26、   I have learned something about myself since I moved from Long Island to Florida three years ago. Even though I own a home in Port St. Lucie just minutes from the ocean, an uncontrollable urge wells up to return to Long Island even as others make their way south. I guess I am a snowbird stuck in reverse. Instead of enjoying Florida’s mild winters, I willingly endure the severe weather on Long Island, the place I called home for 65 years.

I’m like a migratory bird (候鸟) that has lost its sense of timing and direction, my wings flapping against season.

So what makes me fly against the tide of snowbirds? The answer has a lot to do with my reluctance to give up the things that define who I am. Once I hear that the temperature on Long Island has dipped into the range of 40 to 50 degrees, I begin to long for the sight and crackling sound of a wood fire. I also long for the bright display of colors -- first in the fall trees, and then in the lights around homes and at Rockefeller Center. Floridians decorate too, but can’t create the special feel of a New England winter.

I suppose the biggest reason why I return is to celebrate the holidays with people I haven’t seen in months. What could be better than sitting with family and friends for a Thanksgiving turkey dinner, or watching neighbors children excitedly open gifts on Christmas? Even the first snowfall seems special. I especially enjoy seeing a bright red bird settling on a snow-covered branch. (My wife and I spend winters at a retirement community in Ridge, and I’m grateful that I don’t have to shovel.)

While these simple pleasures are not unique to Long Island, they are some of the reasons why I come back. Who says you can’t go home?

【1】What does the underlined word “reluctance” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A.Coincidence. B.Expectation. C.Unwillingness. D.Motivation.

【2】Which of the following words can best describe the author?

A.Imaginative and outspoken. B.Hard-working and serious.

C.Homesick and easy-going. D.Anxious and painful.

【3】What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?

A.To describe his dream to be a free bird.

B.To explain the reasons for moving from his hometown.

C.To praise the beauty and warmth of his hometown.

D.To express his feeling of missing his hometown.

27、Even if you think that your parents are mean-spirited at times, loving them is a normal part of life. 【1】 Here are some ways to love your parents.

Tell them you love them every morning. The gentle “Good morning” and “I love you” will warm a coldest heart. Remember that they brought you into this world. 【2】

Respect them more and value the moments with them. You can use these moments to learn from them, preparing yourself for the day when you’re off on your own. It’s OK to get angry but anger doesn’t help you or your parents. 【3】 After that, share your feelings with your parents.

Obey their requests. It will make your attitude better and earn you more respect from them. It may seem as if you are going through hell when you don’t get what you want. 【4】 Understand that parents are human beings and make mistakes. Forgiveness is the key. Since you can forgive your friends, why not forgive your parents?

【5】 Do things with your parents like watching TV, or go somewhere with them. Anyway, spend as much time with them as you can.

A．Keep them company.

B．Parents will in turn volunteer to express their love for you.

C．You love them because they created you and raised you.

D．Act calmly, write down your feelings, or talk with your friends.

E．Please remember parents are the dearest people for us in the world.

F．However, you should remember it is your parents who love you and protect you.

G．Without your parents, you might still wander at an unknown corner in an unknown world.

28、   Two teenagers are lost at sea off the coast of the United States for six days on their small sailing boat. Without any food and drink, the boys drink sea water. They try slipping into the ocean to cool off, but sharks drive them back onto the boat. At night, they use a single wet suit to keep warm.

This is a real story of two American boys. Driscoll and his best friend, 18-year-old Josh Long, were found six days later and more than 100 miles from where they had set off from Sullivan’s Island, South Carolina, on April 24. The boys had lost a lot of water and were tired, but otherwise in pretty good shape.

They set out fishing on a 4.3-meter sailboat on a windy day when the National Weather Service had warned small boats to stay out of the water, but they didn’t care. They realized they were in trouble almost immediately and tried to swim back to shore, pulling the boat along with them. Within hours, they were far out to sea.

“We lost our fishing equipment, ” Driscoll said. “So we couldn’t catch any fish. ” The boys’ hopes faded with each day passing. They stood on their boat every time they saw another boat, waving and shouting, but without success. One night they were woken up by water coming into the boat. A large ship was very close to them.

A coast guard boat set out to look for them. The boys got up and made some noise. This time, they were heard.

“What we have is a completely surprising story of survival that’s going to be studied for years to come, ” said Richard Goerling, Long’s uncle, “ I think the boys have a book to write. ”

【1】The two boys got lost at the sea because _______.

A.they were not good at boating

【2】During their stay at the sea, the boys _______.

A.swam in the water to cool themselves off in the daytime

B.lived on the fish they caught

C.suffered cold at night

D.fought against sharks

A.the boys went to the sea to go surfing

B.the boys were saved on April 30

C.some boats had found the boys but refused to offer help

D.the boys were sleeping soundly when the boat passed by

【4】It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _______.

C.the boys did very well when facing danger

D.something can be learned from the boys’ experience

29、Many companies have moved online these days, with work meetings around the world taking place virtually (虚拟地 ) instead of in the office. But a recent study has found that online meetings may affect creative thinking. The study, published in Nature, included 602 people who were divided into random pairs. Each pair was given five minutes to think of creative uses for an item such as a Frisbee, and then one minute to choose the most creative idea.

Some pairs were asked to work together on a video call, while others worked in person. The results showed that the in-person pairs had more ideas than the virtual pairs. However, virtual groups were better at choosing the best idea. The researchers also used eye-tracking technology to see whether focusing on a screen can affect a person’s creativity.

Teams working together virtually spent more time looking directly at each other and remembered less of their surroundings when asked later. The in-person pairs spent more time looking around the room, but also had more ideas.

The researchers did the same study with 1,490 company engineers. The pairs were asked to think of new product ideas and choose one as an idea for their company. The results were similar to the first study, with the engineers who met in person thinking of more product ideas, and the virtual pairs making slightly better decisions about which idea to choose.

Study author Melanie Brucks said that while she thinks the future of work is hybrid, the results suggest that businesses should think carefully about which tasks can be done online, and which—like thinking of new ideas—should be done in person.

【1】How did the experts get the research results?

A．By carrying out surveys.

B．By doing experiments in the lab.

C．By comparing different groups.

D．By watching different videos.

【2】According to the study, the in-person group pairs are suitable to________.

A．make a decision

B．do some creative jobs

C．communicate with people

D．choose the surroundings

【3】How should a boss decide the tasks for his company?

A．Brainstorm product designs through video calls.

B．Decide on the right sales plan on WeChat.

C．Come up with ad slogans in online meetings.

D．Choose the product package face to face.

【4】What’s the author’s attitude to virtual work meetings?

A．Approving

B．Uncaring

C．Critical

D．Objective
