It has been coming for years and no one knows why.”Glaub and Parker settled in to their new home,and for the first two years only a few letters from kids or parents askednSantanfor gifts they could not otherwise afford.Then in the months leading to Christmas 2010,their mailbox was filled with letters to Santa every day. They responded to as many as they could,writing notes,even buying gifts. Glaub,of course,is not Santa.They could do only so much.But one night,when he and Parker threwa 1960s-themed Christmas party,a solution appeared.Guests noticed the hundreds of letters they'd yet to act upon and asked about them. Glaub told them the story and his guests were intrigued.“A lot of people were like/Tll take a letter. Ill satisfy it."'And so was born Miracle on 22nd Street.started a website,and a Facebook page.

Now in 2023,there is a new workplace trend on the horizon,calledtquiet hiring”.Quiet hiring is a strategy used to fill the critical gaps in a company without hiring new employees. One company has a limited amount of talent and needs to make a call about where it's going to have the best impact. This year it may need to add five more data scientists to its team to meet the strategic goals. As a solution,it maymove five employees from another department only for a short time,like data analysts in the human resources and marketing department,into the five open data scientist roles.In this case,the boss is saying,nWefre going to intentionally deprioritize support for HR and marketing for the next six months so that we can increase the productivity of our data science team,and we are saying this sound and clearly. Everyone knows this."The important distinction with quiet hiring is that a company is openly communicating with employees about its priorities and moving employees to areas that serve those priorities,instead of just loading employees with more work or simply hiring more people.While being assigned to a new role may seem scary,quiet hiring should be beneficial to employees. If you were asked to take on additional responsibilities,it would indicate your value. Meantime you might say,nIf it's not possible to increase my payment,can we make it so that I can work from home five days a week, reducing my commute （通勤）costs? Or, could I work flexible hours,making it easier for me to live the rest of my liffe?''An individual conversation may be ineffective.If you're part of a department or team being asked to switch roles,employ that power and approach human resources as a group.8 .What does the strategy of quiet hiring refer to?A.Adding more positions.C.Employing new talent secretly.B.Training new employees.D.Shifting existing staff to new posts.9 .What is the feature of a company's handling quiet hiring?A.Innovations are highly valued.B.Employees are burdened with overwork.C.Roles of departments are changed regularly.D.Personnel changes are announced beforehand.10 . What suggestion does the author offer to employees?A. Negotiate on extra jobs.C. Shoulder more duties on work.11 .Which is a suitable title for the text?A.Hiring more or less?C.Quiet hiring:A workplace debateB. Take on new roles as a team.D. Balance between work and life.B.Quiet quitting or quiet hiring?D.Quiet hiring: An upcoming tendencyDIn the endless sky,the unaided human eye should be able to perceive several thousand stars on a clear,dark night.Unfortunately,growing light pollution has disabled people from the nightly view.New citizen-science-based research throws alarming light on the problem of'sky glow"the diffuse illumination （漫射照明）of the night sky that is a form of light pollution.The data came from crowd-sourced observations collected from around the world as part of Globe at Night,a program developed by astronomer Connie Walker.Light pollution has harmful effects on the practice of astronomy but also on human health and wildlife,since it disturbs the cycle from sunlight to starlight that biological systems have evolved alongside. Furthermore, the loss of visible stars is a great loss of human cultural heritage. Until relatively recently,humans throughout history had an impressive view of the starry night sky, and the effect of this nightly spectacle （壮观）is evident in ancient cultures.Globe at Night has been gathering data on star visibility since 2006.Anyone can submit observations through the Globe at Night web application. Participants record which one best matches what they can see in the sky without any telescopes or other instruments.Researchers find that the loss of visible stars indicates an increase in sky brightness of 9.6% per year while roughly 2% is measured by satellites.Existing satellites are not well suitedto measuring sky glow as it appears to humans,because they can not detect wavelengths shorter than 500 nanometers （纳米）.White LEDs, with shorter wavelengths under 500 nanometers, now are increasingly commonly used in outdoor lighting.But human eyes are more sensitive to these shorter wavelengths at nighttime.Space-based instruments do not measure light from windows, either.But these sources are significant contributors to sky glow as seen from the ground."The increase in sky glow over the past decade underlines the importance of redoubling our efforts and developing new strategies to protect dark skies," said Walker.nThe Globe at Night data set is necessary in our ongoing evaluation of changes in sky glow,and we encourage whoever can to get involved to help protect the starry night sky.”12 .What is a purpose of Globe at Night?A.To develop new light sources.B.To collect data on star visibility.C.To help astronomers explore space.D.To popularize science among citizens.13 .What does the loss of visible stars lead to?A.Poorer human health.B.Fewer wildlife species.C.More delicate biological systems.D.Less nightly culture elements of the sky.14 .What does the author stress in paragraph 5?A.Satellites play a vital role.B.White LEDs are widely used.C. Crowd-sourced data are invaluable.D.Shorter wavelengths are hard to detect.15 .What can be inferred from Walker's words?A.Their consistent efforts pay off.B.The data set needs to be updated.C.More participants are expected to join in.D.The sky glow has been over-emphasized.第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。There are few natural sounds more uplifting to my spirit than the bright and cheering calls and songs of black-capped chickadees （山雀）.One of my morning routines is to step outside the house and listen for the voices of black-caps.There is something comforting to me in black-caps* presence.16 Sometimes they are the only birds Illhear on my local wood land walks and for me the forest would be a lonelier place without them.After I'd moved into a house on Anchorage's Hillside,! placed a makeshift feeder on my home's back.17 For each, the routine was similar： dashed in, looked around, pecked（啄）at the tray,looked aroundagain,and dashed out. Nervous little creatures,full of bright energy, they soon had me laughing at their funny way.By the time they moved on,! sensed an all-too-rare up welling of fascination and joy.Within days,a whole new world opened up as woodland neighbors I'd never known,or even imaginedjoined the black-caps at my feeders: red-breasted nuthatches,common red-polls .What was remarkable was that all of those species were common residents of the Anchorage area.18My newfound interest in birds grew quickly,surprising even me.19 I visited bookstores in search ofbirding guidebooks.Excitedly exchanged bird descriptions with a stranger.Purchased 50-pound bags of sunflower seeds. All of this seemed very strange to a middle-aged guy who'd never been attracted by birds.Even more,I had previously judged bird watchers to be rather dull sorts.20 They've reminded me how my world can expand and become enriched when I make the effort to pay attention. What else awaits me in our world,I wonder,that I haven't yet discovered or noticed?A.Nature always amazed me in its own way.B.Yet in prior days and years,! had no idea.C.Black-caps are a sign of good environment.D.Within a day,black-caps accepted my invitation to dine.E.Black-caps have had a special place at the top of my affections.F.What started as mere curiosity flowered into a consuming passion.G.And much more often than not,they are heard before they're seen.第二部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Anuar Abdullah is a 61 -year-old diving instructor in Malaysia.When he isn't 21he's back out in the water 22，studying, and restoring coral reefs （珊瑚礁）.Now,as climate change becomes an 23 threat,governments,corporations,and others are coming to himfor 24.Abdullah has no degree in marine biology or 25 training-just an amount of experience.
