In 2020, when the pandemic (疫情)broke out, her father's small business was forced to close temporarily and the family returned to her ancestral village to wait out the pandemic.However, it greatly shocked her when she found that attending school was uncommon in Deora, where almost half of the villagers couldn't read. Unable to afford textbooks, many families often withdrew their children from schools. They didn't wish to educate their children, many of whom had to work in (he fields with parents though some had the desire to read.Sadiya, the college girl with a strong sense of social responsibility, has been trying to seize opportunities to open doors fbr others.

One day last July, Sadiya sat down with her family elders and proposed the idea of setting up a library. Many shook their heads in disagreementthis wasn't how a young girl should spend her time.After many discussions, Sadiya finally convinced them and gained access to her relative's guesthouse, mending it with $ 67 that she'd won in public-speaking awards. She took the help of her uncle, Akbar, and cousin, Nawaz, and got to work. Walls were repainted, the bamboo roof was repaired and lights and bookshelves were fixed, and the room was filled with chairs and a long table. Vivid charts stuck on the wallsfrom anatomy (解剖)to transportation, lightened the space. Looking at the newly-decorated "library", Sadiya couldn't hold back her excitement while imagining the children reading books here by light.All was ready except books.

It wasn't anything too important: I was just a carrier for the Scarborough Mirror, delivering newspapers every Wednesday and Friday. But it brought in a good amount of pocket money for a student like me.During (he first week of September, I planned to stop my job, as I wanted to focus on my academics with school to start. I found a family on my street who were willing to take over and so I took their names and numbers and turned them in to my district representative along with my resignation.That was last week. This Tuesday came and I was supposed to get the newspapers to deliver on Wednesday. They didn't come. I just assumed there probably wasn't much to deliver so they would just give me everything tomorrow. It'd happened before so I wasn't too worried. There was a seed of doubt, however, in my mind, that maybe the handover of this job was misunderstood. But I pushed that thought aside and just went on as usual.Wednesday morning came and the papers weren't lying on my driveway as they'd done for the past 9 months. My mom reminded me to call my district representative, who told me (he route had indeed been turned over to the other family. She couldn't have understood my message when 1 said I would work until September. So much fbr 2 more weeks of work!In a way, I'm glad because I don't have to worry about delivering newspapers in the burning sun. On the olher hand, I wasn't ready to give up my job so early, so the unexpected loss was a (iny blow to me.Despite these negative feelings, I'm looking forward to the next summer when I'm getting promoted and my wage will rise from what I had with (he job, which gave me good experience about hard work and chances to meet my neighbors.(1) Why did the author plan to quit the job?A.

Over time, domestication shaped their behavior, and today pet dogs are especially expert at understanding cues (暗示)from humans. For example, when a person points at a bowl, a pet dog will usually approach it. All kinds of complex pointing gestures have been tried with pet dogs, and they seem to do well.Wolves are a different story, however. When the same experiments are done with wolves, they seem to be quite poor at it. So there's this big open question of how dogs became dogs.Bhadra, an Indian behavioral biologist, is interested in whether dogs require training to understand cues like pointing or if the behavior is inborn. Most studies have focused on pct dogs in developed countries but Bhadra thinks it's an error to neglect how stray dogs respond to human cues.In India, there's a huge population of stray dogs that live on the streets for generations. The researchers felt that the free-ranging dogs were a very nice system, which could give them inputs about what dogs could have been like before being made parts of human families.For the study, the researchers approached stray dogs on (he Indian streets. One experimenter presented the dogs with a piece of raw chicken in a plastic bowl. About half of the time, the dogs ran away, scared. But the friendlier dogs that stuck around were tested for (heir ability to respond to pointing. Once a dog proved interested, the first experimenter put chicken in one of two bowls and covered both bowls. A second experimenter, who had no knowledge of which bowl contained the meat and thus couldn't give subconscious cue information, pointed at one of the bowls while the dog watched. About 80 percent actually followed (he point and went to (he bowl that the second experimenter pointed toward.Bhadra thinks this demonstration provides evidence that training is not required for dogs to understand complex pointing cues. Perhaps further studies with stray dogs can help reveal more about what makes dogs the best friends of human beings.(1) What does the example in paragraph 1 show about pet dogs?A. They can figure out some human gestures.B. They're particularly attached to their owners.C. They may make sense of specific human speech.D. They're easily distinguished from wolves in intelligence.(2) What does the underlined word "neglect" in paragraph 3 mean?A. Ignore.B. Estimate.C. Guarantee.D. Claim.(3) How did (he second experimenter give dogs directions?A. By mistake.B. In a logical manner.C. At random.D. Through trial and error.(4) In which section of a newspaper can we read the text?A. Environment.B. Technology.C. Discovery.D. Chemistry.4、【来源】2021年山东烟台高三下学期高考模拟(二)第1275题10分(每题2.5分)With over 4.1 billion people, or around 55 percent of the world's population, living in urban areas, cities and towns worldwide are getting increasingly jammed. In addition to spending hours stuck in traffic, residents are also exposed to high air pollution levels caused by transportation emissions (排放).Now, Saudi Arabia hopes to overturn urban living with "The Line"a futuristic city designed around nature, without cars, roads and crowded places!The totally different city, announced on January 10. 2021, is the brainchild of Saudi Crown Prince (王储)Mohammed bin Salman(MBS). Located in Ncoin, a 10, 000-squarc-milc high-tech planned development on the Red Sea coast. The Line will be the base of MBS's Saudi Vision 2030. The strategic plan aims to diversify Saudi Arabia's oil - dependent economy into other fields, like tourism, and create exciting job opportunities for its citizens.The 105-mile-long city, expected to cost between $ 100 billion and $ 200 billion, will be built along a straight line and comprise several self-sustaining communities. To ensure all services are within a short, five-minute walk, each community will feature a three-layer infrastructure (基础设施).There will be no cars or roads on (he (op "pedestrian layer", so residents can freely walk and bike in the surrounding green spaces. The second "service layer", will include all essential daily services, such as schools, medical clinics, leisure facilities, and grocery stores. The third "spine layer" will house ultra-high- speed transportation and autonomous vehicles transporting residents across communities in less than 20 minutes. The entire city will be powered with renewable clean energy sources such as solar and wind, and possibly even hydrogen.If all goes according to the plan, construction of this groundbreaking, complex infrastructure project will start before the end of 2021. In addition co providing up to a million residents with a clean and stress- free living environment, The Line is expected to create 380, 000 new jobs, promote economic diversification, and contribute a shocking $ 48 billion to Saudi Arabia's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by 2030. More importantly, MBS believes it will provide governments worldwide a blueprint for how people and planet can co-exist in harmony.(1) Where can you purchase a bike if l
