She had three kids under age 7, and was barely keeping up payments on her small two-bedroom home by working extra hours as a waitress. “There were times when I would lie in bed and think, I don’t know how I’m going to pay that bill,” Mangano says.‎ But he had a special ability for seeing the obvious thing. She knew how hard it was to mop the floor. “I was tired of bending down, putting my hands in dirty water, wringing (拧) out a mop,” Mangano says. “So, There’ s gotta be a better way.‎ How about a “self-wringing” mop? She designed a special tool you could twist in two directions at once, and still keep your hands clean and dry. She set out to sell it, first a few at flea markers.‎ Then Mangano met with the media. But would couch potatoes (电视迷）buy a mop? The experts on shopping TV were less than certain. They gave it a try, and it failed. Mangano was sure it would sell if they’d let her do the on-camera display. She said, “Get me on that stage, and I will sell this mop because it’s a great item.”‎ So QVC, a multinational corporation specializing in televised home shopping, took a chance on her. “ I got onstage and the phones went crazy. We sold every mop in minutes.”‎ Today she’s president of Ingenious Designs, a multimillion-dollar company, and one of the stars of HSN, the Home Shopping Network.

Mangano got the idea of self-wringing mop from her own experience.‎ D. Mangano once had to work seven days a week to support her family.‎ C Zew Zealand’s government is hoping to make the nation greener by planting 100 million trees each year, ensuring the electricity grid（电网） runs entirely from renewable energy, and spending more money on cycle ways and rail transport. The government’s plan is to reduce its net greenhouse gas emission to zero by the year 2050.‎ Zew Zealand’s prime minister Jacinda Ardern has set ambitious environmental policies to confront a warming planet. “We will absolutely focus on the challenge of climate change,” said Ardern. “That will include a zero carbon government policy. That will include an independent climate commission. That will include making sure that we have an all gases, all sectors emissions trading scheme,” she added. According to the Associated Press (AP), Arden said the goal of doubling the amount of trees the country plants each year is “absolutely achievable.”]‎ Not everybody is happy with the plans. Many farmers are worried they will be required to pay more if they are absorbed into an emissions trading plan. “There is concern that if this should happen, New Zealand will become less competitive with other food-producing nations.” said Katie Milne, the president of Federated Farmers.‎ More than 80 percent of Zew Zealand’s electricity already comes from renewable resources. The AP reported that Ardern wants to increase it to 100 percent by 2035, in part by investing more in ‎ solar, which currently takes up only 0.1 percent of the country’s total renewable energy slice.‎ ‎28.

Most of the country’s electricity will come from fossil fuel.‎ ‎ C. Cycle ways and rail transportation will get more fund from the government.‎ ‎ D.

Which column can we read the passage in the newspaper?‎ ‎ A. Environment B. Entertainment C. Health D. Technology D Careers in zoology are extremely varied and unique, and can provide incredible learning and work opportunities for anyone devoted to animal studies and welfare. Zoology, or the study of animals, is a wide field with many specialties, including research, conservation, veterinary (兽医的) medicine, and the care of animals. For people with a love of animals and some training, dreams of careers in zoology may come true. ‎ Some careers in zoology focus on research and scientific studies. These careers may allow those with a good theoretical science background to develop and run studies that improve human understanding of the animal world. Research in zoology can help create safer and more effective products for animals or can teach humans more about animal behavior in order to aid in conservation, breeding programs, and habitat preservation. ‎ Careers in zoology that focus on conservation attach great importance to the continued survival and increased protection of animal species. Conservationists may work with political groups or governments to help make laws to protect and preserve animals, or may work in the field gathering information on potential threats to the health of global ecosystems. Some conservationists work i n educational fields, trying to improve human efforts to save animals from extinction. ‎ Animals are subject to illness and injury, and some careers in zoology help to create a safe, stable animal population. Veterinary medicine is an important specialty field, and may take several years of intensive training to qualify as a certified veterinarian. While many veterinarians focus on the small-animal practice of domestic pets, vets in rural areas often work with large farm animals and more adventurous veterinarians may work with exotic species in zoos and wildlife preserves. . ‎ Humans love to observe animals, and modern-day zoos and wildlife preserves help meet that interest while providing facilities to assist with conservation programs. Zoology careers in zoos can range from overseeing breeding programs, to creating the proper diet for a deer, to cleaning the tiger’s cage. Many volunteer and entry-level jobs are available for people that love animals. ‎ ‎32. What is the purpose of researching on animals in zoology?‎ ‎ A. To help governments make laws. ‎ B. To improve researchers’ scientific knowledge. ‎ ‎ C. To create safe and effective products for humans. ‎ ‎ D. To educate people to protect animals. ‎ ‎33. What can careers in zoology that focus on veterinary medicine help? ‎ ‎ A. Better understand animals. B. Protect animals’ health. ‎ C. Clean the animals’ cages. D. Increase the number of animals.‎ ‎34. Which of the following shows the structure of the whole passage?‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ (P1=paragraph 1; P2= paragraph 2; P3= paragraph 3; P4= paragraph 1; P5= paragraph 5;)‎ ‎35. What does the passage mainly present?‎ ‎ A. Volunteers’ passion for zoology. B. A new idea of careers in zoology. ‎ ‎ C. Different types of careers in zoology. D. Effective measures of animal protection. ‎ ‎ 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。‎ The UN has recognized the contributions of volunteers on Dec.5, International Volunteer Day. Here, the four things are offered to consider before taking the leap into overseas volunteering.‎ Choose your organization carefully ‎ 36 volunteering may be a fundraising mechanism(筹资机制) for a development project. For others, volunteering is fundamental to their programs, and those serving take on professional roles in longer-term development.‎ ‎ 37 ‎ Volunteers want to help and make a difference, but most know this isn’t a purely selfless act.
