For Glenda Andrew, the smells bring back memories of family meals, community events and religious get-togethers. She brings the hot meals for free to people in an area called Preston, as well as surrounding communities in northwestern England. The area has recorded some of the highest numbers of coronavirus cases in Britain.She uses the best food she can find. Theyre worth it, she said. Theyve taught us so many things when we firstly moved here. In addition to food, the volunteers offer a bit of human contact.The loneliness of the past year has been painful for many of the seniors. When the hot meals arrive, they get to talk with the volunteers and share stories. Sylius Toussaint is 81 and came from the island nation of Dominica in 1960, who said talking with the volunteers helps him as much as the food does.They say hello and give you a meal, and maybe for just a few seconds at least you see someone new; someone you havent seen all week, Toussaint says, smiling at his wife. If you are on your own, it is so nice to see a fresh face especially bringing gifts.Britains COVID-19 vaccination program may soon mean the quarantine will be eased. But Andrew wants to keep making and sharing her island meals. In the future, she said, she hopes to find a place where the community can meet and spend time together. But for now, the volunteers plan to continue to connect with the community through food.24. Why does Glenda Andrew provide free meals for people in that area?A.

Masuda, one of beer lovers, said he is paying more attention to his health now that he is older.Asahi is a large beverage company in Japan, which made 20 percent more money from low-alcohol beer in 2020 compared to the year before. Kirin is another company that makes things to drink. It saw sales grow by 10 percent last year and expects another increase this year.The increase in sales of non-alcoholic beer might be the result of many Japanese people spending more time at home. In the past, they would order beers together while going out. More people are trying to stay healthy as well. Also, fewer people are drinking beer, as wine and other alcoholic drinks become more popular. But the new interest in low-alcohol beer has helped the beverage industry in Japan.In recent years, many companies started making non-alcoholic beers. They caught on in places like Australia and Germany but not in Japan until this year.The chief of Suntory, another large beverage company in Japan, said people only responded to non-alcoholic beer advertising when the product started to taste better. Many people agree that todays non-alcoholic beers taste better than they used to. Asahis Beery has very little alcohol. But it is supposed to have more taste than earlier versions of low-alcohol beer because of a new way of removing the alcohol. The company plans to offer more low-alcohol beers in coming years.Kazuo Matsuyama is marketing chief for Asahi, who said most beer companies used to advertise to people who had a drink every day. That was about 20 million people. But there are about 80 million people in Japan between the ages of 20 and 60. But now we need to look at others. Matsuyama said.28. Why do some Japanese workers turn to beers free of alcohol nowadays?A. To appreciate a tasty flavor. B. To ensure a healthier lifestyle.C. To get rid of liver cancer. D. To relieve stress in their life.29. Whats the authors statement on beverage companies excellent sales in 2020 based on?A. Beverage company traditions. B. Financial reports.C. Published statistics.D. Public opinions.30. Whats Australians attitude to non-alcoholic beers?A. Enthusiastic. B. Indifferent. C. Critical. D. Objective.31. Whats the text mainly about?A. New lifestyles in Japan.B. The development of Asahi.C. Introductions of different beers.D. Popularity of alcohol free beers.DScientists say baby sharks are at risk of being born smaller and without the energy they need to survive because of warming oceans from climate change. Scientists studied epaulette sharks, which live off Australia and New Guinea. They found warmer conditions sped up the sharks growing process, which meant the sharks were born earlier.John Mandelman, chief scientist of the Anderson Cabot Center for Ocean Life said the findings could be used in the study of other sharks. Mandelman said it is widely believed that epaulette sharks are hardy, or able to survive difficult conditions. What it means is that this species is more vulnerable than we thought, and this could be true of other sharks, he added.The scientists studied 27 sharks using the New England Aquariums reproduction program. Some were raised in average summer water temperatures. Others were raised in higher temperatures. They found the sharks raised in warmer temperatures weighed much less than those raised in average temperatures. One study this year found that worldwide numbers of oceanic sharks and rays dropped more than 70 percent between 1970 and 2018. Overfishing is a main concern, while climate change and pollution also threaten sharks.Carolyn Wheeler, a doctoral student at the University of Massachusetts Boston and the author of the epaulette shark study, said while all the sharks survived, those raised in warmer temperatures were not strong enough to survive for long in the wild. She added that if the sharks are born smaller than usual they are probably going to have to start looking for food sooner and theyre going to have less time to adjust to their surroundings.Mariah Pfleger, an ocean scientist said the study should serve as a warning to ocean governing agencies that careful supervision is needed to prevent the loss of more sharks. This study further shows that sharks will not be immune to a warming ocean, Pfleger added.32. What does the author want to tell us in paragraph1?A. Oceans get warmer because of climate change.B. Climate change affects sharks growing process.C. New finding on short life span of sharks is released.D. Sharks are at risk of dying out.33. What do we know about epaulette sharks?A. They are sensitive to climate change.B. They can survive any difficult situation.C. Climate change has little effect on them.D. The situation is serious even for them.34. What can be inferred according to Mariah Pfleger?A. Overfishing and ocean pollution should be stopped.B. Sharks have to adjust themselves to warmer surroundings.C. Measures should be taken to prevent climate change. D. The number of sharks will continue dropping. 35. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Baby Sharks Struggle to Survive in Warming OceanB. Whether Sharks Can Survive or Not Is a Question C. Climate Change Threatens Marine Organisms D. The Premature Sharks Are Faced With Challenges 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项.Tiny homes are being used for housing in costly areas of the United States. In Los Angeles, California, tiny homes are now being used as temporary shelters for people, serving as a welfare for citizens. 36 Similar projects went up in other California cities, including San Jose and Sacramento, and also across the United States in Seattle, Washington; Minneapolis, Minnesota; and Des Moines, Iowa. 37 That number is an increase of more than 12 percent from a year earlier. Over 150,000 people are homeless across the state of California. The pandemic has forced even more people onto the streets. Homeless shelters had to turn away people to maintain social distancing rules. Thus, its urgent for officials to find a way out. City officials selected the land on Chandler Street for the tiny home village，because it could not be used for anything else. 38 The officials had to promise nearby neighbors that the village would be safe and clean. Ken Craft is head of the non-profit Hope of the Valley which operates Chandler Street village. He asked worried neighbors if they would rather have the tents or the tiny homes on the land. He said the village offers services that can help peo
