Fall is one of the absolute best times to go camping. Not only is the summer heat quickly
fading from memory, but the landscapes are painted with vibrant colors as the leaves make their
annual change from green to gold, crimson, and orange. If you’re planning a camping trip this
autumn, we have some suggestions on where you should go, no matter which part of the country
you live in.
Acadia National Park, Maine
Fall comes early to Acadia National Park, with the leaves beginning to change color in early
September. Still, the park is one of the absolute best places to set up camp in the autumn, offering
stunning views of the wonderful shades of nature that highlight the trees at that time of year.
But, if you want to experience autumn in Maine at its finest, book a spot in the Blackwoods
Campground.
Fall Creek Falls State Park, Tennessee
The centerpiece attraction at Tennessee’s Fall Creek Falls State Park is its massive
namesake waterfall, which plummets off a rock face 256 feet in the air. But, the park has amazing
options for campers too, including more than 220 campsites spread out across five different areas
in various parts of the 26,000 acre landscape. Summer lingers later in the Volunteer State, but
autumn is no less spectacular once it arrives.
Carson National Forest, New Mexico
Home to New Mexico’s highest point—the 13,161-foot Mt. Wheeler—Carson National
Forest offers visitors plenty of surprises. For example, in contrast to most of the rest of the state,
the region isn’t a desert, which often catches first-time visitors off guard. The forest features a
16-mile long hiking trail and is home to elk, bear, cougar, big horn sheep, and other large
creatures.
Gunnison National Forest, Colorado
With plenty of wild backcountry to explore, thousands of trails to wander, and some of the
best fall colors found anywhere on the planet, Gunnison National Forest is a paradise for campers.
The region has 56 designated campsite, allowing visitors to choose where to set up camp based
on their favorite outdoor settings.
11. How long is the waterfall in the suggestions
A. 220 feet. B. 256 feet. C. 13161 feet. D.26000 feet.
12. Which is the main reason why fall is a good camping time
A. The scenery is colorful.
B. The summer is very hot.
C. The leaves are painted.
D. The landscapes are vertical.
13. Where should visitors go if they are interested in wildlife
A. Acadia National Park, Maine.
B. Gunnison National Forest, Colorado.
C. Carson National Forest, New Mexico.
D. Fall Creek Falls State Park, Tennessee.
B
Kurth Reis of San Francisco, California, has been through many hard times in his life. In 2018,
Reis had a serious motorcycle accident and spent time in a hospital. The accident affected him deeply,
body and spirit. He had several medical operations. Reis said he felt like he was “reborn” each time he
woke after an operation. Following 88 days in the hospital, Reis was released and felt ready to change
his ways.
Lately, he says he just wants to cheer people up by making bubbles. You can watch him perform
his bubble art for hours at a time around the city’s streets and in its parks. Sometimes he puts out a
glass container called a tip jar. People who watch his show can drop money into it if they want to.
2
{#{QQABIYgUggggAAJAAQhCQwnwCkMQkAEACAoOREAEsAAAARFABAA=}#}
If the weather is good for bubbles, Reis makes a special mixture that can make bubbles the size
of a small car. Humidity, or the amount of water in the air, is good for bubbles. So, he does not
perform on very dry days. To make his large bubble, he puts a small rope hanging from two long
sticks into the bubble mixture. As he removes it, he opens his arms wide and the bubbles begin to
form. Once enough air is inside the bubble, he moves his arms back together to set the bubble free.
Some people feel it looks like a bubble “ballet”.
While Reis may seem like a bubble-making expert, he only got started in April 2020. Reis can
support himself with donations from the audiences. But money is not what stirs him to make bubbles.
He feels his art is useful in more important ways. Not long ago, a woman told Reis after a
performance that his bubbles had lifted her spirit when her dad died.
Reis can see smiles rise from under the face covers worn by those watching him perform.
Children cheer and clap their hands. Reis said such reactions make him feel like an essential worker
whose job is to spread joy.
“I’m just trying to put a smile on somebody’s face by doing some bubbles,” said Reis. Such a
small act will be remembered by others and warm others.
