My husband and I always wanted to go to the Caribbean but didn't know much
about the islands or how we were going to afford it. By chance, a friend of ours in
Australia mentioned “pet sitting” and that it is something you can do all over the
world.
We quickly created an account on a pet sitting website and began searching for
options. There were only a couple of sits available in that part of the world, but we
tried our luck, sent a request, and to our surprise landed a three-month job in Grenada,
so our year was going to be taken up with Caribbean pet sits.
Inspired by a Canadian couple, we decided to start our own travel blog. We began
by writing about The Virgin Islands, highlighting the beautiful beaches. However, for
every photo album of a beautiful beach, there were 10 photos of trash （垃圾）． It
was hard to ignore the plastic pollution issue, especially on such primitive and remote
beaches. So, we began to share photos of the trash we saw and how much we could
pick up on our daily dog walks.
The more we looked into plastic pollution, the more we realized the severity of the
global plastic pollution. From that point, we used our platform to create awareness and
highlight ways to say no to plastic and travel plastic-free. We changed our daily
routines, our way of living, and even our diets to accommodate more organic foods and
little to no plastic packaging.
It's been over three years now and we continue to do what we can. This journey
has led us to some amazing places, working with great brands and even organizing a
country-wide beach clean-up campaign in Grenada.
Our aim now is to keep on going. We love connecting with like-minded people. It's
been amazing few years that was sparked by a conversation about pet sitting. Who
would have guessed?
24. Why did the author do pet sitting?
A. To raise fund. B. To protect the environment.
C. To cover travel expenses. D. To shoot beautiful beaches.
25. What does the author intend to convey through her story?
A. Pet sitting is a new type of occupation.
B. The Caribbean is an ideal travel destination.
C. Travel blog is a superb way to gain popularity.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司D. Action should be taken to fight plastic pollution.
26. How did the author find her experience in the Caribbean?
A. Significant. B. Challenging. C. Adventurous. D. Dreadful.
27. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Changing Lifestyles by Pet Sitting
B. Unexpected Gains from Pet Sitting Travel
C. Dealing with Global Environment Pollution
D. The Availability of Pet Sitting in the Caribbean
C
Housing officials say that lately they are noticing something different: students seem to lack
the will and the skill, to address ordinary conflicts. “We have students who are mad at each other
and they text each other in the same room,” says a teacher. “So many of our roommate conflicts
are because kids don’t know how to negotiate a problem.”
And as any pop psychologist will tell you, bottled emotions lead to silent discontent that
can boil over into frustration and anger. At the University of Florida, emotional outbursts occur
about once a week, the university’s director of housing and residence education says. “It used to
be: ‘Let’s sit down and talk about it.’” he says. “Over the past five years, roommate conflicts
have increased. The students don’t have the person-to-person discussions and they don’t know
how to handle them.” The problem is most dramatic among freshmen; housing professionals say
they see improvement as students move toward graduation, but some never seem to catch on,
and they worry about how such students will deal with conflicts after college.
Administrators speculate that reliance on cell phones and the Internet may have made it
easier for young people to avoid uncomfortable encounters. Why express anger in person when
you can vent in a text? “Things are posted on someone’s wall on Facebook: Oh, my roommate
kept me up all night studying,” says Dana Pysz, an assistant director in the office of residential
life at the University of California, Los Angeles. “It’s a different way to express their conflict to
each other, consequently creating even more frictions as complaints go public.” In recent focus
groups at North Carolina State University, dorm residents said they would not even confront
noisy neighbors on their floor.
Administrators point to parents who have fixed their children’s problems in their entire
lives. Now in college, the children lack the skills to attend to even modest conflicts. Some
parents continue to interfere on campus.
28．What is the main reason for many roommate conflicts?
A．Students are not strong-willed.
B．Students are not satisfied with each other.
C．Housing directors are not responsible for them.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司D．Students are not good at reaching an agreement about the problems.
29．What do we learn from the second paragraph?
A．Students, especially freshmen, should bottle up their dissatisfaction.
B．Some students are not able to handle conflicts by the time they graduate.
C．Students in Florida sit down and have a person-to-person talk once a week.
D．The number of conflicts among roommates has decreased during the past five years.
30．What is the attitude of Dana Pysz when he mentions roommates disclosing their conflicts in
the media?
A．Disapproval. B．Indifference. C．Eagerness. D．Empathy.
31．What should parents do according to the passage?
A．They should be involved in their children’s life on campus.
B．They should teach their children the skills to tackle the conflicts.
C．They should constantly contact the administrators of the college.
D．They should deal with their children’s problems in their whole lives.
D
In habitats across the planet, animals periodically drop everything to walk, fly or swim to a
new place. Wildlife such as whales and geese learn migration paths by following their parents.
Others, including small songbirds, gain the distance and direction of their migration within their
genetic code. And some animals use a combination of genetics and culture to guide their
migration.
Another group of migrators does not quite fit either model, and researchers have only
recently started to figure out how they find their way. Take the Cory’s shearwater, an oceangoing
sea bird that migrates over the Atlantic every year. The young do not migrate with their parents,
so culture cannot explain their journeys. And the exact paths vary wildly from individual to
individual, making genetics equally unlikely.
Cory’s shearwaters are long-lived, rarely producing young successfully before age nine.
