AMy family has a tradition of holding garage sales（旧货出售）. On a Saturday afternoon back in 2002, just when my au nt Lorraine was starting to pack up, I discovered my very own treasure — a pair of black boots. Although they weren’t anythi ng fancy, they caught my eyes. Plus they were only two dollar s. She noticed me eyeing them up and said I could have them for fifty cents.Even better! I thought to myself as I pulled them on. They wer e the perfect fit.When I handed over the money little did I know that these boo ts would accompany me on some of my greatest adventures. Each year I make a journey overseas and that year, I was ma king arrangements to visit Helsinki (the capital of Finland), so naturally, I packed the boots. It was winter, but the boots protected my feet from the cold weather. I wore them everywhere. The boots even accompanied me as I walked through the nig ht to find live music. I felt right at home among old friends.In 2009, I went to Aunt Lorraine’s home to attend my cousin J ason’s birthday party. While we were talking, Jason stared at my boots.He asked, “Where did you get those boots?”“I bought them at your family’s garage sale,” I responded. Jason turned to face his mother. “Mum! You sold my boots? I bought them in Milan and I’ve worn them through New York, L ondon, Berlin and Paris,”he said.After a silence, however, he laughed and said, “Thanks a lot, Mum!” We spent the rest of the evening sharing memories of t he journeys we’d both had wearing the same pair of boots. The boots are no longer fit for wear, but I have held on to the m as a memento (纪念物) of the last decade, the places we have walked and the me mories we now share.21. The author bought the boots_______.A. from his cousinB. at the price of $2C. without hesitationD. for his adventurous trips22.

Both Senior Pass and Access Pass ________.A. are valid for a lifetimeB.charge the holder for deliveryC. provide a discount on camping feesD. are intended for the elderly with disabilitiesCThe Children’s Book-show Competition is a chance for young readers to be writers. Reading, it seems, is coming back into fashion, if a survey by the famous National Literacy Trust (the NLT) is true. It shows that the percentage of children who admit enjoying reading ha s grown for the first time in the past 8 years.So it’s a good time to launch a competition that includes a she d-load of new books for schools as prizes. The Children’s Book-show Competition, backed by The Independent, is taking to th e roads again from the start of next term, with a nation-wide tour of 15 big cities, featuring a line-up of a dozen childr en’s writers and illustrators(插图画家)aiming to persuade pupils to follow their footsteps.The competition, launched by the children’s writer and illustrat or Jessica Souhami, has two categories: the under-nine’s and nine to 13-year-olds.Children are asked to choose their favorite fairy or folk tale an d set it in an extraordinary place.Then they are to retell it with the aid of drawings and writings —whether it is set at sea, on a distant planet, in the future or in the past. The closing date for the competition is 30 November.“Tell your tale in pictures and in words,”say the organizers of t he competition. “It can be in a picture book or comic-book format.”The winner of each competition will receive a signed copy of a book by each of the 12 authors involved in this year’s tour, pl us £150 worth of books for their school. The runners-up will receive a signed copy of Souhami’s new book.28. What can we know about the Book-show Competition?A. It will be held by the famous NLT.B. It has never been organized before.C. It will be held in different cities.D. Children of all ages will join in it.29. The underlined word “backed” in Paragraph 3 means____ ___.A. startedB. promotedC. reportedD. supported30. What will be offered as a prize to schools?A. Books worth £150 in all.B. Pictures and comic booksC. Books signed by 12 authors.D. Jessica Souhami’s new books.31. The author’s purpose of writing this passage is to _______.A. encourage young readers to become writersB. persuade all children to join in the competitionC. promote children’s books by famous writersD. introduce a book-show competition to childrenDJust before summer, a serious accident occurred on U.S. Hig hway 31, killing a man driving a motorcycle.It’s reported that a car driven by a teenager traveling north ch anged direction across the highway and struck a motorcycle ri der traveling south. The rider, Jay Kendall, served as postmas ter and owned a local business. Immediate reports stated the use of a cell phone was the reason for the deadly accident. The death of Kendall led to a rally (集会) organized by Kendall’s wife aimed at raising awareness a bout the dangers of texting and driving.The dangers are very real.Police officers across the country have witnessed many textin g-related accidents. The attention it takes to read or write a text while driving is just enough time to turn off the road or into thepath of another vehicle. The results are often deadly. Yet, mo torists continue to grasp their cell phones while they drive. Laws concerning texting and driving are weak. In Alabama, ve ry little punishment faces an offender (违法者). For officers, spotting a driver texting can be difficult, but it’s certainly not impossible. Motorists who avoid texting behind the wheel often report seeing multiple