21、There are moments when it feels like we're put in the perfect place at just the right time to make a big difference in the world around us. For Flaviane Carvalho, the perfect place on New Year's Day happened to be at work. As she was wrapping up her work, a family of four was seated in her section. She immediately noticed something unusual about their behavior. As the mother of a teenager herself, Flaviane's eyes were drawn to the 11-year-old boy.
The boy was depressed, and his family would not let him have anything to eat or drink. Flaviane asked if everything was all right with their food, and they told her the child would eat at home. Warning bells sounding in her head, Flaviane looked closer. Peeking(偷看)out from underneath the boy's hat, she found cuts, and deep scratches on his face.
Thinking quickly, the server wrote out a simple note and held it up behind the child’s parents so they couldn't see. “Are you OK?” the note asked. At first, the boy just nodded, but Flaviane quickly added another message:“Do you need help?” A small nod told her everything she needed to know. “I'll never forget the feeling I had when I saw that little boy,” Flaviane said. “I just knew something wasn't right! He was scared, and I was scared too.”
Flaviane told her boss what was happening and then called 911. When police arrived, they told Flaviane that she had likely saved at least one life that night. “The lesson here for all of us is to recognize when we see something that isn't right to act on it.... This saved the life of a child.” Orlando Police Chief Orlando Rolon said. “I'm super glad.” she said. “It just warms my heart that now he has a better chance in life.”

22、Drone hobbyists will be required to register their aircraft with the government or face unspecified penalties (处罚), the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced a new law on Monday.
The move is an attempt to prevent drones endangering air safety, as the number of complaints about errant (偏离的) flyers has skyrocketed in recent months, the FAA said.
“We are certainly seeing a significant increase in reports,” Huerta, administrator of the FAA, said. “Clearly, this is an industry that is taking off. And there are a lot of activities taking place in the national airspace system.”
Drones are taking to the skies in groups, and the number of tiny flyers is expected to multiply in the coming years. Amazon and Google aim to use drones to deliver commercial goods in the next decade. Already this year, pilots and others have reported 100 complaints about drones a month, roughly double the rate of complaints in 2021, the FAA said. Many of those complaints are about close calls, in which drones narrowly miss other aircraft.
The FAA bars people from flying drones within 5 miles of an airport, or higher than 400 feet above the ground. But increasingly, drone pilots are breaking those rules. In August, for instance, two airplanes landing at Kennedy International Airport came within 100 feet of a drone flying at a height of roughly 800 feet. When such drones violate (侵犯) airspace, the government currently has no way to locate their operators.
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and the FAA are working out the details, but right now, the new registry wouldn’t require drones to carry trackers. And it wouldn’t institute a policy of “geofencing”, which involves creating marked-off safe spaces where drones would automatically be deactivated.
“Unless a drone crashes, it could be difficult to identify tiny flyers from sight alone. But our biggest challenge so far has not been identifying the drone itself. It’s been connecting it back to the person who’s using it,” said Foxx, secretary of the TSA.
【1】Why did the FAA announce the law?
A．To promote drones’ business services.
B．To regulate drones for airspace security.
C．To adjust the flight direction of errant drones.
D．To charge people for personal use of airspace.
【2】What does the underlined word “bars” in paragraph 5 mean?
A．Frees.
B．Saves.
C．Distracts.
D．Prohibits.
【3】What is the major problem that the TSA faces concerning drones?
A．Building safe drone airspace.
B．Tracking down the drone pilots.
C．Publicizing current flight rules.
D．Planting trackers on the drones.
【4】What can be the best title for the text?
A．Drones Will Get People in Trouble
B．America Is Expanding Drone Industry
C．Complaints About Drones Continue to Pour in
D．Flying Unregistered Drones Will Be Illegal in the US
23、Most artists have a favorite material they like to work with．For 28-year-old Kristen Alice, it happens to be garbage．The eco-friendly designer uses her incredible talent to transform garbage like empty drink bottles and candy wrappers into charming dresses that sell for thousands of dollars．
Kristen says the idea came to her after she saw how much vaster she and her three college roommates generated on a daily basis．The Fine Arts student began to dream about transforming the deserted bags and packages into beautiful garments．
Her first dress’ made from plastic bags and rolled magazines was strange, fun and even charming．However, she only made it to test her creativity．
The young designer did not consider starting a commercial venture（企业）until she spent a week working at Couture Fashion Week in New York City．There she observed the excitement generated by new and vintage（复古的）looks and decided to see if her unusual idea would result in as much enthusiasm．She began by creating a line of 12 garbage-inspired dresses．They were a huge success．
Today her company that has offices in Palm Beach, Florida and New York City, produces a wide variety of dresses ranging from cocktail dresses to ball gowns （礼服）．Kristen, of course, doesn't search garbage cans for her material anymore．Instead, she seeks it from companies that have produced more than they need and are planning to throw away the extras．
However, if you think the garbage-inspired dresses come cheap, think again．The price for ready-made creations retails（零售）from $500 to $1,500．Though that may appear expensive, the designer says she has no shortage of customers．In fact she now even has garbage-inspired clothing for men that includes jackets, ties, trousers and even board shorts! While most of the clothes are strong enough to resist multiple wears, whether they can be cleaned is a little unclear:
【1】What made Kristen think of using trash as her favorite material?
A．Her poor living conditions at college．
B．The education from her parents not to waste anything useful．
C．Her roommates' advice of using garbage to replace ordinary material．
D．Her consciousness of environmental protection and trained eyes．