This leaves an opening for learning and practice to develop their migration patterns. Researchers
call this the “exploration-refinement”, and until now it has been hypothetical (假设的) because
of difficulties in tracking migratory animals’ movements.
But a team of researchers has done that by attaching small geolocators to more than 150 of
the birds aged four to nine. They found that younger birds traveled longer distances, for longer
periods, and had more diverse paths than older birds. “We finally have evidence of the
‘exploration-refinement’ for migratory birds,” says Letizia Campioni, who led the study.
Younger Cory’s shearwaters are able to fly just as fast as the adults— but they do not, suggesting
that the young do more exploring, which gradually fades as they mature and settle into a
preferred course.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司Although it may seem less efficient than other strategies, “exploration refinement could be
beneficial to birds and other organisms in a rapidly changing world due to unpredictable man-
made changes,” says Barbara Frei. “It might be safer to repeat a behavior that was recently
successful than to rely on patterns that were perfected long ago but might no longer be safe.”
32．What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A．It describes animals’ habitats. B．It talks about migration models.
C．It compares different species. D．It introduces a tracking technology.
33．What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A．The opening for learning and practice.
B．The unique living habit of Cory’s shearwaters.
C．The way Cory’s shearwaters form their migration patterns.
D．The process scientists track Cory’s shearwaters’ movements.
34．What does Letizia’s study find about the younger Cory’s shearwaters?
A．They travel as much as adult birds.
B．They move in a predictable manner.
C．They lower the speed for exploration.
D．They look for a course with their parents.
35．What can we conclude from the last paragraph?
A．Man-made changes make migration easier.
B．Animals make a safer journey via a fixed track.
C．Course exploration contributes to birds’ adaptability.
D．A combination of strategies assures migration success.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多
余选项。
I believe almost everyone would like two things from their jobs and careers:
success and happiness. They want to do relatively well financially, receive fair
recognition for their accomplishments, enjoy their work as much as one can, and become
happier as a person as a result. So many people, especially ambitious, hard-working
people, simplify them in a logical way: They first seek success and then assume that
success will lead to happiness. ____36____. Chasing success has costs that can end up
lowering happiness.
This is not to say that you have to choose between success and happiness.
____37____. But you have to reverse (颠倒) the order of operations: Instead of trying
first to get success and hoping it leads to happiness, start by working on your
happiness, which will enhance your success.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司Whether you are an employee or employer, it is a better investment to increase
happiness at work and in life, rather than simply trying to increase measures of success.
____38____. No matter how much you enjoy your work, overwork will become an
obstruction (阻碍) to well-being.
Once work quantity is under control, happiness at work requires a sense of meaning
and purpose. ____39____. Earned success implies a sense of accomplishment and
recognition for a job well done, while service to others requires knowledge of the real
people who benefit from your work.
Ultimately, although success and happiness are linked, the magic mostly works one-
way — and not in the way that most people think. ____40____, and may lead you to
unhappiness. But working on your happiness. gives you the best chance at getting both.
A．You can obtain both
B．But this reasoning is faulty
C．It’s fairly reasonable to think this way, though
D．Working on your success to get happier is inefficient at best (充其量)
E．The first thing to remember is that happiness requires balance
F．It’s dangerous to pursue success instead of happiness
G．The two key aspects of meaningful work are earned success and service to others

In a short video on TikTok, in front of ____43____ Karim Kamar is playing the

Gifts for the poor
Mrs. Susan was mean and bad-tempered. There was no other way to describe her.
Just the other day I heard her telling the headmaster that children took too much time
in arts. She even said that most of us didn’t understand what we were doing. I left the
office feeling very angry.
My anger didn’t last, however. It was December and Christmas was approaching.
Excitement filled me right up to the top of my head. I smiled and laughed, singing
“Jingle Bells” as we rode home from school.
After dinner, Mom and Dad called me into the family room. I knew what we were
going to discuss. Every year for as long as I could remember, we had chosen a family
who needed some extra help at Christmas time, and we had taken gifts and food to
their house. It was one of our family’s favorite traditions.
Dad said, “It’s time we decide which family to help this year. Do you have a
学科网（北京）股份有限公司suggestion?” Some years it had been really easy to decide, but this year I couldn’t think
of anyone. Dad looked at Mom. “Maybe Mom has a suggestion. Sometimes she notices
things the rest of us miss.” Mom smiled. “I do know of someone who needs our help.
I think we should help Mrs. Susan.”
I couldn’t believe what I was hearing! “But, Mom,” I protested, “she seems to
have plenty of money and she dresses in nice clothes. Besides, she’s really bad-
tempered. She doesn’t even like kids. She might even kick our gifts off her porch (门
廊). I think we should choose someone else.”
“I know Mrs. Susan has enough money,” Mom said. “I know she isn’t very
pleasant to be around. But she was divorced before she moved here. She has three
children who have their own children and never come to see her. She is very lonely
and unhappy. You see, she never celebrates Christmas. April, you weren’t quite right
when you said she wasn’t poor.”
“You mean she’s poor in love?” I asked. “Yes. Sometimes it’s much more painful
to be poor in love than it is to be poor in money?” I was quiet for minutes. Then Dad
said, “Let’s take a vote.” Dad’ and Mom’s hands went up. Looking at them, I
unwillingly raised mine.
注意：
1.续写的词数应为150左右;
