21、 My dad was a farmer in the Midwest and he spent his winters selling insurance. Dad could really talk up anyone and his favorite thing to do was find out their income. Once we were at Chicago's O'Hare airport. Dad was sitting with me as I waited for my flight to Fort Lauderdale. A Russian guy who sat down next to my dad could not speak a word of English but this did not stop my dad. He found out his business, how many children he had and of course how much he made.
I used to be a little embarrassed by this, but I changed later. It was in the last year of dad's life. As I was home visiting with my husband and twins and I was in the car with my mom, she told me a story about how she was in the doctor's office with dad and how he was his usual self-talking away to the others in the waiting room. She said he started talking to this young man in a wheel chair who could not talk, could not move his arms or head, really couldn't do anything. But dad was asking questions and got the young man to smile in response. And he carried on like that with the disabled man till he was called back to the doctor's office. When the young man and his father got up to see the doctor, the father of the young man came over and shook my dad's hands and said, "Thank you for speaking to my son. Most people just turn away when they see him.'
My father ended up dying later that month, a sudden heart attack. Fortunately, all the 9 children of his had been home that summer to visit. I told this story at his funeral（葬礼）. Truly, my dad was one who never knew a stranger.

22、
Forget Cyclists, Pedestrians Are Real Danger We are having a debate about this topic. Here are some letters from our readers. ■ Yes, many cyclists behave dangerously. Many drivers are disrespectful of cyclists. But pedestrians are probably the worst offenders. People of all ages happily walk along the pavement with eyes and hands glued to the mobile phone, quite unaware of what is going on around them. They may even do the same thing while crossing a road at a pedestrian crossing or elsewhere. The rest of us have to evade (避让) them or just stand still to wait for the unavoidable collision. The real problem is that some pedestrians seem to be, at least for the moment, in worlds of their own that are, to them, much more important than the welfare of others. — Michael Horan ■ I loved the letter from Bob Brooks about cyclists (Viewpoints, May 29). I am afraid they seem to think they own the roads. I was walking across Altrincham Road one morning when a cyclist went round me and on being asked what he was doing he shouted at me. The government built a cycle lane on the road but it is hardly used. The police do nothing. What a laugh they are! The cyclists should all have to be made to use the cycle lanes and wear helmets, fluorescent (发荧光的) jackets and lights at night and in the morning. They should pay some sort of tax and be fined for not wearing them. — Carol Harvey ■ Cyclists jump on and off pavements (which are meant for pedestrians), ride at speed along the pavements, and think they have a special right to go through traffic lights when they are on red. I was almost knocked down recently by a cyclist riding on the pavement when there was a cycle lane right next to him. Other road users, including horse riders, manage to obey the rules so why not cyclists? It’s about time they were registered and insured, so when they do hit a pedestrian or a vehicle, or cause an accident, at least they can be treated and there might be an opportunity to claim compensation. — JML Write to Viewpoints of the newspaper. |
【1】Michael Horan wrote the letter mainly to show that ________.
A．drivers should be polite to cyclists
B．road accidents can actually be avoided
C．walking while using phones hurts one’s eyes
D．some pedestrians are a threat to road safety
【2】What is a complaint of JML?
A．Very few drivers are insured.
B．Cyclists ride fast on pavements.
C．Pedestrians go through red traffic lights.
D．Horse riders disrespect other road users.
【3】The three letters present viewpoints on ________.
A．the real source of road danger
B．ways to improve road facilities
C．measures to punish road offences
D．increased awareness of road rules
23、 The Cassini-Huygens space probe, which reached Saturn last week has sent back amazing photographs of the planet's famous rings viewed in ultraviolet light. 【1】 The different colors show exactly what the rings are. The red means the ring contains tiny pieces of rock and the blue and green is likely to be a mixture of water and frozen gases. 【2】 That's why it is so light and it could float on water—if a big enough ocean could be found!
【3】 It aims to explore the planet and its rings and moons. It was launched in 1997 and its mission was to explore the “gas giant” planet, which is the furthest planet to be seen from the Earth without a telescope.
