BOjok Okello’s dream to build a city in his father’s home village began with a small house. When he set foot
there in Northern Uganda for the first time in 2013, he wanted to build a small mud brick house where he could
spend time with his extended family in Okere. But the poverty of his dad’s village nagged at him.
So in 2018 he returned. By that time, he’d earned a master’s degree in rural development, where he studied up
on various kinds of aid projects. International projects often didn’t work in places like Northern Uganda, he’d
begun to realize, because they saw locals as recipients, not cooperators. So when he decided to help rebuild Okere,
he believed it had to be done differently.
He began asking locals what their most pressing challenges were. At the time, the nearest school was 2.5 miles
away, and had few teachers and books.
So Mr. Okello took out his savings and in 2019 began building a small kindergarten. Later, he began another
program to help adults learn to read and write. This fall, after Okere residents said they needed a way to make
money, Mr. Okello began to experiment with processing small nuts, which residents mostly women—collect and
turn into butter for cooking and cosmetics.
But his project has run into some of the same challenges as other development projects in the region. It needs
money. To date, almost all of the project has been funded by Mr. Okello’s savings. He’s open to donor support, as
long as donors are willing to back what the community says it needs rather than impose their own agenda. And so
far, he’s had some donors. But the question of funding remains a lasting one. Mr. Okello says he plans to keep
using his own money until he has none left to give. “New York City was built by someone. Okere will also be
built.” he says. “The most important thing is that its foundation has already been laid.”
41. What do the underlined words “nagged at” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Encouraged. B. Transformed. C. Honored. D. Worried.
42. Why did international aid projects fail to work in Northern Uganda?
A. They lacked money. B. They couldn’t find cooperators.
C. They didn’t get locals involved. D. They lacked experts in rural development.
43. What did Mr. Okello do for Okere residents?
A. He met their educational needs.
B. He sponsored their schoolchildren.
C. He taught at the local kindergarten.
D. He found jobs for women in a cosmetic factory.
44. What’s the main challenge of Mr. Okello’s project?
A. It’s short of money.
B. It is not welcomed by the locals.C. There are not enough participants in it.
D. It doesn’t change the poverty of the village.
45. What does Mr. Okello want donors to do?
A. Help lay the foundation for Okere.
B. Solve real problems of the community.
C. Put forward their own construction plans.
D. Launch as many development projects as possible.
C
Nearly one year after the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic, students across Chicago and the suburbs in the
US say when it comes to high school, the thrill is gone. Simple pleasures such as getting together with friends in the
hallways and catching up over lunch in the cafeteria are displaced by a dystopian (反乌托邦的) landscape of
remote learning and virtual extracurricular.
After 11 months of remote learning, and what many teens describe as the soul-crushing disappointment of
canceled after school activities, experts say a growing number of teens are now struggling with anxiety and
depression due to heightened levels of stress and social isolation.
Still, the following stories shared by high school students from Chicago and the suburbs provide a glimmer of
hope that for some, the pandemic-era heartbreak might develop a generation of resilient (有韧性的) young adults
who will be better equipped to deal with life’s twists and turns.
Students who participate in speech, an activity that combines drama and public speaking, have been able to
continue this school year, albeit (尽管) over the internet. Instead of delivering emotional monologues (独白) and
duets (二重唱) to a live panel of judges, they must summon their best performances while looking into a webcam.
“Dueting is so frustrating when it comes to online,” said Jaylah Hogg, 17, a junior at Thornton Township High
School in Harvey. “Wi-Fi at my house is pretty good but my partner’s isn’t. So it’s like I’m trying to time her lines
in my head because she’s blanking out when she’s talking. Sometimes the judges do hold that against us.”
,
But it hasn’t been all bad. After nearly a year of remote learning Deerfield High School freshman Ben Segall,
15, said he was excited that the school was expected to finally welcome students back into the building for a hybrid
program later this month.
The pandemic has also crushed the athletic seasons for sports at many high schools including Senn High
School in the Edgewater neighborhood. There, Davion Holmes is staying focused on applying to Wilberforce,
Ohio-based Central State University.
And with some of the recent updates to the Illinois High School Association’s COVID-19 guidelines, Holmes
said he remained hopeful, albeit realistic, about finally resuming his high school athletic career in the monthsahead.
“I didn’t want to have to live through a pandemic, but I worked through it, and that’s something I’ll be able to
tell my kids and grandkids someday,” he added.
