Goodbyes are never easy. A group of students are sharing their ideas to make a virtual (虚拟的) going—away
party fun and memorable.
Take a Trip
Why not go on a virtual trip with your friends and the guest of honor on Woyago
for a virtual going-away party? It might be an exciting trip to Italy, a relaxing trip

friends end up choosing the same thing. You can prepare more interesting
questions to double the fun.
Joanna
Magic Show
It’s time for some magic! For your virtual going-away party, try something
different. The magic show is a good choice. It is alive and highly interactive (互动
的). In the show, the magician performs a series of magic tricks with the active
participation of your guests.
Cindy
Marco Experiences
Marco Experiences provides great services. For example, it will take you on the
journey of how Alec’s Ice Cream is made and how to enjoy it. The best part is a
walkthrough of the production line, learning the story behind the brand and
actually tasting the ice cream. Yup! They will deliver some ice cream right to your
Bill home.

His Daily Check-In
I started the second term of tenth grade on February 1, seven years ago. But the next day, my mother passed
away in her sleep during the night. After we laid my mother to rest, I went back to school, but I didn't care much to
be there at all.
Since it was a new term, my teachers didn't know me very well. My English teacher, Mr. Goldberg, would ask
the class questions and call on people to answer. When he called on me, he'd pretty much be waking me up from
wherever my mind would be. I'd say, “Excuse me? What was that?” He'd ask me again, and I'd have the correct
answer.
One day, he asked me to meet him after class. “I don’t understand what's going on,” he said. “You always
seem lost. Your mind is always some place else during class, but you know all the answers."I told him the reason I came to school every day was because my mother made me. Now that she wasn't here
,
I didn't really feel the need to go anymore.
Then he said, "Well, just do me a favor. I want you to meet me in my office during sixth period." So I met him,
just to talk. Afterward, he said, “Meet me tomorrow, same time.” This went on and on, every single day. He had me
meet him before class. I would help him grade papers, and we would talk.
Mr. Goldberg went around to all my classes and talked to all my teachers. He said, “If you have any problems
with Maxie Jones, come to me.”
The next year, he did the same thing. I met with him every day, and he talked to all my teachers about
whatever was going on with me. Again, he told them, “If you've got any problem with Maxie, come and talk to
me.”
By the time I graduated (毕业) from high school, I had never missed a single day of school.
It took me years before I realized what he had done. I graduated from high school in the top 10% of my class.
But at 15 having lost my mother and not really seeing the importance of learning—I was in line to be a high school
dropout. I realized that the reason I showed up to school every day was because somebody there was expecting (期
望) to see me. That somebody was Mr. Goldberg. I will just remember him for the rest of my life.
30. What difficulty did Maxie meet at the beginning of the new term?
A. He lost his mother. B. He didn't rest well at home.
C. He had few friends at school. D. He didn’t understand the class well.
31. How did Maxie do in Mr. Goldberg's class?
A. He talked a lot with other students. B. He often answered questions quickly.
C. His mind was always someplace else. D. He helped Mr. Goldberg grade papers.
32. Maxie will always remember Mr. Goldberg, because________.
A. Mr. Goldberg paid for his books B. Mr. Goldberg played games with him
C. Mr. Goldberg helped him stay in school D. Mr. Goldberg's class is the most interesting
C
Some animals are “shapeshifting”. This means they are feather changing how their bodies work. Scientists
have found that birds’ beaks are larger because of the changing climate (气候). Today, the global climate is rapidly
warming.Scientists found warm-blooded animals can keep their body temperature constant (恒定). They are adapting to
a hotter climate. To adapt means to change. Adaptations help animals stay alive in their environment.
How Animals Cool Off
Animals have to control their body temperature. If they do not, they can overheat. So animals have different
methods to help them cool off. Birds, for example, use their beaks, which are not covered by feathers. They help
birds reduce body heat. Mammals (哺乳动物), which breathe air, have backbones, grow hair and produce milk, use
similar methods. They use their ears, tails and legs to help them control body temperature.
Scientists have studied this in the past years. They have studied animals in warmer climates. They know that
some of these animals have evolved (进化) certain features. These features allow animals to reduce body heat more
easily. They are becoming more obvious as the climate warms. This is particularly true in birds.
1
Sara Ryding works at Deakin University in Australia and studies birds. “Shapeshifting does not mean that
animals are dealing successfully with climate change and that all is fine,” Ryding said. “It just means they are
evolving to stay alive.” The study found that birds are changing the most. For example, several types of Australian
parrots showed changes. Their beak size has increased since 1871. Their beaks are now 4% to 10% larger. And that
growth matches the summer temperature each year. Scientists have also reported changes in other animals. Tail
lengths have increased in wood mice. Bats in warm climates have increased wing size, too. These changes might
seem small, but Ryding says that could change as the planet becomes hotter.
Ryding wants to keep studying “shapeshifting”. She will 3D scan museum bird samples (样品) from the past
100 years. She will see which birds are changing the size of their beaks because of climate change by studying
digital copies of bird samples. Ryding thinks the climate change that we have created is putting pressure (压力) on
animals, so humans should do more than just recognize the changes that animals have to make. She says that some
animals will adapt. However, others will not.
