26、We all want to go somewhere — somewhere that has been on our bucket list(人生愿望清单) for ages. So, we tend to squeeze as many sights into our trip as possible, We often imagine the scenes like four cities in seven days, “must-sees” in Tokyo, famous landmarks in Europe and so on. 【1】

However, it’s probably not quantity but quality that counts. Traveler, a reality show in the Republic of Korea, can perhaps give us some ideas of what travel is like. In Traveler, travelers don’t have a task.【2】Instead, it focuses on “describing the real experience of traveling by showing the processes of finding a place to stay or hailing a taxi”, according to The Korea Times.

【3】It isn’t about getting or not getting somewhere as quickly as possible, but about simply being excited as you’re getting there or not getting there at all.

【4】You may ignore the guidebook’s recommendation and ask local people where they prefer to eat and hang out. And you’ll be surprised by what a place has offered when you’re not busy rushing around and checking things off on your bucket list.

Travel is just like life. There is little fun in it if everything is predictable.【5】But as travel blog CheeseWeb puts it, as long as you keep an open mind, you’ll see that “everywhere is ‘somewhere’ ”.

A．It’s true that we all want to go “somewhere”.

B．But do you know what you are experiencing?

C．Also, there isn’t a competition for them to win.

D．Why not stop being rushed off your feet and slow down?

E．This is actually the concept of what’s called “slow travel”.

F．You may try to wander off the main road and take a back street instead.

G．It’s as if the faster we’re checking things off on our list, the more we are experiencing.

27、There are many reasons for visiting Rwanda. From breathtaking scenery to various cultures, it is full of hope and wonder. Here are some must-enjoy experiences for travelers.

Made-to-Order Fashion: Bighly colored cloth is shown at many stal (货摊) in the Kimironko Market in Kigali, the capital of Rwanda. Choose one piece that speaks to you and a talented tailor (裁缝) can make you the clothes of your choosing in about an hour. You will find hills, bats, bird wings and rivers popular on the cloth- they are a celebration of the county’s natural landscape and wildlife.

Incredible Wildlife Encounters: From mountain gorillas in the north to chimpanzees in the south, Rwanda is home to some of Africa’s most fascinating animals. Local guides help travelers explore rainforests and mountain areas. The first purpose-built gorilla research and education center was completed here in 2021.

Meet the Artists: Beautiful murals (壁画) appear from the sides of buildings as travelers make their way through the towns of Rwanda, leaving little doubt that gifted artists call the country home. Local pottery, sculptures and paintings are only the beginning of the choices art lovers will be excited about. Don’t miss the local people who perform at community gatherings and professional dancers and musicians who tell the history of the country to travelers through dance and music.

Create Your Own Adventure: Even the most experienced adventure traveler will find challenges in the hills here. Horseback riding at Fazenda Sengha high above Kigali? Sure. A walk along a 70-metre high, 160-metre long Canopy Walkway in the wind above a natural rainforest? Just say when. Rwanda seems built for adventure and guests who bring their curiosity won’t leave disappointed.

28、As a little girl, one of my favourite family traditions was held on the first day of May. Along with my sister, my mother and I would make simple rower baskets by making paper into cones (圆锥形). Then, we filled the bottom of the cone with small candies before putting some flowers into it

With our May Day baskets in hand, my sister and I became anonymous gift-givers. After hanging a basket on the front door of a neighbor or friend, we rang the doorbell and ran away. The goal was to remain secret givers.

Historically, the first day of May, often referred to as “May Day”, has been recognised as a celebration of spring, of life and growth. Parades (游行) and dances are ways that the day has been — and continues to be — celebrated in many parts of the world. Although formal May Day celebrations may be less common now, it is always worth celebrating. Here are some simple and lovely ways to celebrate May Day in our homes and with those we love:

Making a May Day basket is always a great choice. Although the May Day basket we made as children was simple, the making of the basket was a joy in itself. Consider making or buying some flowers for friends. Fill the basket with a few sweets and write a note thanking your friend or neighbour for their kindness, their presence, and their love.

On May Day, we also take flowers to a local hospital or nursing home. Flowers are always welcome in places that are too often full of sadness. Stopping to have a conversation with a patient and thanking a nurse would be an additional gift — to the receiver and to us!

Besides, we always give friends small gifts to celebrate May Day. A small book or magazine with a note, an art print celebrating spring — the choices are endless. When your friends are far away, an unexpected gift can reawaken friendship across the miles.

【1】The underlined part “anonymous gift-givers” refers to people who ________.

A．are serious about gift-giving

B．don't know the value of gifts

C．are careful about every small detail

D．give gifts but don't want their names to be known

【2】What do we know about May Day from the passage?

