More and more consumers are asking how they can keep themselves clean and beautiful withoutIt’s a question Women of the Future winner, Natassia Nicolao, considered during her years working in product development for beauty and wellness companies. Raised by a strong and supportive mother, Natassia used her skills and passion to make a difference. In 2021, she created her waterless beauty brand.She said, “Water is involved in every stage of a product life cycle. Everything we use, buy, sell and make has a huge water footprint. On top of that, the beauty industry adds water as the main ingredients in its products, despite it having no direct benefit to our skin.”Having lived through water restrictions in drought-ridden Australia, Natassia felt it necessary to stop the overuse of water in the beauty industry. Natassia has always loved beauty. Her company tries to be sustainable in every step of the way, but at its core, it is about removing water from our beauty routines.“It’s really rooted in water conservation first, and then managing your water footprint, your carbon footprint and your waste footprint,” Natassia said. “We create waterless beauty products to help conserve water.” The glass bottles and jars of her products can be recycled. The oils and wipes are formulated without any water, requiring no water to use. The company also has a piece of game-changing beauty technology: face-wipes and masks that completely dissolve in water.“The company is still in its beginning,” N atassia said. With the prize money from Women of the Future, she plans to purchase a machine to simplify the creation of the wipes and masks. The publicity, meanwhile, will help her spread the message central to the company’s existence that beauty must do better. Natassia believes that, with a little courage and innovation, it can do.4．What does the underlined word “trashing” in paragraph 1 mean?A. Studying.B. Damaging.C. Exploding.D. Supporting.5．What mainly led to the birth of Natassia’s company?A. Her pursuit of profit.B. Her best beauty skills.C. Her growth environment.D. Her love of extreme beauty.6．Which can best describe the products of Natassia’s company?A. Environmentally friendly.B. Relatively cheap.C. Elegant.D. World-famous.7．How does Natassia feel about the beauty industry?A. It has died out.B. It’s promising.C. It develops well.D. It’s worth analysis.Research shows that forming connections with your coworkers is good for your career and your overall happiness.It's a fact that as you get older, it becomes harder to make friends. It's a natural progression, whether you work in an office or a remote area. As you get older and leave school, you often have more demands for your time and fewer opportunities to get to know those around you."Maintaining friendships takes effort, but it's well worth it, "says CEO and Fast Company contributor Corey Weiner. "Studies show that a friend can make you a better collaborator (合作者) , a more creative and productive worker and generally happier with your job."After all, most of you spend a huge number of your waking hours at work. Of course, it's more fun to have someone to collaborate with and occasionally sympathize with. But how do you go about making genuine connections with coworkers or other like-minded individuals in your industry？It might sound overly simplistic, but a big part of building friendships is just putting yourself out there. "If you're not used to having a lot of friends any more, you may actually need to remind yourself to engage," writes Professor Art Markman."Set time on your calendar for a phone call or make plans to get a cup of coffee.""Don't wait for someone else to make the first move," says Keith Rollag, author of What to Do When You're New." If things go well during an initial coffee or activity, actively follow up to build on that connection.You're not going to immediately bond with all of your coworkers or every person you meet at a networking happy hour. But making continual attempts to find connections with your non-annoying colleagues will eventually pay off. Last but not least, don't call them work husband or work wife in the beginning.8．Why is it harder to make friends when people get older？A.They focus more on other business.B.They have more demands on friends.C.They reject to put many efforts into it.D.They are too old to know other people.9．What do the words of Corey Weiner show？A.The way to make friends.B.The need to do jobs well.C.The importance of the studies.D.The meaning of gaining friendship. 10．What does Keith Rollag attach importance to？A.Keeping in touch with old friends.B.Spending more time drinking coffee.C.The initiative in forming connections.D.The balance between work and life. 11．What is the author's purpose in writing the last paragraph？A.To offer suggestions.B.To explain reasons.C.To draw conclusions.D.To make comments."The majority of decisions we make do not come from the conscious (有意识的) mind, but the subconscious mind, "Beni Gradwohl, the co-founder of Cognovi Labs, said. "Our decisions are based on emotions. People think they are very rational (理智的) . But they are not. In fact, decisions in the subconscious mind are made in a second before the rational mind recognizes that."Gradwohl used to think that cold and hard data defined the world. But when he was exposed to behavioral economics, his world view changed. He said, "Emotional intelligence is more important than intelligence quotient (IQ) . Most successful leaders in the world don't have above-average IQ but above-average emotional quotient (EQ) . "Gradwohl co-founded AI company, Cognovi Labs, to better understand how people make decisions, using data and science and technology to measure underlying emotions.When asked how event organizers could benefit from using emotional AI, Gradwohl said, "The first thing is whether you really understand what's driving your target audience to an event." He added, "You can ask them, but what potential registrants tell you may be incorrect."According to Gradwohl, registering for an event is not an entirely rational decision, and it goes deeper. Understanding how your target audience makes decisions is important because you don't want to sell them something they don't care about. Cognovi Labs' AI can uncover the underlying emotional drivers or blockers of your target audience's decision-making.Beyond using Cognovi Labs' AI in the marketing leading up to an event, once the event is underway, Gradwohl thinks organizers can know how their participants are feeling via the AI. That involves using feedback (反馈) surveys. He said, "Have attendees talk to the eventapp and then transcribe that. We call that diagnostic (诊断的) interview because they may generate a strong emotional response. With those conversations about what they are experiencing throughout the program at different times of the day, we will see what the emotional blockers and drivers are. We can get a full picture of the emotional aspects of the attendees."12．