2．True，people remember what you wear.After a social event，we all remember the woman in red，or the man with the top hat.On the red carpet，Hollywood hopefuls take advantage of this reality by wearing outfits designed to be discussed and displayed on the front pages of newspapers.But in terms of making a good impression，being memorable is not just about novelty or fashion，but attraction，both physical and emotional，often in opposite order of importance.
In a 2020 study，Andre Ndobo found people tended to remember the extremes：both attractive and unattractive faces.He acknowledged that one suggested explanation was that both are characterized by distinctive features that promote facial recognitionwhen compared with faces of average attractiveness.But while distinctiveness is memorable，beauty is skin deep.Accordingly，the way you are remembered by others is often not about what you wear and how you look but about the way you make people feel.
Professional interaction can create positive personal memories.Adrie A.Koehler，in a piece entitled "In the Eye of the Beholder" （2017），found that when asked to recall their best learning experience，many students discussed a memorable teacher.What made the teachers memorable？According to the students，memorable qualities included not only teaching styles，but also interpersonal skills and positive qualities such as a sense of humor.
We can relate to the results of this study when recalling people who are memorable in our own lives.They are not always people who we believed to be the smartest or most believed，but often those who made us feel the most comfortable，and who were most interested in us.Sincere interest is uniquely attractive.Not only will you remember what someone said，but they will also remember you，fondly.
Regardless of what we wear or how we look，we are always naturally more appealing and approachable when we focus on others and when we are genuine rather than simply sociable.Remember that，and others will remember you.
（1）The Hollywood hopefuls are mentioned to show.
A．the competition on the red carpet
B．people's attempt to be remembered
C．people's wrong belief about impression
D．the importance of clothing in one's success
（2）Why is an unattractive face remembered according to Andre Ndobo？
A．It creates positive memories.
B．There's something special with it.
C．It makes people feel uncomfortable.
D．People often try hard to avoid seeing it.
（3）What can we infer from the text？
A．Smart people are especially attractive.
B．Teaching styles impress students most.
C．The best learning experience is hard to gain.
D．Sincere attention is useful in communication.
（4）What can be a suitable title for the text？
A．You Are What You Wear
B．Mind the Impression You Make
C．How Can We Improve Our Self-image？
D．What do People Remember about You？組卷：5引用：2難度：0.5 -
3．The over 48，000 orange trees that are distributed at all corners of Seville，Spain，not only fill the city's air with the pleasant smell of their flowers in spring，they also produce over 16，500 tons of fruit every winter.Though that makes the city Europe's top orange-producing city，the fruit is too sour to be consumed fresh.While some of the produce is used to make orange juice，most of it ends up in Seville's landfills.However，that may change soon thanks to a creative idea to use the oranges to produce clean energy.
In the pilot program，juice from 38.6 tons of oranges will be left to ferment（發(fā)酵）in an existing biogas facility.The juice is fructose（果糖）made up of very short carbon chains，and the energetic performance of these carbon chains during the fermentation process is particularly high.The gas released from the fermented liquid will be used to drive a generator to produce clean power.The officials estimate the test run will generate about 1，500 kwh of energy-enough to run a water purification plant. "It's not just about saving money.The oranges are a problem for the city，and we're producing added value from waste，" said Benigno Lopez，the head of Emasesa's environmental department.
If successful，by 2023，the city hopes to recycle all the oranges and add the electricity generated back to its grid （電網(wǎng)）.In trial runs，1，000 kilos （2，200 pounds） of oranges produced 50 kwh of clean energy一enough to meet the daily electricity needs of five homes.The project team estimates that if all the fruit is recycled，it will produce enough energy to power as many as 73，000 residences.
The latest effort is among the many programs implemented in Spain to achieve the country's goal of switching its electricity system to renewable sources by 2050一and if everything goes according to plan，fully decarbonizing its economy shortly after that.
（1）What problem does Seville face？
A．It is short of energy.
B．Most oranges are wasted.
C．Fruit production is falling.
D．Trees take up much space.
（2）What's the final product of the fermentation process？
A．Fructose.
B．Carbon chains.
C．Clean power.
D．Gas.
（3）What does the underlined word "implemented" in the last paragraph probably mean？
A．Conducted.
B．Assumed.
C．Popularized.
D．Completed.
（4）What is the author's main purpose in writing the text？
A．To prove a theory.
B．To raise a problem.
C．To introduce a project.
D．To comment on an idea.組卷：6引用：2難度：0.5

9．閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開(kāi)頭語(yǔ)續(xù)寫(xiě)兩段，使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
I grew up in the city，so moving to the country with my husband，Dillon，was a challenge.He was working away from home two weeks at a time.I wanted to adopt a dog.However，I was gone from home at least ten hours a day.It would be irresponsible to get a dog.So，I did what many dog lovers do when they can't have a dog：volunteering at the local Humane Society.
I wanted to interact with the dogs，but an adoption counselor（顧問(wèn)）appointed me to work at the front desk.One day，a couple walked in with a scared and sick one-year-old Boxer named Bella.One look at her ripped （撕）my heart wide open.The couple who sent her here had tried to take care of her after their neighbors moved away and left her behind.After a few weeks，Bella was healthy enough to be adopted.My heart sank.
After begging the adoption counselor，she finally let me in to visit Bella.I stayed with her for fifteen minutes，trying to convince myself that it still wasn't a great time to get a dog.Anyway，Dillon had just left，so he couldn't meet her.The Humane Society had a rule that potential adopters had to spend time with the dog at the shelter before they could be approved.
I couldn't ask for special treatment just because I volunteered there.But when I returned the following Tuesday，I ran to see if Bella was still there.She was.Days later，I had another visit with her and said goodbye，knowing deep down that it was for good.
For months，all I talked about was Bella一how she had been my love-at-first-sight.That spring，Dillon took a job where he no longer had to work away from home.One day，we saw that a local rescue was putting on a dog adoption fair.We met a few dogs there，but none of them was a fit for us.We decided to drive over to the Humane Society.I looked at the adoptable dogs on their website as we were driving.
注意：
1.續(xù)寫(xiě)詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
2.請(qǐng)按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
Suddenly，I saw a dog named Penelope who reminded me of Bella.______________.
I didn't understand why she had been given up for a third time，and I didn't care.______________.組卷：7引用：1難度：0.5
