21、   The electricity bill for an average family with 2 children is worth about 1 full salary per year, but the revolutionary EcoVolt could put 50% of that money back into your pocket.

In 2017, a revolutionary new product called EcoVolt hit the market. Initially it was separated from the general public, all because it offered the opportunity for average families to save up to 50% of their monthly energy costs. EcoVolt is a small, simple, affordable, and easy to use plug in unit that stops unnecessary power from entering the electrical cables and overloading the network, EcoVolt is the utility (公用事业) provider' s best-kept secret. They 've been trying to hide it from the everyday power consumer and even have banned the sale of it in retail shops —just to maximize their profit. However, thanks to the internet, the secret is now out, and everyday customers are now attaining the rewards of less power consumption overall, as well as less power used by household appliances. Your household appliances (家用电器) may last longer than previously. Basically, EcoVolt provides the opportunity for you to save between 30 and 50 percent on your energy bill. That's a phenomenal saving and leaves few questions as to why this has been hidden from consumers.

The benefits of EcoVolt are huge, and researchers are convinced this device could spell the end of unaffordable power bills that can cripple the average wage earner at the end of the month. Scientists initially spent many months trying to expose its efficiency, but those studies now prove that EcoVolt should be common in every household.

It's easy to connect, simply by plugging it into your wall, and it's suitable for both standard homes and apartments connected to a power grid (电网). It also has a counter which shows how you're making more efficient use of your energy, all the while allowing you to gain the rewards of a more everlasting household appliance lifecycle. In just 1-2 months, you've made your money back on your initial purchase.

22、Fragile. Oversensitive. Glued to their phones. Is this what comes to mind when we think of the teens of this generation? While this may be true, there might be more to this generation of teens than what is generally perceived.

Never before have the lives of any generation of teens been as flooded with mobile technology and social media as the teens of this generation. The popularity of social media has led to a world in which teens have to participate in Instagram, TikTok and Twitter, or else cause the social anger of their friends, some of whom communicate primarily via those online platforms. As compared to their parents or grandparents who were likely less connected and more isolated, these teens are constantly exposed to the highlight reels (高光时刻) of many in their social circles and beyond. It is no wonder that the self-esteem and mental health of this generation’s teens have taken a hit.

Moreover, the teens today are more individualistic. This is in contrast to the kampong spirit of their parents’ and grandparents’ days. Gone is the friendship among neighbours who are friendly with one another and quick to offer a helping hand when they see another in need. In its place, we have teens who may not even have a clue as to who lives in the unit next to theirs, much less offer a friendly nod or wave when they happen to cross paths with a neighbour.

Yet, the effects of technology on this generation of teens are not all bad. Arguably, the very connectedness that social media brings about has led to being more progressive. Logging onto platforms where people of all walks of life gather means that one is exposed to those people and their distinctive ways of life. In comparison, the parents or grandparents of this generation of tens probably did not have the same opportunity to get to know people outside of their social circles at their age, and are thus more likely to have fixed, stereotypical (刻板的) opinions of people different from them. This generation of teens, on the other hand, has the chance to use this technology to understand the variety and diversity out there.

【1】What does the underlined phrase “have taken a hit” mean in Paragraph 2?

A．Have been terribly hurt.

B．Have improved a lot.

C．Have recovered soon.

D．Have been ignored.

【2】Which belongs to the kampong spirit according to Paragraph 3?

A．Telephone your parents regularly.

B．Never say Hi to your classmates.

C．Share your food with neighbours.

D．Borrow money from your teacher.

【3】What good effect does social media have on the teens?

A．They are more ambitious and active.

B．They are more friendly and generous.

C．They are more independent of their parents.

D．They are more open-minded and better informed.

【4】How is the text developed?

A．By giving examples.

B．By showing statistics.

C．By making comparisons.

D．By providing instructions.

23、The Five Best Countries TO Move To For Retirement

Retiring in a different country is gaming popularity. Below are five of the best countries to seek retirement

Costa Rica

Mild climate, breathtaking landscapes and beaches draw retirees(退休人员）to Costa Rica. The country readily welcomes immigrants and offers a simple residency process. With a monthly income of at least $ 1,000 per month from Social Security or a similar source, people enjoy a high standard of living at a much lower cost than the U. S.

