21、When you think of the Arctic, you imagine an icy land of pure white snow. Others imagine it as the last really clean place left on earth. We have polluted the deepest oceans with plastic rubbish. “And now”, CNN says, “It's the Arctic's turn.”

German scientists have recently found microplastics (微塑料) in Arctic snow. Microplastics are pieces of plastic smaller than 5 millimeters. Sadly, the scientists found 1800 pieces of microplastics per liter of snow.

How is plastic pollution reaching the Arctic? According to scientists, “It's clear that most of the microplastics in the snow come from the air.” They fall off the plastic objects and are moved by the wind, just like dust. They mix with ice in the air and fall to the ground as snow. Finding these plastics in Arctic snow means that we may breathe them in.

Are they bad for us? Scientists cannot answer this question for now, according to the WHO. We do know that our bodies cannot take in “large” pieces of microplastics. However, if the plastics are small enough, they can find ways into our bodies and stay there for a long time, which can be bad for our health. What's more, earlier studies have shown that microplastics may contribute to lung cancer risk.

Microplastics have also been found in rivers and oceans around the world. Earlier research has found that they flow over long distances and into our oceans, hurting ecosystems along the way. They start in our wastewater, then flow into rivers and out to the sea, where they are eaten by sea animals. If people then eat these animals, it means that we're eating the plastic as well.

【1】What can we learn from Paragraph 1?

A．The Arctic has been polluted by plastic rubbish

B．The Arctic is an icy land of pure white snow.

C．The Arctic is a beautiful icy land with clean air.

D．The Arctic is the last rally clean place left on earth

【2】Where do most of the microplatics in the snow come from?

A．From water.

B．From air.

C．From wind.

D．From food.

【3】What does the underlined expression mean in the fourth paragraph?

A．Reduce.

B．Donate.

C．Cause.

D．Help.

【4】How does the writer end this passage?

A．By advising us to drink clean water.

B．By asking people not to eat sea animals.

C．By showing the beauty of Arctic.

D．By telling the seriousness of plastic pollution.

23、   April is National Poetry Month and naturally a great time to explore the powers of poetry. Reading and writing poetry engage our senses along with our emotions. Both have highly therapeutic (治疗的) effects on the mind.

The structure of a poem favors brief language yet the best poems also capture brief detail, making them powerful in getting a message across to the reader. Writing poetry requires extremely disciplined choice of words and the number of words, to create a sharp and accurate snapshot of the poet’s feeling. This combination of conciseness and detail gives the reader open access to the poet’s mind and enables the reader to truly connect with him.

Writing poetry requires us to be open and honest about our feelings so that we can voice them through pen and paper. This acknowledgement of our innermost thoughts allows us to be true to ourselves and boosts our self-respect.

The best poetry is written when we are truly in the midst of our emotions. This is when the release of emotions to pen and then paper as an outlet calms us and enables us to move forward.

Poetry’s powerful healing qualities have been documented during both world wars and the American civil war: poems were read to soldiers to help them cope with sufferings and the cruelty of war. Doctors would write poems for patients, emotionally connecting with them. A good example of this is John Keats who also trained as a doctor.

Poetry has also been used by modern-day doctors and physicians at Yale University School of Medicine and University College London School of Medicine. Yale actually has a committee that maintains a required literary reading list which includes poetry. Poetry allows both the doctor and the patient to understand the emotions that the patient might be going through.

The use of poetry continues to grow as a recognized form of therapy. More psychotherapists across the US, UK and Europe continue to use poetry therapy as part of their practice. Globally the International Federation for Poetry Therapy sets standards of excellence in the training of practitioners in the field of poetry therapy, qualifying them to practice.

【1】What contributes to the highly therapeutic power of reading and writing poetry?

A.The close link in emotions between readers and poets.

B.The accurate snapshot of poets’ feeling.

C.The deliberate choice of words.

D.The brief structure of poetry.

【2】According to the author, which of the following is most likely to be a best poem?

A.A poem applying effective writing techniques.

B.A poem describing the beauty of nature by imagination.

C.A poem borrowing ideas from other poets’ masterpieces.

D.A poem conveying one’s real thoughts and true feelings.

【3】The author explains the use of poetry as a form of therapy in history by ______ .

