But they werent. A surprise was waiting for them. When their huge truck rolled down the street into the community they found scores of residents whod gotten up early to line the street with signs and balloons, all to simply say we love you. Jennifer Elegant wanted to show her familys appreciation so she organized the socially-distancing surprise thank you celebration to honor the essential workers whom she called “extraordinary”. Even the Miami Beach mayor, Dan Gelber, showed up to salute them because Saul Scruggs and Keon Richardson do so much more than pick up trash.“They bring an incredible, positive energy to the entire neighborhood,” Jennifer told GNN. “Simply put, they spread joy.” They always have smiles on their faces and never miss an opportunity to say hello and brighten someones day. They also go out of their way to help others and expect nothing in return.One day, Saul spent 45 minutes helping a neighbor dig through her trash to help her look for her lost wedding ring. He also waited over an hour with another neighbor who was having heart issues and needed an ambulance. “They continue to remain optimistic even during this stressful COVID-19 pandemic, sacrificing their own safety in order to keep our city clean and beautiful,” she said. “Every day we are surrounded by heroes who bring us inspiration and joy but too often we are unable to recognize these special individuals for the influence they exercise on others. I wanted Saul and Keon to know that we are thankful from the bottom of our hearts.” 21. Why were many residents lining the community street one early morning? A. They were waiting for the mayor to see them. B. They were waiting for the trash truck to collect their trash. C. They were going to give two essential workers a “thank-you” celebration D. They were going to give their hero Jennifer Elegant an “extraordinary” surprise22. Which of the following is the closest in meaning with the underlined word in Paragraph 2? A. have interviews with B. show respect for C. make friends with D. present medals to23. What qualities of Saul and Keon were best described according to the passage? A. Helpful and optimistic. B. Responsible and selfish. C. Brave and impatient. D. Generous and confident.BToday experts guess that over 50% of people worldwide live in cities. By the year 2050, they expect 70% are going to be living in cities. They also say that more of the worlds cities will be megacities and mega-regions!A megacity, as the name suggests, is a huge city. A basic definition might be any city with over 10 million people. However, it is harder to count the actual number of people living in a city than one might think. For one thing, it is not always clear who to count. Many megacities do not have clear borders for where the city ends. Suburbs (郊区) and regions around the city may or may not be included in the citys total population.Even with the difficulty of saying where a city ends and who to count, it is clear that certain cities around the world are megacities. Sao Paulo, the city with the most people in South America, is one. New York, the most famous city in North America, is another. Then there is Tokyo, a megacity with over 30 million people. This makes it the largest megacity in the world.A mega-region, on the other hand, develops when megacities become so big we can consider them to be connected. One report by the United Nations said the largest mega-region today is in China. The megacities included in this region are Hong Kong, Shenzhen, and Guangzhou. However, a mega-region does not have to be limited to one country. In West Africa, a mega-region connects four countries: Nigeria, Benin, Togo, and Ghana.An important fact about mega-regions is how much economic (经济) power they have. Research by the United Nations found that 66% of economic activity worldwide happened within the worlds 40 largest mega-regions. The research also showed that 85% of new ideas in technology and science came from these 40 mega-regions. Less than 20 of the worlds population, however, lives in these mega-regions.24. Why is it difficult to figure out the population living in megacities? A. The suburbs worldwide grow too quickly.B. The world population is still on the increase. C. The cities dont have to be limited in one country. D. Its no easy work to classify the borders of the cities.25. What can we conclude about the worlds 40 biggest mega-regions? A. Its time to divide mega-regions into appropriate parts. B. By 2050 they will house 70% of the worlds population. C. They are where more than half economic activity happens.ww&w.zzstep.#com D. The more people live in them, the more creative ideas can be found.26. Which of the following can be the best title for this passage? A. Advantages of Living in Cities B. Growing Cities and Regions来源:中国#教育出版网% C. Problems with Bigger Cities D. Economic Power of CitiesCWhat is citizen science? Citizen science generally involves groups of people or amateur scientists helping gather data for use in nature or wildlife studies to support conservation. So whether you give your time online, or sign up for a practical project with a wildlife or nature organization close to home, your generosity and kindness will not only help nature, but do you the world of good as well. When we give we feel good. We experience what scientists describe as the warm glow effect or helpers high, now known to be caused by a release of endorphins (而多酚) in the brain. Research into this effect discovered that giving to charities (慈善) activates the areas of the brain associated with pleasure, social connection and trust. Put simply, altruism (利他行为) is a proven path to good mental health.When our altruism is related to nature, and in particular when we give our time and effort, the rewards for our wellbeing, or our health and happiness, are far-reaching. Whether were working to maintain freshwater ponds at the weekend, or contributing to a citizen science survey by monitoring wildlife in our back garden, our care and kindness has the power to lift our mood and strengthen our self-respect, especially when we learn new skills and earn the added satisfaction of accomplishing new tasks. The hands-on aspect of taking part in nature and wildlife conservation projects has also been shown to reduce stress, anxiety and low mood. In 2020 a three-year study by the UK Wildlife Trusts found that 95 percent of participants who reported low mental wellbeing at the start of volunteering, recorded an improvement in their mental health after six weeks, which increased further after 12 weeks.Alan Murray, head of volunteering at the RSPB, also agrees: “We believe our volunteers keep coming back because of natures power to restore, uplift and inspire and were confident that the more time people spend connecting with wildlife the more they feel moved to protect it.”27.

In one part of the world, for example, people used sharks teeth for money. In some places, brightly colored feathers and rare seashells were money. People in one area even used the hair from elephants tails for money.www.zzstep%.#comNo one knows for sure when people started using metal coins for money. The oldest coins are over 2, 500 years old, so we know that people used coins a very long time ago. _32 They stamped the shape of a person or animal on each coin to indicate its value.In the 13th century, people in China used iron coins for their currency. These coins werent worth very much, and people had to use many of them to buy things. Because it was inconvenient to carry so many of these coins, the government started making paper receipts. 33 This was the first example of paper money.Today, most countries use a mixture of coins and paper bills for their currency. In America, the paper bills are all the same size and color. For example, the $1 bill is the same size and color as the $100 bill. In many other countries, the bills have different sizes and colors. The smaller bills are worth less money. 34 In 2002, twelve European countries started using a completely new currency the euro. Many Europeans miss their old currencies, but now its easier to move money from one country to another.来源:*中国教育出版#&网_35 Feathers and stones were the lightest and heaviest money ever used on the Pacific islands while the smallest money ever used was in Greece, with the size of an apple seed.A.
