When it was her turn to pay, the cashier greeted her by name and asked her how she was doing. The woman looked down, shook her head and said, “Not so good. My husband just lost his job and my son is up to his old tricks again. The truth is, I don’t know how I’m going to get through the holidays.” Then she gave the cashier food stamps.‎ ‎ My heart ached. I wanted to help but didn’t know how. Should I offer to pay for her groceries or ask for her husband’s resume? I did nothing—yet. And the woman left the store. As I walked into the parking lot, I spotted the woman returning her shopping cart, and I remembered something in my purse that could help her in a different but hopefully profound（意义深远的）way. It wasn’t a handful of cash or a lead on a job for her husband, but maybe—just maybe—it would make her life better.‎ ‎ “Excuse me,” I said, my voice trembling a bit. “I couldn’t help overhearing what you said to the cashier. It sounds like you’re going through a really hard time right now. I’m so sorry. I’d like to give you something.” And I handed her a business-sized card.‎ ‎ A few weeks earlier, a colleague gave me a similar card as encouragement for a project I was working on. When I read the card, I felt a warm glow spread inside of me. Deeply touched, I came home and ordered my own box of cards and started sharing them too.‎ ‎ When the woman read the card’s only two words, she began to cry. And through her tears,‎ ‎ she said, “You have no idea how much this means to me.”‎ ‎ I was a little shocked by her reply. Having never done anything like this before, I hadn’t anticipated the reaction I might receive. All I could think to respond was, “Would it be OK to give you a hug?” After the hug, I walked back to my car and began to cry too. The words on the card: You Matter.‎ ‎24. What’s one of the woman’s problems?‎ ‎ A. Her son often plays tricks on others. B. Her family can’t spend their holidays.‎ ‎ C. Her family’s total income will decrease. D. She can’t afford the groceries.‎ ‎25. How did the author help the woman?‎ ‎ A. By giving her some money. B. By returning her shopping cart.‎ ‎ C. By helping her husband find a job. D. By inspiring her with confidence.‎ ‎26. What made the author want to have her own cards?‎ ‎ A. The cashier’s greeting. B. The woman’s trouble.‎ ‎ C. The card she received. D. Her colleague’s advice.‎ ‎27. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “anticipated” in the last paragraph?‎ ‎ A. Prevented. B. Expected. C. Accepted. D. Noticed.‎ C ‎ Dieting to slim down always sounds great in theory. But with so many different types of diets, it’s tough to know where to start. Certain set of rules about food and exercise can last for two days, two months, or the rest of your life. Some recommend limiting your calories, while others suggest reducing your carbs（碳水化合物）. We don’t blame you if it all starts to make your head spin.‎ ‎ To help narrow the options down, some health experts at U.S. News and World Report evaluated 40 of the most popular diets, and then ranked them according to factors like nutrition, effectiveness, safety, and ease. Overall, Weight Watchers was named the best diet for weight loss.‎ ‎ The final results might not be what you think of. But if you think about it, it’s easy to see why Weight Watchers is such a star for weight loss. “Not only does it provide a healthy, effective program to shed pounds, but it also provides support for dieters through group meetings. That will keep you motivated in the long run,” the experts said.‎ ‎ Meanwhile, the popular keto diet tied for last place, along with the Dukan diet. Whole30,‎ ‎ another low-carb diet, was also at the bottom of the list. Why did these mainstream meal plans get a thumbs down from the experts? “The keto diet is just not sustainable over the long term,” nutritionist Lisa Drayer said. “It doesn’t teach you how to acquire healthy eating habits. It’s good for a quick fix, but most people I know can hardly give up pasta and bread, let alone beans and fruit.”‎ ‎ “Still, that doesn’t mean you should nix（否决）your New Year’s resolution altogether,” Drayer said. “Just make sure your diet fits with your lifestyle and goals—no matter which one you choose. Before you get started, read up on the surprising things doctors wish you knew about losing weight.”‎ ‎28. What can we learn from the first paragraph?‎ A. It’s hard to choose a proper diet. B. Some diets can result in a headache.‎ C. Dieting to slim down is easy in practice. D. Different diets can be used altogether.‎ ‎29. What’s the reason for Weight Watchers’ standing out?‎ ‎ A. It supports dieters both physically and mentally.‎ ‎ B. The method it provides is cheaper and easier.‎ ‎ C. It searched for and learned from most popular diets.‎ ‎ D. It focuses much attention on its users’ safety.