21、At 12:46 p. m. on May 4th, 2022, thirteen Chinese scientists reached the top of Mount Qomolangma. They built eight world’s highest weather stations from 5200 to 8800 meters on the mountain and four of them were above 7000 meters.

“The first research began in 2017 and it was an important moment of China’s second scientific travel to Qomolangma. The station at 8800 meters would be the world’s highest weather station,” the leader Yao Tangdong said. To finish the work, Chinese government made up 16 teams with more than 270 scientists. They’ve gotten a training of over three years.

This year researchers will use the newest technologies to these weather stations. They can study the natural environments and human activities on Qomolangma. The newest technologies will also help scientists study different weather, so they can make right decisions about climate（气候）change.

With these technologies, strong help from government and hard work from scientists, China will become a front-runner in fields such as information technology, science, mountain climbing and geography about the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau （高原）in the world.

Mount Qomolangma was around 8848, 86 meters from the research of China and Nepal in 2020. “There are many key scientific questions left unanswered. If our researches go on, I believe we will have more findings and developments to share with the world,” Yao added.

22、阅读短文，根据短文内容判断所给句子正(T)误(F)。

One day, a farmer found some eagles’(鹰的) eggs in the mountains. He took one and put it under one of his hens along with its eggs. Some weeks later, a cute and healthy bird came out of the egg. The mother hen named it Hector and raised(养育) it as one of its babies. So Hector learned to do all the things chickens could do.

Years passed and Hector grew older. One day, it saw an eagle flying in the sky. “What’s that?” asked Hector.

“That’s an eagle, ” replied a chicken named Vince. “That’s the king of birds. It’s a bird of the sky. We’re only chickens. We’re birds of the earth.” After that, they all continued their life as usual. So Hector lived and died as a chicken because it thought it was.

【1】The farmer found some eagles’ eggs on his farm.

【2】The mother hen raised Hector as its baby.

23、During the summer holiday, some students might have been busy with traveling, summer camps and all kinds of courses. But a speciall group of Chinese middle school students decided to taste the hardship of life outside school.

Twelve students in a big city sold vegetables at a local market together. Within 12 days, they made more than 1,500 yuan.

Among them, the oldest is 21 years old, while the youngest is just 10. They are all cousins in a big family and eight of them are from rural areas.

“Compared to traveling, such social practice connects us and makes us learn how tough our parents are,” said Dalin,18, to the City Morning Post. Dalin, a senior high graduate, and her 12-year-old brother Xiaolin came up with the idea.

They learned to work hard to sell their veggies. Every morning they had to wake up at 3 o’clock. Some of them went to the farmer’s market to buy vegetables. Some of them went to the local market to take up a temporary stall (临时摊位）. To lower the cost, they learned to bargain (讲价）with the sellers.

At about 6:30 am, they began to sell vegetables. They peddled (吆喝) loudly to attract（吸引）customers. After several days, they got some experience, too.

For example, it was better to put vegetables in order and bigger ones on top. When the vegetables are too heavy, they should give customers an extra plastic bag.

When they finally packed up and went home, they had a small meeting. Everyone took notes and shared their feelings.

“We are tired,” said Dalin. “but we gained a lot”.
