Bryant, a barrier breaker who stood firm in her determination to be a respected jazz trumpet player despite the open sexism (性别歧视) that shadowed her, died on August 25, in 2019, in Los Angeles, when she was 92. Life as a jazz trumpeter was an uphill battle, said her son Darrin. "It was a man's world, and that made it hard for her. But that only fueled her fire, and made her more resolved."
Bryant played the trumpet with such passion and she became a mainstay in the growing jazz scene in the 1940s. Dizzy Gillespie once told Times jazz critic Leonard Feather that Bryant was the most underrated (低估) trumpet player in L.A.
But by 1992, she was living on Social Security, staying at a son's Long Beach, in California, apartment, and two of her trumpets were in the pawnshop (典当铺). "A lot of clubs have closed." she told the Times. "And how many female trumpet players do you see working?"
Bryant and her brothers were raised by their father, a patient man who encouraged his children to think big. She wanted to be in the high school marching band, but Charles Bryant warned his daughter she'd likely face resistance. "But anything you want to do, I'm behind you," she recalled. It was her father who encouraged her to do whatever she wanted to do that made her stronger and stronger.
(1)、What does the underlined word "resolved" in paragraph 1 probably mean?A、Adventurous. B、Unique. C、Emotional. D、Determined.(2)、Why is "Social Security" mentioned in paragraph 3?A、To show people's acts of kindness. B、To prove Bryant's struggle through life. C、To explain how Bryant earned his living. D、To stress the importance of the pawnshop.(3)、What's the key reason for Bryant's being underrated?A、The open sexism from society. B、The poor family background. C、The terrible financial situation. D、The mental pressure from colleagues.(4)、What played an important role for Bryant to stick to her dream?A、Her son's support. B、Her brothers' company. C、Her strict family education. D、Her father's encouragement.3. 阅读理解Going against the trend (趋势) of going to well-known yet crowded tourist destinations on vacation, a growing number of holidaymakers in China are spending their holidays at lesser- known places to look for unique and relaxed holiday experiences. "Reverse tourism" has appeared as a new trend among young holidaymakers in China.
During the weeklong public holiday, which ended on Oct 7, large numbers of vacationers, especially youth who long to escape their busy city lives, avoid popular holiday destinations in order to get off the beaten track and enjoy some peace and quietness.
According to data from online travel agency Qunar, the number of rooms booked at hotels in less-traveled cities during the holiday was up 30 percent year-on-year. Bookings for four and five-star hotels in less-traveled places, including Linxia in Gansu province and Shizuishan in the Ningxia, all increased at least 10 times from the same period of 2021. Even 12.5 percent of youth who normally have little time for themselves simply had a time in a hotel to make the much-awaited holiday more relaxing.
Besides crowds, some vacationers chose less-traveled places to save on the cost of trips to popular destinations, which often involve expensive tickets, meals and hotel stays.What' more, lesser-known attractions are able to offer more natural experiences, according to social media posts. And unlike popular destinations, some undeveloped places with little online attention can offer more surprises.
Jiang Han, a senior researcher at the Beijing-based public policy think tank Pangoal, said that reverse tourism will become one of the future directions for the market and is an opportunity for growth which can match the camping economy.
(1)、If you support "reverse tourism", you will probably choose____.A、a famous tourist destination on holidays B、a unique and impressive vacation C、a developed destination to enjoy yourself D、a lesser-known place for relaxed experiences(2)、How does the author develop paragraph 3?A、By giving numbers. B、By listing reasons. C、By comparing opinions. D、By following time order.(3)、What's Jiang Han's attitude towards the future of reverse tourism?A Negative. B. Doubtful. C. Positive. D. Unconcerned.
(4)、What's the main idea of this passage?A、Vacationers can save money while travelling. B、People prefer to spend their holidays by travelling. C、More and more people accept less-travelled destinations. D、Young people often have little time to travel around.4. 阅读理解A report from the UN warns that countries' current commitments would reduce carbon by only about 7.5% by 2030, far less than the 45% cut, which scientists say is needed to limit global temperature rises to 1.5℃, the aim of the COP26 summit (峰会).
Antonio Guterres, the UN secretary-general, described the findings as a "thundering wake-up call" to world leaders, while experts called for action against fossil fuel companies.
