The way Jason Momoa describes Hawaii’s beloved inactive volcano, Mauna Kea, makes you understand why it’s considered sacred(神圣的).
"It’s kind of the umbilical cord(脐带) to earth," the actor tells CNN. "You know, if you think about the Hawaiian islands, that’s the biggest mountain in the world, right? All the way up. So Mauna Kea is the most sacred. We call it the belly button, too. That’s like our birthplace. That’s how our islands were formed. So how can that not be sacred?"
He would know. Jason, a native of Hawaii, has had a near-constant presence there when he’s not working, fighting with local protestors to stop the construction of the Thirty Meter Telescope, or TMT, which would drill directly into the mountain and invade its precious water supply. So far, protestors have successfully blocked the only road crews seeking to go up the mountain in order to build the billion-dollar observatory.
"It started in 2015. What’s happening over there was just not right," Jason says. "And I went over there to meet with everyone to bring the point to the world." Jason joins the protests when he can. He cared so deeply about the preservation of the land that when he had spare time to lend his support, he was there. "You also have to remember, that’s our water source. So having an 18-story building built on top of the tallest mountain from the sea level on our water level is terrible."
The Game of Thrones star says he feels the movement is working and describing his part in it as a calling to do what he feels right in his soul. "There’s massive progress that’s bringing our people together," he says, adding, "I think there are a lot of problems in Hawaii. There are a lot of things that have happened in our history, a lot of injustice, and so we’re shining a light on it. People like myself or Dwayne Johnson, Bruno Mars are trying to spread the concern all around the world. For my soul I need to be there."
4. Why is Mauna Kea sacred according to Jason?
A. It’s still growing upwards.
B. It looks like the belly button.
C. It’s the birthplace of Humans.
D. It brings the islands into being.
5. What does “It” refer to in Paragraph 4?
A. The project of building TMT.
B. The event of blocking the road crews.
C. The shooting of Game of Thrones.
D. The movement of preserving the land.
6. According to Jason,what’s the significance of their movement?
A. Bringing Hawaiian people together.
B. Witnessing the history of Hawaii.
C. Bringing Hawaii problems into focus.
D. Making Mauna Kea better-known.
7. In which section might the text be read?
A. Travel.
B. Celebrity.
C. Culture.
D. Technology.
『答案』4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B
『解析』
本文为一篇说明文。

文章讲述了夏威夷存在许多问题亟待解决，希望通过名人的影响力成为世界的焦点。

『4题详解』
细节理解题。

根据scared定位到文章第二自然段So Mauna Kea is the most sacred. We call it the belly button, too. That’s like our birthplace. That’s how our islands were formed.可知我们把Mauau Kea视为我们夏威夷人的出生地，也是我们岛屿如何形成的地方。

故此题选D。

『5题详解』
词义猜测题。

此题猜it的意思，it是对上文事物的指代。

根据上文Jason, a native of Hawaii, has had a near-constant presence there when he’s not working, fighting with local protestors to stop
the construction of the Thirty Meter Telescope, or TMT, which would drill directly into the mountain and invade its precious water supply.可知杰森是夏威夷人，在他不工作的时候，他几乎经常出现在那里，与当地的抗议者战斗，以阻止30米望远镜TMT的建设，TMT将直接钻到山上，并侵入山上宝贵的水源。

所以这里的it指代的是TMT项目的建设。

故此题选A。

『6题详解』
推理判断题。

根据倒数第二自然段And I went over there to meet with everyone to bring the point to the world.可知Jason做这件事情的目的就是为了让全世界的人都知道这件事情，也就是让夏威夷的问题成为世界关注的焦点。

故此题选C。

『7题详解』
推理判断题。

根据文章最后一句话People like myself or Dwayne Johnson, Bruno Mars are trying to spread the concern all around the world. For my soul I need to be there.可知，这些名人都关心这件事情，并且转发传播了这一问题，所以这个故事最有可能在名人版面读到。

