21、The idea of billions of people going through a few masks a week during this pandemic definitely rings alarm bells, but a team of researchers in Melbourne may have the solution.

They’ve discovered that adding millions of discarded face masks to road-paving (铺路) mixtures would actually lower the cost of the road, while preventing billions of them from landfills. Just one kilometer of road would need three million masks, and the polypropylene(聚丙烯) plastic used to make single-use surgical face masks also increased the flexibility and durability of the road.

The new material is a mixture of about 2% torn masks and recycled concrete aggregate(RCA)—a material obtained from waste concrete and other minerals from destroyed buildings. This recycled material was found in the study to be ideal for two of the four layers generally required to create roadways. Paving a kilometer of two-way road with the RCA and three million face masks would result in a change of 93 tons of waste from landfills.

The final product then is more resistant to wear than asphalt(沥青), as well as being cheaper too, provided there was a method for collecting masks. The research team did a cost-analysis and found that, at $26 per ton, the RCA was about half the cost of mining raw materials, and as much as a third of the cost of shipping the used masks to a landfill.

The widespread application would be ideal for large infrastructure(基础设施) projects. For example, Washington has the 11th worst roads in terms of unaddressed repairs in the U.S. If the damaged roads in Washington state were repaired with the RCA/mask mixture, it would reuse nearly 10 billion masks, sparing American landfills hundreds of millions of tons of trash.

It’s said that the team is looking for private industry partners or governments willing to give their plastic mask road an opportunity for a large-scale test.

【1】What does the underlined word “discarded” mean in paragraph 2?

A．Recycled

B．Produced

C．Abandoned

D．Mixed

【2】What is the new material used to pave ways made of?

A．2% torn masks, concrete and tons of trash.

B．Polypropylene plastic and building materials.

C．Waste concrete and other minerals from destroyed buildings.

D．Single-use surgical masks and recycled concrete aggregate.

【3】Why are numbers mentioned in paragraph 4?

A．To prove this material is cost-effective in paving roads.

B．To tell us what the team has found

C．To explain repairing roads costs a lot of materials

D．To praise the hard work the team has done.

【4】What can we learn from the text?

A．The material used to pave roads is made of masks.

B．Generally speaking, it requires two layers to create roadways.

C．The damaged roads in Washington were repaired with the RCA.

D．It remains to be tested whether the solution is practical.

22、Advertising campaigns make up a major part of an organization's budget. Not all advertising seeks to increase a company's profits; the aim of some advertising campaigns is to increase people's knowledge about their general health. Whatever the aim of the advertising campaign, it needs to result in value for money. Getting the help of an advertising agency is a good way to naked that money is well spent. Take for example the following advertising campaign, which turned out to be a real winner for everyone.

Diabetes（糖尿病）is a deadly disease. Millions of people around the world have diabetes. Unfortunately, a large percentage of these people don't even know they have it. The Diabetes Association asked one advertising agency to tell the public danger of untreated diabetes and to encourage them to take advantage of a free diabetes check programme. The agency put together a campaign, giving shocking pictures and facts hut the disease that would make people think seriously about their health.

The agency decided that, by getting people's quickly and directly, the messages in the campaign would not be missed. The campaign used TV, posters and radio to show the dangers of untreated diabetes, such as blindness, kidney disease, heart disease and nerve disease.

As a result of the campaign, the Diabetes Association reported a huge increase in the number of phone calls it received, which led to the results they were hoping for; more requests to free diabetes checks. As an added reward, the campaign also won the advertising agency an Advertising Excellence Award.

The advertising agency chose to give people the truth about diabetes. Their message wan cold and direct, but got the right results. People were encouraged to do something positive about their health, and book a free health check. This campaign shows what good advertising all about-results.

23、   Under the impression that if you want to lose weight, you have to eat less? Well apparently, the solution may not be quite that simple.

Instead, some scientists in the UK have been experimenting with ways to trick the body into feeling full.

A government-funded team has been testing simple foods found on everyday shopping lists. Bread, cheese, milk, soup and sauces can all be developed to cause the brain to send a brain signal which acts as an appetite suppression (抑制).

Peter Wilde, Scientist of UK Institute of Food Research, said, “If you can slow down the digestion of fat in the body, the undigested fat goes further down the small intestine and then it sends a message to the brain to reduce your appetite, so you can eat a normal-sized meal and the digestion is slowed down and then the message goes to your brain to reduce your appetite and you go for longer without being hungry.”

The researchers insist that the treated foods will still be entirely natural products, and free from processing.

They believe helping people to reduce weight this way is beneficial because it allows them to eat normally. The scientists also think their treatment could be taken into snacks to make sure people don’t eat too much.

The research is still at the experimental stage and it will be at least a year before their techniques can be used in a large scale human trial.

【1】What does the passage mainly tell us?

A．People can lose more weight by eating natural food products.

B．Eating less in meals can make people lose weight.

C．Fat people should eat bread and cheese every day.

D．Some scientists are doing research into a new way to lose weight.

【2】How can the new way help people lose weight?

A．Make a person lose his or her appetite for food.

B．Slow down the digestion of fat and then reduce the appetite.

C．Stop people eating food that is easy to digest.

D．Make people eat less but do not feel hungry.

【3】According to the passage, the following statements are true EXCEPT ________.

A．bread and milk can be developed to slow down the digestion of fat

B．you won’t eat as frequently as before by eating the treated food

C．you don’t have to go on a diet when taking the treated food

D．many people have been invited to test the treated food

【4】The passage most probably is ________.

A．an official document

B．a news story

C．an advertisement

D．a research report

24、   On a February morning 13 years ago we pulled into the driveway, excited and proud, and lined up our kids for photos. It was a big day, but back then we had no idea how it would shape our lives.

That van (旅行拖车) is linked to so many great memories - soccer games, camping trips, and a 24-hour journey to Florida to visit grandparents and one three-week holiday to the east coast, full of long conversations and classic rock played on cassette tapes. In that van, I laughed my head off while going out with friends, and cried my eyes out at the death of a loved one. I've dreamed and planned and moved homes while traveling on those four trusty wheels.

There were days when it drove me nuts, too. On cold winter mornings, the sliding doors would freeze shut. Anyone who wanted to sit in the backseats had to climb in through the front. Still, we've held on to our van for as long as possible. It never ever let us down, even as the repair bills got a little bigger each year and we faithfully fixed whatever was needed to keep it on the road safely.

Yesterday we finally made the decision. It was time to find a newer, smaller, more energy-efficient (高效节能的) replacement. The van was telling us it was time.

Saying goodbye is never easy. As we close the minivan chapter（篇章）of our lives, my heart sinks -- not just for the much-loved metal box on wheels that we've driven for more than a decade, but for the days, months and years that passed by so quickly. The story of our minivan is the story of our family.

【1】Why does the author mention their journeys to Florida and the east coast?

A.To share the fun they had with their van.

B.To prove that the van is convenient for travel.

C.To show how much her family loved traveling.

D.To stress the importance of keeping cars in good condition.

【2】The underlined phrase “drive someone nuts” probably means .

A.make someone excited

B.make someone crazy

C.make someone confused

D.make someone amazed

【3】How did the author feel when they decided to buy a new car?

A.Relieved B.Happy

C.Disappointed D.Sad

【4】What could be the best title?

A.Our Trips on the Road

B.Our Much-loved Minivan

C.Memories of Our Family

D.Nothing Stays Forever
