21、   Have you ever run into a careless cell phone user on the street? Perhaps they were busy talking, texting or checking updates on WeChat (微信) without looking at what was going on around them. As the number of this new “type” of human has kept rising, they have been given a new name — phubbers (低头族).

Recently, a cartoon created by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people in their short film. Phubbers with different social identities(身份) lose themselves in their phones. A doctor plays with his cell phone while letting his patient die. A pretty woman takes selfie (自拍) at the scene of a car accident. A father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone. A series of similar events finally leads to the destruction(毁灭) of the world.

Although the ending sounds overstated(夸大), the harm phubbing can do is real. Your health is the first to face the effect and result of it. “ Bending your head to check your cell phone could be harmful to your neck,” A famous doctor said. “Also, staring at(盯着) cell phones for a long time will damage(损害) your eyesight little by little.”

But that’s not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. Many people pay more attention to their cell phones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange situation.

It can also cost you your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents, and were robbed of their cell phones in broad daylight.

【1】Why does the author give the example of a cartoon in Para. 2?

A.To advertise the cartoon made by students.

B.To tell us the world will finally be destroyed by phubbers.

C.To inform people of the bad effects of phubbing.

D.To warn doctors against using cell phones while treating patients.

【2】Which of the following is NOT a risk(危险）a phubber may have?

A.His social skills could be affected.

B.He will cause the destruction of the world.

C.His neck and eyesight will be gradually harmed.

D.He might get separated from his friends and family.

【3】What may the passage talk about next?

A.Advice on how to use WeChat. B.People addicted to phubbing.

C.Results of phubbing. D.Ways to reduce the risks of phubbing.

22、   For many animals, the sea is a dangerous place. Overfishing and pollution are killing many sea animals. But the number of cephalopods (头足类动物) – sea animals that include octopi (章鱼) and squid (鱿鱼) – has been growing for the past 60 years. 

Zoe Doubleday is a scientist and she did a study of cephalopods. She says cephalopods’ special abilities made their numbers to grow.

① These animals can change their colour and body shape. They grow fast and live for only one or two years. “This allows them to get used to changing environments more quickly than other sea animals,” Doubleday said.

② What’s more, rising sea temperatures might make animals age faster, she says. They might be growing faster and giving birth to more babies.

③ So people can find them in both cold and hot places. Because they can easily get used to their environment, they are known as the “wild grass of the sea”.

④ Will octopi and squid take over the world one day? According to Doubleday, that won’t happen. The growth of cephalopods could slow down if the animals run out of food and start eating each other. Overfishing could also change their numbers.

For now, the cephalopod growth is good news for other sea animals. “The growing number of cephalopods could be good for sea animals and birds that eat cephalopods,” Doubleday said.

【1】According to the first paragraph, what is happening to sea animals?

A.They are getting used to dirty water.

B.They are running out of food.

C.They are being killed by overfishing and pollution.

D.They are being caught and kept in zoos.

【2】What helped the number of cephalopods to grow?

A.Their ability to change their colour and body shape.

B.Their ability to grow more slowly than other animals.

C.Their ability to change their body temperature.

D.Their ability to eat other sea animals.

【3】“Cephalopods live in all of the world’s seas.” The sentence can be put in ________.

A.① B.② C.③ D.④

【4】According to the article, the cephalopod growth now ________ .

A.makes the sea full of wild grass B.makes the sea full of cephalopods

C.harms some sea animals D.is good for some sea animals

23、Dear Tony,

I’ve been busy last few weeks, even though all the tests are over and we hardly have any homework. I’m busy preparing for an English spelling competition and volunteering in a museum. But I still keep reading.

I have just finished a funny book series called I Funny, I Even Funnier and I Totally Funniest. They talk about a kid, Jamie Grimm, who got in a car accident and had to move in a wheel. Because his parents died in the accident, Jamie had to live with his aunt and uncle. His aunt didn’t treat him well, and his cousin always made fun of him. Luckily, his uncle Frankie often helped him and was nice to him. One day, Jamie was telling jokes in his uncle’s restaurant. Then, his uncle told him to take part in the joke contest. The three books show his journey in the joke contest from city, state and country.

There are some really funny jokes in the books. I often laughed out loudly and told my mom one of the jokes. It’s too late today. I will share some with you next time.

24、   The most common disease in the world is the cold. It often starts with a sore throat(咽部疼痛). You sneeze and your nose runs. You usually have a headache, too. Often you have a cough later. It’s not a serious disease, but you can feel quite bad.

There isn’t good medicine for a cold, but you can take some medicine to make you feel better. It is good to rest, and to drink a lot of water, too. A doctor once told me, “With the right medicine, a cold will last for seven days. With no medicine, it will go on for a whole week!”

Where does our medicine come from? A long time ago, people found that some plants made them feel better. They ate leaves, roots, fruits or seeds of plants. We know the juice of lemons makes a sore throat feel better. In modern times, scientists have studied many plants, and found out what chemicals are in them.

Many kinds of our medicines today are made from those chemicals. There are some diseases that we can’t treat yet. But because of modern medicine, people now live longer than their grandparents.
