21、 With schools close in the UK during the COVID-19 outbreak, most children must now be homeschooled. Parents have found themselves not only having to balance work and having the children at home but also having to try and teach them. How can you keep your children focused while learning?
Nicola Anderson--Head of Customer Support at the UK’s leading online tutoring service My Tutor, provides new, up-to-date tips to hearten parents at this difficult time and advises how they can structure their children’s days.
One is to keep to a regular timetable so it still feels like your child is taking part in the school day. Ms Anderson said, “Children of all ages do well on routine and boundaries; schools provide this in abundance and it will make most children feel secure and happy if they can follow a similar timetable for their homeschooling.”
Another tip is to create an environment which is favorable to learning. She said, “The environment should be free from distractions and ideally near to an open window, to provide them with appropriate levels of fresh air and natural light. Some children find it comfortable and helpful to have quiet, instrumental music playing in the background to help them to focus, but this isn’t for everyone.”
Using technology to help with your child’s learning is also advised. Many schools are offering online classes and resources to help and companies are reducing or even not charging their fees during this time.
It is also important to keep physical exercise as a part of your routine. Joe Wicks, otherwise known as The Body Coach, has been keeping kids healthy with daily 10 minute workouts for children on his Youtube channel. Ms Anderson said, “It can be anything from running around the garden, walking the dog, a game of football or dancing around your living room!“
【1】Who is the text intended for?
A.Students B.Teachers.
C.Coaches. D.Parents.
【2】What may Nicola Anderson agree?
A.To allow children to adjust schedule freely.
B.To offer children peaceful study environment.
C.To recommend high-tech to online schools.
D.To combine routine with kids’ mental health.
【3】What is the text mainly about?
A.How to improve homeschooling efficiency.
B.How to obtain online learning resources.
C.How to study attentively at home.

23、My backyard used to be a junkyard, a tragic mix of rubbles, tires, pipes, chew toys, glass shards. 【1】 How can we avoid all this dirt and sunlight and water going to waste? Below are several tips to get started.
Create a vision based on your space.
Think about the space you’re cultivating. Is it a yard? A rooftop? A windowsill? A fire escape? How much sunlight does it get? Before you make your garden plans, take a look at models like yours. Don’t Google “Hawaii dream garden” if you’re in Minnesota. Also, talk to neighbors about what grows well in your hardiness zone. 【2】
Make sure you’re working with healthy soil.
Healthy soil is full of billions of bacteria, fungi and other microbes. What exactly a plant wants can vary. Carrots and beets want sandier soil, so their roots can more easily penetrate. 【3】 Soil structure is how the particles are grouped together. The ideal structure is granular (颗粒的) or it easily breaks into very small pieces. You can get the ideal structure by buying your garden soil in bags at the hardware store or by composting (堆肥) at home.
【4】
You can start a garden in pots or containers; or you can build beds. The decision depends on your preferences, space, what you’re growing and your budget. Just about anything can be a container for your plant. 【5】So long as you drill holes in the bottom and don’t let any paint touch the soil. Remember to stay away from anything that has had a toxic use (such as oil drums) and avoid plastics, which can leach chemicals into the soil as they break down from ultraviolet light.
Now it would be a great time to build yourself a garden.
A．It felt completely hopeless.
B．Make containers or raised beds.
C．Analyze the structure of chemicals.
D．Tomatoes want more clay for water holding.
E．You can figure out what plants grow in your zone.
F．Once you create the conditions for life to grow, it grows.
G．For example, wooden wine boxes, milk crates, old pots or dresser drawers.
24、ECycling refers to the recycling of electronic items, which are becoming a common problem in American home and throughout the world. The EPA, or Environmental Protection Agency, has actually started a program to help and motivate the recycling of electronics.
To get the program to the regional and neighborhood levels, the EPA directed “Plug-In to eCycling Partners.” These partnerships support electronic reusing programs in individual communities. They provide local governments, retailers and manufacturers with opportunities to reuse and recycle their items. Those who make and offer electronic devices then promote programs and opportunities for consumers to reuse their second-hand electronic products. One of the EPA’s goals is to enlighten customers about why the recycling of electronics is so important. They likewise wish to make eCycling chances easily accessible to specific consumers and their family electronics. According to the EPA, the eCycling program has actually been quite successful. In 2008, the EPA collected 66.5 million pounds of electronic devices through their Plug-In Partners.
Local governments have actually likewise got on board and passed laws intended to handle used electronic devices. Huge corporations have actually introduced eCycling programs at their local retail stores. One seller offers customers small, medium and big boxes for sale, which the customers then load with used electronics and go back to the store. Typically, customers bring their recyclable electronics to a location. When the electronic items are gathered by the EPA (typically this is done by the Partners), they are reused or recycled.
Reused items are repaired and refurbished, and passed on to others as a contribution. You can repair or recondition your very own electronic devices too, extending the life of the items and conserving the energy of making new materials. Reusing electronic devices includes making use of the products and parts of the items. These materials and parts are then made use of to produce another item. This is more efficient than making items from new materials.
Some items that are commonly eCycled consist of televisions, computer monitors, printers, notebook computer, keyboards and cable televisions. Less usual items include copying machines, CD players, voice mail machines, computer hard drives, mobile telephones, remote controls, radios, batteries, telephones, facsimile machines and computer games. Occasionally, electronic items such as microwaves, fans, vacuums, smoke alarms, and toasters are eCycled.
As the eCycling program continues, you or your organization may want to get involved. Check the EPA’s internet site (www.epa.gov) for regional eCycling programs, or for details on how your company can participate. Their website has links to organizations that are taking part in the eCycling program.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
On February 4, while working on a construction site in Gratiot County, Michigan, Hansen heard terrified screams coming from nearby. He stopped his work and looked up. Standing on the back porch(门廊) of the home next door was a little boy yelling “Help!” while four fierce dogs barked madly in a circle below him.
At first, Hansen thought it was just a dog fight. Then alarm bells went off in his head. “The noises they made sounded like what dogs do when they’re killing something,” he says. His thought proved right when another young boy suddenly popped up in the middle of the dogs, and Hansen watched in horror as they sank in their teeth and threw him across the grass like a small doll.
“He was shirtless and covered in blood, and those dogs were trying to kill him.” says Hansen.
Hansen raced across the grass, jumped the fence, and landed in the neighbor’s yard. He shouted at the dogs, but they ignored him. Then he displayed the most aggression that he could manage, yelling louder until they let go just long enough for Hansen to catch eight-year-old Ethan Nokes around the stomach and bear-hug him. “I couldn’t hold him under his armpits(腋窝), which would have made it easier to run, because they were torn wide open,” says Hansen.
As Hansen dashed across the yard, the dogs bounced on him, biting at Ethan. Hansen rushed onto the steps. So did the dogs. When he reached the top, he pulled on a door; it wouldn’t open. “A dog grabbed Ethan’s foot, and I thought they were going to get him back from me,” he says.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Hansen tried a second door. It sprang open.
