21、Porridge—a perfect breakfast?

Porridge (粥). It doesn’t have a very tasty name, does it? I’m here to try and tell you that porridge isn’t boring and tasteless, that it can be a delicious, easy to cook and very healthy way to start the day.

If you’ve never eaten it (although you probably have!), porridge is a kind of food for breakfast. It is usually a kind of grain (谷物) with either milk or water, and often warmed up. It is very healthy, so it’s a very good choice for people who are ill, and it gives long-lasting energy (能量) for the day.

Porridge preparation is up to what you choose to use. If I’m cooking for myself, I put a very big handful of oats (燕麦) in a pan, add a little bit of water and about 200 ml of milk, and let it boil. It takes about five minutes to cook. Once it’s cooked, the fun part is putting more things in for the flavours (味道). Porridge alone doesn’t have a very strong flavour. Although some people think this makes porridge boring, I think this is what makes porridge exciting! It is like a piece of white paper—you can put in almost anything you want in the porridge. Dried fruits and nuts are very healthy choices and can give you energy for the day. But if you don’t like these, then chocolate is also very delicious choice. (Just don’t add too much!)

One of the best things about porridge? You can make it almost anywhere in the world. You can usually buy big bags of oats, then add other things to make your porridge interesting—whatever is cheap and easy to find, wherever you are. Porridge? Hopefully, it sounds a lot tastier now!

【1】What can we learn about porridge?

A．It is hard to cook porridge.

B．It gives people a lot of energy.

C．It is a perfect breakfast in China.

D．It is not a good choice for sick people.

【2】What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?

D．Why porridge is a perfect breakfast.

A．encourage people to buy more porridge

B．introduce different kinds of breakfast

C．tell people porridge can be delicious

D．teach people how to cook porridge

22、7-year-old Drew Bausman is from Sacramento, US. He has a dream (梦想) of being a deliveryman (快递员). He sees deliverymen deliver packages (包裹) to people every day and thinks that their work makes people happy. His favourite colour is brown because deliverymen’s uniform (制服) is in the colour brown.

So, Drew’s mum bought him a small uniform online and got him a mini truck (迷你卡车). Drew loved them so much. He started wanting to deliver packages to his friends. Luckily, a delivery store helped him. The deliverymen there welcomed the boy to work as a deliveryman for one day.

On the day, Drew dressed up like a deliveryman. He was serious and got right to work. He put many boxes on his mini truck. Each box had a gift for his friends. Then a deliveryman drove him to his school. The delivery store also sent two trucks and ten deliverymen to let the children learn about the trucks and ask questions about what it’s like to be a deliveryman. It was truly a big day for Drew.

Drew’s family was thankful for the deliverymen. Their help was more than just making Drew’s dream come true. There was something more for Drew as he is a child with Down syndrome (唐氏综合症). His story tells us that life sometimes is not easy for us, but love makes the world much better.

23、There is a fun fact. Each year, people in all 28 European Union (EU) member countries are asked to change their clocks twice. They move forward by one hour (12 p.m. becomes 1 p.m.) on the last Sunday of March and back by one hour (1 p.m. goes back to 12 p.m.) on the last Sunday in October. This is called “daylight saving time (DST, 夏/冬令时)”.

But in 2019, they will no longer need to do so. On Sept 14, 2018, the EU announced that it will stop practicing DST in October 2019, USA Today reported. The change comes following an online survey conducted in EU countries. Eighty-four percent of the 4.5 million Europeans who took the survey said they oppose (反对) seasonal clock changes.

DST was first introduced in Germany during the World Wars and became law across the continent (大陆) in 1996. It helps people make better use of longer summer days and save energy.

For example, with DST, people get up and go to bed an hour earlier during the summer. By having an extra hour of sunlight, people can save electricity, since they don’t need to turn their lights on.

However, after over 20 years of DST, people believe that the practice is out of date, especially since we now have energy-saving technology like LED light. “We are clearly headed toward smart cities, smart buildings and smart solutions which will bring much more savings than a change of the clock,” European Commission Vice-President Maros Sefcovic told Deutsche Welle.

Others have pointed out that clock changing can lead to imbalance (失衡) in our bodies’ internal (体内的) clocks and cause long-term health problems, Reuters noted.

【1】“Daylight saving time” lasts about ________ a year.

A．five months

B．six months

C．seven months

D．eight months

【2】Where did “daylight saving time” begin?

A．In France.

B．In Germany.

C．In the US.

D．In the UK.

【3】Why was “daylight saving time” used in Europe?

A．Because it helped people save energy.

B．Because it was fashionable and modern.

C．Because people wanted to enjoy longer nights.

D．Because people opposed seasonal clock changes.

【4】What do the last three paragraphs talk about?

A．What we can use to save energy.

B．Why changing clocks is no longer needed.

C．What changes new technology can bring.

D．Why clock changing can harm our health.
