26、 On days like this, I like to leisurely leaf through the pages of my cookbooks. There’s something about a book dedicated to the preparation of good food that brings with it a feeling of comfort and belonging.
There are three types of cookbooks I favor in these challenging times: those from the warm climates, those I’ve picked up on my travels and community cookbooks.
I look through Mediterranean cookbooks with color photos of spicy foods and market stalls where fresh-picked fruits and vegetables sit in the shade, unknown and exotic.
Another source of pleasure and comfort is the regional cookbooks I have found while traveling. Looking through the pages, I wander the streets of the towns I have passed through.
Most comforting to me in these isolating times are the community cookbooks, where friends and neighbors generously share their favorite recipes. The contributors are home cooks; the resources and ingredients are accessible to neighbors and friends, some passed down from one generation to the next.
I came across one the other day that I bought at an auction. This cookbook had once belonged to a woman who did her cooking and baking using a woodstove. The recipes are handwritten. The unique writing of each contributor lends the pages an intimacy, as if your neighbor just handed you the recipe. Each recipe stirs up an image of the person who wrote it, and it’s like being with them in their kitchen.
The pages of this book have small notes in the margins. Jammed into the pockets at the front and back are recipes cut out of newspapers, and on the blank pages at the end, recipes taped to the page or hastily wrote down.
These recipes from the 1960s carry me back to the meals of my childhood. My mother was a full-time homemaker until my early teens. And when we opened the front door after school, we were often greeted by the smell of peanut butter or oatmeal cookies.
Still, there is something reassuring about the cream of mushroom soup, the canned tuna fish, the large amounts of butter and white sugar — comfort food — that has special appeal in these lockdown days. Maybe it’s the memory of the reliable routine of family dinner and conversation. Or maybe it’s remembering the moment we took before eating to acknowledge our good fortune in sharing the offering of a meal.
【1】What do we know about the regional cookbooks?
A．They are from the warm climates.
B．They specialize in homestyle dishes.
C．They are connected with handwritten recipes.
D．They remind the author of where she has been.
【2】What does the underlined word “intimacy” in paragraph 6 probably mean?
A．Mystery.
B．Closeness.
C．Imagination.
D．Seriousness.
【3】Why does the author recall her mother in the second-to-last paragraph?
A．The cookbook was passed down from her mother.
B．Her mother contributed recipes to the cookbook.
C．The style of the recipes feels like her mother’s.
D．Her mother wanted such recipes years ago.
【4】What is the best title of the article?
A．Missing cookbooks
B．Reviewing cookbooks
C．Escaping into cookbooks
D．Collecting favorite cookbooks
27、Many things make the 2022 World Cup one of the most unique world cups in the history of football. Let’s take a closer look at some of the most interesting facts about the 2022 World Cup that make it unique in every way.
1. Application of the new technology
Earlier this year Adidas revealed “Al Rihla,” the official match ball of the 2022 World Cup. Al Rihla translates as “the journey” in Arabic and it is designed to support the highest game speeds as it travels faster in flight than any FIFA World Cup ball created before it in the tournament’s 92-year history. The new ball features the latest Adidas Suspension System at its core, containing a motion sensor that tracks every touch of the game at a rate of 500 times per second.
2. Record number of visitors
One of the most interesting facts about FIFA 2022 in Qatar is the number of visitors expected to arrive in the country during the event. As expected, the 2022 World Cup Qatar will probably receive a record number of visitors by the time the tournament ends. The reason behind this is simple to understand. Being one of the best countries in the Middle East, Qatar is also located right in the center of the world and close to most of the countries in the world.
3. Stadium is equipped with Centralized Air Conditioning
While the World Cup is nearly impossible to hold during the summer given the fact that temperatures in Qatar can touch 50 degrees Celsius, switching to the winter slot has brought some peace. However, is the problem solved? As far as winter is concerned, even daytime temperatures during winter can be quite high. Therefore, Qatar has found a solution to this. For the first time, the country host the World Cup in an air-conditioned stadium. All eight stadiums are fully air-conditioned, providing fans with a comfortable viewing experience.

