21、The Legend (传说) of Kung Fu

According to a legend, in the fifth century, an Indian master taught some monks at the Shaolin Temple a series of exercises, or forms, inspired by the movement of animals. These forms became the basis of the style of fighting known as Kung Fu. Over 16 centuries, the monks have used Kung Fu for self-defense and in war. With it, they have won many battles against their enemies.

In Dengfeng today, ten kilometers from the Shaolin Temple, there are over 60 martial arts (武术) schools with more than 50,000 students. Students come to the schools for a variety of reasons. Some hope to become movie stars. Others come to learn skills that will ensure good jobs in the military or police force. A few are sent by their parents to learn self-control and hard work.

Master Hu Zhengsheng teaches at a small school in Dengfeng. Recently, he was offered an important role in a Kung Fu movie. It could have been good publicity for his school. However, he did not accept. He doesn't agree with how Kung Fu is often shown in movies. He feels they show too much violence.

Unlike many large schools, which teach acrobatics (特技) and kickboxing, Hu teaches his students traditional Kung Fu forms. He teaches them the way his master — a Shaolin legend taught him. But attracting new students to this style of Kung Fu has become a problem. Hu is afraid his art will soon die out. He has to remind his students that Kung Fu was designed for fighting, not to entertain.

Hu’s students have little. They sleep in unheated rooms and train outside no matter what the temperature. They hit trees with their bare hands and take turns sitting on each other’s shoulders to build leg strength. Why such hardship? To master Kung Fu, they must learn respect, and how to “eat bitterness”, a Mandarin (普通话) expression meaning “to endure suffering”. The life of a Shaolin master, Hu teaches, is not easy or attractive.

Master Hu is in a difficult position. For old traditions to survive, the young must learn. Gradually, he had begun offering a few courses in kickboxing and the acrobatic Kung Fu forms, hoping to attract new students. Then, maybe, he’ll be able to convince them to learn Shaolin Kung Fu the traditional way.

【1】What is true about Kung Fu?

A.It’s over 17 centuries old.

B.It was traditionally used for fighting.

C.It was introduced to China from Thailand.

D.It was originally designed to entertain people.

【2】What is the purpose of the third paragraph?

A.To show why Hu teaches acrobatics and kickboxing.

B.To convince people that they can be rich and famous.

C.To explain the challenges traditional Kung Fu schools face.

D.To show how Hu’s ideas about Kung Fu are different from other teachers.

【3】In the fifth paragraph, the underlined words “endure suffering” mean _________.

A.stop the suffering B.make someone suffer

C.survive the suffering D.make the suffering worse

【4】Why does the passage mention Hu Zhengsheng?

A.He is a Kung Fu student learning kickboxing.

B.He is a Kung Fu master preserving old traditions.

C.He is the man who introduced Kung Fu to China.

D.He is a famous actor in an exciting Kung Fu movie.

22、Amanda Gorman, a 22-year-old poet, recited her poem The Hill We Climb at the recent Presidential Inauguration (就职) Ceremony. Her words and performance were wonderful and were admired across the world. But what is even more wonderful is the story of how Amanda arrived at this moment and the lessons she offers other kids around the world.

Amanda was raised by a single mother, Joan Wicks, in Los Angeles. There was very limited television watching in their house. Encouraged by her mother, who was a teacher, Amanda fell in love with reading and writing. She gained confidence in these areas. Her passion for poetry started when she was about 8 years old.

But despite her interests and talents, she had some obstacles. Amanda has a listening processing disorder and is very sensitive to sound. She also had a speech disorder during childhood. This caused her to participate in speech treatment which helped her to turn her obstacles into gifts and strengths. As she told The Harvard Gazette in 2018, “I always saw it as a strength because since I was experiencing these obstacles in terms of my listening and speech skills, I became really good at reading and writing.”

Amanda started to dream of becoming president when she was in 6th grade. As Amanda became more confident, she became more driven to transform the world for good. She went on to earn a degree at Harvard University. And then, Amanda became the world’s first Youth Poet Laureate (获奖者) in history!

While Amanda looked calm, cool, and collected at the inauguration, she admits she is always nervous, like many of us, about public speaking. To ease this, she developed a spell that she recites to give herself confidence in moments of doubt, “I am the daughter of black writers. We are descendants (子孙) of freedom fighters who broke through chains and changed the world.”

【1】What do we know about Amanda Gorman?

A．She took to reading and writing thanks to her teacher.

