1．One of the best ways to pay for college is to find work that helps foot part of the school fee.Here are 4 types of part-time jobs that provide students with extra income.
Jobs with employer scholarships
Some companies offer help paying for college through scholarship programs.Taco Bell，for instance，offers its part-time employees the chance to win up to a ＄25，000 award through its Live Mas Scholarship.The award can be used toward vocational schools or a two-or-four-year college.Employees must have worked for the company at least three continuous months.
Work-study
For years the work study program has allowed students to earn money through part-time work.Students aged between 16 and 24 who file Free Application for Student Aid maybe qualified for the program.While these jobs aren't always on campus，students in work study earn at least ＄7.25 per hour--the state minimum wage.
Paid internships
A paid internship（实习） can not only help students pay for college but can also open doors for full time work after graduation.According to a 2019 survey by the National Association of Colleges and Employers，nearly two-thirds of paid interns received a job offer，while just about 44% of unpaid interns were offered a job.
On-demand economy jobs

2．Christine Gale Reynolds worked at the public library in Yosemite National Park.When the government issued shutdown orders to slow the spread of the coronavirus（冠状病毒），she loaded the back of her car with donated books and began her own mobile library."I know this may not be conventional，and yet it has worked and I feel of use，" she said.
Across the United States，volunteers are reporting a jump in little free libraries as readers read books to pass the time.Made of wood or brick，and placed in front of parks or in the trunk of a car，the libraries have seen their small spaces filled with books.
Around 1，000 people live in the Yosemite Valley，where entertainment options are limited and some residents say Christine Gale Reynolds' mobile library and her friendly chats offer a needed break."I live in a rural area，so the Internet is not a guarantee.The time that some people might fill with online services is not an option for me.I turn to books to fill that gap，" said Connor Timpone，who lives in the east of Yosemite Valley."Books have been a bright spot for me."
"The spaces also have provided a new purpose.Readers are leaving canned goods and other needed items to assist fellow neighbors.The libraries allow neighbors to help one another without getting physically close，" said Greig Metzger，director of the nonprofit Little Free Library.
Since 2009，tens of thousands of little free libraries have sprung up in the United States and more than 100 countries.The small spaces operate by donations and through volunteers.Volunteers check the free libraries weekly，and the selection is always different from the week before.Though the work takes much effort and time，it is rewarding.

3．We're so attached to plastic，but we're careless consumers.Waste plastic is entering our ecosystems and food chains with untold consequences.Cleaning up our polluted world of plastic may seem a noble，but thankless task.However，some people are seeing economic opportunity in the mission.
Plastic Bank，a social enterprise from Canada，is monetizing plastic recycling while empowering those most affected by the waste.It works to prevent waste plastic from entering oceans by encouraging people in developing countries to collect plastic from their communities in exchange for cash，food，clean water or school tuition for their children.After collection，plastic is weighed，sorted，chipped，melted into balls and sold on as "raw material" to be made into everything from bottles for cleaning products to clothing.
"I saw in large quantities；I saw an opportunity，" CEO David Katz told the audience at the Sustainable Brands Oceans conference in Porto，Portugal on November 14."We reveal the value in this material，" he added.
Plastic Bank was founded in 2013 and launched on the ground operations in 2014 in Haiti，the poorest country in the Western，Hemisphere，where close to 60% of the population live under the poverty line.As result of poor waste disposal and recycling infrastructure（基础设施），plastic waste enters rivers or is burned and poses the health threats to the local residents.
The company says I has over 2，000 collectors working in the country，with its full-time collectors on average 63% above the poverty line thanks to the income they make from the project.Through its app based payment system，many collectors now have bank accounts for the first time，and are able to ultimately escape ultra poverty.
"Nothing we're doing is against the laws of physics，" said Katz. "All the technology exists for us to solve and save the world.It's only creative thought."
（1）What is Plastic Bank aimed to do？
A．Test out creative ideas.
B．Discover new material.
C．Promote plastic recycling.
D．Stop people using plastic.
（2）Which of the following shows the process of monetizing in Paragraph 2？
A．Purchasing-collecting-recycling.
B．Exchanging collecting-purchasing.
C．Collecting-exchanging-reproducing.
D．Persuading consuming-reproducing.
（3）What do the numbers in Paragraph 5 indicate？
A．Haiti attaches great importance to recycling.
B．Many locals benefit greatly from the project.
C．Collecting is an efficient way to recycle waste.
D．The project has solved unemployment in Haiti.
（4）What maybe the best title for the text？
A．Companies stand to ban plastic consumption
B．Technology finds its way to kick off poverty
C．David Katz speaks at the conference in Porto
D．Plastic Bank is fighting against plastic waste组卷：0引用：1难度：0.6 -
4．They're life jacket orange，they re robots and they're capable of sailing the high seas without human intervention.
On Tuesday the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration（NOAA） launched a pair of Saildrones（海洋无人机） in Pacific Northwest waters for the first time.Their summer long sailing journey will stretch from Vancouver Island to California.The Saildrone operators will collect data to help set future fishing seasons.The government wants tor see whether seagoing.jye.ai can extend fishery surveys now performed by expensive manned ships.
Nora Cohen from NOAA said，"The 23 foot tong seagoing robots can follow a remotely programmed course for up to a year at a time.And they don't require any fuel.We use wind and solar power to drive the sensors." He added，"It means that we're able to go to places where we don't really want to send people，and go into weather that we really don't want anyone ever to be in，and be able to send back measurements."
The primary mission is to investigate the species and number of fish in existence and the places where they are.Larry Hufnagle，scientist of NOAA Fisheries in Seattle，said a traditional big NOAA research ship-based survey costs around ﹩25，000 per day.By comparison，one Saildrone runs ﹩2，500 per day.
"It could be a significant saving，" Hufnagle said. "But like anything else，there is a tradeoff in what you get and what you don't get.On the manned ship，we have limited time.It takes a lot of people.We spend a fair amount of money.But there is one thing the Saildrone can't do that humans can：cast a net to catch and positively identify the fish detected below.The Saildrones are going to give us additional data，not replacement data."
Nora Cohen said Sail Drone，a venture capital-backed company based in Alameda，California，expects to launch a total of 11 of its seagoing robots to survey different water bodies for NOAA this year.The Bering and Arctic seas，coastal California and Gulf of Mexico will be the locations of additional missions.
（1）What is the purpose of collecting fish data？
A．To explore the ocean.
B．To assist fishing industry.
C．To learn the habits of fish.
D．To improve fishing skills.
（2）What is mainly discussed about the Saildrone in Paragraph 3？
A．Its advantages.
B．Its appearance.
C．Its power systems.
D．Its primary mission.
（3）What does the underlined word "tradeoff" in Paragraph 5 probably mean？
A．Debate.
B．Reason.
C．Reality.
D．Balance.
（4）What can be inferred from the text？
A．The Saildrone has a promising future.
B．Hufnagle thinks little of the Saildrone.
C．Manned ships will be completely replaced.
D．Production of seagoing robots is restricted.组卷：0引用：1难度：0.6

