21、Chokwe Selassie, aged 13, is working hard to help drivers avoid potholes(坑洼). The eighth-grader was inspired to kick off his creation on a recent morning, when his mother was driving him to school. Their car was damaged as it went over a huge pothole in the middle of the street in their hometown of Jackson, Mississippi. He decided to do something about the pothole problem in his city.

Chokwe developed the app with his friends Rodriguez Ratliff and Emmanuel Brooks. When the app detects a pothole, it is highlighted in red. And if you get close to the pothole, your phone will warn you with a beep. Drivers can also use the app to report any potholes and look for other routes they can take to avoid roads that have them.

The app relies on current available information about the streets of Jackson, already stored in a database of the city’s 311 call system. Through the call system, citizens dial 3-1-1 to report non-emergency problems which include potholes. Chokwe and his friends determined that focusing on the 10 busiest streets in Jackson would give them a large enough sample size to test the prototype.

While developing the app, the boys took part in a Minority Male Makers Program sponsored by Verizon and held at Jackson State University. They learned 3D printing and design, and how to create apps. Through the program Chokwe and his friends received encouragement and guidance.

Although the app isn’t yet available for sale, Chokwe is already looking for ways to improve the app. He hopes to add more to it until it spreads all over the country.

【1】Why is the car damage mentioned in the first paragraph?

A. To scold the road builders.

B. To introduce their bad luck.

C. To tell the inspiration for the app.

D. To warn the danger of careless driving.

【2】What is the app used to do?

A. Warn drivers about potholes.

B. Help drivers obey traffic rules.

C. Stop drivers using mobile phones.

D. Tell drivers to avoid red lights.

【3】How does the app work through the 311 call system?

A. By replying to citizens’ calls.

B. By broadcasting traffic accidents.

C. By settling non- emergency problems.

D. By using its information about potholes.

【4】Which can be Chokwe’s future target?

A. Encouraging more kids to create apps.

B. Taking part in more learning programs.

C. Making the app available for sale online.

D. Making the app include streets nationwide.

22、Jose Alberto Gutierrez's life would never be the same again after finding a copy of Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy in the garbage 20 years ago. It happened while he was driving his garbage truck through wealthier neighborhoods at night and seeing deserted books. It sparked his desire to start rescuing books from the garbage. He took home between 50 and 60 books every morning after his nine-hour shift. Eventually, he turned his book collection into a community library.

Colombia’s capital city of Bogota has 13 million residents and 19 public libraries. However, these libraries tend to be far away from where rural and poorer communities live. The option of buying new books is non-existent for families struggling to make ends meet. Having access to a library of books and being taken away to another world while immersed in a book is a luxury for the kids who visit Gutierrez's library.

Gutierrez grew up poor, and his family could not afford to educate him beyond primary school. Nevertheless, his mother was a keen reader and read stories to him every night. Her love for books left a deep impression on Gutierrez, who never let a lack of formal education stop him from reading classics by the likes of Victor Hugo, Mario Vargas Llosa and Gabriel Garcia Marquez.

Today, his community library, called “The Strength of Words“, occupies most of his home and is piled from floor to ceiling with fiction and non-fiction titles. Everything from school textbooks to story books can be found in his collection of more than 20,000 books!

The Strength of Words library opens every weekend. It is not just school-going children who are enjoying the benefits of   The Strength of Words library. Adults are also welcome to expand their horizons and develop new skills to build a better life for themselves.

Despite having done so much for his community, Gutierrez is not yet content to call it a day. He continues to search through bins for reading material and has even travelled to book fairs in Mexico and Chile to sell his idea of building library from unwanted books.

【1】What inspired Gutierrez to build the community library?

A．The dilemma he faced on the night shift.

B．The hobby he has started since childhood.

C．Famous novelists he liked very much.

D．Abandoned books he came across at work.

【2】What can we learn about Gutierrez's mother?

A．She was born into a poor family.

B．She bought Gutierrez many books.

C．She influenced Gutierrez greatly.

D．She enjoyed reading Hugo’s works.

【3】What does the underlined phrase “call it a day” in the last paragraph mean?

A．Take the time.

B．Stop the work.

C．Make a change.

D．Receive a reward.

【4】What does Gutierrez's story tell us?

A．A book holds a house of gold.

B．Constant dropping wears the stone.

C．Good things come to those who wait.

D．One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.

24、   Why are some countries 30 minutes off the Global Time Zone Grid? It is an interesting question. To understand the answer, we have to understand where time zones came from in the first place.

Until the mid-19th century, major cities would set their local time by when the sun was at its highest point in that particular city.【1】For example, when it was 12 p.m. in New York City, it was 12:23 p. m. in Boston. With the development of rapid transport, local mean time made things increasingly more difficult because trains arriving from a certain city would be arriving at each stop's local time.【2】

So began the creation of an international standard of time. At last 27 countries reached an agreement that the world would be divided into 24 time zones based on the 24 hours in each day. Each of the time zones would be defined by a meridian (子午线).【3】It later became known as Coordinated Universal Time (协调世界时).

So why are some cities 30 or 45 minutes off?【4】For example, in New Delhi, India, they found themselves halfway between two meridians, and therefore decided to be 30 minutes between each, as opposed to adopting one time or the other.

【5】But when it comes to figuring out what time it actually is, a little humor never hurts. Posted in the comments on the BBC article by David Marshall of London, England: “I live in my wife's time zone, which is 10 minutes later than everyone else's.”

A．Time zones can be confusing.

B．It was called local mean time.

C．No doubt people were confused.

D．In this way time zones came into being.

E．That is because those cities are nearly the same.

F．All of the times were set according to Greenwich Mean Time.

G．That has largely to do with the politics in each of those places.