‎ ‎30. What problem do people usually meet in losing weight?‎ ‎ A. Some diets are harmful to health. B. Many diets are hard to carry out.‎ ‎ C. Body weight sometimes declines sharply.‎ ‎ D. It’s difficult to make a decision to lose weight.‎ ‎31. What does Drayer advise dieters to do?‎ ‎ A. Make higher goals. B. Keep suitable diets.‎ ‎ C. Abandon present diets. D. Learn from other dieters.‎ D ‎ In a test, scientists at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory（PNNL）in southeastern Washington mixed low-activity radioactive waste—that is, waste with very small concentrations of radioactivity—with liquid glass, then let it harden into a durable（持久的）, solid material.‎ ‎ This process immobilized（使固 化）the radioactive and chemical materials within the glass, the PNNL said.‎ ‎ “The radioactive elements are chemically bound as part of the glass material,” Will Eaton, who led the test, told Live Science. “And the glass material is a durable waste form that separates the radioactivity from the environment for a very long time.”‎ ‎ For the experiment, carried out in April, scientists took about 3 gallons （11 liters） of low-activity waste from a tank at the Hanford Site, a nuclear production complex located next to the PNNL in southeastern Washington. This small-scale test is a key step forward in the goal of dealing with millions of gallons of dangerous waste that was made from more than 40 years of plutonium（钚）production at Hanford, whose reactors produced plutonium for America’s defense program, the PNNL said.‎ ‎ To trap the dangerous liquid waste in glass, scientists mixed it with glass-forming materials, such as silica, and then slowly pumped the mixture into a melter that reached 2,100 degrees Fahrenheit（1,148 degrees Celsius）. At the end of the test, the scientists had about 20 pounds（9 kilograms）of glass.‎ ‎ If the glass breaks, as it did in the test, then you have many pieces of glass. The waste components are chemically bound and are a part of the glass material. The dissolution（分解）of the glass over time（which happens very slowly）depends on surface area, so cracking has a very small effect on leaking into the environment.‎ Later this year, researchers plan a second vitrification test on about 2 gallons（7.5 liters）of waste from a different tank at Hanford. However, this waste will test different filtration- and ion-exchange methods, the PNNL said.‎ ‎ Once this test is completed, the low-activity waste glass containers will be stored in the Integrated Disposal Facility at the Hanford Site.‎ ‎32. What’s the significance of the test?‎ ‎ A. It makes reactors produce less radioactive waste.‎ ‎ B. It provides an alternative material for the defense program.‎ ‎ C. It helps increase the production of plutonium from reactors.‎ ‎ D. It contributes to a new method of treating radioactive waste.‎ ‎33. What can we know about the test?‎ ‎ A. The mixture was melted at a high temperature.‎ ‎ B. Liquid waste was poured into a glass container.‎ ‎ C. Solid waste powder was mixed with liquid glass.‎ ‎ D. A whole piece of clear glass was gained at the end.‎ ‎34. What does the fifth paragraph mainly talk about?‎ ‎ A. Instructions for breaking up the glass.‎ ‎ B. Possible result of the dissolution of the glass.‎ ‎ C. Technical requirements for keeping the glass.‎ ‎ D. Ways to prevent waste entering the environment.‎ ‎35. What would be the best title for the text?‎ ‎ A. Special Kind of Glass Being Tested ‎ B. Radioactive Waste Trapped Inside Glass ‎ C. Durable Material Made of Glass and Waste ‎ D. New Way Found to Recycle Radioactive Waste 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Five Ways to Make Studying More Fun ‎ 1. Get in the zone. Pick an area of the house that is comfortable and functional. Use a stand-up desk and computer station instead of the kitchen table. Set up a space in your bedroom or home office that is just for studying. 36 Decorate it, paint a wall, or get some new furniture.‎ ‎ 2. Study with a buddy. Getting together with a friend or a group of classmates can help you learn new study techniques while still getting a few laughs in. 37 Pick one person and each of you choose a side to argue.

Go for a quick walk, watch a short video, or eat a snack. 38 Before you take a break, write ‎ down what you learned during your study time and add to this list each time you take a break.‎ ‎ 4. 39 By activating both the left and right brain at the same time, it maximizes learning and improves memory. It’s no secret that music helps with focus, concentration, and creativity.‎ ‎ 5. Leave the house. 40 If the weather is nice, head to a park or the beach. Study at your favorite coffee shop or bookstore. If you’re a mover and a shaker, you might want to try exercising to improve memory and thinking skills.