Scientists say the spacecrafts four-year tour of Saturn may tell them how the rings are formed. 【4】
The probe has sent back pictures of some of Saturn's moons, including Phoebe and Titan. Phoebe has a strange shape. 【5】 Saturn's biggest moon, Titan, is believed to be the only body in the solar system other than the Earth with liquid on the surface. The images of Phoebe and Titan look strangely like photos of the Earth and our own moon, taken decades ago by the earliest space missions.
A．Saturn itself is made of gases.
B．The pictures are hard to take in space.
C．The probe is an international space project.
D．They will discover more secrets about the spacecraft.
E．The pictures show them in shades of blue, green and red.
F．It will also study the planet's atmosphere and magnetic field.
G．Unlike other planets and their moons, it is not perfectly round.
24、 If there is any such thing as a sea monster, chances are that it looks much like a frilled shark (皱鳃鲨)! This fearsome but interesting creature is one of the most rarely sighted species on earth. Let’s take a closer look at the habitat, appearance and feeding behavior of the frilled shark.
While very little is known about the frilled shark, it is thought to live in the deepest, darkest parts of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans and only come to the surface when sick or injured. It is believed that they are able to survive at a depth of about 5,150 feet but are more commonly found in waters 50-200 feet deep. There is a small but convincing body of research that suggests the frilled shark is a vertical migrator, moving from deep to deeper waters on a regular basis.
While this mysterious beast is called a shark, many believe it looks more like an eel with a long, slim body about five to six feet in length. It has a head that’s triangular in shape similar to that of a poisonous snake and large oval eyes giving off a strange and frightening green light. The unusual creature has six pairs of gills (鳃), each with the frilled edges for which the sea monster was named.
The feeding behavior of the frilled shark has never been studied or even observed by human eyes. However, it is almost certainly a predator (食肉动物). After all, researchers believe, why else would it need 300 sharp teeth?! Scientists theorize that these dangerous teeth make it possible for a slow moving fish like the frilled shark to catch squid and other deep-sea creatures.
As research into the habitat, appearance and feeding behavior of this strange creature continues, there’s a good chance that we will gain a full understanding of this unusual species one day. Until then, the frilled shark remains one of the great mysteries of the deep.
【1】What can we infer about the frilled shark from Paragraph 2?
A.It is hard to see them in a healthy state on the ocean surface.
B.They migrate from ocean to ocean in the deepest waters.
C.They usually live in oceans at a depth of over 5,150 feet.
D.It is a rare species threatened by human activities.
【2】Where can you find the information about the shark’s appearance?
A.In Paragraph 2. B.In Paragraph 3.
C.In Paragraph 4. D.In Paragraph 5.
【3】The frilled shark got its name because of______.
A.the place where it was found B.the place where it was born
C.its appearance D.its character
【4】How do scientists know the frilled shark is a predator?
A.From its behavior. B.From its habitat.
C.From its teeth. D.From its gills.
【5】What is the author’s attitude to solving the mystery of the frilled shark?
A.Doubtful. B.Cautious.
C.Disapproving. D.Optimistic.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
[1] My first year of high school felt awkward. After I left junior high as a straight-A student, it felt strange starting over as a freshman. And to make matters worse, my closest friend went to a different high school. I felt very isolated.
[2] I missed my old teachers so much that I would go back and visit them. They would encourage me to get involved in school activities so that I could meet new people. They told me that in time I would adjust and probably end up loving my new school more than I had loved my old one.
[3] One Sunday afternoon not long after I had started high school, I was sitting at home doing homework. It was a cold and windy fall day, and we had a fire going in our fireplace. My mother kept stoking the fire to keep the house nice and warm. Suddenly, I smelled something strange, and then I noticed smoke pouring in through the seams (接缝处) of the ceiling. The smoke began to fill the room so quickly that we could barely see anything. Feeling about our way to the front door, we managed to get into the front yard. By the time we made our way outside, the whole roof was engulfed (吞没) in flames and it was spreading quickly. I ran to the neighbors to call the fire department.
[4] Five hours later, the fire was finally out. Our house was almost completely burned down. Everything was gone in the smoke. The firemen wouldn’t let us go back into the house that night. It was still too dangerous. We piled into the car with just the clothes on our backs, and made our way to my grandparents’ house to spend the night.
[5] On Monday, I went to school. When the fire broke out, I was wearing pajamas (睡衣), and I had no shoes! I had kicked them off when I was doing my homework. “Why I have to be here!” I cried inside, head hung low.
