In 1931, Americans were suffering through the Great Depression. It was The Good Earth by Pearl Buck that brought
comfort, the top-selling book that year.
Born into a religious workers’ family in 1892, Pearl Buck left the United States and moved to China with her parents.
Her education began at home with her mother teaching her American school things while a Chinese tutor taught her other
subjects, including writings of Confucius. In 1910, she went back to America to study philosophy. After graduation, she
returned to China and married John Lossing Buck, an agriculture expert, eventually settling down in a small village in the
north of China.
Had it not been for their first child Carol, who had an unusual disease causing her to have trouble learning, Pearl Buck
might never have become a famous writer. The reason was money. She needed it to pay for her daughter’s care. She recalled
why she chose China and its people as the subjects, “If none of you want to write these wonderful farmers. I will write
about them. So, I wrote The Good Earth.”
The Good Earth tells the story of a poor Chinese man named Wang Lung and his wife O-Lan. It recounts how they
work hard and finally make enough money to purchase some land for a farm. They stick to the land even in times of
starvation, themselves begging on the streets. Experiencing ups and downs, Wang finds happiness in owning land and
raising crops. He even forbids his sons to sell the land after his death.
Pearl Buck told her China stories with honesty and Americans were impressed by the new images of the Chinese
totally different from those in Hollywood movies. The book earned Pearl Buck the Pulitzer Prize and was later adapted into
an Oscar-winning movie. In 1938, she became the first American woman to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature.
24. How did Pearl Buck benefit from her education?
A. She thought the best education lay in home.
B. She highly appreciated education in the countryside.
C. She preferred Chinese education to Western education.
D. She gained a lot from a combination of different styles of education.
25. Why did Pearl Buck decide to write books?
A. Some Chinese advised her to do it. B. She was in desperate need of money.
C. She couldn’t bear the boring rural life. D. She desired a good education for her kid.
26. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A. Good fortune always favors the characters.
B. Owning land is the lifeline for Chinese farmers.
C. Chinese farmers lead a terribly miserable life.
D. The characters make a fortune by buying and selling land.
27. What is the text mainly about?
A. The moral values of The Good Earth.
B. The fighting spirit of Chinese farmers.
C. A woman writer’s sacrifice to save her ill child.
D. A woman’s great China-themed literary achievements.
C
For some people, nothing beats a long walk on a sandy beach. But there’s no denying that it’s not as easy or as fast toget around on the beach as it is on a road or a sidewalk. But why is it so hard to walk on sand?
The problem with sand is that it’s soft; you “sink in” at each step. This forces you to use 2.1 to 2. 7 times more energy
with every step you take. Another idea is that people walk more difficultly on soft than they do on hard surfaces, a study
found. The researchers compared how people walked on foam (沫) and hard surfaces by analyzing the forces under their
feet and how much oxygen each person consumed. They found that walking on soft surfaces, such as sand, mud and snow,
caused people to take longer steps — actions that use more energy than walking on a hard surface.
But as experienced beach walkers know, there’s a way to make it easier to walk on sand: Just add water, When sand is
wet, it becomes more compact (紧密), and walking on it is more similar to walking on hard surface. In other words, it’s
much easier to cross a beach by walking along the shoreline, where the waves roll in and out. This is a balance though; too
much water could make the sand soft once again. If water isn’t an option, there is another way to make walking on sand
easier — increasing your surface area. This could be accomplished by wearing shoes.
Although it’s more difficult, there are some good reasons to exercise on sand. The impact forces are lower on sand than
on hard surface. Research suggests that walking across sand is much easier on your joints (关节) and muscles, especially
compared with an unforgiving surface such as concrete (混凝土). This means sand is a better surface for helping athletes
recover more quickly from workouts.
28. Why is the question raised in the first paragraph?
A. To show problems. B. To call up readers’ memories.
C. To invite readers to answer it. D. To draw readers’ attention to the topic.
29. How can you walk on sand more easily?
A. By putting on shoes. B. By taking longer steps.
C. By walking in the water. D. By using special breath methods.
30. Which of the following surfaces is unsuitable for athletes’ training?
A. Sand. B. Concrete.
C. Foam. D. Snow.
31. What may be the best title for the text?
A. Tips for Beach Vacation B. All Kinds of Sports on the Sand
C. Why Is It So Hard to Walk on Sand? D. Where Are We With the Sand Research?
D
Biophilic design (亲生物设计) is a concept used within the building industry to increase people’s connection with the
natural environment by using direct nature, indirect nature, space, and place conditions. It is argued that this idea has health,
environmental, and economic benefits for building occupants (居住者) and urban environments, with few drawbacks.
Although its name was coined in recent history, indicators of biophilic design have been seen in architecture from as far
back as the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.
