2 . Every New Year, many people make promises to themselves, only to see them fall by the wayside within a few months, weeks, or even days. However, 26-year-old Luke Cameron is not among those people. After losing a close friend known for her generosity (慷慨) and died of cancer in 2013, the young man decided to do at least one good deed (好事) every day for 365 days and he has not missed one yet.

Cameron performed his first good deed on January 1st, 2014, with the simple act of greeting a waitress at a cafe he visited. The next day he bought food and drinks for some homeless people. Cameron’s good small deeds have been recorded in an online diary, like taking out the garbage for an elderly neighbor or spending a few hours helping a disabled lady pick out a dress for a party. What’s more, the young man has also spent close to £4,000 of his own money, buying gifts for children in need.

Cameron has created a series of some cards, which he has called “Cards for Kindness”. Each card suggests a simple act of kindness — things like giving a stranger a hug or making peace with an enemy, which is to encourage others to perform good deeds.

Cameron’s generosity has not gone unnoticed. To reward the young man as he nears the end of his journey, pizza chain Domino’s recently awarded him a year’s supply of free pizza. Not surprisingly, the big-hearted young man has decided to use the gift to hold special pizza days for charity. His kind deeds have also won him a competition for the job of “National Philanthropy (慈善事业) Manager”.

1. What made Cameron decide to do good deeds every day?

A．The need of a competition.	B．The requirement of his job.
C．The influence of his families.	D．The death of a close friend.

2. What is the second paragraph mainly about?

A．The influence of simple acts of kindness.	B．The good things that Cameron has done.
C．The importance of having close friends.	D．The prizes that Cameron has received.

3. Why did Cameron create “Cards for Kindness”?

A．To record his good deeds.	B．To make peace with an enemy.
C．To raise money for some charities.	D．To encourage people to show kindness.

4. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A．No Pains, No Gains	B．The Power of Dreams
C．A Good Deed Every Day	D．The Best Man in Britain

3 . As people are becoming more socially conscious about where their food comes from and how it impacts the planet, they are choosing animal-free plant-based options. Cow-free meat has been around for quite some time and the popularity of brands of the cultivated (培育的) meat is rising. While there are a large number of plant-based milk substitutes (替代品), none of them have the same taste of cow’s milk. Now, a food-tech company created real dairy products (奶制品) without harming a single cow or the planet.

The company stresses that their product produced in the lab is not a milk substitute but rather is the real deal. And it is very healthy. The company also says that the lab-produced milk tastes the same as the real thing and they hope to eventually replace cows by creating every dairy product sold. They expect to roll out plant-based cheese and yogurt in addition to milk. “Our company was founded with the mission to stop using animals to produce our food because, as dairy lovers, we realize that giving up on milk is not a choice,” John said. “But today’s milk comes with an unreasonable price tag. The dairy industry is destroying our planet, our health, and our animals, and is simply not sustainable (可持续的) anymore.”

The environmental price tag of dairy farming is too high. According to the World Wildlife Fund, dairy cows add a huge amount of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere and contribute to global warming and climate change as well as pollute the air around them. Dairy operations consume large amounts of water and run-off of manure (粪肥) and fertilizers from these farms get into local waterways. The production uses only 5 percent of the resources and produces only 1 percent of the waste of producing cow’s milk according to the company. And they accomplish this by being 100 percent cruelty-free unlike dairy farms.

1. The food-tech company’s milk mentioned in the text differs from other milk substitutes in_______.

A．its various plant-based flavor	B．it tastes the same as cow’s milk
C．its highest output from the farms	D．its broad popularity home and abroad

2. What can we know from John’s words in paragraph 2?

A．Prices of cow’s milk are rising these days.

B．All the destructive dairy industries should be shut down.

C．The food-tech company was set up for animal protection.

D．The food-tech company aims to produce animal-free food.

3. What does the underlined word “them” probably refer to in the last paragraph?

A．Dairy cows.	B．Dairy operations.
C．Climate changes.	D．Greenhouse gases.

4. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A．Healthier Milk	B．New Milk Saves Planet
C．Fresher Milk, Better Future	D．Making Milk without Cows

9 . Have you ever been labeled “perfectionist”? Or do you consider yourself to be one? It’s inviting to see perfectionism as a desirable or positive quality.     1    

Healthy perfectionists want to develop their skills continually. Their standards are always rising, and they approach work with optimism, pleasure and a desire to improve. Unhealthy perfectionists, however, are never satisfied with what they achieve.     2     They may experience fear of failure, anxiety and other painful emotions.

    3     According to a 2011 research, perfectionism is linked to health issues such as eating disorders and depression. Perfectionism can also seriously impact your creativity. This is because perfectionism can prevent you from leaving your comfort zone and taking risks.     4     You may avoid starting a new project until you’ve found the best way to approach it. You might also get caught up in minor details or repeat tasks that have already been completed. As a result, this wastes time that could have been spent on more important tasks.

If you think that you have a problem with perfectionism, start by setting realistic goals. Think about your most important life and career goals.     5     Not only will this make it easier to reach your objectives, but you’ll also experience the thrill of achieving these smaller goals.

Perhaps Theodore Roosevelt said it best — “Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.” Accept that this is the best you can do and don’t try and make up some perfect world.

A．It may also lead to self-criticism.

B．If something isn’t perfect, they refuse it.

C．Perfectionism can damage your productivity, too.

D．Then, break them down into monthly or yearly steps.

E．In fact, severe perfectionism can do more harm than good.

F．It shows that you have a goal and are not afraid to push yourself.

G．When perfectionism gets out of control, it can harm you in many aspects.

10 . My wife and I were attending a wedding at St. John’s Church. The sound of _________ rang to the heavens as the ceremony continued.

Now 73, Casper was a brilliant and talented softball pitcher (投球手)back in the Men’s Leagues of Philadelphia in the mid-60s. I did not _________ the now silver-haired fellow until my brother-in-law John mentioned his name to me!

I did not remember the letter, but he said, “Yes, I still have it, and I read it any time _________ aren’t going too well.” He said that he had read the letter many times, and the situation always seemed to improve. I was puzzled and speechless!

He continued, “You don’t remember?” I said, “Sadly, no, I don’t.” But I did ask if I could have a(n) _________ of the letter. He said he would email it to me.