drivers texting while sp eeding along a highway or city street.Many reasonable people agree that texting and driving is dan gerous, but they also find themselves reading a message whil e driving.Education would be helpful in convincing people to leave their phones alone while they drive. But even more effective would be laws that bite when offenses are recorded.Years ago, lawmakers were hesitant to toughen laws concerni ng driving while under the influence of alcohol (酒). Increasing accidents on the highways finally convinced lawmakers to ma ke the laws more effective. The same tough approach is need ed for texting and driving. Evidence of the deadlines of such ri sky behavior has become all too clear.32. How did the traffic accident on U.S. Highway 31 happen?A. The car driver wasn’t skilled.B. The car driver wasn’t paying attention.C. The motorcyclist was using a cell phone.D. The motorcyclist changed direction suddenly.33. Why is it hard to put an end to texting and driving?A. Few people are aware of the problem.B. There are no laws against texting and driving.C. Punishment for texting and driving is mild.D. It’s difficult for police officers to find offenders.34. In the author’s opinion, to stop texting and driving by educ ation seems _______.A. helplessB. slowC. costlyD. troublesome35. The author mentions laws concerning drinking and driving to show that _______.A. tough laws are necessaryB. texting and driving is riskyC. lawmakers are irresponsibleD. drivers behave badly t hese days第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

AA Language Programme for TeenagersWelcome to Teenagers Abroad! We invite you to join us on an amazing journey of language learning.Our CoursesRegardless of your choice of course, you’ll develop your language ability both quickly and effectively. Our Standard Course guarantees a significant increase in your confidence in a foreign language, with focused teaching in all 4 skill areas----speaking, listening, reading and writing. Our Intensive Course builds on our Standard Course, with 10 additional lessons per week, guaranteeing(确保) the fastest possible language learning (see table below).EvaluationStudents are placed into classes according to their current language skills. The majority of them take on online language test before starting their programme. However, if this is not available, students sit the exam on the first Monday of their course. Learning materials are provided to students throughout their course, and there will never be more than 15 participants in each class.Arrivals and TransferOur programme offers the full package—students are taken good care of from the start through to the very end. They are collected from the airport upon arrival and brought to their accommodation(住宿) in comfort. We require the student’s full details at least 4 weeks in advance.Meals / Allergies(过敏) / Special Dietary RequirementsStudents are provided with breakfast, dinner and either a cooked or packed lunch(which consists of a sandwich, a drink and a dessert). Snacks outside of mealtimes may be purchased by the student individually. We ask that you let us know of any allergies or dietary requirements as well as information about any medicines you take. Depending on the type of allergies and/ or dietary requirements, an extra charge may be made for providing special food.1.How does Intensive Course differ from Standard Course?A. It is less effective.B.It includes extra lessons.C. It focuses on speaking.D. It gives you confidence.2. Before starting their programme, students are expected to _____.A. take a language testB. have an online interviewC. prepare learning materialsD. report their language levels3. With the full package, the programme organizer is supposed to_____.A. inform students of their full flight detailsB. offer students free sightseeing tripsC. collect students’luggage in advanceD. look after students throughout the programmeBOf course, she wasn’t really my aunt and, out of fear, I never called her that to her face. I only referred to her as “My Aunt Fannie”because the name always made my father laugh quietly and gave my mother cause to look strictly at both of us—at me for being disrespectful of my elder and at my father for encouraging my bad behavior.I enjoyed both reactions so I looked for every opportunity to work the name into as many conversations as possible.As a young woman, my mother had worked in the kitchen of a large Victorian farmhouse. During those years my mother helped Aunt Fanny make the best blueberry jam ever tasted by anyone in Glenfield. She was well-known for her jam and for never sharing the recipe(食谱) with others. Even though my mother knew the recipe by heart, as long as Aunt Fannie was alive, she never made the jam withoutAunt Fannie in our kitchen to direct the process and keep the secret.Each August, my mother would prepare me for Aunt Fannie’s visit. One year, after I had helped with the jam process Aunt Fannie gave me a coin and then made me promise that I would never spend it. “Hold onto this coin,”she said, “and someday you will be rich. I still have my very first coin, given to me by my grandmother.”So I kept the coin in a small box and waited to become rich.I now have the blueberry jam recipe and the coin from Aunt Fannie. In people’s eyes Aunt Fannie's success resulted from that secret recipe. But to me, it was just a common recipe. Neither have