21、Three years ago our yellow dog, Abby, passed away due to old age. My experience with my beloved dog became useful years later as I considered getting a new dog—a hiking and adventure companion, a nap buddy (午休伙伴), a watchdog: everything Abby used to be for my family and I when I was growing up.
The process of adopting a puppy (幼犬) can be long and hard. But thanks to large retailers (零售商) like Petco and their weekend “adoption days”, I was able to walk away with my puppy after only a $300 payment, a signature and verbal commitment to take care of her to the best of my abilities.
I wasn't entirely “prepared” for my puppy when I got her, and I can't say my parents were for sure on board when I adopted her, knowing she'd outgrow my living conditions and need the sizable yard and mountain access only my parents' house could provide her with. But I took the leap, supplied her with everything she could possibly need to be happy and develop properly, set up a vet appointment and made a commitment to myself and her to do whatever I had to do to make sure she grew up right.
My dad actually jokes now that he's become a grandpa before he thought he would, and I think there's some truth to that I'm not the mother of a human being yet, but I can draw some similarities between taking care of a baby and raising a puppy. Koda wakes up several times a night to go to the bathroom, eats her pricey puppy food, has accidents on the carpet and in my bed, cries when I'm not around and stops me from concentrating on my homework. Since adopting her, I can't do anything without first considering how my actions and choices will affect my dog.
Puppy parenting isn't easy, and that's part of why it's so rewarding.
【1】What did the author consider important when thinking about adopting a new dog?
A．Getting her parents' approval.
B．Getting a yellow one once again.
C．Getting one like her previous dog.
D．Getting one that didn't demand much care.
【2】What does Paragraph 2 tell us about the authors adopting her dog?
A．Its process was long and hard.
B．It was easier than she had thought.
C．It got some money support on “adoption days”.
D．It cost more money than she expected.
【3】What problem did the author face after adopting her dog?
A．Her living place didn't suit the dog.
B．Her parents didn't really love the dog.
C．She couldn't afford the expensive puppy food.
D．She had trouble in setting up vet appointments.
【4】How did the author most probably find keeping a dog?
A．Tiring but worthy.
B．Easy and rewarding.
C．Exhausting and useless.
D．Terrifying but exciting.
22、 Anyone wanting to throw away their mobile phone can do it in style（时尚地）and may even win a medal－at the Mobile Phone Throwing World Championship.
Originally a local event in a small town close to the Russian border，the fifteenth annual contest drew many throwers from as far as Canada，Russia and Belgium.
Founder Christine Lund describes the event as a good source of light exercise with an environmentally-friendly activity. “There are a lot of mobile phones on the second-hand market，and we are recycling them（before they become poisonous waste），”she said.
The inventive Finns had already given the world the Sauna World Championships and the Wife Carrying Competition before coming up with a new way to make mobile phones even more mobile.
This year’s gold medal went to Finland’s Lassi Etelatalo，who threw a waste Nokia unit a forceful 89.00 meters. “I prepared by javelin（标枪）throwing，I haven’t really practiced throwing mobile phones，”Etelatalo said.
Lund says competitors all have their favorite throwing brand. “People choose by size，by color or by how it fits in the hand……Some believe a heavy model will ensure a long throw，some want a light one.”
【1】According to the passage，we can infer that _______.
A.the contest originated in Russia
B.the contest it held every four years
C.the contest started from the year 2000
D.this year’s gold medal was gotten by Finland’s Lassi Etelatalo
【2】Which of the following mentioned in the passage is NOT the basis to choose the throwing mobile phones？
A.The material of the mobile phones.
B.The color of the mobile phones.
C.The size of the mobile phones.
D.The weight of the mobile phones.
【3】The contest was founded because _______.
A.there are too many second-hand mobile phones

23、 Rome is recognized across the globe for its classical artwork, but recently the city's street art has been drawing attention. While many urban artists stick to painting murals（壁画），one Italian sculptor is resisting the trend with his wonderful works made from an unusual material. Andrea Gandini, a native of Rome in his early twenties, has been recognized for his wood carvings of old tree trunks scattered across the city's landscape.
