9、oved to the United States from India in February 2017. Having previously volunteered for two years as an assistant yoga teacher in her home country, Kajal was enthusiastic about volunteering and began looking for volunteer opportunities that match her interests. She was drawn to a volunteer opportun
10、ity to review applications on behalf of the Young Leaders of the Americas Initiative (YLAI), which aims to help Latin American and Caribbean business to bring positive changes to their societies and contribute more fully to economic development, prosperity and security in those places.After connecti
11、ng with the opportunity and successfully completing the application process, Kajal got to work. Her role involved reviewing 44 in-depth applications from potential candidates across Latin America and the Caribbean for a four-week fellowship in the U.S. She was responsible for describing the business
12、 ideas presented by these candidates, assessing the social impact of their businesses, and determining the strength of candidates to carry out their plans. With almost 4,000 applicants in 2017, volunteers like Kajal were important members of the YLAI team.Kajal says that this volunteer opportunity s
13、uper-charged her existing skills, while helping her build new ones such as time management, business analysis, decision-making, planning, and presenting.She is now looking for her next volunteer opportunity and reflects positively on her experience with YLAI. “A new country brings in a lot of new ex
14、periences and volunteering helped me to settle into a new environment,” adds Kajal. “By helping others, I felt needed in society. It promoted my confidence, and other people benefited too. Volunteering is a great opportunity to improve yourself, others, and the whole society.”Whether you recently mo
15、ved to a new place or are looking to expand your influence on your current community, find a volunteer opportunity to empower yourself, and others.4. What do we know about Kajal?A.

What is the purpose of this text?A. To share experience of volunteering.B. To recognize the contribution of YLAI.C. To suggest a way to se
18、ttle into a new place.D. To evaluate the benefits of volunteering abroad.CFor most business speakers, the necessary stage time, structure, and conscious editing to bring about maximum effect just arent there most people dont have to speak often enough to get it. Conversely, the speakers who deliver
19、their talk most tend to be the best and most polished. They know where the laugh lines are, they know what phrasing works best, and they know their timing. Just like standup comedians.Standup comedy, at its basic principles, is a combination of material (what you say) and delivery (how you say it).
20、It is no different than typical speeches or presentations. TV slots (节目时间) for new comedians tend to be under five minutes, which forces them to continuously refine and refine again in order to achieve maximum effect from each word. Conference organizers still tend to book speakers in 40-60 minute t
21、ime slots but who, these days, has an hour to focus on one person? Some of the best speeches in history have clocked in at less than 20 minutes. Abraham Lincolns Gettysburg Address was 272 words and lasted two minutes. Winston Churchills “Blood, Toil, Tears and Sweat” speech was 688 words. The most
22、powerful emotional expression two humans can say to each other isjust three words: “I,” “love,” and “care.”Most people switch off at around the ten-minute mark. As mentioned in Brain Rules, studies by noted educator Wilbert McKeachie demonstrate that “typically, attention increases from the beginnin
23、g of the lecture to ten minutes into the lecture and decreases after that point.” This is why the organization for online talk TED has shortened its earlier 18-minute format. They figured out that brevity is levity. However, many conference and event producers havent got it right. Most speakers cant
24、 hold the attention of an audience for 40-60 minutes. Its something even the best standup comedians battle with. Yet business speakers seldom ask for a shorter slot. They should.8. What pushes new standup comedians to improve their presentations?A. The limited given time.B. The topic of their speech
25、es.C. The audiences expectation.D. The place of their performance.9. Why does the author mention the best speeches in history in Paragraph 3?A. To expand the influence of the two speeches.B. To prove that powerful speeches can be brief.C. To illustrate the power of emotional expressions.D. To show h
26、ow famous people shortened speeches.10. Why did TED reset a time limit?A. The organizers cant book long TV slots.B. The audience cannot focus for a long time.C. The access to online speeches was limited.D. The speakers tend to deliver short speeches.11. What are business speakers advised to do?A. To
27、 cut down their speech time.B. To interact more with the audience.C. To pay more attention to the contents.D. To battle against the standup comedians.DSocial distancing is not a new concept in the natural world, where infectious diseases are commonplace. Through specialized senses animals can detect
28、 certain diseases and change their behavior to avoid getting ill.In 1966, while studying chimps (猩猩) in a Tanzanian national park, zoologist Jane Goodall observed a chimp named McGregor who had caught a highly infectious virus. His fellow chimps attacked him and threw him out of the troop. In one in
