2．I'm a student in my fourth year of a biomedical science degree at Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen，but I also work 38 hours a week at Sainsbury's to make ends meet．I do three night shifts a week，plus overtime if I can get it．Monday is the most occupied day for me -- I work from 10 pm until 8 am on Saturday and Sunday nights，earning just over ￡100 a night，and then I have to be at my first lecture at 9 am on Monday．By the time I finish lectures，at 2 pm，I'm exhausted，but I know I have to be back at work by 10 pm．
I constantly have to force myself to stay awake，and to be alert，whatever it takes．A packet of Skittles and a Red Bull usually helps．The work I do at Sainsbury's is very physical like stacking shelves．I'm lucky because I'm an active person and the amount I lift at work is nothing compared with the weights I lift in the gym．I know I have the strength to bear it．
I'm originally from Nigeria．I came here when I was seven，growing up in Croydon，south London．Money was tight．My parents gave me everything I needed，but there was no money to spend on luxuries．I worked hard at school though and，with the help of GT Scholars，I got some of the best A-level grades in my class．
Unfortunately，though I had applied for "settled" British residential status when very young，the Home Office waited until I was in sixth form to approve my application．That meant I wasn'teligible for a student loan．The only way I could afford to go to university was that if I got a job that would pay for all my living costs and my parents，who work in market research，paid for my tuition fees．In Scotland，that's about ￡7，000 a year．
I don't have much time to socialize because of my job．Ideally，I would also like to have more time to study so I can excel at my course．Yes，I have a lot on my plate，but working hard isn't new to me．Growing up，my parents and my mentors in the church and at GT Scholars cultivated in me the importance of working hard for what I want in life．
My dream is to do an MA in physiotherapy next year and then get a job working for the NHS．But right now，I'm just focused on trying to get the best grades I can．Whenever I find life hard，I tell myself this is about my future．I don't need much，but I would like to worry less about money and have more free time．That is what I look forward to the most．
（1）Why does the author work long hours and sometimes overtime every week？
A．To help his parents pay off the debts．
B．To pay for his tuition fees．
C．To prove his ability to earn money．
D．To pay for his own living expenses．
（2）The underlined word "eligible" in the passage can be replaced by．
A．responsible
B．qualified
C．feasible
D．a(chǎn)nxious
（3）According to the passage，which of the following words can NOT be used to describe the author？

C．God helps those who help themselves．
D．Where there is life，there is hope．組卷：11引用：2難度：0.5 -
3． Scientists have recently developed a method to 3 D-print greener buildings using local soil that they say has the potential to revolutionize the construction industry.
Sarbajit Banerjee，a professor of chemistry and materials science and engineering at Texas A & M University，said 3 D printing was extensively used and allowed them to print entire architectural facades （正面），although getting such structures to meet existing building regulations remained a significant challenge.
Concrete remains the primary material used in many construction projects but it cannot be recycled and requires a lot of energy to mix and transport.The research team's aim is to print structures using the type of soil that can be found in any garden.
"While the widespread use of concrete has made housing accessible and enabled the growth of cities，this has come at a considerable environmental cost，" said Banerjee.
The move to 3 D-print concrete threatens to worsen this problem.However，we imagine a new example of construction that uses naturally sourced materials.Using such materials will further pave the way for building designs that are specifically adapted to the needs of the local climate.
What's more，the use of local materials would reduce the need to transport concrete long distances，further reducing the environmental impact of the buildings.
The research team's plan to replace concrete with the earth beneath our feet depends on their ability to improve the soil's ability to stand the weight of the whole house，to which Banerjee said "they are making excellent progress".
Once they have a clearer idea of the limits of the technology，Banerjee and his team plan to further investigate how it might allow for building on other planets.For instance，they have worked on addressing the problem of building all-weather roads in the subarctic （亞北極區(qū)）.They hope the technology could one day be used beyond Earth，to create settlements on the moon or even Mars.
（1）What's the latest development in construction？
A．Recycling concrete.
B．Reducing the construction cost.
C．3 D-printing buildings from local soil.
D．Changing the construction regulations.
（2）Which of the following is NOT an advantage of using naturally sourced materials？
A．It reduces the need of long-distance transportation of concrete.
B．It helps to design buildings adjusted to the local climate.
C．It contributes to the development of housing and cities.
D．It places less burden on the environment.
（3）If people replace concrete with the earth，what main factor needs to be considered？
A．The local climate.
B．The cost of transportation.
C．The environmental footprint.
D．The soil's weight-bearing ability.
（4）What is the last paragraph mainly about？
A．The prospect of further studies.
B．The explorations of the subarctic.
C．The limits of the new technology.
D．The barrier to building on other planets.組卷：2引用：2難度：0.3

I am a proud mother of three children，my last little one being delivered in the middle of this pandemic.She was born in August and her name is Aida.
Shortly after having Aida，my mother-in-law Ann showed me something she learned from her friend's mother in an art class she attended weekly.She had showed me how to knit（編織） a scarf.She showed me stitches（針） and gave me her half done project.
I spent a lot of time breastfeeding my sweet little girl，so I had some extra time to do something with my hands throughout the day.I enjoyed making the scarf so I purchased tons of yarn（線）since it was winter.I wanted to make scarves for my three children as Christmas gifts.
There was a new family that moved in down the street.The only daughter of the family was Jane，a shy girl，aged 14，the same age of my oldest son David.It seemed that she came from a financially disadvantaged family，for she always wore old clothes.Worse sill，in such cold days，she had no more clothes to wear and trembled with cold.
Due to the pandemic，society was thrown into crisis mode.Schools were closed，food supplies and deliveries were suspended and children were stuck at home.In such discouraging times，however，they became good companions，talking and playing at home or around the houses.
It was dreadfully cold this winter.Every time David came back from outside，with red face，he always cried，"Mum，it is freezing outside!" Then，he came over to see whether I finished the scarf.I could tell how impatient he was to wear my scarf sooner!I had to speed the project to satisfy his expectation.But David comforted me saying he could wait a few days.What a kind and considerate boy he was!Then my great art project finally was accomplished on the morning ahead of Christmas.
注意：
1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
2.請按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
I wrapped the scarf around David's neck._________
Later that day David came back saying Jane also deserved a scarf._________組卷：16引用：9難度：0.5