A.analyzing causes B.giving examples

C.making a comparison D.presenting research findings

【4】What message does the passage mainly convey?

A.Poetry is an opening to let out your emotions.

B.Poetry is a good medicine to cure a variety of diseases.

C.Poetry’s healing qualities can make a difference to a reader’s mind.

D.Poetry’s unique art form makes poems gain wide popularity in history.

24、My father had returned from his business visit to London when I came in, rather late, to supper. I could tell at once that he and my mother had been discussing something. In that half-playful, half-serious way I knew so well, he said," How would you like to go to Eton?"

"You bet, "I cried quickly catching the joke. Everyone knew it was the most expensive, the most famous of schools. You had to be entered at birth, if not before. Besides, even at 12 or 13, I understood my father. He disliked any form of showing off. He always knew his proper station in life, which was in the middle of the middle class, our house was medium-sized; he had avoided joining Royal Liverpool Golf Club and went to a smaller one instead; though once he had got a second-hand Rolls-Royce at a remarkably low price, he felt embarrassed driving it, and quickly changed it for an Austin 1100.

This could only be his delightful way of telling me that the whole boarding school idea was to be dropped. Alas! I should also have remembered that he had a liking for being different from everyone else, if it did not conflict（冲突）with his fear of drawing attention to himself.

It seemed that he had happened to be talking to Graham Brown of the London office, a very nice fellow, and Graham had a friend who had just entered his boy at the school, and while he was in that part of the world he thought he might just as well phone them. I remember my eyes stinging（刺痛）and my hands shaking with the puzzlement of my feelings. There was excitement, at the heart of great sadness.

"Oh, he doesn't want to go away," said my mother, "You shouldn't go on like this.” "It's up to him," said my father. "He can make up his own mind.”

【1】The house the writer's family lived in was _______ .

A. the best they could afford

B. right for their social position

C. for showing off

D. rather small

【2】His father sold his Roils-Royce because _______ .

A. it made him feel uneasy

B. it was too old to work well

C. it was too expensive to possess

D. it was too cheap

【3】What was the writer's reaction to the idea of going to Eton?

A. He was very unhappy. B. He didn't believe it.

C. He was delighted. D. He had mixed feelings.

【4】We can know from the passage that _______ .

A. Children who can go to Eton are very famous

B. Children can go to Eton if they will

C. It is very difficult for a child to get admitted by Eton

D. Children don't have the right to decide whether they will go to Eton

I had to take painkillers last night in order to have a（ n）__________ . Five months ago, I broke my shoulder and pulled muscles in my back. I recovered well and I had the __________ to move, but all the shoveling was just a little much too __________ for it. It was all good this morning, though.

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。续写的词数应为150左右。

Third Grader Miya was sitting by the desk thinking about her composition. At the end of each year, the students will be given a writing task about the person(s) he/she is most thankful to. Miya could remember she wrote about her parents, who loved her and took care of her in grade one and her teacher, who encouraged her to be brave to raise questions in grade two. This year, she was supposed to write about somebody else. But who? The composition will be due next week. Miya racked her brains (绞尽脑汁) but still had no idea.

Looking up from her empty composition paper, Miya noticed that the other students were collecting their books and getting ready to go home. She decided to give up thinking and get on her way back home. Who knows? Maybe a good idea might come to her mind the next day.

Just at that time, John ran into the classroom and came up to Miya. John is head of the school drama club, in which Miya is a new member.

“Miya, I would like you to play a role in the drama show.” said John.

Miya agreed gladly. She loved drama and had always been dreaming of making her appearance on the stage.

Then John introduced the drama to her. It was about the adventure of three boys to the wild west. Miya was supposed to play a small role, a farm girl who discovered the hungry boys, invited them to the farm and treated them with corn bread.

She was to appear at the ending part of the drama and her lines were short and easy: Hi, buddies. You look weak. Would you like to come with me? Mom is making corn bread. It’s the most delicious in the world. Surely Miya wouldn’t have any problem remembering them. Everything went on well and the big day arrived three days later.

The drama show attracted a large audience. The hall was crowded with excited students and teachers. The three older boys went on stage and started their “adventure” to the wild west.

注意：1.续写的词数应为150左右；

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

As Miya waited behind the curtain for her turn to perform, nervousness started to grow insider her.
