    Many people consider “being alone” an awful thing, for they think it either means you're anti­social, or unwanted. However, being alone isn't necessarily a bad thing. 1..

When you start to enjoy being alone, you'll get in touch with your own feelings. 2.. With that knowledge, it's then easier to manage your feelings.

Being alone makes you reflect more. 3., you're burning a lot of energy. Being alone is to the contrary. It provides the perfect environment for reflection. Since you aren't spending so much time processing the thoughts and feelings of others, it's the best time to turn your focus inward.

4.. Being in the company of other people can be entertaining. However, it can also seriously affect your concentration. Without disturbance, you can just put your head down and get to work.

Being alone gives you more freedom to do what you like. When you're constantly connected by other people, you're always making compromises to find solutions that the entire group can enjoy. Unfortunately, the things you want most may not always line up with what others want. 5..

Are you alone right now? Are you the person to see a movie alone? If there's no one to go with you, but it's a movie you're longing for, please enjoy it!

A.Being alone can be more productive

B.When you are in a state of being alone

C.When you're surrounded by other people

D.A handful of benefits will appear once you learn to enjoy being alone

E.You'll create a deeper understanding of what makes you happy and upset

F.So it's easy to enjoy being alone once you realize the great benefits it brings to you

G.Once you enjoy being alone, you'll come to find you enjoy the company of others even more

 

1.D 2.E 3.C 4.A 5.F 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了独处的好处。 1.根据前句However, being alone isn't necessarily a bad thing. 然而,独处并不一定是坏事,并且第二段首句提到的enjoy being alone可知,此处应该讲独处的好处。D. A handful of benefits will appear once you learn to enjoy being alone. 一旦你开始享受独处,你将看到一大把独处的好处。D选项中enjoy being alone起承上启下的作用,故选D。 2.根据上句When you start to enjoy being alone, you'll get in touch with your own feelings. 当你开始享受独处时,你将了解你自己的感觉。E. You'll create a deeper understanding of what makes you happy and upset. 你将更加深层次的理解你的喜怒哀乐。进一步地说明your own feelings,故选E。 3.根据下一句“you're burning a lot of energy.”可知,你将消耗大量精力。以及“Being alone is to the contrary.”独处正相反。所以可以判断,此处应该讲述与独处相反的事情。C. When you're surrounded by other people,当你和其他人在一起时,引起下文,故选C。 4.此空设在第四段的段首,故此空应该是第四段的主旨句。分析第四段的内容However, it can also seriously affect your concentration. Without disturbance, you can just put your head down and get to work. 可知,和其他人在一起会分散注意力。若没人打扰你将专注于工作。故此段主要讲述独处的好处—提高生产力。A. Being alone can be more productive. 独处有时效率更高。故选A。 5.根据本段中心句Being alone gives you more freedom to do what you like. 可知,独处时你将更加自由地做自己喜欢的事。根据上句Unfortunately, the things you want most may not always line up with what others want.可知,你最喜欢做的事情并不一定和别人同步。F.

    Pangolins (穿山甲) 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. Partnering with the non-profit organization Pangolin. Africa, the documentary was made available on YouTube in May 2019. 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 on a mission to get all four species of African pangolin on camera for the very first time.

1.What is the purpose of the documentary?

A.To study the situation of pangolins.

B.To collect fund to protect pangolins.

C.To raise awareness of pangolin protection.

D.To propose setting up pangolin reserves.

2.What is the meaning of the underlined word “fussy” in paragraph 2?

A.Picky. B.Messy.

C.Showy. D.Heavy.

3.What’s the documentary mainly about?

A.The illegal trade of pangolins.

B.The medical function of pangolin's scales.

C.The life of pangolins in their natural habitats.

D.The efforts of Pangolin, Africa to save pangolins.

4.Where is the text most likely from?

A.A brochure. B.A diary.

C.A novel. D.A magazine.

    'There's no place like home. 'This English saying has much truth in itthe best place to be is surrounded by our treasured possessions and our loved ones and with a roof over our head. And for many young adults, it's the only affordable place to stay; somewhere where they can receive first-class service from mum and dad. But this comes at a price!

