AActors Keira Knightley and Kristen Bell have both commented on their worries about using Disney princesses as role models for their children.On a famous talk show, Knigh tley said her daughter (who was born in 2015) was “banned” from watching Cinderella, which Disney produced as a cartoon in 1950 and a live-action film in 2015. “Cinderella waits around for a rich guy to rescue her. Don’t. Rescue yourself! Obviously.”Knightley added that she had also forbidden The Little Mermaid, the 1989 cartoon. “This is the one that I’m quite annoyed about because I really like the film. I mean, the songs are great, but do not give up your voice for a man. Well, that’s a little difficult to handle, but I’m keeping to it.”Bell, the star of Frozen, expressed her disapproval of the Snow White fairy tale, which became a classic Disney cartoon in 1938. In an interview with parents, Bell said: “I look at my girls and ask, ‘Don’t you think it’s very unusual that Snow White didn’t ask the old witch why she needed to eat the apple? Or where she got that apple?’ I say, ‘I would never take food from a stranger, would you?’ And my kids respond, ‘No!’ And I think I’m doing something right.”Bell, who played a Disney princess in Frozen, said she also used the story to illustrate issues about permission. She says that she asked her children: “Don’t you think that it’s very strange that the prince kisses Snow White without her permission? … Because you cannot kiss someone if they’re sleeping!”Bell later responded to criticism on social media. To one user she wrote: “Everything is a message to our children, because they are sponges（海绵）that soak up everything and are learning how to be adults through what they see. I want my girls to see and practice critical thinking and respectful behavior.”21. Why did Knightley stop her daughter from watching The Little Mermaid ?A. Because Knightley disliked it.B. Because the little mermaid was tricky.C. Because the film showed wrong values.D. Because the songs in the film were annoying.22. What can we infer about Bell from Paragraph 4 ?A. Bell thought Snow White behaved well.B. Bell didn’t know how to persuade her kids.C. Bell wanted her kids to learn from Snow White.D. Bell believed her kids should be critical about the film.23. What qualities do Knightley and Bell expect their children to have ?A. Curious and hard-working.B. Smart and generous.C. Independent and good-mannered.D. Critical and proud.BThe Israeli farmers who pioneered the revolutionary technology known as drip irrigation（滴流灌溉）weren’t trying to solve one of the world’s most urgent problems. They were just trying to survive. They lived in the desert, and they didn’t have enough water to grow their crops.In its simplest form, it was little more than a pipe with holes in it. But behind each hole was a hi-tech dripper that let out just the right amount of water. Snaked along a row of crops so that the holes were positioned directly above the roots, the pipe could direct each precious drop of water directly to the plants, getting a bigger harvest while using a very small amount of water.Over time, the farmers improved upon the technology, perfecting the drippers that regulated the flow of water, and connecting the pipelines to computers that could determine exactly how much water each plant needed and when.If the global population kept growing, the rest of the world would increasingly resemble their little community in the desert. So they began selling their irrigation systems in other parts of the world, eventually expanding to more than 110 countries. Netafirm, the company says it’s lifting people out of poverty and conserving water at a time when the importance of doing so has never been clearer.The mass adoption of drip irrigation won’t save the world by itself. To avoid the coming catastrophe, nearly everybody will, in some way, have to do more with less, perhaps through accepting and using other new technologies. Otherwise, it’s going to get ugly.24. Why is drip irrigation called “the revolutionary technology”?A. It saves the world all by itself.B. It is controlled by computers.C. It makes irrigation more effective.D. It provides deserts with water.25. How does the drip irrigation help farmers with crops?A. By drilling holes on the pipes.B. By regulating water via drippers.C. By snaking pipes along the crops.D. By placing pipes just above roots.26. Which of the following will be the best slogan for Netafirm to sell the irrigation systems?A. Less water; More harvest.B. New technology; New world.C. More grain; Less starvation.D. Water saving; World surviving.CName﹣calling, teasing, pushing and fighting﹣whether you have experienced it or not, the chances are that these are the things that appear in your mind when you hear the word “bullying”. Yet, many of us know little about the serious, lasting harms bullying could cause.If you’ve watched 13 Reasons Why, you’ll understand the impacts that bullying can have. The second season of the popular US teenage drama was released on May 18. It tells the story of Hannah Baker, a high school student who takes her own life after she’s picked on by fellow students, while others stand by and do nothing to help her.One of the important messages audiences could get from the show is to treat people with kindness and respect. “It teaches us that every single thing we say and do has an impact on others,” news platform Odyssey noted.Some may think 13 Reasons Why exaggerates（夸大）the seriousness of school bullying, but according to the US National Center for Educational Statistics, more than 20 percent of US students were bullied in 2016, and only 36% of this group reported it.NBA player Gerald Green opened up about being called “alien hands” during his teenage years due to his big hands. “Being bullied was embarrassing,” he said. “I still remember shying away from crowds and walking around with my hands in my pockets to evade the attention from my peers.” To get away with the teasing, he found his motivation by playing basketball and making a career out of it. But not everyone is so lucky to discover a release.According to statistics released by the US government, if someone prevents a bully, there’s a 57%chance that the bullying will stop within 10 seconds. So if you ever witness bullying, consider stepping up and supporting the victim. As US actor Brandon Flynn, who stars in 13 Reasons Why, said, “Just because you’re not the one getting bullied, it doesn’t mean it’s not your problem.”27. What is the purpose of the last paragraph？A. To add some background information.B. To encourage eyewitnesses to take action.C. To introduce a new topic of the discussion.D. To give people advice about dealing with bullying.28. What does the US National Center for Educational Statistics indicate？A. Bullying isn’t a problem in many schools.B. School bullying can’t cause too much pain.C. Only a few people are concerned about bullying.D. Many people who’re bullied choose not to seek help.29. What does the underlined word in Para. 5 mean？A. Attract.B. Focus.C. Avoid.D. Keep.30. What does the text tell us about 13 Reasons Why？A. It overstates school bullying.B. It was first shown on May 18.C. It is mainly about school bullying.D. It shows fe w people can report bullying.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
