Peter, 60, loved his job as a bus driver. He had been one almost all his life, loving the company of the little children who rode his bus daily. It made him feel younger and more energetic. His record was clean, without one accident or mishap (小事故) during his tenure (任期), which made him a trustworthy driver.
However, Mr. Clark, Peter’s boss, was concerned and thought that it was time for him to retire. “You don’t have a choice here, Peter, ” he said seriously. “We don’t want to invite any risk to the children who take your bus every day. We need a replacement at this stage. ”
“But I have a perfect record, ” argued Peter. “You know, for an elderly man like me, my job is the only thing that keeps me alive. I want to keep my job. ”
“Would you take responsibility if something bad happened to those children ” Mr. Clark said.
Peter thought it over, and very reluctantly, he gave in to Mr. Clark’s request. Peter decided to retire a week later.
His retirement day approached pretty soon. The day before his last day, Peter was dropping off the kids at his first stop when he looked out of the window and saw a lady on the road who had fainted (昏厥). He asked the kids not to leave the bus and got down to help the woman.
Just when he finished, he heard screams behind him. The children were looking out of the window and screaming, “Fire!Fire!Help!” “How could that have happened ” Peter was shaking in fear. With trembling hands, Peter dialed 911 and rushed to help the children. Peter covered himself with his jacket and burst into the flaming bus. He took the children out of the burning bus one by one. Thankfully, the firefighters arrived soon and helped Peter, saving all students.
The next day, Peter saw the entire school gathered in front of his home. When Peter approached them, Mr. Clark started clapping and everyone joined him. “You are a hero, Peter! You saved the lives of those young children, ” he said. “You are the best driver. We hope you can keep the job!”
24. What made Mr. Clark concerned
A. He couldn’t persuade Peter to retire. B. Taking school bus was unsafe for children.
C. Peter was too old to be a school bus driver. D. The school bus driver must be changed regularly.
25. What does the underlined “reluctantly” mean in Paragraph 5
A. Angrily. B. Unwillingly. C. Doubtfully D. Hesitantly.
26. Why were the children screaming

C. They were frightened by the woman. D. They didn’t want a new school bus driver.

Sending a package back is not easy. Repacking, printing labels and shipping it back up to the seller is an increasingly familiar experience for online shoppers. In America 21%of online orders, worth some $218bn, were returned in 2021, according to the National Retail Federation, up from 18%in 2020. For clothing and shoes it can reach around 40%.
The problem has its roots in the birth of e-commerce. To compete with bricks-and-mortar (实体的) sellers and make consumers comfortable with ordering online, e-commerce firms offered free returns. Consumers came to expect it.
Each step of the process is costly. Retailers have to pay for goods to be picked up or posted. Processing returns is labor-intensive (劳动密集型), explains Zac Rogers who worked as a returns manager at Amazon. A return must be opened and someone has to decide what to do with it. “A worker in an Amazon warehouse can pick 30 items in a minute, but a return can take ten minutes to process, ” says Mr. Rogers.
Once processed, only 5% of the returned goods can be resold immediately by retailers. Most go to liquidators at the lowest prices or are thrown away.
One solution involves adding friction (阻力). Last year, a Japanese fashion brand became one of the first retailers to charge a small fee for posted returns. Other firms are selling more refurbished (翻新的) goods as a way to cut losses.
Startups are getting in on the action. Using artificial intelligence to help retailers decide what to do with the returned goods is the brainchild of them. Happy Returns, another startup, helps with logistics (物流). It has 5, 000 drop-off points for returns across America, mostly in chain stores. The returns are collected and sent back to retailers all at once, saving up to 40% of postage costs.
Some are experimenting with virtual reality (VR). Over half of the items are returned because they are the wrong size. In June Walmart said it would buy Memomi, an augmented-reality (AR) startup that lets shoppers virtually try on glasses in real-time for a seamless, easy and fun omnichannel experience. Walmart also offers ways to try on clothes and arrange furniture in rooms using AR.
28. Why did e-commerce firms offer free returns at first
A. To cut costs. B. To develop logistics service.
C. To compete with physical stores. D. To show the advantage of shopping online.
29. Which of the following best describes the processing of returns
A. Efficient. B. Automatic C. Expensive. D. Time-consuming.
30. How did the Japanese company tackle the return problem
A. By charging a fee. B. By raising the price of goods.
C. By selling more returned goods. D. By using advanced technologies.
31. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Walmart has pioneered the use of AR. B. Technology plays a role in reducing returns.
C. VR and AR will be used in more industries. D. Cooperation among companies is important.

Huang Danian, the well-known Chinese geophysicist, was born in 1958 in Guangxi, China. As a keen and able student, Huang went to the UK in 1993 to further his studies.
By the time Huang moved back to China in 2009, he had been living and working in the UK for many years. He had a good job and a life there, but he gave it all up to return to home driven by the idea that he needed to contribute to his country. As one of the world’s leading experts in deep-Earth exploration technology, Huang was invited to participate in the “Thousand Talent” programme. He took up a position at Jilin University, Changchun.
Huang was named lead scientist of a branch of China’s largest deep-Earth exploration programme, developing advanced cameras that can see through the Earth’s crust (地壳) so that it can be analysed without having to dig into it. He set up an advanced lab, sometimes paying for equipment with his own money. Some described him as a “lunatic (疯子)”, but this passion and drive enabled Huang to push forward China’s deep-Earth exploration technology into a world-leading position. Huang’s devotion contributed to China’s lunar probe (月球探测器) Chang’e 3 being landed on the moon in 2013 and the launch of the spacecraft Shenzhou-11 and Tiangong-2 in 2016.
Huang’s health also paid the price for his commitment to his work. He began having fits (昏厥) in 2012, but paid little attention to then, stating he did not have time to go to see a doctor—his work always came first. In November 2016, Huang fainted and was taken to hospital, where he was diagnosed with cancer. The disease was so advanced that he had just a couple of months to live.
Huang never gave up, and always tried to push forward. Even from his hospital bed, he continued his work, writing references for his colleagues and replying to questions from his students. Huang died in January 2017, aged just 58. More than 800 people attended his funeral to celebrate a life that burned so bright, but was so short.
32. Huang returned to China in 2009 because ________.
A. he desired to devote himself to his motherland B. the “Thousand Talent” program attracted him
C. Jilin University offered him a top position D. he wasn’t satisfied with the life in the UK
33. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. China’s aerospace development. B. Huang’s working attitude and style.
C. Huang’s great contributions to China. D. China’s deep-Earth exploration technology.
34. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs
A. The working environment caused Huang’s disease.
B. Huang worked continuously despite his poor health.
C. Huang was taken to hospital after he fainted in 2012.
D. A large sun of money was paid to treat Huang’s illness.
35. Which of the following can be used to describe Huang Danian
A. Generous and honest. B. Passionate and patient.
C. Modest and courageous. D. Patriotic (爱国的) and devoted.
