Liao Wentao, a pet undertaker, put the body of 2-year-old Garfield on a small bed
surrounded by flowers. Then he let the cat's owner say a last goodbye before cremation (火化).
“We send off 400 to 500 pets each year, and there's a great demand for pet funerals (葬礼),” he
said.
Keeping pets has become a trend for young people in China and people are more than willing
to pay for whatever their pets need. From 2019 to 2021, China's pet market grew by almost 18%
and hit 348.8 billion yuan in value in 2021, according to a report by iResearch Consulting Group.
As the pet economy develops, animal lovers' various needs have boosted the emergence and
development of related businesses such as bathing, pet food, pet beauty and healthcare. In addition
to basic services, pet owners are increasingly paying for many new services, such as training,
funerals, insurance, photography and entertainment. The growing pet market has also given birth
to a large number of new pet-related jobs.
Liu Wei, 33, is a famous pet detective in Shanghai. He and his team work on finding families'
lost pets. “We have successfully helped find more than 1,000 pets. Besides cats and dogs, there are
other pets like birds, lizards and hamsters,” Liu said. “In many big cities, cats and dogs have
become an important part of many families and are taken good care of. So what we look for are
not just pets, but family members.”
Apart from pet undertakers and detectives, some people work as pet food testers, pet sitters
and pet trainers. According to Tu Di, secretary-general of the Hunan Pet Industry Association, the
booming pet market shows people's improved living standards. That's great.However, there are also problems with the industry, for example, the high fees of taking pets
to the vet (兽医). Many pet owners have called for stricter pricing regulations for pet medical
services.
24.Why is Liao's story mentioned in the first paragraph?
A.To lead in the topic.
B.To teach readers a lesson.
C.To arouse readers' pity.
D.To involve readers in a discussion.
25.How does the author show the pet market is growing?
A.By showing experts' words.
B.By telling some old stories.
C.By giving numbers and examples.
D.By stressing the importance of pets.
26.What is Tu Di's attitude toward the booming pet market?
A.Worried. B.Doubtful. C.Unconcerned. D.Positive.
27.What is a concern of the growing pet industry?
A.The pet care. B.The related regulations.
C.The quality of services. D.The great need of vets.

A few weeks ago, I posted an article about timeboxing on my social media. In response,
some people wrote to me explaining how they also struggle with productivity and never-ending to-
do lists. I learned I'm not the only one who religiously adds unplanned tasks onto my list just to
feel the satisfaction of crossing them off. Why do we continue to use our never-ending lists? Are
to-do lists actually helpful?
Researchers E. J. Masicampo and Roy F. Baumeister tell me more about the psychology
behind to-do lists. The to-do list becomes quite appealing because it helps us to offload some
burden. When we write information down on a to-do list or post-it, we feel mitigatory from the
need to hold onto it mentally. With the mountain of tasks we have to do each day, we can't only
rely on our ability to remember them. To-do lists serve as a reminder for what you need to
accomplish. When we check things off, it's proof that we were able to get stuff done and thatmakes us feel good. So I think it is reasonable to suspect that there is some physiological benefit
to organizing our tasks and goals externally.
However, there are many reasons to suspect to-do lists are effective. If there is a downside to
to-do lists, I think it is that they do not go far enough toward committing us to doing the work. To
enter a task onto one's to-do list is sometimes a way of saying, “I'll do this later.” Can we
minimize the negatives? Probably. If every time we added an item to our to-do lists we also came
up with a plan to specify “what actions” we need to take and “when” those actions need to be
taken.
My recommendation is to motivate and inspire yourself. There is a saying that goes: Do what
you love, love what you do. When what you're doing is stuff you want to do, you'll end up relying
less on to-do lists to get it done and go more out of your way to do it.
28.Why does the author use to-do lists?
A.To develop a good habit.
B.To have a sense of achievement.
C.To meet the leader's requirement.
D.To avoid forgetting important things.
29.What does the underlined word “mitigatory” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Relieved. B.Stuck. C.Insecure. D.Energetic.
30.How can we overcome the disadvantages of to-do lists?
A.By making everyday task a routine.
B.By removing some unnecessary items.
C.By making yourselves more organized.
D.By scheduling and carrying out a specific plan.
31.What can be the best title for the text?
A.The more tools you have, the better
B.Do what you love, love what you do
C.How many people manage to-do lists
D.Why we continue to rely on to-do lists
D
It was a giant as far as penguins go.The researchers estimate that the previously unknown species of the giant prehistoric
penguin, which walked around off the east coast of New Zealand between 55 and 60 million years
ago, probably weighed about 220 pounds and was around 5 feet 10 inches tall. “That's about as tall
as a medium-sized man,” says Gerald Mayr, a paleontologist at the Senckenberg Research
Institute and Natural History Museum in Franfurt, Germany, and the lead author of the new study.
“This particular specimen is one of the largest known fossil penguins.” The largest living penguin,
on the other hand, the emperor penguin, is a good bit shorter—around 4 feet.
The scientists have named the new species Kumimanu biceae, which means “monster bird”
in the Maori language. While giant prehistoric penguins may seem strange to us, they were pretty
common millions of years ago. There has been evidence of giant prehistoric penguins, but they've
all been younger than the new discovery. Take for example Anthropornis nordenskjoeldi, which
was similar in size to the newly discovered species. It lived in Antarctica between 33 to 45 million
years ago. Then there was Icadyptes salasi, which was almost 5 feet tall and lived in what is now
Peru about 36 million years ago.
What this new species shows is that penguins evolved to be big very early in their evolution,
says Ewan Fordyce, a paleontologist at the University of Otago, New Zealand. “It's a few million
years after the extinction of the dinosaurs,” says Fordyce. With the giant reptiles gone, it may have
opened “new ecological opportunities” to birds like penguins, allowing them to break through “a
glass ceiling of evolutionary size”, he says. The oceans may also have allowed penguins to get so
big. “Giant penguins were occupying the seas about 20 million years before whales entered the
oceans,” he says. No whales, no seals, no marine mammals.
And scientists think that large marine mammals—whales, walruses, seals—are why giant
penguins eventually became extinct, leaving us with smaller, cuter birds we all adore.
32.What's the second paragraph mainly about?
A.The progress of the new research.
B.The evolution of the prehistoric penguin.
C.The characteristics of the prehistoric penguin.
D.The link between the prehistoric penguin and the emperor penguin.
33.What do we know about the prehistoric penguin?
A.It came into being earlier than dinosaurs.B.It died out mainly because of climate change.
C.It is almost the double size of the emperor penguin.
D.It may be the largest and oldest penguin found so far.
34.Which of the following does the last two paragraphs show?
A.The fittest survive.
B.Disasters have no mercy.
C.The loss outweighs the gain.
D.Live in harmony with nature.
35.What is the text?
A.A book review. B.A news report.
C.A short story. D.A diary entry.

