21、Why does our body require warm covers but not our face when it’s cold? The following are the reasons.

Firstly, don’t forget that your head does have some insulation (隔热). 【1】

Secondly, the air temperature near your head won’t be as cold as the room, because the microclimate around your head will be warmed by heat lost from your head and by your exhaled (呼出) breath. 【2】

Then there is physiology. Your sensation of thermal (热的) comfort is primarily driven by skin temperature. This depends on blood flow to the skin. In a cool environment, the hands and feet reduce their blood flow to very low levels. 【3】 So, as the temperature of the rest of the skin falls, that of the head remains higher. This is why you can lose plenty of heat via your head in the cold and should wear a hat.

There are also differences in the impact of different body regions on the overall sensation of cold and thermal comfort. The temperature of the hands and feet dominate your overall perception of how cold you are. 【4】 In a cooling environment, the temperature of the lower back and chest determines the loss of thermal comfort, and during mild exposure to cold, local warming of the chest, rather than the face, produces a strong sensation of comfort.

【5】 So, it is a good idea to keep the body warm in bed, then you can leave the head above the covers. Your nose may get cold, but it won’t stop you sleeping, and it is good to breathe fresh air!

A．Remember to put a hat on.

B．It often has hair and is insulated by it.

C．The latter is warmed in the lungs to about 33℃.

D．There is nothing worse than going out in the cold with wet hair.

E．This is why you can’t fall asleep until your feet warm up in bed.

F．In contrast, the blood flow to the head doesn’t decrease as much.

G．Also, remember that the face is adapted to exposing to the elements.

22、   When a precious baby cow ended up in this family after losing its mom, little Kinley Gray took her in with open arms.

“They are just so cute. My heart cannot even contain in all of that love,” Lacey Gray, Kinley’s mom said.

Lacey is a professional photographer from Michigan City, Mississippi. She had reached out to her husband’s uncle, who owns cows, to see if she could borrow a calf for a photo shoot she was hoping to do.

Initially, her husband’s uncle thought she could just borrow a calf without the mom. She hadn’t thought about that aspect, but understood, and moved on.

But the next morning she got a phone call from him and he was so serious. He said, “Do you really want a calf? The mama fell and she is not going to get up. She will die from this. I'm calling to see if you want this baby, but you have to feed it several times a day.

Without hesitation, Lacey agreed, not having a clue about what she was getting herself into with raising a cow, let alone a 3-day-old calf that had just lost her mom.

“We brought her inside the first night, she slept in the laundry room,” said Lacey. “But Kinley ran in there and was kissing all over her. Kinley read her books and when it was time to walk her, Kinley would walk her all over the yard. Kinley wants to feed her all by herself. It’s really sweet.

Now, just two weeks later, the precious pair is completely inseparable.

“I was almost in tears, shooting the two of them together,” Lacey said. “She just has a connection with her. She just knows that’s her family. This is just so crazy and so sweet. I just hope I can watch them grow all through Kinley’s childhood.”

【1】Why did Lacey want to borrow a bay cow?

A.To learn how to raise cows. B.To take special photos.

C.To make it work for her family. D.To raise cows for making a living.

【2】What did Lacey feel the moment she agreed to take the calf home?

A.She was a little hesitant when making the decision.

B.She knew exactly what would happen next.

C.She was super excited about having a calf.

D.She was firm though not sure how to raise it.

【3】What can we infer from the passage?

A.Kinley likes the baby cow very much.

B.Kinley and the baby cow are the same age.

C.The baby co will be sent back after shooting.

D.Kinley will look after the baby cow all the time.

【4】What’s the main idea of the passage?

A.A wonderful photo attracts people’s eyes.

B.A baby cow lost her mother after she was born.

C.A little girl befriends a baby cow who lost its mom.

D.Man can have a good relationship with animals.

23、   Known for its complicated, seemingly wavelike sandstone walls and the rays of sunlight that shine into them, Arizona's Antelope Canyon（羚羊峡谷）is an everlasting attraction for tourists. It's a slot canyon, meaning it formed from water carving it out over millions of years. It sits about 3, 700 feet above sea level and takes its name from the antelope that once lived in it.

