My neighbor Orlando is a Paramedic(急救医士). He and his wife are some of the nicest people I have ever met. A few years back we started this sort of “favor war”, where one of us would do something for the other, such as shoveling(铲)their driveway or helping them build a shed, and next time the other would try to top it with another favor.
Yesterday morning there was maybe 2 or 3 feet of snow on the ground and I remembered he shoveled my driveway for me last snowfall. So I took out my shovel and took care of both our sidewalks and driveways because it was time to do a favor back. It took a while but I finished and got into my car for work. What I didn’t realize was that Orlando had to work that day too.
Fast forward to this morning I got a knock on my door. It was him. He immediately shook my hand and informed me that because I shoveled his driveway and sidewalk for him, he was able to get to work earlier. As soon as he started his shift, a call came through that a young boy was in a medical emergency. Luckily he and hi s partner were only about 2 minutes away, but the next closest ambulance was in 10 minutes. This kid did not have 10 minutes. He barely had 2 minutes. Because my neighbor got to work sooner, the young boy got to live his life.
This isn’t humble brag(吹牛). This is to inform others that even the smallest favors can have the biggest impacts. It wasn’t too much of trouble to shovel his driveway for him, but because I did, the young kid got to see his family again, go back to school again, talk to his friends again and live his life.
46. What can we know about the writer and Orlando?
A. They once had a conflict. B. They are always ready to help each other.
C. They favor shoveling snow together. D. They signed a favorable agreement.
47. Who saved the boy before it was too late?
A. The writer. B. The boy’s parents.
C. Orlando and his partner. D. Orlando and his wife.
48. What does the writer intend to tell us?
A. Never ask for trouble. B. One cannot always be lucky.
C. Don’t lose heart in an emergency. D. No favor is too small.

Treasure hunts have excited people’s imagination for hundreds of years both in real life and in books such as Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island. Kit Williams, a modern writer, had the idea of combining the real excitement of a treasure hunt with clues found in a book when he wrote a children’s story, Masquerade, in 1979. The book was about a rabbit, and a month before it came out Williams buried a gold rabbit in a park in Bedlordshire. The book contained a large number of clues to help readers find the rabbit, but Williams put in a lot of “red herrings”, or false clues, to mislead them.
Ken Roberts, the man who found the rabbit, had been looking for it nearly two years. Although he had been searching in the wrong area most of the time, he found it by logic, not by luck. His success came from the fact that he had gained an important clue at the start. He had realized that the words “One of Six to Eight” under the first picture in the book connected the rabbit in some way to Katherine of Aragon, the first of Henry VIII’s six wives. Even here, however, Williams had succeeded in misleading him. Ken knew that Katherine of Aragon had died at Kimbolton in Cambrideshire in 1536 and thought that Williams had buried the rabbit there. He had been digging there for over a year before he came up with a new idea. He found out that Kit Williams had spent his childhood near Ampthill, in Bedfordshire, and thought that he must have buried the rabbit in a place he knew well, but he still could not see the connection with Katherine of Aragon, until one day he came across two stone crosses in Ampthill Park and learnt that they had been built in her honor in 1773.
Even then his search had not come to an end. It was only after he had spent several nights digging around the cross that he decided to write to Kit Williams to find out if he was wasting his time there. Williams encouraged him to continue, and on February 24th 1982, he found the treasure. It was worth £3000 in the beginning, but the excitement it had caused since its burial made it much more valuable.
49. The underlined word “them” (paragraph 1) .
A. readers of Masquerade B. treasure hunts
C. Henry VIII’s six wives D. red herrings
50. What is the most important clue in the story to help Ken Roberts find the rabbit?
A. Two stone crosses in Ampthill B. Stevenson’s Treasure Island
C. Williams’ hometown. D. Katherine of Aragon
51. The stone crosses in Ampthill were built .
A. to tell about what happened in 1773. B. to serve as a road sign in Ampthill Park.
C. to show respect for Henry VIII’s first wife. D. to inform people where the gold rabbit was.
52. Which of the following describes Roberts’ logic in searching for the rabbit?
a. Henry VIII’s six wives
b. Katherine’s burial place at Kimbolton
c. Williams’ childhood in Ampthill
d. Katherine of Aragon
e. stone crosses in Ampthill Park
A. a-b-c-e-d B. d-b-c-e-a C. b-a-e-c-d D. a-d-b-c-e

Edward Wilson is America’s, if not the world’s, leading naturalist. In The Future of Life, he takes us on a tour of the world’s natural resources. How are they used? What has been lost? What remains and is it able to continue with the present speed of use? Wilson also points out the need to understand fully the biodiversity of our earth.
Wilson begins with an open letter to the pioneer in environment protection, Henry David Thoreau. He compares today’s Walden Pond with that of Thoreau’s day. Wilson will use such comparisons for the rest of the book. The problem is clear:man has done great damage to his home over the years. Can the earth, with human help, be made to return to biodiversity levels that will be able to support us in the future?
Biodiversity, Wilson argues, is the key to settling many problems the earth faces today. Even our agricultural crops can gain advantages from it. A mere hundred species are the basis of our food supply, of which but twenty carry the load. Wilson suggests changing this situation by looking into ten thousand species that could be made use of, which will be a way to reduce the clearing of the natural homes of plants and animals to enlarge farming areas.
At the end of the book, Wilson discusses the importance of human values in considering the environment. If you are to continue to live on the earth, you may as well read and act on the ideas in this book.
53. What does Wilson care most about?
A. The biodiversity of our earth. B. The environment for plants.
C. The wastes of natural resources. D. The importance of human values.
54. How many species are most important to our present food supply?
A. Ten thousand. B. One hundred. C. Twenty. D. Eighty.
55. What does Wilson suggest to keep biodiversity?
A. Building homes for some dying species.
B. Using more species for food.
C. Learning how to farm scientifically.
D. Making it clear what to eat.
56. What do you think the text is?
A. An introduction to a scientist. B. A description of natural resources.
C. A research report. D. A book review.

