22、   The novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP, 新型冠状病毒肺炎) outbreak in China was caused by a new coronavirus that we have never seen before. It was first found in the Huanan Seafood Market in Wuhan, where a variety of wild animals were on sale. People who sold and bought animals illegally were the first to be infected.

Scientists have found that the virus likely came from bats and was then spread to humans from pangolins (穿山甲). According to Live Science, bats can carry and spread more than 60 viruses that can infect humans. They include the world’s deadliest viruses, such as Ebola and SARS. But bats have special immune systems that allow them to live with viruses without getting sick. Other wild animals like snakes and hedgehogs (刺猬) are also hosts of many viruses.

There have been calls for people to stop eating wild animals. However, the danger is not just in eating them, but also in touching them. People can get infected if they come into contact with the body fluids (体液) of wild animals. People who hunt, kill, sell or eat these animals run the risk of becoming infected.

Keeping wild animals as pets or selling parts of their bodies as animal products also create risks for humans. It is highly possible to come into contact with the body fluids of wild animals in this way.

“Trade and consumption of wild animals of all kinds should be banned,” Zeng Guang, chief epidemiologist (流行病学家) at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, told China Daily. “Otherwise people will suffer.”

【1】According to scientists, humans might get infected with COVID-19 from________.

A.Pangolins    B.snakes C.hedgehogs D. bamboo rats

【2】According to the story, what lesson should humans learn?

A.Research more about wild animals. B.Exercise regularly to stay healthy.

C.Stop keeping animals as pets. D.Don’t buy or eat wild animals.

23、   An elderly carpenter (木匠) was ready to retire (退休). He told his boss that he planned to leave the building business and live a more relaxing life with his wife, enjoying his big family. He would miss the pay check each week, but he needed to retire. He believed they could get by (勉强过活) even on a small amount of money.

The boss was sorry to see his good worker leave and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor. The carpenter said yes, but soon afterwards he was found to be absent-minded. He used shoddy materials to build the house. How disappointing it was to end his career in this way!

When the carpenter finished all his work, the boss came to inspect (检查) the new house as usual. But after that, he handed the front-door key to the carpenter, saying. “This is your house, my gift to you.”

What a shock! What a shame! If he had known he was building his own house, he would have done it all so differently. Now he had to live in the worst house he had ever built in his life.

Think of yourself as the carpenter. Think about your house. Each day you hammer a nail, place a board, or put up a wall. Build wisely. It is the only life you ever build. Even if you live it for only one more day, that day deserves (值得) to be lived comfortably.

Life is a do-it-yourself project. Your life today is the result of your attitudes (态度) and choices in the past. Your life tomorrow will be the result of your attitudes and the choices you make today.

【1】According to the article, the carpenter _________.

A.was too old to build a fine house B.had a large family to raise

A.Beautiful. B.Best. C.Bad. D.Good.

【3】The carpenter was ________ when he learned that the house he had built was for himself.

A.excited B.delighted C.worried D.surprised

【4】What is the main idea of the fifth paragraph?

A.We should try our best to do things well. B.We should build a good house to live in.

C.We always like doing something. D.We enjoy building the house.

【5】What does the writer mainly want to tell us in the text?

24、   When we see babies or pets, we can’t help touching them gently to show our love. And they give happy feelings back to us. But a recent study shows that it’s different for plants.

A study in The Plants Journal shows that plants don’t like to be touched. That’s because touching changes their genes (基因), and even worse, it can slow their growth. Professor Jim Whelan in Australia gave an explanation. The lightest touch from a human, an animal, or even plants touching each other in the wild, causes a big gene change in the plant.

In order to test the idea, the scientists did an experiment ( 实验) on plants. They grew a number of plants to the age of four weeks. Then they touched them with a brush every 12 hours over a 36-hour period. They found that as a result of the touch, the mitochondria ( 线粒体) in the plants were partly broken. The mitochondria are the “power-house” of the cells (细胞). The mitochondria produce energy for the cells in both animals and plants. If this “power-house” is broken, the plants will lose lots of energy. The energy is very important for their growth. Whelan further explained, “If the touching is repeated, then the plant growth is slowed by 30 percent.”

Although the touching does have a strong influence (影响) on plants, usually the plants can still be alive. _________________________ Continually touching or moving plants will make them grow shorter than other ones. However, in some ways, this change could be helpful. It may help plants to fight against  threats from animals or bad weather.

The findings of the research ( 研究) help us to have a better understanding of the plants. And the research might help with the growth of plants.

【1】The writer wrote this article in order to   .

A.stop people from touching plants B.tell people to protect plants

C.introduce (介绍) a scientist to us D.explain a new finding about plants

【2】What does the underlined word “threats”mean according to the passage?

A.威胁 B.保护 C.援助 D.改变

【3】Which of the following statements may be the missing part in Paragraph 4 ?

A.Touching changes the plants, it makes them grow more slowly until they die.

B.Touching changes the plants, but it’s not always a bad change.

C.We should protect the plants from being touched by humans or animals.

D.Scientists don’t care that touching may have a strong influence on plants at all.

【4】Which of the following is wrong according to the passage?

A.Babies and pets liked to be touched.

B.The scientist did the experiment to test if touching can change the genes of plants.

C.The experiment lasted for four weeks.

D.Touching plants is not always bad for their growth.
