But actually (事实上), both groups have a lot to learn from each other.James Smith runs the Smith’s Care Home in my city. It is mainly an organization (机构) for serving the elderly. But not all of its visitors are old people. The home also includes a childcare center for pre-school kids. There is a playground in the care home, where the elderly can play with the kids. In this way, they can learn more about each other, and respect (尊重) and understand one another.I suppose this is quite an interesting idea. For one thing, we live in a world where there are more and more old people. The world is facing this problem and its population ages. It will be important for young people to be able to understand and care for the elderly in the coming years.Regretfully, my own grandparents weren’t around when I was little, as they had already passed away. I never got to learn what the world was like through their eyes, or what kinds of problems they might have faced when they were my age. To me, their lives will always be a mystery — hard to understand or explain.However, I think I can still learn from other people of older generations (辈). I might find some of their ideas out of date, and they might believe that my generation’s way of thinking is strange or incorrect. But we can still learn from each other anyway.31. What is special about the Smith’s Care Home A. It is only a childcare center actually.B. The elderly look after kids carefully there.C. It accepts both the elderly and pre-school kids.32.

To encourage different generations to learn from each other.C. To show that older generations’ ways of thinking are incorrect.第二节 (共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。每个选项仅使用一次。How to Improve Your ReadingLearning how to read well in English might not be an easy task.36Reading well in English is useful for many reasons, not only for taking tests. If you want to improve your reading in English, the following are just for you!Choose right reading materials (材料).There are so many choices! There are textbooks and graded readers, but there are also a lot more books you can read.37Here is a good rule to follow: choose reading materials where you understand at least 80% of the content (内容).Be intentional (意图明确的).Being intentional means doing something on purpose with a reason in mind. With reading, you need to be intentional by setting a reading aim. Decide on a certain number of pages you want to read each day.38To make sure your daily practice gets done, spare some time and put it in your study plan!39Reading can both introduce you to new vocabulary (词汇) and teach you how to use them. Many words in English are often used together in a consistent (相互连贯的) way. Reading groups of words, or words that go together, will help you better understand how to use your new vocabulary.Don’t try to understand everything.As you’re practicing your reading, you need to accept the fact that you might not understand every single word, and that’s OK! Your brain can’t learn so many new things at one time. It’s more important to get the big picture of what you are reading.40A. Read word groups. B. Don’t choose a book that is too easy or too difficult. C. You could also be intentional with planning a time to read. D. But it’s something you’ll have to do on your language learning journey. E. And you can go back to check the new things you don’t understand later.第三节 (共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分)阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。One day, a group of tourists from Australia climbed a large rock in the Central Park of New York City.
