/星期几，表示某一具体的时间(常表达某一天)，in后一般加一段时间，年，月，四季等。

故将in改为on。

【53题详解】
考查形容词。

句意：在农家院子里，鸡甚至猪都被吓得吃不下东西。

frightened感到害怕的；frightening令人害怕的，指事情是令人恐惧的。

根据句子意思可知，这里鸡和猪是感到害怕的，而不是鸡和猪是令人害怕的。

故将frightening改为frightened。

【54题详解】
考查数词。

句意：三分之二的人在地震中死亡或受伤。

英语中表示几分之几，分子用基数词one two three……表示，分母用序数词second third fourth……表示，当分子大于1时，分母加-s。

故将third改为thirds。

【55题详解】
考查动词。

句意：军队组队挖出被困人员，埋葬死者。

trap为动词，“设圈套,陷入(困境)，捕捉”，分析句子可知，在定语从句those who were trap中，先行词those与谓语动词trap之间是被动关系，因此要用被动语态，be +及物动词的过去分词形式。

故将trap改为trapped。

【56题详解】
考查定语从句关系词。

句意：我们会照顾在大地震中失去父母的孩子。

本句为定语从句，先行词the children 与从句中parents是所属关系，表示孩子们的父母，关系词在从句中作定语，用关系代词whose。

故将who 改为whose。

【57题详解】
考查固定短语。

句意：仿佛世界到了尽头。

at the end使用时后面常跟介词of，at the end of在……的最后，通常指某一发展过程的最终结束。

at an end用于句尾，搭配be动词使用，表示结束。

故将the改为an。

【58题详解】
考查副词。

句意：二战期间，诺曼·白求恩作为医生在中国无私地工作。

分析可知，白求恩医生是无私的，selfish是自私的意思，应该用它的反义词“无私”，分析句子，此处用副词修饰work这一动作。

故将selfish 改为selflessly。

【59题详解】
考查固定短语。

句意：为什么纳尔逊·曼德拉求助于暴力以使黑人和白人平等？turn to sb/sth.求助于......,向......求教，转向等。

介词to后直接跟名词、代词、动名词等。

故将for去掉。

【60题详解】
考查倒装句。

句意：历史上从来没有一座城市被如此彻底地摧毁。

英语中，never, seldom, rarely, little, hardly, scarcely, no sooner, no longer, nowhere 等含有否定意义的副词若位于句首时，则其后要用部分倒装，将助动词提到主语前，分析句子可知，时态为现在完成时，形式是have/has + 过去分词，主语a city是单数，谓语动词用单数。

故将history后加has
52.略。
