Each gift was truly special to me, except my 46 mood（情绪）. It was kind of them to 47 me. After a while, I heard a small nervous 48 say my name. I looked up to see Brandon standing 49 by my desk, holding a small, round gift. “This is for you.” “Thank you, Sweetheart.” I laid it on my desk with the others.“Um, could you 50 it now?”I gently tore at the paper and tape. “ 51 ,” he said, “its breakable.” Slowly I opened a small, green Christmas tree ornament（装饰物）, complete with a hook already 52 . It dawned on me what he had done. Then a nearby student said that he just pulled that off his own tree. I tried to keep my 53 back.Later that day, I sat 54 the ornament in my hands.

Adult daughters are often expected to caregive for older parents. In 2020, Jorjan Sarich and her dad moved from California to Idaho. It was where he wanted to live his rest time.“I left my occupation, I left my friends; he did the same thing,” said Sarich, who bought a house with her father, George Snyder, in the China Gardens neighborhood of Hailey after his health began to decline. Though a graduate student struggling to finish her dissertation（论文）, Sarich chose to be her dads full-time caregiver.“Its only now, several years later, that Im realizing how much work it was. Its the kind of exhaustion（疲惫）that sleep doesnt cure,” she said.About 6 million Americans provide care to elderly relatives or friends living outside of nursing homes. Laurel Kennedy, author of “The Daughter Trap” (Thomas Dunne Books, $25.95), says that women bear a disproportionate（不成比例的）share of the burden about 70 percent of hands-on caregiving such as bathing.“I want to be clear: Women dont hate this,” Kennedy said. “What they hate is that everyone just assumes theyll do it.”Kennedy is calling for a social revolution equal to the rise of affordable child care and day care: Employers should help working caregivers by offering accommodations. Men should step up more often. Its unfair that women are always chosen to provide care for an elderly family member.Despite the hard work it took on Sarich interrupted sleep and the knowledge that his 2020 death was the end game, she would do it again. Since about half a century had gone by, she wasnt the person he remembered, and he wasnt the person she remembered either. Caring for her father changed how each saw the other.56. Why did Jorjan Sarich caregive for her father?A. It was a very easy job. B. She had no work to do.C. It was the social practice.D. She lived with her father.57. What can we infer from the book “The Daughter Trap”?A. Daughters dont like caregiving.B. Daughters devote a lot to caregiving.C. Caregiving is daughters duty.D. Caregiving should be sons duty.58. What does the underlined phrase “a social revolution” refer to?A. The child care revolution.B. The reform in day care.C. The social development. D. The change in caregiving.59. How many years did Jorjan Sarich work as her fathers full-time caregiver?A. Five years.B. Only one year.C. Four years.D. Two years.60. In her caregiving, Jorjan Sarich _.A. got along well with her fatherB. was a little tired of her fatherC. changed her father in every way D. felt it was unfair to do soBIQUIQUE, Chile (Reuters) Rescue workers at the San Jose gold and copper mine in northern Chile had reason to sing this week. A small hole drilled into the earth became a passage to freedom for 33 trapped miners, who spent 69 days underground. “Never have people been trapped for so long so deeply,” says a doctor at NASA, the American space agency, which helped in the rescue.But the chief medical officer for the miners said most are in good enough health to leave the hospital within a day or so. The first three recovered and went home Thursday night.For much of the day the miners relaxed with Chilean President Sebastian Pinera. The 32 Chileans and 1 Bolivian still wore special sunglasses to protect their eyes.A partial mine collapse on 5th August trapped them more than half a kilometer underground. They had to stretch a two-day food supply. For two weeks no one knew if they were alive or dead. Later, they received supplies.The first miner rescued on Wednesday was Florencio Avalos. The second was Mario Sepulveda, who talked about how the experience tested his faith. The last miner up was Luis Urzua, who was the shift leader when his crew became trapped.Rescuers used a metal cage to pull the miners to safety in less than 24 hours faster than expected. The rescue capsule was a half-meter wide and known as the Phoenix, an imaginary bird from ancient stories. It bursts into flames but is continually reborn and rises from the ashes.Chiles Navy built the capsule with advice from mining experts and NASA engineers. It worked like an elevator, traveling up and down on a cable through a shaft（竖井）drilled 622 meters into the rocks.Millions of people around the world watched the rescue. More than one thousand journalists traveled to the mine in the Atacama Desert to report on the rescue. They joined family members of the miners and rescue crews housed in an area of tents known as Camp Hope.61. