AWhen I was in junior high school, I was really a bad boy. My history teacher —Mr Oven criticized me a lot because I was naughty in his class. By the end of the first semester, I’d had enough of his words and had decided that I would get my revenge on him.The opportunity arose one morning when Mr. Oven was called to the office for a certain reason. While Mr. Oven left, my company Billy and I grabbed Mr. Oven’s lunch bag from under his desk. I opened his sandwich and placed a bug in between the two slices of bread. We put it back and closed it. To keep it in memory, Billy took photos of the whole process. We laughed for weeks over this.Well, it all went south during Thanksgiving break. Billy’s Mother found the pictures in his room, and demanded that he should tell her where these pictures were from. Billy told his mother the whole story, and Mr. Oven was informed. Not only was I punished from school for two weeks, but also I was kicked off the football and basketball team. Before I could return to school, I had to turn in a 1000-word essay on what I did and why I did that.

The well was only eight inches across and a rock always covered it. But children had moved the rock. When Jessica fell, she fell right into the well.Jessica’s mother reached inside the well, but she couldn’t feel Jessica. She dialed 911 for help. Men from the fire department arrived. They discovered that Jessica was about 20 feet down in the well. For the next hour the men talked and planned Jessica’s rescue.“We can’t go down into the well,〞they said.“It’s too narrow. So, we’re going to drill a hole next to the well. Then we’ll drill a tunnel across to Jessica. When we reach her, we’ll bring her through the tunnel and up through our hole.〞The men began to drill the hole at 11 a.m. on Wednesday, October 14, 1987. The men had a difficult job; they were drilling through solid rock. During her days in the well, Jessica sometimes asked for her mother.

Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame(责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault.Have you ever found that some people can't read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to havea good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering.12. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Your arms or your legs will become weak when you use them.B. Your memory works in the same way as your arms and legs.C. Everybody knows that memory works in the same way as their arms and legs.D. Your memory can't become strong again when you use them again.13. One has a bad memory because of _________.A. his teachers' faultB. his parents' faultC. his own faultD. his strong arms and legs14. Many people who can't read and write can remember things wellbecause_________.A. they have to rememberB. they can't write them downC. they are good at rememberingD. they can remember things quickly15.

But if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes (输输) of each Chinese character when writing on paper. Experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. And computer dependence is more wide-spread among university students. Almost all their assignments and essays are typed on a computer.All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer.It’s faster and easier to correct if using a computer. And that’s why computers are being applied more and more often to modern education.“When I’m writing with a pen, I find I often can’t remember how to write a character, though I feel I’m familiar with it.”“I’m not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper.”Many students don’t feel this is something to worry about. Now that it’s more convenient and efficient to write on a computer, why bother to handwrite?Many educators think differently. Shi Liwei, the headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital, said, “Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic (输输输) value. But those characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value. All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. And handwriting contains the writer’s emotion. Through one’s handwriting, people can get to know one’s thinking and personality. Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them. ”To encourage students to handwrite more, many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory (输输输) and in universities, some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand.(1)Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A.To Type or to HandwriteB.The Importance of Handwriting and TypingC.Writing by Computer Will Replace Writing by HandD.Practical and Aesthetic V alue of Chinese Characters(2)The students interviewed prefer to write using a computer mainly because ______.A.they are usually asked to e-mail their homework and essaysB.they find it not easy to remember how to write a characterC.they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and convenientlyputers have become a trend and fashion in China(3)Which of the following statements is NOT true about advantages of handwriting?A.Handwriting contains the writer’s emotion.B.Handwriting can impress people well and build their self-confidence.C.The writer’s thinking and personality are shown in his or her handwriting.D.Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value.(4)We can draw the conclusion from the passage that ______.A.more and more students will give up writing on a computerB.writing by hand will give way to typing by computer one dayC.the typing article better expresses one’s feelings and qualityD.more and more students will pay attention to handwriting3.(10分)The record heavy rainfall in Zhengzhou, capital of Henan province, which has seriously threatened dams and caused flood warnings for several rivers in the city, has left 12 people dead and forced about 100,000 to be displaced(转移), the provincial information office said on Wednesday.The heavy rain across Henan, one of the most populated provinces with 94 million people, began on Saturday, with Zhengzhou being one of the hardest-hit areas.The severe rain in the city is expected to last until Wednesday night.About 20.2 centimeters of rainfall hit Zhengzhou in just one hour since 4 pm on Tuesday, exceeding China’s record for hourly rainfall in inland areas.Also, between 6 pm on Saturday and midnight Wednesday, five weather stations in the city logged record rainfall amountswhile 61.7 cm of rain had drenched (浸透) Zhengzhou— almost equal to the annual average of 64.1 cm, the local meteorological bureau reported.Around 6 pm Tuesday, floodwater rushed into a section of the tunnel of the city’s subway line, trapping passengers inside in waist-high water.A total of 500 people had been evacuated (疏散), and 12 people died.All subways in the city have stopped running.Meanwhile, Zhengzhou’s flood control headquarters said on Wednesday that water storage at Guojiazui Reservoir was at “major risk” of dam failure.People in high risk areas have been warned and started to evacuate.The water levels of other dams in the city have also exceeded the flood warning level.The Central Theater of People’s Liberation Army said on Wednesday morning that it has sent more than 3,000 men and 80 sets of equipment to fight the floods and carry out rescue work in the city as its emergency response level for floods has been raised to level 1.Other parts of Henan were also hit by heavy rain and record rainfall has been reported in several areas.At 3 am on Wednesday, the province’s emergency response level for floods has also been raised to level 1 from level 2.What’s more, the water levels of 32 dams have breached (突破) the flood warning level.In the city of Luoyang, local authorities said the rainfall had caused a 20 meter breach in the Yihetan Dam, and that the dam “could fall down at any time”.1.How did the 12 people lose their lives?A.They were washed away by the floodwater near the subway.B.Floodwater rushed into their houses and they were drowned.C.Floodwater rushed into the tunnel of the city’s subway line.D.The buses were tapped in the floodwater and they couldn’t get out.2.What does the underlined word “exceeding” in Para.3 mean?A.Falling behind.B.Leading to.C.Getting through.D.Going beyond.3.When did the Central Theater of People’s Liberation Amy send more than 3,000 men to Zhengzhou?A.When the water levels of 32 dams breached the flood warning level.B.When its emergency response level for floods was raised to level 1.C.After 20.2 centimeters of rainfall hit Zhengzhou in just one hour.D.After all subways in Zhengzhou were affected by the floodwater.4.What can be the best title for the news report?A.Record rainfall in Zhengzhou threatens damsB.People in Henan in high risk areas start to evacuateC.12 dead, 100,000 displaced after record rainfall in HenanD.Heavy rainfall causes flood warnings for rivers in Zhengzhou4.(10分)The outbreak of the novel corona virus pneumonia (NCP) has disrupted the lives and work of nearly every Chinese person. However, a new trend has been on the rise: many have turned themselves into live streaming (直播)users or followers.According to Questmobile, a professional big data intelligence services provider in China, the audience for Douyin, Kuaishou and other live streaming platforms surged to 574 million during the Spring Festival holiday, up 35 percent from 2019.Confined at home, away from their friends and loved ones, people turn to live streaming to reach out to the world. For them live streaming can help them share their lives and interest with a global audience, which will give them the sense of being “in the moment”. Even as viewers, they can also engage immediately with live streamers by commenting and making suggestions.