We couldnt pick one, either. But here are some words and phrases that we think capture what it felt like to be alive in 20xx. a Blursday The passage of time itself became seemingly unreliable this year, as some days fell like a week while some months flew by in an instant.

ASocial distancing As experts learned more about the spread of the virus, 6 feet became the golden number： the distance we should stay away from others to prevent the spread of COVID-19, yes, but also a shorthand for how to navigate socialization in the new world.

B In the first days of my honeymoon, I travelled to Vasto, a small town with its beautiful landscape in central Italy, to retrace the same steps my great-grandmother Filomena walked after her own wedding, almost 100 years earlier. Vasto wasnt on my radar in the early stages of planning my honeymoon, but when learning that it wasnt far from the month-long route, I considered a visit. How could I be so close and not see where Filomena came from? Anyway, Id been so busy planning my own wedding that I didnt have much time to think about what it meant to be married. As I was trying to figure out what a new family might look like, it also made sense to turn to the past. The story of my family I knew started when Filomena set foot in New York by ship in 1922. But after I travelled to Vasto where she grew up, the starting point of her story shifted. I began to consider Filomena as a young, adventurous woman planning a new life far from home. Her husband, Domenico, had already gone ahead to work there. She had no other family in the US, and yet she was prepared to get on a boat in Naples and sail into the unknown. Her willingness to see what could remind me of marriage： you dont have to know whats coining next, you just need to want to go. Then we visited (he edge of a valley near Filomenas house. In 1956, part of the world Filomena grew up in almost disappeared during a landslide. When she returned for visits later in life, she saw a landscape different from what she had remembered. Even the things wc expect to be permanent arent always so. A few days spent walking in Filomenas footsteps, knowing all the unexpected turns that life threw at her over five decades of marriage, I realized that you can never plan for lifes uncertainties or crave an outline for the future. If that kind of anxiety somehow creeps back in, Ill think of Filomena on the deck of a steam ship, uncertain, but moving forward anyway. Why did the author go to Vasto during her honeymoon? To find out what (he lifestyle was like there. To explore the true meaning of marriage To reunite with her great-grandmother there To enjoy the scenic beauty of Italy What did the author find about her great-grandmother? She never expected a life abroad. She felt scared of the marriage She dared to challenge a new life ahead. She knew well what her future was like What inspiration did the changed landscape bring to the author? Humans need to protect the nature. The power of nature is hard to control. Things always go smoothly as expected. Life is always full of uncertainties. How will the author react to the misfortunes in her life after the visit to Vasto? Check the situation and make plans for it Follow Filomenas footsteps and keep going. Predict how things will go and avoid the bad. Evaluate the uncertainties and change them. C China launched a large robotic spacecraft on Nov. 24, 20xx at (he Wenchang Space Launch Center in South Chinas Hainan province, tasking it with landing on the moon and bringing back lunar samples, 44 years after the last time such substances were brought back to Earth. If everything proceeds smoothly, about 2 kilograms of stones and soil will be collected and packed in a vacuum metal container. The entire mission is scheduled to last about 23 days, according to the China National Space Administration. Considering these highly sohisticatcd operations, Change 5 will be more difficult and challenging than previous Chinese lunar expeditions, designers have said According to a statement published by the space administration, the Change 5 mission is intended to fulfill several objectives. In terms of space engineering, it will demonstrate technical plans and apparatus for autonomous lunar sampling and packing and moon-based launching, as well as lunar orbital docking. In the scientific field, it will investigate the landing sites features, and enable scientists to analyze the lunar samples structure and physical traits so (hey can deepen their research into lhe moons origin and evolution.

On a long, slow train rattling north, with nothing to do but watch the rain, the guy sitting opposite began trying to talk to me. Like most young women who have learned the hard way to be cautious of strangers, I reacted coldly. But curiosity took over when he said that he was just bored, and liked talking. So thats what we did, for hours and hours, since he turned out to be very talkative. When the train eventually pulled in, we didnt swap numbersit was a conversation strictly of its timebut I still think about it occasionally on long, boring journeys, before getting a phone out and scrolling silently like everyone else. Rarely can a person cheerfully break the social taboo 禁忌about talking to strangers without any trace of ill intention but life would be more interesting if more of us knew how to do it. And thats why I feel it ridiculous about a campaign launched this week to heal bitter national divides by encouraging Britons to talk to each other. Obviously, i takes more than a small talk over garden fences to unite a divided nation now. More people live alone than they did a generation ago, and we socialise increasingly through screens instead of bothering to call. In reality? social media platforms designed to bring people together have unknowingly fueled the division. It is true that the44 tube chat campaign of a few years back failed in its attempt to make Londoners talk to each other on public transport. But even city residents who would normally die rather than make eye contact with strangers still happily join the large crowds of people by the Thames for the New Years Eve fireworks. They would gel a far belter view at home on TVits not really about the fireworks? but being part of social engagement. Theres no guarantee that this latest attempt to reconnect will succeed, but 1 hope that my temporary train friend then is still talking, wherever he is now. What led the author to start the talk with the guy on the train? Her growing interest in communication. Her typical easygoing personality Her habit of chatting with strangers. The intention of the train journey. What has made talking to strangers a social taboo among the Britons? A lack of basic communicating skills. The absence of common topics. The concern for personal safety. The addiction to social media How does technology affect peoples mutual connection? It is bringing people together in a larger sense. It is positively helping break the national boundaries. It has made people more divided than connected. It is the key driving force of removing divisions . What does the highly-attended firework show indicate? Tube chat campaign can never make it. TV programs al home are not appealing. The charm of the fireworks is hard to resist. Peoples desire to connect is still alive. 第二节共5小题；每题2.5分,满分12.5分 依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂 黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 We all do it. We put off that annoying task for five more minutes, then for thirty minutes, then fbr hours, until it doesnt get done at all. 16 We spend so much time stressing over the unfinished task. Caught up in the cycle of procrastination 拖延，we almost forget how to effectively tackle hard tasks. However, there is something you can do o nip procrastination in the bud and take back control over your daily life. 17 We only have a limited supply of willpower.
