In 2014, Mahoney was asked to choose a person who regularly gave back to the Halifax community (社区) to-perform an act of kindness as part of a Facebook challenge. Mahoney chose a 79-year-old senior named Eleanor, who not only gave goods for the people at the pub where Mahoney worked but also volunteered at the local homeless shelter.
Mahoney wanted to get to know Eleanor better, so she asked that they spent a day together—picking up fruits, getting their nails done, that kind of thing. “It was the first time in years that someone had made a day about her,” says the 30-year-old. “That focus made her shine.”
Their shared experience got Mahoney thinking. How many other seniors might benefit from that kind of attention And had some of those seniors delayed their dreams because they’d been busy caring for others Chisholm, now 31, was equally interested in these questions, and together the pair set up their new charity: We Are Young, or WAY for short.
WAY has since delivered on 38 dreams and counting—from a helicopter trip over a childhood blueberry-picking place to travelling to Toronto to watch a Blue Jays game. These dreams are to work out problems caused by the health and loneliness of seniors. 78-year-old Victor wanted to go to the beach—a dream he’d given up when it became too physically difficult to reach the sea. The team at WAY offered a boat for him and his son in the fall of 2021 so they could reach the sea and spend the day enjoying themselves on the beach.
“If you lose the sense of purpose that having a passion (激情) can give you, your self-confidence goes down,” says Mahoney. “Now, Victor has got some of his self-confidence again—and his sense of humour. We want to show that anything is possible with the support of others.” “We want to create a movement that changes our whole society’s opinion and support for seniors,” says Mahoney. “That is the influence we’re trying to create.”
24. How did Eleanor feel after spending a day with Mahoney
A. She was in shock. B. She was nervous.
C. She was confused. D. She was in high spirits.
25. Why did Mahoney and Chisholm set up WAY
A. To help seniors get better care.
B. To make themselves become younger.
C. To help seniors realize their delayed dreams.
D. To realize the delayed dreams of their childhood.
26. What might Victor think of WAY after the trip
A. It was a home for him. B. It would be well received.
C. It’s much better than before. D. It might be owned by his son.
27. What can we know from Mahoney’s words
A. Seniors need more care. B. Self-confidence changes a person.
C. Seniors have a passion for their life. D. The young will create a good influence.
C
Scientists who study happiness know that being kind to others can improve happiness. Acts as simple as buying a cup of coffee for someone can better a person’s mood (心情), for example. Every day life affords many chances for such actions, yet people do not always make use of them.
In a set of studies published online in the Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, Nick Epley, a behavioral scientist, and I examined a possible explanation. We found that people who perform random (随机的) acts of kindness do not always realize how much of an effect they are having on another person. People usually think little of how others value these acts.
Across our investigations, several results came out. For one, both givers and receivers of the acts of kindness were in more positive moods than usual after these exchanges. For another, it was clear that givers undervalued (低估) their effect; receivers felt much better than the kind givers expected. The receivers also really recognized these acts as “bigger” than the people performing them did.
At first, we studied acts of kindness done for familiar people, such as friends, classmates or family. But later we found that givers undervalued their positive effect on strangers as well. In one experiment, givers in a public park gave away hot chocolate to strangers on a cold winter’s day. Once again, the experience was more positive than the givers expected for the receivers. While the people giving the hot chocolate saw the act as unimportant, it really mattered to the receivers.
Our findings suggest that what might seem small to the givers could matter a great deal to the receivers. Since these warm acts can promote our own mood and brighten the day of another person, why not choose kindness when we can
28. What do givers seldom think about
A. Comments about their acts. B. Effects of their acts on others.
C. Scientists’ explanation. D. Taste of happiness.
29. What does the underlined word “them” in paragraph 3
refer to
A. Investigations. B. Moods. C. Acts. D. Exchanges.
30. Why does the author mention “gave away hot chocolate to strangers” in paragraph 4
A. To explain a rule. B. To prove a finding.
C. To present a fact. D. To show a topic.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Warm Acts Are Usually Valued
B. Warm Acts Are Necessary For People
C. Kindness Can Have Unexpectedly Positive Results
D. Kindness Can Unexpectedly Brighten Our Own Day
D
When Mark Twain first set eves on Hawaii in 1866, he observed that wild cats were everywhere and all of them fat, lazy, and sound asleep. Nearly 160 years later, however, those cats that so delighted Twain are now widely seen as a threat to the islands.
Cats were first brought to Hawaii by ship, where they fed on mice. As their number in their new home grew during the 19th century, birds started to disappear. At least 30 types of native birds went extinct between 1870 and 1930 because of cats, according to the US Geological Survey.
Hawaiian cats don’t just threaten birds. Toxoplasmosis (弓形虫病) is a disease caused by cats and then contaminates soil and water through their waste. A new study found that two dolphins died of toxoplasmosis. From these findings the authors suggest that at least 60 dolphins have died of the disease over the past 30 years
The great majority of the dolphins included in the study were killed by other means. But “if they do become infected (感染) with Toxoplasmosis this study suggests that they die and they die quickly”, says Kristi West, one of the authors and director of the Health and Stranding Lab at the University of Hawaii.