29、stance, McGregor approached chimps in a tree. He reached out a hand in greeting, but the others moved away without a backward glance.“For a full two minutes, old McGregor sat motionless, staring after them,” Goodall notes in her 1971 book In the Shadow of Man. “Its really not that different to how s
30、ome societies react today to such a tragedy.”Not all animals are so aggressive toward their ailing neighbors. Sometimes its as simple as avoiding those who may infect you.When Kiesecker, a lead scientist in America, studied American bullfrog in the late 1990s, he found that bullfrogs could not only
31、detect a deadly smell of infection in other bullfrogs, but healthy members actively avoided those that were sick. Bullfrogs rely on chemicals signals to determine who is sick or not.Caribbean lobsters also shun diseased members of their community, well before they become infectious. It takes about e
32、ight weeks for lobsters infected with the deadly virus Panulirus argus mininuceovirus to become dangerous to others. Normally social animals, lobsters begin keeping away from the diseased as early as four weeks after infection once the lobsters can smell certain chemicals released by sick individual
33、s.Overall, its important to note that, unlike us, animals dont realize if they stay home, they might actually reduce the infection rate,” Kiesecker explains. “As humans, we have that ability. Its a big difference.”12. What can we learn about the chimps from Goodalls observation?A. They kept a distan
34、ce from one another.B. They became aggressive when infected.C. The infected avoided contact with others.D. The infected were forced to leave the group.13. What does the underlined word “shun” in Paragraph 6 probably mean?A. Avoid.B. Cure.C. Get rid of.D. Get along with.14. How are humans different f
35、rom animals according to Kiesecker?A. Humans are more sensitive to virus.B. Humans are less likely to get infected.C. Humans treat infectious diseases in a wiser way.D. Humans can detect chemical signals more quickly.15. Which might be the best title for the text?A. Help Me OutB. Leave Me AloneC. St
36、ay Away From UsD. Stay Home Stay Healthy第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分, 满分 12.5 分）阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Most people dont change. They just become more the way they already are. While there are exceptions, most people find change difficult for several reasons. 16 Few people have an accurat
37、e view of who they are and therefore dont recognize the aspects of themselves that need improvement. Most people want to believe theyre well-balanced and even outstanding in many ways. 17 Then there is the human tendency to explain ones difficulties, short-comings and failures by blaming somebody el
38、se. You may find many people around you blame their poor performance on others. 18 You will probably never hear anyone tell you, “I got fired because I was doing a terrible job.” Few people are willing to accept that their own character traits (弱点) and choices are the main causes of the kind of life
39、 they lead.Finally, most people find it too challenging to change as it involves a lot of hard workand difficult choices. Even when you have learned enough about your true nature, you then need to do something about it. 19 Meanwhile, the reality can be really discouraging: you do much hard work but
40、the results are never the sort of ideal change youre looking for.No matter how difficult it is, you still need to find your own way to change. 20 Real change begins with the recognition of these ways in which you have remained the same and made the same unfortunate choices your entire life.A. And yo
41、u need to do that over and over again.B. However, you have little choice but to change.C. They dont know themselves very well, to begin with.D. They all want to think of themselves as special and gifted.E. At first, they dont think change can bring about encouraging results.F. You can review the pas
42、t and make a list of the ways in which you havent changed.G. They are likely to paint themselves as victims but never recognize their own problems.第二部分 语言运用（共两节, 满分 30 分）第一节（共 15 小题；每小题 1 分, 满分 15 分）阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空格处的最佳选项。Theres a lot that can be conveyed in a handshake. Throughou
43、t history, such a(n) 21 was used to complete a business deal, 22 friendship, or signal trust.But touching strangers can also lead to other, less beneficial shared 23 like disease outbreaks. As fears about COVID-19 increase, France has warned its citizens to 24 handshakes. However, with histories dat
44、ing back thousands of years, the greeting is likely too 25 established to be so easily stopped.A popular theory about the handshakes 26 is that it began as a gesture of 27 . Grasping hands proved you were not holding a weapon and 28 them was a way to ensure your partner had nothing hiding up their s
45、leeve.There may be a 29 explanation for its lasting power. In a 2015 study, researchers in Israel filmed handshakes between hundreds of strangers and found nearly a quarter of participants 30 their hands unconsciously afterwards. 31 , they concluded that a handshake may be used to detect chemical si
46、gnals, and possibly as a means of 32 just as other animals do by smelling each other.Behavioral scientist Val Curtis in London says that one possible 33 for the handshake as greeting is to imply that the other person is 34 enough to share germs (细菌) with.