14. What can we know about Kurth Reis from Paragraph 1
A. He had to repay his operation fees.
B. He intended to do something different.
C. He suffered a minor motorcycle accident.
D. He gave up his career as a motorcyclist.
15. What may people do when they watch Reis’ performances
A. Put some money into a tip jar near him.
B. Give him applause when he sets a bubble free.
C. Grasp a small rope hanging from two long sticks.
D. Add a special mixture to help him make large bubbles.
16. What does the underlined word “stirs” mean in Paragraph 4
A. Enables. B. Determines. C. Requires. D. Encourages.
17. What can you learn from the passage
A. Believe you can and you are halfway there.
B. Every dog has its day.
C. Everything comes to him who waits.
D. Small actions can have a big impact.
C
Lin Wanqi, a 26-year-old resident of Shanghai, was among the earliest to try Luckin
Coffee’s new Moutai-flavored latte. Eager to sample this “young people’s first sip of Moutai”,
she was curious about how her beloved coffee tastes with Chinese liquor in it. “The aroma of the
alcohol is very strong and is well blended with the milk,” Lin shared.
The coffee drink, packaged with an iconic Moutai-themed label and containing less than 0.5
percent (alcohol by volume) of 53 degrees Moutai, is priced at 38 yuan, although consumers can
get it for 19 yuan using coupons. In recent years, Moutai has embarked on various creative
campaigns to appeal to younger customers, introducing products like Moutai ice cream, scented
sachets, and canvas bags. “This creative partnership lets Moutai make its brand younger,” Li
Honghui, a marketing director for drinks. Li also pointed out that such creative collaborations (合
作) can bring benefits to both brands. "Through partnerships, brands can share resources, expand
the market, and bring more diversified and innovative products to consumers," Li said.
However, flawed partnerships may lead to negative consequences. Take the collaboration
between Chinese coffee chain Manner and French luxury brand Louis Vuitton(LV), for example.
3
{#{QQABIYgUggggAAJAAQhCQwnwCkMQkAEACAoOREAEsAAAARFABAA=}#}
Consumers could get a free LV canvas bag by buying at least two books in the coffee shop. The
two books would cost at least 580 yuan. The campaign was sharply criticized for the high barrier
of entry to receive the gift and many people doubted whether it was worth the price. “It’s
important to maintain the high quality of the products in these partnerships rather than merely
generate hype(炒作),”Li said.
18. What did Lin Wanqi think of the new Moutai-flavored latte
A. Bitter. B. Smooth. C. Creamy. D. Aromatic.
19. Why is Moutai in association with Luckin Coffee
A. To get coupons. B. To attract other consumers.
C. To share resources D. To maintain the high quality.
20. What does Li Honghui say about the partnership between Kweichow Moutai and Luckin
Coffee
A. It is a win-win. B. It is creative-yet-risky.
C. It still needs more promotion. D. It sets a good example for the market.
21. Which is the shortcoming of Manner Coffee and Louis Vuitton partnerships
A. The gifts were of low quality.
B. They come from different countries.
C. The promotional method was improper.
D. Their employees sold the gifts privately.
D
It was reported that a worker’s strike happened because industry bosses are planning to cancel
paper tickets and close almost 1,000 station ticket offices in England. The government says nothing
has been decided in reply to this strike. But some officials advise to save money in this way.
Regardless of the outcome of the strike, the direction of digital change is clear. With time going
by, station ticket offices are likely to become a sepia-tinted memory. For us, we who have been used to
organising travel via a smartphone feel little sadness. But for people without online skills – who may
be older, poorer and weaker – another small social barrier will be built.
From doctor appointments to payment apps, more and more key services are now provided online.
Local government, lack of money, has to do business in this way. As this change takes place, some
people hold that it can be unfair to some users. In the case of health and social care, those who need
help most are unable to navigate(导航 ) a digital route to the place. A recent report estimated that
around 6% of households have no internet access. As digital technology becomes the gatekeeper to
everyday life, some groups may face the problem of exclusion and isolation.
