21、阅读理解。阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

The Colonel（上校） asked Ashenden a good many questions and then suggested that he had particular qualifications for the Secret Service. Ashenden knew several European languages and the fact that he was a writer provided excellent cover: on the pretext（借口） that he was writing a book he could, without attracting attention, visit any neutral country.

It was while they were discussing this point that the Colonel said, "You know you might get material that would be very useful to you in your work. I'll tell you an incident that occurred only recently. Very dramatic. A foreign government minister went down to a Mediterranean resort to recover from a cold and he had some very important documents with him that he kept in a dispatch case（公文箱）. A day or two after he arrived, he picked up a beautiful blonde at some restaurant or other, and he got very friendly with her. He took her back to his hotel, and when he came to himself in the morning, the lady and the dispatch-case had disappeared. They had one or two drinks up in his room and his theory is that when his back was turned the woman slipped a drug in his glass.

"Do you mean to say that happened the other day?" said Ashenden.

"The week before last."

"Impossible," cried Ashenden. "Why! We've been putting that incident on the stage for sixty years, we've written it in a thousand novels. Do you mean to say that life has only just caught up with us?"

"Well, I can guarantee the truth of the story." said the Colonel, "And believe me, the government has been put to no end of trouble by the loss of the documents."

"Well sir, if you can't do better than that in the Secret Service," sighed Ashenden, " I'm afraid that as a source of inspiration to the writer of fiction, it's washout（失败）."

【1】How did the Colonel suggest that Ashenden's being a writer would relate to his work as a spy?

A. It would make traveling abroad more possible.

B. It would make it easier for him to meet people.

C. It would enable him to avoid arousing suspicion.

D. It would enable him to use the languages he knew.

【2】The reason for the Minister's trip was ________ .

A. to fetch some documents

B. to get over an illness

C. to meet a spy

D. to deliver some papers

【3】According to the Colonel the incident happened _______.

A. a few days before

B. a few weeks before

C. two weeks before

D. sixty years before

【4】Ashenden cried 'Impossible' after hearing the Colonel's story because he thought ______ .

A. it was so stupid

B. it was too close to fiction

C. it was too embarrassing

D. it was too recent

22、   The lights go down, music plays, and a young woman on a bike at the front of the class encourages students to spin faster and harder. When the lights go back on, the students on the bikes pull out their notebooks, and it’s clear that this is not SoulCycle. Instead, it’s a first-of-its-kind business school course at Fordham University that is taught on spin bikes in a university.

“It’s the first class that I mention to anybody when anybody asks me what classes I’m taking,” said Amanda Vopat, 22, a business administration major. “I think people are really excited about it.”

The 75-minute, twice-weekly course is the brainchild of Julita Haber, a business school professor at Fordham. “I have been introducing movement and fitness in my classes for the past seven years,” she said. “I found the spin class would really allow students to exercise while a professor lectures at the same time.”

The course the students are taking while cycling is no joke. Managing Professional Relationships is an upper-level business school course taken primarily by juniors and seniors. The students are fully instrumental in each class, selecting the music, leading stretches before and after class and leading the intervals during the class.

Haber stops her lecture every 20 minutes throughout the class. While one student turns off the lights, another student turns up the music and a third student goes to a bike in the front of the class to lead their classmates in high-intensity interval that lasts two to three minutes, just enough to re-energize the students.

“It’s a fantastic way of engaging students and as a professor, as a teacher, that’s really gratifying,” she said. “They don’t have their smartphones, and they don’t have laptops so they are physically engaged and also mentally engaged in what is being said.”

The course is the first of its kind at Fordham, and Haber believes it is also a first across the United States. She has authored research on the unique classroom approach, which she calls fitness integrated learning.

Donna Rapaccioli, the head of Fordham’s Gabelli School of Business, described how students were “energized” by the class and said Fordham was open to expanding it to other courses. “Definitely,” Rapaccioli answered when asked if Haber’s course represents the future of learning.

【1】What might SoulCycle be?

A.A repair shop. B.A healthy club. C.A bicycle store. D.A music studio.

【2】What do we know about the business school course?

A.It was originally thought up by Julita.

B.It lasts seventy-five minutes without breaks.

C.It is open to all students at Fordham University.

D.It was taught in a university gym once every 2 weeks.

【3】What does the underlined word “gratifying” in Paragraph 6 most probably mean?

A.Inspiring. B.Interesting. C.Surprising. D.Satisfying.

【4】How did Donna Rapaccioli sound?

A.Proud and confident. B.Hopeful and cheerful.

C.Informal and friendly. D.Humorous and clever.

23、Yelp, the San Francisco Internet company that makes reviews of restaurants and other businesses across a large part of America, is getting into the food delivery business.

Today, the company has announced that it has agreed to acquire Eat24, a food company that delivers food to homes on behalf of partner restaurants. Yelp is paying $134 million for the company—$75 million in cash and the rest in stock. Eat24 works with 20,000 restaurants in more than 1,500 cities all over the U.S.

On Yelp's reviews site, you can find new restaurants to suit your tastes, and now that the company is acquiring Eat24, the idea is that it will also let you take the next step: order food to your door.

