21、   In the 13th century, the famous Italian traveler, Marco Polo, traveled a long way to China. During his stay in China, he saw many wonderful things. One of the things he discovered was that the Chinese used paper money. In Western countries, people didn't use paper money until 15th century. However, people in China began to use paper money in the 7th century.

A Chinese man called Cai Lun invented paper almost 2,000 years ago. He put these pieces of paper together and made them in a book.

Now paper comes from trees. We use a lot of paper every day. If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth. If there are no trees, there will be no paper. So how can we save paper? We can use both of every piece of paper, especially when we are making notes. We can choose drinks in bottles instead of those in paper packets (小包). We can also use handkerchiefs (手帕) and not paper ones. When we go shopping, we can use fewer paper bags. If the shop assistant does give you a paper bag, we can save it and reuse it later.

Everyone can help to save paper. If we all think carefully, we can help protect trees. We should do it now before it is too late.

【1】When Marco Polo was in China, he ________.

A.discovered Cai Lun invented paper

B.learned to make paper

C.discovered Chinese people used paper money

【2】People in Western countries first used paper money in the ________ century.

A.17th B.15th C.7th

【3】Which of the following is TRUE?

A.The Chinese people used paper money later than the people in Western countries.

B.A Chinese man called Cai Lun invented paper money about two thousand years ago.

C.If we keep on wasting paper, we will have no paper to use.

【4】Which is the best title for the passage?

A.Saving Paper B.The History of Paper C.Cotton Handkerchiefs Back Again

22、   Where did humans come from? An Australian researcher believes that she’s found the answer: river valley in the African country of Botswana (博瓦纳).

Professor Vanessa Hayes from the Garvan Institute of Medical Research in Sydney said she and her team have traced (追踪) modern humans back to small group of people who lived in this valley, according to the BBC.

“It’s an extremely large area, it would have been very lush (苍翠繁茂的), and it would have actually provided a suitable habitat for modern humans,” she said. She and her team studied mitochondrial (线粒体的) DNA (mtDNA) from people who live in south Africa, such as the Khoisan people. This type of DNA is only passed down from mother to child. This makes it easier to trace one’s ancestry (祖先), according to Business Insider. By tracing mtDNA back through different generations, the team concluded that every person alive today is related to a woman who lived in Botswana.

However, some experts doubt Hayes’ findings, saying that studies like hers are no longer important or necessary. “The idea that we’re looking for a single origin [of modern humans] is out of fashion,” said John Hawks, a researcher at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, US, in Popular Science.

There are many other locations around the world where humans could have gotten their start. It is likely that mankind appeared in many places at the same time. “I increasingly think that there probably wasn’t a single population in which modern humans evolved (进化). If that is the case, there is no ‘homeland’,” said Ryan Raaum, who researches African population genetics (遗传学) at Lehman College, US.

【1】According to Hayes, where did humans come from?

A.Australia. B.Botswana. C.South Africa. D.Latin America.

【2】Hayes and her team studied mtDNA because ________.

A.it is the most common type of DNA humans share B.there is a new technology to test mtDNA

C.it is only passed down from mother to child D.both women and men can take mtDNA tests

【3】According to Hawks, Hayes’s study is ________.

A.important B.wrong C.fascinating D.unnecessary

【4】What is the story mainly about?

A.New findings about the origin of humans. B.New findings about mtDNA.

C.The evolution of humans. D.The habitats of ancient humans..

23、

A．buy MTR tickets

C．keep safe at home

D．be a good passenger

【2】When you hear a "beep" sound, ________.

24、   Mr. Hunt came from a poor family. He had three brothers and two sisters. His father worked hard but wasn’t paid much. And his mother did all the housework at home. They were both able but they couldn’t get enough money for their family.

Mr. Hunt was in school for only three years and he had to stop to help his parents though he was good at his lessons. When he was sixteen, he came to the city and began to work in a small factory.

So the young man tried to save everything and hoped to have his own house.

It was one fine Sunday. The old woman wanted to have a picnic on the top of the hill. She told Mr. Hunt to drive her car. But sometimes she told him to turn left and sometimes to turn right. The young man had to listen to her. At a crossing the lights were red but she made him turn left. The policeman stopped them and told the young man to give his license（驾照）to him.

25、根据所给首字母填写单词，完成短文。

次北固山下（唐  王湾）

客路青山外，行舟绿水前。

潮平两岸阔，风正一帆悬。

海日生残夜，江春入旧年。

乡书何处达，归雁洛阳边。

Passing by the Northern Mountains

My boat goes by green mountains high, And passes through the river blue. The banks seem wide at the full tide; A sail with ease hangs in soft breeze. The sun brings light born of last night; New spring invades old year which fades. How can I send word to my friend? Homing wild geese, fly westward please!

People often say that spring is a s【1】 of hope and energy(活力).This poem by Tang Dynasty poet Wang Wan(693-751) d【2】 this hope and energy.

Wang lived during the most glorious(辉煌的) period of the Tang Dynasty. This poem is not only about spring and natural beauty, but a【3】 a metaphor(暗喻) the time he lived in.

The f【4】two lines tell us that the poet is t【5】 on a boat. The mountains are green and the river is blue. In the next two lines, the poet describes the open water and a hanging sail. The characters“阔” and “正”s  5  very broad and grand(宏大的)views, symbolizing the justness(公正)and social development of the dynasty.

Then the poet writes, a new sun is rising, wiping out(抹去)darkness, and the spring is c【6】 ,driving the winter away. These two lines are f【7】of hope. They also show the poet’s aspirations(抱负）as a young w【8】.

The poem ends with wild geese that are flying b【9】home after a long winter. Wang hopes the wild geese can send a message to his friends and family-he is looking f【10】to a bright future for himself and for the country.