Gandini's Trocomorto, or "dead trunk" project, began in 2018, when the artist ran out of sculpting clay. That's when he noticed the remains of an old tree stump in his neighborhood. He realized that Rome was full of potential canvases（画布）just waiting to be given a new life. "Bringing trees back to life" is exactly how Gandini and others describe his art.
Due to years of poor care by the city, many trees became diseased and had to be cut down. This resulted in lots of old stumps that degraded the streets of Rome, which were costly to remove. However, they have been a perfect canvas of Gandini, who has completed over 50 carvings across the city.
Gandini gives each old tree trunk a face and personality of its own. By recognizing each formerly living tree as individual, he hopes to give them some dignity in death and respect each of them with their own headstone of sorts. For those that can't make the trip to Rome, Gandini documents his works of art on Facebook.
Gandini's “dead trunk" project reminds us of what Auguste Rodin says, "There is no lack of beauty in the world, but a lack of eyes to find it." All is beautiful in the eyes of the artist, for his keen eye sees through the heart of all living things. To discover its character is to pierce its outer form and touch its inner truth. This "truth" is also "beauty".
【1】What has drawn people's attention recently in Rome according to the passage?
A.Its classical artwork. B.Its traditional murals.
C.Its street wood carvings. D.Its unusual material.
【2】Which statement is NOT correct about Gandini's works?
A.They are full of life. B.They follow the trend of murals.
C.They beautify the city. D.They are appreciated by some artists.
【3】What does Gandini try to put in his works?
A.Dignity and respect. B.Beauty and kindness.
C.Hope and personality. D.Death and art.
【4】What can we learn from this passage?
A.Beauty is always around for keen eyes.
B.Inner truth is difficult to find.
C.We live in a world lacking beauty.
D.Grandini is a person who loves nature and truth.
24、The oceans are where life on Earth began and they continue to be the home to an incredibly various range of life. It has been estimated(估计)that there are around 230, 000 different marine (海洋)species, but some marine biologists think that there could well be ten times that number still waiting to be discovered.
Oceans have always played an important part in human life. They serve many functions Since the beginning of time oceans have provided the world with a transport network for goods and people. That's why most of the major cities of the world are close to the sea. Countless numbers of people from other countries have travelled the seas to find a new and better life, while others have been transported very much against their will, the evil Slave Trade being a case in point. World trade has always depended on ocean transport and the world's navies grew up in order to protect these sea trade routes.
The ocean has traditionally been a source of nutritious food, but sadly the general view has always been that what was there was for the taking. There has been little regard for sustainability (可持续性)and in the words of Greenpeace: "We are now damaging our oceans on a scale unimaginable to most people."
Large commercial fishing boats catch everything, but not everything is wanted or allowed due to some restrictions and vast amounts of dead fish are thrown back into the sea. Whole marine ecosystems can be wiped out as huge nets are dragged across the ocean floor, destroying entire home ground forever.
Overfishing in this way does not enable the fish to sustain their population. As a result, numbers fall until the point is reached when there are no longer any fish left to catch. Some species have been fished to extinction and some are almost on the edge. It is said that due to overfishing, large predatory (捕食性的)fish like cod and tuna are both down to the last 10% of their original number.
【1】What do we know from Paragraph 1?
A．We have known enough about ocean life.
B．We need more exploration about ocean life.
C．2, 300, 000 marine species have been discovered.
D．230, 000 marine species are expected to be discovered.
【2】Why are most of the large cities close to the sea?
A．To attract more and more visitors.
B．To appreciate the beautiful sights.
C．For the natural resources in the sea.
D．For the convenience of transportation.
【3】What's people's general attitude to the ocean?
A．Making use of ocean life wisely.
B．Treating ocean life in a friendly way.
C．Paying much attention to its sustainability.
D．Getting whatever they like from the ocean.
【4】What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?
A．The sustainability of oceans is important.
B．The extinction of some species is normal.
C．Ocean life offers much to us human beings.
D．Overfishing has led to no more fish species.