made me become a rich person, but I keep them as reminders to hold onto the valuable things in life. Money can make you feel rich for a while, but it is the relationships and the memories of time spent with friends and family that truly leave you wealthy. And that is a fortune that anyone can build.4. Why did the author always use the name “My Aunt Fannie”in conversations?A. She was frightened of Aunt Fannie.B. She enjoyed her parents’reactions.C. She liked Aunt Fannie’s recipe.D. She greatly respected “Aunt Fannie”.5. The underlined word “she”in Paragraph 2 refers to ______.A. Aunt FannieB. the author’s grandmotherC. the author’s motherD. Aunt Fannie’s grandmother6. In the last paragraph, the author encourages readers to______.A. hold onto the first coin in lifeB. make as many friends as possibleC. spend more time with family and friendsD. make money with their own hands7. What could be the best title for this passage?A. The Key to SuccessB. A Fortune Built from a CoinC. Blueberry Jam RecipeD. A Relationship of TrustCIt is widely acknowledged that nearly every kid might come across some kind of school bullying(欺侮), however, the age at which kids were first bullied could influence how strongly they are affected, suggests a new study. And, surprisingly, it is not the youngest kids who are hurt the most in the long term.Bullying can have long-lasting effects, but particularly when it begins in adolescence(青春期), the researchers say. people subjected to either verbal or physical bullying are known to be at greater risk of developing depression, anxiety disorders or to behave violently. But not everyone reacts in this way.Children who were bullied for the first time before they hit adolescence seem to get over it, but those who are bullied for the first time later on in adolescence seem to become more aggressive(富有攻击性的) or are more likely to turn to drinking as a means of coping with it. These are the conclusions of psychologists Matthew Newman and colleagues of Texas at Austin, US.The team gave questionnaires to nearly 1,500 college students about their experience of physical and psychological bullying before adolescence- before high school- and in late adolescence- at high school. They assessed mood and mental state, judging by signs of anxiety or depression, such as sleeplessness. The group was also questioned about how they would react to certain challenges, such as humiliation.People who were bullied all showed slightly higher levels of stress. But while those bullied earlier in life seemed to respond normally to provocation (煽动), people bullied for the first time late in adolescence are more withdrawn and sensitive to violence.There are also sex differences between those bullied for the first time during adolescence: females are more likely to react aggressively when provoked and males are much more likely to turn to drinking to escape bad situations. The best solution in all cases was strong social support, whether from friends, family or school. Those with no one to share their problems with suffered the most.So perhaps it is best not to shelter children completely from bullying early on, suggests Newman, “They may get stressed, but unhealthy coping really jumps out when they are bullied for the first time later on.”8. What determines the degree of bullying’s effect on people according to the study?A. The reason why they are bullied.B. The place where they are first bullied.C. The person who first bullies them.D. The age at which they are first bullied.9. What may happen to those first bullied later on in adolescence according to Newman and his colleagues?A. They seem to easily get over the effect of bullying.B. Some are likely to be more aggressive.C. Most of them will respond to bullying normally.D. Most of them are afraid of sharing their problems.10. The sex differences between people bullied for the first time during adolescence are reflected in _______.A. the support they get from the societyB. the effect bullying has on themC. the way they react to provocationD. the type of bullying they receive第二节阅读补全(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。

ASophia Robertson went to a boarding (寄宿的) school. Here is one of the letters she wrote to her parents from the school.Dear Mum and Dad,I'm afraid I have some very bad news for you. I have been very naughty and the school principal is very angry with me. She is going to write to you. You must come and take me away from here. She does not want me in the school any longer.The trouble started last night when I was smoking a cigarette in bed. This is against the rules, of course. We are not supposed(应该的) to smoke at all.As I was smoking, I heard footsteps coming towards the room. I did not want a teacher to catch me smoking, so I threw the cigarette away. Unfortunately, the cigarette fell into the waste-paper basket, which caught fire. There was a curtain near the waste-paper basket which caught fire, too. Soon the whole room was burning. The principal phoned the fire department. The school is a long way from the town and by the time the firefighters arrived, the whole school was in flames. Many of the girls are in the hospital.The principal says that the fire was all my fault and that I must pay for the damage. She will send you a bill for about a million dollars.I am very sorry about this.Much love,SophiaPS: None of the above is true, but I have failed my exams.

