21、A schoolgirl saved her father's life by kicking him in the chest after he suffered a serious allergic (过敏的) reaction which stopped his heart.

Izzy, nine, restarted father Colm's heart by stamping (踩) on his chest after he fell down at home and stopped breathing.

Izzy's mother, Debbie, immediately called 999 but Izzy knew doctors would never arrive in time to save her father, so decided to use CPR.

However, she quickly discovered her arms weren't strong enough, so she stamped on her father's chest instead.

Debbie then took over with some more conventional chest compressions (按压) until the ambulance arrived.

Izzy, who has been given a bravery award by her school, said: "I just kicked him really hard．My mum taught me CPR but I knew I wasn't strong enough to use hands．I was quite scared．The doctor said I might as well be a doctor or a nurse．My mum said that Dad was going to hospital with a big footprint on his chest.”

"She's a little star," said Debbie, "I was really upset but Izzy just took over．I just can't believe what she did．I really think all children should be taught first aid．Izzy did CPR then the doctor turned up．Colm had to have more treatment on the way to the hospital and we've got to see an expert."

Truck driver Colm, 35, suffered a mystery allergic reaction on Saturday and was taken to hospital, but was sent home only for it to happen again the next day．The second attack was so serious that his airway swelled, preventing him from breathing, his blood pressure dropped suddenly, and his heart stopped for a moment.

He has now made a full recovery from his suffering.

22、   People do better when more is expected of them. In education circles, this is called the Pygmalion Effect.

The Pygmalion effect got its name from the story of Pygmalion, a mythica（虚构的）Greek sculptor. Pygmalion carved a statue of a woman and then fell in love with it. He appealed to Aphrodite, the goddess of love, who brought the statue to life and helped the couple get married. Just as Pygmalion’s fixation on the statue brought it to life, our focus on a student can do the same in schools. Research by Robert Rosenthal and Lenore Jacobson examined the influence of teachers’ expectations on students’ performance. They began by testing the IQ of elementary school students. Teachers were told that the IQ test showed around one-fifth of their students to be unusually intelligent. But unknown to the teachers, the “gifted” students were chosen at random. Actually they had no big statistical advantage over the other kids. As the study period ended, all students had their IQs retested. Both groups showed an improvement. Yet those who were described as intelligent experienced much greater gains in their IQ points. Rosenthal and Jacobson owed this result to the Pygmalion effect. Teachers paid more attention to “gifted” students, offering more support and encouragement than they would otherwise.

In general, teachers have the power to influence how the students behave by holding high expectations. If a teacher thinks a student is brilliant, they will treat them as such. The student then gets more opportunities to develop their ability, and their performance improves. This works both ways. When a student expects a teacher to be excellent or successful, they tend to be attentive and supportive. In the process, they improve their performance, too. Students who act interested in lectures create interesting lecturers.

【1】Where did the Pygmalion effect get its name from?

A.A statue of a lady. B.The goddess of love.

C.A character in a literary work. D.The story made up by Pygmalion.

【2】The underlined expression “fixation on” in Paragraph 2 most probably means

A.worship of B.affection for C.marriage to D.sympathy for

【3】What is the purpose of Rosenthal and Jacobson’s research?

A.To improve the kids’ IQ. B.To pick out gifted students.

C.To expand teachers’ influence. D.To examine the Pygmalion effect.

【4】What can students do to make a teacher excellent?

A.Support the teacher by treating them as excellent.

B.Attend interesting lectures given by the teacher.

C.Work hard to get prepared for opportunities.

D.Show great interest in lectures on acting.

23、A major new facility to pull CO2 out of the atmosphere has started operating in Iceland, which is a boost to an emerging technology that experts say could eventually play an important role in reducing greenhouse gases.

The plant in southwest Iceland is the biggest of its kind, its builder says. It is able to capture 900 tons of CO2 every year but it needs heat and electricity to work. It is using energy produced from waste and is built on the roof of a waste incineration plant, and through the burning of rubbish, energy is generated.