故此题选B。

C
China is one of the first countries to breed a medical culture. In comparison with Western methods, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) adopts a vastly different approach. For thousands of years, Chinese people have accumulated rich experience in fighting all sorts of diseases, therefore forming a unique medical theory under the guidance of ancient Chinese philosophies.
The core behind TCM is that the human body's life is the consequence of the balance between Yin and Yang. Yang functions to safeguard us against outer harm, and Yin is the inner base to store and provide energy. When the balance between the two aspects is disturbed, people fall ill.
One of the traditional techniques of TCM, acupuncture (针刺疗法) means insertion of needles into superficial structures of the body - usually at acupoints (穴位) - to restore the
Yin-Yang balance. It is often accompanied by moxibustion (艾灸疗法), which involves burning mugwort on or near the skin at an acupoint.
The first known text that clearly talks about something like acupuncture and moxibustion as it is practiced today is The Yellow Emperor’s Inner Canon. It is the earliest and most important written work of TCM and is considered the fundamental and most representative medical text in China.
Acupuncture and moxibustion have aroused the interest of international medical science circles. And TCM is gradually gaining worldwide recognition. The WHO issued a document in 2002 that appealed to more than 180 countries to adopt TCM as an alternative in their medical policies. In 2010, acupuncture and moxibustion of traditional Chinese medicine were added to the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by the UNESCO. Presently, TCM has been back in the news for its effectiveness in improving the cure rate of the COVID-19 since its outbreak in January 2020.
8. What is the key feature of TCM?
A. It helps to restore body’s self-balance.
B. It’s based on ancient Chinese philosophies.
C. It adopts different medical approaches.
D. It’s gained experience through rich practice.
9. What can we learn about The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon from the text?
A. It greatly boosts the development of TCM.
B. It’s a foundation of world medical research.
C. It stresses the importance of using acupoints.
D. It distinguishes acupuncture from moxibustion.
10. Why does the writer write this text?
A. To introduce TCM to the world.
B. To review the development of TCM.
C. To tell TCM and Western medicine apart.
D. To comment on TCM in fighting COVID-19.
11. What might be talked about in the paragraph following the text?
A. Why TCM gets recognition from WHO.
B. Why TCM is gaining popularity.
C. How TCM helps in the current situation.
D. How other countries adopt TCM.『答案』8. A 9. A 10. A 11. C

The auto industry, aviation (航空) giants and lots of new companies are increasingly entering the race toward producing flying cars and air taxis, many of which are said to be fully electric. On the surface, there are so many innovations happening that it’s easy to forget that the world hasn’t even seen a fully autonomous car yet, let alone an electric flying vehicle you can park in your driveway.
In fact, there are several hurdles before people are riding through the air. “They are short on technology, and they are short on regulation.” said Jennings-Bates, vice president of a car company.
Uber and Boeing, both world famous companies, have announced ambitious plans for air taxis. However, the types of vehicles they have in mind would require magical electric batteries that don’t exist yet.
Whether the United States actually needs flying cars remains relatively unclear. Aviation experts say that air vehicles help solve congestion problems in big cities. “Today, we have a lot of traffic congestion on the roadways,” said Laurie Garrow, associate director for the Center for Urban and Regional Air Mobility at Georgia Tech. “Air taxis would provide a solution for that.” Others argue that putting traffic in the skies doesn’t solve very much. “We aren’t going to change the world in terms of traffic with flying cars,” said Jennings-Bates. “At best, it may take the place of traffic in the area, which is arguably less pleasant.”
Some experts say it’s not a question of whether flying cars will take off. Instead, it’s a question of how soon the concepts would be safe enough for humans to occupy. “Everyone is very excited and they’re coming up with very different designs,” Garrow said. “But you have a lengthy certification process that will need to go through to make sure the craft and flights are safe.” She estimates that it’ll be about 20 years before the U.S. sees more than test flights.
12. What can we infer about flying cars from Paragraph 1?
A. They are fully electric.
B. They are unavailable yet.
C. They need special driveway.
D. They equal autonomous cars.
13. What does the underlined “hurdles” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Ambitious plans.
B. Big problems.
C. Electric batteries.
D. Current innovations.
14. According to Garrow, what’s the main concern about flying cars?
A. Test flights.
B. Design.
C. Production.
D. Safety.
15. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Why we should produce flying cars.
B. How hard the race of making flying cars is.
C. How close we are to seeing flying cars.
D. What people’s opinions are about flying cars.
『答案』12. B 13. B 14. D 15. C
『解析』
本文是说明文。