All means of travelling have their advantages and disadvantages and people choose one according to their plans and the places they are going to.If we travel a lot, we will see and discover a lot of things that we could never see or experience at home, though we may read about them in books and newspapers.

His parents had explained to him how important it was to go to bed early and get a good rest .But Jerry paid no attention to them, and they didn't know what to do until one weekend when they were visiting Jerry's grandparents.Grandpa Peter heard all about it and said, “This sounds like a job for Tubb y.” So Jerry's parents loaded the cat onto the car and returned home.That night, at bedtime, the same problem happened. Jerry didn't want to go to bed, and even though his parents waited a while to see if Tubby would solve the problem, nothing happened.Hours later, Jerry finally decided to go to bed. But what a surprise when he entered his bedroom! Tubby was in his bed, totally sprawling(伸开四肢躺) out, and snoring like an express train.Jerry tried to move the cat, but there was no way of moving him an inch. That night he hardly slept, lying on one tiny corner of his bed.The next day the same thing happened, even though Jerry was much more tired from not having slept well. When the third day arrived, he had understood that if he wanted to sleep in his bed, he would have to get into it before Tubby did. That night, when his parents only stared to mention the topic of bedtime, Jerry rushed upstairs and dived into his bed. His parents could not believe it. They knew nothing about how Tubby slept in the room, nor did they understand why Jerry went to bed on time without complaint. They were so happy about this that they stayed up quite late, celebrating.8. By saying “This sounds like a job for T ub by”, Grandpa means Tubby__________.A. has the same problem as JerryB. often stays up late on the weekendC. always likes playing with small boysD. can help solve Jerry's problem9. The underlined word “snoring” in the fourth paragraph probably means__________.A. sleepingB. dreamingC. making noisesD. relaxing10. Jerry rushed upstairs for sleep because __________.A. his parents reminded him of the bedtimeB. he was afraid Tubby would take up the bedC. he was much more tired from lacking sleepD. his parents might punish him for staying up late11. The parents' attitude towards Jerry's change can be described as __________.A. curiousB. joyfulC. worriedD. disappointedDDo you like reading? Nowadays the Internet provides people with a lot of information including reading materials. But if you read books in the smallest library in the world, you will feel quite different.The smallest library in the world first appeared on the streets in New York City. The little free libraryhad space for only one reader at a time. It was set up in a neighborhood in Manhattan(曼哈顿）.There are only 40 books in the library. In fact, it is not a house but a plastic structure(建筑物）.Two architects(建筑师），Marcelo Ertorteguy and Sara Valente designed it. The library was made of recycled materials, a plastic water tank and a wooden structure. It looks like an umbrella so that all the books in it can be protected from the bad weather. There are also some holes in the structure. They allow readers to look at the books before they go into the library.“We are interested in the recycled materials, but we think the most interesting part is giving old materials new functions,” said Mr Ertorteguy.Since the library was set up, it has attracted a lot of visitors. The idea came into being and started spreading all over the United States. Later some areas of Europe, Africa and Asia also followed the example.This library aims to help people take a break from the busy life by reading a good story.12.Where is the first smallest library in the world?A. In a neighborhood in Australia.B. In a neighborhood in Manhattan.C. In a small city in England.D. In a village in China.13. The smallest library looks like an umbrella so that __________.A. people can stay in it when it is rainingB. it can attract more visitors to read books in itC. it can stop the bad weather from damaging the booksD. it can stop naughty kids from throwing books here and there14. What does Mr Ertorteguy think is the most interesting thing about the library?A. Old materials are given new functions.B. More and more readers come here.C. All of the books are very interesting.D. It is the smallest library in the world.15. The purpose of building such a small library is __________.A. to give people better books to readB. to give money to the homeless peopleC. to show how important to read booksD. to help people relax themselves第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15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。

