Our dog Abbey died last month. My 4-year-old daughter Lucy missed her a lot and asked if we could write a letter to God to make sure he could look after Abbey well. 【1】  . She dictated (口述) these words:

Dear God,

Will you please take care of my dog?  【2】 . I miss her very much. I am happy that you let me have her as my dog even though she got sick. I hope you will play with her. 【3】 . I am sending a picture of her so when you see her you will know that she is my dog. I really miss her.

Love, Lucy

We put the letter in an envelope with a picture of Abbey and Lucy and addressed it to God Heaven. Yesterday, we received a package addressed, “To Lucy” with this note:

Dear Lucy,

Abbey has arrived in heaven.

【4】 . Her spirit is here with me just like it stays in your heart. Abbey loved being your dog. You don’t need to worry about her. She’s being looked after very well here. Thank you for the beautiful letter.  【5】  . You have a wonderful mother. I send my blessings every day and remember that I love you very much. By the way, I’m easy to find.

24、   If you need to call your parents but your phone is not with you, can you remember their numbers? To remember 11 numbers is not difficult. However, because of the smart phone, many of us are losing this ability. What's more, smart phones weaken our skills at giving directions, as well as killing face-to-face communications. Even when friends are having a meal together, it's common for most to check their phones.

According to a report by Kleiner Perkins Caufield Byers, an American company, Chinese people spend about 170 minutes on their smart phones daily.

Many students are addicted to using smart phones. It does no good to their study. Research by Japan's Education Ministry showed children who spend more than four hours a day on their phones perform much worse in school tests than those who play with their phones for 30 minutes.

It's true that the smart phone has made our lives easier. But many also think they spend too much time on it, and this is bad for their study or work. People are trying to change that.

A new app called Forest was introduced this month. It lets users plant a seed that grows into a tree over the next 30 minutes. During the half hour, users cannot use their phones or the tree will die.

A restaurant in Los Angeles, US, gives people a 5% discount if they don't check their phones during a meal. Owner Mark Gold said he hopes it gives people a way to enjoy their meal and actually talk with friends and family in person.

【1】What does the word "addicted" probably mean in Chinese?

A.沉迷 B.喜爱 C.习惯 D.擅长

【2】The app "Forest" is used to

A.encourage people to plant more trees B.get people to change their smart phone

C.help people better control smart phone using D.offer people a new game to enjoy themselves.

【3】By giving people a 5% discount, Owner Mark Gold wants his customers to

A.enjoy a cheaper meal B.say no to smart phones

C.check phones after the meal D.improve face to-face communication

【4】What's the best title of the passage?

A.Smart or harmful? B.Stop using smart phones?

C.Why not try smart phones? D.How to make your phones smart?

25、   Many kids all over the world are reading Harry Potter books in school. But some parents think their children shouldn't be able to find those and other books in school libraries. Should school libraries keep books that some parents don't approve of？Should they take those books off the bookcases?

All over the USA, schools are wrestling with those questions. Read these arguments. Then decide for yourself.

Yes! Some Books Should Be Banned from School Libraries!

Many parents believe that there should be certain limits（限定）. Books that include violence(暴力）or bad words shouldn't be in schools. Some parents think Harry Potter books have no place in school libraries because they talk about wizards and magic.

Most parents know what's good for kids. They have a right to decide which books should or should not be in school libraries.

Books should be checked before they are put in schools. Is this a good book for kids to read?

Is it full of violence? Does it have bad words or ideas kids shouldn't learn about? If a book is not good for all kids, it should not be in a school library.

No! Books Should Not Be Banned from School Libraries!

Why should a few parents stop all kids from reading stories like Harry Potter?

"Parents should decide what their own kids read," said Natalie Nicole, of Denver, Colorado.

Many experts say that it's the parents' job, not the school's job, to check out what their kids are reading. If they don't like a book, they should not let their kids read it.

Many schools let kids borrow certain books if they have a signed（签名的）paper from their parents. That works fine. A parent doesn't sign the paper if he or she doesn't want the child to read the book. Other kids can read the book if they are allowed.

Some books are not OK for all kids to read. But if more adults were careful about what their own kids read, they wouldn't have to ban books from the library.

【1】The underlined word "approve of " has the closest meaning to "______________".