“If you're looking at a restaurant, you want to be able to book that restaurant,” Yelp co－founder and CEO Jeremy said in a Tuesday interview. “If we can integrate(融入) that into the Yelp experience, it makes the site much better.”

The move is just one way that some of Internet's most recognizable names are branching into online food delivery to improve their existing business. Last August, payments company Square bought Caviar, a high－end quick food delivery service. And that same month, Uber tested a fast food delivery service called UberFRESH, which aimed to deliver meals from local restaurants to customers in less than 10 minutes.

In each case, food delivery can provide an added source of income, and it can also help these companies push the use of their existing services. The market for food delivery is hardly small, and mobile technologies can speed up the process, potentially expanding the business even further.

【1】How does Yelp pay for the company Eat24?

A. Totally by cheque.   B. Totally in cash.   C. Only in credit   D. Partly in stock.

【2】What can customers NOT do on the new Yelp's website?

A. Finding the restaurants they like.   B. Booking a restaurant they like.

C. Enjoying much cheaper food.   D. Ordering food to their door

【3】What does the underlined word “acquire” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A. Purchase..   B. Claim.   C. Request.   D. Bargain

【4】From the passage, we can infer that many companies ________．

A. begin to set up their own food branches

B. begin to attach importance to food delivery making

C. make little money from their existing business

D. give up the present business and turn to food making

24、What would the world be if there were no hunger? It’s a question that the late ecologist Donella Meadows would ask her students at Dartmouth College back in the 1970s. She set out to create a global movement. The result—an approach known as systems thinking—is now seen as essential in meeting big global challenges.

Systems thinking is crucial to achieving targets such as zero hunger and better nutrition because it requires considering the way in which food is produced, processed, delivered and consumed, and looking at how those things relate with human health, the environment, economics and society. According to systems thinking, changing the food system—or any other network—requires three things to happen. First, researchers need to identify all the players in that system; second, they must work out how they relate to each other; and third, they need to understand and quantify the impact of those relationships on each other and on those outside the system.

Take nutrition for example. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization tracked 150 biochemicals in food and various databases, which revealed the relationships between calories, sugar, fat, vitamins and the occurrence of common diseases. But using machine learning and artificial intelligence, network scientists propose that human diets consist of at least 26,000 biochemicals and that the vast majority are not known. This shows that we have some way to travel before achieving the first objective of systems thinking—which, in this example, is to identify more constituent parts of the nutrition system.

A systems approach to creating change is also built on the assumption that everyone in the system has equal power and status. But the food system is not an equal one. There have been calls for a World Food and Nutrition Organization, so that legally binding policies can be applied to all its members. Another way to address power imbalances is for more universities to do what Meadows did and teach students how to think using a systems approach.

A team of researchers has done just that, through the Interdisciplinary Food Systems Teaching and Learning program. Students from disciplines including agriculture, ecology and economics learn together by drawing on their collective expertise in tackling real-world problems, such as how to reduce food waste. Since its launch in 2015, the program has trained more than 1,500 students from 45 university departments.

More researchers, policymakers and representatives from the food industry must learn to look beyond their direct lines of responsibility and embrace a systems approach, as the editors of Nature Food advocate in their launch editorial. Meadows knew that visions alone don’t produce results, but concluded that “we’ll never produce results that we can’t envision”.

【1】The passage is mainly about ________.

A．how to conduct research efficiently

B．how to build a world food organization

C．an approach to solving real-world problem

D．an approach to applying scientific findings

【2】According to paragraph 3, the study conducted by network scientists revealed that ________.

A．artificial intelligence is more useful than traditional methods

B．achieving systems thinking requires identifying more components

C．we are unable to gain thorough understanding of our nutritious system

D．some biochemicals are related with the occurrence of common diseases

【3】According to the passage, what do we know about the Interdisciplinary Food Systems Teaching and Learning program?

A．It is the only way of solving imbalance in our food system.

B．It aims to urge the governments to carry out its food policies.

C．It seeks to solve theoretical issues about food and nutrition

D．It has cultivated many interdisciplinary talents since its launch.

【4】What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?

A．Results can’t be produced.

B．Vision brings about change.

C．Action matters more than saying.

D．Systems thinking is too difficult to realize.

25、A nonprofit is making their community more inclusive and accessible, one tool at a time.

Most can’t _________ to buy pricey tools themselves, nor can they afford to _________ someone else to repair their homes. That’s where the Chicago Tool Library comes in!

Tessa Vierk and Jim Benton started the tool library in 2019. It _________ exactly like a regular library, except _________ books, people can borrow tools they need for home _________, woodworking, gardening, cooking, camping, sewing, and more. People _________ for a library card, and there’s a pay-what-you-can annual fee with no standard or minimum payments. _________ can borrow as many __________ as they can carry for seven days, and renew them if they need more time.

When the library first __________, they had about 150 members. During the pandemic (流行病) when more people were home, their membership increased __________. They now have over 1,500 members from all over the Chicago area and more than 2,500 tools to choose from. In fact, they’re growing so fast that they’ve had to __________ tool donations. So now they’re searching for a __________ building to hold “twice as many tools”. They haven’t found the __________ expansion space yet, but they’re looking for a place that’s easily __________ from the transit (运输) system to make their __________ available to even more people.
