The site's design is bright and clear, suitable for its young target audiences, but ifs a shame that none of the activities offered take advantage of the interactive （交互式的）qualities of the net. In the current climate of technological progress, being asked to print out and complete a word search puzzle by hand could best be described as “strange”.BBC World ServiceThis is a comprehensive site for teachers and students offering online courses, an e-mail discussion forum （论坛）run by Alice and Bee, and an invaluable news stories section where recordings of features can be accessed together with a detailed explanation of key vocabulary and idioms. The Learning English section provides teachers with a large number of present-day “issue“ topic areas. As well as raising all the questions to get a more advanced class discussion going, there are online recordings of experts voicing their opinions which could provide excellent listening practice.Dr Kenji Kitao's keypal resourceA keypal is a computer pen pal and the Dr Kenji Kitao site offers numerous links for e-mail projects divided into those that are suitable for students and others designed for teachers wishing to develop writing partnerships with colleagues at other schools.Learn EnglishCreated by the British Council, and available in a wide range of languages, this site is an unmissable resource for language teachers involved with children of any age. Simple word games, poetry, songs, lyrics and stories are all available as resources to support a lesson or as standalone activities. This is not simply a resource site, however, but also gives advice on finding a suitable language course depending on your country of origin.21. What is the disadvantage of Askmytutor?A. Its activities can't be done online.B. Its design can't satisfy young audiences.C. Its professionals are far from committed.D. Its courses are quite beyond young audiences.22.

Atiq helped his former patients face the New Year with less debt, voiding （使无效）more than $650,000 of unpaid medical bills for those once under his care. Each patient received a card with a personal greeting from their doctor. The note thanked each patient fbr trusting Dr. Atiq with their care followed by the generous surprise. 6lf this gave them a little bit of assistance then I am grateful to have had the opportunity to do so J the physician said.Nearly 30 years ago, Dr. Atiq founded the Arkansas Cancer Clinic in the community of Pine Bluffto make cancer care available for the economically disadvantaged. Before its opening, Pine Bluff cancer patients traveled at least 50 miles for treatment. Dr. Atiq was clear that his patients, needs were always his top concernnot their ability to pay.Dr. Atiq knew all too well the huge financial pressure often faced by patients. Although he wished all of his patients could simply focus on recovery from disease, many were simply not in a position toeven if they had insurance. And, most of his patients had to work while receiving treatment. Some of his patients, including elderly grandmothers, were already working two jobs before getting sick.In the same spirit of generosity that Dr. Atiq opened his clinic, he is now closing its doors to begin a new chapter. Dr. Atiq is a full-time professor of Head and Neck Surgery at the Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute, part of the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. His patients safely transitioned to a hospital to continue their cancer care.Dr. Atiq feels his act of kindness was a small gesture in comparison to what his patients have given to him over the years. "The courage and resilience （适应力）that I have learned from my patients are invaluable J he says. "The issue is their health. I am hoping that they can be cured of cancer. Or, it is controlled well to where they are living productive, happy lives with their families, their friends, and their loved ones.”What did Dr. Atiq do for his former patients?A. He paid off all their debts.B. He forgave them their debts.C. He made invitation cards for them.D. He gave a New Year dinner for them.24. What is special about the Arkansas Cancer Clinic?A.

