21、   John George, 60, remembers that he lived a wonderful life in the Detroit neighborhood where he grew up. “We knew all our neighbors.” George told Detroit's Metro Times. “On Christmas Eve, we'd all go to midnight Mass, and there'd be 300 people in our house at one o’clock to about five in the morning. The folks were just really good, hardworking people. ”

By the'80s, however, the old neighborhood changed. Due in part to economic downturns and drug abuse, well -kept homes had been abandoned and kindly neighbors had fled to the suburbs(郊区). But not George. “Living in any city, it’s like being in a relationship,” he told Reader’s Digest. “Some days are better than others. But it was my home. And when I saw it becoming worse, I had two choices: I could leave, or I could stay and fight. I chose the latter.”

When the abandoned home behind his turned into a worn-out place, the father of two grabbed some boards and nails and began boarding up the house. After two neighbors stopped to ask what he was doing, they decided to help, with great results.

That's how it all got started. In the 30 years since that first home rescue, an army of approximately 182,000 volunteers, along with private donors, has helped George pull down around 300 abandoned homes, mainly in die poorer Northwest area of Detroit. They've also secured 400 - some homes by boarding them up. They've painted and repaired nearly 900 homes and built over 100 from scratch. According to Forbes, more than 1,000 Detroiters have been housed as a result of their work.

And there's Halloween. In Detroit, October 30 was known as Devil's Night, a period when all hell break loose in the form of crime and vandalism (破坏公物). In response, George created a citizens' patrol(巡逻)that would take to the streets, keeping an eye on illegal behavior. He named it Angels' Night What began with 12 neighbors on patrol in 1990 has grown to more than 60,000 citywide.

George's inspired ideas have not gone unnoticed by the city he loves. Others are buying into it. There's a trend of younger homeowners coming in.

【1】What was George’s home city Detroit like before the ’80s?

A. Neighbors were nice and got along very well.

B. People in the suburbs led a wonderful life.

C. Economy declined because of drug abuse.

D. Many homes were abandoned and people lied.

【2】What did George decide to do after his neighborhood changed?

A. Move to the suburbs. B. Leave his hometown.

C. Join his neighbors to help. D. Stay and fight to save his city.

【3】What happened as a result of George and other volunteers' hard work?

A. More people moved into Detroit.

B. Almost all Detroiters were housed.

C. Over 100 homes were newly built.

D. There was no illegal behavior any more.

【4】What does the story mainly intend to toll us?

A. Great minds think alike.

B. Two heads are better than one.

C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

D. Little people can make a big difference.

22、   Smooth balls of ice rolled ashore on a beach in Finland and piled up like a huge bunch of turtles' eggs. But where did these “ice eggs” come from?

Amateur photographer Risto Mattila stumbled upon the strange sight while walking with his wife on Hailuoto Island. The temperature remained around minus 1degree Celsius that day, he said, and the wind blew quickly across the beach. “There we found this amazing phenomenon. There was snow and ice eggs along the beach near the water line”.

The “ice eggs” littered an area the length of about one-quarter of a football field and ranged in size from that of an average chicken egg to that of a powerful soccer ball. Mattila took a photo, noting that he had “never seen anything like this during 25 years around here.” Others came upon the ice eggs, too. “I've never seen this before. The whole beach was almost full of these ice balls,” said Tarja Terentjeff, who lives in the nearby town of Oulu. Another local, Sirpa Tero, told CNN she’d seen snowballs line the shoreline before, but not over such a large area.

“Although it happens once in a blue moon, these ice eggs form similarly to sea glass or rounded stones that wash up on the beach.” said BBC Weather expert George Goodfellow. Chunks(块) of ice break off from larger ice sheets in the sea and either slide to shore on the incoming tide or get pushed in by strong spells of wind at the water' s surface, he explained. Waves buffet(冲击) the ice chunks as they travel, slowly eroding their rough edges into smooth curves. Seawater sticks and freezes to the forming eggs, causing them to grow like snowballs do as they roll across the ground, leaving behind nothing but smooth and shiny “eggs” for curious tourists to happen upon.

【1】The underlined phrase “stumbled upon” in Paragraph 2 can be best replaced by_ _

A.pulled through B.survived from

C.ran across D.took notes of

【2】What can we know from Paragraph 3?

A.It was a very unusual phenomenon. B.Ice eggs gathered in a football field.

C.Only a quarter of the area was stricken. D.The beach was completely ice-covered.

【3】According to Goodfellow, how did the “ice eggs” come into being?

A.By means of sea water buffeting the wood chunks.

B.On the basis of the strong force of the cold wind.

C.By way of the special location and cold weather.

D.Through a rare combination of weather and waves.

【4】What does the text mainly talk about?

A.An extraordinary trip of “ice eggs”. B.The power of wind and seawater.

C.A strange weather-based occurrence. D.How snowball affected the shoreline.

24、Do dogs understand us?

Be careful what you say around your dog．It might understand more than you think．

A border collie named Rico recognizes the names of about 200 objects, say researchers in Germany．The dog also appears to be able to learn new words as easily as a 3-year-old child．Its word-learning skills are as good as those of a parrot or chimpanzee．

In one experiment, the researchers took all 200 items that Rico is supposed to know and divided them into 20 groups of 10 objects．Then the owner told the dog to go and fetch one of the items and bring it back．In four tests, Rico got 37 out of 40 commands right．As the dog couldn't see anyone to get clues, the scientists believe Rico must understand the meanings of certain words．

In another experiment, the scientists took one toy that Rico had never seen before and put it in a room with seven toys whose names the dog already knew．The owner then told Rico to fetch the object, using a word the dog had never heard before．

The correct object was chosen in seven out of ten tests, suggesting that the dog had worked

out the answer by process of elimination（排除法）．A month later, Rico remembered half of the new names, which is even more impressive．

Rico is thought to be smarter than the average dog．For one thing, Rico is a border collie, a breed （品种）known for its mental abilities．In addition, the 9-year-old dog has been trained to fetch toys by their names since the age of nine months．

It's hard to know if all dogs understand at least some of the words we say．Even if they do, they can't talk back．Still, it wouldn't hurt to sweet-talk your dog every now and then．You might just get a big, wet kiss in return!

【1】From paragraph 2 we know that __________．

A．animals are as clever as human beings

B．chimpanzees have very good word-learning skills

C．dogs are smarter than parrots and chimpanzees

D．dogs have similar learning abilities as 3-year-old children

【2】Both experiments show that_____________．

A．Rico is smart enough to get all commands right

B．Rico can recognize different things including toys

C．Rico has developed the ability of learning mathematics

D．Rico won't forget the names of objects once recognizing them

【3】Which of the following statements is true?

A．Rico has a better memory partly because of its proper early training．

B．The purpose of the experiments is to show the border collie's mental abilities．

C．The border collie is world-famous for recognizing objects．

D．Rico is born to understand its owner's commands．

【4】What does the writer want to tell us?

A．To train your dog．