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Rescued miners speak outB. Miners life deep undergroundC. A rebirth for 33 rescued miners in ChileD. Chilean president honors rescued miners62. How many rescued miners are still in hospital?A. 3. B. 30. C. 33. D. 69.63. We can infer from the passage that _.A. all the trapped miners are ChileansB. the Chileans rescued the miners aloneC. the rescue caught the worlds attentionD. the trapped miners lived easily underground64. Which of the following is true of the Phoenix?A. It was a wooden cage like a capsule.B. It worked efficiently in the rescue.C. It was named after a real Chilean bird.D. It was built by NASA engineers.65. The rescue is great for the reason that _.A. 33 trapped miners were savedB. the American space agency took partC. Chilean President was on the rescuing spotD. it lasted so long and the miners were trapped so deepCA town in Oxfordshire has become the first in the UK to have biomethane（生物甲烷）gas from human waste piped to their homes for gas central heating and cooking.Up to 200 families in Didcot now receive the gas via the national gas power system. Head of energy and technology at British Gas, Martin Orrill, said customers wouldnt notice any difference as the gas is purified（提炼）to the highest standard and has no smell. The gas is produced at a sewage（污物）treatment works plant in Didcot.The entire process takes only less than three weeks, with the sewage being collected and sent first to settlement tanks. The solid waste material is then fed into digesters, where anaerobic bacteria（厌氧菌）digest the sewage, with the aid of enzymes（酶）to speed up the process. The digestion process produces methane, which can be burned to drive machines to produce electricity, or can be purified and fed into the gas network and piped to homes and businesses. British Gas says supplying the gas rather than electricity is far more efficient since around two-thirds of the energy is lost in producing electricity.Partners in the Didcot project, British Gas, Scotia Gas Networks, and Thames Water, all hope to expand the process to other towns, and other companies such as Ecotricity and United Utilities have also announced biomethane projects being planned. One of these projects, in Manchester, could be supplying 500 homes with biomethane by mid next year. Another British Gas project in Suffolk will provide gas from digestion of brewery wastes to around 235 families.The Didcot project cost 2.5m and was influenced by promises of government aids aimed at encouraging companies to develop renewable technologies. An EU directive means the UK must ensure at least 15 percent of its energy is from renewable sources by 2020. The UK produces about 1.73 million tons of sewage annually. If all sewage treatment works in the UK were fitted with the technology, they could supply gas for up to 350,000 families.66. Which of the following is true of the biomethane gas?A. Its mainly made from rotting plants.B. Its an environmentally friendly gas.C. Its production process is too long.D. Its easily recognized by the customers.67. What is the function of the enzymes?A. To digest the solid waste material.B. To help get rid of anaerobic bacteria.C. To help purify the biomethane.D. To speed up the digestion process.68. According to British Gas, the biomethane gas had better be used _.A. as the power for the vehiclesB. for the heating and cookingC. to produce the electricityD. to drive a variety of machines69. The last three paragraphs mainly show that _.A. UK government supports the biomethane projectsB. the biomethane projects are very costlyC. the biomethane projects still face many barriersD. the biomethane projects are promising70. What should the text belong to?A. Computer science.B. Engineering.C. Energy.D. Business.DAmericas greatest technological achievement, the Hoover Dam, now has a companion piece, a bridge held up by the longest arch in the Western Hemisphere（半球）. The Mike OCallaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, which opened this month and connects the U.S. states of Arizona and Nevada, crosses the vast chasm（峡谷）890 feet above the Colorado River that is controlled by the dam.The striking 1,900-foot-long structure will improve traffic in the region and help protect the dam from being destroyed. It is the seventh highest bridge in the world, behind four in China, one in Papua New Guinea and one in the US state of Colorado.“The Hoover Dam is the greatest civil engineering achievement in Americas history,” said the bridge project manager Dave Zanatell. “Our goal was not to outdo or outshine it. Our goal was to, in a respectful way, do something that would be great for our generation and that
