【题目】 Recently, I was interviewed by a parenting magazine for a story it was running on eco-parenting (环保式育儿).
The reporter explained that it was expensive to be an eco-parent, with organic baby food and clothing to buy.
But I told her, “I’m sorry, but eco-parenting isn’t about buying ecologically-produced versions of products we think we may need. It’s about discovering what we don’t need.” I told the reporter about my daughter Sarah’s simple wish for a pink balloon on her birthday, but she felt that things would inevitably (不可避免地) change as Sarah grew up and adopted more materialistic desires.
I agreed that Sarah may not always be interested in such simple gifts as balloons, but I couldn’t agree that a birthday needs to be about materialistic desires. To me, a birthday is an opportunity to celebrate the life and the development of person. Do we need to see a table covered with gifts to know that our family and friends love us? Somewhere in our consumer culture, we’ve confused material items with expressions of love and gratitude.
My own birthday was just a few days ago. It came and went in the middle of a snow storm, and my birthday party was canceled. While my husband and I spent much of the day clearing the snow, Sarah made some little dolls for me.
And when we came in to rest, Ula climbed onto my lap and sang Happy Birthday. Throughout the day, my friends called to wish me a happy day, and my mother called, upset that she couldn’t visit.
Later, my husband apologized that he was unable to do anything special for me that day. “I had a fantastic birthday,” I replied, as thought of all the love I’d felt.
【1】What does the author think eco-parents should do according to the article?
A.Buy organic foods and clothing for their kids.
B.Teach their kids to protect the environment.
C.Try to avoid buying useless things for their kids.
D.Allow their kids to make their own choices in life.
【2】What does the author intend to express with Sarah’s story?
A.A pink balloon is the best birthday gift for girls.
B.Kids’ material desires will change as they grow up.
C.We don’t have to express our love with expensive gifts.
D.A birthday is a good occasion for us to seek new experiences.
【3】Why did the author think that her birthday was fantastic?
A.Her husband did something special for her.
B.Many friends came and celebrated it with her.
C.She received meaningful gifts from her children.
D.She felt a lot of love from her family and friends.

【题目】 It was a red-letter day in the history of medicine—“Target Zero Day”, May 8th, 1980, marking the complete removal of smallpox, a terrifying disease. It was untreatable but, luckily, it turned out that vaccination(接种疫苗) provided good protection— and that mass immunization(免疫) could wipe out the smallpox virus by blocking its spread.
According to legend, vaccination was invented by Dr Edward Jenner. Jenner showed that healthy children vaccinated with cowpox, a mild infection of cattle, could not catch smallpox. He was supposedly inspired by a comment from a local milkmaid, but there is evidence that the idea came from a medical friend, John Fewster, who had experimented with cowpox. Nevertheless, Jenner deserves credit for introducing vaccination into the medical mainstream with his paper published in 1798.
In 1966, 160 years after the prediction that vaccination would clean off the disease, the World Health Organization launched its Smallpox Eradication Programme. This heroic 11-year drive was directed by two’ American public health doctors, DA Henderson and Bill Foege. Their hardships were enormous. One WHO official even promised to eat a tyre if smallpox was removed. Henderson promised to send him the tyre and wished him good appetite. But Henderson and Foege’s hard work paid off— three years after the last smallpox case was informed (to make sure no outbreaks had been missed) Target Zero Day was declared.
40 years on, why should we remember Target Zero Day? First, to celebrate victory of preventative medicine and freedom from a cruel disease. Then, we must remember the victims of smallpox. It had previously killed 1 in 12 worldwide. In 1914, a Canadian professor warned against forgetting smallpox, which was fast disappearing from North America. It went on to kill at least another 250 million people— three times more than both world wars combined. Target Zero Day also reminds us of undefeated infections, including polio, measles, malaria, and of course the coronavirus Covid-19. Let’s recognize Target Zero Day for what it is:a milestone in world history and a monument to the art of the possible.
【1】What inspired Jenner to invent the vaccination?
A.A medical friend.B.A local milkmaid.
C.Cattle.D.Children.
【2】What is the writer’s purpose of mentioning the WHO official’s promise?
A.To introduce the support from the WHO.
B.To stress the importance of good appetite.
C.To suggest the difficulty in removing smallpox.
D.To show his determination to carry on the drive.
【3】From the last paragraph we can infer that _______.
A.Covid-19 will be conquered soon
B.world wars are worse than infections
C.Canadians benefit from the vaccine most
D.smallpox is a terrifying disease
【4】What message does the text convey?
A.Every dog has his day.
B.A good beginning is half the battle.
C.A trouble shared is a trouble halved.
D.Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.

I recently had a bad cold. My Chinese friends suggested that I drank some hot water, what made me think of some common home remedies back in the US.
When I was about 10, I got a flu, and my mom didn’t take me to the doctor. First, she had me to take several hot shower. Then, she told me to put as many clothes as I could. After that, I slept under a thickly blanket. I was sweating so much as I felt like I’d just taken a bath. Within a day, my flu was gone. This kind of “sweating” is the common home remedy in the West. Other remedies include drinking ginger soda when you have a stomachache and eat chicken noodle soup when you have a cold.
