Section A
News Report One
Six people had to move away from their home to another place after a fire broke out in a building on Main Street Saturday,officials said. Firefighters responded to the three-story building shortly after 1 p.m. for a reported structure fire,according to Norwalk Deputy Fire Chief Adam Markowitz.
Markowitz said crews encountered heavy smoke coming from the second floor when they arrived. A team of about 25 firefighters then spent about 25 minutes extinguishing the flames.Officials described the structure as a mixed-use building that features commercial businesses on the first floor and residential on the second and third floors.
Town records list four apartments in the building. Due to smoke and heat damage,the four apartments were declared uninhabitable, and the six residents had to move to another place,officials said.No injuries were reported in connection with the fire.The Norwalk Fire Marshal is investigating the cause and origin of the fire.
1.Why did the six residents have to find another place to stay?
2.What does the news report say the Norwalk Fire Marshal is doing?
News Report Two
A new study has cast doubt on historic research suggesting that the season or month of someone's birth is associated with an increased risk of certain mental health conditions.The study looks at symptoms of anxiety and depression among more than 70,000 older adults in Europe.A number of past studies have found the link between season of birth and mental health diagnoses.
Researchers have suggested that such links could arise from various things.These include nutrient intake, sun exposure, climate, and disease exposure varying across the course of the year.However,evidence has been mixed. More recent studies have suggested that factors such as social class or economic background have more to do with these diagnoses than month of birth.
Overall,the new study found no significant relationship between participants'month of birth and symptoms ofdepression or anxiety.There was some variability in some countries.In Poland,depressive symptoms fluctuated a little depending on birth month. In the Czech Republic, the same was true of anxiety symptoms. But on the whole, there was no systematic pattern.
3.What have a number of past studies found about season of birth?
4.What did the new study find about the relationship between participants' month of birth and symptoms of depression?
News Report Three
Genetic researchers in China have made a cl one of a star police dog.The clone was born in a laboratory in Beijing in December.Tests show that the clone and her mother are almost identical genetically.The mother dog helped solve multiple murders and many other crimes.The clone has already performed better than traditionally bred dogs on several tests.
If the clone continues to perform as well as expected, it could mean a huge reduction in the training time forpolice dogs,which usually takes about five years. The ultimate goal of scientists is to produce clones of talented police dogs that can be trained in months instead of years.However, this goal is not yet possible due to the current costs of the technology.
This is not the first time a clone has been made of a star police dog.In South Korea,six clones began working with the police in 2008.
5.What do the researchers’tests show about the cloned dog?
6.What is the scientists'purpose in cloning police dogs?
7.Why does the news report say the scientists'goal is not yet possible?
Section B
Conversation One
W: Tom, did you see the article online about the new TV series based on the book The Three Body Problem?
M: A colleague mentioned the book, but I've been so busy writing my thesis that I haven't been able to read for pleasure in months.
W: Well, sounds like if you're going to read anything for fun, this is the book. It's written by a Chinese science fiction writer.I can't remember his name, but he's written three books in all, and The Three Body Problem is the first in the series. I don't want to say too much and spoil it for you, but it's definitely got some amazing technological and sociological concepts in it.
M: It does sound like it would suit my taste, but if they are making a TV series based on it now, I don't know if I should read the book or watch the show first.
W: I think it's better to read the book first. It's rare for the show or movie to be better than the book. And then, you just end up ruining the book for yourself, if the show isn't very good.
M: When is the show supposed to start? I'm a bit overwhelmed with the amount of data I still need to co llect to finish my thesis. But I still need to relax sometimes.
W: I can't remember exactly. It's pretty soon, and it's going to be quite long. There are 24 episodes.Well, maybe you could download an electronic copy of the book and try to read it before the show starts.
M: That's a good idea. And then, maybe we can watch the series together. Thanks for the tip, Alice.
W: No problem.
8.How did the man get to know about the book The Three Body Problem?
9.What does the woman say she can't remember about the book's author?
10.What does the man have to do to fi nish his thesis?

Conversation Two
W: Hello,good afternoon.I have an inquiry to make.It's about the vegetarian food festival you are holding on the 19th of August at the Newcastle City Hall.
M: Yes,of course. My name's Philip. How can I help you?
W: It says on your website that you are still looking for vendors,and I grow organic vegetables on my farm, as well as doing my own home baking. Would I be able to se ll both the vegetables and items baked from them at the festival?
M: That's exactly the type of thing we are looking for.We're getting close to the deadline, however. Do you prefer to fill out an application on the web, or to print it out and fill it in by hand and then post it back to us? Remember that you will have to have all your certificates to hand when you are filling out the forms, as the standards are high and they’ll be carefully checked before anyone will be able to sell their produce at the event.
W: I should be fine with doing it on your website, and I already have all my certificates, as we run a small farm shop too. But can you give me your details anyway?
M: Sure. Please address it to the Organic Organization,Vendor Applications, 112 Queens Road, Newcastle, Northumbria. The postcode is NU 29 3LJ.Remember that the closing date is next Tuesday, the 28th of June.
W: That's absolutely wonderful.Thank you so much for your help.Goodbye.

13.What is the man still looking for?
14.What does the man say they are getting close to?

