21、Nick Vujicic was born with no arms or legs, but the brave 32-year-old man, plays football and golf, swims, and surfs. Nick has a small foot on his left side, which helps him balance and enables him to kick. He uses his one foot to type, write with a pen and pick things up between his toes.

“I call it my chicken drumstick（鸡腿）,” joked Nick, “I'd be lost without it. When I get in the water I float because 80 per cent of my body is lungs and my drumstick acts as a propeller.”

When Nick was born his father was so shocked he left the hospital room to vomit. His distraught mother couldn't bring herself to hold him until he was four months old.

“It was so hard for them, but right from the start they did their best to make me independent. My dad put me in the water at 18 months and gave me the courage to learn how to swim. ” said Nick.

Throughout his childhood Nick dealt with the typical challenges. At the age of seven, Nick tried out some specially designed electronic arms and legs, in hope that he would be more like the other kids. During the short trial period of the electronic arms and legs, Nick realized that even with them, he was still unlike his peers at school, and they turned out to be much too heavy for Nick to operate, affecting his flexibility quite significantly.

“When I was 13 I read a newspaper article about a disabled man who had managed to achieve great things and help others,” said Nick, “I realized why God had made us like this － to give hope to others. It was so inspirational to me that I decided to use my life to encourage others and decided to be thankful for what I do have, not get angry about what I don't.”

“I tell people to keep on getting up when they fall and to always love themselves,” he said. “If I can encourage just one person then my job in this life is done.” By now, he has visited 35 different countries, touring the world as a motivational speaker.

【1】 What makes it possible for Nick to swim in the water?

D. Nick learned to be independent at a young age.

22、From the age of 6, Samirah Horton was bullied (欺凌) by her classmates for the things that made her different — her size and her sharp voice. Rather than giving up, Horton decided to pick up a microphone and make sure other children knew they weren’t alone. “I didn’t want other kids to go through that experience,” says Horton, “especially at a very young age.” Now, alongside attending eighth grade classes, she’s also building an anti-bullying platform to reach students across the country.

For as long as Horton remembers, she's felt a special connection to music. She remembers her mother always having the radio on, and her father teaching her how to deejay (主持) . Music gives her unlimited power to do the duty. “It’s music that fuels my mission, allowing me to spread this important message,”she says. Now as the Kid DJ for her hometown team, you can hear anything from the hip-hop classics to songs of her own, including the anti-bullying song “No You Won’t Bully Me”.

Her message has reached beyond the DJ set. At 8. Horton turned one of her songs into a 26-page picture book, which has reached thousands of people across America. In the book, she references the over 160,000 students who miss school daily for fear of being bullied.

Horton isn’t sure exactly what the future holds, but for now, she’s positive about leading her school’s student government. “I don’t know exactly what I’ll be doing, but I know I’ll be making a positive influence on the world,” she says. She’s already on her way, but her biggest achievement in her own eyes is persuading others not to doubt themselves along the way. “Don’t care what anybody tells you,” she says. “You are never too young to make a change.”

【1】Why was Horton bullied?

D．Curiosity.

【3】What can we learn from Horton’s story?

B．No voice is too small.

C．Success is peace of mind.

D．Imperfections are beauty.

【4】What might be the best title for the passage?

A．A Picture-Book Writer

B．A Hip-Hop Music Lover

C．An Environmental Activist

D．An Anti-Bullying Advocate

23、   Someday soon an emoji (表情符号)might really save lives.

Hiroyuki Komatsu is a Google engineer who suggested adding a series of new emojis to the standard emoji library. It could help those with food allergies (过敏)understand what they are eating anywhere in the world. Emojis should cover characters representing major food causing allergies. They make people understand what are used in foods even in foreign countries and safely select meals.

Emojis are universal because they are chosen and developed by the Unicode Consortium, a non-profit company that oversees, develops and maintains how text is represented. This is in regards to all software products and standards. It's thanks to the Unicode Standard that when you text a friend six pizza emojis, they’ll see those six pizza pieces on their phone. This is true regardless of whether they use an iPhone or an Android.

Because emojis are everywhere and visual(视觉的),they could be helpful for restaurants and food packaging designers. They can communicate whether a product is made with common causing-allergy food. But as Komatsu’s advice argues, many of the most common causing-allergy foods are missing or poorly represented by the present emoji library. For example, there is an emoji for octopus, but nothing for squid. There is a loaf of bread that could symbolize grain, but a picture of wheat could be clearer. The emojis can be more direct when symbolizing foods.