What may Cognovi Labs mainly focus on？A.Researching people's potential emotions.B.Helping people make rational decisions.C.Training people to develop conscious minds.D.Leading people to study science and technology.13．What can we learn from paragraph 5？A.Registering for an event is important.B.Believing target audience is necessary.C.Cognovi Labs' AI helps event organizers.D.Cognovi Labs' AI benefits lots of drivers.14．What does the last paragraph mainly talk about？A.Cognovi Labs' AI's feedback surveys.B.Cognovi Labs' AI's additional function.C.The ways to organize a marketing event.D.The attendees' strong emotional response.15．Which of the following may be the best title for the text？A.The Founder of an Emotional AIB.The Future of Behavioral EconomicsC.An AI Company Improves IntelligenceD.An Emotional AI Helps Make Decisions二、七选五16．The 40th birthday is often treated as a milestone birthday. For men, especially, the birthday may symbolically signify the start of middle age. ① . Give the man turning 40 in your life a gift that he will treasure or one that will make him laugh.Gag (恶作剧) giftsMany 40th birthday parties are roasts. They are meant to be funny. If this is the case and the man has a good sense of humor, consider giving him a gag gift. Wrap up a magazineprinted in large print or set a cane or walker by his chair. ② .Adventure giftsRecapture the man’s feeling of youth by giving him the gift of adventure.③ . For example, if he has always wanted to go paragliding (滑翔伞运动), pay for the lesson, pick him up in the car and don’t give him a chance to back out of it.Something expensiveMost men don’t outgrow their love of expensive toys. Get together with some friends and chip in for a 40th birthday gift he will truly treasure. ④ . Giving him something expensive that he would never purchase for himself is a great way to stave off that middle-age crisis.⑤________Give the man the gift of words. Write a list of 40 things that you love about him and then read it aloud to him while dining on his favorite meal. Alternately, ask everyone in the family to write one admiring thing about him.

The thought of tackling a room redecorating project intimidated me, but I knew that following through on helping my girl create a new space for herself would mean a lot to her. So, I worked up my courage.Together, my daughter and I set a budget for our project, spread paint samples on her wall and calculated how much paint we’d need. And finally deep breath — we started painting. Neither of us had ever painted a room before. After rolling a paint roller across her wall for the first time, my daughter frowned (皱眉) and said, “Maybe we should hire someone to do the painting for us, Mom.”I couldn’t help wondering if she might be right, but I assured her that if we followed the painting pointers we’d studied and took our time, we could do a fine job. I didn’t want her to miss out on the wonderful feeling of competence that comes from trying something you want to do but fear you might not be able to do.There had been many times when we’d realized we had been in the wrong way and had to do it again. We had to problem-solve with whoever might help. Finally, we finished the painting. It was not perfect, but the overall effect made my daughter really happy. It was her ideas and work that made all visible.Thinking about doing such a project with my daughter, it struck me that she got to see me being a rank beginner — messing up and starting over all the way. She watched melooking up answers when I needed them and asking for help when I hit dead ends. Instead of being an authority with all the answers, I learned with her. I showed my daughter what learning looks like, in all its messy glory. That’s definitely the best part I’ll treasure. 4．What does the underlined word “intimidated” in paragraph 1 probably mean?A．Inspired.B．Frightened.C．Reminded.D．Attracted. 5．Why did the author refuse to hire a painter?A．To overcome her fear of failure.B．To keep the project under budget.C．To show her talent for decoration.D．To let the kid enjoy the joy of success. 6．What does the author think is the most rewarding part of this redecoration?A．Being a rank beginner.B．Being a success in decorating.C．Being a model learner.D．Being an authority with all answers. 7．Which of the following best describes the author?A．Reflective.B．Enthusiastic.C．Ambitious.D．Demanding.When scientists and the public worry about sea level rise, they mostly focus on when and where communities will be permanently flooded. But there’s another consequence of rising seas that will affect many more people much sooner: getting cut off from roads and other critical infrastructure (基础设施). It’s a threat that society has not paid nearly enough attention to, says Allison Reilly, a civil engineer at the University of Maryland.In a new paper, Reilly and her colleagues show the width and pace of the isolation (隔离) threat. Inspired by her work on the eastern shore of Maryland, where people already need to adjust their travel and work schedules to account for tides that frequently flood roads, Reilly and her colleagues calculated that, with one meter of sea level rise, twice as many people across the coastal United States will be isolated than will be fully flooded.Worse still, many places currently considered at low risk of sea level rise suddenly become much riskier when isolation is taken into account, Reilly