Dad’s comb was jade green. I heard he bought it when he married Mum, which made the comb two years older than I was. Every night, he wouldsmile, hand me the comb and say, “Be a good girl and help Daddy clean it, OK?”
I was more than happy to do it. At age five this mundane task brought me such joy. I would excitedly turn the tap on, then brush the comb with a used toothbrush as hard as I could. Satisfied that I’d done a good job, I would proudly return the comb to Dad. He would smile at me and place the comb on top of his wallet.
About two years later, Dad left his sales job and started his own wholesale business. I started primary school. That was when things started to change. He didn’t come home as much as he used to – just a couple of times a week. And when he did come home, it was always late and I’d already be in bed. I started to get mad. I stopped waiting for him to come home, and stopped going downstairs to check on him.
Today, I’m no longer a kid. I’ve graduated from college and got a job. Dad’s business has got back on track. Things are better now. Yet the uncomfortable silence between Dad and me persisted.
Two days before my birthday last year, Dad came home early. As usual, I helped him carry his bags into his study. When I turned to leave, he said, “Hey, would you like to help me clean my comb?” I looked at him a while, then took the comb and headed to the sink.
I passed the clean comb back to Dad. He looked at it and smiled. But this time, I noticed something different. My dad has aged. He has wrinkles next to his eyes when he smiles, yet his smile is still as heartwarming as before. The smile of a father who just wants a good life for his family. Dad carefully placed his comb on top of his wallet.
After so many years, he still organizes his personal items in the same meticulous way. I guess some things never change. And for that, I’m glad.
4. What caused the uncomfortable silence between Dad and me?
A. Generation gap.
B. Dad’s failure in business.
C. My ignorance of Dad.
D. Dad’s absence from the family.
5. Which of the following can best describe Dad?
A. Gentle but strict.
B. Hardworking and caring.
C. Cautious and realistic.
D. Demanding but patient.
6. Why did Dad ask his daughter to clean his comb before her birthday?
A. To give her a lesson.
B. To follow his old habit.
C. To fix their relationship.
D. To praise her helpfulness.
7. Which saying concludes the text best?
A. Yesterday once more.
B. Let bygones be bygones.
C. Some things never change.
D. Like father, like daughter.
C
One of the most popular street food found inChinais no doubt the barbecue. A new program, called Chinese Barbecue, tells the story of this popular food cooked over hot coals on just about every street corner in cities and towns across the country. Barbecued meat is an important part of people’s nightlife.
Shown on June 20, the program has had more than 25 million clicks on the video site . To find the most popular barbecue stalls (摊位), the production team travelled to more than 500 locations in 30 cities across the country. Some viewers compare Chinese Barbecue to Midnight Diner, a Japanese TV program telling stories from late night informal Japanese bars.
“I’m happy to hear this comparison because Midnight Diner is a good program, and we share the same topic― night food,” Chinese Barbecue’s director Chen Yingjie said. “However, they are quite different.” He said that Midnight Diner focused more on food itself, though there was someconversation while people were eating. However, the night food scene of Chinese people means joy and a more lively atmosphere. People eating these barbecue snacks develop a feeling of connection, which can be a cure for loneliness.
The barbecue, regarded as the most ordinary and common night street snack, is different from home-made food by mothers as that is a symbol of family and kinship. The barbecue is where you go to become connected to people in society. And unlike official business lunches, during which people are rather polite, the barbecue lets people relax with old friends and new friends, leaving a lasting impression of friendship.
The world, as a whole, holds deep-rooted good feelings toward the barbecue, either for the taste or the warmth produced by fire. “What we should do is to present the Chinese barbecue just the way it is because with
its special ingredients(食材)，ways of cooking and more importantly, the special environment and people, the world will recognize it and might fall in love with it just as we do.” said Chen.
8. What do we know about Chinese Barbecue?
A. It has been becoming very popular on the Internet.
B. It is thought highly of by most of the foreign tourists.
C. It mainly talks about the most famous Chinese food.
D. It shows the color1 ful nightlife in large cities ofChina.
9. In which way was Chinese Barbecue different from Midnight Diner?
A. It showed more kinds of food.
B. It focused more on the diners.
C. It showed the eating habits.
D. It was less popular than Midnight Diner.
10. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The importance of the barbecue to family.