Studies show that incorporating the natural environment into buildings can have a positive influence on physical and
psychological well-being.
Studies by Roger S. Ulrich have consistently found physical health promoting outcomes associated with viewing
nature scenes through windows. In his studies, he assessed patients' recovery from surgery. Half the patients had rooms with
a view of green trees while the others saw a brick wall. Patients in the rooms with the nature view stayed in the hospital for
fewer days and had a more positive recovery process in general than the patients who had a view of the wall. Similar results
were found in a field study of office workers by Rachel Kaplan.
Additionally, children in low-income urban housing who had problems with learning because of being unable to pay
attention to things for very long showed improved scores on a standardised measure of attention deficit disorder (注意力缺
陷障碍) when they moved to houses with more outdoor natural vegetation.
From an economic aspect, people are likely to spend more on houses that have views of nature; buyers are willing to
spend 7% more on homes with excellent scenery, 58% more on houses that look toward water, and 127% more on those that
are next to water.
Appreciating natural beauty isn’t something that some people can enjoy and others can’t; it happen without effort or
even conscious awareness. So the more our buildings can make use of our ancient sense beauty, the more likely they will
support us psychologically and emotionally, as well as functionally.32. What do we know about biophilic design?
A. It originated in Babylon. B. It has no disadvantages.
C. It rarely uses indirect nature. D. It enjoys a long history.
33. What does the underlined word “incorporating” probably mean in paragraph 2?
A. Including. B. Transforming. C. Pouring. D. Folding.
34. How does the author show people's preference for nature in paragraph 5?
A. By giving examples. B. By conducting surveys.
C. By listing figures. D. By analyzing causes.
35. Which of the following shows the structure of the text?
(I=Introduction; P=Point; Sp=Sub-point; C=Conclusion)
A. B. C. D.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I got through another long, annoying day teaching high school English via Zoom. Upon reaching my office, I pulled up
my work email. There was a message from a woman who I didn’t know: Gigi Shepherd, who asked how she could join my
class. “Was she a new teaching assistant?” I wondered. I’d never done any co-teaching. And I certainly wasn’t interested in
doing it now with a stranger.
The email must be a mistake. Before I could figure it out, the principal called. She explained that Ms. Shepherd had got
the passcode that would grant(同意) her admittance to my Zoom space.
“It’s good news!” the principal said. “Our district is trying to improve teachers’ skills by placing experienced part-time
teachers with new full-time educators. It means more help for you.”
“Can’t you put her in another classroom?” I said. “I’m just fine alone.”
“The assignments have been made,” she said. “This will be fine.”
Deep down, I disliked changes. When things didn’t go as I wanted, I tended to get anxious. That evening, I emailed the
stranger, as I’d come to think of her, with directions for joining us online.
The next morning, my screen was filled with the image of Gigi’s husband, as he helped her sign on. Gigi looked to be
about my age. I put her on the spot, asking her to teach a lesson supporting the students’ emotional needs. To my surprise,
the students became cheerful and lively as Gigi led them in a discussion on ways to stay connected. “Remember-even when
we’re apart physically from friends and family, we needn’t feel alone, " she said in a breathy, sweet yet deliberate(从容的)
voice, like a grade schoolteacher. And all the students responded. That was totally different from my teaching style.
Her kind words weren’t reserved only for students. “What a wonderful lesson,” she said before we signed off. “I really
like the way you express yourself, Lori,” she told me.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按照图如下格式在答题卡的相应位置做答。

My Favourite Food
Of all the foods I have ever tried, stinky tofu is my favourite.
I like it because of its unique flavour and smell! As the name suggests, the smell is terrible but surprisingly, the taste is
actually quite mild — it tastes like fried tofu with less of the bean flavour. The sauce makes it taste even more delicious. As
I take each bite, the crisp and juicy flavour slowly fills my mouth. How can I forget such a tasty snack?
Whenever I feel unhappy, I eat this snack and it does make me feel better.
读后续写：
After school that day, Gigi and I got to know each other. She’d studied English in college and taught English for 12
years before becoming a stay-at-home mom when her son Dylan was born. When Dylan’s high school English teacher had
given birth, Gigi agreed, with her son’s support, to take classes for her. Gigi was all about heartfelt praise and careful
listening in class. And the students responded. In the days that followed, the kids were quite active, and they filled the chat
window with comments that showed they were engaged in what was going on in class.
Since then, I had learned a lot from Gigi. In my class, I tried to take a more positive tone with students and practiced
speaking more calmly and smoothly. I looked forward to seeing her each morning, to the lessons we would teach, and to our
after-school chats. She wasn’t a stranger. We were a team. As usual, she did better at teaching. But I didn’t mind. It wasn’t a
competition. I would be grateful to share every day with my trusted colleague Gigi, the wonderful new friend I needed even
before I did.
