2．根据短文内容，回答下列问题。

You must have heard about jogging（慢跑）as a popular way of keeping fit, but what about plogging? Plogging is a mix of jogging and picking up litter, coming from the Swedish phrase "plocka upp". It started as an organized activity in Sweden around 2016 and then spread to other countries step by step. For exercising, plogging is much better than simply running, because it provides changes in body movements by adding bending（弯曲）, squatting（蹲）and stretching（伸展）.
As 2018's hottest fitness way, plogging has become popular in more than 40 countries, from the US to France and Australia to Thailand. The idea of plogging is to pay attention to environmental protection as well as physical health — to care for Mother Nature as well as your body. "I run a lot and I love to spend time in nature. When I find litter out in the woods, it makes me sad and a bit angry. Plogging is a natural way to do something about that," Tesch said." It's so easy to just pick up the litter and put it in the nearest bin, and it makes you feel that you're making a difference!"
Have you noticed people jogging while carrying trash bags recently? Or running along with hands full of dirty plastic bottles? You might do soon! Because plogging has reached China. Olivier, a Frenchman married to a Chinese girl, began promoting（促进）plogging in Huizhou,
Guangdong Province, back in April. He and his wife were the only ones doing it at first, he said, but the craze soon caught on. The couple have set up a WeChat group for people to learn more about plogging. Currently there are more than 100 people from different parts of the country in the group to take an active part in the environmental movement. In honor of World Environment Day this year, the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China（中国工商银行）started plogging campaigns （运动）in 280 cities, attracting 13,000 people to join in.
Plogging can be done almost anytime and anywhere, and costs almost nothing. Will you take it up?
（1）What's the meaning of the word "plogging"?
（2）Where did the activity first start?
（3）Up to 2018, how many countries has the activity spread to?
（4）Why can the idea of plogging become so popular?
（5）How did Olivier and his wife make people learn more about plogging?
【答案】（1）It's a mix of jogging and picking up litter, coming from the Swedish phrase "plocka upp".
（2）In Sweden.
（3）More than 40 countries.
（4）Because it is to pay attention to environmental protection as well as physical health./Because it cares for Mother Nature as well as your body.
（5）The couple set up a WeChat group for people to learn more about plogging/By setting up a Wechat group for people to learn more about plogging.
3．根据文章内容，回答下列问题。

It was a Christmas night. I was an unlucky nurse who had to work on such a beautiful festival. When I was complaining（抱怨）about it, three people appeared at my desk－a tired woman and her two children, a son and a daughter.
"Are you all sick?" I asked doubtfully because they seemed all right.
"Yes," the woman answered weakly and lowered her head.
But when they started to present their problems, things became unclear. The daughter had a fever, but her temperature was OK. The son had an earache, but he couldn't tell me which ear hurt. It seemed that the mother was pretending（假装）to cough.
Something was wrong. But I only explained that it might take a while before a doctor could meet them. "Take your time, please," said the mother. I checked their charts－no address. All of a sudden I knew they were homeless while the hospital was warm.
The family huddled（蜷缩）together under the Christmas tree, smiling and talking with each other sweetly. Quietly, I went back to the nurses' station and told them what happened in the waiting room. It was just like God sending us a gift on this Christmas night. The nurses' station suddenly came back to life. All the nurses went into action for "a Christmas emergency（急诊）". We took out our meals for our Christmas "patients". We also put together oranges and apples as presents. We tried to exceed（超过）the needs of a family who only wanted a warm place on
Christmas night. Later, the little girl kissed me and said, "Thanks for being our angel."
（1）When did the story happen?
（2）What was the matter with the son according to his words?
（3）Why did the family come to the hospital?
（4）Did the nurses offer any help to the family?
（5）Who kissed the writer and thought the writer was an angel?

（5）The little girl.

Scientists of this study have thought up ways to help these people deal with their loneliness. They provided four steps for getting out of loneliness.
________ "It's not enough for people just to get in touch with others online. That's because most people don't show their true selves there," said Dr Cacioppo, one of this study's scientists.

然后文章针对如何摆脱孤独提出了建议。

主要包括：接受一些邀请；制定行动规划；认识一些有相同兴趣的人；对每一项活动都抱有最好的期望。

G.No, don't worry.不，不要担心。

本篇短文主要是针对如何摆脱孤独提出的一些建议，所以用New ways to deal with loneliness，处理孤独的新的方法，故选F。

（2）根据空2的前句句意：一些人交朋友有困难，而且他们经常感到孤独。

下文又解释了造成这种现象的原因，因此中间需要用一个过渡句，所以用What's the reason behind that?故选D。

（3）根据空3的前句句意：那意思是他们没有方法变得开心吗？后句句意：这项研究得出科学家们想出了一些帮助这些人对付孤独的方法。

可知前后句的意思表示转折，因此空3是对前面一般问句的否定回答，所以用No, don't worry.故选G。

（4）根据空4的上文提到摆脱孤独的四个步骤，可知接下来会分别介绍这四个步骤是什么，所以空4用The first step is to accept social invitations even if you don't want to go.故选B。

（5）根据空5的后句句意：谁知道有什么好事情在等待着我？可以推测出空5提到了将来，所以用After all, "tomorrow is another day".故选C。
