When I stepped out of Heathrow Airport, the British accents were music to my ears! The roads were so empty and traffic was so organized, with open spaces everywhere and so few people on the streets—what a difference from where 1 came—Mumbai. The difference was even more obvious after I had spent 21 years of my life living in that place. The streets were unfamiliar, and the faces were all foreign.
I boarded my bus for my university town. I felt like I had been in a fairytale book—the small houses, the quiet streets and the well-dressed people among other things. A small and beautiful three-storeyed building is quite a rarity back home and here, I have yet to see a building taller than that! Back home in India, the kind of rent I pay here could have afforded me a luxurious 2 bedroom-hall-kitchen apartment in a good location. But my accommodation here is the size of my bathroom back home! It’s just a fact... reality can be rude at times!
I really cherish the first day of my new university. I’ve met so many students from countries that I didn’t even know. But living alone in a new place, away from the protection of my family and friends, is a different experience altogether—a wonderful experience of further education!
It's been almost two months now. The novelty(新奇)is gradually disappearing, and the dust is settling down. It’s all just daily now but I feel fully settled. I really like this place. It feels like home!
24. What does the underlined part “that place” in paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Heathrow Airport. B. Britain.
C. A university of India. D. Mumbai.
25. What is the author’s first impression of Britain?
A. Dirty and noisy. B. Different but poor.
C. Hopeful and inspiring. D. Strange but beautiful.
26. What does the author probably do？
A. An international student. B. A tourist from India.
C. A British college teacher. D. An unknown writer.
27. What can we know from the last paragraph?
A. The author is less interested in everything because of dust.
B.The author feels like going home after nearly two months.
C. The author has been used to the new environment.
D. The author still feels curious about everything around.
C
There have been some suggestions lately calling for the end of traffic in some cities by the year 2034．In order to reduce(减少) all this traffic, governments are planning to take away one of its biggest contributors(促成物)—cars．But is this a good idea? Our first reaction may be NONONO．They’re taking away our cars and how can we travel in the city daily? But when you consider the problem a little longer, you may find the plans quite sound and realistic．Here’s why：
The one thing that annoys(使烦恼) most big cities is the nonstop heavy traffic．You have to see how terrible it is to drive into a very busy city centre—London, Miami, Tokyo? I’d say it’s very bad．City layouts(规划) simply aren’t built to manage that many moving parts．If we allow only buses, taxis and bikes to use the road, traffic problems in large cities will be immediately solved．
If you ever go to a large city centre, you often realize the difficulty some people have with sidewalktosidewalk travel．If you live in New York City, there are so many people crossing in such a small area, that it’s often difficult to know what exactly is
even going on．But if cities begin to do away with cars, we’d see an increase in outoftown travellers more willing to walk about city centres in safety．
The one thing that troubles any driver is being stuck in a traffic jam in the centre of town．You move forward at a very low speed, feeling annoyed, mad, and helpless．But why go through this hassle? If we do away with cars throughout major cities, it will give drivers the chance to actually enjoy their journeys on (more) open roads．It’s a strange thought, yes, but many drivers will tell you driving in city centres is like driving in hell(地狱)．
28．What is the author’s attitude to the government plans in Paragraph 1?
A．Doubtful． B．Uninterested． C．Unfavourable． D．Supportive．
29．What can we infer form Paragraph 2?
A．Many large cities are widening their roads．
B．The author is an experienced driver in a big city．
C．There is something wrong with city layouts．
D．Cars are the main cause of traffic problems．
30．What does the author say about New York City?
A．It is heavily polluted． B It has fewer cars than before
C．Its streets are too busy． D Its tourist numbers are increasing．
31．What does the underlined word “hassle” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A．A sudden change． B．An annoying situation．
C.A serious accident． D．A dangerous experience．
D
Bananas are one of the healthiest fruits you can eat, being loaded with protein, fiber, vitamins A, B6, and C, etc. Bananas are delicious on their own as well. But we’re not here today to talk about the banana fruit, but rather its peek. Generally thrown away as waste, banana peels actually bring about different uses.
Starting off with a topical benefit, banana peels are great for relieving the painful itch(瘙痒)of bug bites. Science hasn’t figured out why it works, but you can’t argue with results. People who have tried it report that it is really useful.
There are lots of expensive ways to whiten teeth, and a lot of them use bleaching agents(漂白剂) which weaken teeth and can cause sensitivity. But guess what? Banana peels can whiten teeth naturally and gently due to their potassium(钾)content.
Banana peels contain a lot of antioxidants that are great for your skin. To reduce the look of lines and wrinkles, simply rub a banana peel directly on the affected areas and wash your face 30 minutes later.
It is fiber once again that can lower your cholesterol(胆固醇)levels, which is critical to maintaining a healthy heart. Banana peels contain more soluble fiber than the fruit itself, so throwing away the peel wastes a valuable opportunity to bump your intake. And finally, you can actually rub a banana peel on shoes, leather, and silver articles to clean them up and make them shine.
Whether you eat them or use them, banana peels don’t save very well. Once removed from the fruit, they blacken pretty quickly. It's best to prepare and consume banana peels right away. However, one thing is for sure—you will stop throwing these valuable wrappers in the trash after you discover all the incredible things they can do.
32. Why can banana peels be used to whiten teeth?
A. They will cause sensitivity to our teeth.
B.They can make our teeth white while doing no harm
C. They are much cheaper than bleaching agents.
D. The effect is better than any other things.
33. What do we know about banana peels’ function?
A. They can stop the bites of some insects.
B. They can act as a facial mask and make us look younger.
C.They can clean leather shoes and gold jewellery.
D. They can keep our heart healthy by increasing our cholesterol levels.
34. What should we do with bananas according to the last paragraph?
A. Consume them right away.
B. Throw their peels in the trash.
C. Make use of their peels soon after being removed.
D.Try to save their peels in good condition.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Why not cat banana peels?
B. How to make good use of bananas?
C. Banana peels do good to our mental health.
D. It is worthwhile using banana peels.

people are staying at home, while some were infected. Although it’s difficult for many of us to perform our normal duties, we should hold the belief that there are always more approaches that can be found to solve problems. 36
Read books

Everyone can pick up a brush and write something, even if it may look very ugly at first. But the point of such practice is not to write beautiful characters.

Now, there are many online audio lessons that can help you appreciate classical music. 39 His humorous and informative lessons have attracted many music lovers.

Cook good dishes
40 When you temporarily lose your outdoor options, make sure you eat well.There are many recipes in Chinese cuisine to try, and you can follow video blogger Li Ziqi to get more ideas. She posts videos from an idyllic life in the country, and will undoubtedly serve as excellent inspiration.

M: Grandma Moses is among the most well-known 20th-century painters of the United States, yet she had hardly started painting before she was in her late seventies. ⑰She was born on a farm in New York, one of five boys and five girls. At 12, she left home and worked as a housekeeper until she married Thomas Moses at 27. ⑱They farmed most of their lives, first in Virginia and then in New York. ⑲Grandma Moses began to paint using oils in her old age because she wanted to keep busy and pass the time. Her pictures were first sold at the local drugstore and at a market, and were soon noticed by a businessman who bought everything she painted. Three of those pictures were exhibited in the Museum of Modern Art, ⑳and in 1940, she had her first exhibition in New York. Between the 1930s and her death, she produced some 1,600 pictures.
