21、   A survey (调查) in the United Kingdom asked people about life after lockdown (封城). The market research and data analytics (分析学) company You Gov asked 4,343 people about life after the lockdown ends. The company said they were surprised by the people's answers. Only nine percent of Britons want life to return to "normal" (正常状态) after the coronavirus (冠状病毒) outbreak is over. This means 91 percent want life to be different to how it was before the pandemic (大流行病) started. Over half of people (54%) said they hoped to change the way they live their lives. Lead researcher Professor Tom MacMillan said: "This data shows there is a real want for change, and for the nation to learn from this crisis (危机)."

Most of the people in the survey said they noticed big changes because of the lockdown. Just over half (51%) have noticed cleaner air outdoors, and 27 percent have seen more wildlife in the past month. This may encourage people to use cars less when the lockdown ends. Maybe more people will work from home. Many people (42%) said they value food more, and 38 percent said they are now cooking by themselves and not buying ready-made meals. Another change could be a stronger sense of community. Over 40 percent of people said they now talk to people who live near them. Professor (教授) MacMillan said, "People are trying new things and noticing differences at home, in their work and in communities."

【1】The company You Gov were ________ when they got the results of the survey.

A.happy B.sad C.surprised D.worried

【2】In the survey, ________ percent of people want life to return to normal after the pandemic is over.

A.9 B.18 C.80 D.81

【3】51% of people in the survey notice ________ was cleaner after lockdown.

A.water B.air C.the park D.the city

【4】What changes may take place after the pandemic ends according to the survey?

①People use cars less. ②People talk to their neighbours more.

③More people work from home. ④More people cook by themselves at home.

A.①②③ B.①③④ C.②③④ D.①②③④

22、When I was a kid in Minnesota, watermelon was expensive. One of my father’s friends, Bernie, was a rich businessman, who owned a large store in St. Paul.

Every summer, when the first watermelons arrived, Bernie would call. Dad and I would go to Bernie’s place. We’ d sit on the edge of the dock（码头）, feet dangling（摇晃）, and got ready for a big meal.

Bernie would take his knife, cut our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us. Then we’d bury our faces in watermelon, eating only the heart—the reddest, juiciest, firmest, sweetest, most seed-free part—and throw away the rest.

Bernie was my father’s idea of a rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that it was not Bernie’s wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked. Bernie knew how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon.

What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. If you don’t take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and enjoy life’s small pleasure, your work is probably hurting your life.

For many years, I forgot that lesson I’d learned as a kid on the loading dock. I was too busy making all the money I could.

Well, I’ve relearned it. I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day. That’s the heart of the watermelon. I have learned again to throw the rest away.

23、Have you felt annoyed when a cell phone rings during the class? Something must be done to stop this. Now in New York City, USA, a rule is carried out in schools. Students can’t even bring cell phones to school. Is it a good thing or not?

Anxious parents say that cell phones are an important tool in holding New York City’s families together.

“I worry about it,” said Elizabeth Lorris Ritter, a mother of a middle school kid. “It’s necessary in our everyday life. We have a washing machine, we have running water, and we have cell phones.”

Many American parents think cell phones connect them to their children on buses, getting out from subways, walking through unknown places.

“I have her call me when she gets out of school.” said Lindsay Walt, a schoolgirl’s mother.“No one in New York is going to let their child go to school without a cell phone.”

What about the cell phone owners, the students? Most of the students said cell phones were essential and the cell phone was like an extra (额外的) hand or foot for them.

“I feel so empty.” said May Chom, “There is also no way to listen to music on the way to school without my phone. It will be a really, really boring trip.”

24、   How do you feel when you teacher asks you to work on a group project with other student? Do you like to work together with others or work alone?

The Programme for International Student Assessment, or PISA, carried out a survey of student's ability to work together in groups. They found that students who do well on tests by themselves are also likely to be better at working with other people. This finding was true for many countries. Students in Japan, South Korea, Finland and Canada, where test scores are high, also did well in working together to solve problems.

But this was not the case for every country. Chinese students, who have high scores as well, displayed just average collaborative （合作的）skills. "One reason might be that Chinese parents and teachers focus too much on grades," said Zhao Zhongxin, former vice president of the Chinese Family Education Association. "Students have a lot of exam pressure and they see schools as places for competition." "However, collaborative skills are very important for preparing students for today's society." he added. "Luckily, more Chinese parents and teachers are realizing the importance of this and are thinking of ways to help students improve this skill."

Another interesting finding from the PISA survey was that girls can be better than boys at working together. They said girls show more positive attitudes （态度）to wards relationships, which means they are more willing to listen to other' opinions.

PISA also found that the classroom environment can influence how well students collaborate. In classes where there are a lot of activities that require communication such as class debates, students might have better attitudes towards collaborating.

【1】The PISA did the survey to find out the students' ability to____________.

A.work with other people B.get high scores on tests

C.solve difficult problems D.make plans for projects

【2】What can we know from the findings of the survey?

A.Boys are better at working with others than girls.

B.Students who do well on tests are worse at working with others.

C.Collaborative skills are less important than scores for students' futures.

D.The classroom environment can influence students' ability to work together.

【3】What do Chinese teachers and parents think of working together now?

A.They like it a lot.

B.They can't stand it.

C.They think it's important.

D.They think it's unnecessary

【4】What can be done to improve students' ability to work together according to the passage?

A.Giving students high scores on every test.

B.Helping students to get used to exam pressure.

C.Making girls work with girls rather than boys.

D.Arranging more communicative activities in class.