“When I comment on the live streaming videos, I’m not simply an audience member, but also an active part of the program. That gives me a sense of engagement,” an Internet user named Wang Hao told People’s Daily.Live streaming is not only for fun, but also a new tool for many businesses. Affected by the pandemic, many businesses had to stop their sales in physical stores. To meet their business goals and survive during these trying times, many chose to live stream to revive their businesses.Joyoung, a leading maker of small kitchen appliances, is a good example. The company not only added a number of broadcasts each day to advertise their products, but also shared the menus that were beneficial to health. “The responses to our live streaming shows have been well beyond expectations,” Kang Li, who oversees the company’s live streaming unit, told China daily. “It’s a natural opportunity to truly bond with our followers.”Like it or not, live streaming is likely to go mainstream in China for both entertainment and business.1.What is the purpose of writing the second paragraph?A.To introduce some popular live streaming platforms in China.B.To report data on the development of live streaming in 2019.C.To show that Chinese people spend too much time on live streaming apps.D.To prove that live streaming are becoming increasingly popular in China.2.What does Wang Hao think of commenting on live streaming?A.It is boring to make comments.B.It is the only way to share viewers’ lives.C.It makes people feel involved in the stream.D.It helps live streamers improve themselves.3.What do paragraphs 5&6 mainly talk about?A.Live streaming replaced physical stores in many areas.B.Many businesses turned to live streaming platform for marketing.C.Live streaming platforms faced challenges during the pandemic.D.Live streaming platforms made changes to their services.4.How does the author feel about the future of live streaming?A.Positive.B.Uncertain.C.Disappointed.D.Confused.二、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分12.5分)5.(12.5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。

In Greece there are the ruins(废墟) of a water system(系统) for baths built over 3,000years ago. The Romans had warm public baths. In some baths, as many as 3,000 personscould bathe at the same time.Treating disease by taking bathing has been popular for centuries. Modern medical bathing first became popular in Europe and by the late 1700’s , it has also become popular in the United States.For many years, frequent(经常的) b athing was believed to be bad for one’s health. Ordinary bathing just to keep clean was avoided(防止), and perfume was often used to cover up body smells!By the 1700’s doctors began to say that soap and water were good for health. They believed that it was good for people to be clean. Slowly, people began to bathe more frequently. During the Victorian Age of the late 19th century, taking a bath on Saturday night became common.In the United States ordinary bathing was slow to become popular. During the 18th and early 19th centuries, many Americans were known as “The Great Unwashed!〞In one American city , for example, a person was only allowed to take a bathe every thirty days! That was a law!Frequency of bathing today is partly a matter of habit. People know that bathing for cleanliness is important to health, Doctors know that dirty bodies increase the chance of diseases. As a result, in the United States, people generally bathe often. Some people bath once a day at least. They consider a daily bath essential (=necessary) to good health.41. Dirty bodies can ______ .A. ruin one’s businessB. cause diseaseC. drive customers awayD. cause good health42. In the 18th century doctors believed that being clean was _______ .A. unimportantB. good for healthC. harmfulD. popular43. The underlined word perfume probably means _______.A. a sweet smelling substanceB. good healthC. a strange smelling substanceD. large wealthBMalls are popular places for Americans to go. Some people spend so much time at malls that they are called mall rats. Mall rats shop until they drop in the hundreds of stores under one roof.People like malls for many reasons. They feel safe because malls have police stations or private security(平安) guards. Parking is usually free, and the weather inside is always fine. The newest malls have beautiful rest area with waterfalls and large green trees.The largest mall in the United States is the Mall of America in Minnesota. It covers 4.2 million square feet. It has 350 stores, eight night clubs, and a seven-acre(公顷) park! There are parking spaces for 12, 750 cars. About 750, 000 people shop every week.The first indoor mall in the United States was built in 1965 in Edina, Minnesota. People loved doing all their shopping in one place. More malls were built all overthe country. Now, malls are like town centers where people come to do many things. They shop, of course. They also eat in food houses that have food from all over the world. They see movies at theatres. Some people even get their daily exercise by doing the new sport of mall walking. Others go to malls to meet friends.In some malls, people can see a doctor or a dentist(牙医) and even attend church. In other words, people