says. While planners know that low-lying Florida will be severely flooded, Maine, with its high rocky coasts, is generally thought to be at low risk. But Reilly’s work shows many Mainers are in great danger of being cut off by flooding in coastal communities and river valleys.This far more immediate effect of rising seas needs to become part of the broader planning process. That kind of planning is starting to happen around the Chignecto Isthmus, an interprovincial land bridge in Canada, connecting New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. TheNew Brunswick and Nova Scotia governments are considering a variety of plans to raise or replace the dikes (坝). For Ollerhead, a Nova Scotian, that work can’t start soon enough. “It will take a lot of sea level rise before Nova Scotia becomes an island, but you could have a storm that cuts off the major transportation links for days, weeks, or months,” he says. “It’s nearly impossible to predict when, but it will happen eventually.”8．What is the threat Allison Reilly mentioned in paragraph 1?A．The rising sea level.B．Flood-related isolation.C．Permanent flooded areas.D．Irreparable infrastructure.9．What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A．Conclusions of a new paper.B．Calculations of collected data.C．Situations of Eastern Maryland.D．Influences on coastal United States. 10．Why are Florida and Maine mentioned in paragraph 3?A．To clarify a point.B．To offer a solution.C．To present an assumption.D．To illustrate a reason.11．What’s Ollerhead’s attitude toward the governments’ planning?A．Dismissive.B．Doubtful.C．Favorable.D．Unclear.We tend to think of large cities as melting pots — places where people from all sorts of backgrounds can mix and interact. But according to new research, people in big cities tend to primarily interact with other individuals in the same socioeconomic bracket (阶层), but people in small cities and rural areas are much more likely to have diverse interactions.The researchers used GPS data collected in 2017 from 9.6 million cellphones across 382 metropolitan (大都市的) areas in the United States to determine how often people of different socioeconomic ranks crossed paths during the day — essentially how many times people had the opportunity to interact, even briefly, with someone in a different income bracket. They collected data on almost 1.6 billion path-crossings.This large amount of extremely precise data allowed the researchers to see what has been missed by similar studies in the past. People living in the 10 most populous metropolitan areas, which include cities like New York City, Los Angeles, and Chicago, along with their surrounding areas, were significantly less likely to interact with people of different socioeconomic ranks than people in metropolitan areas with fewer than 100,000 residents.The good news is that there are ways to build cities to promote more socioeconomicmixing. Looking at large cities, the researchers found that those that placed frequently-visited hubs (中心) in between different neighborhoods — instead of in the center of each neighborhood — were less separated.“These big cities have managed to develop diverse interactions because the hubs that people visit the most — which turn out to be shopping centers, squares, and similar places — are between rich and poor neighborhoods,” said Hamed Nilforoshan, a doctoral researcher at Stanford University. “Those hubs act as bridges, allowing people to see each other and interact.”12．What might be a conclusion of the new research?A．Urban residents interact more.B．Large cities act as melting pots.C．Urbanization leads to different social ranks.D．Big cities showcase socioeconomic separation.13．How was the research carried out?A．By bridging the income brackets.B．By studying the frequency of interaction.C．By comparing residents’ behavior patterns.D．By collecting data on people’s social ranks.14．What should city planners do to promote socioeconomic mixing?A．Position the hubs properly.B．Construct more shopping centers.C．Control the urban expansion.D．Design unique residential neighborhoods. 15．What is the best title for the text?A．Income Bracket: What to Do with It?B．Diverse Interactions Count in Big Cities C．Socioeconomic Separation: How to Fix It?D．Metropolitan Cities Are Great Melting PotsNowadays, the demand on charities is greater than ever. 16 They create simple but great ideas to help people in need, even when their money is tight. Here’s a perfect example.Have you heard of the Ice Bucket (桶) Challenge? The social media initiative started in the United States and spread around the world, raising $115 million for the research on ALS (渐冻症) — a disease which Hawking suffered from. You take a video of yourself dumping (倾倒) a bucket of ice water over your head, and then encourage three more people to do the same. 17Manju Kalanidhi, a journalist in India, thought it was an amazing way to raise awareness of ALS and raise funds for its research. 18 Water is too precious to waste there, even for a good cause. Then in 2014, it hit her: why not make it a Rice Bucket Challenge to fight hunger?“ 19 I shared it on Facebook and said, ‘This is a Rice Bucket Challenge. Why don’t you do it, too?’” Participants donate a bucket of rice to an individual or family — no, it’s not dumped — take a photo and post it on social media with a message encouraging others to do the same. Or people can donate through a website.Manju didn’t have a big army of volunteers, but she did have donations and people who need food. 20 To date, Manju says the Rice Bucket Challenge has raised thousands of dollars and distributed an estimated 35,000 kilograms of rice.A．But it didn’t make sense in her country.B．In such a novel way, she put them together successfully.C．The rate of giving has increased among the wealthiest nations.D．I gave a bucket of rice to someone in need and clicked a photo.E．Luckily, the world never goes short of kind and creative souls.F．This has been making it so easy to motivate people to give back.G．The participant donates $100 if they don’t complete the challenge.二、完形填空When my doctor was delivering his speech on statistics and survival rates, those cruel words upset me terribly.
