What is sky garden?
ABOUT SKY GARDEN
Sky Garden is Londons highest public garden–a lively social space with 360-degree views of the citys iconic skyline. Access to the Sky Garden is free of charge, but spaces are limited. Visits must be booked in advance through this site, and can be made up to three weeks in advance.
OUR GARDEN
Sky Garden was designed by award-winning landscape architecture practice Gillespies. To create our richly planted terraces, the designers chose a variety of drought-resistant(耐旱的)Mediterranean and South African species. Individual plants were chosen to work in harmony with the space–flourishing(长得茂盛)all year round in full colour. Among the flowering plants are African Lily(Agapanthus), Red Hot Poker(Kniphofia)and Bird of Paradise(Strelitzia reginae)–alongside fragrant herbs such as French Lavender.
HISTORY
Sky Garden is located in 20 Fenchurch Street–designed in 2004 by world-famous Uruguayan architect Rafael Vi?觡oly. With his distinctive design, the building is extremely beautiful and impressive–using expansive sheets of glass, and growing larger as the eye travels upwards.

“Im an unconventional parent,”says Ed Stafford,who is best known as the first person to walk the entire length of the Amazon River. His wife is fellow explorer Laura Bingham, who sailed the Atlantic in 2014 aged just 21. The pioneering power couple now balance their ambitions with family life.“If shes away, I will be at home with Ran. We practice co-parenting.”
“There is no need to think parenthood should be boring. Just go out and do the things you love,”says Ed.“I think its fair to say that theres always been a restlessness(不安現状)beneath the sort of things Ive done. I decided I wanted to do something completely off my own back, so I presented an idea to the Discovery Channel. I said put me on a desert island for two months on my own with no food or water or survival kit of any description–no knife, no lighter, not even any clothes.”
Ed revealed that his biggest struggle wasnt the lack of survival equipment, however–it was the pressure of being alone. He described the experience of spending so much time alone as “extraordinarily scary”.
Luckily, in the adventure that made him famous, an extremely difficult and tiring 4,490-mile walk through the rainforest from Peru to Brazil, he met Cho, a local man who knew the dangerous places and the safe places staying by Eds side for two entire years. This unique bond helped Ed to overcome the most testing situations.“I was held at gunpoint three times by drug dealers and I was even arrested for murder at one stage, which I promise I didnt do. But what upset me most was that the Queen hadnt personally signed my passport,”Ed says, assuring the audience that his incredible tales are true.
Striking the right balance between independence and company is the secret to survival in all kinds of situations. It would seem–including parenting, the most ordinary yet incredible mission of them all.
4. Why does Ed Stafford say he is an unconventional parent?
A. His wife is the primary caretaker.
B. He thinks co-parenting unnecessary.
C. He balances independence with parenting.
D. He walks the entire length of the Amazon River.
5.Which of the following best describes Ed Stafford?
A. Boring. B. Conservative.
C. Demanding. D. Adventurous.
6. What is the biggest challenge Ed faces in his adventure?
A. Lack of company. B. Lack of food.
C. Lack of water. D. Lack of survival equipment.
7. What can we learn from Eds rainforest adventure from Peru to Brazil?
A. The adventure went smoothly.
B. Chos company helped him a lot.
C. The adventure lasted for two years.
D. Ed was not satisfied with the Queen.