Pangolins are the most trafficked(非法交易)mammals in the world and are facing extinction. To draw attention to these scaly(有鳞片的), anteater-like animals, a new wildlife documentary, Eye of the Pangolin, is attempting a unique way to inspire action and conservation:access. Partnering with the non-profit organization Pangolin. Africa, the documentary was made available on in May The intention is to reach communities wherever the Internet is available , especially African communities, who live near the animal’s habitats.
Over two years, the documentary crew traveled to South Africa, Ghana, Central African Republic and Gabon in search of the four unique species of pangolin, which has never been achieved before. Filmmakers Bruce Young and Johan Vermeulen say that they went into the shoot knowing relatively little about pangolins, but grew to respect and appreciate the animals. Getting close to the creatures over two years was a crash course in these secretive creatures. Johan Vermeulen said, “One thing however that might seem unimportant is that they are actually quite fussy eaters. You would think they would eat any type of ant, but they all prefer a specific type ant.”
Pangolins are hunted illegally across Africa for their scales, which are used for traditional medicine, and their meat. In April 2019, Singaporean customs officials conducted two separate seizures of 24 tons of pangolin scales, which equals to the death of 69, 000 pangolins.
Though the documentary focuses less on the trafficking of pangolins, and more on the animals in their natural habitat, the aim of the documentary is to inspire viewers around the world to call for action to end trafficking and protecting these unique creatures.
Filmed on location in South Africa, Ghana, Central African Republic, and Gabon, this powerful documentary is the story of two men a mission to get all four species of African pangolin camera for the very first time.
57. What s the purpose of the documentary?
A. To study the situation of pangolins. B. To collect fund to protect pangolins.
C. To throw light on pangolin protection. D. To propose setting up pangolin reserves.
58. What do we know about those filmmakers?
A. They once shot pangolins by mistake.
B. They have never filmed pangolins before.
C. They came across crash accidents occasionally.
D. They have a better knowledge of pangolins now.
59. What is the meaning of the underlined word “fussy” in paragraph2?
A. Picky. B. Messy. C. Hungry. D. Heavy.
60. What’s the documentary mainly about?
A. The illegal trade of pangolins.
B. The life of pangolins in their natural habitats.
C. The medical function of pangolin’s scales.
D. The efforts of Pangolin, Africa to save pangolins.

We all agree that we should recycle more at home, in the office or when out and about. 61 As a result, they can be collected and taken to the right place for recycling. This is what the process of sorting allows us to do.
62 And the effective sorting needs to happen first in our own home, and second in sorting plants to which waste is collected. When you put a plastic bottle in the right recycling bag or bin, you are helping sort recyclable things so that the right material can be fed into the right recycling process. If sorting does not happen, a lot of recyclable materials can end up in landfills. It will lead to valuable resources lost from our economy.
63 For instance, in Brussels consumers put plastic packaging, cans and soft drink cartons in blue bags designed for recyclable packaging;paper in yellow bags for recycling;and glass needs to be taken to specific collection bins. Somewhat differently, in Vienna(Austria), citizens can expect their paper, metal, glass and plastic to be separately collected in different weeks of the year. .
Once recyclable materials are collected from your home, they are further sorted in specialized facilities which ensure the quality of the recycling process. 61 Traditionally, sorting has been done either by hand with workers sorting what can be recycled and picking out the materials to be thrown away. Today, however, new sorting technologies are being developed in order to speed up the process of sorting but to also cause better results. Exciting technologies using magnets (磁铁) or optical systems are being used to effectively sort materials so more of them can be recycled.
A. Packaging is the first step towards recycling.
B. For effective recycling we need effective sorting.
C. So citizens need to be aware of their local collection system.
D. This is where different sorting techniques come into play.
E. The rest were landfilled or burned even though they could have been recycled or reused.
F. Collection systems can be very different from country to country.
G. But for materials to be recycled, hey first need to find their way to the right waste bin.

阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Elephants can tell
It is easy for us to tell our friends from our enemies. But can other animals do the same? Elephants can! They can use their sense of vision and smell to tell the difference between people who pose a threat and those who do not.
In Kenya, researchers found that elephants react differently to clothing worn by men of the Maasai and Kamba ethnic groups. Young Maasai men kill animals and thus pose a threat to elephants; Kamba men are mainly farmers and are not a danger to elephants.
In an experiment conducted by animal scientists, elephants were first presented with clean clothing or clothing that had been worn for five days by either a Maasai or a Kamba man. When the elephants recognized the smell of clothing worn by a Maasai man, they moved away from the smell faster and took longer to relax than when they recognized the smells of either clothing worn by a Kamba man or clothing that had not been worn at all.
Clothing color also plays a role, though in a different way. In the same study, when the elephants saw red clothing not worn before, they reacted angrily, as red is typically worn by Maasai men. Rather than running away as they did with the smell, the elephants acted aggressively(攻击性地) toward the red clothing.
The researchers believe that the elephants’ emotional reactions are because of their different understanding of the smells and the sights. Smelling a potential danger means that a threat is nearby and the best thing to do is run away and hide. Seeing a potential threat without its smell means that risk is low. Therefor, instead of showing fear and running away, the elephants express their anger and become aggressive.