What can be done The law that could have directed Hawaii Invasive Species Council to kill cats using poisoned (下了毒的) food didn’t pass in the state earlier this year. Animal-lovers use some medical methods to keep them from having baby cats. Ms West suggests that people have to stop deserting (抛弃) these poor cats. She says, “It’s not really a cat problem. It’s a human problem.”
32. What’s the function of the first paragraph
A. To tell us Twain’s story. B. To introduce the topic.
C. To give us an example of cats. D. To show cats are threatened.
33. What does the underlined word “contaminates” mean in paragraph 3
A. Protects. B. Frees C. Keeps D. Pollutes
34. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about
A. Dolphins are easy to get infected. B. Dolphins are killed in other ways.
C. Toxoplasmosis is dangerous to dolphins. D. Toxoplasmosis quickens death of dolphins
35. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Humans should treat cats well. B. Cats are killed by poisoned food.
C. A law has been passed in the state. D. Animal-lovers’ methods are helpful.
第二节(共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Last year I moved to the countryside, to a neighbourhood full of young families. ____36____ Without anyone really noticing, smart doorbells have quietly become very popular.
Perhaps I shouldn’t be surprised. For somewhere between $30 and $200, you can make sure that you never miss a delivery again. Whether you’re in the garden or on the other side of the world, if someone rings your bell, you’ll know who’s calling because of the built-in camera. And if you can’t get to the door, you can even talk back to them using your phone. ____37____ They may be people who don’t work from home, people who can’t walk easily, or people like me, who are lazy.
However, actually making certain which doorbell to buy is difficult as there are many different types to choose from. So how should you choose which one will work best for your home
____38____ Some doorbells have a wider field of view than others, meaning the camera will see more. One increasingly common feature (特征) on doorbells is a second camera that points down towards the ground to see any packages that have been dropped outside your door.
But in my view, the most important part when picking a smart doorbell is safety. ____39____ That is because a smart doorbell is to protect your home, but considering your doorbell camera will be recording exactly when you enter and leave your own home, it’s important to make sure your data (资料) is kept safe.
And finally, the big question: Which brand (品牌) should you go for Considering the state of the market, I’d recommend choosing a big name you have heard of. Because while you might pay a little more than others, it will make you safer. ____40____
A. Here are features to look out for.
B. Besides, it’s a great idea for everyone.
C. This might sound like a strange concern.
D. The most obvious thing to look at is features.
E. It might only cost you 35 for the actual hardware.
F. It will also probably be more dependable in the long term.
G. While walking through it, I noticed something unexpected.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是一项研究发现，做善事可以给自己和他人带来意想不到的积极的影响。
【28题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“We found that people who perform random (随机的) acts of kindness do not always realize how much of an effect they are having on another person.(我们发现，进行随机善举的人并不总是意识到他们对另一个人的影响有多大。)”可知，做善事的人不总是能意识到他们对他人的影响。故选B项。
【29题详解】词义猜测题。them通常指代的是上文中的名词复数；根据第三段中的“The receivers also really recognized these acts as “bigger” than the people performing them did.(接收者也真正认识到这些行为比表演它们的人“更大”。)”可知，此处them指代的是上文中的these acts，也就是文章讲述的“善举”。故选C项。
【30题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段中的“But later we found that givers undervalued their positive effect on strangers as well. (但后来我们发现，给予者也低估了他们对陌生人的积极影响)”推知，下文提到给陌生人送咖啡这一事例是为了证明研究发现是正确的。故选B项。
【31题详解】主旨大意题。根据尾段中的“Our findings suggest that what might seem small to the givers could matter a great deal to the receivers.(我们的研究结果表明，对给予者来说似乎很小的东西对接受者来说可能很重要。)”以及全文中的研究发现可知，做善事的人觉得微不足道的事情，却既可以给给予者以及接受者都会带来意想不到的影响，所以本文的题目是“善举会有意外的积极的效果”。故选C项。
