21、I drove a taxi for extra money east of Toronto thirty years ago. Each time a taxi drove up to the front of the Greenwood Racetrack, a group of local kids would run along the sidewalk angling for position by the passenger door. One lucky kid, or rather, the most aggressive one, would open the passenger door and say “Good luck, Mister!” The man getting out of the cab would vaguely say thanks and throw the kid a quarter. It was a routine everybody knew.

Throughout the summer, one kid caught my eye. He was bigger than most of all the other kids but pushed away by even the smallest. He never made it but never gave up. One day, his chance arrived. As I was pulling up to the sidewalk, all the kids were pushing for a cab just ahead of mine. The boy saw me and walked toward my taxi. As I positioned the passenger door right beside him, he never paused and opened the passenger door, warmly saying, “Good luck, Mister!”

But the man neither said thanks nor flipped him a quarter. He pushed him aside so hard that the boy fell on the sidewalk. I knew it hurt him badly. I got out in less than 10 seconds, but the man was gone in the crowd. So I looked for the kid. I decided to give him $20 for the effort. By the time I spotted him he was far up ahead, walking away in the opposite direction through the crowd and his head hanging down. When I got the cab turned around I lost sight of him. I never saw him again. I’d like to find him one day and tell him that if only he had stuck around a little longer I would have given him a whole $20.

I learned from this kid that when things seem so hopeless that you are ready to give up, it’s the time when things are most likely to turn around for you.

【1】What can we learn from the first paragraph?

A. The passenger was ready to give a tip to the kid.

B. The author was a professional taxi driver at that time.

D. The driver would work with and benefit from those children.

【2】Why did the kid never succeed in opening the passenger door?

A. He was modest.   B. He was the shortest.

C. He made no effort.   D. He pushed his way.

【3】Why did the author get out of his taxi?

B. To encourage the disappointed kid.

C. To give the kid some money.

D. To intend to demand the tip for the kid.

22、Does eating have anything to do with exercise in our daily life? Some experts suggested that we should wait before exercise after eating. And the food you eat will decide how long you will wait before exercise.

Though not everyone who exercises after a meal experiences problems, eating a meal too close to the time you exercise could lead to discomfort. It’s because most food s take hours to digest and some people feel uncomfortable in the process, which could get in the way of meaningful exercise. “For some, eating right before exercise could cause an upset stomach.” adds Allen, a professor at Missouri State University.

According to recent researches, waiting to exercise after eating may better the quality of your exercise. It can improve one’s physical condition and better the exercise. The question then for many people comes down to how long they should wait between eating and exercising — a question to which there is no clear answer.

A good rule is for the time to correlate with the size of the meal one eats. “If you have a big meal such as a toast and potatoes, wait three to four hours to exercise. For a smaller meal such as a sandwich or a protein bar, wait about two hours. For something light like a piece of fruit or orange juice, thirty to sixty minutes is fine.” she advises.

But there is no hard and fast rule, and the time recommended can vary. “The time you wait depends on you, so experiment and see how long works best for your body.” says Allen, “If you can stand it, feel free to eat a healthy snack before you exercise. What I strongly recommend is to pay attention to your body’s needs and do what is best for you.”

【1】What may happen if you exercise right after eating?

A．You may feel uncomfortable.

B．It may lead to a positive result.

C．You may need hours to recover.

D．It may provide meaningful exercise.

【2】How long should one wait to exercise after eating a sandwich?

A．About 3 hours.

B．About 2 hours.

C．About 30 minutes.

D．About 60 minutes.

【3】What does Allen suggest people do in the last paragraph?

A．Find hard and fast rules.

B．Change the exercise time.

C．Enjoy the healthy snacks.

D．Respect the body’s needs.

【4】Where can the text be found?

A．In a novel.

B．In a history book.

C．In a travel brochure.

D．In a fitness magazine.

23、From our smartphones to our latest weaponry, the technology that underpins（支撑） modern life would be impossible without rare earth metals．  The importance of rare earths has only grown as emerging markets increase their demand for technologies made with it, as does the renewable energy industry．

The 17 metallic elements are common in the earth-s crust, but the technique used to extract and refine them is labor-intensive, environmentally hazardous and increasingly costly．  Thomas Gradael,  a professor of geology and geophysics at the Yale School of Forestry Environmental Studies, explains that the钰criticality" of rare earths was only recently understood after China, which dominates the world-s supply of the minerals, cut exports by 40% in 2010, citing concerns over how polluting the rare earth industry was．

Along with colleagues at Yale, Gradael decided to investigate the metals used in modern technologies to determine if there were viable（可行的） substitutes．“Twenty or thirty years ago electronics were being made with 11 different elements," explains Gradael．  “Today's computers and smartphones use something like 63 different elements．" Their findings showed that there were no "readily apparent" substitutes for a metal that would not compromise on quality or performance．

