【题目】 The real point of human nature lies in the social bonds that we make through family, friendships, professional associations and local communities. These bonds produce a sense of common purpose and values, in which groups of people seek hard and enjoy together the things that are for the common good: a sound education, a pleasant environment to live in, a healthy population. This is what the heart of the gift economy (经济) is.
In the past, American companies operating in Japan found it difficult to attract Japanese people, even though, compared with Japanese employers, they offered more generous wages, shorter work hours and better promotion chances. But these were traditionally not so important to the employees, who did not think of their services as being ‘bought’. Rather, they felt they were entering into a long-term—“gift exchange” —relationship with their employer, which was of mutual (相互) benefit.
This relationship had many aspects. At its most basic it related the simple exchange of physical gifts. For example, if the employee got married, the company sent a gift. Another company gift which is popular among Japanese employees is the yearly company vacation. On these organized weekends co-workers share dormitories, eat together and visit the same attractions, largely at the company’s expense. For their part, the main gift given by the employees to their company is their hard work and this is why each Japanese employee gives such great attention to accuracy, and quality in their work. Even the simplest tasks are carried out with extraordinary care.
Now, neighborhood groups use online networks to share tools and skills. Someone who needs a long ladder to repair their roof does not need to go out and buy one; they simply put a message up on the neighborhood discussion board and soon a neighbor will offer theirs. Via the Internet, knowledge and advice can be shared on almost everything, from how a nuclear reactor works to how to plan your holiday. The gift economy is going through a booming time.
【1】What is the key point of the gift economy?
A.People’s working hard.B.People’s similar social status.
C.Sharing social interests.D.Accepting social bonds.
【2】Why did the Japanese show little interest in American companies?
A.The companies offered them low salaries.
B.They were difficult to get a better position.
C.The companies provided shorter vacations.
D.They didn’t want to sell their services.
【3】What does the yearly company vacation inspire Japanese employees to do?
A.Contribute themselves to the company.
B.Exchange physical gifts with each other.
C.Spend less money while talking vacations.
D.Organize more effective weekend parties.
【4】What can we infer about the gift economy from the last paragraph?
A.It is changing the Internet services.B.It benefits greatly from the Internet.
C.It is better accepted on the Internet.D.It booms the Internet development.

【题目】 The sixth mass extinction is not a worry for the future. It’s happening now,much faster than previously expected,and it's entirely our fault,according to a study puhlished Mooday.
Humans have already wiped out hundreds of species and pushed many more to the brink of extinction through wildlife trade,pollution,habitat loss and the use of toxic substances. The findings published in the scientific Journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences( PNAS)show that the rate at which species are dying out has accelerated in recent decades.
Gerardo Ceballos González,a professor of ecology at the National Autonomous University of Mexico and one of the authors of the study,said approximately 173 species went extinct between 2001 and 2014. “173 species is 25 times more extinct species than you would expect under the normal extinction rate. ”he told CNN in an email. He and his team found that in the past 100 years,more than 400 vertebrate(脊椎动物的)species went extinct. In the normal course of evolution,such extinctions would have taken up to 10,000 years,they said.
Mass extinctions are just as severe as their name suggests. There have been five mass extinction events in the Earth’s history,each wiping out between 70%and 95%of the species of plants,animals and microorganisms. The most recent,66 million years ago,saw dinosaurs disappear. The past events were caused by catastrophic changes of the environment,including massive volcanic eruptions or collision with an asteroid.
The sixth mass extinction the one happening now—is different:scientists say it’s caused by humans. The researchers also said the current coronavirus(冠状病毒)crisis shows people’s recklessness(鲁莽)towards nature can seriously hurt themselves. Many endangered species are dying in large numbers due to the trade in wild animals and plants.
【1】What does the underlined word“toxic”in Para. 2 mean?
A.PoisonousB.Useful
C.AlternativeD.Environment-friendly
【2】How does the writer convince readers of the seriousness of the mass extinctions?
A.By listing reliable statistics.
B.By imagining a picture of the extinctions.
C.By mentioning some news from CNN.
D.By explaining the history of the extinctions.
【3】What is the purpose of the last paragraph?
A.To tell the difference between the fifth and sixth extinction.
B.To explain the cause of the coronavirus crisis.
C.To warn humans to get rid of their wrong actions.
D.To show the writer’s concern about the endangered species.
【4】What does this article mainly talk about?
A.The changes of the environment do harm to wildlife.
B.The sixth mass extinction is much faster than expected.
C.Mass extinctions are just as severe as their name suggests.
D.The current coronavirus has arisen from the illegal trade.

【题目】 There are now six fires burning at emergency levels in Australia.【1】The smoke is so intense and so thick it can be seen from space. 2,000 homes have been destroyed. Six million hectares of land charred, leading to death of the nation’s wildlife.
【2】They are lightning strikes, winds and people who set fire deliberately. But one of the biggest reasons they’ve become so extreme, is the same reason as East Africa’s flood. Bushfires in Australia are a natural part of the country’s ecosystem.【3】Even New South Wales, with the largest population, is used to breaking out. In 1974, fires burned 3.5 million hectares, and in 2003, another 2 million hectares were lost to fire. But the fires that started in 2019 are even worse:4.9 million hectares in New South Wales have burned already—and it’s only going to grow.
【4】For starters, as the world is getting warmer from climate change, so is Australia. 2019 was its hottest year on record, with parts of the country reaching 45 degrees Celsius in December. 2019 was also its driest—the places here in gray have seen historic droughts.【5】Throughout the year, other large-scale climate drivers affect Australia’s weather, and its likeliness to burn. One of the most influential is the Indian Ocean Dipole(偶极子), or the IOD. The IOD is a big temperature gradient that affects the surface water in the Indian Ocean, from the edge of Africa to the edge of Australia.
A.This is just heartbreaking.
B.So why is this fire season so awful?
C.Their “fire season” varies across regions.
D.The fire season is awful because of the unknown reason.
E.The ecosystem of the country needs to be improved.
F.These record-breaking bushfires in Australia have been started by the following.
G.Together, that provides the perfect conditions for bushfires to start and spread quickly.
