A volunteering or gap year tripSafe, Supported Volunteering and Gap Year Trips for First﹣Time TravelersA volunteering or gap year tip is a great opportunity to explore other countries, to help make a difference, and to further a future career． Frontier aims to provide an authentic volunteering experience in many of the world's most spectacular countries, while making sure that safety, support and accountability are of primary importance． With more than 20 years' experience in running and supporting volunteering projects worldwide, and with dedicated teams of staff in the UK and the USA, we are able to provide peace of mind for volunteers and their parents, as well as unforgettable experiences．How does Frontier support its volunteers and their families? We take the safety and security of our volunteers extremely seriously． With this in mind, here are just a few of the policies we follow:●All field staff trained in health &safety procedures●We offer a 24﹣hour, 7﹣day﹣a﹣week, emergency phone line●Weekly "Situation Report" emails for Frontier group projects, to keep friends and families of volunteers informed of news and developments on our camps．●Before accepting a volunteer onto a placement, we require them to undergo an interview with one of our travel advisers, to ensure that the volunteer understands the project, and is comfortable with all of the responsibilities required．Travel BuddiesVolunteers often feel more confident （and their parents more reassured） when travelling with someone from their own country and/or of their own age． If requested, we will find a placement on which there are volunteers of similar ages and backgrounds． Ifboth parties wish, we can put them in contact with each other so that they can gel to know each other before leaving, and even arrange to fly out together．（1）What is special about Frontier？________A It attaches great importance to volunteer' safety．B It has well trained and dedicated staff worldwide．C It provides volunteering experience in most countries．D It provides peaceful and unforgettable experiences．．（2）If parents want to track their children， they can________．A ask their travel companionsB make emergency phone callsC check "Situation Report" emailsD contact field staff or travel advisers．（3）What type of writing is this text？________A An announcement．B An advertisement．C An exhibition guide．D A travel brochure．2. Last year, I went WWOOFing （Willing Workers on Organic Farms） at a beautifulorganic farm in the south of La Reunion． With WWOOFing, volunteers exchange their time and work for food and board． I slept in a cabin in the woods with hedgehogs（刺猬）digging about in the bushes, all different coloured birds singing in the morning and endless rows of palm trees offering shade from the sun．For me, one of the best ways to get to know a new place is to work with the land, live with the locals and share meals together． It has got to be one of the best ways to travel． It is a mutually beneficial exchange where everyone involved ________ people and our planet above profit． You get the time and space to deepen a connection with local communities and nature．There is a lot to learn and each farm has is own unique way of doing thing, depending on the environment , climate and soil． At the farm in La Réunion we planted palm tees to harvest the core of the trunk which can be eaten in salads． Before saying with the farm Ihad only eaten heat of palm from cans which were nothing in comparison to the realthing, fresh from the ground． When potting up the very beginnings of the palm trees, I felt grateful to be a part of the start of the trees' cycle． I was filled with awe that something so small could grow into something so big and strong．Of course, not everyone is able to travel far afield, due to various restrictions or responsibilities back home． The great thing about the skill﹣share philosophy behind WWOOFing, which prioritizes people above profit, is that it's something we can all do from our own backyard． That can be swapping French lessons with a neighbour for babysitting, or cooking a meal in exchange for a yoga class． The focus shifts from money to how we can best support each other in our communities． A fair exchange can make a big difference in the world．（1）The author loves WWOOFing mainly because________．A he can get to know new places and peopleB it is one of the best ways totravel C he can make profits at the beautiful organic farm D he can connect with local communities and nature．（2）What does the underlined word "prioritizes" in Paragraph 2 mean？________A Take something more seriously．B Treat something morecarefully． C Consider something more important． D Take something for granted．．（3）Why does the author mention "palm trees" again in Paragraph 3？________A To show that he learns a lot by volunteering on the farm．B To introduce the growing process of palm trees．C To express his interest in growing plants on the farm．D To show his amazement at the growth of palm lees．．（4）What can we infer from the last paragraph？________A We should exchange what we have with our neighbors．B We can save money by sapping labor with our neighbors．C We can benefit each other by exchanging our time and work．D We should volunteer to work on a farm to experience nature．3. Running or walking after dark, backpacking in an unfamiliar city, even taking a taxi alone in the middle of the night, can all be dangerous activities, especially for women． Tooffer better protection, some technology companies are looking for a way to develop or expand tools that highlight women's safety．In Beijing, on Jan 10, China's smart jewelry brand Totwoo launched a kit calledSafely, which is expected to prevent attack on women in the country．If the user feels threatened pressing the button for four seconds will activate the device that will start recording for 10 seconds． Within 50 seconds, the device will telephone and send text messages to three emergency contacts to inform them, providing a location, first ﹣aid information and audio recordings． Once a contact responds, the device shakes and lights up to inform the user． The user can disable the alarm by pressing the button three times in succession（连续）．Around the diameter of a bottle cap, the waterproof piece of jewelry can be attached to a bag, a key or even worn as a necklace． "In Chinese culture, certain jewelry is sometimes worn as a symbol of safety． Our product brings some truth to that, " says Wang Jieming, who founded Totwoo in 2015． It makes sense that the company decided to model the jewelry in the shape of an apple, the name of which in Chinese is "pingguo", sharing the same pronounced ping as "ping'an", the Chinese word for "safety"．Cooperating with China Mobile , the small core module uses a remote SIM, by passing the need for a physical SIM card． It has certified wireless﹣charging technology similar to the system used by Apple． Supporting navigation systems such as GPS, Beidou and GSM base station positioning, it can provide accurate location information．