Malaysia

Retirees who choose to make Malaysia home will appreciate its rich culture and attractive scenery. Moreover, the country offers modern facilities at modest prices. Immigrants enjoy convenience and comfort in their daily life. You will find low-cost rental units, delicious street food, and various shopping malls.

Mexico

Because it’s close to the U.S., Mexico draws more than a million American retirees to its borders. Increasing immigrant communities enjoy seaside living and conversations with friendly. English speaking locals. Plus, legal residents over the age of 60 receive airline, grocery, and restaurant discounts.

Panama

Gentle ocean wind takes the heat out of hot year-round temperatures, which has been the chief attraction to foreign retirees. Beautiful beaches and a booming economy also attract retirees to Panama. An income of $2,000 per month covers modest living costs. Furthermore, the country offers discounts to retirees with a special visa.

Ecuador

Lazy coastal towns, sun-shining hot spots, and nature-filled views wait for immigrants seeking a carefree lifestyle. Public transportation costs in Ecuador make owning a vehicle unnecessary. A bus ride only costs 25 cents and taxi rides will run about $3.

【1】What do Costa Rica and Malaysia have in common?

A. Convenient shopping.

B. Relatively low living cost.

C. Various cultural activities.

D. Simple immigration procedures.

【2】Which country’s location specially attracts retirees from the U.S.?

A. Malaysia’s.   B. Mexico’s.

C. Panama’s.   D. Ecuador’s.

【3】What is the main reason for retirees to choose Panama’?

A. Beautiful beaches.   B. A booming economy.

24、   Megan Piontkowski, an artist and illustrator, was out of work due to the pandemic (流行病). She learned through a friend that a Brooklyn hospital needed fabric masks for workers. Piontkowski already had some fabric on hand and a sewing machine, so she got to work. She washed the fabric, sewed masks, washed them again, and hung them to dry. After that she drove them to the hospital. When she asked if the hospital would pay for the masks. she was told they had no money.

“I felt very mixed about it,” she told VOX, a famous American TV station. She knew the hospital needed masks badly. But meanwhile, “I’m out of work and I 'm being asked to donate them.” “The fact that she wasn't compensated(补偿) for sewing highly necessary items felt like a ease of traditional ‘women’s work’ not being valued,” Piontkowski said. While larger companies have begun massive cloth masks in recent weeks, much of the work of making the protective clothes, especially in the early stages of the pandemic, was done at home-often by women. That gender breakdown is continuing in some volunteer efforts-about 85 percent of the around 70 volunteers sewing masks for the New York City-based group Face Mask Aid, for example, are women.

And masks are only part of the story. The demands of daily life during the coronavirus pandemic are many, from shopping for food shortages and virus fears to caring for children when schools and day cares are closed. And in many cases, women are the ones figuring out how to meet those new demands. Some women are still working outside the home a essential workers but shouldering care responsibilities when they get home.

It doesn’t have to be this way. With more men going into tasks like cooking and educating children, it is potential to reset gender norms. “The pandemic is potentially sparking new conversations about divisions of labor,” Jill Yavorsky, a sociology professor at the University of North Carolina, Charlotte, told VOX.

【1】What can we learn about Megan Piontkowski from paragraph 1?

A.She would be paid for the masks.

B.She used the fabric to make masks.

C.She often worked for a Brooklyn hospital.

D.She usually drove to the hospital with masks.

【2】What does the underlined word “mixed” in paragraph 2 mean?

A.Confused. B.Upset.

C.Combined. D.Anxious.

【3】What can we learn from Paragraph 2?

A.Traditional women's work is highly valued.

B.Women are expert at making protective clothes.

C.Gender breakdown is going on in some volunteer efforts.

D.Larger companies produced massive masks al the beginning.

【4】What conclusion can we draw from the last two paragraphs?

A.Now men do more chores than women. B.It is unlikely to reset gender norms.

C.Women did all the tasks all the time. D.New division of labor might appear.
