21、阅读理解。

Those accustomed to looking through thousands of books in big bookstores may find  Japan’s Morioka Shoten a little strange．That’s because this tiny bookstore that is located in  luxury shopping district of Ginza，in Tokyo offers just one title to its customers．

Opened in May 2015，Morioka Shoten(Japanese for bookstore)is the brainchild of Yoshiyuki Morioka．The experienced bookseller began his career as a bookstore clerk in Tokyo’s Kanda district before branching out to open his own store．It was here while organizing book readings that he realized that customers usually came into the store with one title in mind．Morioka began to wonder if a store could exist by selling many copies of just one single book．In November 2014，he partnered with his two friends，to establish a unique bookstore with the idea‘A Single Room，A Single Book．’

Like its offering，the bookstore is simple．The selections that are picked by Morioka change weekly and vary widely to attract customers with different interests．Recent choices include The True Deceiver，all award-winning Swedish novel by Tove Jansson，Hans Christian Andersen’s Fairy Tales．and a collection of artist Karl Blossfeldt’s photography of plants．Morioka has also displayed books written by famous Japanese authors Mimei Ogawa and ito Akagi．

To highlight his single offering，Morioka often uses clever methods．For example，when selling a book about flowers，he decorated his shop with the ones that had been mentioned in the book．He also encourages featured authors to hold multiple talks and discussions so they can connect with customers．Morioka says his ultimate goal is for the customers to perience being inside a book，not just a bookstore!

Risky as the idea might seem，things appear to be going well．Morioka says he has sold over 2,100 books since he opened it．Things can only get better given that his bookstore is becoming increasingly popular not just among the locals but also visitors from other countries•

A．The practice he used to select books．

B．The way he partnered with his friends．

22、   The summer before my 10th birthday my father moved our family of nine kids to a farm. We had always lived in a small city, in the house my dad had gotten from my grandparents, who had wanted fresh air, green food and lots of room for their children but failed. My father held the same will. He’d worked multiple jobs and saved for many years... and could finally afford a place in the countryside. Now a minor concern: the house had no running water or electricity. But there were 150 acres to run around in.

That first year my dad put in electricity, because my mom simply announced, “I won’t have oil lamps with children running around!” Indoor plumbing(管道系统) had to wait another year. Different friends, who my dad knew from work, asked if he’d take their large dogs who couldn’t run free in the city. So we all now played with a big orange-brown boxer and a sporty German Shorthaired Pointer, who we named Billy and Molly.

Minimalism was our goal, and also our only choice. Absolutely our clothes were hand-me-downs. Bananas and oranges were rare “imported” fruit we’d seen at holiday. We felt we were younger than peers (同龄人) -there was ONE birthday party a year! We’d take turns…once every 9 years a child would have his/her own party!

While money was so scarce, we had joy to hand all the time. My mother was always singing, yelling, or hugging. And she told us we owned plenty! To this day, each of us remembers those years as an abundance of things, laughter, arguing, making peace, and playing together! Every challenge was a game to defeat, and any failure was a chance to learn there.

【1】Why did the author’s father move their family to a farm?

A．To carry out the wish of his parents.

B．To start a brand new life in a luxury house.

C．To improve the children’s living environment.

D．To get rid of the heavy workload in the city.

【2】What can we learn from paragraph 2?

A．There was no electricity in their rooms.

B．Two dogs became part of the author’s life.

C．The author’s mother had a sharp tongue.

D．Their rural life became the envy of friends.

【3】What is the author’s tone in paragraph 3?

A．Hopeful.

B．Upset.

C．Amazed.

D．Amusing.

【4】Which of the following can replace the underlined word “scarce” in the last paragraph?

A．Practical.

B．Accurate.

C．Tight.

D．Essential.

23、   The Ig Nobel Prize, a spoof （滑稽模仿）of the actual Nobel Prize, exists to award the 10 strangest research projects of the year that bring you fun and make you think. The following are three of them in 2019.

