21、Cut, copy and paste(黏贴) . These three commands(命令) are often used in computers and phones, and they started with one man: Larry Tesler.

Tesler became a student at Standford University in 1961, when he was just 16 years old. He started working for Xerox, a company best known for its photocopies(复印机), in 1973. He then moved to Apple in 1980. At that time, computers were not “user-friendly”. Every program worked differently. Tesler’s work, which included developing cut, copy and paste, made computers easier to use for common people.

Cut, copy and paste were based on(基于) the old way of editing(编辑). People would actually cut printed paper with scissors and glue pieces of text in other places on the page. The commands were first built into Apple’s Lisa computer in 1983 and are now used in all the computers.

Tesler left Apple in 1997 and later worked for Amazon, Yahoo and other companies that deal with technology. He died in 2020 at the age of 74, but his work lives on in the computers we use every day.

【1】What were computers in the 1980s like?

A．They were the same as computers today.

B．They only had cut, copy and paste commands.

C．They were difficult to use for common people.

D．They ran programs that worked in the same way.

【2】How did Tesler get the idea of creating the three commands?

A．By running a special program.

B．By listening to the users’ needs.

C．By learning from the old way of editing.

D．By using the new technologies of Apple.

【3】Which word can be used to describe Tesler’s work?.

A．Great.

B．Strange.

C．Impossible.

D．Interesting

【4】What is the main purpose of the passage?

A．To introduce the history of computers.

B．To encourage us to use computers wisely.

C．To tell us what computers were like in the past.

D．To introduce a man who changed computers greatly.

22、Long long ago, there was a spider(蜘蛛). She lived in a field. She liked the field and planned to stay there for the rest of her life.

One day, the spider caught a bug(小虫子). The bug said, “If you let me go, I will tell you something important. It can save your life.” The spider stopped and listened carefully.

“You’d better get out of the field.” the bug said. “The harvest is coming!”

The spider smiled and said, “What is the harvest you are talking about? You are just telling me a story.”But the bug said, “Oh, no, it is true. The owner of this field is coming to harvest. You might be killed by machines if you stay here.”

The spider said, “I don’t believe you. I have lived here for a long time, and the owner has never come here.” And then the spider ate the bug for lunch.

The next day was a beautiful sunny day. As the spider was going to have a rest, she saw some thick clouds moving toward her. She could hear the sound of a big machine, and she said to herself, “What would that be? Is the bug right?” She wanted to run away, but it was too late.

23、Wild animals are our friends, but the number of them is getting smaller and smaller. We should try to protect them. The four animals below are now in danger.

Tibetan Antelopes

Tibetan antelopes (藏羚羊) are medium-sized animals. They mainly feed on grass. They are usually found in groups of about 20. They are killed for their wool, which is warm, soft and fine and can be made into expensive clothes. Although people can get the wool without killing the animals, people simply kill them before taking the wool. The number of them is dropping year by year. There are less than 75,000 Tibetan antelopes left in the world, down from a million 50 years ago.

Golden Monkeys

Golden monkeys are mainly found in Sichuan, Gansu, Shanxi provinces and Shengnongjia mountainous area of Hubei Province. Golden monkeys have golden-orange fur. They move around in the daytime, usually in groups of as many as 100 to 200 heads, or 20 to 30 heads. They feed on fruits and young leaves of bamboos. But people are destroying the environment where they live. Trees and bamboos are disappearing, so golden monkeys have less and less to eat.

Elephants

Elephants are very big and strong. They are bigger than any other animals on land. They are grey and have long trunks and tusks. They have poor eyesight, but very good hearing and smell. They can lift heavy things and break down branches with their trunks. Elephants are very friendly towards each other and towards their neighbours. Normally, they live in a group for many years. Young male elephants do not leave the group until they are about 12 years old. Now, there are very few elephants in the world. The number of them is becoming smaller and smaller because their living areas are used for farming. Also, people hunt them for their tusks.

Wolves

Wolves are not very big. They have grey fur. Wolves have very good eyesight, hearing and smell. Wolves’ food is various. They eat animals, insects and snails. They are friendly to each other and never attack people. They do not kill for fun. Wolves are in danger, too. They are losing their living areas because people cut down forests. Soon they will have no home or food.

【1】Tibetan antelopes usually live in groups of about _______.

A. 20 B. 30   C. 100 D. 200

【2】Which of the following animals are the biggest on land?
