21、Helping and supporting others may be key to living a longer and healthier life, according to a new research from the University of Bagel in Switzerland. The findings published in the journal Evolution and Human Behavior, show that grandparents who care for their grandchildren enjoy longer lifespans. So do old people who care for others within their social networks.
Using data from the Berlin Aging Study, the researchers analyzed the longevity(寿命) and caregiving habits of more than 500 old people between the ages of 70 and 103. The study compared grandparents who acted as occasional caregivers with those who did not. It also compared these grandparents with old adults who did not have grandchildren but cared for people within their social networks.
Those grandparents who did not play the role of attending to grandchildren were more likely to have died within just five years of the testing period. While those old adults who provided, support to their family lived for an extra seven years on average and those provided support to their social networks lived for an extra four years on average.
Although the new study only focused on old adults, it's safe to assume that the health benefits of helping and taking care of others also reach those of all ages. However, it's important to note that too much caregiving often has just the opposite effect. There's a clear link between too much caregiving and a number of negative physical and mental health consequences.
【1】How many groups of old people are involved in the study?
A．Two.
B．Three.
C．Four.
D．Five.
【2】What does the research show?
A．Old people are more likely to support others.
B．Grandparents live longer than childless old adults.
C．Supporting others prevents diseases of old patients.
D．Helping others properly has a good effect on health.
【3】What does the last paragraph imply?
A．Reducing earegiving can avoid bad health.
B．It's a good quality of all ages to be helpful.
C．Caregiving is not always beneficial to health.
D．Mental disorder is often caused by much caregiving.
22、 Renewable energy projects, including onshore and offshore wind and solar farms, have so far been subsidized (资助) by government support schemes. This has led to some to complain that clean energy is pushing up bills.
However, the most recently approved offshore wind projects will most likely operate with ‘negative subsidies’ — paying money back to the government. The money will go towards reducing household energy bills as the offshore wind farms start producing power in the mid-2020s.
This is the conclusion of an analysis by an international team led by Imperial College London researchers published today in Nature Energy.
Lead researcher Dr Malte Jansen, from the Centre for Environmental Policy at Imperial, said: “Offshore wind power will soon be so cheap to produce that it will undercut fossil-fueled power stations and may be the cheapest form of energy for the UK. Energy subsidies used to push up energy bills, but within a few years cheap renewable energy will see them brought down for the first time. This is an astonishing development.”
The analysis for five countries in Europe, including the UK, focused on a series of government auctions (拍卖) for offshore wind farms between February 2015 and September 2019. Companies that want to build wind farms bid in the auctions by stating the price at which they will sell the energy they produce to the government.
These are known as ‘contracts for difference’ or CfDs. If a company’s bid is higher than the wholesale electricity price on the UK market once the wind farm is up and running, then the company will receive a subsidy from the government to top up the price.
However, if the stated price (规定价格) is less than the wholesale price, then the company will pay the government back the difference. This payback is then passed through to consumer’s energy bills, reducing the amount that homes and businesses will pay for electricity.
The winning companies said they could build new offshore wind farms for around £40 per megawatt hour (MWh) of power. This was a new record set by these wind farms with bids 30 percent lower than just two years earlier.
【1】What does the passage mainly talk about?
A．Offshore wind farms to be built in the UK could reduce household energy bills by producing electricity very cheaply.
B．Offshore wind farms will not be subsidized by government in the near future.
C．The importance of CfDs.
D．The operation of negative subsidies.
【2】According to Paragraph 2, offshore wind farms ________.
A．will stop producing power in the mid-2020s
B．are paying money back to the government
C．will help reduce household energy bills
D．will all operate with ‘negative subsidies’
【3】The underlined words “top up” in Paragraph 6 probably mean ________.
A．make up
B．take up
C．cover
D．fill up
【4】What can be inferred from the passage?
A．The renewable energy projects will lead to some to complain that clean energy is pushing up bills.
B．The company whose bid is less than the wholesale electricity price will receive a subsidy.