Section C
Passage One
Supporters call it“wild camping”; opponents call it“illegal camping”. What both sides accept is that there has been a boom in the past few months, with increasing numbers of visitors pitching their tents on any bit of land they fancy in the UK.In part, this reflects the fact that official campsites have been wholly or partially closed, or are overflowing in a summer when fewer people are going abroad. It is also cheap,at a time when many are worried about what the economic future holds. But it may also be an expression of a desire for going outdoors—a response to the months of lockdown.
Most of the coverage of the boom in wild camping has been negative.Camping in public parks has now been banned for August and the early part of September because campers dump litter, human waste, and even their tents on the grassland. Similar action has been taken even in Scotland, where camping is usually permitted on most of its open land.
Clearly there have to be rules. It would make sense that wild campers need to ask for permission to camp from landowners, especially outside Scotland, where the law is far more restrictive.It would be common sense for people to use small tents and leave no trace of their visit. They have been attracted by a patch of land this close to wilderness, and it is their responsibility to keep it that way.
16.Why has wild camping become popular in the UK?
17.Why is camping banned for part of the summer in public parks?
18.What does the speaker suggest campers do?
Passage Two
Imagine boating down the Amazon River, minding your own business—calmly keeping an eye out for alarmingly large snakes—and a curious pink dolphin appears to swim alongside.While this may seem like a mythical creature, pink dolphins do exist in the Amazon region.
The Amazon river dolphin is a giant among its species. It can measure up to 2 meters long and weigh around 204 kilograms. Size isn't the only thing that sets the Amazon river dolphin apart. Thriving in South American rivers and temporary lakes caused by seasonal flooding, this freshwater dolphin is sometimes shockingly pink.
Although born gray, males of the species are easily identified as they enter adulthood by a decisive pink shade.Their unusual coloring is believed to be the result of scar tissue from do lphin fights—whether playfighting or aserious bi d for a mate. The deeper the pink, the more attractive the males are believed to be, and the older the male, the more pink it will have.
There's also a theory that this color helps the dolphins more readily blend in with their surroundings. During heavy rains, rivers along the Amazon rainforest turn a pink shade, and with it male dolphins are harder to detect.The Amazon wetland system, fed by the Amazon River, is a crucial place for pink dolphins to breed, and since 2018 has been granted internationally protected status.
19.What does the passage say about pink dolphins?
20.What is the unusual coloring of pink dolphins believed to originate in?
21.What has become of the Amazon wetland system since 2018?
Passage Three
In a new Merrill Lynch/Age Wave survey, a full 70% of the early adults said they received financial supportfrom their parents in the past year and 58% said they couldn't afford their current lifestyles without it. The most common types of financial support include cell phone plans, food, school costs and car expenses. Parental financial support of early adults, said Ken Dychtwald, CEO of Age Wave, is“the new normal”.
But 64% of the young adults surveyed said parents' financial support to children age 25 to 34 is“a badthing”, because it makes those kids dependent. By contrast, only 29% thought supporting men and women age 18 to 24 is bad; the remaining 71% thought that assistance“helps the adult children get ahead”.
Dychtwald believes the young women and men surveyed were saying that by 25, younger adults ought to be financially independent.In fact, the respondents said, financial independence defines adulthood.“Financial independence is something they were struggling with and challenged by. And it scared them a bit,”Dychtwald said.One big reason they're struggling is attributed to college loans,of which the average amounts to $37,000. Many of the parents have taken on college loans for the kids,too, sometimes at the expense of their own finances. In the survey, 60% of early adults define financial success as being debt-free. Whether that's likely, or even possible, anytime soon, is anyone's guess.
22.What do we learn from a new survey by Merrill Lynch/Age Wave?
23.Why did most young adults in the survey say financial support to children aged 25 to 34 is a bad thing?
24.What did the respondents in the survey say regarding financial independence?
25.What is one big reason young adults are struggling?

解析：新闻中提到，过去的一些研究发现了出生季节与精神健康诊断之间的联系，故选项C为正确答案。选项A和B都是利用新闻中的细节信息设置的干扰项，新闻只提到了这些影响因素，但并未把出生季节和营养摄入、日晒的影响程度进行对比，故排除这两项。新闻中提到，老年人的焦虑和抑郁症状是由一项新研究进行调查的，而非过去的研究，故选项D可排除。
4.关于参与者的出生月份与抑郁症症状之间的关系，这项新研究发现了什么?
A)它是不明确的。
B)它是系统性的。
C)它是直接的。
D)它是微不足道的。
解析：新闻中提到，最近更多的研究表明，与出生月份相比，社会阶层或经济背景等因素与这些(精神健康)诊断有更大的关系。新闻结尾部分提到，总体而言，新研究发现，参与者的出生月份与他们的抑郁或焦虑症状之间不存在显著的关系(found no significant relationship)。言外之意, 二者之间有关系, 但是微不足道, 不足挂齿, 选项D中的insignificant与原文中的no significant含义一致, 故为答案。选项A具有一定的迷惑性，但要注意indefinite的含义是“不明确的，不清楚的”，如代入原文，指的是或许有关系，或许没有关系，这显然违背了原文的含义，故排除。新闻最后提到，一些国家的情况有所不同，但总体来说，没有发现系统性的模式，故排除B项“它是系统性的”。C项新闻中未提及，故排除。

A)大多数景点已经关闭。
B)官方露营地的使用受到限制。