B. The influence of the barbecue on people’s manners.
C. The influence of the barbecue on people’s lifestyle.
D. The role of the barbecue in people’s relationship.
11. Why did Chen Yingjie choose the barbecue as the topic of the series?
A. To show the feature of Chinese food.
B. To research a special way of cooking.
C. To help the world understandChina.
D. To introduce the history of the barbecue.
D
It's the near future.Animal populations have fallen sharply and 80% of species are extinct.The forests are so rare that you need to make a booking to visit one. Birds also face extinction.The Arctic terns,a species evolved to fly across the world on4000kmannual journeys，are on their last migration (迁徙) to Antarctica.
The Last Migrationby the Sydney-based writer Charlotte McConaghy is a different sort of climate novel，one in which the heroine's(女主人公)damaged soul is as much a story as the damaged environment This is McConaghy's first work of literary fiction,after a history publishing in science fiction and a romantic fantasy series.
"I wanted to try and engage with the climate crisis closely,"she said."It's hard to nail down where he book came from.But I had Toni Morrison's words in my head:'If there's a book you really want to read,but i hasn't been written yet,then you must write it.'I love that. It really speaks to me.""
I wanted to write about the way the natural world is disappearing but I didn't know a way in."The way in”, she
says, was to"go travelling.I went to Ireland and Iceland,and thought about these incredible journeys of the terns and these people who study hes journeys."
The book became a story of a double journey: the migration of the birds,and a broken woman's travelling to the end of the earth.
Much of the book is told in flashbacks, the action jumping between the south coast of New South Wales to the west coast of Ireland and to Greenland.
"I've always been fascinated with Ireland: the landscape, the people and the poetry and music.I was fascinated with writing a character from there. It was a way to connect more with the place."
McConaghy says she also wanted to have a character who was"of two places"."I had lived in 21 houses by the time I was 21, as a result I definitely know how it feels to feel as if you are not sure where you belong and feeling as if you are between two worlds."
12. How isThe Last Migrationdifferent from other climate novels?
A. It forecasts environmental destruction.
B. It features a bird's cross-continental migration.
C It combines science fiction well with romantic fantasy.
D. It attaches equal importance to the heroine's broken soul.
13. What did McConaghy think of Toni Morrison's words?
A. Inspirational.
B. One-sided.
C. Authoritative.
D. Casual.
14. Why did McConaghy go travelling?
A. To appreciate the landscape of Ireland.
B. To follow the migration of the birds.
C. To get away from her tiresome life.
D. To find ideas for her new book.
15. How might a character "of two places"feel?
A. Content and carefree.
B. More connected with nature.
C. Lacking in a sense of belonging.
D. Knowledgeable about the world.

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。

选项中有两项为多余选项
Why is it that we always seem to pick the slowest line in a supermarket or store? Basically, the reason is simple: the chances are against us. To explain, imagine that youare in a store where there are three lines.____16____If there are more lines, your chances of getting into the speediest queue are even less.
Interestingly, some people have come up with theories and formulas to calculate this kind of thing.___17___A pioneering queuing theorist was an engineer named Erlang. He wanted to figure out the best number of telephone operators to have at the telephone exchange in the early 1900s. Taking into consideration the average number of phone calls in an hour and the average call length, Erlang came up with formulas to determine the best number of operators that should be on duty at any given time.____18____On top of that, his work established the basis for queuing theory, which became a new branch of mathematics.
The theories first invented by Erlang are still used today in a variety of commercial settings, including call centers and traffic engineering.____19____While there are many options available regarding lining up, it appears that a snaking-line approach—where people stand in a single line and wait for the next available clerk—is the most efficient.____20____Research shows that this option is about three times faster than using separate lines, which is the approach that is most commonly used but not that efficient for anyone in a rush.
A. This is the method that most banks use.
B. People who do this type of research are generally known as queuing theorists.
C. His formula was soon accepted by telephone companies, including the British Post.
D. You only have a one-in-three chance of picking the quickest line, so most likely you’ll be wrong.
E. The research he conducted even helps modern businesses provide satisfactory services to the public.
F. Businesses know just the tricks for distracting their customers from the long lines they’re waiting in.
G. Grocery stores try to have enough employees at checkout lines to get all customers through without delay.