A．she just wanted to test her creativity．
B．she was inspired by the enthusiasm caused by new and vintage dresses．
C．she was driven by the huge profits brought by new fashion．
D．she found there were no unique-looking but affordable clothes in New York．

C．what clothing Kristen mainly designed
D．where Kristen got garbage for her clothing
【4】What is the best title of the passage?

24、“When I was 14, I'd pick my younger brother up from school," Jen says. "I'd be in charge of checking his homework and making sure that he was fed until our parents got home. " That is one of the things that led Jen, a Stanford Graduate School of Business student, to become interested in how people's perception of their own age can influence their actions.
That curiosity led her to team up with Szu-chi Huang, an associate professor at Stanford, on a series of experiments in which they shifted participants' perception of their own age in order to study the effects on their willingness to help strangers in need.
In one study, researchers set up a stand at a sports event and invited passers-by to write thank-you cards to people they knew. In the process, the researchers shifted participants' subjective age by informing them about the average age of others who had participated in the event. In another, they organized a food-bank donation drive at local farmers' markets. In some instances, they asked teenage volunteers to collect the money, a trick to make participants feel older. In other instances, the volunteers were in their 50s.
The researchers found that when participants perceived themselves as older, they were more willing to do things for others with whom they didn't have a personal connection. “We found that when people are led to feel older, they feel more responsibility," Huang says. "It's like the society is on our shoulders. We feel like we're expected to make this world better for the next generation. w
Organizations involved in social causes might take advantage of the new insights about subjective age to make their recruiting （征募）and fundraising efforts more efficient. "If you want to create an older subjective age among the audience you're trying to reach, recruiting younger volunteers might help," Huang says.
【1】Where does Jen's inspiration of the research topic come?

B．From her schoolmates.
C．From her business career.
D．From her early experience.
【2】Why are volunteers in their 50s involved in the donation drive?
A．To attract people's sympathy.
B．To make donors feel younger.

【3】What may happen when people feel they are older than the volunteers?
A．They shoulder more responsibility.
B．They build stronger connections with others.
C．They have a better understanding of the world.
D．They feel more hopeful about the next generation.
【4】What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A．The outcome of the study.
B．The benefit of social causes.
C．The practical value of the study.
D．The importance of subjective age.