Xin Yang, head of he International Security Defense College in Beijing, a private security training school established in 2011, says an independent device can enhance women's safety in an emergency, because "mobile phones are often the first item an attacker will attempt to grab or destroy"．The market for safety wearables, while not a new one, is growing． Whether it's a watch, pendant（吊坠） or ring, the chances are that potentially dangerous situations can be avoided or eased with the quick press of a button．（1）Which of the following is right about the device？________A The user can make video and audio recordings with the device．B The device can be switched on and off within minutes．C The user can confirm a contact's response without text messages．D The device is technically supported by big companies such as Apple．．（2）What is the advantage of a smart jewelry over other devices according to Xin Yang？________A It's easy to carry and operate．B It looks beautiful on women．C It symbolizes safely in Chinese culture．D Ii avoids being targeted by an attacker．．（3）What is the author's attitude towards the future of the device？________A Doubtful．B Favorable．C Uncertain．D Objective．．（4）What is the text mainly about？________A Women can be fashionable and safe．B A smart jewelry promotes women'ssafety． C Women's safety raises widespread concern． D Technology companies find a new way to save women．4. "There's no place like home．" This English saying has much truth in it: the best place to be is surrounded by our treasured possessions and our loved ones and with a roof over our head． And for many young adults, it's the only affordable place to stay; some place where they can receive first﹣class service from mum and dad． But this comes at a price! In some countries, it's quite traditional for people in their late teens and early 20s to live at home with heir parents, but in other places, flying away the nest to start their own independent life is very desirable． But there's been a growing trend, in the UK at least, for young people to return home to live﹣﹣or not to leave home at all．According to the UK's Office for National Statistics , about a quarter of young adults aged 20﹣34 live at home, and that figure has been growing． A survey by a price comparison website found that 18% of adult children in the UK said they were moving back home because of debt, compared with 8% last year． More young people had lost their jobs, and others couldn't afford their rent compared with the previous year． So, it's easy to see why they're increasingly becoming home birds．The BBC's Lucy Hooker explains that many returning adult children enjoy home comforts． These include cooked meals, a full fridge and cleaning, as well as their bills being covered by what is commonly called "the hotel of mum and dad"． But for the "hoteliers", that's mum and dad, the survey found the average cost to them has gone up sharply, and that they are sacrificing luxuries and holidays to look after their "big kids"． Emma Craig from Moneysupermarket says "they're trying to look after their children more． If your child comes home and you see them struggling financially, you feel more awkward asking them for rent or to contribute．"With parents splashing out（花销）around ₤1, 886 on takeaway food, buying new furniture and upgrading their Wi﹣Fi for the benefit of their children, it's easy for the returning children to put their feet up and make themselves at home． That's before they learn a home truth﹣that one day it might be their own kids who'll be checking into the hotel of mum and dad!（1）Which of the flowing statements is true according to the text？________A The main reason for their moving back home lies in parent' service．B Different countries have different traditions．C More and more young people live with parents in the UK．D Young people desire to live independently in all countries．．（2）Why do more young people choose to stay at home？________A They are struggling financially．B They want to keep their parents company．C They can't afford to buy their own house．D They want to enjoy home comforts．．（3）What influence does the trend have on parents？________A They have difficulty making ends meet．B They feel happy with their children around．C They feel awkward asking their children for rent．D They give up their own life to take care of their kids．．（4）What is the best title for the text？________A A new trend in the UK．B The hotel of mum and dad．C There's no place like home．D Everything comes at a price．第二节（共1小题；每小题10分，满分I0分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出储填人空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．5. Asymptomatic infections （无症状感染） of the COVID﹣19 can be hard to track and chances of such virus carriers spreading the virus are simply equal．（1）_______Therefore，to protect yourself from those potential infections， you need some basic protective measures to take care of your health and the others' as well．Wash your hands frequently．Cleaning your bands regularly and thoroughly with an alcohol﹣based hand rub or washing them with soap and water can help kill viruses that may be on your hands．Maintain social distancing．Maintain at least 1 metre （3 feet） distance between yourself and anyone who is coughingor sneezing．（2）_______Being too close， you expose yourself to the risk of breathing in the droplets，including the COVID﹣19 virus．（3）_______Hands touch many surfaces and can pick up viruses． Once contaminated （弄脏），hands can transfer the virus to your eyes， nose or mouth．（4）_______Seek medical care early if you have fever， cough and difficulty breathing．If you have a fever， cough and difficulty breathing， seek medical attention and call in advance． Follow the directions of your local health authority who may have the most up to date information on the situation in your area． Calling in advance will allow your health care provider to quickly direct you to the right health facility．（5）_______A． This will also protect you and help prevent spread of viruses and other infections．B． Avoid touching eyes， nose and mouth．C． Thus， the goal of preventing the possible spread of COVID﹣19 can be easily achieved．D． From there， the virus can enter your body and can make you sick．E． Cover your mouth and nose with your bent elbow or tissue when you cough or sneeze．F． Many people who are infected experience mild illness or no symptoms at all， but it can be more severe for others．G． When people cough or sneeze they spray small liquid droplets from their noses or mouths which may contain virus．第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节完形填空（共20题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项.并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．6.
