After doing some research, he found the best way to eliminate their carbon footprint was by planting giant sequoia trees（巨型红杉树）.Giant sequoias are ideal for capturing carbon dioxide because they continue to grow consistently for centuries, storing CO2 over time. General Sherman, the world's largest sequoia tree, has stored an estimated 1,500 tons of CO2 in its trunk over the last 2,200 years and could live another 800 years. The average human could generate close to 1,000 tons of CO2 over their lifetime, so planting one giant sequoia could effectively reduce the carbon footprint of more than one person.After realizing the power giant sequoias have to fight climate change, Emson devoted his life to planting thousands in the UK by creating the One Life One Tree project. Its final goal is to plant 100,000 giant sequoias in the UK by 2030, and according to The Mirror, as of March 2022, it has already planted 700. Trees are currently being planted near Abergavenny in Wales and the project is expanding to Devon, the Lake District and Scotland.While the common assumption is that these giant trees can only be grown in NorthernCalifornia, they actually do well in the UK at a time when the sequoia population is threatened back home.According to One Tree One Life, 95% of the old-growth sequoia population has been logged over the past two centuries and what remains is under threat from climate change. "A 10 year+ drought and temperature increase have greatly damaged the health of the trees. A secondary impact of the drought is making them increasingly susceptible（易受景乡响的）to insect attack and fire；' the site says.Considering the danger that climate change is causing giant sequoias in California, Emson's work also benefits these trees. "They're like climate refugees（难民）we help them with assisted migration J he told Euronews.4. What does the underlined word “eliminate“ in the first paragraph probably mean?A. Measure.B. Remove.C. Overlook.D. Spread.5. How does the text mainly show giant sequoias' ability to store CO2?A. By giving an example.B. By doing an experiment.C. By making comparisons.D. By referring to comments.6. Why did Henry Emson launch the One Life One Tree project?A. To protect the environment by planting trees.B To test the adaptability of giant sequoia trees.C. To save different kinds of endangered trees.D. To prove the value of giant sequoias to his kids.7. What can be learned about Henry Emson's work?A. It disturbs the whole ecosystem of California.B , It indirectly turns giant sequoias into refugees.C. It helps promote the survival of giant sequoias.D. It assists California in recovering from drought.A new and exciting innovation will enable people with hearing loss to see conversations in real time. Using augmented reality（AR）glasses and a smartphone, hearing-impaired （有听 力障碍的）people will soon be able to participate and engage in conversations.XRAI glasses were developed by Dan Scarfe after he spent a Christmas dinner with his family. Scarfe saw his 97-year-old hearing-impaired grandfather sitting alone in silence while the rest of the family members were animated in conversation. His light bulb moment camewhen he remembered his grandfather watching closed-caption TV and realized that AR glasses could be used for subtitles （字幕）.Scarfe got to work, partnering with Nreal, an AR glasses manufacturer. Six months later, the team unveiled XRAI glasses. The glasses are connected to a smartphone that receives the audio （音频）from a microphone, processes it, and then uses software technology to transform it into closed captions.The company is now testing the glasses in the UJK and hopes to complete their pilot by the end of this month. The UK was selected as a testing ground as over 13 million adults in Britain have hearing loss. However, when the product goes global, it may transform the lives of some 430 million people. This represents 5 percent of the world's population and includes 70 million people with total hearing loss.This is a game changer for the deaf and is applauded by hearing loss charity RNID and Deaf Kidz International. Mark Atkinson of the charity wore them, saying, “As a deaf person myself, I was blown away by this technology. When I tried on the glasses, I was astonished that real-time subtitles enabled me to engage and participate as never before.nFor Scarfe and his startup, this is only the beginning. After the testing, XRAI will work with users' feedback, hoping to make the product available to the public soon. He also imagines using smart glasses to translate languages, understand accents and voice tones.8. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A. How Scarfe helped his grandfather out.B. Scarfed grandfather hearing problem.C. Scarfed special care fbr his grandfather.D. How Scarfe got the idea for hisinvention.9. What does the underlined word "it" in paragraph 3 refer to?A. The audio.C. A microphone.B. A smartphone.D. Software technology.10. What can be inferred about XRAI glasses?A. They have passed strict testing.B , They have great market potential.C. They have been rejected in the UK.D. They are well accepted worldwide.11. Why does the author mention Mark Atkinson?A. To tell XRAI users9 high expectations.B. To speak highly of the new innovation.D. To show the availability of XRAIC , To doubt the possibility of Scarfed plans.glasses.For humans, the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic were a stressful time, marked by fear, isolation（隔离），canceled plans and uncertainty. But for birds that inhabit developed areas of the Pacific Northwest, the reduction in noise due to pandemic lock downs allowed them to use a wider range of habitats in cities.A new University of Washington study led by Olivia Sander foot reported that many birds were just as likely to be found in highly developed urban areas as they were in less-developed green spaces during the peak of the COVID-19 lock downs.