2．Veronica Vorobet learned about caring in her home country of Romania by nursing her grandparents.In 2013，after their deaths，she moved to England to find a job using the freedom provided by EU （European Union） membership.
Vorobet，36，is one of a quarter of a million care workers who are not UK citizens，a rising percentage of whom have come from the EU in recent years.They have become an essential part of a low-paid workforce that is constantly understaffed （人手不足的），with about 120，000 unoccupied positions.
Yesterday，she expressed disappointment with the announcement that there would be no special treatment for carers coming into the UK after Brexit --- British exit from the EU.
"I want to see people treated the way I want to be treated and to make a difference in people's lives，making a feeling of home for everyone， " she told the Guardian. "The foreign workers are important in this.They are able to work under a lot of stress and long hours.In my country we are very close to our elderly people and that is what we show here.We try to be close to them and respect their wishes. "
She said her approach was to treat residents as if they were her own grandparents and provide similar levels of "support and love. " When she arrived in the UK，Vorobet started as a junior care worker on minimum wage in a home for older people in Petersfield，Hampshire.Seven years on and having studied for an NVQ in health and social care，she is a deputy （副的） care manager at St Anthony's residential care home in Watford，part of RMD Care.There she works alongside other Romanian people，and care workers from India，Sri Lanka and Kenya.
Her most recent trial has been keeping coronavirus （冠狀病毒）out of the home，so far successfully.She said that given the difficulty of taking on care workers，European workers have helped create stability in the workforce.Staff turnover rates in adult social care currently stand at about 30% a year.
"The government should do their research and find out who does these jobs and understand the risk of taking this decision.The risk is that there won't be enough staff to look after the people in need， " she said.
（1）Why does the author mention "with about 120，000 unoccupied positions" in Paragraph 2？

B．To highlight the current situation of the UK.
C．To show the importance of foreign carers in the UK.
D．To reveal foreign carers' determination to stay in the UK.
（2）What does Vorobet think of foreign carers in the UK？
A．They are hardworking and considerate.
B．They are unwilling to work with a low pay.
C．They work at the risk of being physically abused.
D．They have to leave their countries to seek a fortune.
（3）The underlined part "this decision" in the last paragraph refers to the decision that.
A．European workers must be fired soon
B．foreign carers will be treated with a low pay
C．foreign carers in the UK will be given no particular treatment
D．the British government bans European workers from finding jobs in England
（4）What's the main purpose of this passage？
A．To introduce Vorobet，a woman from UK.
B．To present the current situation of the EU carers.
C．To reveal the problems of the UK after Brexit.
D．To predict the future workforce in the UK.組卷：1引用：1難度：0.5 -
3．Many older people around the world have at least one common concern：How to get younger people，hooked on their electronic devices，interested in classic art.Take the Monkey King，or Sun Wukong，as an example.The main character in the 16th-century classic novel，Journey to the West，is a romantic figure of bravery and adventure that charmed millions of readers before the appearance of online attractions.
Havoc in Heaven，a new Peking Opera film，attracted the wider public to the glamour of the traditional Chinese performance art，featuring one of the best-known chapters from Journey to the West.This film，expected to create a new channel to promote Peking Opera，includes nearly all the key ingredients of Peking Opera.It covers all the basic techniques，more than 10 classic tunes，and makeup for dozens of facial representations of different figures' characteristics.
It's actually a big challenge to combine Peking Opera and film，each of which has its own rhythm，according to Cheng Lu，director of the film，who is adopting a fresh approach to present the traditional art form.One challenge that Cheng and his production team faced is how to balance the new approach with maintaining the fundamentals of the art.The basic principles and performance skills in Peking Opera cannot be changed.For example，performances in Peking Opera often emphasize symbolism over the accurate representation of motion.There are never real horses on stage，and the film reflects that.And when Sun Wukong eats peaches，he merely copies the action of eating without taking a bite.
Some background images on stage，such as a painted waterfall，remain，and a live band was on the set to provide sound for the film，rather than employing the pre-recorded music. "If we change traditions to cater to people's taste and preference for a regular film，it will no longer be a Peking Opera piece of art， "Cheng said.
On the other hand，some creativity was needed because Cheng and his team did not just want to document a stage performance.Computer technology is also applied to achieve some visual effects and to present impossible scenes，such as explosions or the heavenly court floating in the clouds.Also，the filming process leaves no room for actors to make the slightest mistake in front of cameras，such as those that would probably go unnoticed in an opera house.
Peking Opera films played a powerful role in the 1960s and 70s，but their popularity gave way to more diverse entertajye.aiment.In recent years，there has been a recovery in the popularity of Peking Opera films.However，the overuse of special effects in many film adaptations of Peking Opera plays has weakened the original charm of the stage performances.The imagination （enabled by the stage） can never be sacrificed for a film's expression.
（1）What is the purpose of the first paragraph？
A．To blame young people addicted to electronic devices.
B．To advertise a new Peking Opera film，Havoc in Heaven.
C．To express older people's concern about the young generation.
D．To arouse readers' interest in traditional Chinese performance art.
（2）What did Director Cheng do while producing the film？
A．He made changes to basic performance skills.
B．He made use of symbols and motions equally.
C．He insisted on a band playing music on the scene.
D．He brought onto the stage exact details of real life.
（3）What innovation did Cheng's team make？
A．They opposed a rigid recording of the performance.
B．They enriched visual effects with modern technology.
C．They allowed actors to repeat actions before the camera.
D．They adopted real explosion scenes during the shooting.
（4）What can we conclude from the last paragraph？
A．Imagination is a unique charm of Peking Opera films.
B．Technology makes up for the loss of stage imagination.
C．There is some possibility for a film to replace Peking Opera.
D．The original charm of Peking Opera cannot be sacrificed for films.組卷：10引用：2難度：0.5

9．閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落首句進行續(xù)寫，使之構(gòu)成一個完整的故事。
An anxious call came into Jimmy Gilleece's bar.A newly married woman，who had spent the afternoon
at the bar，couldn't find her wallet.She didn't care about her ID，credit cards，or ﹩150 in cash --- but her wedding ring was inside.
Gilleece didn't like the idea that a theft could have occurred at his place.So he set out to find the wallet.
He spent hours looking through security-camera videos，watching the woman's every step in the bar until she went to sit on a chair outside and left when her ride arrived.Within minutes，a young man approached the bench，slipped something into his pocket，and walked off.Gilleece posted a clip on the bar's Facebook page，
"I didn't want to punish him， " he said， "I just asked if anybody knew who the guy was. "
Within hours，Gilleece got a text from 17-year-old Prather，who admitted having taken the wallet and told Gilleece he'd done it because he hadn't eaten in two days.He said he saw the ring but thought it was fake，so he took the money and threw the wallet off the dock （碼頭） into the ocean.Then he bought a sandwich.Gilleece，unsure whether he believed Prather，told the teen to meet him at the dock，where they got talking and Prather revealed that he wasn't getting along with his family and had been living in the woods for a week.Judging from Prather's small body and red cheeks，Gilleece saw him for what he was：more of a kid than a criminal.
But the police were already on the case，and because of the missing ring，Prather could be facing charges， "He would be going to big boy prison.I have to help him somehow， "Gilleece thought.
Paragraph 1：
Gilleece paid two divers to search the waters where Prather had thrown the wallet.__________
Paragraph 2：
Then suddenly a diver came up to the surface of the water._____________組卷：1引用：1難度：0.3