C．The stated electricity price is now higher than the wholesale electricity price.
D．Fossil-fueled power will be soon produced cheaply.
23、 
I go to a gym in west London, always unwillingly. Exercise is too exhausting and boring. Always was. At school I made believe that I had headaches and parental notes too, to get out of PE classes and compulsory games. Now, twice a week, I dutifully get on cycling machines and other equipment and make myself work out for an hour. To get through the difficult hour, I people-watched: young and old, fit and unfit and Clayton Rose, one of the instructors.
Clayton is a personal trainer not only to body perfectionists, but to people who are mentally and physically disabled, the obese and hopeless. He treats them all the same. I have witnessed him listening keenly to a middle-aged working-class woman who goes on and on about her life, holidays, everything. Slim and attractive now, she was once so heavy that she was in a wheelchair. I have seen him calm down a young man with Tourette's syndrome（抽动症）and get him on a treadmill. I have also watched him pushing and coaching strong, cool men.
Clayton was shocked when I said I wanted to write about him. "Why? You know I'm not educated? I'm not clued up about politics and all that. Just an ordinary guy.”
He grew up in Twickenham, where his dad worked in a timber yard, his mum in an office. After college, the young man got into personal training and found his work. One of his best friends got seriously ill and was given months to live. Clayton put him on a program that kept him alive for almost five years: "I don't earn much, but I love my work; training and talking really helps people who don't have confidence, who are lonely, afraid, sick. Lots of people can't step into a gym. They need someone they can trust, someone who will be on their side.
The gym recently updated its equipment. The flashy new stuff confuses and upsets disabled customers. Me too. The private firm running these centers made decisions without considering these needs. Clayton is managing the chaos with grace and strength. Last week, when a young woman in a wheelchair started sobbing loudly, he calmed her down, restored her dignity, superhumanly contained his anger.
One of his colleagues thinks Clayton's "a legend". He is, and doesn't know it—a rare thing in this age of extreme narcissism（自恋）and monetized everything.
【1】Why was I unwilling to go to a gym?
A.Because I suffered from headaches.
B.Because I had bad memories of PE classes.
C.Because I had to watch a large crowd exercising
D.Because I felt it tiring and no fun
【2】How does Clayton Rose help people in the gym?
A.He brings out the best in them.
B.He helps them with illness advice
C.He treats them differently.
D.He focuses on body perfection.
【3】What does Clayton Rose like about his job?
A.The pay he receives
B.The grace and strength it brings.
C.The comforting power he gives.
D.The disabled people on his side.
【4】What is the main idea of the text?
A.Reasons to go to a gym.
B.An instructor inspiring confidence.
C.Exercise with push and inspiration.
D.Rays of hope in the age of narcissism.
24、 How long does a year last? 【1】 But your parents might say that a whole year can pass “in the blink of an eye”. Why does time seem to pass faster as we get older?
【2】 This physical change causes the rate at which we take in and process new information to decline. Babies, for example, move their eyes much more often than adults because they’re processing images at a faster rate. They take in a lot of information and do many things in a single day. 【3】 However, as people’s brains degrade over time, fewer images are processed in the same amount of time. Therefore, older people receive less information during a day than younger people. This causes things to seem as though they’re happening more quickly.
【4】 People may measure time by the number of memorable events that can be recalled within a certain period. Have you ever noticed that when you recall your firsts (first day of school, first family vacation, first birthday party, etc.), they seem to be in slow motion? That’s because when something is a “first”, there are many exciting things to remember. Recalling these memories makes you feel like they took forever.
For many adults, life is routine. When they look back, they might feel like there are not many novel (新奇的) things to remember. 【5】
A.Children might say that a year lasts forever.
B.Therefore, time seems to be moving faster to them.
C.Different people have different feelings toward time.
D.This makes them feel like a single day lasts for a long time.
E.As we grow older, we become less interested in new things.
F.According to scientists, our brains degrade and change over time.
G.In addition, people may also “feel” time differently due to psychological reasons.