46. What is a major problem with remote learning?
A. The heavy workload. B. The lack of social interaction.
C. The large number of students in class. D. The high levels of stress in class.
47. Why did Jaylah Hogg find online dueting frustrating?
A. The Wi-Fi at her house was dissatisfactory.
B. It was hard to work as a team online.
C. The judges failed to do their job well.
D. She felt nervous in front of the webcam.
48. What does Davion Holmes think of the pandemic?
A. It allowed him to focus on applying to universities.
B. It made little difference to his athletic career.
C. It is something that has made him stronger.
D. It’s the last thing he wants to mention in the future.
49. What’s the main purpose of the article?
A. To describe the pandemic’s influence on teens.
B. To present different views on the pandemic.
.
C To call for attention to students’ mental health.
D. To encourage teens to be positive toward school life.
50. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Athletic Career B. Monologues and Duets
C. Best Performances D. Adapting to Change
D
We are all born social and company to live happy and fruitful life. Healthy and supportive mutual relationships
help reduce stress and promote the, physical, mental and emotional well-being by building skills like time
management, assertiveness( 坚定自信), sociability and empathy.
Making friends has made me feel secure. However, I have to be cautious to pick up friends sharing similar
tastes and values. In addition, having added to one’s circle of friends helps one feel supported.
It is true that finding time to cultivate relationships is all about effective time management. My busy uncle
finds time to catch up with family and friends during his tea and lunch breaks. Similarly my friend Somya uses her
time on her way back home from work in her chauffeur-driven car to catch up with people. The modern inventionsof SMS and e-mail help send wishes for birthdays and anniversaries to show your love and care.
Assertiveness is as much applicable to relationships. My friend Mohana emphasizes that neither being a
passive observer nor being aggressive helps relationships. It is assertiveness in our relationships that opens the lines
of effective communication. It emphasizes helping friends in need and also strengthens mutually supportive
relationships.
It is also true that assertiveness by intuition promotes discretion(自行决定权) of friends and helps Lalitha
distinguish positive people from drains of energy. She can easily figure this out by the flow of the conversation, the
way each feels understood, accepted and supported, and by how I feel, happy, bored or energized in the
relationship. It also helps to know whether all benefit from each other’s positive aspects.
Handling stress in life is all about cultivating mutually supportive relationships and working on them. Manisha
always says she feels great when sharing her feelings after a hard day with people who share similar ideas. Actually
we all need someone who would not just hear us, but listen to us, and we need to cultivate the art of listening and
understanding people.
51. A busy person can develop his social relationships by________.
A. inviting friends for dinner B. making friends with strangers
C. working hard for high positions D. getting together in the intervals of business
52. Which of the following helps build mutually supportive social relationships?
A. Being passive. B. Being assertive.
C. Being aggressive. D. Being relaxed.
53. A person most needs supportive social relationships when he/she is________.
A. lonely B. bored C. stressed D. energetic
54. From the passage, who can positively get supportive social relationship?
A. Manisha. B. Mohana. C. Lalitha. D. Somya.
55. What is mainly discussed in the passage?
A. How should we handle our stress in life?
B. What is to be done for applicable relationships?
C. How can we pick up friends supporting us?
D. How people build mutually supportive social relationship?

阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题
Eleven-year-old Ruby Kate has long been close to older folks. Her mother, Amanda Chitsey, works at nursing
homes in northwest Arkansas, and Ruby Kate often goes with her in the summer. “I’ve never found them scary atall, so I’m able to just go up to them and ask if they need anything,” she says.
Last May, Ruby Kate noticed a resident named Pearl staring out a window. She seemed sad. “What are you
looking at?” Ruby Kate asked. Pearl said she was watching her dog being led away by his new owner after a visit.
Pearl didn’t know when she would see her dog again.
Ruby Kate and Amanda asked around and discovered that the nursing home didn’t allow residents to have
dogs and Pearl couldn’t afford to pay anyone to look after hers. The Chitseys also learned that many nursing home
residents are unable to afford even the smallest luxuries. So Ruby Kate decided to do something about it.
She started by asking residents what three things they wanted most in the world. “That’s a lot simpler than
going, ‘Hey, what do you want?’” she explains. “They can understand you better.” Amanda worried that people
would ask for cars and other things an 11-year-old wouldn’t be able to provide. Instead, they asked for chocolate
bars, McDonald’s fries, pants that fit properly, and even just a prayer.
“It broke me as a human,” Amanda says. “We left the nursing home that day and went straight to a store and
bought as many items as we could.” Using their own money, the Chitseys granted the wishes of about 100 people in
three months.
Then they started asking for donations, set up a GoFundMe page, Three Wishes for Ruby’s Residents, and
raised more than $250,000 in five months. One of their new goals is to set up a communal laptop in one nursing
home in each state.Ruby Kate doesn’t plan to stop there. “I consider kindness to be my hobby,” she says, “and I’m
very good at it.”