Fish has long been viewed as an ideal protein(蛋白質)source and the significant source(来源)of fatty acids such as DHA. Health authorities have sometimes advised people to consume fish at least twice per week.
Globally, an estimated one trillion(万亿)fish are caught each year, illegal and mistaken catches not included. About half of the commercial fishing industry targets wild fish and other sea animals and half relies on“farms”. Concerns about both sectors grow each year.
Overfishing is rapidly destroying the living environment of sea creatures. Experts predict that, if current trends continue, by 2048 there will be a global collapse(崩溃)of all species currently fished. Various infections from farmed fish have an impact on numbers and global warming is changing habitat(栖息地); for example, sea temperatures in the Strait of Georgia and Fraser River are one and a half degrees warmer than 50 years ago. With the same goal as in agriculture business–to produce the most meat for the least money–fish farming is making the situation worse. Fish farms maintain a density(密度)of animals never seen in the wild. Poor living conditions include crowding, polluted water and disease outbreaks, causing stress, fear and pain in these animals.
Until the 90s, there was little scientific agreement that fish could feel. Since then, studies have made us rethink these beliefs. Scientific thinking can be strange; even as a child, the first time I went fishing, it was obvious the fish was not comfortable having a hook through its cheek. While farmed fish do not get the hook, out of water, their gills(鳃)cannot work normally, leading to a slow and stressful death for lack of oxygen.
Fortunately, those who like the flavor of seafood can still enjoy it without supporting environmental damage and cruelty. Products similar to breaded meat are now made from pea protein and the tastes are good. If you like the flavor of seafood, try alternatives such as Sophies or Gardeins fishless food.
8. What does the underlined word“sectors”in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Fields. B. Barriers. C. Targets. D. Mistakes.
9. What does the third paragraph mainly talk about concerning sea creatures?
A. All species fished now. B. Stress from overfishing.
C. Their living conditions. D. Infections from farmed fish.
10. What can be inferred about fish from the text?
A. Theyll die without oxygen. B. They are afraid of hooks.
C. They have diseased gills. D. They may have feelings.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Why are fish capable of feeling?
B. Why search for fish alternatives?
C. What effects does overfishing bring?
D. What will fish farming be like in the future?
D
In the age of the Internet, theres no such thing as a private debate. But is that bad for science? Some scientists have had misgivings(疑慮). When debates in any field move beyond the halls of universities and government agencies, there is potential for misuse of information and public confusion. But open debate can also foster communication among scientists and between the scientific community and the public.
More recently, a heated debate has taken place over how to distribute the COVID-19 vaccines(疫苗). For those that require two shots, should the period between them be lengthened so that more people can be vaccinated sooner? Should the second shot be dropped altogether? It isnt difficult to discover that open debate—whether on television, in newspapers, or on social media—encourages diverse voices and increases the likelihood of a good outcome.
Although this seems like a sound approach to problems, some have questioned the manner in which the debate was conducted. However, their anxiety seems misplaced. The days of having a confidential debate about scientific issues are gone, thats for the best because these days, the public can access debates about science regardless of where they take place. What matters is getting to the right place in terms of the science—deciding what the question should be, the appropriate way of answering it, and the correct interpretation of the data.
For many scientists, public debate is a new frontier. But rather than avoiding such conversations, let the debates be transparent and dynamic, wherever they are held. If we want the public to understand science is an honorably self-correcting process, lets do away once for all with the idea that science is a fixed set of facts in a textbook. Instead, let everyone see the noisy, messy discussions that advance science and lead to decisions that benefit us all.
12. What concerns some scientists in the age of the Internet?
A. There is no private debate.
B. Debates go beyond the walls of official agencies.
C. Open debate promotes communication.
D. Public debate does no good to science.
13. Why does the author mention the case of“two shots”in paragraph 2?
A.To put forward two questions.
B. To arouse readers curiosity.
C. To evidence an argument.
D. To make a comparison.
14. What is the authors attitude to public debate?
A. Favorable. B. Anxious. C. Unclear. D. Doubtful.
15. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning public debate?
A.Its appeal to the public.
B. Its benefits for science.
C. Its classification as a new frontier.
D. Its differences with science.

