Elito Circa is a Filipino artist who rose to fame for using his own blood to create canvas (油画布) paintings, which has attracted both praise and criticism over the years.
Born in a poor family that couldn’t afford to buy proper art supplies, Elito Circa experimented with a variety of unusual mediums as a child, including tomatoes, but it was when he accidentally scraped (刮破) his hand that he discovered the art medium that would mark his artistic career—his own blood. He quickly realized that the blood was not only harder to erase from the canvas, but it also made his artworks his own in a way that he had never imagined before.
Every time he scraped his body, young Elito used the blood as paint, but as he grew older he realized that his “paint” needed to be supplied stably, so he started visiting a clinic in Manila to have it drawn periodically. Nowadays, he stops by the clinic about once every three months. He then stores his blood in a freezer in his studio.
Although Elito has been criticized for his use of blood as paint in the past few years, the Filipino artist has always made it clear that he wants to change people’s view of blood through his art. “People are afraid of blood, because in their minds, blood means death,” Elito said in an interview. “But I want to twist that belief. That’s why I’m addressing its use because I want people to think that it’s not death, but love and life.”
It’s unclear how much of his own blood Elito Circa has stored in his art studio, but it must be a lot, because he has announced a plan to create the largest ever “blood painting” on a 100-meter canvas next year, expecting to set a new world record.
24. Why did Elito Circa become well-known?
A. Great details were reflected in his artworks.
B. He used a special art medium in his artworks.
C. He showed extraordinary skills in his artworks.
D. Unique thoughts were expressed in his artworks.
25. What made Elito Circa paint with blood?
A. His family’s economic conditions. B. His great interest in experiments.
C. His strong desire to stand out. D. His rich artistic imaginations.
26. How did Elito achieve a stable supply of “paint”?
A. By keeping himself in shape. B. By scraping his body periodically.
C. By having his blood drawn regularly. D. By collecting blood from a local clinic.
27. Which of the following proverbs can best describe Elito Circa’s story?
A. Practice makes perfect.
B. He who laughs last laughs best.
C. God helps those who help themselves.
D. Go your own way regardless of what people say.
C
Restaurants, farmers, and food businesses are turning to chemistry and physics to address the problem of food waste. Some companies are testing coverings to slow the ripening process in fruit and packets to keep food fresh. Others are developing digital sensors that can tell when meat is safe to eat.
Experts say growing awareness of the costs of food waste has led to more efforts to deal with the problem. ReFed is a group that studies food waste. It says new businesses raised $300 billion in 2021, double the amount raised in 2020, to solve the problem. The group says that in 2019, around 35 percent of food available in the US—worth about $418 billion—went unsold or uneaten. The US Environmental Protection Agency says that food waste is the largest kind of material placed in local waste areas. And the agency notes that rotting food gives off methane, a gas that is not good for the environment.
ReFed says 225,000 kilograms of food could be kept out of waste areas each year with special, high-tech coverings. Many companies are working on ways to help reduce food waste. Sweden-based Innoscentia is developing a sensor that can show if meat is safe to eat by measuring the build-up of microbes (微生物) inside its container. And Ryp Labs, based in the US and Belgium, is working on a sticker for fruits and vegetables that would give off gas to slow ripening. SavrPak has developed a plant-based packet that can fit inside a container and take in moisture (水分), helping the food inside stay crispy.
“The science is promising, but it’s only part of the solution,” said Yvette Cabrera, who is the director of food waste for the Natural Resources Defense Council. “Most food waste happens at home. Reducing food sizes, buying smaller quantities, or improving the accuracy of freshness date could have even greater effects than new technology. Overall as a society, we don’t value food as it should be valued,” Cabrera said.
28. According to paragraph 2, food waste in the US has caused ________.
A. great economic losses B. seasonal food shortages
C. growing awareness of food safety D. serious water pollution
29. What’s the function of the high-tech covering developed by SavrPak?
A. Maintaining the freshness of meat. B. Keeping food from getting wet.
C. Freeing food from microbes. D. Preventing fruits and vegetables from ripening.
30. In Cabrera’s opinion, what matters more in reducing food waste?
A. Developing new technology. B. Promoting Empty Plate Campaign.
C. Shortening the process of producing food. D. Changing people’s consuming habit.
31. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Dealing with Food Waste Calls for Combined Efforts
B. Public Awareness Is the Key to Handling Food Waste
C. Food Waste Remains a Hard-to-handle Problem Worldwide
D. Companies Develop Technologies to Deal with Food Waste
D
During the COVID-19 pandemic (疫情), US citizen Elizabeth Hulanick has turned to toys from her childhood to deal with worry and stress. She started bringing Lego toys to work to build things out of the colorful blocks with her colleagues. She also started playing with Silly Putty, a toy made of special rubbery material that changes colors. She said it brought her comfort.
Before the COVID-19 pandemic, many adults turned to toys to recall feelings from their childhood. The stresses from the worldwide health crisis only made that trend grow.
Many toy makers see adults’ interest in toys as a durable thing, even after the pandemic fully ends. This so-called “kid-adult” market is a big part of the toy industry. The market is the second-fastest-growing group after customers aged 12 to 17.
Some toy companies are creating new products, services and websites designed for adults. For example, Mattel’s American Girl Cafe recently added alcoholic drinks to their menu after seeing adults show up without children. American Girl makes popular, costly dolls. Last year, the company Build-a-Bear started a website called Bear Cave for customers aged 18 and over. Products include a toy rabbit holding a bottle of wine. Even the fast -food restaurant McDonald’s is marketing to toy-loving adults . It started its adult Happy Meals in October. McDonald’s President and CEO Chris Kempczinski said the company sold half its supply of collectible toys in the first four days of the special deal. The Lego Group has been increasing its products for adults since 2020. It now has 100 toys designed for adult customers. Among the most popular toys for adults are Star Wars and Harry Potter-linked Lego sets.
Genevieve Cruz is senior director at Lego. She said, “The pandemic certainly served as a catalyst (催化剂) for this trend as adults found themselves stuck at home with nothing else to do and a lot of time on their hands. We do believe the trend goes beyond the pandemic.”
32. What’s the author’s main purpose in mentioning Elizabeth Hulanick in paragraph 1?
A. To recommend a fun way to handle stress.
B. To prove the benefits of playing with toys.
C. To introduce the topic to be discussed in the text.
D. To show the popularity of toys among US adults.
33. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “durable” in paragraph 3?
A. Long-lasting. B. Far-reaching. C. Time-consuming. D. Brand-new.
34. What conclusion can be drawn about toy companies from paragraph 4?
A. They keep improving service quality.
B. They aim more products at grown-ups.
C. Their marketing direction remains unchanged.
D. Their adult toys sell better than child ones.
35. What’s Genevieve Cruz’s attitude towards the market of adult toys?
A. Opposed. B. Doubtful. C. Optimistic. D. Tolerant.