AHave you ever felt the desire to move and experience another beautiful part of the country?This could be the perfect career change for you.The National Trust in England is looking for someone to work as a ranger on the Fame Islmds,one of Britain's oldest nature reserves located just off the Northumberland coast.For $22.668 a year,the successful applicant will be required to look after the local wildlife,including the 200 seal pups which are born on the islands each year and 37,000 pairs of puffins.The ranger will get the chance to work in some of the nation's most attractive places and spaces -impressive sunrises a one-minute ride and one of England's largest seal colonies on his doorstep.But like every job,it doesn't come without a downside.Apart from avoiding the dive-bombing Arctic terns,there is no running water on the island and there will be severe storms to fight with during the spring.Along with a love of nature and the outdoors,the National Trust is looking for "an excellent team player" who has experience in conservation work.This job isn't the normal 9 to 5,so being good at PowerPoint isn't a must. With 50,000 annual visitors every year, you really need to be able to get on with people and show them how they can participate to help nature.Could you see yourself in this role? Applications for the job close on June 7.Want to apply? Click here.21.”Downside" in the 4th paragraph can b e replaced by____________A.pay drop.B.disadvantage.C.bright future.D.bad environment22.If you'd like to apply for the job as a ranger, youshould_____________A.live a regular life.e to termswith being lonelyC.be expert at working with PowerPoint.D.have experiencein conservation work23.The passage is probably taken from_______________A.a newspaperB.a textbookC.the Internet.D.a news reportBKiwis are unique in a lot of interesting ways.They have many characteristics that are not found in any other bird.It ia assumed that the kiwi's ancestor was able to fly and reached New Zealand.Once on the island, it lost its ability to fly and eventually became the kiwi known today.Kiwis have feathers that look like hair and very strong and muscular legs.They rule the ground instead of the air.They can smell very well,Kiwis are quite shy and usually only come out at night. Kiwi can live a long time,between 25 and 50 years.A female carries a huge egg for its body size.The kiwi is about the same size as a chicken but its egg is actually six times as large as a chicken's egg. The reason for this is that the kiwi doesn’t have to fly so there aren't any limits on its weight.The female has to eat three times as much as usual to help the egg develop.Right before the egg is laid she can't eat anything because the egg presses against her stomach,leaving no room for food.All kiwi species are endangered.On average,twenty-seven die each week.Theyhave been affected most by deforestation and invasive mammals.Before humans came to New Zealand,the only mammals on the island were bats and seals.The kiwi never had to worry about predators before,but now since it cannot fly,and lays its eggs on the ground, it is pretty defenseless against invasive mammals such as rats and stoats.Stoats kill a lot of the chicks,while dogs kill a lot of adult birds,usually by accident,because they are quite delicate（易碎的)24.Which is kiwi's unique characteristic?A: They can't fly with no wings.B.They can live more than 50 years,C.They rule the air instead of the ground.D.They seldom or never come out in the daytime,25.Why does a female kiwi carry a huge egg?A.It eats three times as much as usual.B.I focuses too much on developing its egg.C.Body weight will grow without limit for a flightless bird.D.The egg presses against her stomach.26. Which kind of mammal docs no harm to kiwis?A.Bats.B.Rats,C.Stoats.D.Dogs.27. Which is a suitable tile for the passage?A.Endangered kiwi species.B.Kiwis-unique birdsC.Get close to the bird world.D.Why can’t kiwis fly?CAlmost all researches in sleep explain that nightmares are a reaction to negative experiences that happen during waking hours.However,some of thembelieve that nightmares do have some real benefits.One 2017 study.for example,found that frequent nightmare sufferers considered themselves as more empathetic(共鸣的）They also showed more of a tendency to unconsciously mirror other people through things like yawning. People who have constant nightmares also tend to think further outside the box on psychoanalysis tasks,Some other researches have found support for the idea that nightmares might be linked to creativity.People seeking cure for nightmares