1、阅读下面的短文, 将划线部分译成英文或中文。

Yuan Longping, Father of Hybrid Rice（杂交水稻）

On May 22, 2021, Yuan Longping passed away in Changsha at the age of 91. 1. 袁隆平把一生花在了稻谷研究上。

In 1973, he developed the first hybrid rice. Since then, he has helped China work a great wonder — 2. feeding one fifth of the world’s people with less than 9% of the world’s land.

Yuan had a much bigger dream — to save the world from hunger. 3. Yuan’s team helped people in many countries around the world to grow rice. He got the World Food Prize in 2004. Now one fifth of rice around the world comes from his study.

Even in his later years, Yuan did not stop studying. In 2017, working with an agricultural（农业的）school, he helped develop indica rice（籼稻）for some special places in the world. For what he did, in 2020, Yuan was given the “Medal of the Republic（共和国勋章）”, the highest honor in China.

4. We believe that if we all try our best, Yuan’s dream will come true and our world will be free of hunger one day. 5. 袁隆平是世界上最伟大的科学家之一。He is so great that we won’t forget him forever. As middle school students, we should always learn from him and try our best to make our greatest contributions（贡献）to our country.

22、   People often think of the North Pole (北极) and the South Pole as similar frozen (冰冻的) wastelands. They are both places with very cold temperatures and few people live there. However, the North and South Poles are not much alike as people may imagine.

The North Pole has no land, only thick ice. Temperatures seldom go above 32°F, at which water turns into ice. Most of the time, it stays below zero. In winter temperatures are usually as low as -30°F.

Although conditions were very poor, people tried for many centuries to reach the North Pole. About 100 years ago, two men, Robert Peary and Mathew Henson, were able to get to this environment full of troubles and difficulties. They reached the North Pole on March 8th, 1909. It was really a hard trip for them. There are few things more dangerous than crossing the Arctic (北极圈) on foot. People who stayed there may face many problems: very cold temperatures, sudden storms, and even hunger. Most of the area is uninhabited. Few people can live in such a difficult place.

People might think that with such low temperatures for most of the year, the ice would be thick and hard. However, this is not true in the Arctic. The movement of the ocean water under the ice may often cause many different changes on the surface. Sometimes the ice breaks into two opening lanes of water (水道) called “leads”. Anyone who falls into a lead can be frozen to death in a few minutes.

【1】This passage is probably from ___________.

A.a book review B.a computer magazine C.a school report D.a science book

【2】According to the passage, what happened about 100 years ago?

A.Two men succeeded（成功）in getting to the North Pole.

B.Temperatures in the North Pole went above 32°F.

C.The environment in the North Pole suddenly became worse.

D.The North Pole changed into thick ice because of the temperatures.

【3】What does the underlined word “uninhabited” probably mean in Chinese?

A.气候恶劣的 B.充满危险的 C.困难重重的 D.无人居住的

【4】What does this passage mainly talk about?

A.The thick ice in the North Pole.

B.A difficult trip to the North Pole.

C.The real situation in the North Pole.

D.The differences between the North Pole and the South Pole.

23、When I was little, my mother sold flowers at a market. She couldn’t leave me at home on my own, so I had to go along with her. As I grew older, I began to give my mom a hand.

When I was 14, my grandma gave me a book for Christmas. It was all about making candles. I loved it so much that I spent all my free time making candles of all shapes (形状) and sizes.

24、阅读理解填词

There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge (判断) things too quickly. So he s【1】 them to go and watch a pear tree that was far away. The first son went in winter, the second in spring, the third in summer, and the fourth son in autumn.

When they had all come back, he called them together to d【2】  what they had seen. The

first son said that the tree was ugly and there was nothing in it. The second son said no—green' buds (花蕾) c【3】 the tree and it was full of promise .The third son had different ideas .he said it was f【4】 with flowers that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful. The last son d【5】 with all of them, he said it was ripe(成熟) and there there was a lot of f【6】, life and harvest.

The man then told his sons that they were all right, but they had each seen one s【7】of the

thing. He told that they cannot judge a tree, or a person by only one season and they can only be

judged at the e【8】, when all the seasons are up.

If you give up when it's winter, you will miss the h【9】 of your spring, the beauty of your summer and the harvest of your autumn. Don't let the sadness of one season b【10】 the happiness of the rest. Judge after you know enough about that !
