Brooklyn Children's Museum

Founded in 19 as the country's first museum specifically made for children, today BCM is comprehensive, with a permanent collection of 30,000 objects, including musical instruments, masks and dolls. Kids love the interactive World Brooklyn, a small cityscape（城市风光）lined by stores where children can pretend to be working grown-ups.

Children's Museum of Manhattan

Looking for interactive art that welcomes curious minds? Then head to Inside Art, the current show up at CMOM, which lets your little ones climb in and over and all around the exhibits.

CMOM also hosts classes—like Gross Biology for kids who are interested in insects-all designed with the latest child-development research in mind.

DiMenna Children's History Museum

The hands-on displays at this kid-focused arm of the New York Historical Society transport children back through 350 years of US history, with a special focus on NYC. Children are encouraged to climb around and interact with exhibits that highlight the lives of kids who grew up to become famous doctors, athletes and political figures! Little New Yorkers can get in on sing-alongs and crafts. Other family programs include cookings classes, games and story hours.

It offers hands-on experiences like the Block Harbor（plenty of blocks to play with!）, larger-than-life games like Connect Four and Dominoes, and even the opportunity to climb through a human-sized anthill or play firefighter at Ladder 11, so you'll find immersive（沉浸式的）fun around every corner.

36-year-old Juan Dual likes to joke that he’s empty inside. Juan’s story began when he was only 13. It was then that he was diagnosed with a terrible disease, which left him with a 99.8% chance of developing cancer of the digestive system. At age 19, right after finishing high-school, Juan underwent a tough operation to take away his colon and rectum. Sadly, it was only the beginning. By age 28, Juan’s disease had affected his stomach and gallbladder so he had to go under the knife again.

Having just recovered from several serious surgeries, Juan Dual decided to accept the invitation of some friends of his parents and travel to Japan. It was there that things started to change for the better. He didn’t speak a word of Japanese, so he spent most of his time walking his dog. One day, the dog pulled harder, and Juan realized that he was still able to jog, and he started to do just that.

Months later, he found himself working in a small, peaceful town in England. There was little in terms of entertainment, but the town was surrounded by hills, so he devoted even more of his time to running. He befriended some like-minded folks and told them what he’d been through, and they seemed amazed at the fact that he was still alive, let alone that he was pushing himself to exercise. That’s when the idea of focusing on motivating others took root in his mind.

With the help of Pepa, a nutritionist, Juan Dual slowly relearned how to eat to keep his energy level high enough to sustain him during physical activity. Eight months after his last operation, he finished the Barcelona half marathon in two hours. He then started training for mountain running and ultra-marathons. 4. Why does Juan Dual say he is empty inside?

A. Because he has no desire for anything. B. Because he doesn’t have much knowledge.

C. Because he always suffers from great hunger. D. Because many of his organs have been removed.

5. What made Juan Dual aware that he could still run?

A. His parents’ support. B. A walk with his dog.

C. The idea of challenging himself. D. His quick recovery from surgeries. 6. When did Juan Dual decide to inspire others with his story? A. After finishing the Barcelona half marathon. B After being introduced to a nutritionist named Pepa. C. After sharing it with his friends in an English town. D. After making friends with people with similar sufferings. 7. Which of the following words can best describe Juan Dual?

A. Ambitious and intelligent. B. Inspiring and responsible. C. Unfortunate but determined. D. Confident but stubborn.

C

A former UPS driver and his wife have made history by donating $20 million to Morgan State University – the largest gift any historically black college or university (HBCU) has ever received from a former student. The money, pledged by Calvin Tyler Jr and his wife Tina, will fund scholarships that were established under the Tylers’ name in 2002.

Tyler grew up in a low-income family and was forced to drop out of Morgan State University in 1963 because he could no longer afford to study. The following year, Tyler saw a job advertisement in a Baltimore newspaper from United Parcel Service and got a job with the company as a driver. He rose through the ranks during his 34-year career at the global shipping company to become its senior vice president of US operations and a member of the board of directors before retiring in 1998.

Tyler and his wife, also a Baltimore native, have lived all across the country but he said they have never forgotten their humble beginnings.

Their latest pledge follows a $5million commitment they made in 2016 for the fund, which to date has supported 222 students with full or partial scholarships.

Marybeth Gasman, a professor at Rutgers University who studies HBCUs, said the gift is significant because public HBCU’s like Morgan State University tend to have a lower alumni giving rate compared to private ones.

“For a long time, they weren’t asking alumni to give,” she said. But that has changed in the past couple of decades, she added, and the schools have “started asking alumni to give and creating a culture of philanthropy (慈善) on campus.”

David K. Wilson, the president of Morgan State University, said the money will help students for years to

come. “Morgan is so proud to call this son and daughter of the great city of Baltimore our own,” he said in a statement. “Through their historic giving, the doors of higher education will most certainly be kept open for generations of aspiring leaders whose financial shortfalls may have kept them from realizing their academic dreams.”

