21、Each Indian tribe had a different language. Many Indians never learned any language except their own. Do you know how Indians from different tribes talked to each other? They had two ways to talk without sound. One way was by sign language. Another way is by signals.
Sign language is a way of talking by using signs. Indians used sign language when they met strangers. In this way, they could find out whether the stranger was a friend or an enemy. In Indian sign language, signs were made with the hands. One sign meant "man". Another meant "horse".
To tell the time of day when something happened, an Indian pointed to the sky. He showed where the sun had been at the time.
Indians usually used signals when they wanted to send messages to someone far away. To make signals, an Indian might use a pony. He might use a blanket. Or he might use smoke, a mirror or fire arrows.
To signal that he had seen many animals, an Indian rode his pony in a large circle. Sometimes the Indian gave a signal like this and then went away to hide. This means that there was danger.
The blanket signal was visible from far away. An Indian held the corners of a blanket in his hands. Then he began to swing the blanket from side to side in front of him. An Indian could send many different signals with his blanket.
He could also send many signals with a mirror. He usually used the mirror to warn someone of danger. Or he attempted to get the attention of a person far away. But he also used it to send messages in code. Of course, mirrors could be used only when the sun was shining. At night, Indians used fire arrows for signaling.
Now you can see that Indians didn't need to learn each other's language. They could talk to one another by using signals or sign language.
【1】For signaling, an Indian held .
A. a blanket in front of him by the corners
B. the corners of a blanket and swang it in front of him
C. one side of the blanket and let someone else hold the other side
D. the blanket corners and ran from one side to the other
【2】An Indian used a mirror to .
A. warn someone of danger B. get the attention of someone far away
C. send messages in code D. all of the above
【3】The underlined word "pony" in the fourth paragraph probably means " ".
A. camel B. goat
C. horse D. donkey
22、Which boy hasn’t dreamed of being a cool secret agent (特工)? The wonderful fighting abilities and the world-saving adventures are much more colourful than most people’s everyday lives. Well, Cody Banks is just like any other boy，except that he is not just dreaming. He has a big secret his friends never know about.

23、The COVID-19 pandemic (流行病) has changed how American schools operate. Over the past two years, students and teachers in many places have depended on virtual learning to slow the spread of COVID-19. Now many schools are open again. But attacks by cyber-criminals (网络罪犯) are making it hard for schools to return to normal.
Cyber-criminals use computer networks and software called ransomware to take control of computer systems that schools use to keep student information. The criminals say they will return control to the schools only if they receive a payment.
For teachers at a middle school in Albuquerque, New Mexico, the first sign of a widespread problem came during an early morning video meeting. Nobody could open attendance records, and everyone was locked out of class lists and test results.
Schools in New Mexico, Maryland, Florida, Wisconsin, New Jersey and other states have also reported problems with cyber-attacks.
It is said that there have been over 1, 200 attacks on schools since 2016. Over 200 of the attacks used ransomware to take control of school systems. Other forms of attack include people destroying video lessons.
In Baltimore, Maryland, a cyber-attack in late 2020 closed schools and made it difficult for students to continue leaning from home. Recent news stories have reported that it cost nearly $ 10 million to improve the school system’s information database and add safety to fight against future attacks.
The attacks are creating discussions on how to stop the attacks. Some people say teachers should use paper to keep track of student information instead of databases. But many teachers say that would make their work take much longer.
The crimes are also causing school systems and states to spend more money than usual. In New Mexico, state leaders are working to add $45 million to the budget (预算) to create a cyber safely program by 2027.
【1】What is ransomware used to do?

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。
It was our first evening dog-sitting while our daughter was on holiday in Costa Rica. Louie, her dog, searched the house for his “mommy”. Then, that disappointed but determined dog had a plan.
While my husband Paul and I were watching TV, we heard loud sounds on the stairs. Something heavy was being dragged (拖) down the stairs. I turned around and found this six-month-old dog was dragging his large carrier down the stairs.
Louie looked at us, moved his tail and ran back up the stairs. We were curious about what he was doing.
We watched in amazement as Louie dragged his personal things, one by one, down the stairs: his blanket, bowl, ball and sweater. This project took most of the evening, and Louie never got tired.
What happened next made us realize that not only did this dog have a purpose but he obviously put thought and reasoning into each move. He put his things in the carrier. This was extremely difficult as the carrier had a lip (口) that was taller than him.
After Louie finished packing his things, he tried to jump inside. Once inside, he got the zipper (拉链) between his teeth and, with all the strength he had, he pulled up the zipper. I admired his patience. Then he lay down and went to sleep.
The message was very clear. He wanted to see his “mommy”. He had seen her pack her suitcase and go away. He must do the same so he could find her. He stayed in the carrier all night, and when I opened it the next morning, he was very excited. Believing he had arrived, he jumped up—but his “mommy” was not there. Then, I started making notes about Louie’s behaviour.
Louie surprised us with new activities every day. He liked going for a car ride with my husband. The possibility of stopping at McDonald’s for chicken was his favorite.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
One day, my husband didn’t stop at McDonald’s and left Louie in the car with the window open.
