A
It was late one evening I can’t remember what it was about but my dad and I had a very big quarrel when my mom was away We both said things we didn’t mean and in the end I said I’m leaving And he said Good The sooner the better
I threw a few things in a suitcase and closed the door angrily behind me not knowing where I was going After walking aimlessly for about 20 minutes I stopped at a local supermarket Then my phone rang It was my mom calling She said Hey Mary Where are you Dad is worried about you
How can he worry about me I’ve been away for nearly half an hour but he didn’t call I said with annoyance My anger returned and I remembered all the hateful things he’d shouted to me Listen Mom You can tell Dad that I’m fine I’ll call you tomorrow I said and hung up
I walked around the store trying to get my thoughts together By the time I paid for my purchases it had been much later than I used to be out alone When I left the supermarket a large piece of white paper was in front of me On the piece of white paper were these words Please come home I miss you and I’m worried about you
Then a car pulled up beside me Hanging out of the window was my dad Beside him smiling gently sat my mom And that’s when I started laughing I laughed so hard that I cried Despite my best efforts to run away from home my father finally managed to track me down I couldn’t leave now not with him sitting there with caring eyes
21Hearing Mary decided to leave home Mary’s father was very__________
A worried B angry C nervous D surprised

A became angrier than before B gave in to her father
C cried and calmed down D agreed to go home

Years ago I volunteered at a homeless shelter in Los Angeles handing out food Once I got talking with Albert a tall and skinny young guy in line He said he liked my socks Want to see mine he joked lifting his leg He was barefoot I felt a sinking feeling in my stomach
The next day after work I stopped at Ross and filled up my truck with socks The following early morning I drove over to Santa Monica's Palisades Park which is a common destination for homeless people
I took one of the bags from my trunk It was still dark out I headed for a group of three men standing around a tree probably using it as a windbreaker Two were asleep under heavy blankets and the third was digging through his collection As I walked toward him he watched me perhaps questioning my motives I thought you guys might need some fresh new socks I said handing him a pair He looked confused at first but took them and said Thank you I gave him two more pairs for his friends
I moved on An hour later I had given out all the socks Most people were sleeping and I felt like Santa I knew that when they wake up they would find a very meaningful present
That was nine years ago Every week I’ll hand out as many socks as I can If I’m on vacation or on a business trip for more than a week I bring a bag of socks with me and hand them out to the homeless on the streets in other states and countries
It’s extremely satisfying to operate under the radar(雷达) to help make some people’s lives a little bit easier Part of me hopes to see Albert out there one of these days but even if I don’t I like to think one of the pairs will find him
24 What does the underlined part in Paragraph I most probably mean
A Sorry B Homesick C Regretful D Embarrassed
25 What is Ross most probably
A A garage B A store C A public park D A homeless shelter
26 What made the author feel especially satisfied with giving out socks
A Playing Santa in public B Helping others silently
C Spending early morning at a park D Making weekends as holidays
27 Which of the following could be the best title
A Satisfactory Return from Kindness
B The Easy Way Out of Helping the Poor
C A Unique Experience at a Homeless Shelter
D Helping the Homeless in an Unexpected Way
C
When the explorers first set foot upon the continent of North America the skies and lands were alive with an astonishing variety of wildlife Native Americans had taken care of these precious natural resources wisely Unfortunately it took the explorers and the settlers who followed only a few decades to decimate a large part of these resources Millions of waterfowl ( 水 禽 ) were killed at the hands of market hunters and a handful of overly ambitious sportsmen Millions of acres of wetlands were dried to feed and house the everincreasing populations greatly reducing waterfowl habitat ( 栖 息 )
In 1934 with the passage of the Migratory Bird Hunting Stamp Act (Act) an increasingly concerned nation took firm action to stop the destruction of migratory ( 迁徙) waterfowl and the wetlands so vital to their survival Under this Act all waterfowl hunters 16 years of age and over must annually purchase and carry a Federal Duck Stamp The very first Federal Duck Stamp was designed by JN Ding Darling a political cartoonist from Des Moines lowa who at that time was appointed by President Franklin Roosevelt as Director of the Bureau of Biological Survey Hunters willingly pay the stamp price to ensure the survival of our natural resources
About 98 cents of every duck stamp dollar goes directly into the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund to purchase wetlands and wildlife habitat for inclusion into the National Wildlife Refuge System — a fact that ensures this land will be protected and available for all generations to come Since 1934 better than half a billion dollars has gone into that Fund to purchase more than 5 million acres of habitat Little wonder the Federal Duck Stamp Program has been called one of the most successful conservation programs ever initiated
28What was a cause of the waterfowl population decline in North America
ALoss of wetlands BPopularity of water sports
CPollution of rivers DArrival of other wild animals
39What does the underlined word decimate mean in the first paragraph
AAcquire BExport CDestroy DDistribute
30What is a direct result of the Act passed in 1934
AThe stamp price has gone down
BThe migratory birds have flown away
CThe hunters have stopped hunting
DThe government has collected money
31Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
AThe Federal Duck Stamp Story
BThe National Wildlife Refuge System
CThe Benefits of Saving Waterfowl
DThe History of Migratory Bird Hunting

Four Ways to Beat Summer Weight Gain

2 Stay busy When we’re bored it’s easy to fall into a trap of doing nothing and then feeling low on energy In addition to helping you avoid the cookie jar getting loads of stuff(事情) to do can give you a sense of accomplishment 34
3 Beat the heat Don’t let summer heat put your exercise plans on hold 35 if a gym isn’t your scene try howling or an indoor climbing wall If you love being outdoors try swimming or a regular run in the early morning or evening
4 36 with school out we lose our daily routines(日常工作) If you don’t have a specific job or an activity to get up for it’s easy to sleep late watch too much TV and snack more than usual Make sure your summer days have some structure– like getting up at the same time each day Plan activities for specific times like exercising before breakfast

C Stick to a schedule
D That’s especially true if a dream summer job falls through(落空)
