21、All over the world people enjoy sports. Sports help to keep people healthy and happy, and to live longer.

Many people like to watch others play games. They buy tickets or turn on their TVs to watch the games. Often they get very excited when “their” player or team wins.

Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for them. Football, for example, has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers. What fun it is to jump into a pool or lake, whether in China, Egypt or Italy! And think of people in cold countries. Think how many people love to skate or ski in Norway or Canada.

Some sports or games go back thousands of years, like running or jumping. Chinese wushu, for example, has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. Neither one is a hundred years old yet. People are inventing new sports or games all the time. Waterskiing is one of the newest in the family of sports.

22、Oct. 15th was International White Cane Safety Day. You may have never heard of it, but it was a day to remember for Peng Baier of Nanjing Foreign Language School. After school that day, he visited the local Disabled Persons’ Federation (残疾人联合会). He wanted to know about the sales and feedback (反馈) of his newly­published book, How to Help a Disabled Person.

Since he lives with his disabled grandparents, he understands that life can be hard for this group of people. Peng decided to write the book because he wanted to create a better life for disabled people in China.

“Crossing the street is a big problem for them,” Peng said. “Speeding cars, people walking in a hurry, bikes on the sidewalk—accidents can happen everywhere for the blind. That’s why we hardly ever see disabled people on the street, even though there are millions of disabled people in China.”

Peng’s book with pictures is easy to understand. It is a guide to the right and wrong ways to treat disabled people. The left­hand pages show the reader the right way; the right­hand pages point out mistakes that are commonly made.

The teenager had 2, 000 copies of his book printed. With the help of the Disabled Persons’ Federation, he gave them to the disabled community. “The book is bilingual, so foreigners can also use it,” said Peng.

Peng put great efforts into the book. For example, he interviewed many disabled people to get first hand materials. He also studied textbooks from different schools for the disabled. Peng finally completed his handbook, but he still had the problem of getting it printed. How did a high school student raise money needed for that?

With a smile, Peng said how he went about it. “I visited three local companies, dressed up in a suit and tie. I was lucky. The companies were warm­hearted and willing to give me a hand.”

【1】Why is Peng able to understand the hard life of the disabled people?

A．Because he was born disabled.

B．Because he has a disabled friend.

C．Because he lives with his disabled grandparents.

D．Because he once read a book about the disabled.

【2】What does the underlined word in Paragraph 5 mean?

A．Written in two languages.

B．Using different pictures.

C．Very easy to understand.

D．Very popular around the world.

【3】Peng put a lot of efforts into the book except ________.

A．raising the money needed

B．giving away his pocket money

C．interviewing many disabled people

D．studying textbooks for the disabled

【4】What words can best describe Peng?

A．Devoted and honest.

B．Brave and confident.

C．Kind and helpful.

D．Friendly and lovely.

23、Many people tend to peel(削皮)fruit and vegetables when preparing them. But often, it’s not necessary.【1】What’s more, discarded(被丢弃的)fruit and vegetable peels cause climate change.

Fruit and vegetables are rich sources of vitamins, minerals, fiber and many phytochemicals that protect your cells from harm.【2】In 2017, the World Health Organization reported that around 3.9 million deaths a year worldwide were linked to people not eating enough fruit and vegetables.

Eating 400g of fruit and vegetables a day, as the WHO recommends, is difficult to achieve for many people. So could consuming fruit and vegetable peels help with this issue by adding important nutrients to people’s diets?【3】For example, nutritionally important amounts of vitamins, such as vitamin C, and minerals like iron and zinc, are found in the peel of root vegetables like wild carrots, sweet potatoes and white potatoes. And the US Department of Agriculture shows that unpeeled apples contain 15% more vitamin C than their peeled equivalents.

【4】According to the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization, uneaten food, including peel, generates 8%—10% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. New Zealand alone reports an annual wastage of 13,658 tons of vegetable peels and 986 tons of fruit peels.

Given the nutrient content of peel and its contribution to food waste, why do people peel fruit and vegetables? Some must be peeled for different reasons. For example, their outer portions are uneatable, don’t taste nice, are hard to clean or cause harm. Also, peeling may be a necessary part of the recipe, for example, when making mashed potato(土豆泥).

Are you still confused about whether to peel fruit and vegetables?【5】

A．They can certainly contribute.

B．There are important nutrients in the peel.

C．Sometimes, it’s necessary to peel fruit and vegetables.

D．Actually, if many peels are eatable, don’t peel them if unnecessary.

E．With a little creativity, you can increase your fruit and vegetable intake.

F．Another reason for not discarding peels is their effect on the environment.

G．Not consuming enough of these nutrient-rich foods leads to an increased risk of deadly diseases.

24、Jaye Gardiner was born with a strong interest in science. When she was in Grade One, she was invited to take part in a second-grade science class. Gardiner was very excited.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。

Standing in front of the mirror one day, I came to the disturbing realization that I fell short of the requirements of my dream. The reflection that stared back was of a skinny brown-haired girl who stood a mere five feet tall. My entire life had been about dedication and trying to be the best dancer in my studio. I’d always had brilliant dreams and high ambitions. I never noticed how hard it might be to achieve something that you really wanted. Most people spend their whole lives searching for their calling, but I’ve known that I was born to be a dancer since I met my brilliant inspiring mentor, Lorie Bernier, 5 feet 1 inch. I’ve devoted sixteen years to helping my dream come true to be a lifelong dance teacher at my studio.

Last summer I attended an audition class in Boston taught by a highly respected Broadway dancer. At this seminar he explained the procedures for getting into a dance company. While listening and taking notes, I was thinking that I certainly had the experience, but there was one area where I didn’t quite measure up. He informed us that at most audition all dancers under 5 feet 6 inches are automatically eliminated or simply overlooked. He said that most casting directors were looking for the stereotyped dancer with long legs, a long neck and a size one waist. Standing half a foot under this height, I felt my heart drop to the floor.

It is really hard to listen to someone basically telling you, “Sorry, but you’ve been working really hard for sixteen years for nothing, so find a new dream.” Unfortunately, it just doesn’t work that way. Dancing isn’t just a hobby for me; it’s more like an addiction. I exhibit every step heart and soul. Through dance I find a sense of pride and satisfaction that I don’t think anyone could understand or appreciate. To have all that I’ve ever wanted instantly shot down created a sick feeling in my stomach.

Paragraph 1：

Furthermore, I knew that at that moment I could do one of two things.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Paragraph 2：

However, it really doesn’t matter how high the disadvantages are against me, for I will rise above them.
