26、   The pandemic has put the future on fast-forward, with one noticeable idea: the drive-in cinema.

In the early 1930s, Richard Hollingshead, a car-parts salesman, had an idea. He'd heard his mother complain about how uncomfortable she found the wooden seats in cinemas. What if she could watch a film from the comfort of her car? To test the thought in his driveway, he put a film projector on the front part of his car, hung a sheet from some trees and invited his neighbors. He patented the idea and in June 1933 opened his first drive in cinema near Camden, New Jersey.

But the idea was slow to take off. By 1945 there were only 96 drive-ins in America. Everything changed in 1949 when Hollingshead's patent was overturned, allowing other companies to open drive-ins without having to pay him tax. With the development of an in-car speaker and perfect synchronization with the on-screen image, the number of drive-ins in America jumped to 2,000 by 1950 and more than 4,000 by 1958.

Drive-in cinemas went into a fall in the late 1950s as shopping malls sprang up in American suburbs. The space occupied by drive-ins was more valuable to property developers as a location for daytime shopping, rather than just showing films in the evening. Besides, more and more people had televisions at home.

The few hundred remaining drive-ins have experienced an unexpected rebirth in 2020 as social-distancing requirements forced indoor cinemas to close. This summer 160 Walmart parking lots were turned into temporary drive-ins. In many ways, the covid-19 outbreak has driven us into the future, promoting the adoption of remote working, online learning, e-commerce and telemedicine. When it comes to drive-ins, however, the pandemic has taken us back to the past.

【1】What is a drive-in cinema?

A.A park-in theatre. B.An indoor theatre.

C.A car rental company. D.A parking space.

【2】What does the underlined word “overturned” in paragraph 3 probably mean?

A.Spreading. B.Out of date. C.Registered. D.Out of favor.

【3】What may be one reason for the fall of drive-ins in the late 1950s?

A.People didn't like them anymore. B.They were less interesting than TVs.

C.They were purchased by property developers. D.The space for them was not available anymore.

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

A.The rise and fall of drive-in cinemas.

B.The contributions made by Richard Hollingshead.

C.The unexpected return of drive-ins during the pandemic.

D.The difficult situation of cinemas under the pandemic.

28、For many years now, scientists have reported that we, as human beings, are affecting and changing the Earth’s climate. They say that, in particular, the last 50 years has seen a huge increase in the quantity of greenhouse gases being released into our atmosphere from factories and vehicles, and that this increase is speeding up the process known as global warming. Scientists believe global warming to be by far the biggest environmental problem of the 21st century. So what is it, how is it a danger, and why is it relevant to us?

Global warming is the term used to indicate a rise in the Earth’s temperature which, in turn, causes changes to the Earth’s climate. Scientists have discovered that the accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, which trap the heat from the Sun, control the temperature. When the greenhouse gases increase, more heat is trapped and the Earth’s temperature rises.

The Earth’s temperature has increased by one degree Fahrenheit in the last 100 years. Much of this has been attributed to human activities, such as increased industry, agriculture, the falling of forests, the rise in transport and the burning of fuels.

One degree Fahrenheit may not sound like much, but if we continue to produce greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, we will have to face the repercussions(影响、后果). Scientists warn that global warming will cause catastrophic climate changes, including more frequent flooding, drought and extreme weather. The increase in pollution will also cause serious health impacts and affect agriculture directly.

The melting of the polar ice caps will also have direct consequences, with sea levels rising causing flooding in low-lying areas, such as islands and coastal cities.

So, how can we stop this from happening? Governments everywhere have a responsibility to reduce the production of greenhouse gases. But we can make small changes too. Every person needs to play his/her part. Suggestions include recycling, using public transport, using less water at home, using more energy efficient appliances and switching off lights. Small personal changes will add up to big changes worldwide if we all develop these habits for all of our lives, that is, 70 years or so.

【1】What is by far the biggest environmental problem of the twenty-first century?

A．Air pollution.

B．Greenhouse gases.

C．Climate changes.

D．Global warming.

【2】How long did it take the Earth’s temperature to increase by one degree Fahrenheit?

