21、   Geese live to be around 25 years old, are very loyal, and never forget their first home. Even so, it came as a total shock to me when, in 2019, an aging adult wild goose made his way back to my family home. Geese love houses with large, green grassland to eat on; the flat area also makes it easy for them to watch out for predators (捕食者). So, at first, I assumed it was just another goose.

And yet, something about the lone male seemed oddly familiar to me. After two weeks of the goose coming back repeatedly, it became clear to me that this wasn’t a random goose. He did all of the same things Peeper used to, like trying to come in through the front door and sleeping in our enclosed pool area. In addition to following Peeper’s old ways, this goose also responded to the name Peeper. Much to my amazement, my old best friend had returned, 20 years later.

Why did Peeper return? It’s hard to say. Perhaps his mate died, leaving him lonely. If s also possible that he is approaching his twilight (薄脣) years and knows it, making him long for his early home. This behavior is typical of geese. Whatever the reason, Peeper continues to live with me. It’s a good thing that I stayed in my childhood home.

He doesn’t come home every single night the way he did as a baby. Some nights he may seek out the comfort of his own kind at the lake nearby. Geese in the wild typically sleep on water. But he’s here a lot, making his presence known and giving me joy. Many years later, the goose still remembers the true meaning of family. So do his people.

【1】What was the author’s feeling at first?

A.Joyful. B.Natural.

C.Shocked. D.Strange.

【2】Which best suggests that the goose was Peeper?

A.The goose kept coming back.

B.The goose reacted to the name.

C.The goose fed on the grassland.

D.The goose slept at the front door.

【3】What can we infer from paragraph 3?

A.Peepers mate had made him return.

B.Peeper was too old to live in the wild.

C.The writer knew why Peeper returned.

D.The writer felt lucky to have Peeper back.

【4】What does the author think of Peeper’s frequent presence?

A.He takes it as a sign of family bond.

B.He considers it as typical of geese.

C.He thinks Peeper is seeking comfort.

D.He supposes it to be a past habit.

22、As new year approaches, crowds around the world may be expecting fireworks to light up the sky. But the fireworks could finally lose their appeal with the growing use of drones (无人机) for light shows. One obvious example was drone light show in the opening ceremony of Tokyo Olympics.

Ollie Howitt, a technician at SkyMagic, which used 300 drones to create a display for London’s new year celebration, said demand had increased substantially. She added that drones were increasingly able to fly in greater density and for longer. Howitt also said there were benefits of drones, “They give out no pollutants, they’re reusable, and there’s no fallout or that kind of thing. So in that sense they are a very sensible choice.”

Robert Neff, the general manager at Mercia Harbor, also said the decision to use a drone display at the harbor was down to a number of factors, including the impact of fireworks on animals — from wildlife to the pets of boat owners. “They’ve often commented on how much suffering is caused to their pets by the fireworks,” he said.

But not everyone agrees. Hans Rosling, a spokesperson from the British Fireworks Association said drones could also pose environmental problems. “Suggestions are that drones have less of an impact on the environment, but we have concerns about electrical demand and use of lithium (锂) batteries which are known not to be all that ‘green’,” he said. “The impact of firework use on the environment has been shown to be minor and very short-lived and recent studies have suggested that there is likely to be more pollution from a couple of cars driving to an event than caused by fireworks at an event.”

And there are issues with drone light displays, which need to receive specific safety approval from certain authorities. Some suggest the use of drones doesn’t mean shutting off fireworks. The bangs of fireworks create a sound feeling that is hard to replace. Meanwhile, others prefer the chance to tell stories in the sky by using a series of image.

【1】Why does the writer talk about the Tokyo Olympics in Para 1?

A．To attract readers’ attention to the Olympics.

B．To advocate setting off fireworks in the new year.

C．To introduce the popular use of drones for light shows.

D．To highlight people’s celebration of this opening ceremony.

【2】What did Ollie Howitt think of drone displays?

A．They bring environmental problems.

B．They cause little suffering to the pets.

C．They add color to the new year celebration.

D．They are economical and environmentally-friendly.

【3】Which of the following did Hans Rosling agree with?

A．Firework displays last shorter than drone displays.

B．The pollution from fireworks isn’t as much as people think.

C．Drones have less impact on the environment than fireworks.

D．People should abandon the drone displays because of lithium batteries.

【4】What are people’s attitudes towards drone light displays?

A．Controversial.

B．Favorable.

C．Cautious.

D．Neutral.

23、With Heavenly Lake as the center, the Heavenly Lake and Tianshan Mountains Scenic Area consists of four mountain landscape belts, which covers a total area of 380.69 square kilometers. In the mountains by Heavenly Lake, there live many precious plants and animals, such as snow cocks and roe deer. The tops of the mountains are even home to contemporary glaciers and rich in resources such as copper, iron and mica.

Ideal Sightseeing Season: August and September

Opening Hours: 09:00 - 19:30 in peak season, 10:00-18:00 in off season

Ticket Price:

● Admission fee: 95 yuan from April to October, 45 yuan from November to March.

Note:

● There is an obvious difference in temperature from day and in night in Xinjiang and temperature in some scenic spots is probably lower due to the high elevation or weather change. Therefore, it is still necessary to take along a coat or woolen sweater to keep warm during the summer.

● Located in the northwest, Xinjiang has a lower average temperature than that in most areas of China, but ultraviolet irradiation in it is commonly higher. The highest temperature in some cities such as Turpan can reach above 40 degree Centigrade, so it is suggested to take along effective sun block and some medicine in case of sunburn and sunstroke prevention.

● Xinjiang is a region of an ethnic minority with a common belief of Islam. Pork is one of the biggest taboos for Muslims, so please do NOT bring porky food into a Muslim restaurant or talk about pork in public areas.

● Although most areas of Xinjiang are located in UTC+6, Beijing Time (UTC+8, national standard time of China) is officially used in Xinjiang. Due to the time difference of two hours later, sightseeing in Xinjiang is usually arranged between Beijing Time 09:00 and 20:00.