Medicine Prize: Pizza

It's one of the world's most popular foods. According to the Ig Nobel Medicine Prize winner, eating more pizzas can lower the risk of cancer and heart disease — if your pizza is loaded with fruits and veggies. These provide flavonoids （类黄酮）to fight against certain diseases. So, if you're a pizza enthusiast, you now have one more reason to love it!

Economics Prize: Dirty Money

Paper money, the most frequently passed items on the planet, is known to pick up all kinds of bacteria. Which country's currency is the dirtiest? An international team compared seven countries, paper money. The Romanian Leu was the only one to carry all three types of bacteria tested. And the US Dollar was also a finalist. Perhaps this will make cashless payments more popular.

Biology Prize: Cockroach

Cockroaches (（蟑螂）)）are well known for their survival abilities, but few folks know they can sense magnetic fields. More surprisingly, an international team found that dead cockroaches have more magnetic properties （磁性）than live ones. That's because magnetic properties decrease when the temperature gets higher. So if you can stand cockroaches, they may be good magnetic sensors （传感器）.

【1】What do the three prizes have in common?

A.They are beneficial to our health.

B.They are entertaining and unusual.

C.They've gained the recognition of the Nobel Prize.

D.They are stranger than any other project in previous years.

【2】What can we learn from the passage?

A.People with heart disease should eat more pizzas.

B.US Dollar is relatively dirtier than Romanian Leu.

C.Dirty paper money leads to cashless payments.

D.Dead cockroaches are better magnetic sensors than live ones.

【3】In which column can you find this passage in a newspaper?

A.Discovery. B.Sports.

C.Health. D.Business.

24、I have got kinds of gifts in my big closet. I am a closet regifter(赠礼). Don’t judge me. Regifting is a longstanding southern tradition. I mean, don’t waste what you don’t want, right? Most of you probably have a shelf or a drawer at home that houses some things that are nice but just aren’t for you. So, rather than discard them, you should save them for a rainy day when you realize you need just the right thing for that person you totally forgot about.

My mom keeps a closet filled with goodies to give. And my grandmother? One year she gave my mom a really interesting sweater on Christmas Day. After dinner we pulled the videos and we watched everyone open the gifts from the year before. What did we see? My grand mother received the exactly same sweater that she had just given my mom! So see? There was no way I was going to be able to avoid the tradition.

You would think I would learn my lesson since I have had a regift or two backfire on me. Once, I sent my cousin a wedding present from my store, a clock that was given to me on my birthday by my crazy aunt Nadine. It was unique. I truly thought she would love it. Weeks later I received a thank-you note for my thoughtful gift:

Dear Erica,

Thank you so much for the wonderful clock. I was a little confused when I opened it up and there was a card inside that said, “Happy Birthday Erica. Love, Aunt Nadine”.

Awkward! But even after all that, my annoyance remains. I mean, I promise I’ll quit someday. But first, I just have to get rid of the useless gifts in my closet. Any takers?

【1】What does the underlined word “discard” in paragraph 1 mean?

A．Produce.

B．Value.

C．Take apart.

D．Throw away.

【2】What is unavoidable for the author according to paragraph 2?

A．Getting a genetic disorder.

B．Keeping the habit of regifting.

C．Forgetting about someone faraway.

D．Receiving the sweater as a Christmas gift.

【3】How did the author feel about her cousin’s thanks?

A．It’s humorous.

B．It’s unexpected.

C．It’s embarrassing.

D．It’s discouraging.

【4】What can we learn about regifting from the text?

A．It will disappear soon.

B．It sometimes troubles the author.

C．It should keep up with the times.

D．It changes the relationship between relatives.

25、   2-year-old Truett Palmer was born in Missouri, with a genetic disorder and an inborn (先天的)_________disease.

Following a(n)____________effort by Gray and the Palmer family to transport Zeda____________state lines, the Goldendoodle puppy was in Truett's arms just in time for Christmas morning. “He was so excited,” Danielle said. “You could just see the____________on his face the moment she’s placed on his lap.