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。
Joe worked as a night watchman in a factory after he graduated from high school. It was a lonely job, but he was content. He stopped by the beach every day on his way home to watch the sunrise.
One day, he was walking on the beach when he noticed a bottle in the surf. Joe picked it up and saw a roll of paper inside it. His heart beat fast. He removed the lid and opened the letter. “Hi! My name is Ritchie. I’m sending this message in the hope that somebody will find it and become my friend.”
It saddened Joe to think of this boy waiting and hoping somebody would answer his message. He took his cell phone from his pocket and dialed the number written near the bottom of the page.
However, the number didn’t exist anymore. Joe was determined to find Ritchie, so he went straight to the city library for help. A librarian took him to a section of the library that felt deserted. There, she pointed him to the shelves filled with old telephone books. She sat down with him, and they searched the telephone books for Ritchie’s phone number together. Two hours later, the librarian let out an excited scream. “I found him!”
“Thank you,” Joe said, quickly copying down the address. He immediately headed for the address from the phone book. He almost screamed when he saw that the house at the address had been transformed into a hair salon. Joe stared at the sign. He held the message from the bottle in one fist and the paper with the address in the other. He walked in and explained everything to the barber. “Ritchie was born with disabilities. He has been using a wheelchair since he was a kid. Well, he’s an old man now. If you still want to find him, I hear he’s at the Serenity nursing home.” Joe thanked the man and drove to the nursing home.
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。
After asking to see Ritchie, Joe was shown to a sunlit room. __________________________________________

