21、A few years ago, my wife and I had a chance to live in New York for a year. I’ve always loved jogging, so I was really happy when I found the apartment we lived in was next to the Central Park. I could go for a run before I went to work every morning.
Because a lot of people had told me to be careful of robbers (抢劫者) in the park, I didn’t usually take anything with me. How could they rob me if I didn’t have anything? But one morning my wife asked me to buy some bread on the way home, so I put a $10 bill in my back pocket.
While I was running through the park, another jogger ran into me. He apologized and continued running. I thought it was kind of strange, so I checked my pocket and found that the money was missing. I immediately started to run after the jogger. I finally caught up and took him by the arm. I started shouting and demanding that he should give me the $10 bill. This seemed to frighten him, and he quickly put his hand in his pocket and gave me the money. Then he ran away as fast as he could.
I bought the bread and went home. As soon as I got home, I began to tell my wife my story. “You won't believe what happened to me,” I started. She immediately stopped me, “1 know. You left the money for the bread on the kitchen table.”
【1】What can we learn about the park in the story?
A.It was not a safe place to go to.
B.It was far from the writer’s flat.
C.It was not fit for morning jogging.
D.It served delicious and cheap bread.
【2】Why did the jogger give the money to the author?
A.Because he stole the author’s money.
B.Because he failed in the running race.
C.Because he borrowed money from the author.
D.Because he thought the author was a robber.
【3】Which word can best describe the author?
A.Careless (粗心的).
B.Generous (慷慨的).
C.Careful.
D.Brave.
【4】What's the main idea of the text?
A.Two female (女性的) joggers in New York.
B.A funny story in the Central Park.
C.Two robbers in the Central Park.
D.A couple’s new life in New York
22、I grew up with a group of pets. As a mother, I was determined to provide my daughter with the same joyful experiences. Indeed, by the time my daughter was in elementary school, our house was known as "the neighborhood zoo". Now that she is a teenager, we've reduced the number of animals in our home, but we still live with two dogs. I can't imagine life without them.
Regardless, I have become increasingly uncomfortable with the word "pet". When I came upon the conclusion by the University of Tennessee zoologist Gordon Burghardt that the best we can do for pets is a life of "controlled deprivation (剥夺)", I wished I had never bought Lizzy, our leopard gecko(豹纹守宫). I felt a pit in my stomach when I learned that Lizzy' s constant clawing at the glass wall of her tank was most likely a signal of stress. It is perhaps not surprising that she died after only two years, despite our efforts to give proper care.
The problems with the various small creatures we put into cages and tanks are relatively clear-cut. More challenging moral questions, in my view, arise in relation to our closest furry friends: dogs and cats. Unlike animals that must spend their entire life in a cage or that must struggle to adapt to a human environment, most cats and dogs have it pretty good. Yet it is likely that our dogs and cats may be suffering in ways we don't readily see, because even the most well-meaning owner doesn't always provide what an animal needs.
It may be hard to recognize the harmful aspects of pet keeping when all we hear is how beloved pets are and how happy they are to be in our company. Advertisements showing golden-haired children playing with golden-haired puppies and YouTube videos of cats doing funny things make pet keeping look ever so precious.
Yet if we really care about animals, we ought to know animals are not toys — they are living, breathing, feeling creatures.
【1】What does the underlined part "the neighborhood zoo" in Paragraph 1
imply?
A. The author is a pet lover.
B. The author is a regular zoo-goer.
C. The author' s daughter is a zoo keeper.
D. The author' s neighborhood is rich in animals.
【2】How did the author feel about Lizzy?
A. Worried. B. Curious.
C. Guilty. D. Annoyed.
【3】What is the main problem with pet dogs and cats?
A. They can' t adapt to human life.
B. Their needs are easier to ignore.
C. They suffer a lot from ill-treatment.
D. Their owners fail to accompany them.
【4】Which of the following statements is True?
A. My daughter grew up with a group of pets until adulthood.
B. According to Gordon Burghardt, we should try our best to give pets a life of "controlled deprivation (剥夺)".
C. Most cats and dogs spend their entire life in a cage just like other animals.
D. What the media did makes it hard for us to recognize the harmful aspects of pet keeping.
23、 Is there a strange something high up in the world’s tallest mountains? If so, is it a big bear? Is it a monkey? Or is it a kind of man? No one knows. This mystery has puzzled the world for years.
In 1887, a mountain climber found large footsteps in the snow. They looked like the footsteps of a very large man. But men don’t walk without shoes in the snow!
In 1906, another climber saw more footsteps. He saw a very large animal standing on two legs. As he watched, it ran away very quickly. Fifteen years later, a newspaper had new stories about the “something”. A mountain climber said he had seen the “snowman” walk slowly in the snow. He said it looked like a very large man.
From then on, more and more people had stories to tell. But not until 1951 did a mountain climber bring back the pictures of large footsteps. The pictures showed clearly that the snowman walked on two legs. So it was not a bear or a monkey. Could it be an apeman (猿人)? And the mystery keeps growing. Some day, we may find out just what it is that makes the largest footsteps.
【1】The passage is about ________.
A.some mountain climbers