A.borrow B.accept C.read D.write

【2】Some parents don't think Harry Potter books should be in school libraries because

A.they talk about wizards and magic B.this kind of books will bring bad luck

C.kids don't have a signed paper for the books D.they have nothing to do with children's studies

【3】The underlined word "That" refers to

A.Reading books with kids B.Allowing kids to read widely

C.Signing before borrowing books D.Letting kids choose books themselves

【4】Which of the following would Natalie Nicole most probably agree?

A.Schools should provide a reading list for the students.

B.All the kids should be allowed to read Harry Potter books.

C.Libraries should ban the books some parents don't support.

D.Kids' choices of books should be made by their own parents.

26、   Here are three students talking about the future in 2040.

A holiday trip to the moon will not be a dream. We can also travel to other planets and talk with the spacemen. We’ll have new homes on other planets. By then, I will be about forty years old. Maybe we will have an exciting talk in my new home on another planet!

27、根据短文内容，判断正误（正确“T”，错误“F”），并将答案涂到答题卡的相应位置上。

“Which is the right bin for my rubbish?” This may be the most asked question in Shanghai since it started a new garbage-sorting (垃圾分类) program on July 1, 2019 When learning about the four kinds of rubbish-wet, dry, recyclable (可回收的) and harmful-many people maybe don' know how to properly sort it.

To help people solve this problem, China's technology companies are giving a hand. For example, if you want to know which bin your wet wipes (湿巾) should go in, you can just open a mini app in WeChat or Alipay and look for “wet wipes”. The app will give you the answer right away. Soon, you might do it in an easier way. Maybe you can just take a photo of the rubbish and then be told where it should go.

This kind of technology is called image recognition (图像识别). It uses artificial intelligence (AI, 人工智能). Many companies around the world are making garbage-sorting robots that use this technology. For example, AMP Robotics in the US has made a robot that can sort food and drink packages (包装).By “seeing” pictures on the packages, the robot will pick up the rubbish and put it in the right place.

The future of garbage-sorting looks good. But it's not the best way. The best thing we can do is to make less rubbish in the first place.

【1】The people in Shanghai must put the rubbish into the right bin since July 1, 2019.

【2】People know how to sort the five kinds of rubbish.

【3】WeChat can help people sort the rubbish correctly.

【4】According to paragraph 3, garbage-sorting robots can only “seeing”pictures on the packages.

【5】Making less rubbish is the best thing we can do in the first place.

28、

There was once a jeweler, famous for many virtues(美德). One day, some Arabs came to him for some diamonds to decorate an important thing for a yearly celebration.

The Arabs told him what they wanted, and offered him a f【1】 price for the diamonds. He replied that he could not let them see the jewels at that moment, and required them to call again.

As they wanted the diamonds without any delay, and thought that the p【2】 of the jeweler was only to increase the price of the diamonds, the Arabs offered him twice, then three times as much as they were worth. But he still refused, and they were quite d【3】 and went away.

Some hours later, he went to the Arabs and l【4】 before them the diamonds, for which they again offered him the last price they had named, but he said, “ I will only accept the first price you offered to me this morning.”

“Why, then, did you disagree with us at once?” asked they in surprise.

“When you came,” replied he, “my father had the key to the s【5】, in which the diamonds were locked, and as he was asleep, I would have to w【6】 him to gain them.”

“At his age, a short hour of sleep u【7】does him good; and no business is more important than my father’s single comfort.”

The Arabs were affected by his words. They spread their hand upon the jeweler’s head and showed their satisfying smiles.

29、I believe listening is a powerful medicine.

It was Sunday. I had the last ______ to see and I got into her room. She was an old woman, sitting on the bed, trying to ______ her socks. I said something like this: “How are you feeling? The nurse says your son is visiting you today. I believe you are ______ seeing him.”

She stopped me in a serious voice, “Sit down, doctor. This is my story, not yours.”

I was surprised and ______ . I sat down and helped her with the socks. She began to tell me that her only son lived not far from her, ______ she had not seen him for five years. She believed her health problems were because of missing her son. After hearing her story and helping her put on her socks, I asked if there was ______ I could do for her. She ______ her head and smiled. All she wanted me to do was to ______.

Each story is different. Some are clear; _____ are not, yet all those things do not really matter. What matters to the storyteller is that the story is heard.

Listening to someone’s story costs nothing but it is the key to healing（康复）. I often think of ______ the woman taught me, and I remind it myself of the importance stopping, sitting down and truly listening. I believe in the power of listening.