5．"Some kids are naturally more competitive than others，" says professional adviser Roseann Clay.But certain factors play into the behavior of kids to make them want to win at everything.
One factor is that kids are becoming aware of what others think of them.Winning games and getting those top grades is a way to get loads of attention.（1）When kids have a genuine fear of losing，this can drive them to be more competitive.And when they lose，bad emotions usually follow.How can parents deal with kids who get angry or upset when they don't win all the time？
（2）Roseann suggests that parents make a point of showing how they handle losing well，while still having fun.And before any competitive activity or game，make sure everyone knows what the rules and expected behaviors are.This helps a child shift from an "I'm only good if I win" attitude to "I'm having fun" attitude.
If a child is pushed to be too competitive and care about winning above all else，their emotional well-being is put at risk.The knock-on effect is that their confidence remains low.（3）
Also，some children's anxiety causes them to be afraid of competition.
（4）They should to open up conversation and focus on the feelings of kids and not their behaviors.
（5）We can help them celebrate and enjoy all the small steps it took to get there，and encourage a more positive outlook and healthy competition.This will serve!them throughout life as they manage stress.
A.Not all kids want to win.
B.Kids can still celebrate a win.
C.Parents shouldn't push these kids.
D.Insecurity can also be a factor here.
E.Insecure children want to win everything.
F.This can really rock a developing child's emotional core.
G.Children can learn to manage their emotions with role modeling.组卷：0引用：1难度：0.5

It was summer，and my dad wanted to treat me to a vacation like never before.He decided to take me on a trip to the Wild West.
We took a plane to Albuquerque，a big city in the state of New Mexico.We reached Albuquerque in the late afternoon.Uncle Paul，my dad's friend，picked us up from the airport and drove us up to his farm in Pecos.
His wife Tina cooked us a delicious dinner and we got to know his sons Ryan and Kyle.My dad and I spent the night in the guestroom of the farm house listening to the frogs and water rolling down the river nearby.Very early in the morning，Uncle Paul woke us up to have breakfast. "The day starts at dawn on my farm，" he said.After breakfast，I went to help Aunt Tina feed the chickens，while my dad went with Uncle Paul to take the sheep out to graze（吃草）.I was impressed to see my dad and Uncle Paul riding horses.They looked really cool.
In the afternoon，I asked Uncle Paul if I could take a horse ride，and he said yes，as long as my dad went with me.I wasn't going to take a horse ride by myself anyway.So，my dad and I put on our new cowboy hats，got on our horses，and headed slowly towards the mountains. "Don't be late for supper，" Uncle Paul cried，"and keep to the track so that you don't get lost "OK!" my dad cried back.After a while Uncle Paul and his farm house were out of sight.It was so peaceful and quiet and the colors of the brown rocks，the deep green pine trees，and the late afternoon sun mixed to create a magic scene.It looked like a beautiful woven （编织的） blanket spread out upon the ground just for us.