Human-sized fans are built into a series of boxes. They take CO2 out of the air, catching it in sponge like filters(过滤器). The filters are blasted with heat freeing the gas, which is then mixed with water and pumped deep into deep underground basalt caves, where over time it turns into dark-gray stone. Pumping CO2 into the ground is just one way to deal with it. The makers are also selling the gas to be used again. The CO2 can be captured just a few 100 miles away. It is pumped through an underground pipe line directly into a greenhouse. Vegetables and plants love CO2 and higher concentrations of the gas within the greenhouse improve the growth of plants.

By 2050, humanity will need to pull nearly a billion metric tons of CO2 from the atmosphere every year through direct air capture technology to achieve carbon neutral(碳中和) goals, according to International Energy Agency recommendations. The plant in Iceland will be able to capture 4,000 metric tons annually—just a small amount of what will be necessary, but one that Clime works, the company that built it, says can grow rapidly as efficiency improves and costs decrease.

【1】What does the underlined word “boost” mean in Paragraph 1?

A．Promotion.

B．Advertisement.

C．Decrease.

D．Innovation.

【2】What do we know about the new facility ?

A．It uses waste to get power.

B．It is built at high water level.

C．It makes Iceland free of air pollution.

D．It produces lots of heat during operation.

【3】What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?

A．The ways of breaking down CO2.

B．The approaches to reusing waste gas.

C．The necessity of building greenhouses.

D．The workings of the carbon-catching plant.

【4】What can be expected from the direct air capture technology?

A．Decreasing the cost of energy production.

B．The rapid reduction of CO2 levels in the air.

C．The early realization of the carbon neutral goals.

D．The disappearance of the traditional carbon treatment.

24、Chinese Literature Readers' Club was recently launched in Beijing in a bid to promote the country's literature around the world.

Initiated by China Writers Association, literature organizations and Chinese literature lovers overseas, this club will provide a platform for communication about, and the exchange of, literature from home and abroad.

Speaking at the launch ceremony in August, Tie Ning, head of China Writers Association, said that reading, appreciating and exchanging ideas about literary works from a country will help to break through ignorance, isolation and prejudices, enabling people to not be blinded by stereotypical views and really be able to understand a country's historical origins, cultural context, social development and philosophical ideas.

She added that it also allows people to spiritually get close to, and understand, the rich emotional world of the people there and their vibrant life, and to feel that “we are all a part of a community with a shared future for mankind”.

Chinese literature has a history of “several thousand years”, including countless jewels that can be called an inheritance of human civilization that can be kept as permanent memories, as well as excellent modern and contemporary works that can arouse empathy in readers around the world. However, few Chinese writers are really known by readers in other countries, apart from those who have won international literary awards, Tie noted.

“It is, therefore, our common cultural mission to establish Chinese Literature Readers’ Club to introduce Chinese literature to the world, and to increase the mutual understanding and friendship between different peoples,” Tie said.

The clubs in different countries will build a bridge for overseas readers to get in touch with contemporary Chinese literature and its writers. They will organize events, both online and in-person, through local educational institutions, publishing houses, libraries, traditional media and social media networks.

So far, the club has set up branches in 12 countries-Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Turkey, Iran, Russia, Poland, Serbia, Germany, France, Britain and Chile.

【1】Why was Chinese Literature Readers’ Club set up?

A．To help Chinese writers sell more books.

B．To inspire more people to become writers.

C．To spread Chinese literature to other countries.

D．To invite more foreign writers to write in China.

【2】What can we infer about Chinese literature?

A．It is hard for foreign readers to understand.

B．It lacks modern and contemporary works.

C．It is not so good as foreign literature.

D．It is not very popular in the world.

【3】How does the Club work?

A．By building bridges in other countries.

B．By organizing different kinds of activities.

C．By getting in touch with readers online.       `

D．By setting up branches within the country.

【4】Which is the best title of the passage?

A．Future Road Reshaped for Chinese Readers

B．Chinese Literature Gets Boost from New Book Club

C．Chinese Literature Needs New Blood from the World

D．Measures Should Be Taken to Protect Chinese Literature
