The sun was shining brightly on the morning of the big day, but the ground was still white with snow and it was very cold. Outside the gate of Wonka’s factory, many people gathered to watch the five lucky ticket holders going in. It was just before ten o’clock. The people we re pushing and shouting, and policemen with arms linked were trying to hold them back from the gate.
Right beside the gate, stood the five famous children, together with the grown-ups who had come with them. Grandpa Joe was standing quietly among them, and beside him, holding tightly on to his hand, was little Charlie Bucket himself.
All the children, except Charlie, had both their mothers and fathers with them, and it was a good thing that they had, otherwise the children might have got out of hand. They were so eager (热切的) to get in that their parents had to hold them back to prevent them from climbing over the gate. “Be patient!” cried the fathers. “It’s not time yet! It’s not ten o’clock!”
Behind him, Charlie Bucket could hear the shouts of the people as they pushed and fought to have a look at the famous children.
“Which one is Charlie Bucket?”
“Charlie Bucket? Very close to us. Just there! See him?” “Why hasn’t he got a coat on in this cold weather?” “Don’t ask me. Maybe he can’t afford to buy one.”
Charlie, standing only a few meters away from the speaker, gave Grandpa Joe’s hand a squeeze ( 捏 ), and the old man looked down at Charlie and smiled.
Somewhere far away, a clock began striking ten. Very slowly, with a loud noise, the great gate of the factory began to open.

Many people read paper books or e-books, but now there is a new trend—listening to audiobooks.
According to a recent report by the Chinese Academy of Press and Publication (CAPP), more people are choosing to listen to audiobooks these days. 26 percent of adults listened to audiobooks in 2018, which was 3.2 percent higher than that in 2017.
Young people have been the main driver in the development of audiobooks. 26.2 percent of teenagers listened to audiobooks in 2018, which was 3.5 percent higher than that in 2017. Ximalaya noted that teenagers aged 13 to 18 spent more money on audiobooks in 2018.
One of the reasons why audiobooks are becoming more popular is that people want to make full use of their free time, China News Service reported. Listening to audiobooks frees up time for them, whether they are doing sports, taking a bus, or lying in bed. Faster Internet speeds mean that a book can be downloaded in seconds, according to Wei Yushan, director of CAPP.
Listening to audiobooks also helps with loneliness. “When I am bored or lonely, audiobooks are like friends who are always with me,” Zhong Yan, and office worker who is obsessed with audiobooks, told Beijing Evening News.
However, audiobooks are still far from perfect. “Listening to audiobooks doesn’t make you think in the way you do when you’re reading a book. It’s also likely that you will miss information when you listen,” said Zhong.
Qiangqiang, a primary student who often listens to audiobooks, shares this opinion, “Audiobooks are less detailed than paper books you read,” he told Beijing Evening News.
Li Yini, assistant general manager of Baicaoyuan Bookstore in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, told Jiangnan Times that people who want a book with serious contents should choose a paper book or e-book, but they can choose an audiobook if the contents are easy to understand.
37.What can we learn from the first three paragraphs?
A.Audiobooks have developed quickly in recent years.
B.More teenagers are using the app Ximalaya in 2018.
C.Ximalaya is the first choice when people listen to audiobooks.
D.Audiobooks are more popular than paper books all over the world.
38.Why do people like to listen to audiobooks according to the passage?
A.Because audiobooks are cheaper than paper books.
B.Because audiobooks can free up time and help with loneliness.
C.Because audiobooks can make people think more than before.
D.Because audiobooks provide people with a better reading experience.
39.What does the underlined phrase “is obsessed with” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. is sick of.
B. is interested in.
C. is careful with.
D. is amazed at.
40.What is the structure of the passage?
A. B.
C. D.

