21、   “Love is still alive!” Wang Zhiru from Jiangxi Academy of Forestry, said excitedly when receiving a picture of a white crane on January 3rd 2019. The white crane they named Love was saved and set free in early 2018.

Love was first found on April 24th 2018, when Li Zengming, a farmer, drove past a reservoir in the countryside of Nanchang, capital of Jiangxi Province. Seeing it trying to fly but falling again and again, Li thought that it might be hurt. He drove to the shore and went into the water to rescue it. “I saw the white crane with dull eyes and a weak body. It was probably hurt. If I let it alone, it would be in danger,” Li recalled. After more than half an hour, Li finally took the white crane back to the shore.

Then he called his uncle, an experienced animal saver. for help. “Come over immediately and let’s send it to the police station right away” said his uncle. When seeing the weak wild crane, Jiang Qingchun from the Five-Star Police Station, put down his work and checked it carefully.

“At the end of April, migratory (迁移的) birds usually return to the north. It's abnormal for a white crane to still be living nearby. It may be left behind because of its poor health.” Jiang said. He contacted Wang at the Jiangxi Academy of Forestry for help. Wang's team found Love did not seem to be hurt or have illness, but it suffered from hunger and tiredness. After five days' treatment, its weight rose from 3.75kg to 4kg.

Being kept for long will be bad for birds' ability to survive in the wild. Wang's team decided on May 2nd to set it free at a place in northern China so that it could join the migrating group heading for Siberia in Russia. On May 8th, Love was set free at the Momoge National Nature Reserve.

【1】When did the farmer find Love for the first time?

A. On May 2nd,2019. B. On May 8th,2019.

C. On April 24th,2018. D. On January 3rd,2019.

【2】The underlined word “abnormal” in Paragraph 4 means _______.

A. unhappy B. unusual C. unknown D. unlucky

【3】What was wrong with Love?

A. It was hurt. B. It was weak and lost.

C. It was dead. D. It was hungry and tired.

【4】Why was Love set free in northern China?

A. Because Love was able to fly again. B. Because Love lost his ability to fly.

C. Because Wang's team couldn't keep it any more. D. Because Love could join the migrating group there.

【5】What is the best title of the passage?

A. Love hurt B. Love lost C. Love found D. Love gone

22、

Living in a foreign country can be exciting, but it’s also a difficult experience. Today I want to share my personal experience of living abroad (在国外) with you.

Living in a foreign country, I’m able to learn another language. I came to Turkey to learn art in a college two years ago. So far, I have learnt thousands of Turkish words. And knowing a second language can be very helpful (有用的) for one’s work, especially (尤其) for those who want to work in a foreign company. What’s more, living in a foreign country helps people to get to know about a different culture, which gives them a new idea about life.

However, there are also some disadvantages (缺点) of living abroad. Firstly, not knowing the spoken language of the country can be the biggest problem. And when I live in this country far away from my hometown, I miss my family and friends from time to time. We can only talk on the Internet. They also worry about me so much.

In short, living abroad alone is not as interesting as others expect. However, it can be an important experience that makes a great difference to my life.

【1】Why did the writer come to Turkey?

A.To work. B.To study. C.To take a trip.

【2】How many advantages (优点) of living abroad are mentioned in the passage?

【5】From the passage, we can know that _______.

B.the writer still can’t speak Turkish well

C.the writer’s friends care about him a lot

23、   It's incredible to think that people haven't even been using the Internet for 30 years. When the Internet was first used, you had to connect through a telephone line and it could be very slow.Things have changed a lot since then. Today nearly four billion people have a mobile gadget(小器具), such as a smartphone, a tablet, or both. And with Wi­Fi in many public spaces, it's easier than ever to connect.

Many agree that mobile gadgets and the apps on them are useful. They make our lives so much easier. We can do things like searching for a word in the dictionary or using a flashlight with just the swipe of a finger! At any time and place, we can send and receive e­mails, play games, or look up information. We can also share photos and videos or chat with friends and family using mobile technology. Smartphones have made it possible to send texts. By 2015, people were sending eight trillion texts per year. It's now the most popular way to communicate.