Although more than 100 countries have promised to reach net zero emissions (净零排放) around mid-century, this would not be enough to avoid climate disasters, according to the UN emissions report, which examines the shortfall (差额) between countries' intentions and actions needed on the climate. Many of the net zero commitments were found to be unclear, and unless accompanied by strict cuts in emissions this decade would allow global heating of a potentially disastrous extent.
Gutierrez said: "The heat is on, and as the contents of the report show, the leadership we need is off. Far off. Countries are wasting a massive opportunity to invest Covid-19 finance and recovery resources in sustainable, cost-saving, planet-saving ways. As world leaders prepare for COP26, that is another thundering wake-up call. How many do we need?"
Inger Andersen, the director of the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) said: "Climate change is no longer a future problem. It is a now problem. To stand a chance of limiting global warming to 1.5℃, we have 8 years to almost halve greenhouse gas emissions: 8 years to make the plans, put in place the policies, carry them out and deliver the cuts. The clock is ticking loudly."
Emissions fell by about 5.4% last year during Covid lockdowns, the report found, but only about one-fifth of the economic recovery spending goes towards reducing carbon emissions. This failure to "build back better", despite promises by governments around the world, cast doubt on the world's willingness to make the economic shift necessary to settle the climate crisis, the UN said.
In the run-up (前期) to COP26, countries were supposed to submit (递交) national plans to cut emissions—called nationally determined contributions (NDCs) —for the next decade, a requirement under the 2015 Paris climate agreement. But the UNEP report found only half of countries had submitted new NDCs, and some governments had presented weak plans.
(1)、Why were the findings described as a "thundering wake-up call" in Para. 2?A、Because the world has failed to live up to its current commitments. B、Because the opportunities presented by covid-19 have been wasted. C、Because the world is falling behind in slowing down temperature rises. D、Because the serious problems were brought about by global fossil fuels.(2)、The potential disastrous harm of global warming in the coming ten years can be reduced if ____.A、strict measures are taken to reduce emissions B、current commitments of many countries remain unchanged C、huge gaps are bridged between previous and present proposals D、global sustainable environmental resources develops significantly(3)、What is the writer's purpose of quoting "How many do we need?" in Para.4?A、To show the number of alarm clocks required. B、To explain the reason for the world's wasting chances. C、To ask for the number of the countries attending the meeting. D、To stress the need to make the most of resources and reduce emissions.(4)、What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A、Few countries have submitted plans to reduce the emissions. B、Many countries' plans to cut emissions are far from satisfactory. C、Most of the countries work under the Paris Climate Agreement. D、Much progress in reducing emissions his been made these years.二、第一部分,阅读理解,第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)

5. 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
Soothe the Sunday scaries
Most of us look forward to the weekend as a time to relax, connect with friends and family, and deal with tasks from a to-do list that gets neglected during the workweek. But as the weekend comes to an end, many are missing out on Sunday Funday and instead experiencing an overwhelming sense of anxiety and even dread about the upcoming week. Some people describe it as a heaviness they can feel in their body, while others feel so unsettled that they could jump out of their skin.
Even though the Sunday scaries are common, they are manageable. Here's how experts say you can ease your end-of-weekend anxiety.
Structure your Sunday. You might still go through that sense of dread, but that feeling is harder to hold on to when you' re engaging in something that makes you feel good.
Don't forget to relax. If you're feeling more stress, it's important to make space for relaxing activities to ground yourself. Maybe a midafternoon shower or bath, maybe an engaging movie or show, whatever feels like a helpful distraction to reground from the scaries.
Identify your anxiety sources.Try to figure out what's really causing you to dread the week. Even if there's not a single reason behind your Sunday anxiety, organizing the stress into small parts can help make it all more manageable.
Getting rid of the Sunday scaries isn't just about minimizing the gloom of the week ahead. Have something to look forward to. This gives you the opportunity to shift your thoughts to fun and will help improve your mood.
End your Sunday with the right energy.Sunday night is a proper wind-down time. Maybe you want to journal, do a face mask, read a few pages of a good book. Do your best to honor this time and make Sunday night all about you.
A. Is it a deadline, meeting or presentation?
B Create some excitement for the week ahead.
C. Experts have referred to this worry as Sunday scaries.
D. Sunday scaries come from tiredness after a really busy weekend.
E. Then you feel empowered and confident that you'll be ready for the next day.
F. Instead of sitting on the couch and watching the clock, go to do something that you enjoy.
G. Anxiety is a natural response that happens in preparation for anything that causes pain or discomfort.
