3 . When I imagine my future , I see myself successful in my job and surrounded by my family. I predict there will be new technology which will allow people to live longer and be healthier. This is why I think my happiest days will be in the future.

The technology of the future will allow me and my family to be healthy, and never worry about illness. No one will be sad because humans will have learnt to fix many of the problems that affect us now, like war, pollution and hunger. People will be able to communicate better. Technology will guarantee good health and happiness for all . I imagine that the workday will be only four hours long ,and everyone can work part-time jobs that are very interesting.We will have handy robots and computers to assist us with the things that are boring . This will simplify our lives. Maybe there will even be automatic kitchens to cook instant meals for us. Then families will be able to spend the maximum amount of their precious time enjoying each other’s company and the minimum amount of time doing housework .

I will also be happy because I will be an adult then. It’s hard to focus on being happy when you are a teenager! We have to work so hard at school, and when we try to take time to relax ,there is always someone telling us things we should be doing or learning. In the future, I will be more mature and be able to make my own decisions and do the things that I enjoy. I will have a secure job that I like and I will find happiness in being successful at it .

4 . Pizza is almost everyone’s favorite food. Recently, it has even received recognition from UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization)!

    1    

Pizza has been a part of Italian culture for centuries. In the 1700s and the 1800s, the city of Naples in Italy was an independent kingdom, known for its large working class. Pizza began as a “poor man’s food”— as a way to feed poor people quickly and at a low cost.

In 1889, King Umberto Ⅰ and Queen Margherita visited Naples, which had by then come under a unified Italy.       2     . The queen’s favorite turned out to be pizza topped with cheese, tomato, and basil — it is no surprise that it came to be known as Pizza Margherita!

When Italians from Naples moved to the United States, they brought more than just their desire for a better future.     3     , and pizza became popular in the United States before it did in Italy — the country where it was born. It was only after World War II that Italians picked up on pizza.

The art of pizza spinning.

The skills for pizza making have been passed down in the city for generations, and those who know them are called “pizzaiuoli”.     4    ; they need both talent and practice to learn to prepare, roll, and bake the dough (面团) properly.

According to UNESCO, about 3,000 pizzaiuoli work in Naples right now. In the city, there is also a pizza museum and an academy in which 120 students each year can train to become pizzaiuoli themselves.     5     . Some shops even celebrate by handing out free slices of pizza on the streets of the city.

A．The history of pizza

5 . The good news is that more people bought electric vehicles （EVs） in 2020. The bad news is that sport utility （多用途的）vehicles （SUVs） continued to grow in popularity, too. “The fall in oil consumption due to the first trend was completely canceled out by the second," said Laura Cozzi, an officer at the International Energy Agency （JEA）,

Between 2010 and 2020, global carbon dioxide emissions （排放）from conventional cars fell by nearly 35 billion Lons, due to reasons such as fuel efficiency improvements as well as the switch to electric cars. Emissions from SUVs rose by more than 50 billion tons. "While the growth in EVs is encouraging, the boom in SUVs is heart-breaking," says Peters at the Cicero Climate Research Centre in Norway.

There are many reasons for the growing popularity of SUVs. For example, rising economic boom in many countries means more people are able to afford them. Some people see them as status symbols. Also, SUVs are heavily advertised by car-makers, whose profit is higher on these vehicles. Some countries, including France, have introduced plans under which more taxes are paid on heavier cars. But Peters thinks that people who are rich enough to afford SUVs won't be deterred by slightly higher taxes. "There are now some electric SUVs available, but 1 hope one day you will see more electric vehicles brought to the SUV market," says Peters.

Even if it happens, switching to electric SUVs isn't a good solution. Due to their size and bigger batteries, it takes more resources to build electric SUVs, and they consume around 15 percent more electricity. That means higher emissions unless the electricity comes entirely from renewable sources, and higher electricity demand makes it harder to green the electricity supply.

1. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?

A．Scientists should devote themselves to improving fuel efficiency.

B．The emission of carbon dioxide of motor vehicles has hit a new low.

C．Electric vehicles will certainly take the place of sport utility vehicles.

D．The popularity of SUVs destroys some efforts at environmental protection.

2. What does the underlined word "deterred” probably mean?

A．Blocked.

B．Encouraged.

C．Removed.

D．Involved.

3. What is one of the reasons that SUVs are popular with consumers?

A．SUVs are discounted heavily.

B．SUVs are often advertised by car producers.

C．SUVs are taxed at a lower rate in some countries.

D．SUVs consume fewer resources than other vehicles.

4. What point does the author try to make in the last paragraph?

A．The electric SUVs should be made smaller and lighter.

B．The electric SUVs are a good guarantee for less pollution.

C．More electric SUVs don’t necessarily mean "environment-friendly".

D．Future electric SUVs will be powered with completely green energy.

6 . Ever since Earth formed roughly 4.5 billion years ago, its climate has gone through a number of incredible changes.

All you have to do is look at images of the Jurassic Period (侏罗纪时期) to know that at one time, much of our planet was covered in extremely hot and humid jungle. Skip ahead a couple million years and you get to an ice age event, when global temperature experienced a huge drop. While many species were not able to deal with these changing climate patterns, others successfully adapted, and some are even still with us today. Now, as humanity pushes the planet closer to another extreme climate event, scientists are eager to find out how the world's species will react. The idea was highlighted in a study published on April 6 in the journal PNAS, which showed that between 1970 and 2010, open water species such as lobsters and fish had declined by about half in tropical marine zones across the globe because over the 40-year time period, sea temperatures in those regions had risen by roughly 0. 2°C.

The lower numbers aren't a sign of all the sea creatures dying off though. In fact, the scientists found some of them outside of their traditional habitats, meaning that if a species can migrate to cooler waters and adapt in a new environment, they will.

However, those movements aren’t always a good thing; species that can' t move, such as coral, which is fixed to the seabed, rely on the fish and other sea creatures to contribute to the natural food chain and stay healthy. Additionally, when a non- native species moves into a new area, it threatens to disrupt the ecosystem that already exists there.

Depending on the species, it can take anywhere from one generation to thousands and thousands of years to properly adapt, so the changes that have occurred in just the last 40 years are very troubling for scientists. As Sebastian Ferse, an ecologist at the Leibniz Centre for Tropical Marine Research, Germany, explained, “In geological history, this has occurred in the blink of an eye. To see such changes occurring so rapidly is something quite alarming.

1. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?

A．Some species that adapted to the climate changes survived.

B．Most species were able to deal with the changing climate patterns.

C．Global temperature experienced a huge drop during Jurassic Period.

D．Much of our planet was covered in humid jungle during ice age event.

2. How did some sea creatures survived climate changes according to the scientists?

A．By changing their food chain.	B．By adjusting their own temperature.
C．By moving to other places and adapted.	D．By human beings' protecting.

3. What does the underlined word “disrupt” in Paragraph 4 mean?

A．Improve.

B．Balance.

C．Disturb.

D．Establish.

4. Which word best describes scientists' attitudes to the migration of species?

A．Optimistic. .

B．Negative.

C．Objective.

D．Indifferent.