It’s not uncommon for the Unicode Consortium to add new emojis to the library: several food-related emojis were put into use last June, including some long-waited food emojis. Apple included support for multiracial emojis in a recent iOS update. An artist even recreated Moby-Dick in emoji characters. Some might be sorry for the continuing death of the written word if Komatsu’s suggestion is accepted, but look on the bright side: if you ever see that happy poop on a box, you’ll know to stay away.

【1】How will emojis save lives according to the text?

A．By showing what the food contains visually.

B．By telling the safest places in the world.

C．By teaching people how to treat allergies.

D．By adding standard emojis about safety.

【2】What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us?

A．Emojis have the same meanings around the world.

B．The Unicode Consortium is a non-profit company.

C．What emojis represent is different in different places.

D．Different mobile operating systems have different emojis.

【3】What can be the reason for Komatsu’s advice?

A．Emojis are easy to mix up.

B．Present emojis are not enough.

C．Emojis can't interest most users.

D．Emojis can't represent foods directly.

【4】What is the author’s attitude to Komatsu's suggestion?

A．Doubtful.

B．Worried.

C．Supportive.

D．Uninterested.

24、Soon, no one will type. I know this because in science-fiction movies people communicate with devices (设备) by talking. Being a person who is aware of technological change and yet still somehow chooses to work for a news magazine, I felt it was my responsibility to test your future for you by collecting voice-controlled devices.

I went to my desk, turned on my Lynx SmartGrill and said, "SmartGrill, cook scallops (扇贝)." It asked me to put the scallops on the heated grill (烤架), told me when to turn them, and informed me when to remove them. I ordered the scallops by speaking to my Amazon Dash, a hand-held stick that made a list of groceries. Talking into my LG Watch Urbane made me seem so powerful. For instance, I can control the air conditioning in my house by giving an order to my wrist. But my favorite thing to talk to is Amazon Echo, a tower-shaped speaker, which could also provide information, play music, read the news, check the weather, and more instantly, it even provided jokes for my column.

At first, I was polite with all my devices, saying "please" and "thank you". Then I realized how stupid that was, like petting (抚摸) your robot cleaner. So I started to order them around which felt great. I yelled, "Alexa, off!" Then my son Laszlo started doing it too, and I realized that we sounded like mean (刻薄的) bosses.

Eventually, however, Laszlo started insisting I say "please" and "thank you" to my devices. It's not that he found it a lot of fun to tell his parents to say polite words. It's because in this way "they said more things back," and he could continue talking to them. Furthermore, I think Laszlo knows that how your act affects who you are, I'm far less worried that robots are going to be mean, and more worried that they're going to turn us into total jerks (混蛋). Because I believe saying something awful is far more poisonous than typing it.

【1】What does the author probably do?

A．A typist

B．An inventor

C．An actor

D．A writer

【2】If the author wants to buy something, he will talk to________.

A．Amazon Dash

B．Lynx SmartGrill

C．Amazon Echo

D．LG Watch Urbane

【3】Why did Laszlo demand that his father say polite words to the devices?

A．Because he thought it was stupid to say mean words

B．Because he wanted to keep on talking to the devices

C．Because he thought it was fun to give parents orders.

D．Because he wanted to make friends with the devices.

【4】What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph?

A．We have become too dependent on devices

B．Our lives have been greatly changed by devices

C．We should mind our manners while using devices.

D．Parents needn't worry about the effect of devices.

25、There isn’t any doubt that positive thinking is valuable after you find out you have cancer. But will positive_________ help the cancer go away?

There have been a number of studies on this_________ , but none of the studies say that positive thinking is a_________ in helping cancer go away, or that_________ feelings can make cancer worse.

So, is there a reason to have a positive_________ ? Of course there is.

While I understand the danger of my illness, I choose not to_________   statistics. I always imagine myself as being among the small group of patients who survive._________ do I do that? So I can sleep well; so I can plan a trip for two days from now; so I have a reason to begin writing another book with the_________ that I’ll finish it; so my husband and I can enjoy lunch out; so I can_________   to someone else who is having a difficult time and offer them____________ .

A positive attitude can also help family members feel better so they can____________ a more loving family environment. Most cancer patients, as well as their family members, know all too well how dangerous cancer can be. It’s difficult to____________ when patients receive bad news. But a positive attitude helps me want to do things that I know are____________ to my health, and helps me____________ the thinning hair, tiredness and low blood counts which are the____________ effects of my treatment.

So, I____________ to stay happy and positive. I do my best not to think too much about all the hospital visits, and I try not to____________ if I feel any pain.____________, I seek joy as much as I can, and because I am seeking joy, I find joy. Being positive might not save you from cancer, but I can almost____________ you that if you are positive, you will find____________ in your life, as well as happiness in every day that you live.