were not necessarily more fearful or anxious,but rather had a general sensitivity (敏感)to all emotional experiences.Sensitivity is the driving force behind Intense (强烈的) dreams.Heightened sensitivity to threats or fear during the day results in bad dreams and nightmares,while heightened passion or excitement may result in more intense positive dream.And both these forms of dreams may feed back into waking life, perhaps increasing suffering after nightmares,or promoting (促进) social bonds and empathy(共鸣)after positive dreams.The effects go further still.This sensitivity overflows over into perceptions and thoughts:people who have a lot of nightmares experience a dreamlike quality to their waking thoughts.And this kind of thinking seems to give them a creative advantage.For example,studies show that such people tend to have greater creative talent and artistic expression. And people who often have nightmares also tend to have more positive dreams than the average person.The evidence points towards the idea that, rather than disturbing normal activity,people who are unfortunate in having a lot of nightmares also have a dreaming life that is at least as creative,positive and vivid as it can be distressing and frighte ning.What’s more,this imaginative richness is unlikely to be limited to sleep,but also is filled with waking thought and daydreams. Eve n after people wake up and shake off the nightmare,in other words,a mark of it stays behind,occupying them throughout the day.28.What do most sleep researchers think of nightmares?A.They have no advantages at all.B.They make people more empatheticC.They can contribute t o humans’ creativityD.They are a reflection of waking behavior.29.How can nightmare sufferers probably stop nightmares in theoryaccording to the text?A.Be more fearful to anxious to nightmaresB.Try to reduce sensitivity to threats or fear.C.Avoid excitement as much as possible.D.Promote social bonds and empathy.30.What does the underlined word “pe rception"in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Awareness.B.Content.C.ReliefD.Determination.31 What can be the best title for the text?A.The Solution of Nightmares.B.The Empathy ofNightmaresC.The Benefits of Nightmares.D.The Tendency ofNightmaresDLast month my mother moved into a nursing home.This came after yeas of witnessing the worsening of her cognitive abilities(认知能力)and changes in her personality,all thanks to frontotemporal dementia(FTD)(额颞叶痴呆）My mom is going to lose her ability to speak,have trouble forming complete thoughts and sentences,and eventually forget how to do things she loved.like cooking and reading.But despite all of her inabilities, when I walked in on her having dinner with the rest of the woman that make up the dementia floor of the nursing home,I didn't think she belonged.It wasn't until I spent three days there bonding with those women that I realized what scared me the most--she did fit in.If you were an outsider looking at these women,you'd pity them.You'd think it was cruel that our bodies could turn on us in this way.You’d think it was sad that their families have put the burden of taking care of them on someone else.You'd want to intervene.You'd want to give the lady eating mashed potatoes with her hands a spoon,you'd want to peel the orange for the lady who's eating it like an apple,you'd want to scold the lady who forgets to flush (冲刷）the toilet and wash her hands after using the bathroom.I did all those things to my mother.But when I see her in an environment that lets her be herself. it somehow seems okay.Learn to love them unconditionally.It's easier said than done,but if she loved me after making her annoyed for making me come home by 10 p.m.on Fridays.I can love her even if she forgets my name.32.What frightened the author most?A Her mother suffered from FTD.B.Her mother fit in with the nursing home.C.she lived with those women at the nursing home.D.She had to look after her mother33.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word"intervene"?A.Interrupt.B.Amaze.C.Permit.D.Explore.34.What was the final decision of the author?A.She let her mother alone.B.She sent her mother to hospital.C.She let her mother stay at the nursing home.D. She took care of her mother at home.35.What's the author's attitude towards her mother?A.Mean.B.Selfish.C.Honest.D.Grateful.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