Challenges that Dr. Atiq met in the course of work.27. What can we learn about Dr. Atiq?A. He is pursuing a new career.B. He has retired from his post.C. He hopes to stay healthy to treat more patients.D. He wants to raise public awareness about cancer.CThe sunflower sea star has been listed as a critically endangered species following a groundbreaking population study led by Oregon State University （OSU） and The Nature Conservancy.“These giant sea stars used to be easy to find and were a hit with divers. Unfortunately, your chances of finding one now are next to nothing in most of the areas near the United States-this listing is one step to extinctionand I don't think they're coming back without help,“ said OSU's Sarah Gravem, a research associate in the College of Science and the lead author of the study.Populations of the sunflower sea star suffered dramatic crashes because of a marine （海洋的） wildlife epidemic （流行性的）event, which began in 2013. Scientists used more than 61,000 population surveys from 31 data sets to calculate a 90.6% decline in the sunflower sea stars and estimated that as many as 5.75 billion animals died from the disease, whose cause has not been determined. Moreover, the research showed no sign of population recovery in any region in the five to seven years since the event.Sunflower sea stars are a key catcher of purple sea urchins （海月旦）and the sea star decline has helped the increase in the urchin population in many regions. Too many urchins are linked to a decline in kelp forests （海藻林）already facing pressure from marine heat wave events, making the future uncertain for ecosystems that provide habitat for thousands of marine animals and help support coastal economies."Because most people aren't out in the ocean every day, we don't realize how much it's being changed and impacted by humans. We need to think about how to keep our ocean healthy. While reducing the release of carbon dioxide is the most pressing need, rebuilding key catcher populations, like the sunflower sea star, can be an important piece of the puzzle too J said study co-author Sara Hamilton, a Ph. D. candidate in the OSU College of Science.28. What can we infer about sunflower sea stars from Sarah Gravem's words?A. They attract many tourists to the United States.B. They cannot adapt to the new environment.C. They cannot recover on their own.D. They present a danger to divers.29. What led to the sharp decline in the number of sunflower sea stars?A. Human beings' overfishing.B. The arnval of a new species.C. The rising ocean temperature.D. The occurrence of a marine disease.30. What is the relationship between sunflower sea stars and the sea kelp forests?A. The sea kelp forests provide habitats for sunflower sea stars.B. Sunflower sea stars help preserve the sea kelp forests.C. Sunflower sea stars feed on the sea kelp forests.D. Their common enemies are sea urchins.31. What might Sara Hamilton agree with?A. More species should be introduced to the ocean.B. Scientists play the most important role in protecting the ocean.C. The influence of human activities on the ocean is not getting serious.D. More action should be taken to increase the number of sunflower sea stars.DConstant notifications （通知）on your phone. TV news specials in place of your favourite sports show. WhatsApp full of COVID-19 articles your out-of-touch aunt just “had to share”. Sound familiar? If our daily news intake was counted in calories, many of us would have put on even more weight in recent months.While audience numbers for network television news shows remain much higher than usual in many countries, ratings are, in some places, starting to decrease. Tn the UK, news shows have recorded their lowest audience figures since the country went into lockdown （居家隔离）.The Nieman Journalism Lab, part of Harvard University, recently reported that "news traffic to news sites, both in the US and around the world, is pretty much back to pre-coronavirus levels.There are also many people who are finding themselves consumed by the news cycle more than usual. Journalists, communications professionals, doctors, scientists and, most recently, disinfectant （消毒齐U） producers are among those having to stay on top of daily comments and data in a way they've never previously experienced. For many, this is happening while they are working from home and managing vague boundaries between their work and private lives.So how should we balance news fatigue （疲劳）and anxiety with the need to remain informed on the latest news during the crisis? John-Paul Davies, a London-based expert, argues that for most of us, checking the headlines once a day is a sensible goal. This could be reduced to once a week for those with high levels of anxiety. He says it is also important to select "a trusted news site“ or radio station with a focus on "facts rather than guesses”.For those whose work is connected to the coronavirus crisis, experts accept it may be much harder to reduce news consumption. But John-Paul Davies says it's still important to make an effort to “put boundaries around how much information you watch or read. Liz Martin, a therapist based in London, recommends regular digital check-ins with workmates doing similar roles. “It's really important to be a support to one another,“ she argues.32. What happened to people during COVID -19?A. They kept on putting on weight.B. They lost touch with their relatives.C. They were overloaded with news on COVID-19.D. They were forced to choose between TV news and sports shows.33. How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?A. By giving examples.B. By testing assumptions.C. By making predictions.D. By drawing comparisons.34. The author want to explain in Paragraph 3 that .A. making a smart and successful career move is very importantB. the boundaries between work and life vary from person to personC. the advantages of working from home outweigh its disadvantagesD. some people are strongly affected by the news cycle for professional reasons 35. What is John-Paul Davies' advice?A. Seeking help from others.B. Turning to reliable sources.C. Keeping checking the headlines.D. Putting information in order of importance.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分125分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多 余选项。Culture is a popular word in sport. Coaches often relate the cause of their success or failure to this word. 36The short answer is, while the cultures of some sports teams can create long-term success, others will only deliver success in the short term, if at all. Culture is a key factor in the success of any organized group. So what is a sports team's culture?Every team has a culture. 37Culture is a measure of the observable behaviors your team promotes and accepts. Basically, culture is best defined simply as “the way we do things around here" or “the way we behave a