When it comes to tricking yourself into saving more money, think like a squirrel. Just like
squirrels burying nuts to prepare for winter, we can squirrel money in order to prepare for
economic dry spells. 3 6
How squirreling away money helps you save more
The concept of being a financial squirrel comes down to minimizing the risk of keeping all
your savings in one place, and maximizing the rewards of building several different accounts,
especially if you aren't interested in investing your money in long-term vehicles. 3 7
Personally, I like to think of it like “hiding” my own savings from myself. 3 8 An easy
way to do this is to create an extra savings account for the purpose of forgetting its existence—
until you absolutely need to tap into it.
Squirrel away your money to stay on top of your goals
The squirrel mentality is also useful for visualizing different savings goals. 3 9 You
might have a standard rainy day fund, a summer travel fund, a back-up rent fund, a new car fund,
and so on. It's much easier to track your savings progress when these funds are divided into
different accounts.There are plenty of reasons you might choose saving over investing. 4 0 So if you
mentally struggle to set aside savings, consider “hiding” it from yourself in multiple places—like
a squirrel and their precious nuts.
A.Here are lessons we can take.
B.It makes me far less likely to dip into savings.
C.They don't store all their nuts in one place.
D.Concentrate more on saving money rather than on spending it.
E.One of the biggest reasons is that you have short-term goals for your money.
F.For instance, you can start naming different accounts based on what they're for.
G.It's useful to trick yourself by shrinking the amount of savings you can see at one time.

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。
Tess was eight years old when she heard her mom and dad talking about her little brother,
Andrew. All she knew was that he was very sick and they were out of money. They were moving
to an apartment next month because Dad didn't have the money for the house. Only a very costly
surgery could save Andrew and it was looking like there was no one to lend them the money. She
heard Dad say to her tearful mother with whispered desperation,“Only a miracle can save him
now.”Tess went to her bedroom and pulled a glass jar from its hiding place. She poured all the
change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Carefully placing the coins back in the jar and
twisting on the cap, she slipped out the back door and made her way to Rexall's Drug Store. She
waited patiently for the pharmacist (药剂师) to give her some attention but he was too busy. Tess
twisted her feet to make a noise. Nothing.
Finally she took a quarter from her jar and banged it on the glass counter. That did it!
“And what do you want?” the pharmacist asked in an annoyed tone of voice. “I'm talking to
my brother from Chicago whom I haven't seen in ages.”
“Well, I want to talk to you about my brother,” Tess answered,“he's really, really sick... and
I want to buy a miracle.”
“I beg your pardon?” said the pharmacist.
“His name is Andrew and he has something bad growing inside his head and my dad says
only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?”
“We don't sell miracles. I'm sorry but I can't help you,” the pharmacist said.
The pharmacist's brother was a well-dressed man. He bent down and asked the little
girl,“What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”
“I don't know,” Tess replied with her eyes welling up. “I just know he's really sick and
Mommy says he needs an operation. But my dad can't pay for it, so I want to use my money .”
