17、en she was very young. Her mother studied to become a nurse and quickly increased the familys income. She later attended UC Berkeley. Komal was interested in becoming a naval doctor and was part of ROTC in college. She always wanted to serve her country. She didnt realize then that “serving” her cou

18、ntry would later become food-related. It was 2022, when Komal Ahmad, a senior in college at the time, walked past a young man on the street who was begging for food. She invited him to sit down for a meal. At the same time, a few feet away, the dining hall was throwing away pounds of delicious food.

19、 Witnessing this, Komal knew she was meant to do something about the situation. Komal started a student group that recovered food from campus and distributed it to local non-profit organizations. As rewarding as this was, something bothered her. One day, she got a call from the dining hall manager,

20、who had 500 sandwiches left over from an event. Komal needed to pick them up before they spoiled (变质). She rented a car, loaded it with the food, and called non-profit organizations. She found takers for only 25 sandwiches. Knowing it shouldnt be that hard to help people, she extended her rental res

21、ervations in order to push the sandwiches. Then the light bulb moment she was waiting for: what if there was an app that could pair people who had food with people who needed it? And thus, Copia was born. Companies use the app to report when they have leftover food. When charity agencies first regis

22、ter with Copia, they indicate how many people they need to feed, and on what days. The app distributes the leftover food, delivered by trained food handlers.25.

24、 take leftover food. D. The difficulty of finding food sources.28. What is stressed in the last paragraph? A. The creation of Copia. B. The influence of Copia. C. The way Copia functions. D. The development of Copia.C Have you ever been given something you dont like or doesnt fit, but you dont want

25、to hurt the feelings of the person who thinks about you? Youre not alone. Everyone has received an unwanted gift at least once in his or her life. That doesnt mean the item is bad or useless. It simply means that it doesnt work for you. If you find yourself with something nice but that doesnt fit in

26、to your lifestyle, consider regifting it. Before you do that, make sure you understand the manners of this practice that is more and more common as people find it difficult to make ends meet to a great extent. There are specific things you should do to an item. Failure to do any of them may create a

27、n awkward situation. You never have to lie about what you are doing, but you dont want to be in the position of having to explain anything. For example, remove the original wrapping paper and rewrap it in your own; make sure the box is in good condition so the item doesnt appear used; check the item

28、 and make sure there are no cards or names on the packaging; inspect the item and make sure it is in excellent condition. When you get ready for regifting, consider having a white elephant gift exchange for your next celebration. This removes all the embarrassment of being caught regifting because t

29、hats the whole purpose of the event. In order to prevent hurting feelings, provide everyone with a guest list and ask them not to bring anything given by the people on that list.29.

30、t. C. To ask for readers answers. D. To point out a wrong opinion.30. What most contributes to the growing regifting? A. Peoples lack of money. B. Peoples dislike of the gifts. C.

What do people exchange at a white elephant party? A. Guest lists. B. Regifting experiences. C. Regifting ideas. D. Unwanted gifts. D The Swedish A

32、cademy that awards the Nobel Prize has apparently still been unable to contact Bob Dylan about his acceptance of the honour. On Thursday, Dylan gave a concert in Las Vegas and didnt mention the fact that he had just won the worlds most honoured literary award. He didnt acknowledge it on Friday when

33、he performed in Coachella, either. In a recent interview with The Telegraph, he said that hed “absolutely” attend the ceremony “if its at all possible”, and he finally called the Academy to accept the prize though later he wrote a personal letter to the Academy, which said he would not receive the a

34、ward in person at the December ceremony in Stockholm. But what would happen if Dylan had continued to screen the Academys calls? Jean-Paul Sartre is the only known winner of the Nobel prize in Literature to have declined the award voluntarily; he had written a letter to the committee in 1964 asking

35、not to be considered at all, but these were the days before email, and the letter arrived when they had already decided to give it to him that year. Sartre believed every individual is responsible for creating a purpose for their life. By accepting the prize, Sartre would have to associate himself w

36、ith the institution that honoured him. “A writer must refuse to allow himself to be transformed into an institution (名流), even if it takes place in the most honourable form.” Other writers have declined it because they feared persecution (迫害). The Soviet writer Aleksandr Solzhenitayn did not travel

37、to Stockholm for his ceremony in 1970, because he was concerned that the Soviet Union would not allow him to return afterwards. The committee refused Solzhenitsyns request for a public ceremony at the Swedish Embassy in Moscow, so he initially turned down the prize, but formally accepted it in 1974

38、after he was exiled (放逐). But while it is possible to refuse to accept the prize money, it isnt possible to refuse the title. According to the statutes of the Nobel Foundation, Nobel Prizes cannot ever be returned. 33. Which word can replace the underlined word “screen” in Paragraph 1? A. Ignor. B.

39、Examine. C. Abuse. D. Blame.34. Why did Sartre refuse the Nobel Prize? A. To keep things unchanged. B. He thought ill of the prize. C. To avoid adding weight to his name. D. The committees letter arrived too late.35. What would be the possible result if Dylan refused the award? A. The prize money wo

40、uld belong to him. B. The award would be still listed in his name. C. He would be forced to attend the ceremony D. Someone else would accept the title instead.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。 Procrastination(拖延症) is the thief of time and a lot of students suffer from it