The debate over ticket offices offers an opportunity to reflect on the increasing role of technology
in our society. Clearly, it is important to help marginalised groups gain easy online access. Some
people will never become comfortable using smartphones or tablets. Some offline options must be
maintained for important services. This will cost more. But that is the price of being fair to those who
find themselves on the wrong side of the digital divide.
22. What is paragraph 1 of the text mainly about
A. The desire of the government. B. The disappearance of paper tickets
C. The causes of an employee’s strike. D. The problem of station ticket offices.
23. What does the underlined word “sepia-tinted” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Latest. B. Different. C. Profound. D. Dated.
24. What did the recent report focus on
A. The digital divide risks B. The majority households.
C. The exclusion process. D. The individual estimates.
4
{#{QQABIYgUggggAAJAAQhCQwnwCkMQkAEACAoOREAEsAAAARFABAA=}#}
25. What is the author’s attitude toward canceling paper tickets
A. Indifferent. B. Negative. C. Doubtful. D. Approving.
第二节(共 5小题;每小题 2.5分,满分 12.5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。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Focus, or concentration, is a skill that can be taught. 26 Start with easy exercises like
staring at a picture on the wall for a few minutes without moving or talking to anyone. Once you learn
how to block out your surroundings, your focus will improve.
27 This is when you picture yourself in a desired situation, and then you work around
your picture. Actors do this a lot to block out laughter, noise, or other distractions. An example of this
would be to imagine yourself in a potentially stressful situation, like a singer in a concert. Try to play
out the scene in your mind what you would do if different scenarios were to happen.
If this sounds a little strange to you, you could try another strategy. Why not make lists. Make a
list for the things you need to accomplish for the morning, another for the afternoon, and finally,
another list for the evening. 28
Another way to improve your focus is to take breaks. If you are working in an office, you are
allowed coffee breaks. Use this time wisely. Don’t spend it with your co-workers beside the coffee
machine talking about problems in the office. Your breaks should be as quiet as possible. 29
Go and do anything that will give your brain a rest.
The reason why we lose focus so easily is because we have too much on our minds. 30
A good balance between a too relaxed brain and an overly active brain are both undesirable situations
to be in.
A. It will also not stress you out.
B. Read a book, take a walk, or visit a park.
C. Other mind exercises you can do is internalizing.
D. So there are some exercises you can do to improve your focus.
E. Of course, it could also be because you are bored with nothing to do.
F. Study your lists carefully and see where you can move things around.
G. Find your capacity to work, and try not to go away to far from it on a daily basis.

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。
My cousin Mariana, who lives on the other side of the country, came to stay with my family in
San Francisco for a week. She and I were just three years old the last time we’d met, so I was afraid
we might not get along. Luckily, we hit it off right from the start. I thought It’s perfect timing,
because my friend Shawn was having a pool party on Saturday, so I invited her to go with me.
"Wow, that’s a really nice invitation." said Mariana. "But I’m sorry. I, uh, didn’t bring my swimsuit."
I led her to my room, dumped a bunch of swimsuits onto my bed, and said, "Problem solved!
Just take your pick." Mariana stared at the pile without saying a word. After an awkward silence, I
asked her to have a try. but she told me she would be comfortable only in swimsuits with very
colorful patterns. "No way!" I said, pulling my favorite suit out of my swim bag. I explained that I
didn’t show her that one because I thought it might be too wild. "If you like it, you are welcome to
wear it!" I said. She suddenly paused."But it looks too small."I laughed and insisted she give it a try
it since we had the same size. When she finally agreed to try on the swimsuit, it seemed as if it were
made for her. And I couldn’t wait to take her to meet all my friends. "Yeah!" Mariana’s voice
sounded a bit disappointed. "Let’s grab a snack." she mentioned that she didn’t know why she got so
hungry all of a sudden. After an apple, a cookie,and a handful of pistachio nuts, she finally smiled
again.
The rest of the week was a blast. We went skateboarding and made up hilarious new basketball
moves in the park. Even with my little sister and brother sticking to Mariana like glue, she said she
was having a great time.

1.续写词数应为 150左右;