汽车工业、航空巨头和许多新公司都越来越多地加入到生产飞行汽车和空中出租车的竞争中，而且其中许多都是全电动的。

文章介绍了对此进行了介绍。

『12题详解』
推理判断题。

根据第一段On the surface, there are so many innovations happening that it’s easy to forget that the world hasn’t even seen a fully autonomous car yet, let alone an electric flying vehicle you can park in your driveway.可知，在从表面上看，有如此多的创新正在发生，以至于人们很容易忘记，这个世界还没有见过一辆完全自动驾驶的汽车，更不用说一辆可以停放在自家车道上的电动飞车了。

由此推知，飞行汽车还没有上市。

故选B。

『13题详解』
词句猜测题。

根据划线词所在句后面的They are short on technology, and they are short on regulation.(他们缺乏技术，也缺乏监管)可推知，划线词所在句意为“事实上，在人们在空中飞行之前，还有几个障碍”。

由此推知，划线词与Big problems.意思接近。

故选B。

『14题详解』
细节理解题。

根据最后一段Garrow说的话But you have a lengthy certification process that will need to go through to make sure the craft and flights are safe.可知，但你有一个漫长的认证过程需要通过，以确保飞行器和飞行的安全。

由此可知，Garrow认为安全是飞行汽车的主要问题。

故选D。

『15题详解』
主旨大意题。

根据第一段可知，世界上还没有看到一辆停在车道上的飞行汽车。

以及最后一段Garrow的话可知，美国大约要20年才能看到比试飞更多的东西。

由此可知，How close we are to seeing flying cars.(我们离看到飞行汽车有多近)能够概括文章大意。

故选C。

It’s in Your Hands
Feeding bread to the ducks is a fond pastime for many of us, reminding us of happy childhood trips to the local park. ___16___ Eating it can cause our feathered friends to develop a condition called Angel Wing, which is when too much bread makes birds’ feathers grow too quickly. This additional weight puts a strain on their muscles, causing their wings to twist and drop open.
“Angel Wing can be cured if we reach birds before it has developed too severely,” says Caroline Simpson, a trustee of UK charity Swan Lifeline, “___17___” Over the last 20 years UK charity Swan Lifeline has rescued and treated more than 30,000 birds. Adult swans can develop heart disease by eating much bread, so it’s important that we do our best to prevent this by feeding them the right kind of food.
___18___ Rotten bread at the bottom of rivers and lakes allows bacteria to breed, spreading disease and attracting rats and other pests to our waterways, which can result in the presence of a mould (霉菌) called Aspergillus. It has the potential to kill waterfowl and other wildlife if it gets into their lungs.
___19___ Definitely not. Wild Things Swan & Duck Food has launched the “Better than Bread” Campaign to highlight the risk of a calorific diet to water birds. The campaign advises that there are much healthier alternatives to bread, such as specially developed feeds. They can float on the water surface, so birds can enjoy every last bit. ___20___
A. So we must stop feeding the ducks.
B. But did you know that bread actually puts birds in danger?
C. Does this mean we have to stop fun trips to feed the ducks?
D. Bread can also cause harmful changes to the natural ecosystem.
E. What a scene it is to watch ducks eating bread floating on the river!
F. Otherwise the consequences can be serious — such as the loss of the wing.
