24、   A successful experiment (实验) in the deserts of Dubai (迪拜) may deal with hunger around the world. A team of Chinese scientists has tried to develop a kind of rice that grows in salt water. Not only that, it produces far more rice than you can imagine.

Back in January, 2018, the researchers were invited to plant some of the saltwater rice in different areas of the desert. Usual water is too expensive to waste on rice in those desert areas. After five months of growth, they produce up to 7.8 tons of rice a hectare (公顷). At the same time, the world average (平均数) stands at 3.3 tons a hectare.

The researchers from China are continuing the experiment by setting up a 100-hectare salt-water rice farm in 2019. It will show the costs of production and different farming skills. They hope to plant saltwater rice on more farms in 2020.

Their dream is to cover up to 10% of the country with the saltwater rice fields—and if the skills are successful in Dubai’s bad farming weather, then the farms could “feed the whole Arab world and they help to ensure (确保) food security (安全)”.

Yuan Longping is the “father of hybrid rice” and leader of the research group. He says that there are over l million square kilometers of land in China that is not used because there is too much salt in the soil. By planting saltwater rice on just one-tenth of this land, we hope it will feed over 200 million more people.

【1】What kind of water do the researchers use to grow rice?

A.Usual water. B.Salt water. C.Hot water. D.Cold water.

【2】What can we learn from Paragraph 3?

A.The researchers from China won’t plant saltwater rice on farms in 2020.

B.The experiment of setting up saltwater rice farm will cost much money.

C.Chinese researchers hope to plant saltwater rice on more farms by doing experiments.

D.The experiment won’t show any different farming skills.

【3】What does the underlined word “they” refer to?

A.The farms. B.The skills. C.The scientists. D.The Arab world.

【4】What does Yuan Longping think of saltwater rice?

A.It’s terrible. B.It’s impossible. C.It’s unnecessary. D.It’s hopeful.

25、“Welcome to our new ‘classroom’!” said Chen Dong, one of the three astronauts of the Shenzhou XIV mission.

They were giving a science class 400 kilometers above Earth on Oct 12. It was the third space class from the Tiangong space station, but the first one from the Wentian lab module (实验舱) since its launch in July. The former two classes were held in the Tianhe core module (核心舱).

What does the new “classroom” look like? Chen, together with Liu Yang and Cai Xuzhe, showed us around. “The beds in the Tianhe module are placed horizontally (横着), while our beds are kept upright,” said Liu. That means astronauts in the Wentian lab module need to sleep standing up! But as Liu explained, people don’t feel any difference because there’s no gravity (重力)   in space. Astronauts can even sleep on the ceiling (天花板) or upside down!

The astronauts also showed their “space farm”, where lettuce, wheat (小麦), thale cress (拟南芥) and rice are grown. “Take a picture!” “Send the picture!” Through a voice-controlled camera, Chen already sent a picture of the thale cress to scientists on Earth. Then he used scissors to cut a sample (样本). “I’ll put it into a fridge at -80℃ and later give it to scientists on Earth,” said Chen. Scientists will study how the environment of space affects the growth of plants.

“Can you see the water drops coming from the leaves? This is called ‘guttation’ (植物吐水现象),” said Liu, holding the well-grown rice. In space, the water drops are much bigger than those on Earth. So people can clearly see the guttation.

“We hope in the near future, we can harvest (收获) the food grown on our own,” said Chen. “Maybe one day, we can harvest food on the other planets like moon or even Mars!”

【1】Where was the third space class held?

A．On Mars.

B．In the Wentian lab module.

C．On Earth.

D．In the Tianhe core module.

【2】How did Astronaut Liu sleep in the module?

A．

B．

C．

D．

【3】What can we infer from the passage?

A．“Guttation” can be clearly seen from leaves of rice in space.

B．It’s easy to grow lettuce, wheat, and rice in Shenzhou XIV.

C．People may try to grow food on other planets in the future.

D．Astronaut Chen sent pictures of thale cress to children on Earth.

【4】Which may be the best title for the passage?

A．The Future of Space Science

B．The Life of Three Astronauts

C．A Journey into the Space

D．A Space Class in Shenzhou XIV

26、   The United States has always been a country of many cultures. Before Europeans came to North America, many groups of Native Americans lived here. Different Native American groups had different cultures. The first Europeans in the United States were from England and Holland, but immigrants（移民） came from all European countries. Many people also immigrated from Asia and Africa. Sadly, many Africans were brought to the United States to serve the Americans. The life there was hard for them. Many immigrants come from Latin America too. Today, the United States has people from more cultures than ever.

In the 19th century, people thought of the United States as a “melting pot”. People thought that all immigrants should forget their native cultures and languages and become English-speaking Americans. They felt that people should assimilate cultures. However, not everyone wanted to assimilate completely. Many people tried to keep parts of their cultures, such as foods, customs, and languages. However, their children often forgot their parents’ or grandparents’ language. But most Americans, even those whose families have been here for a long time, can tell the countries their relatives came from. And of course, new immigrants take great pride in their cultures and languages.

For all of these reasons, melting pot is no longer a good way to describe the United States. Instead, people now call the United States a “salad bowl”. They say salad bowl because in a salad, you can still see all of the individual parts （lettuce, tomato, and so on）, but all the different parts are mixed together and begin to take on the taste of one another.

【1】The first paragraph mainly talks about_____________ .

A.how many immigrants the United States has

B.where the immigrants live in the United States

C.what culture and language the immigrants keep

D.why the United States is a country of many cultures

【2】What can we learn from the passage?

A.Before Europeans came to North America, nobody lived there.

B.People spoke of the United States as a “melting pot” in the 19th century.

C.All the Africans were brought to the United States to serve the Americans.

D.The immigrants in the United States are only from England, Holland and Africa.

【3】The underlined word “assimilate” in the second paragraph means “   ”.

A.make something similar B.make something special

C.make something different D.make something interesting

【4】Why do people call the United States a “salad bowl” now?

A.Because Americans can make all the cultures into one culture.

B.Because Americans all want to eat salad to be healthy very much.

C.Because Americans want their country to be as “green” as “salad”.

D.Because Americans can make different cultures go together in one country.

Dear Mom,

We haven’t seen each other for a long time since the outbreak of COVID-19. I miss you very much. At first, when you got off work, I was afraid to think what if you were infected（感染）and I lost you. But you told me, “Your mom is a nurse and a soldier in white! Now, I understand you when 【1】（越来越多的）patients recover（恢复）and their families get together again. How great you are! I 【2】（以……为傲）you, Mom! Of course, there are many other uncles and aunts like you working in the front line to 【3】（与……作斗争）COVID-19. They leave life and death behind. They don’t 【4】（关心）gains and losses（得失）.