“We are forever indebted to the Tylers”. 8. Why is Tyler’s donation historic? A. He was a former UPS driver. B. The donation is large enough. C. The donation will fund his scholarships. D. He used to be a student at the university. 9. What is a driving force of Tyler’s donation?

A. His working experiences. B. His career achievements.

C. His promise to the university. D. His past embarrassing situations. 10. Which is true about HBCUs according to Gasman? A. They are mainly public universities. B. They are encouraging alumni to donate. C. They rarely accept help from the alumni. D. They have changed little over the decades.

11. What can be inferred about Tyler from Wilson’s comments?

A. He’s helped many city leaders. B. He’s grateful to his university. C. He’s made great contributions. D. He’s proud of his son and daughter.

D

The measurable threat to the environment has been worsened by the spread of COVID-19 that increases the need for plastic protective equipment. Most plastic is made from fossil fuels. Millions of tons of greenhouse gas are released from the development of these resources and plastic production and burning.

The end life of plastic is just worrisome. Less than 10% of the plastic produced has been recycled. Even more of it has been burned. But the vast majority of plastic has been buried inland, and it is increasingly polluting the environment. We hear mostly about ocean plastic and the harm done to sea creatures that mistake plastic bags and bits for food. But microplastic is even more worrisome. Plastic doesn't break down biologically but instead breaks down into tiny particles（a very small piece of something）, which have been found in every corner of the

planet, on land and in the air, in drinking water and food sources.

Yet the public has not given this global environmental disaster the attention it requires. Instead, they have viewed single-use plastic—which makes up about 40% of plastic used each year—as a litter issue that can be solved through better recycling and waste management. That attitude must change because the recent global breakdown of the market for recycling has made it clear that it has never been, nor ever will be, able to keep up with plastic trash use.

California has been the forerunner of plastic waste reduction—it was the first state to ban single-use plastic bags and may be the first state to transform the way goods are packaged. The state also came close to passing an act which would have required that products sold in plastic packaging in the state have a proven recycling rate of 75% by 2032. California, though influential, can't solve this crisis alone. The US has long been producing a great amount of plastic trash and it should engage in reducing the use of plastic as well. 12. Why does the author mention the release of greenhouse gas in paragraph 1? A. To show the harm of plastic B. To warn of the climate change.

C. To call for the development of fossil fuels. D. To highlight the importance of plastic equipment.

13. What's the author's attitude towards the public opinion on single-use plastic? A. Favorable. B. Tolerant. C. Curious. D. Opposed.

14. What's California's role in reducing plastic waste? A. A pioneer. B. A failure. C. An objector. D. A predictor. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Microplastic Products Are Harmful B. Waste Recycling Is an Urgent Matter C. Plastic Waste Pollution Is a Wake-up Call D. Global Environmental Disasters Are Increasing 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

Can you move 11 minutes a day? You’ll live longer if you do

There is no denying that 2020 has reduced activity levels. Between the Zoom meetings, Netflix binges and virtual cocktail hours, increased sitting is a pandemic-driven reality for many.____16____But there is good news! Despite all that sedentary time, with as little as 11 minutes of movement a day, you can increase your life span, a recent study has found.____17____It's true; past studies, including a popular study from 2016, had originally put the daily exercise target at 60 to 75 minutes for mortality benefits. However, that study was based on self-reported data, which this latest study, published in theBritish Journal of Sports Medicine, found to be flawed due to people misremembering their actual activity levels.

Taking a more objective approach, scientists at the Norwegian School of Sports Medicine based their research on the use of activity monitors to track exercise versus sedentary time. The results showed that participants who exercised 35 minutes per day saw the biggest statistical difference on life span. Yet just 11 minutes of moderate exercise — equivalent to a brisk walk — still had a noticeable positive impact.____18____

Here is a way to consider—4 sets of a 3-minute body-weight exercise sequence. Depending on the exercises you use, you may go at a slightly different pace during each round, making it about 11 minutes. When selecting your exercises, try to pick a sequence of movements that will equate to a full-body workout of moderate effort.____19____Ideally, do a combo, determining the number of repetitions for each exercise based on your fitness level and maintaining a three-minute sequence for the time frame.

See how easy it is to fit in 11 minutes of daily exercise? You can do it.____20____Although no one can give you a do-over of 2020, you can make up for lost time by adding a little more to your life span. A. In fact, you owe it to yourself after getting through this past year. B. And studies have revealed the great health risks of prolonged sitting. C. The simplest way is with a walk outside or on the treadmill at your local gym. D. A lower barrier makes it easier to get even the most inactive among us moving.

E. You might wonder about the hour-per-day measurement you've been hearing about for years. F. What's more, both time frames were positively impactful, regardless of the amount of sitting. G. Avoid doing only upper-body movements unless you do lower-body movements the next day. 第二部分 语言运用（共两节，满分45分）