M: Oh, let me see. I can do it for 5 dollars.
W: OK.
Text 2
W: I’m really very happy. This is like all my birthdays rolled into one. I got top marks in every subject.
M: In the long run, success like this will be worth more to you than winning a large amount of money.
Text 3
M: What do you want to buy for your brother’s birthday?
W: I think he wants a new bike. His bike is getting too small for him. After I clean the floor, we could have a look at the store.
M: Sounds like a good idea!
Text 4
W: What matters most to me in a friendship is having common interests.
M: In my view, the most important thing is understanding and support. Although I don’t have much in common with my friends, I can always share good news and bad moods with them.
Text 5
W: Do you like listening to the radio?
M: Yes. But I don't have a radio at home. I usually listen to it when I drive to work in the morning.
Text 6
M: What’s your favorite food?
W: Honestly, I love ice cream. You can’t beat it. It’s a cool treat when it’s hot. It makes you feel good when you’re eating it, and it’s cheap!
M: Interesting choice, but the problem is that it isn’t healthy for you. You shouldn’t eat ice cream every day or even every other day.
W: I know, but I can’t help myself. I always have ice cream in the house. Plus, our air conditioner doesn’t work well, so I need to do everything I can to cool down.
M: Anyway, don’t eat too much. Otherwise, you’ll feel uncomfortable.
Text 7
W: Having to stay indoors is hard. We have spent February and March in here, and April is almost over.
M: But we have everything we need to survive.
W: There is more to life than just surviving.
M: Not when there is a deadly virus.
W: I can understand people not caring about staying in if they live in a nice house with a garden, or if they are in a hotel with a pool and room service.
M: Our apartment is OK. We’ll miss this way of life when it ends.
W: I won’t miss cooking. I’ll eat at a restaurant every night when this is all over.
M: The slower pace of life suits me. It is peaceful.
W: I like working with people in an office.
Text 8
M: Hello, madam. Are you looking for a new car?
W: Yes. The car I’m driving now is pretty old and isn’t working properly.
M: Well then, you’ve come to the right place! Here we have two latest models. This way, please. Look, this one is a two-seater, and it is small enough to fit in most parking spots. It gets 35 miles per gallon and has a backup camera and side cameras. It’s very convenient for you to turn the car around.
W: OK, that all sounds pretty good. But I have a family, so a two-seater car isn’t big enough. I need a minimum of four seats.
M: I see. Well, we have the other latest model for you. It’s a compact SUV that seats five persons comfortably and it’s only a few inches longer than the two-seater car. Plus, it has all the options the previous car has!
W: That sounds great. Is it possible to test drive this one?
M: Absolutely, right this way.
Text 9
W: Hello, I’m Lisa from Students’ News. I’d like to ask you a few questions. Can you spare me a few minutes?
M: Sure, go ahead.
W: Thanks. Let’s begin. What’s your favorite subject?
M: In fact, I like many subjects, such as geography, chemistry and physics. But my favorite is mathematics, which brings me joy of solving puzzles. I prefer to study it alone and spend some time reflecting on it.
W: Sounds like you have good methods of learning mathematics. What about your weak subject?
M: Oh, French always gives me a headache. Although I take notes in class,I can never get satisfactory grades in exams. But with my efforts, I have become more fluent in oral French, and I will continue to improve my French writing.
W: Good. Have you set any goals for yourself?
M: Yeah. I will take part in a chemistry competition next month, and I do hope to win first prize.
W: Good luck. And thanks for your time.

W: On March 6th, 2021, the father of the audio cassette tape, Lou Ottens, passed away peacefully at the age of 94at his home in Duizel, Netherlands. Lou Ottens created a path toward playlists and mix tapes for music lovers all around the world. He achieved this by leading the invention of the first cassette tape. He was a talented and influential engineer at Philips, where he also helped develop consumer compact discs. The old large reel-to-reel tapes that provided high-quality sound were too heavy and expensive. Ottens’ cassette tapes successfully solved this problem. He took on the challenge of shrinking tape technology in the early 1960s. At that time, he became the head of new product development in Hasselt, Belgium, for the Dutch-based Philips technology company. Ottens’ goal was to make something simple and affordable for everyone. He advocated Philips licensing this new format to other manufacturers for free. His action paved the way for cassettes to become a worldwide standard. Lou Ottens’ invention not only changed the way people thought about music, but revolutionized the process and portability of the media. This man is a legend and his invention and contributions to music will never be forgotten.

32.答案 C
命题透析 推理判断题。

A Meaningful Volunteering Experience
Last Saturday morning, I, together with my classmates, worked as volunteers in our community centre.
We helped to hand out food and medicine donated by a local company to the elderly living in our community. We also delivered the food and medicine to the homes of those who had difficulty walking or moving. Tired as I was after hours of hard work, I felt very delighted.
This meaningful volunteering experience was not only a relay of love, but also a good chance for my own personal improvement.
写作第二节（满分25分）
One possible version:
After asking to see Ritchie, Joe was shown to a sunlit room. There an old man in a wheelchair was looking out the window. Joe introduced himself and explained why he was there. He then held out the message to Ritchie, telling him that he’d like to be his friend. Ritchie was moved to tears. After that, Joe visited Ritchie every day. They were surprised to find that they had many common interests and shared a similar sense of humor. Joe was thankful he’d spared no effort to find Ritchie, but unfortunately, their time as friends would be short.
One day, Joe received a call, learning that Ritchie had passed away the previous night. Joe was sad, but he was even sadder to find that Ritchie had no family to mourn him. Joe attended the funeral and was surprised when a lawyer approached him afterward and told him that Ritchie had left him half a million dollars. “He thought highly of you,” the lawyer said, “because you didn’t give up the hope of finding the person who sent out a message looking for friends.”
