AA virtual trip around the worldHow many people can say they’ve actually seen a volcano in real life?Here are five volcanoes in Costa Rica you can get to know via the Costa Rica Tourism Board quite well from the comfort of your own home.Arenal VolcanoLocated in Costa Rica’s Arenal Volcano National Park,a UNESCO World Heritage Site,the Arenal Volcano was the most active volcano in Costa Rica until2010.It is5,437feet tall and,according to the Costa Rica Tourism Board,the“town of Arenal surrounds the national park and is hailed Costa Rica’s adventure capital.”Rincón de la ViejaIf you’re interested in learning more about geothermal activity,then Rincón de la Vieja in the Guanacaste province of Costa Rica would pique your interest.Rincón de la Vieja stands at6,286feet high and nine miles wide. The last time the volcano had a big eruption was in January2020.PoásPoás and Irazúare two of Costa Rica’s most active volcanoes and reside in Costa Rica’s Central Valley.The crater lake Laguna Caliente,meaning“Hot Lake,”on Poás is one of the most acidic lakes on Earth.The volcanoisn’t only a tourist destination but also useful for scientific exploration.IrazúVolcanoCosta Rica’s tallest volcano,located about an hour and a half by car from San Joséin IrazúNational Park,is IrazúVolcano,standing at11,260feet.It’s a popular tourist spot and if the weather cooperates in a cloudless sky, visitors can have incredible views of both the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans.Miravalles VolcanoAccording to the Costa Rica Tourism Board,Miravalles Volcano,standing at6,654feet,“produces so much geothermal energy that the Costa Rican government’s electric institute constructed plants along its base to transform the energy into electricity to supply the national electricity system.”Not bad for a natural wonder!21.Which volcano last erupted in2020?A.Arenal VolcanoB.Rincón de la ViejaC.IrazúVolcanoD.Miravalles Volcano22.If you’d like to do some scientific research while travelling,you may go

center for young children,and her husband,Ari Kadin,who is in property management,were expecting their first child when Davis miscarried(流产).They were desperately heartbroken.But the couple,who were volunteering with adults in a Skid Row homeless shelter,refused to let their heartbreak break them.“In2013,our child would have been one year old,”says Davis,38.“And we kept seeing these kids at the shelter,and I said to my husband,‘We couldn’t throw a birthday party for our child,so let’s do it for these kids.’ ”They took over a room in the Union Rescue Mission and filled it with streamers(飘带),gifts,a cake—all the makings of a great party.Since then,the couple has thrown a party every month.They routinely attract250kids and their parents.An hour before each party,volunteers arrive to set up the decorations and activities:face painting, balloon artists,a DJ,cake,and pizza.There are small presents for the kids celebrating their birthdays that month,but Davis makes sure there are more than enough to go around.“I remember a mom came with her two kids,”Davis says.“And her child had a birthday.We had an extra gift for her—pink headphones.The little girl was so excited that she was jumping up and down.And her mom…she’s crying,‘Yesterday was her birthday.I had nothing to give her.I really didn’t expect a birthday party for my child.’”Doing her best to normalize(使正常化)these kids’lives is both heartwarming and bittersweet,Davis says.“If you look down,you see so many homeless people on the street,which reminds you that these kids don’t get to leave this area after the party.”It may be why,after throwing88parties,she still cries after each one.24.Why did the couple volunteer in a Skid Row homeless shelter in2013?A.Because they love children.B.Because they are warm-hearted.C.Because they enjoy the procedure of helping others.D.Because they didn’t want to be stuck in the pain of loss.25.What do we learn from the

cries after each party because she suffers a lot in the volunteer activities.CJapan airport offers cardboard beds for travelers waiting for coronavirus test resultsA temporary cardboard(硬纸板)box hotel has been set up at Japan’s Narita International Airport for travelers from abroad who can’t find room in a government site as they wait for their coronavirus test results,according toreports.The unsightly(难看的)set-up in the airport’s baggage claim area is equipped with workers wearing protective suits who provide snacks and water,CNN reported.People on local social media have criticized the arrangement,saying it could actually promote the spread of the deadly disease.“They don’t do much testing in Japan,but many travelers who returned from overseas are infected,”complained Misachasu,who also described the experience of his Vietnamese pal who spent a night in a cardboard cubicle.