He shared a story about his work fbr kindness and joy. In his sharing, I discovered his family and other families had no food since March 23 because of lockdown（禁闭）.For one day I was grief-stricken for them. I mean, how could I, in North Carolina, possibly do anything to help feed a man and 50 people on the other side of the world? After a sleepless night I awoke with clarity to give money to these families. It was not a lot of money, but all that I had and I was determined to find a way to get the funds to Kenya from the US. Luckily, I succeeded in the end. My friend has been able to make the money go far buying corn, oil, fruit, and vegetables to feed 20 adults and 30 children. And now they have food.Each day presents a new problem. Many more people in other countries in Africa have reached out to me asking for help. It is heartbreaking. I cannot help everyone with money but I am determined to help everyone I can with telling their stories through our column Global Stor）'tellers fbr Kindness on our website. I asked my friend for a list of the children in his family. So now I sit with a list of 30 names, ages, and school years, wondering what on earth we can do for these children. Each night I sleep with a question and hope my dreams will give me guidance during my awake time.Each day is filled with problems and difficulties I could never have imagined, and also thoughts, actions, and ideas that are blossoming to extend love and mercy between many humans.24. What caused the families from Kenya to suffer starvation?A. The large population.B. Lack of enough fund.C. The lockdown in Kenya.D. The poor production of crops.25. What can we know about the author's help for those families in Kenya?A. He raised a large amount of money.B. He bought the necessities fbr them.C. He helped them through an organization.D.

He is a man skilled in setting up websites.CBreakfast is not only the most important meal of the day, it is also the most neglected. Common reasons fbr not eating breakfast include lack of time, not feeling hungry, traditional dislike for breakfast, and dieting.Breakfast simply means “break the fast”. Your body spends at least 6 to 12 hours each night in a fasting state. In the morning your body needs energy for the day's work ahead.A good breakfast should provide up to 1/3 of your total calories needed fbr the day. On average（平均）we eat 400 less calories fbr breakfast than fbr dinner. If breakfast doesn't attract you in the morning, try to eat a little.If you aren't hungry in the morning, start with something small like juice or toast or have a nutritious mid- morning snack later when you are hungry.So, you say you're on a diet. Some people fear eating breakfast will make them hungrier during the day and they will eat more. It is true that eating breakfast is likely to make you eat more. That's because your body is working all day long.Not eating breakfast can also cause you to overeat, since a fall in blood sugar often makes you feel very hungry later. To make matters worse, since your body is in a slowed state it will not be able to bum those extra calories very quickly. If you feed your body healthy snacks and meals through the day, you are less likely to become hungry and fill yourself as soon as you begin to eat. Since breakfast is the first and most important meal of the day choosing the right fuel is important. The best breakfast foods arc fruits, juice, lean meat, and grain products such as bread, rice, noodles28. Which of the following statements is NOT the reason fbr not having breakfast?A. Their time is limited.B. They want to lose weight.C. They don't feel hungry.D. They want to have a rest.29. What's the meaning of the underlined word "fhst" in Paragraph 2?A. Certain kind of food.B. Movement.C. Going without food.D. Quickness.30. I f you don't want to have breakfast in the morning, the author suggests youA. have some snacks when hungryC. see a doctor to have an examinationB. have a good dinnerD. go to a restaurant to enjoy a good meal31. From the passage, we can know the author believes.A. it's OK not to have breakfast 2.B. it's necessary to have a right breakfast.C. you can decided whether to have breakfast.D. it's important to go on a diet at breakfast.DVitamin B could help lessen （he effects of the most dangerous type of air pollution, according to a new study published recently. In the first study of its kind, a team of international researchers looked at the damage caused by one of the pollutants that has the most severe impact on health: PM2.5.Particulate matter, or PM, is a type of air pollutant consisting of small particles of different sizes. PM2.5 has a diameter of fewer than 2.5 micrometers, about 30 times smaller than a human hair. These particles arc so small that they can go into our respiratory system （呼吸系统），resulting in lung and systemic inflammation （炎症） and stress.The team found that something as simple as a daily vitamin B supplement could potentially reduce the impact of the tiny particles on the human body, although they stressed that the research was in its early stages and the sample size was small.For this study, 10 volunteers were initially exposed to clean air and given a placebo （安慰齐U） 10 check their responses. The group then took another placebo for four weeks before being exposed to heavily polluted air from downtown Toronto, where an estimated 1, （）00 cars pass every hour. The bad air was delivered to the volunteers through an "oxygen type'' face mask. The experiment was then repeated, with each volunteer taking a vitamin B supplement daily made up of 2.5 mg of folic acid, 50 mg of vitamin B6, and 1 mg of vitamin B12. B6 can be found in liver, chicken and nuts, and B12 in fish, meat, eggs, milk and some cereals.The researchers found that four weeks of vitamin B supplements reduced the damage of PM2.5 exposure by 28%76%. The results highlight how prevention at an individual level could be used to fight the harmful effects ofPM2.5.32. Why is PM2.5 harmful to our health?A. It pollutes and poisons the air.B. It is too much to be got rid of.C. It carries viruses and diseases.D. It is easily breathed in and damages our body.33. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?A. The process of the research was not scientific.B. This kind of research has been done many times.C. Further studies are needed to confirm their findings.D. Vitamin B is hard to obtain in people's daily life. 34 What is the text mainly about?A. International researchers have a new finding.B. Vitamin B could reduce the damage of PM2.5.C. Particulate matter does great harm to our health.D. Emission control and regulation are badly needed.35. The new study was probably published.A. in a science journalB. on a government websiteC. in a fashion magazineD. in a medical textbook第二节（共5小题:每小题2.5分,满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂 黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to lower costs and improve the living quality?There are numerous products posted on social media, and you might believe an electric toothbrush, Luna facial cleaning massager, a flight ticket to Phuket and so on will bring you a better life. But for many graduates or those who have worked for only one or two years, your income cannot keep pace with expense. 36 Here's how:Keep running or doing yogaIt seems to be a challenge to afford a fitness center costing over 10,000 yuan in annual fees or for a personal trainer. But you can buy a pair of sneakers or a yoga mac instead. Running in a park regularly or doing yoga at home using free online resources is definitely a type of quality life. 37.Go to museums or librariesChasing young good-looking stars, watching their films and buying expensive tickets for their concerts arc popular with many young people. 38 You seem to fail to lake into account a variety of exhibitions and resources updated frequently in major cities. Why not have a try? What you need to do is to choose themes that you are interested in, make an online appointment in advance and then enjoy your weekend.39For some young people, the easy and instant access and （he discount codes of online shopping make it an addictive draw. Sometimes what you buy online is not what you really need and the demands arc created by the producers. For example, many buy new clothing and they don't wear.4（） Money is not the only thing that can drive your quality of living, but your optimistic attitude towards life and self-disciplined way of life are.A. Stop over-spending onlineB. Limit your shopping spendingC. So, how can we save some money and improve quality of life?D. Making money and saving money arc not the final goal of life.E.