The canyon forms part of Lake Powell Navajo Tribal Park in the Navajo Nation. The Navajo Nation limits visits to either the Upper or Lower Antelope Canyon to two hours and requires all visitors to be led by authorized guides. If you're planning a trip and need help deciding which area to visit, keep these recommendations in mind.

•When: Tours are available twice a day during the week year-round, though exact times vary by season；tours are not available on weekends or major holidays.

•Cost: Tour companies 5 fees vary, but tickets, including entrance to the park, generally start at around $ 60 for 90-minute tours of Upper Antelope Canyon. Tours of Lower Antelope Canyon tend to be around an hour and generally cost around $ 40 per adult and $ 20 for children.

• Must-know tip: Most of Arizona does not follow daylight saving time, though the Navajo Nation, where Antelope Canyon is located, does. Check with your tour operator to confirm the precise time of your tour.

Antelope Canyon hosts tons of visitors and, in order to protect the canyon walls from damage, no bags of any kind are permitted in either the Upper or Lower section. Also keep in mind that while most tour companies welcome small children, not all of them will.

【1】What makes Antelope Canyon attractive?

A.Its remarkable height.

B.The origin of its name.

C.Its unique natural feature.

D.he process of its formation.

【2】How much may a couple pay for a one-hour tour in Lower Antelope Canyon?

24、Imagine climbing a mountain and getting half way up and saying to yourself, “You know what, I’m going to climb back down and finish this later.”

【1】 We have projects that sit waiting to be completed. Some people start college but never graduate. We have books that we never finish reading. 【2】 Many people are great at beginning things but can’t seem to finish strong.

Not finishing what we started has been a repeated problem for us. We have to face it. 【3】 Whenever we delay, or put to the side, the things that will help us accomplish our goals, we stop developing our potential.

Not finishing not only causes us to stop making progress but also we find it harder whenever we do decide to start again. Consider this: every time I begin a new exercise program my muscles are sore (疼) for a few days. After a few weeks of routine, the muscles get accustomed to the program and grow stronger. Thus, no more sore muscles. Well, when I take some time off I fear starting again. 【4】

Strong finishers are able to focus on getting the best result from anything that they start. So how do we know that we are a strong finisher? Along with the huge feeling of accomplishment, other people will begin to notice the change. 【5】 They will have no choice but to recognize our strong finishing ability. We will be rewarded with more trust from them.

A．The list goes on and on.

B．We should have the confidence.

C．Why don’t we have the interest any more?

D．Sounds silly, but that is what we do all of the time.

E．I know that my muscles are going to be sore again.

F．They will see we are able to climb and conquer the mountain.

G．Not being a strong finisher can limit our ability to conquer our goals.

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。

Another term had started and I had to attend the first lecture of the new course. The lecturer told us to make groups of two students for a project. I looked to the right and there was my classmate Jack sitting there. And I decided myself that he would be my group member. On the left side, there was an older woman who was from an open university. We talked about the project and decided to make a group of three. During the break, she told me that, last year, she didn’t manage to pass the course, so she would try again.

Later we got an email from our lecturer saying it was not allowed to make groups of three students. The old lady then tried to find some groups, but failed. I knew she wouldn’t find other groups, so I told her that we could do the project together. I had to say good bye to Jack.

After many meetings, we finished the project. In the last meeting, I told her I had difficulty in finding a summer job. I was living in a small town and there weren’t many jobs available and neither had I any previous experience. She advised me to keep doing it, as one would finally answer someday. She then thanked me for helping her and before leaving she said “see you”.

Two weeks later, I got an email from a company saying they had received my job application and decided to call me for a job interview. I appeared for the interview and answered the questions interviewers raised. In the end, they asked me where I had learned about the open job position. In fact, I had no idea so I told them I didn’t remember well. They called me three days later and told me I could start in May. That would be the first time I would be working as a software engineer and I couldn’t describe what I felt like.