“We consider this space a high risk of infection,”he wrote.Though flights at the airport are down so sharply that it has closed one of its runways,planes are still arriving with passengers arriving from countries including the US and Italy who must undergo tests before they can go home.The travelers may receive results as quickly as six hours,but delays mean many have to wait as long as one or two days,a Health Ministry official told Channel News Asia on condition of anonymity.The cardboard boxes,which were developed for use in evacuation centers(避难中心)during disasters,contain a mattress(床垫)and a quilt.“There are facilities(设施)near the airport for people to stay,so as far as I know the beds haven’t been used yet—or if they have,it’s only been very briefly,”the official told the outlet.Japan,which last week declared a state of emergency in major population areas,has recorded at least7,400 cases from COVID-19,with137deaths,according to public broadcaster NHK.28.Who is the cardboard box hotel intended for?A.people on local social mediaB.workers in the airport’s baggage claim areaC.travelers travelling aboard who can’t find a hotelD.travelers from abroad waiting for their coronavirus test results29.Why do people criticize the arrangement of the cardboard box hotel?A.Because it is anti-humanismB.Because the hotel is too ugly and crude.C.Because it could speed the spread of the coronavirus.D.Because it is made of cardboard and easy to catch fire.30.What does the underline word“undergo”in paragraph4probably mean?A.pass throughB.live withC.cast downD.apply for31.What can we infer according to the Health Ministry official?A.Travelers’flight will be delayed for at least6hours.B.Few travelers are willing to settle in the cardboard boxes.C.At least7,400Japanese have been infected with COVID-19.D.Travelers must wait for one or two days to receive the results.DAfter weeks of concern about shortages in grocery stores and mad scrambles(争抢)to find the last box of pasta or toilet paper roll,many of the nation’s largest farms are struggling with another horrible effect of the pandemic. They are being forced to destroy tens of millions of pounds of fresh food that they can no longer sell.The closing of restaurants,hotels and schools has left some farmers with no buyers for more than half their crops.And even as retailers see spikes(高峰)in food sales to Americans who are now eating nearly every meal at home,the increases are not enough to absorb all of the perishable(易变质的)food that was planted weeks ago and intended for schools and businesses.The amount of waste is shocking.The nation’s largest dairy cooperative,Dairy Farmers of America,estimates that farmers are dumping as many as3.7million gallons of milk each day.A single chicken processor is smashing(粉碎)750,000unhatched eggs every week.Many farmers say they have donated part of the surplus(过剩的)to food banks and Meals on Wheels programs, which have been overwhelmed with demand.But there is only so much perishable food that charities with limited numbers of refrigerators and volunteers can absorb.And the costs of harvesting,processing and then transporting produce and milk to food banks or other areas of need would put further financial stress on farms that have seen half their paying customers disappear.Exporting much of the excess food is not possible either,farmers say,because many international customers are also struggling through the pandemic and recent currency fluctuations make exports unprofitable.“It’s heartbreaking,”said Paul Allen,co-owner of R.C.Hatton,who has had to destroy millions of pounds of beans and cabbage at his farms in South Florida and Georgia.The widespread destruction of fresh food—at a time when many Americans are hurting financially and millions are suddenly out of work—reflects the profound economic uncertainty caused by the virus and how difficult it has been for huge sectors of the economy,like agriculture,to adjust to such a sudden change in how they must operate.32.Which of the following is NOT the effect of the pandemic according to the passage?A.the boom of retailB.shortages in grocery storesC.mad scrambles of pasta or toilet paper rollD.the destruction of tens of millions of pounds of fresh food33.One of the reasons why the farmers don’t donate all their surplus to charities is_____A.that they are mercilessB.that charities won’t accept their donationC.that charities don’t have enough fridges and volunteers.D.that they would rather destroy the surplus than donate them for nothing.34.Which costs increase further financial stress on the farmers EXCEPT_____.A.the cost of customsB.the cost of harvestingC.the cost of processing foodD.the cost of transporting produce and milk35.What’s the best title for the passage?A.The Heartbroken FarmersB.Food Waste of the PandemicC.A Sudden change in AgricultureD.The Horrible Effect of the Pandemic第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。
