21、Mother's Day is traditionally a day for flowers, chocolates and big hugs, when children will have a chance to let their mother feel their love, but Willow Smith did something different for her mom Jada Pinkett Smith. Willow got her mom's metal band back together and stepped into her mom's shoes, giving a special live performance.

Jada Pinkett Smith was the singer of Wicked Wisdom, which she formed in 2002 alongside Honore, Graves, Rio Lawrence and Philip Fisher.

Willow remembered travelling somewhere with her mother on tour with her metal band Wicked Wisdom and watching old home videos, including one where she and her brother Jaden Smith cleaned the outside of the tour bus. “This is the music that I grew up around. My mother was a superwoman. She was a rock star; she was a fighter all in one. So I was my mom's biggest fan," said Willow.

To show her respect for the woman, the 20-year-old star followed in her mother's legendary footsteps and performed one of her favorite Wicked Wisdom songs, Bleed All Over Me, with Jada's band members, including guitarist Pocket Honore and keyboardist Taylor Graves.

Willow brought Jada out from the living room, and then Jada was sent to the driveway safely where the performance was held. The great mother who could always face anything calmly could no longer control her tears when she saw that her own song was being sung by her daughter. Willow and Jada shared a tearful hug for the touching closer.

【1】Why did Willow Smith bring her mom's metal band together?

22、A few years ago, I was leaving the kennel (养狗场) where I worked, only to find a baby goat at the end of the driveway. The kennel’s owners are known animal rescuers and I figured someone outside dumped him over the fence.

I’m an animal lover and I’ve brought home dogs, cats, horses, chickens and fish, but never goats. The tiny kid was too adorable to resist. I named him Quincy, and with the help of some experienced friends, bottle-fed him in my bathroom. Quincy proved to be quite special. When he was about a week old, I tapped my fingers on the bathroom floor and said, “Lie down.” I was amazed when he dropped down. I was even more amazed when he did it three times in a row.

A quick study, Quincy learned to lie down, bow, and turn in a circle in no time. He is house-trained, jumps in the back of my SUV when I say “load up,” and spends the day wandering with my dogs, whom he considers his brothers and sisters. He knows the name of everything I feed him — apples, water, carrots, and strawberries.

I love to train animals and often take my dogs to shows where they can perform their tricks. Quincy did his first show when he was just six weeks old. He knew only a few tricks then, but he did them perfectly and never misbehaved or got nervous in front of the crowd.

Now he has a whole inventory: He’ll shake hooves (蹄), come when called, walk on a rope, wave, smile for the camera, and more. Quincy and my dogs perform regularly at schools, nursing homes, and charity events. Quincy can even “read” his tricks off cue cards (提示板), which always earns the most applause.

It’s hard to believe that the goat kid nobody wanted turned out to be one of the smartest and most good-natured animals I’ve ever had.

【1】What can we learn about the baby goat from Paragraph 1?

A．He was injured.

B．He was sold.

C．He was deserted.

D．He was mistreated.

【2】What made the author decide to bring the baby goat home?

A．His affection for the little goat.

B．The request of the kennel’s owner.

C．The advice of his friends.

D．His strong desire to keep a pet.

【3】What does the author think of Quincy?

A．Faithful and shy.

B．Strong and aggressive.

C．Hardworking and brave.

D．Intelligent and obedient.

【4】Which is the most suitable title for the text?

A．Quincy: A Poor Creature

B．Quincy: The Show Goat

C．Quincy: My Best Friend

D．Quincy: A Special Trainer

23、

Grey clouds move as low as smoke over the treetops at Lolo Pass. The ground is white. The day is June 10.It has been snowing for the past four days in the Bitterroot Mountains.Wayne Fairchild is getting worried about our trek over the Lolo Trail-95 miles from Lolo Montana to Weippe in Idaho, across the roughest country in the West. Lewis and Clark were nearly defeated 200 years ago by snowstorms on the Lolo.Today Fairchild is nervously checking the weather reports.He has agreed to take me across the toughest,middle section of the trail.

When Lewis climbed on top of Lemhi Pass,140 miles south of Missoula,on Aug.12,1805,he was astonished by what was in front of him;“high mountain chains still to the West of us with their tops partially covered with snow.”Nobody in what was then the US knew the Rocky Mountains existed,with peaks twice as high as anything in the Appalachians back East.

Today their pathway through those mountains holds more attraction than any other ground over which they traveled,for its raw wilderness is an evidence to the character of two cultures:the explorers who braved its hardships and the Native Americans who prize and conserve the path as a sacred (神圣的)gift. It remains today the same condition as when Lewis and Clark walked it.

