21、 I have dreamed of taking a trip to Hawaii since I graduated, but the best thing always needs waiting. I took a trip with my friends to Haleakala National Park, which lies in Hawaii.
When we arrived at Haleakala National Park, we were advised to watch the early morning sunrise. I was lost in the sightseeing that afternoon, so I could hardly wait to meet the sunrise. In the next morning, we all jumped out of the bed very early at 3 o’clock and walked to the rocks by the seaside. In the first half an hour, we imagined how wonderful it would be when the first light came out through the thick clouds and how soft it would be when the light touched our skin, so we waited and waited. However, another half an hour later, I gradually lost my patience since there was nothing but the chilly darkness, and I felt that I was frozen to death. But my friends were still extremely cheerful.
Nearly another one hour later, “Amazing!”, a word yelled out from Judy and we all shouted to welcome the light orange greatness, which was really unbelievable. Until today, I dare say that it is the most impressive (印象深刻的) sunrise in my life. However, waiting in the morning darkness is also the one I cannot wipe out forever.
Waiting sometimes is really a hard thing for most of us as it needs patience and strong-willed determination, but what about the result after that? It might turn out to be pleasant, unbelievable and satisfactory. So, it is really worthwhile to wait for the best.
【1】When did they see the first light of the sunrise?
A.About 3 o’clock. B.About 4 o’clock.
C.Nearly 5 o’clock. D.Nearly 6 o’clock.
【2】What can we learn from the passage?
A.My classmates and I took a trip to Hawaii.
B.Hawaii is a good place to enjoy the sunset.
C.I took a trip to Hawaii before I graduated.
D.Sometimes, it is worthwhile to wait for the best.
【3】What’s the meaning of the underlined word in Paragraph 2?
A.Total. B.Terrible.
C.Cold. D.Interesting.
22、Still seeking a destination for your weekend break? There are some places which are probably a mere wall away from your college.
King’s Art Centre
A day at the Centre could mean a visit to an exhibition of the work of one of the most interesting contemporary artists on show anywhere. This weekend sees the opening of an exhibition of four local artists.
You could attend a class teaching you how to ‘learn from the masters’ or get more creative with paint–free of charge.
The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee.
The Botanic Garden
The Garden has over 8,000 plant species; it holds the research and teaching collection of living plants for Cambridge University.
The multi-branched Torch Aloe here is impressive. The African plant produces red flowers above blue-green leaves, and is not one to miss.
Get to the display house to see Dionaea muscipula, a plant more commonly known as the Venus Flytrap that feeds on insects and other small animals.
The Garden is also a place for wildlife-enthusiasts. Look for grass snakes in the lake. A snake called ‘Hissing Sid’ is regularly seen lying in the heat of the warm sun.
Byron’s Pool
Many stories surround Lord Byron’s time as a student of Cambridge University. Arriving in 1805, he wrote a letter complaining that it was a place of “mess and drunkenness”. However, it seems as though Byron did manage to pass the time pleasantly enough. I’m not just talking about the pet bear he kept in his rooms. He spent a great deal of time walking in the village.
It is also said that on occasion Byron swam naked by moonlight in the lake, which is now known as Byron’s Pool. A couple of miles past Grantchester in the south Cambridgeshire countryside, the pool is surrounded by the fields. The cries of invisible birds make the trip a lovely experience and on the way home you can drop into the village for afternoon tea. If you don’t trust me, then perhaps you’ll take it from Virginia Woolf, a famous writer,—over a century after Byron, she reportedly took a trip to swim in the same pool.
【1】The main idea of the passage is ________.
A. interesting stories of Lord Byron
B. an approach to becoming creative in art
C. the colorful life in the countryside
D. some places for weekend break
【2】If you are a wildlife enthusiast, you’d better go to ________.
A. Byron’s Pool B. the Botanic Garden
C. King’s Art Centre D. Cambridgeshire
【3】According to the passage, the following statements are wrong except ________.
A. there is a small charge for attending the masters’ class
B. Byron liked swimming naked in the lake
C. Byron seemed to like keeping pet bears
D. Hissing Sid and Flytrap are impressive animals
【4】The author’s purpose in mentioning Virginia Woolf is to show ________.
