16、or fun. When he tried the Irish accent, both he and his friend were amazed that his stutter almost vanished. They were able to have a long conversation without him stuttering at all, which had never happened before. He just couldnt believe that something so simple could be the cure for a problem tha

I had been to so many speech therapists who never suggested this technique,” Prosser said.Interestingly, Nick has never been to Ireland, but he believes that speaking in an Irish accent comes naturally for

18、him because of his mother, who comes from an Irish family. He suggests that people suffering from similar speech disorders try looking at their genealogies(家谱) and attempt to speak in an accent associated to them. However, local speech specialist Annette Stock said she had never heard about this tec

24、energy to others their boss, coworkers, clients, or kids. Now, they think, its time to finally focus on themselves, and thats true to an extent. But their post-work life still needs structure and purpose. Without these two key pillars(支柱) life can get boring and lonely very quickly.One very good way

25、 to fill the blank is to give time and energy to others through volunteering. Sure, they wont walk away with a pay check, but the simple act of volunteering their time to a cause comes with numerous other very important benefits.For retirees Ross and Carol Chenot, volunteering has made their golden

26、years incredibly fulfilling. Ross volunteers with Glean SLO, an organization affiliated(隶属于) with the local food bank. “Because we live in a rich agricultural area, Glean SLO (San Luis Obispo is where the SLO comes from) volunteers go into the fields or orchards after the harvesters have gone throug

27、h and they pick the leftover produce and donate to the food bank,” Carol explains. “Literally tons and tons of food get donated that way.”Carol put together a series of neighborhood “learning sessions”called Neighborly Uthrough which people can learn a new skill or hobby. The sessions range in topic

28、, and include computers, crafts, cooking, volunteerism, travel, recreation, entertainment, and self- improvement. So far, Carol says shes conducted 75 classes and has had more than 650 people register. “It reinforces a value of generosity that we want to pass down to others,” she says.28. What does

To have a walk.B. To attend kids.C. To volunteer.D. To work hard.30. Why does the passage mention Ross and

30、 Carol?A. Because volunteering has made their retirement years satisfying.B. Because they have spare time and energy to develop new skills.C. Because their efforts have paid off.D. Because they are both generous.31. What does the passage mainly tell us?A. Life can get boring and lonely very quickly.

31、B. The joy of volunteering in retirement years.C. A value of generosity passed down to others.D. Where to spend the golden retired years.D Plastics remain one of the most-used materials for making many things. Things made of plastics can be very strong and last a long time. Plastics are also much li

32、ghter than metal and can easily be formed into different shapes. Plastics can take hundreds of years to break down on their own. And very few kinds are highly recyclable.A team of researchers working at the US Department of Energy says it has created a kind of plastic that could lead to products tha

33、t are 100 percent recyclable. It recently reported the discovery in a study in the journal Nature Chemistry.The researchers say the new material is a plastic polymer(聚合体) called polydiketoenamine, or PDK. The team reports the material can be broken down in parts at the molecular(分子的) level. It can t

34、hen be built up again to form plastics of different shapes, textures and colors. The researchers say this process can be repeated over and over againwithout the plastic material losing any performance or quality.“Most plastics were never made to be recycled,” lead researcher Peter Christensen said i

35、n a statement. “But we have discovered a new way to assemble plastics that takes recycling into consideration from a molecular perspective.”Many plastics have different chemicals added to them to make them more useful and powerful. The problem is that these chemicals attach to the monomers(单体), whic

36、h remain in plastics even after the material gets processed at a recycling plant. The research team reported that, with the newly discovered PDK material, the monomers could be recovered and separated from any chemical additives.Next, the researchers plan to develop PDK plastics with a wide range of

37、 thermal and mechanical properties. These plastics could be used for many kinds of cloth, as well as things such as 3D printed materials and foams. In addition, the team is trying to include plant-based materials in the process.32. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. Plastics are never highl

38、y recyclable.B. Plastics are widely used in our lives.C. Plastics take hundreds of years to be broken down.D. Plastics have both advantages and disadvantages.33. What does the underlined word “It” in paragraph 3 refer to?A. The new material.B. The research team.C. The molecular level.D. The producin

39、g process.34. Why do many plastics have different chemicals added to them?A. To make them easy to break down.B. To make them easy to get processed.C. To make it possible for them to be recycled.D. To make them stronger and more widely used.35. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. PDK plastic

40、s will be soon put to good use.B. PDK plastics may have a promising prospect.C. The researchers are busy developing PDK plastics.D. Plant-based materials have been used in the new plastics.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 A birthday is always a special celebration. Its