【2】Why were people interested in footsteps?

【3】Why did the mystery grow when a mountain climber brought back pictures of large footsteps?
A.They were the footsteps of an apeman.
B.They were the footsteps of a snowman.
C.The pictures showed clearly how the snowman walked.
D.People still don’t know who made the footsteps.
【4】Which is the best title?
A.Snow
B.The large footsteps

D.Monkey
24、 Deserts are found where there is little rainfall or where rain for a whole year falls in only a few weeks' time. Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive if the rain is spread throughout the year, If it falls, within one or two months and the rest of the year is dry, those plants may die and a desert may form.
Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear them down. Sand dunes are formed as winds move the sand across the desert. Bit by bit, the dunes grow over the years, always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most of them are only a few feet tall, but they can grow to be several hundred feet high.
There is, however, much more to a desert than sand. In the deserts of the southwestern United States, cliffs and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay beneath a sea more than millions of years ago. Over the centuries, the water dried up. Wind, sand, rain, heat and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks. The faces of the desert mountains are always changing—very, very slowly—as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.
Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and insects that: have adapted to life in the desert. During the heat of the day, a visitor may see very few signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the evening, the desert comes to life. As the sun begins to rise again in the sky, the desert once again becomes quiet and lonely.
【1】Many plants may survive in deserts when___________.
A.the rain is spread out in a year B.the rain falls only in a few weeks
C.there is little rain in a year D.it is dry all the year round
【2】Sand dunes are formed when___________.
A.sand piles up gradually B.there is plenty of rain in a year
C.the sea has dried up over the years D.pieces of rock get smaller
【3】The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably means that in a desert there is____________.
A.too much sand B.more sand than before
C.nothing except sand D.something else besides sand
25、When I entered Berkeley, I hoped to earn a scholarship. Having been a Straight-A student, I believed I could ______ tough subjects and really learn something. One such course was World Literature given by Professor Jayne. I was extremely interested in the ideas he ______ in class.
When I took the first exam, I was ______ to find a 77, C-plus, on my test paper, ______English was my best subject. I went to Professor Jayne, who listened to my ______ but remained unmoved.
I decided to try harder, although I didn’t know what that ______ because school had always been easy for me. I read the books more carefully, but got another 77. Again, I reasoned with Professor Jayne. Again, he listened ______ but wouldn’t change his mind.
One more test before the final exam. One more ______ to improve my grade. So I redoubled my efforts and, for the first time, ______ the meaning of the word “thorough (深入细致的)”. But my ______ did no good and everything went as before.
The last hurdle was the final. No matter what grade I got, it wouldn’t cancel C-pluses. I might as well kiss the ______ goodbye.
I stopped working hard. I felt I knew the course material as well as I ever would. The night before the final, I even ______ myself to a movie. The next day I decided for once I’d have fun with a test.
A week later, I was surprised to find I got an A. I hurried into Professor Jayne’s office. He ______ to be expecting me. “If I gave you the A-pluses you expected, you wouldn’t continue to work as hard.”
I stared at him,______ that his analysis and strategy were correct. I had worked my head off, as I had never done before.
I was speechless when my course grade arrived: A-plus. It was the only A-plus given. The next year I ______ my scholarship. I’ve always remembered Professor Jayne’s lesson: you alone must set your own standard of excellence.