33. In “shapeshifting”, ______.
A. birds breathe air and change backbones
B. bird samples are made into digital copies
C. birds use their feathers to easily reduce body heat
D. birds’ beaks grow larger because of climate change
34. Which of the following would be the best heading for Paragraph 5 and 6?
A. What Animals Look Like B. All Is Not Well
C. Though Life Is Challenging D. It Is Worth A Try
35. According to the last paragraph, Ryding probably agrees that ______..
A animals are suffering from human behavior
B. technology won’t end animal “shapeshifting”
C. humans haven’t realized animal “shapeshifting” yet
.
D it is natural for animals to experience climate change
D
Friendly and trustworthy people are more likely to be picked for teams than those known for just their skill
competence (能力), according to new research.
“We would think people are chosen because of the knowledge and skills they bring to the table. However, the
research suggests people may often get picked because team members feel comfortable with them,” said Cynthia
Maupin from Binghamton University. “People may be willing to sacrifice (牺牲) a bit in terms of performance in
order to have a really enjoyable team experience.”
Maupin’s team focused on a number of MBA students to carry out their study. Students were randomly (随机
地) divided into teams to work on class projects when a term began. Toward the end of the term, students were
asked to form their own teams and talk about why they picked each member of their group. “We wanted to find out
what people did to show others they might be a good teammate,” Maupin said.
The researchers specifically (具体地) looked at how students showed their human capital, the ability to do
their tasks well, and their social capital, the degree to which they were friendly and trustworthy, to other students by
studying their use of challenging or supportive voice:
● Challenging voice: Communicating in a way that challenges the present situation and focuses on new ideas.
● Supportive voice: Communicating in a way that strengthens social ties and trust.
“As might be expected, anyone who was very strong in terms of showing both their human and social capital
were extremely wanted when it came to forming teams. They’re doing all the right things to show they’re both
trustworthy and competent,” Maupin said.
However, the researchers found students who only showed social capital through supportive voice were more
needed than those only showing their competence through the use of challenging voice.
These findings could have major implication for the workplace. If people are looking to join important teams,
they should use supportive voice to show others they can be trusted, especially when they’re new to an
organization. In times of the pandemic (流行病), the findings are even more useful as many organizations have a
fully long-distance or mixed work model. “You may only see your coworkers during online meetings,” Maupin
said. “With fewer in-person interactions, you really need to make your human and social capital noticeable through
the use of your voice, especially if you’re looking for future team opportunities.”
36. In the study the MBA students were asked to ________.A. explain why they picked certain team members
B. grade how each team performed in the projects
C. question the skills and knowledge they have
D. share their experience of fitting into a team
37. The third and fourth paragraphs are mainly about ________.
A. what the research found out B. who the research focused on
C. why the research was important D. how the research was carried out
38. During the pandemic, to make your human and social capital noticeable, you need to ________.
A. work out new ways for a mixed work model
B. design interesting online meetings for your team
C. speak up in both challenging and supportive ways
D. have as many in-person interactions with coworkers as possible
39. What do you know about preference for teammates from the passage?
A. People using challenging voice are more likely to be accepted.
B. The ability to come up with new ideas plays a more decisive role.
C. A friendly attitude outweighs the ability to deal with difficult tasks.
D. The desire to get others’ trust is more valued than to build social ties.
八、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共10分，每小题2分）
阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
Most people hope to have a memory which helps them succeed in study, work and life. Can memory be
improved? Luckily, hundreds of studies in the past 50 years have already given us a definite answer.
A healthy lifestyle keeps your brain young and memory sharp. First of all, it is necessary to have a healthy
diet. Eating more food rich in Vitamin B and Vitamin E, such as vegetables and lean meat, helps you have a better
memory. Doing exercise can keep your brain alive, too. Proper exercise provides much needed oxygen for the
brain. Running, riding a bike, swimming and even walking two or three times a week are helpful. Moreover, getting
enough sleep is important. Only when your brain gets a good rest, can it work well. The healthier your lifestyle is,
the better your memory will become, but do not expect a sudden change — it takes a long time to make a
difference.
Memory skills help you remember things better. The following three are the most widely used. Chunking is a
way of remembering a piece of information by cutting it into smaller ones. For example, to memorize a ten-digit
telephone number 2127983630, you can divide the digits into three groups: first 212, then 798, and lastly 3630.
This method is far more effective than remembering a string of 10 digits. Organization means organizinginformation into groups of the same kind. For example, trees, grass and flowers are plants; tigers, pandas, horses
and cows are animals. Imagery is remembering newly learnt information by us ing your imagination and
connecting it with something that you are familiar with.
However, memory skills will hardly work if you don’t understand the information. Only a regular review can
make the memory last long. That is why students are always advised to go over what they have learnt after one day
and then after three days, and then use it as regularly as possible.
Human brains are like muscles that need nutrients and exercise to become stronger. If you make a few lifestyle
changes and try some memory skills, you can certainly improve your memory.
