The Marches’ house was between two large houses. On one side there was an old brown house. On the other side there was a large stone house. The stone house was the home of old Mr Laurence and his grandson, Laurie. The rooms looked very comfortable behind the curtains (窗帘) at the windows. But it was a house without life. The Marches’ house was different. It was always busy and full of noise and people.
Laurie was standing at the window and looking down at their garden. Beth and Amy were playing in the snow. They were throwing snowballs and having a lot of fun. Laurie’s face was very sad.
“Poor boy!” Jo thought. “He’s all alone. He needs some friends.” She wanted to go and see him but how could she go to his house without an invitation?
She put on her hat and an old coat and took broom (扫帚) and a shovel (铲子) from the kitchen. “What are you going to do, Jo?” asked Meg when she saw her sister in the hall.
“I want to get some exercise,” answered Jo with a smile. “I’m going to clear the garden path.”
Laurie was standing at the window again. He wasn’t looking at her so she threw a snowball. When the snow hit the glass, he turned his head soon and a big smile changed his pale (苍白的) , sad face.
Jo laughed and shouted, “How are you? Are you ill?” Laurie opened the window and said, “I’m better now, thank you. I had a bad cold and I had to stay inside for a week.”

Cindy Soule is a teacher in Portland, Maine, an area known for very cold and snowy winters. But cold weather is not stopping Soule and her students from continuing with outdoor learning during COVID-19.
Besides online learning, schools across the U. S. also encourage outdoor learning to keep students and teachers safe and stop the spread (传播) of COVID-19. In Portland, they set up over 90 outdoor learning spaces across eight schools.
“The students seem to like the outdoor classroom. They’re begging me to go out,” said Soule. They study in usual classrooms for half the week. For the other half, they learn outdoors.
Adam Ali is one of Soule’s students. The 9-year-old boy noted some of the differences between outdoor learning and online learning.
“It’s a good thing because you can see the real thing,” Ali said. “We learn what is around us. It’s much better than online learning. We have Internet, but it’s just very slow. If anybody else in the house is on the Internet, it’s really hard to do things.”
For schools in Portland, the pandemic (流行病) has marked the first official use of outdoor learning. And they will keep it going even after the pandemic ends.
Soule said her students will never forget the pandemic’s difficulties. But she hoped studying in nature will be among their good memories of 2020.
“They’ re seeing the outdoors around them and learning. They love it. Students learn better when they re active,” Soule said. “They will remember that forever.”
57. What’s the main reason for schools in the U. S. encourage outdoor learning?
A. To push students to be active in class. B. To protect the teachers and students from COVID-19. C. To provide a special learning environment. D. To ask students to do outdoor activities. 58. According to Adam Ali, outdoor learning is ______ than online learning.
A. more direct B. more interesting C. more meaningful D. more boring 59. From the sixth paragraph, we can learn that schools in Portland will ______ .
A. set up more outdoor learning spaces B. stop online learning as soon as the pandemic ends
C. continue to make outdoor learning part of the school life D. provide students with more online learning experiences 60. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. The uncertain future of outdoor learning B. Time to say goodbye to indoor learning C. Outdoor learning continues in the cold D. Good memories brought by outdoor learning 五、任务型阅读 (共15小题, 计15分)

What exactly is the Amazon? It is the largest rainforest on the earth and it’s a thick forest that receives between 80 and 400 inches of rain a year.
Covering more than two million miles of land, the Amazon rainforest is described as the earth’s lungs (肺) . There are thousands of tree species, most of which grow to 80-100 feet tall. Trees and other plants take in carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) . Too much carbon dioxide in the air is bad for the earth. It acts like a blanket and traps some of the sun’s heat inside the earth’s atmosphere (大气) . This causes the earth to heat up. Trees help cool the whole earth. So forests like the Amazon are very important!
It’s a pity that thousands of fires happen in the Amazon. It is reported that there have been more than 90, 000 fires in the Amazon in the past two years. Most fires in the Amazon are because of deforestation (滥伐) . People cut down trees and burn them to clear land for farms. This isn’t new. The Amazon has been used for farming and natural resources (资源) for years. If people don’t stop cutting down trees, it could cause big problems. Millions of species would be in danger.
Protecting the forest is a must. Many people called on Brazil’s government to do more to stop people from cutting down the forest. And countries from around the world stepped in to help stop the fires. Some (61) ________ about the Amazon rainforest Weather Size Its (64) ________ It (62) ________ a lot in the thick forest.

I’m Alice. If you ask most girls about their favourite sport, they will probably say swimming or volleyball. I happen to be one of the few girls who will say surfing (冲浪) is my favourite. Most people think it’s a“boy sport\. But that’s certainly wrong.
I started surfing about five years ago. As a ten-year-old girl, I fell in love with the sport on the first day. Riding the first wave was the best feeling I had ever experienced. The coach said I was even braver than most of the boys.
Surfing is not like other sports. There’s really nothing like it. The feeling I get when I’m surfing across the water is like I’m weightless. It feels great.
Another thing I get from surfing is endless challenge (挑战) . You can never be the best surfer because no two waves are the same. There are so many different surfing styles.
I’ve tried to tell every girl I know to go for what they want, even if (即使) people think girls can’t do that thing. You are