However increased mining for these scarce resources can have some nasty side effects for the environment． China, which has intensively mined for rare earths with little regulation, allowing it to dominate the global industry since 1990, has acknowledged the incredible environmental harm caused by the process．  “Excessive rare earth mining has resulted in landslides, clogged rivers, environmental pollution emergencies and even major accidents and disasters, causing great damage to people's safety and health and the ecological environment," read a white paper issued by the Chinese cabinet in June last year．

Recycling metal has been advocated by some as a possible way of managing these precious resources-the European Parliament adopted a law curbing dumping of electric waste in 2012． But Gradael says that for rare earths, recycling will have little impact．

【1】Rare earths are growingly important in that

A． they exist in small numbers

B．  they are essential in modern technologies

C． life would be impossible without them

D． new technology markets are emerging

【2】Which one of the following can be used in the blank?

A． It is in China that rare earths are fully understood．

B． Despite the name, rare earth metals are not in fact rare．

C． There is a growing concern over the rare earth industry．

D． Rare earth metals are difficult to collect though important．

【3】Gradael investigated the use of rare earths in modern technologies to ．

A． prove the important role rare earths play

B． learn the number of different elements used

C． determine whether there are substitutes for rare earths

D． research further the quality or performance of rare earths

【4】 Why does the author take China as an example in Para．4?

A． To tell the wide use of rare earth in China．

B． To prove the side effects of rare earth mining．

C． To warn people of the possible damage．

D． To teach other countries a lesson to follow．

【5】The text may probably be followed by the paragraphs about

A． the reasons why recycling works little

B． the ways to manage rare earths

C． the effects brought about by rare earths

D． the attitudes people hold to the law

24、A New Trend of Micro Museums Is Making Science Portable

Science museums are amazing. You can see large dinosaur bones from the huge creatures that disappeared thousands of years ago or take a look at cells under a microscope. 【1】 .

You can learn so much at a science museum if living close enough to one. However, for those who don’t live in a city, getting a chance to visit science museums is not easy. “【2】 , their influence is limited. There just aren’t enough science museums, ” said Charles Philipp. “And due to the high costs, it’s unlikely that we’ll be seeing a bunch of new traditional science museums popping up all over the country anytime soon. ”

Philipp and his partner Amanda Schochet have decided to reinvent science museums by getting them small. They founded MICRO, a nonprofit organization that builds tiny 6-foot-tall science museums, which are portable and replicable ( 可复制的). 【3】. They can get access to it for free in such places as waiting rooms of hospitals, libraries, airports, and even shopping malls.

【4】, they made it with the help of a team of engineers, storytellers and designers. Each of the micro museums has a scientific topic. The first museum is the Smallest Mollusk ( 软 体 动 物 ) Museum showing the world of mollusks, which has won great popularity as the only museum devoted just to mollusks. A second museum is the Perpetual Motion Museum that focuses on physics and engineering and will officially open next year. It asks why things move, and why they stop. 【5】 . Hopefully one will come to a neighborhood near you soon.

A.Science museums are beneficial

B.While the content is vitally important

C.Although it costs nothing to visit museums

D.The plan is to get people of all ages connected with science

E.Even though making the tiny museums a reality was difficult

F.Such new museums allow people to explore fun scientific topics

G.You can also learn to think like an engineer by building a model ship

26、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

Asad was a 13-year-old boy who was very honest and hardworking. Recently, he had entered a new school so he had no friends yet. On Monday morning, he was nearly late for school. The night before, his family attended his cousin’s wedding and reached home late, which was why he couldn’t get up on time as usual.

At school, Asad could not pay attention to anything and wanted the bell to ring so that he could buy something to eat. After a few hours, when the bell rang, Asad quickly opened his schoolbag to find his money, but just then he remembered that he had left for school in a hurry in the morning and forgotten to take money. He looked under his books, hoping to find some money but there was nothing.

Not knowing what to do, he walked out of the classroom and sat on a bench in front of the canteen. He saw a few of his classmates there, among them was Fahad. He was one of the richest kids in his class but he was a very arrogant boy who thought everyone else was a loser. But as Asad was new, he didn’t know much about Fahad.

When he went towards Fahad and asked if he could borrow some money for his lunch, Fahad laughed a lot and said, “I knew you were a loser, maybe a beggar?” Fahad laughed out so loud that other kids also heard and made fun of the situation. He didn’t answer Fahad, and slowly walked back towards an empty bench.

When he reached the bench, he noticed something lying near it. It was a wallet. He picked it up and recognized it as Fahad’s, as he remembered Fahad showing it to his friends and telling that his uncle bought it for him from the UK. There was quite a lot of money inside for a kid.