In some countries, it's quite traditional for people in their late teens and early 20s to live at home with their parents, but in other places, flying the nest to start their own independent life is very desirable. But there's been a growing trend, in the UK at least, for young people to return home to live-or not to leave home at all.

A survey by a price comparison website found that 18% of adult children in the UK said they were moving back home because of debt, compared with 8% last year. More young people had lost their jobs, and others couldn't afford their rent compared with the previous year. So, it's easy to see why they're increasingly becoming home birds.

The BBC's Lucy Hooker explains that many returning adult children enjoy home comforts. But for the 'hoteliers', that's mum and dad, the survey found the average cost to them has gone up sharply, and that they are sacrificing luxuries and holidays to look after their 'big kids'. Emma Craig from Money supermarket says " they're trying to look after their children more. If your child comes home and you see them struggling financially, you feel more awkward asking them for rent or to contribute. It tugs on your heartstrings more. "

With parents splashing out around 1, 886 on takeaway food, buying new furniture and upgrading their Wi-Fi for the benefit of their offspring, it's easy for the returning children to put their feet up and make themselves at home. That's before they learn a home truth-that one day it might be their own kids who'll be checking into the hotel of mum and dad!

1.Which proverb might present the young British's living conditions?  ______

A.A lazy youth, an awful age.

B.East or west, home is best.

C.Two heads are better than one.

D.Nothing comes wrong to a hungry man.

2.Which might be the reason for the increase of home birds?  ______

A.The popularity of living independently.

B.Looking after their old parents.

C.The increase of unemployment rate.

D.Their parents' financial offer.

3.What's Emma Craig's attitude towards home birds? ______

A.Doubtful.  B.Uncertain.

C.Objective.  D.Understandable.

4.What is the last paragraph mainly about? ______

A.Returning to live with parents comes at a price.

B.Parents are willing to receive their returning children.

C.Flying the net is becoming popular at present.

D.Home birds take it for granted to live with their parents.

    As a first responder, you never know what type of situation you might walk into, or who you’ll meet along the way. That’s definitely been the case for Jeffrey Lanenberg, a 51-year-old paramedic(急救医务人员) since 1984.

Ten years into the job, Lanenberg received a call that reported that a man in his early 30s had fallen down in the Mall of America. When Lanenberg and his partner arrived at the scene, they found the young male face down on the ground. He had gone unconscious, making weak attempts to breathe. His wife stood beside him holding their small son in horror. They quickly rushed to defibrillate(除颤) and calm the man to keep him under control. After Lanenberg dropped the patient off at the neighboring hospital, he thought about the man and his family for a long time.

Lanenberg thought he had experienced everything under the sun until one random visit to Office Max three years ago, where he met a man repeatedly walk back and forth while staring at him. As it turned out, the man was the patient he had saved 20 years earlier.

You gave me 20 years more than I ever thought I’d have, the man said. He thanked Lanenberg repeatedly and told him he had someone he wanted him to meet. He stepped around the corner and reappeared with a 20-something-year-old man. Lanenberg instantly knew that it was the son he had seen standing by his mother all those years ago.

That day changed my life, Lanenberg said. Before that, everything was about work…When I talk to my beginner-training class, I tell them you never know the impact you can have on someone’s life.

1.What did Lanenberg do with the young man?

A.He gave the man the first aid. B.He cured the man at the scene.

C.He only sent the man to hospital. D.He took care of the man’s wife and son.

2.What did Lanenberg think of the encounter with the man?

A.It was unbelievable. B.It was a common routine.

C.It was a matter of course. D.It was a dangerous situation.

3.Why was the man thankful to Lanenberg?

A.Lanenberg helped bring up his little son.

B.Lanenberg donated to support his family.

C.Lanenberg gave him the present happy life.

D.Lanenberg taught his son to be a new doctor.

4.How did the meeting change Lanenberg’s life?

A.He changed his attitude to his job.

B.He was rewarded with much money.

C.He got a promotion to be a team leader.

D.He took up teaching work to train newcomers.