can do just about everything in malls. Now residents(居民) can actually live in their favorite shopping center.44. Malls are ________.A. popular places for Americans to goB. large parks with shopsC. places where people go to eat foodD. places where people go to seea doctor45. Why have malls become so popular?A. Because people can do everything there.B. Because people can do many other things besides shopping for all they need.C. Because people feel safe in malls with police stations around.D. Because people enjoy the fresh air and can have a good rest there.46. Those are called mall rats.A. who are busy stealing in the mallB. who have visited the biggest mallsC. who are often found busy shopping in mallsD. who live under the roofof the mallCShopping is not as simple as you may think! There are all sorts of tricks at play each time we reach out for that particular brand (品牌) of product on the shelf.Colouring, for example, varies according to what the producers are trying to sell. Health foods are packaged (包装) in greens, yellows or browns because we think of these as healthy colours. Ice cream packets are often blue and expensive goods, like chocolates, are gold or silver.When some kind of pain killer was brought out recently, researchers found that the colors turned the customers off because they made the product look weak and ineffective. Eventually, it came on the market in a dark blue and white package—blue because we think of it as safe, and white as calm.The size of a product can attract a shopper. But quite often a bottle doesn’t contain as much as it appears to.It is believed that the better-known companies spend, on average, 70 per cent of the total cost of the product itself on packaging!The most successful producers know that it’s not enough to have a good product. The founder of Pears soap, who for 25 years has used pretty little girls to promote (推销) their goods, came to the conclusion: “Any fool can make soap, but it takesa genius (天才) to sell it.〞47. Which of the following may trick a shopper into buying a product according to the text?A. The cost of its package.B. The price of the product.C. The colour of its package.D. The brand name of the product.48. The underlined part “the colours turned the customers off〞(in Para. 3 ) means that the colours _____.A. attracted the customers stronglyB. had weak effects on thecustomersC. tricked the customers into shoppingD. caused the customers to loseinterest49. Which of the following is the key to the success in product sales?A. The way to promote goods.B. The discovery of a genius.C. The team to produce a good product.D. The brand name used by successful producers.50. Which of the following would be the best title for this text?A. Choice of Good ProductsB. Disadvantages of ProductsC. Effect of Packaging on ShoppingD. Brand Names and Shopping TricksⅤ。

Even the most beautiful actresses often wish they could change something about their looks. Should we live our whole lives be-lieving we are ugly? Why can't we raise our head high and believe that we are as beautiful as oth-ers? A smile is beautiful on any face, whether fat, oily or hairy.

A good look is less important than a kind heart.BThomas Alva Edison lit up the world with his invention of the electric light. Without him, the world might still be a dark place at night. However, the electric light was not his only invention. He also invented the phonograph (留声机), the motion picture camera, and over 1, 200 other things. About every two weeks he created something new.He was born in Milan, Ohio, on February 11, 1847. His family moved to Port Huron, Michigan, when he was seven years old. Surprisingly, he stayed at school for only two months. His mother, a former teacher, taught him a few things, but Thomas was mostly self-educated.When he was 12 years old, he got his first job. He became a newsboy on a train that ran between Port Huron and Detroit. He set up a laboratory in the train so that he could continue his experiments in his spare time. Unfortunately, his first work did not end well. Thomas was fired after he accidentally set fire to the floor of the train.Thomas then worked for five years as a telegraph operator, but he continued to spend much of his time on experiments. He got his first patent (专利) in 1868 for a vote recorder run by electricity. However, the vote recorder was not a success. In 1870, he sold another invention, a stock-ticker, for $ 40,000.Thomas Edison was totally deaf in one ear and hard of hearing in the other, but thought of his deafness as a blessing in many ways. It kept conversations short, so that he could have more time for work. He called himself a “two-shift man” because he worked 16 out of every 24 hours. Sometimes he worked so intensely that his wife had to remind him to sleep and eat.Thomas Edison died at the age of 84 on October 18, 1931, at his estate in West Orange, New Jersey. He left numerous inventions that improved the quality of life all over the world.6.