B．She published her first poem at the age of 8.

C．She read a poem at a presidential inauguration.

D．She became the first Youth Poet Laureate at high school.

【2】What does the underlined word “obstacles” mean in paragraph 3?

A．Worries .

B．Changes.

C．Strengths.

D．Disabilities.

【3】How did Amanda overcome her nervousness about public speech?

A．By seeking support from some black writers.

B．By practicing the speech context repeatedly.

C．By reciting a special sentence to herself.

D．By talking to freedom fighters before the speech.

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

A．To share a funny story.

B．To educate disabled kids.

C．To record a wonderful moment.

D．To encourage more children.

23、Visitors worry that London is an expensive city but there really are so many free things to do here. The following ideas should get you started.

All of London's major museums are free, but most offer some special exhibitions for a fee. My favorite is the Museum of London where you can learn the history of London from Roman times to today. And I love the Geffrye Museum which shows English domestic interiors（内务） and helps bring to life what it was really like to live in London.

I regularly hear people tell me the Queen Mary's Rose Gardens in Regent's Park is their favorite spot in London, and who am I to argue? I would also recommend St. James's Park as it offers one of the best views of Buckingham Palace. Hyde Park is enormous（巨大的） and Kensington Gardens nearby includes the ever popular Diana Memorial Playground and the Peter Pan Statue.

No visit to London is complete without seeing this military tradition. The Queen's Guard in London changes in the Forecourt inside the gates of Buckingham Palace at 11.30am every day in the summer and every other day in the winter. Get there early and view the spectacle（壮观的场面） from outside the front gates.

Trafalgar Square is one of Britain's greatest visitor attractions and was designed by John Nash in the 1820s and constructed in the 1830s. This iconic square has many sights to see including Nelson's Column and the National Gallery. It is both a tourist attraction and the main focus for political demonstrations. Every December, Norway donates a marvelous（非凡的） Christmas tree, to thank Britain for liberation from the Nazis.

【1】Where can visitors find the Peter Pan Statue?

A. in Regent's Park.    B. in St. James's Park.

C. in Hyde Park.     D. in Kensington Gardens.

【2】Which of the following descriptions is True?

A. In the Geffrye Museum visitors can learn the history of London from Roman times to today.

B. The Queen Mary's Rose Gardens is in Buckingham Palace.

C. There is the Queen's Guard change inside the gates of Buckingham Palace at 11.30 am every day all year around.

D. Trafalgar Square is both a tourist attraction and a place for political demonstrations.

A. compare some free places in London

B. advertise some free places in London

C. recommend some free places in London

D. expose some free places in London

24、   The production of coffee beans is a huge, profitable business, but, unfortunately, full-sun production is taking over the industry and bringing about a lot of damage. The change in how coffee is grown from shade-grown production to full-sun production endangers the very existence of, certain animals and birds, and even disturbs the world’s ecological balance.

On a local level, the damage of the forest required by full-sun fields affects the area’s birds and animals. The shade of the forest trees provides a home for birds and other species that depend on the trees’ flowers and fruits. Full-sun coffee growers destroy this forest home. As a result, many special are quickly dying out.

On a more global level, the destruction of the rainforest for full-sun coffee fields also threatens human life. Medical research often makes use of the forests' plant and animal life, and the destruction of such species could prevent researchers from finding cures for certain diseases. In addition, new coffee-growing techniques are poisoning the water locally, and eventually the world's groundwater.

Both locally and globally, the continued spread of full-sun coffee plantations could mean the destruction of the rainforest ecology. The loss of shade trees is already causing a slight change in the world's climate, and studies show that loss of oxygen-giving trees also leads to air pollution and global warming. Moreover, the new growing techniques are contributing to acidic soil conditions.

It is obvious that the way much coffee is grown affects many aspects many aspects of life, from the local environment to the global ecology. But consumers do have a choice. They can purchase shade-grown coffee whenever possible, although at a higher cost. The future health of the planet and mankind is surely worth more than an inexpensive cup of coffee.

【1】What can we learn about full-sun coffee production from Paragraph 4?

A.It leads to air pollution and global warming.

B.It limits the spread of new growing techniques.

C.It slows down the loss of shade trees.

D.It improves local soil conditions.

【2】The purpose of the text is to _________.

C.persuade D.instruct

【3】Where does this text probably come from?

A.An engineering textbook.

B.A medical journal.

C.An agricultural magazine.

D.A tourist guide.