A．50 years.

B．21 years.

C．A century.

D．70 years.

【3】What is the best summary of this passage?

A．Global warming has become so serious that everyone should take action.

B．Let me introduce global warming to you in detail.

C．Govemments of all countries should call on everyone to take action.

D．It’s never too late for everyone to take steps to prevent global warming.

【4】What is the purpose of the last paragraph?

A．The author affirms that govemments should take action firstly.

B．The author believes we will slop global warming some day.

C．The author takes it for granted that small personal changes can have a small influence.

D．The author suggests everyone should play a role in reducing the production of green gases.

Suddenly, the face of a man appeared on the screen and he started speaking. What kind of man was his? He was so small! The guests’ eyes lit up. Everyone broke into chatter.

31、

For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a 【1】 conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about 【2】: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?

Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to any responsibility for starting it. From the parents' point of view, the only 【3】 of their fight is their adolescents' complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.

In this article, I'll describe three no-win situations that commonly 【4】 between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over 【5】 things. Examples include the color of the teen's hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child's failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his 【6】 to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad 【7】 is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right. It doesn't matter what the topic is--politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg--the 【8】 of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority--someone who actually knows something--and therefore to 【9】 respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to 【10】 that they know more than the other, they'll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.

32、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。续写的词数应为150左右

The little prince, who lived on a tiny planet, decided to visit his neighbor planets. The first of them was inhabited by a king. Dressed in purple and white fur, he was seated a throne(王座), both simple and majestic((庄严的).

“AH! Here is a subject(臣民)!” exclaimed the king, when he saw the little prince coming.

“How could he recognize me when he had never seen me before?” the little prince asked himself. He did not know the world is simplified for kings. To them, all men are subjects.

“Come a little closer so that I may see you better,” said the king, who felt very proud of being at last a king over someone

The little prince looked around to find a place to sit down, but the entire planet was covered by the king's magnificent robe (长袍). So he remained standing upright, and, since he was tired, he yawned(打哈欠)

“It is impolite to yawn in the presence of a king, said the king. "I forbid you to do so,”

“I can't help it,” replied the little prince in confusion. “I have come on a long journey and I haven’t slept at all…”

“In that case,” said the king, "l order you to yawn. I haven't seen anybody yawning for years. Yawns are a curiosity to me. Come, now! Yawn again. It's an order. "

“You are frightening me…I cannot yawn any more... said the little prince, completely embarrassed.

“Hum! Hum!” replied the king. “Then I order you sometimes to yawn and sometimes to…”

The king was annoyed for he thought his authority should be respected. He tolerated no disobedience. But as he was a very kind man, he made his orders reasonable.

But the little prince was puzzled. The planet was tiny. Over what could this king really rule?

“Sire,” he said to the king, "I beg that you will excuse my asking you a question…”

“I order you to put your question to me, the king was quick to reply.

“Sire... over what do you rule?"

“Over everything,” said the king very simply

The king made a sweeping gesture taking in his own planet, the other planets and the stars.

Realizing his rule was not only absolute, but also universal, the little prince marveled(感到惊奇) at such power. As he enjoyed sunsets very much, he plucked up his courage(鼓起勇气) to ask the king a favor.

“I should like to see a sunset. Please do me that kindness. Order the sun to set…”

“You shall have your sunset. I shall command it. But, according to my science of government. I shall wait until conditions are favorable(有利的).”

“Hum Hum!” replied the king, checking his big calendar. “It will. be around…around.. it will be this evening about twenty minutes to eight. And you shall see how well I am obeyed.”

The little prince yawned. He was regretting his lost sunset. And then, too, he was becoming a little bored.

“I have nothing more to do here,” he said to the king. "So I shall set out on my way.

“Do not go,” said the king, who was very proud of having a subject.” I'll make you a minister!”

And when will that be?" asked the little prince

“Minister of what?”

“Minister of…of Justice! (司法部长)

Paragraph 1

“But there’s nobody here to judge!” said the little prince. ……

Paragraph 2

But the little prince, having completed his preparations for departure(离开,启程) had no wish to hurt the feelings of the old king…….