Dating and Job Hunting
There are a lot of similarities between looking for a job and looking for a significant other. Sure, there are differences–probably best not to end an interview with a kiss–but the similarities are worth noting. 16
First impressions are everything.
We only have one chance to make a first impression, and theres no taking it back. When people first meet you, they only know the you sitting in front of them. Put simply: going for a clean and put-together look can send a great first impression on the other person. 17
Identify whether their goals align(一致)with yours.
Why would an employer hire you if you indicate your real passion is acting but you are applying for a research role? Of course honesty is the key. 18 This is one of the top reasons that companies pass on candidates, and you certainly are not setting yourself up for success in dating with these types of closed-minded responses. Its best to keep doors open and then close them if and when youre ready.
19
Nobody needs to know your medical histories, why you had such a bitter break-up, or the names of all your first cousins the first time they meet you. Keep it brief and light, and professional in the interview setting. It is imperative (迫切的) to remain positive and professional while allowing your personality to shine.
Everyone loves to be loved.
There are people who love to play hard-to-get. 20 On the other hand, how would you feel if someone said“I love you”, and you replied,“Let me think about it and I will get back to you.”his is silly — dont make them wait.
A. Too much personal information is a turn-off.
B. Sharing your information allows your personality to shine.
C. But it is best to keep answers about the future open-ended
D. Youd better answer those open-ended questions more thoroughly.
E. If you want advice on how to score a second date or interview, here are four top tips.
F. This allows for them to concentrate on what you are saying and not on what you are wearing.
G. Regarding interviewing, it is a common misbelief that you should take a day to accept a position.

It was the start of the 2010–2011 winter season. I had been a heli-ski(直升机滑雪)guide for 13 years. Flying into this valley, things were starting to look a little sweeter.
On a normal day, I was on a helicopter guiding a group of thrilled passengers longing to ski down the mountain. After a quick scan of the helicopter area, Jim, our pilot, began to climb. Heli pilots often like to fly above mountains like a ski tourer going uphill, circling their way back and forth across the land. Jim is one of the best pilots I know—calm and extremely skilled, with thousands of hours of mountain flying under his belt. The wind could be blowing 35 mph, and if you asked him how things were going, Jim would give a little shrug(耸肩)and say,“Aw, ya know, a little windy, but its workable.”If he didnt like the conditions, he would let you know in that same calm voice: “Well, now, maybe its time we head down.”Either way, you listened to Jim.
The relationship between guide and pilot is vital to a safe and successful day in the mountains. Jim and I worked together as a team, making decisions based on detailed weather forecasts and human factors, like the experience of the group. Over the years, wed built a close partnership—we made choices in an attempt to reduce the other persons stress while guests laughed and stared excitedly out the windows in the back of the helicopter.
During the slow climb up the mountain, I looked across to our landing: a spot just above the trees. It seemed as though we were a bit higher than we needed to be. I was about to tell Jim when Jim said, in his ever-calm voice,“Erin, I think we just lost the engine.”
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Time seemed to stop.
Then, in an instant, I felt the hardest impact Ive ever experienced.

1. C 细节理解题。由大标题OUR GARDEN下面的“To create...in full colour”可知“为了创造我们种植丰富的梯田,设计师选择了各种耐旱的地中海和南非物种。单独的植物被选择来与空间和谐地工作——全年都充满色彩”,即游客可以欣赏花园里的各种植物,故选C项。

8. A 词义推断题。由题干中的sectors和paragraph 2可直接定位到第二段最后一句;句中的both应是指上句中的the commercial fishing industry(商业性的渔业)和farms(养殖业),因此,sectors意为“方面”或“领域”,故选A项。
9. C 段落大意题。由第三段首句“过度捕捞正在迅速破坏海洋生物的生存环境”和段中的“养鱼业使情况变得更糟”,以及最后一句“恶劣的生活条件包括拥挤、水污染和疾病爆发,给这些动物造成压力、恐惧和痛苦”可知,本段是讲过度捕捞和养鱼业两个方面导致海生物生存环境的恶化,故选C项。

