21、Are you the only child in your family? If so, do you enjoy it or do you want more siblings(兄弟姐妹)?

On May 31, a key meeting of the Communist Party of China unveiled a policy that would allow all couples to have up to three children.

The move is expected to maximize the population's role in driving economic and social growth, since this is a critical time for China to transform the world's most populous country into a powerhouse (强国) with a quality workforce, according to the National Health Commission.

The three-child policy is also expected to prevent the decline in the nation's birthrate and address the challenge of a rapidly aging population, China Daily reported.

China's annual number of newborns has fallen for four years in a row. The country's total birthrate the average number of children born to each woman—stood at 1. 3 in 2020. The number is below the rate of 2.1 that would maintain a stable population, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.

The declining birthrate has also brought a sharp increase in the proportion of the population aged 60 or above, rising from 10. 3 percent to 18. 7 percent in the past decade. An increasingly elderly population will increase the cost of labor and the pressure on the social security net. It also means there will be a lack of young labor force. Therefore, it's not good for economic growth, according to Chen Youhua, a professor at Nanjing University.

In fact, the new birth policy is a step to further relax the family planning policy. The one-child policy was introduced in the 1970s and aimed to control the fast-growing population. Then in 2013, China allowed couples to have a second child if either parent was an only child, and in 2016, all couples were allowed to have two children.

However, not all people have shown their support for this latest policy. Many couples complained about the rising costs of raising a child. A netizen named Qinfeng commented, "High cost of education and both the physical and mental exhaustion stopped me from having more than one child. " Also, many women are reluctant (不情愿的) to give birth because that could mean sacrificing their career prospects, according to Mu Guangzong, a professor at Peking University.

In that case, Mu noted that it is better to implement supporting measures with the three-child policy, such as more preferential (优惠的) policies for couples that would ease their parental burden.

【1】What might NOT be the main cause of the new policy?

A．To increase the population's role.

B．To stop the declining birthrate.

C．To address the challenge of the aging population.

D．To improve the child- care service system.

【2】What can be known from the text?

A．China's annual number of newborns has fallen for decades.

B．In the 1970s, one-child policy was introduced to control the fast-growing population.

C．The government will protect the legal rights of women in employment.

D．Measures will be taken to improve the high-quality education.

【3】Which of the following can replace the underlined word "implement" in the last paragraph?

A．To make use of.

B．To get along with.

C．To carry out.

D．To have a command of.

【4】What is the author's purpose in writing the text?

A．To introduce the new family size policy.

B．To show his love of children healthcare.

C．To share his concerns about birthrate.

D．To emphasize the physical and mental exhaustion.

22、Our house was directly across the street from the clinic entrance of John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. We lived downstairs and rented the upstairs rooms to the patients at the clinic.

One evening as I was fixing supper, there was a knock at the door. I opened it to see a truly awful-looking man. He’s hardly taller than my eight-year-old son. “Good evening. I’ve come to see if you’ve a room. I came for a treatment this morning from the eastern shore, and there’s no bus till morning.” He told me he’d been hunting for a room since noon but with no success. “I guess it’s my face…I know it looks terrible, but my doctor says with a few more treatments…” For a moment I hesitated, but his next words convinced me: “I could sleep in this chair on the porch. My bus leaves early in the morning.”

I told him we would find him a bed. When I had finished the dishes, I talked with him. He told me he fished for a living to support his five children, and his wife, who was hopelessly crippled (残疾的) from a back injury. He didn’t tell it by way of complaint. Next morning, just before he left, as if asking a great favor, he said, “Could I come back and stay the next time?” He added, “Your children made me feel at home.”

On his next trip he arrived a little after seven in the morning. As a gift, he brought a big fish and the largest oysters (牡蛎) I had ever seen. I knew his bus left at 4:00 a.m. and I wondered what time he had to get up in order to do this for us.

In the years he came to stay overnight with us and there was never a time that he did not bring us vegetables from his garden. I know our family always will be grateful to have known him; from him we learned how to accept the bad without complaint when facing the misfortune.