28、An injured hiker was rescued earlier this month after a train passenger spotted her from the window. She was crazily waving on the other side of a river, having just spent two days trapped in the wilderness with a broken leg.
The rider told the train crew, who then reported it to the train inspector, Henry Smith, who was in a motor car behind them. Henry was able to stop and communicate with the woman on the opposite bank of the river, which was freezing cold and moving quickly.
The hiker, a woman in her twenties, had been missing for two days. She said she’d intended to go on a day hike, but ended up falling 90 feet down a cliff face while trying to take pictures. She reportedly told rescuers that she lost consciousness for an unknown amount of time. Despite a badly broken leg, she struggled to pull herself to the bank of the river to try to flag down trains. She had no emergency supplies with her, or suitable clothing to spend the night outdoors. There had been a cold attack while the woman was trapped in the wilderness. The hiker described spending daylight hours trying to get the attention of passing trains and, at night, would roll herself into a nearby cliff face in an attempt to stay warm.
Henry called to request help for search and rescue. The operator who received the emergency call said the hiker’s family had been looking for her. While they were waiting for the rescue team, Nick and Kylah, an engineer and a fireman on the next train passing by the location, came to help. 327 passengers on the train waited on the track as they crossed the river to examine the woman’s injuries and bring emergency supplies, blankets and a radio for communication. Eventually, a helicopter was sent to locate and rescue the hiker and she was transported safely to the hospital.

29、The number of weather-related disasters has increased by five times over the past 50 years, the latest report by the World Meteorological (气象) Organization (WMO) said on September 1st. However, thanks to improved early warning systems and disaster management, the number of death from these hazards (危险) has been almost three times less.
According to the WMO, from 1970 to 2019, weather, climate and water hazards accounted for 50 percent of all disasters. Among the top 10 hazards that led to the largest loss of human life during this period were droughts, storms, floods and extreme temperatures. However, deaths fell from over 50,000 in the 1970s to less than 20,000 in the 2010s.
“Weather, climate and water extremes are increasing and will become more frequent and severe in many parts of the world as a result of climate change,” says WMO Secretary-General Petteri Taalas.
“That means more heatwaves, drought and forest fires such as those we have observed recently in Europe and North America. We have more water vapor in the atmosphere, which is worsening extreme rainfall and deadly flooding. The warming of the oceans has affected the frequency and area of existence of the most intense tropical storms. ”
“Economic losses are increasing as exposure increases. But behind the statistics lies a message of hope. Improved multi-hazard early warning systems have led to a significant reduction in deaths. Quite simply, we are better than ever before at saving lives,” Taalas said.
【1】What do we know from the first paragraph?
A．Disasters connected with weather have gone up.
B．The number of weather-related disasters has decreased.
C．The number of deaths from hazards has been increasing.
D．Early warning systems have made disasters decline much.
【2】What will happen according to Petteri Taalas?
A．Water vapor in the atmosphere will go down.
B．Extreme rainfall will no longer exist.
C．There will be more extreme weather.
D．Humans will conquer extreme weather in the end.
【3】What is hopeful behind the bad news?
A．More lives will be saved thanks to early warning systems.
B．Economic losses are going down as exposure increases.
C．Improved warning systems will save economic losses.
D．Improved early warning systems will control extreme weather.

32、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I’d just returned from a beautiful fall early-morning walk with my dog. At the front door, I dug around in my pockets for the keys. When I discovered I didn’t have them, I decided to return to the paths we’d taken. I would surely spot them in plain sight. My little dog ran in circles of excitement that we would do a repeat of our just-finished outing. I spent an hour looking, brushing aside tall grasses, but the keys remained lost. I was beginning to get upset as I thought of the results of losing them, so I continued to look for them but failed.
Back home again, I pulled the backup key from its hiding place, let myself in the house, and fell on the chair in tiredness. The house key wasn’t that important as I had an extra. The mail key was a big deal because getting a new one takes a lot of time. I had a spare car key, but there was often something wrong with it, and the key would be expensive to replace. But the iron heart made by my grandson was precious beyond measure. For some reason, thinking of it being gone forever made tears come to my eyes.
That night, it turned colder and we had a snow. I enjoyed a comfort-food dinner, played soft music, and settled into a peaceful evening until I heard the noise of my car alarm from the garage (车库). I rushed to the car, put the extra key into the door and finally opened it, and then I hurriedly tried my best to stop the alarm. I felt red-faced as I imagined my next-door neighbors being disturbed and annoyed.
I went back in the house but the alarm started again. I turned it off, went back inside, and the alarm sounded again. I repeated the process. Back in the house, I waited, but the next sound was the front doorbell. Thinking it was a neighbor ready to shout at me, I opened the door slowly and turned on the light with apologies ready.
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。
In the light snow stood three neighbors from several streets away.