A. she was a famous writer
B. she was keen on swimming
C. she was Byron’s admirer
D. Byron’s Pool is a pleasant place
23、When we donate(捐献) blood, a small amount is usually taken in advance for at least ABO and Rh systems typing. If you are O+, the O is your ABO type and the + is your Rh type. It is possible to be A, B, AB, or O as well as Rh + or Rh-.
The ABO system was discovered by Karl Landsteiner in the early 1900s. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for his achievements. There are four basic types of blood in the ABO system: A, B, AB and O. Everybody is born with one of these four types of blood. We get blood type, just like hair color and height from parents. Because of the substances(物质) contained in each type, the four groups must be transfused carefully, If two different blood types are mixed together, it may put a person into an extremely dangerous situation. Basically, A and B cannot be mixed. A and B cannot receive AB, but AB may receive A or B. In an emergency, type O blood can be given because it is most likely to be accepted by all blood types, so it is often called the universal donor. However, there is still a risk. For the opposite reason, AB is sometimes called the universal receiver. However, because there can be so many reactions in the blood bank of the hospital.
There is a relationship between your blood type and your nationality. Among the Europeans, about 45 percent have type O while 42 percent have type A. The least common is type AB. Other races have different percentage. For example, some American Indian groups have nearly 100 percent type O out of 100 donors in the world.
【1】Which of the following shown the correct relationships in blood transfusions?
【2】The underlined word “transfuse” most probably means ________.
A. to put the blood into a container
B. to move the blood from one place to another
C. to put the blood of one person into the body of another
D. to give power to another person
【3】The writer suggests that the third most common blood type among the Europeans is ______.
A. B B. A C. AB D. O
【1】The text mainly tells us ______.
A. about the basic types of human blood
B. what kind of blood is the most common
C. about Karl Landsteiner who won the Nobel Prize
D. the relationship between blood type and nationality
24、In China, in order to ease the pressure on parents’ wallets, education is free until children reach the age of about 15. So why is it that more than half of a typical family’s spending goes on education? The answer is cramming classes: a financial burden so great that it is often said to discourage couples from having children at all. Now officials are doing their part. It appears to relieve the pressure on people’s wallets.
But parents are not sure whether it will work. As many of them see it, cramming is not optional. Exams for entry to senior high schools are fiercely competitive. Then comes the dreaded Gaokao: the university-entrance exam on which a child’s future depends. No wonder the industry’s growth has been rapid. One firm, Zuoyebang (“help with homework”) says it offers live-streaming classes to more than 170m active users each month.
But officials are worried about its social impact. The birth rate is the lowest in decades and China is ageing fast. They also say that school children are overstressed. Urban pupils attend cramming classes for more than 10 hours a week, according to Deloitte, an accountancy firm.
While as the People’s Daily, an official newspaper, reported this month, the market for such services is in “endless chaos”. It listed problems ranging from misleading advertising to high prices and the use of unqualified teachers.
Government’s new regulations of clamping down on cram schools sent shivers through the industry. New Oriental, one of China’s biggest cramming companies, saw its share price on the New York Stock Exchange drop below $8, from a high of more than $19 in February. On June 9th the education ministry said a new government department would be set up to oversee such businesses, including both online courses and lessons in the classroom. There is also a widespread speculation, including in state media, that the new rules will impose limits on when firms can offer classes. They may, for example, prohibit classes after a certain time in the evening, during the summer holidays or at weekends.
Some analysts think the government may have another motive. Many of the companies belong to China’s tech giants, including Alibaba and Tencent, which have already attracted government’s attention for dominating markets and expanding into finance and other areas. Targeting the cramming business could be another way of breaking their wings. Parents wonder whether they will benefit. Some are concerned that the new rules will leave them with no choice but to use private tutors, which could prove even more costly.
【1】Why do cramming schools enjoy great popularity among Chinese students?
A.The exams are so demanding that they have no choice.
B.The live-streaming classes offered are really appealing.
C.Entering senior high schools makes them less competitive.
D.Government officials are worried about their performance.
【2】What is NOT a problem put forward by the People’s Daily with the cram school market?
A.High fees.
B.Experienced tutors.
C.Improper advertising.
D.Chaotic management.
【3】What can we infer about the parents’ attitude towards the new regulations?
A.Supportive.
B.Indifferent.
C.Skeptical.
D.Critical.
【4】What is the main idea of this passage?
A.China’s tech giants control the market.
B.China says no to the cramming business.
C.Gaokao imposes too much burden to students.
D.New Oriental is the biggest cramming company.