B. Because the man said he would not cause much inconvenience.

23、PITTSBURGH — For most people, snakes seem unpleasant or even threatening. But Howie Choset sees in their delicate movements a way to save lives.

The 37-year-old Carnegie Mellon University professor has spent years developing snake-like robots he hopes will eventually slide through fallen buildings in search of victims trapped after natural disasters or other emergencies.

Dan Kara is president of Robotics Trends, a Northboro, mass-based company that publishes an online industry magazine and runs robotics trade shows. He said there are other snake-like robots being developed, mainly at universities, but didn't know of one that could climb pipes.

The Carnegie Mellon machines are designed to carry cameras and electronic sensors and can be controlled with a joystick (操纵杆). They move smoothly with the help of small electric motors, or servos, commonly used by hobbyists in model airplanes.

Built from lightweight materials, the robots are about the size of a human arm or smaller. They can sense which way is up, but are only as good as their human operators, Choset added.

Sam Stover, a search term manager with the Federal Emergency Management Agency based in Indiana, said snake-type robots would offer greater mobility than equipment currently available, such as cameras attached to extendable roles.

"It just allows us to do something we've not been able to do before," Stover said, "We needed them yesterday."

He said sniffer dogs are still the best search tool for rescue workers, but that they can only be used effectively when workers have access to damaged building.

Stover, among the rescue workers who handled the aftermath (后果) of Hurricane Katrina, said snake robots would have helped rescuers search flooded houses in that disaster.

Choset said the robots may not be ready for use for another five to ten years, depending on funding.

【1】Which institution is responsible for the development of Choset's robots?

A. Robotics Trends.   B. Pittsburgh City Council.

C. Carnegie Mellon University.   D. Federal Emergency Management Agency.

【2】Choset believes that his invention _________.

A. can be attached to an electronic arm

B. can be used by hobbyists in model airplanes

C. can find victims more quickly than a sniffer dog

D. can sense its way as well as its operators

【3】By saying "We needed them yesterday" (paragraph 7), Stover means that snake-like robots ________.

A. could help handle the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina

B. should have been put to use in past rescue work

C. helped rescuers search flooded houses yesterday

D. were in greater need yesterday than today

【4】What is the text mainly about?

A. Snake-like robots used in industries.

B. Snake-like robots made to aid in rescues.

C. The development of snake-like robots.

D. The working principles of snake-like robots.

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。

Jenny, a ten-year-old girl, lived with her poor single mother, Annika, who worked as a cleaner. One day, her mom came home and said her arthritis (关节炎) was getting worse. “It has been getting harder for me to clean the streets the whole day, sweetheart,” her mom said.

“Do you need to go to the doctor, Mom?” Jenny asked. Annika shook her head and simply replied she couldn’t work as much as she used to. “I’ll make less money. We’ll need to save money,” Annika added.

Jenny realized her mother needed her help. She thought about going to work with her mom so they could sweep the same number of streets as before, or even more. Jenny also thought, “Then, my mom will have enough money to go to the doctor.” She told Annika her idea. But Annika disagreed and explained, “You should study hard at school, Jenny.” Jenny agreed and continued with school.

A few days later, however, Annika realized she couldn’t deal with her work on her own and allowed Jenny to help her after school every day. Jenny nodded right away and helped her mom sweep streets.

To pass the time, Jenny would sing the songs of her favorite singer while sweeping. Jenny loved the singer, but didn’t know a lot about her. Actually, the singer was a very kind person. If she knew someone needed help, she’d give a helping hand.

One afternoon, some of Jenny’s classmates saw her sweeping the street. They began making fun of her, with words like “Your mother is a cleaner, and you’re a cleaner, too!” Jenny paid no attention to them, and continued to sing her favorite song while sweeping.

Her classmates then took photos and videos of Jenny and posted them online. “Our classmate is a street sweeper!” they wrote in their post. While they expected others to laugh at Jenny, they were surprised at what happened afterwards.

注意：

1．续写词数应为150左右；