Because it's so useful, people spend a lot of time on the Internet. Probably too much time! In fact, the average person is online for almost four and a half hours each day. We connect to the Internet with a smartphone more than any other device. Some people worry that we spend too much time with our gadgets. What about you? Do you spend too much time on the Internet?

【1】When the Internet was first used, you had to connect through a(n) ________.

A.smartphone B.tablet C.telephone line D.app

【2】How many people have a mobile gadget today?

A.About one billion. B.About two million.

C.About three million. D.About four billion.

【3】The underlined word “swipe”in the passage means “________”.

A.love B.hit C.study D.way

A.a report B.a fiction C.a newspaper D.a movie

【5】What is the main idea of this passage?

A.A smartphone and a tablet are very useful.

B.Never spend too much time on computers.

C.The Internet is useful but we shouldn't spend too much time on it.

D.The Internet makes our lives much easier.

24、   Most people hope to have a memory which helps them succeed in study, work and life. Can memory be improved? Luckily, hundreds of studies in the past 50 years have already given us a clear answer.

A healthy lifestyle keeps your brain young and memory sharp. First of all, it is necessary to have a healthy diet. Eating more food rich in B vitamins and Vitamin E, such as vegetables and lean meat, helps you have a better memory. Second, doing exercise can keep your brain alive, too. Proper exercise provides much needed oxygen for the brain. Running, riding a bike, swimming and even walking two or three times a week are helpful. Third, getting enough sleep is important. Only when your brain gets a good rest, can it work well. The healthier your lifestyle is, the better your memory will become, but do not expect a sudden change—it takes a long time to make a difference.

Memory skills help you remember things better. The following three are the most widely used. Chunking is a way of remembering a piece of information by cutting it into smaller ones. For example, to memorize a ten—digit telephone number 2127983630, you can divide the digits into three groups: first 212, then 798, and lastly 3630.This method is much more effective. Organization means organizing information into groups of the same kind. For example, trees, grass and flowers are plants; tigers, pandas, horses and cows are animals. Imagery is remembering newly learnt information by using your imagination and connecting it with something that you are familiar with.

However, memory skills will hardly work if you don't understand the information. What's more, only a regular (有规律的) review can make the memory last long. That is why students are always advised to go over what they have learnt after one day and then after three days, and then use it as regularly as possible.

Human brains are like muscles that need nutrients and exercise to become stronger. If you make a few lifestyle changes and try some memory skills, you can certainly improve your memory.

【1】How many ways of keeping a healthy lifestyle are mentioned in the passage?

A.Two B.Three C.Four D.Five

【2】Which of the following examples is the use of the skill "organization"?

A.Remembering the word "yellow" by putting it into the group of "color".

B.Remembering the meaning of the word "red" by connecting it with fire.

C.Remembering a long and difficult passage by understanding its meaning.

D.Remembering the post number 0708591 by diving it into 070 and 8571

【3】According to the passage, why should students go over what they have learnt?

A.To use it better every day B.To understand it in a better way

C.To improve memory skills D.To remember it for a longer time

【4】Which of the following maybe the best title of the passage?

A.Does Good Memory Help You Succeed.

B.A Healthy Lifestyle, A good Memory.

C.Memory Needs Skillful Training.

D.A Healthy Lifestyle with Memory Skills, You Get a good memory.

25、阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的词，或填入括号中所给单词的正确形式。

When I told my friends I was going to move 【1】 the city to the countryside, they couldn’t believe it. I was worried because I’d never been out of the city before. Would life be very different? Well, see for yourself.

Many things are different between the city and the countryside. In the city, I lived in a tall building with my parents. Our building was filled 【2】 people, but I only knew a few of 【3】 (they). Now we live in an old farmhouse. Our nearest neighbors are about one kilometer away. 【4】 all the neighbors are friendly. They often 【5】 (come) to visit us with lots of food.

However, some things in the city and the countryside are the same. In the city, my mom and I loved to go 【6】 (shop) on the weekend. We went to different shopping centers. Here in the countryside we 【7】 shop in farmers’ markets on the weekend. The greatest thing that is the same is friends. I make some good friends in both the city and the countryside. We do 【8】 (homework) and read books together every day.

When I think about the 【9】 (important) things in my life, like family and friends, maybe there aren’t so many 【10】 (different) between the city and the countryside. Personally, I think they’re both great.