32. B 33. D 34. D 35. A
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要讲述在夏威夷，猫成为了对当地有威胁的动物。
【32题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段“When Mark Twain first set eves on Hawaii in 1866, he observed that wild cats were everywhere and all of them fat, lazy, and sound asleep. Nearly 160 years later, however, those cats that so delighted Twain are now widely seen as a threat to the islands. (1866年马克·吐温第一次登上夏威夷时，他发现野猫到处都是，它们都很胖，很懒，睡得很熟。然而，近160年后，那些让吐温如此高兴的猫现在被广泛视为对群岛的威胁。)”可知，这一段是要引出这篇文章的话题——那些让吐温如此高兴的猫现在被广泛视为对群岛的威胁。故选B。
【33题详解】词句猜测题。根据第三段“Hawaiian cats don’t just threaten birds. Toxoplasmosis (弓形虫病) is a disease caused by cats, and then contaminates soil and water through their waste. (夏威夷猫不仅威胁鸟类。弓形虫病是一种由猫引起的疾病，然后通过它们的排泄物contaminates土壤和水。)”可知，contaminates是动词，这里是描述猫对当地造成的危害，所以contaminates应该是“污染”的意思，和选项D意思一致。故选D。
【34题详解】主旨大意题。根据第四段“The great majority of the dolphins included in the study were killed by other means. But “if they do become infected (感染) with Toxoplasmosis, this study suggests that they die and they die quickly”, says Kristi West, one of the authors and director of the Health and Stranding Lab at the University of Hawaii. (研究中包括的绝大多数海豚都是通过其他方式被杀死的。但是，作者之一、夏威夷大学健康与搁浅实验室主任克里斯蒂·韦斯特（Kristi West）表示，“如果他们真的感染了弓形虫，这项研究表明，他们会很快死亡”。)”可知，这一段讲述弓形虫会加速海豚的死亡。故选D。
【35题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“What can be done The law that could have directed Hawaii Invasive Species Council to kill cats using poisoned (下了毒的) food didn’t pass in the state earlier this year. Animal-lovers use some medical methods to keep them from having baby cats. Ms West suggests that people have to stop deserting (抛弃) these poor cats. She says, “It’s not really a cat problem. It’s a human problem.”(可以做什么呢？本可以指导夏威夷入侵物种委员会使用有毒食物杀死猫的法律今年早些时候在该州没有通过。动物爱好者使用一些医学方法来防止他们生猫宝宝。韦斯特女士建议人们必须停止遗弃这些可怜的猫。她说：“这不是猫的问题，而是人的问题。”)”可知，韦斯特女士建议人们应该善待这些猫。故选A。
36. G 37. B 38. D 39. C 40. F
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍如何选择智能门铃。
【36题详解】根据下文“Without anyone really noticing, smart doorbells have quietly become very popular. (在没有人真正注意到的情况下，智能门铃已经悄悄地变得非常流行。)”可知，这是作者在村子里发现的出乎意料的事情。选项G“当我在村子里走时，我注意到了一些意想不到的事情。”与下文衔接自然。故选G。
【37题详解】根据上文“Perhaps I shouldn’t be surprised. For somewhere between $30 and $200, you can make sure that you never miss a delivery again. Whether you’re in the garden or on the other side of the world, if someone rings your bell, you’ll know who’s calling because of the built-in camera. And if you can’t get to the door, you can even talk back to them using your phone. (也许我不应该感到惊讶。在30美元到200美元之间，你可以确保你再也不会错过送货。无论你是在花园里还是在世界的另一端，如果有人按你的门铃，你就会知道是谁在摁门铃，因为内置摄像头。如果你无法到门口，你甚至可以用手机与他们交谈。)”和下文“They may be people who don’t work from home, people who can’t walk easily, or people like me, who are lazy. (他们可能是不在家工作的人，不会轻易走路的人，或者像我这样懒惰的人。)”可知，此处应描述智能门铃普遍都用着很方便，适合所有人。选项B“此外，这对每个人来说都是个好主意。”和上下文衔接自然。故选B。
【38题详解】根据下文“Some doorbells have a wider field of view than others, meaning the camera will see more. One increasingly common feature (特征) on doorbells is a second camera that points down towards the ground to see any packages that have been dropped outside your door. (有些门铃的视野比其他门铃宽，这意味着摄像头可以看到更多。门铃上一个越来越常见的功能是第二个摄像头，它指向地面，以查看掉在门外的任何包裹。)”可知，这里是说明如何从功能上选择合适的智能门铃。选项D“最明显的是要看功能。”和下文衔接自然。故选D。
【39题详解】根据上文“But in my view, the most important part when picking a smart doorbell is safety. (但在我看来，选择智能门铃最重要的部分是安全。)”和下文“That is because a smart doorbell is to protect your home, but considering your doorbell camera will be recording exactly when you enter and leave your own home, it’s important to make sure your data (资料) is kept safe. (这是因为智能门铃是为了保护你的家，但考虑到你的门铃摄像头会准确记录你进出自己家的时间，确保你的数据安全很重要。)”可知，这里是说明安全性很重要。选项C“这个担心听起来可能有点奇怪”和上下文衔接自然，this指代上文的“the most important part when picking a smart doorbell is safety”。故选C。
【40题详解】根据上文“And finally, the big question: Which brand (品牌) should you go for
Considering the state of the market, I’d recommend choosing a big name you have heard of. Because while you might pay a little more than others, it will make you safer. (最后，一个大问题是：你应该选择哪个品牌？考虑到市场的现状，我建议选择一个你听说过的大品牌。因为虽然你可能比别人付出多一点，但这会让你更安全。)”可知，这里说明购买智能门铃时要选择你听说过的大品牌。由此推知，空处继续陈述选择大品牌的好处。选项F“从长远来看，它也可能更可靠。”和上文衔接自然。故选F。