ALast night Mr. and Mrs. Rojas stayed home. It was cold and rainy and they didn’t want to go out in the bad weather. Mrs. Rojas made some popcorn and ice tea. At 8:00, Mr. and Mrs. Rojas went into the living room, sat on the sofa and began the movie and ate and drank. At 8:15, Mr. and Mrs. Rojas realized they already watched the movie last year and they didn’t want to watch it again.“Now what?” asked Mr. Rojas. “Let’s play cards!” answered Mrs. Rojas. At 8:30 Mr. and Mrs. Rojas started to play cards. They were playing for about 10 minutes when Mr. Rojas looked out the window. The rain changed to snow and the trees were covered in beautiful white snow. “I’m happy we stayed home tonight. It looks beautiful outside but this weather is very dangerous to drive in.” said Mr. Rojas. “You’re right,” said Mrs. Rojas, “but I’m bored. Let’s play some music and dance.”Mr. Rojas was surprised. “Dance? But I really don’t ….”“Oh come on!” Mrs. Rojas insisted. She put on a romantic CD and they b oth started to dance. They were dancing for about 1 minute when suddenly the music stopped and the lights w ent out. Mrs. Rojas laughed. “We’re just not very lucky tonight, are we?” she said. Mr. Rojas said, “Of course we’re lucky! We are together!” He ki ssed her and continued to dance with her, in the dark and without music.21. Why did Mr. and Mrs. Rojas stay at home last night?A. They wanted to stay together.B. The weather was so terrible.C. They had a dinner at home.D. They planned to watch a movie.22. When it started to snow, Mr. and Mrs. Rojas were _________.A. making popcornB. watching a movieC. playing cardsD. dancing to the music23. We can infer from the passage that .A. It was a rainy day in summerB. Mrs. Rojas cooked very wellC. Mr. Rojas loved to dance at firstD. Mr. Rojas was in love with his wifeBStaying with family members or receiving professional care ? Seniors（老年人）in Harbin have a new choice to enrich their life in retirement(退休), as reported.The seniors can take a bus to a day-care nursing home every day between 8 am and 5 pm, just like others go to work, and go back home to be with their families in the evening.In the nursing home, they will receive professional care, have lunch, take part in activities such as calligraphy(书法) and singing, and take university courses designed for them.According to a research, there were 1.75 million seniors by the end of 2017. Less than 10 percent choose to stay in the nursing home while most live at home. Loneliness and shortage of care are the major problems facing the stay-at-home seniors."After my mother passed away, I struggled to take good care of my father," said Zhou, an office worker.Those who have retired parents agree that their parents spend a boring and lonely day at home, watching TV all day and filling their stomach with food. The situation becomes worse in winter when elders are unable to go out due to the cold.However, the cost of such nursing homes is different from person to person but stands at around 2,000 yuan ($290). Another problem is the shortage of facilities (设施). Even if two seniors share a room in the nursing home, the city still lacks(缺少) at least 100,000 such rooms.24. In the day-care nursing home, the seniors can ________.A. go to workB. stay with their familiesC. attend universityD. get professional care25. What is the main problem for seniors staying at home?A. A lot of seniors choose to live at home.B. They are lonely and short of care at home.C. Their children won’t take care of them.D. They are unable to go out especially in winter.26. What information can be inferred from the passage?A. People have no trouble attending their retired parents.B. The day-care nursing home is getting popular among seniors.C. The price of staying in the nursing home remains the same.D. Two seniors must share one room in the day-care nursing home.CWhen I was in my fourth year of teaching, I was also (and am still) a high school track and field coach (田径教练). One year, I had a student, John, who entered my class when he was a junior (三年级学生). John changed to our school from Greece, and seemed to be interested in athletics, so I encouraged him to join our track team. I explained to him that even though he had never taken part in it before, I did believe that he could do well in any event, and I would be willing to coach him at whichever ones interested him. He accepted the offer, and began to work hard at every practice.About a month later, I had found out from other sources that John was afirst-class tennis player, winning various junior awards in his home country. I went to him asking, “John, I really appreciate that you came out for the track team, but why didn’t you play tennis instead? It seems that would interest you a lot more, since you’re so good at it.”John answered, “Well, I like tennis, but you told me that you believed in me, and that you thought I could do well in track, so I wanted to try it for that rea-son.”From then on, I often remember my student’s re-ply.