Seven years ago, Joyce Akinpe moved to Australia to start a new life, finding an exciting job in Sydney. After the outbreak(爆发)of COV1D-19, she suddenly cost her job.
Seeing that there were many others like herself in trouble from the outbreak, Akinpe and her two roommates, Michele Gomez and Maureen Lee, brainstormed ideas for how to help their local community. They came up with a street
pantry(储藏柜). Gomez said the idea was very simple, "Take what you need and leave what you can."
With the help of Gomez's father, they built the Blessing Box—a street pantry, with shelves and hanging baskets and two doors made from old furniture.
It sits just at the back of the three girls' home, so they can look after it. They put some Information notices into their neighbors' mailboxes, and the Blessing Box was quickly filled with the donations from the community. "It is the community's strong support that keeps the project alive," Akinpe said.
We now have hundreds of people visiting our box every day. It might take only an hour for the box to be full and next hour it might become empty again. "We are now helping others to carry out similar projects in their own communities, too", Gomez said.
Lee said things in the box were mostly convenience foods, as well as some necessary life things such as toilet paper, "Few people take everything at once. They think there are other people who need them more.'' Lee added.
There were many people rushing there for donations. The three girls needed to sanitize(消毒)all the donations and make sure all food packages were not broken. Gomez said that they had no time for rest, but what they did was very meaningful.
33. What did Akinpe and her roommates build the street pantry for?
A. Finding a new job.
B. Earning money.
C. Helping other people.
D. Helping Gomez's father
34. According to the passage, what couldn't be found in the Blessing Box?
A. Bread.
B. Computers.
C. Water.
D. Toilet paper
35. What's the best title for the passage?
A. Challenges through Life
B. Happiness from Strangers
C. Friendship during the Hard Times
D. Kindness behind the Blessing Box
C
Take a look at teenagers around, dressed in baggy-pants(宽松的裤子), drinking soft drinks such as coke, reading Japanese cartoons. Whether you are in Beijing, Wuhan or Hong Kong, you'll get the same impression. But should we copy others or should we maintain(保持，保留)our differences?
It sounds convenient that people around the world speak the same language, dress in the same style, eat the same food and play the same games. If the world was like this, you wouldn't feel any stranger in any corner of world. But just imagine living in such a strange world. How dull and colorless it would be!
Different kinds of food that people can taste, the colorful and fashionable clothes that we dress in and different languages we speak are all part of the different cultures that our ancestors(祖先)left us. These differences represent their creativity and talent. And we all enjoy different cultures in our daily lives. When you travel to other places, you want to see different things. When you talk to foreigners you expect to listen to interesting stories. These differences in culture are what make life colorful.
But the whole world is shrinking into a small village as globalization takes effect and many different cultures are disappearing. In most big cities around the world, people wear the same clothes. Fast food stores are everywhere. Hollywood movies are kicking traditional performing arts out of our lives. The colors of our life are disappearing.
There is a joke that even the panda and zebra want to live a colorful life. So let's take action to protect our colorful culture before it becomes as simple as black and white. It's not difficult. Learning some folk songs, trying on traditional clothing and even eating local food instead of going to KFC can help. And we're sure you'll enjoy it.
3b. The passage is written to .
A. explain cultural differences
B. convince(使相信；说服)readers to maintain cultural differences
C. predict the future of globalization
D. show some cultural festivals
37. The author thinks that cultural differences .
A. make the world colorful
B. make communication difficult
C. only exit in food and clothing
D. will never fade away
38. The author Starts the argument by .
A. giving his view at the very beginning
B. giving the opposite view at the very beginning
C. describing certain cultural phenomena(现象)
D. giving examples of cultural differences

If you know a place really well, you might say that you know it "like the back of your hand". How well do you know the back of your hand, though? New research shows that we don't know as much about our hands as we think we do. Wider and shorter
Professor Matthew Longo, at the University of London, tried an experiment(实验). His team of researchers covered the left hands of 100 people. They then asked the people to point to where they thought their fingertips and
knuckles(指关节)were. They found this very difficult. "People think their hand is wider than it actually is," said Longa. Fingers also seem shorter.
Sense of position
"It is connected to our sense of position" explained Longo. This is our ability to tell where different parts of our bodies are, even when we can't see them." It tells us whether a joint(关节)is straight or not," he said. It also tells us
maps far the size and shape of our bodies. "This experiment tried to find those maps," said Longo.
Strength of feeling
These maps make mistakes. "Our brains see areas as larger where the skin feels touch strongly," said Longo. Body parts don't appear as their true size, but appear bigger or smaller depending on how strongly they feel touch. Our lips, for example, have more nerves than our noses, so our "maps" show lips as being bigger than our noses.
39. What do we know about Longo's experiment?
A. It examined left-handed people.
B. People could find their knuckles.
C. People thought their hands were smaller than they actually were.
D. People thought their fingers were shorter than they actually were.
40. What does the underlined "it" refer-to?
A. The new experiment.
B. The wrong feelings people had.
C. The size of the hand.
D. Sense of position.
41 .Where does our sense of position came from?
A. The maps people draw.
B. The nerves in our brains.
C. Other people's descriptions.
D. The shape of our bodies.
42. We can infer from the article that .
A. there are more nerves in the fingers than in the toes
B. our lips have a weaker sense of touch than our nose
C. the hand feels touch more strongly than fingers do
D. our brains can see the world better than other mammals。