“Our findings suggest that some birds may have been able to use more spaces in cities because our human footprint was a little lighter/9 said Sander foot. "For about half of the species we observed, neither land use nor canopy cover（林冠盖度）had an effect on their site use. That's very interesting, because we had expected that whether a habitat was mostly covered in concrete or vegetation could tell us something about what birds would be there.”In the spring of 2020, Sander foot and her colleagues invited more than 900 community scientists in the Pacific Northwest to participate in the study. The volunteers chose their own monitoring sitesmostly backyards and parks where they could safely follow public health orders-and recorded the birds they observed over a 10-minute period at least once a week.In order to compare the volunteers9 bird observations with human activity, Sander foot and her colleagues used data from Google's Community Mobility Reports, which track the relative amount of people moving around at various points during the pandemic. While most people spent the spring of 2020 isolated in their homes, many began venturing out again over the course of the study period.As people returned to public spaces and human activity increased, the study volunteers recorded an increase in sightings of several bird species in their monitoring sites.“The birds mostly were in highly developed urban areas at the height of the lock downs, because human activity wasn't as much of a disturbance, but then returned to those vegetated areas as human activity increased again/9 Sander foot said.12. What benefit could birds get during the pandemic lock downs?A. Gaining more human attention.B. Living in a lively environment.C. Expanding their living places.D. Returning to vegetated areas.13. What can we learn from Sander foot's words in paragraph 3?A. Birds actually dislike living in big cities. B. It is very difficult to identify bird species.C. The findings aren't what he expected. D. Human footprint hardly affects bird species.14. What did Sander foot and her colleagues do for their study?A. They got community scientists involved in it.B. They tracked human activity for a whole year.C. They chose monitoring sites for the volunteers.D. They only observed birds in less-developed areas.15. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. The Influence of the Pandemic on HumansB. The Impact of Human Activity on Green SpacesC How Birds Adapt Themselves to UncertaintyD. Birds' Habitat Change During the Pandemic二、七选五"Regret is a possible element of any decision that we make J says psychologist Robert Leahy, “But the likelihood that you will regret your decisions will depend on how you think about making your decisions and how you cope with living with the result.”If you're someone who lets past regrets faster（溃烂）in your mind, Leahy recommends that you fight against irrationaK非理性的）thinking and think more realistically about where you are in life. 16 Here are some of his tips.Remember that you don't know things would have turned out better. If you imagine your life would have been better if only., keep in mind that your assumption is not based on real evidence. 17 Instead, turn toward the future and remember it can change based on the choices you make now.18 Your negativity bias can keep you preoccupied with whafs wrong rather than whafs right. So, it's a good idea to practise gratitude for the good in your life-even for the small and simple things. This helps to balance out the negative feelings that come with regret.Don't forget that sometimes things don't turn out the way you wanted them to. 19 You cannot know anything in advance, so you need to accept that sometimes you will regret your choices. But that doesn't mean you should criticize yourself endlessly.It's better to learn from your mistakes than to punish yourself.Accept tradeoffs（折中）and compromises. Not everything has to turn out just the way you wanted it to. You won't make progress if you insist otherwise and make yourself miserable（痛 苦的）in the process.20A. Be grateful for your past mistakes.B Don't fbcus on where you might have been.C. We will share some effective methods with you.D. Focus on the positive aspects of your current life.E. So, aim to be a satisficer rather than a maximizer.F. Life can hand you lemons, but that's not necessarily your fault.G. He suggests using scientific approaches to question your assumptions.三、完形填空This morning, I stopped by a local grocery store to pick up a few items. The small store was almost 21 and only one cashier（收车艮员）was working. I waited while the guy in front of me was putting all the 22 groceries back into his shopping cart（贝勾物车）.He was about to 23 when he asked if he could push the cart to his 24a quartermile away, unload it and then 25 it.The cashier was new there and was not 26 I said that Fd be happy to give him a 27 back home.Then, we loaded his 28 into my car and talked on the 29 trip to his living place. He had just moved to the town recently, but like all of us, he was feeling the 30 of the high cost of living. I nodded with a sigh and helped him unload his groceries before 31 back home.On my way home, I thought to myself, "The cost of living keeps going up, but at least the cost of loving doesn't 32 ."That is the funny thing about loving. It almost costs us 33 You might think if you spent your love 34 your family, your neighbors, your friends, and even the 35 you meet in the street, sooner or later your love would 36 .You might think sooner or later your 37 like your wallet would be empty. 38 love doesn't work like that. When we 39 our love, the cost doesn't rise. 40 .we find that we have even more love.21.