11. B 主旨大意题。文章从过度捕捞和养殖业两个角度指出渔业现存的问题,说明渔业对环境和海洋生物具有消极影响,最后谈到鱼肉替代品的优点及获取途径,因此“为什么寻找鱼肉替代品”最符合文意,故选B项。
(D篇)本文从一些科学家对公众辩论的担忧引出观点——公开辩论对科学有促进作用。接着通过介绍对接种疫苗的公开辩论进一步指出公众辩论鼓励多样的言论,增加问题得到好的解决的可能性,最后作者表达了对公众辩论的支持,再次呼应主题,即通过公开辩论推动科学并作出最有利的决策。
12. D 事实细节题。由题干中的concern和in the age of the Internet可定位到第一段第三句“一些科学家担忧的是公开辩论可能导致信息被误用以及公众困惑”,对比各选项,只有选项D(公众辩论对科学没有好处)正确。
13. C 推理判断题。根据题干“two shots”可定位到文章第二段,shot在此处是“注射”的意思,第二段以“分-总”的结构通过对两次疫苗注射的公众辩论这一事例来论证观点:“... encourages diverse voices and increases the likelihood of a good outcome.”故選C项。
14. A 推理判断题。从第四段 The days of having a confidential debate ... where they take place.”可知作者认为私下讨论科学的日子已经过去了,如今民众对科学的公开辩论是不分何时何地的,最重要的是了解科学辩论的内容是什么,如何恰当地回应并解释数据,故选A项。
15. B 段落大意题。本题用排除法较容易,因本文并没有“its apeal to public(对公众的吸引)”,可排除A项;也不是对比与科学的不同,可排除选项D项;C中classification是“分类”的意思,可排除选项C项。此外也可根据第四段第二句和最后一句可知不要避开公众辩论,应该让每个人看到这种辩论对科学的推进作用以及会得到惠及大众的决策,故选B项。

19. A 此空设在小标题。根据本段第一句提到“Nobody needs to know your medical histories”这句话可推出过多的信息可能会使别人失去兴趣,故选A项。
20. G 此空下句有过渡短语“on the other hand”,并提到了在约会中的情景,可知上句举的应该是关于面试的例子。G选项开头也提到了“take a day to accept a position”也对应了后文的“dont make them wait”。

第一节
Recently, a handcraft competition entitled“Trash to Treasure”is scheduled to be held in our school, aiming to both raise the awareness of saving and recycling resources and enrich our campus life. Welcome to join us and enjoy it.
First of all, ranging from used bottles to discarded(丢弃的)materials, mostly the wastes in our daily life are in effect displaced treasures. Therefore, you are expected to carefully select, creatively design and eventually transform a certain piece of waste into a new environmentally friendly product, which will be displayed in the library on July 7th. In addition, to get actively involved in the competition, you can participate in the making process either as an individual or a member of a team. Ultimately, whoever attends it will receive a trophy(奖杯)as a memorial award.
Hopefully, you would make it to our activity. I have the confidence that you will harvest a great deal.

第二节
Time seemed to stop. Overwhelmed(不知所措)by a strong sense of astonishment and fear, I stood rooted to the ground, with my mouth half open. Jim allowed his training to take over and skillfully put the machine into an autorotation(自动旋转)to avoid losing control of the helicopter. Meanwhile, I called 911 immediately, in the hope that they would come in time to save us. First-aid measures flooded into my mind as I dashed to the back of the helicopter, trying to calmly state the emergent situation to the passengers. Shocked though they were, they still did as I asked. We sat tall with our arms clasped round knees, waiting for the crash.
Then, in an instant, I felt the hardest impact Ive ever experienced. Everything was dark and silent, except for the voice inside my head wondering if this was the moment I was going to die. A sharp pain reminded me that I was still alive. I tried to check other people, but I couldnt move. After what seemed like forever, a rescue team came. They found us by identifying the signal of my phone. We were sent to a nearby hospital. Miraculously(奇跡般地), all of us were slightly hurt thanks to Jims instant act and my emergency measures. It dawned on me that we should always be equipped with necessary professional skills in case of an emergency.