A．It is celebrated all over the world.

B．The date of its celebration has changed.

C．It traditionally celebrates the arrival of spring.

D．There is an increase in formal May Day celebrations.

【3】In the author's eyes, May Day is a great chance to ________.

A．express thanks

B．visit faraway friends

C．read a book or magazine

D．stay with family members

【4】What is the passage mainly about?

A．The history of May Day.

B．Great family traditions.

C．Celebrating May Day.

D．Flowers for festivals.

29、Ford is turning McDonald's coffee waste into headlights

Ford is recently including coffee chaff — coffee bean skin that comes off during the roasting process — into the plastic headlights housing (大灯外壳) used in some cars. It has asked McDonald's, which doesn't roast its own coffee, to connect it with suppliers.

In recent years, as consumers become more concerned about plastic pollution and carbon emissions, companies have made sweeping commitments to reduce their impacts on the environment. They've also been developing new, sustainable materials to build consumer products.

Traditionally, Ford uses plastic and talc (滑石粉) to make its headlights housing. The coffee version is more sustainable because it's lighter and doesn't use the talc which, as a mineral, isn't renewable. Coffee chaff, on the other hand, is widely available, and much of it goes to waste. Eventually, Ford hopes to use the material for more parts.

Ford decided to work with coffee chaff a few years ago. But it's been experimenting with organic materials for over a decade. The auto company has been using soy-based foam (泡沫) in its cushions since 2011. It also uses waste from wheat, coconut, tomato and other plants in its cars in order to help meet some of its sustainability goals, which include using more renewable materials. Once the Ford team figured out how coffee chaff could be used to build car parts, it reached out to McDonald's because of the restaurant chain's scale and its sustainability goals. Like Ford, McDonald's also wants to bring renewable and recycled materials into its products. The partnership between Ford and McDonald's is an example of how brands with different projects can work together.

“We've conventionally thought of cooperation as within the food industry,” said Lan Olson, senior director of Global Sustainability at McDonald's. “The Ford partnership can help McDonald's see what kind of larger impacts are possible, when it works with a company in another field. This is just scratching the surface of trying to understand what's possible,” Olson said.

【1】Why is Ford applying coffee chaff to headlights housing?

A．To work with McDonald's.

B．To do experiments in the lab.

C．To save resources and money.

D．To reduce environmental pollution.

【2】What makes Ford choose McDonald's as its partner?

A．They have the same sustainability goals.

B．Ford wants to cooperate with one in the food industry.

C．Different brands with different projects can work together.

D．Coffee of McDonald's is so popular and has great potential.

【3】What can we learn from Olson's words?

A．The cooperation is only on the surface.

B．Ford has a large influence on McDonald's.

C．Cooperation between the two brands just begins.

D．Only cooperation within the food industry is welcomed.

【4】In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?

A．A business report.

B．A science fiction story.

C．A food magazine.

D．A project handbook.

32、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

As a young boy, I sometimes traveled the country roads with my dad. He was a rural mail carrier, and on Saturdays he would ask me to go with him. Driving through the countryside was always an adventure: There were animals to see, people to visit, and chocolate cookies if you knew where to stop, and Dad did.

In the spring, Dad delivered boxes full of baby chickens, and when I was a boy it was such fun to stick your fingers through one of the holes of the boxes and let the baby birds peck on your fingers.

On Dad’s final day of work, it took him well into the evening to complete his rounds because at least one member from each family was waiting at their mailboxes to thank him for his friendship and his years of service. “Two hundred and nineteen mailboxes on my route,” he used to say, “and a story at every one.” A young girl wrote letters but had no stamps, so she left a few buttons on the envelope in the mailbox; Dad paid for the stamps. On cold days Dad might find one of his customers waiting for him with a cup of hot chocolate.

A dozen years ago, when I traveled back to my hometown on the sad occasion of Dad’s death, the mailboxes along the way reminded me of some of his stories. I thought I knew them all, but that wasn’t the case.

As I drove home, I noticed two lamp poles, one on each side of the street. When my dad was around, those poles supported wooden boxes about four feet off the ground. One box was painted green, and the other was red, and each had a long narrow hole at the top with white lettering: SANTA CLAUS, NORTH POLE. For years children had dropped letters to Santa through those holes.

While Mom and I were sitting at the kitchen table I heard footsteps. There, at the door, stood Frank Townsend, Dad’s postmaster and great friend for many years. So we all sat down at the table and began to tell stories.

注意：

1.续写词数应为150左右;

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Frank asked my mother, “What are we going to do about the letters this Christmas?”