The Lolo is passable only from July to mid-September.Our luck is holding with the weather,although the snow keeps getting deeper.As we climb to Indian Post Office,the highest point on the trail at 7,033 ft,we have covered 13 miles in soft snow,and we hardly have enough energy to make dinner.After a meal of chicken,I sit on a rock on top of the ridge (山脊）.There is no light visible in any direction,not even another campfire.For four days we do not see another human being.We are occupied with the things that mix fear with joy.In our imagination we have finally caught up with Lewis and Clark.

【1】 We learn from the text that before 1805 .

A.The Rocky Mountains were wholly covered with snow

B.there were no people living in the western part of America

C.no Americans knew of the existence of the Rocky Mountains

D.the Appalachians were the western frontier of the United States

【2】We learn from the text that the Lolo Pass  .

A.has changed a lot since 1805

B.is the meeting point of three cultures

C.remains much the same as it was 200 years ago

D.now attracts a large number of tourists to visit

【3】Judging from the text,Lewis and Clark were most probably  .

A.two native Indians  

B.explorers of the early 19th century

C.merchants who did business with the Indians

D.travelers whose curiosity took them over the Lolo Pass

【4】We can infer from the text that when crossing the Lolo Pass the author  .

A.was attempting the impossible 

B.was trying to set a world record

C.was following the trail of Lewis and Clark

D.was fighting with weather and taking unnecessary risks

24、Todd Endris was surfing when a 15-foot shark hit him three times, but thanks to a couple of dolphins and a friend he survived.

The attack occurred on Tuesday, Aug. 28, just before 11 a.m. at Marina State Park off Monterey, Calif, where 24-year-old Todd Endris had gone with friends for a day of the sport they love.

“It came out of nowhere. There’s no warning at all. It was just a giant shark,” Endris said. The shark hit him fast as Endris was sitting on his surfboard. “The second time, he came down and clamped on my body --- sandwiched my board and my body in his mouth,” Endris said.

That attack wounded his back seriously. The third time, the shark tried to swallow Endris’ right leg.

The dolphins, which had been swimming freely in the surf all along, showed up then. They circled him, keeping the shark at bay, and enabled Endris to get back on his board and catch a wave to the shore.

His friend, Brian Simpson, is an X-ray technician in a hospital. He had seen Endris coming in and knew he was hurt. Blood was pumping out of the leg, which had been bitten to the bone, and Endris, who lost half his blood, became very pale. To stop the blood loss, Simpson used his surf leash（挽绳）as a tourniquet（绷带）which probably saved his life.

“Thanks to this guy,” Endris said, referring to Simpson, “once I got to the beach, he was calming me down and keeping me from losing more blood by telling me to slow my breathing and really just be calm. They wouldn’t let me look at my wounds at all, which really helped.”

Seven weeks later, he was well enough to go surfing again, and the place he went to was in the same spot where he almost lost his life. It wasn’t easy to go back in the water.

“You really have to face your fears,” he told a reporter from New York Times. “I’m a surfer at heart, and that’s not something I can give up easily. It was hard. But it was something you have to do.”

【1】What is the passage intended to tell us?

A．The importance of first aid.

B．The danger of surfing.

C．Endris’s survival in a shark attack

D．The value of friendship.

【2】The underlined word “clamp” in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to ______.

A．press hard.

B．hold tightly.

C．drop sharply.

D．dance happily.

【3】What do you know about Todd Endris from the last two paragraphs?

A．He is very chicken-hearted.

B．He is extremely determined.

C．He is rather cautious.

D．He is quite ridiculous.

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。

It was Christmas 1961. I was teaching in a small town where my twenty-seven third graders eagerly expected the great day of gift-giving.

Each day the children made some new wonders-strings of popcorn, hand-made decorations, and German bells made from wallpaper samples, which we hung from the ceiling. Through it all she stayed indifferent, watching from a distance, seemingly miles away. I wondered what would happen to this quiet child, once so happy, now so suddenly unsociable. I hoped the celebrations would light her up. But nothing did. We made cards and gifts for mothers and dads, for sisters and brothers, for grandparents, and for each other. At home the students made the fried marbles（油炸玻璃弹子） and competed with one another to bring in the prettiest ones. As my gift to them, I made each of my students a little bag for carrying their fried marbles. And I knew they had each made something special for me.

The day of gift giving finally came. We oohed and aahed over our handwork as the presents were exchanged. But she sat quietly watching. I had made a special bag for her, red and green with white lace, hoping very much to see her smile. She opened it so slowly and carefully. I waited but she turned away. I had not passed through the wall of isolation she had built around herself.

After school the children left in little groups, but she hesitated, watching them go out of the door. I sat down in a child-sized chair to catch my breath, hardly knowing what was happening when she came to me reaching out her hands, holding a small white box unwrapped and slightly soiled, as though it had been held many times by unwashed, childish hands. She said nothing.

“For me?” I asked with a weak smile.
