21、If a single word can describe our daily life during those first three years, it is “scrounge”(讨要). Every waking moment we were concentrating on how the hell we would be able to save up enough coins to do whatever it was we had to do. Even the simplest decision must be inspected by the ever alert budget committee of your mind.

“Hey, Oliver, let’s go to see Becket tonight.”

“Listen, it’s three bucks.”

“What do you mean?”

“I mean a buck fifty for you and a buck fifty for me.”

“Does that mean yes or no?”

“Neither. It just means three bucks.”

Our honeymoon was spent on a yacht and with twenty-one children. That is, I sailed from 7 o’clock in the morning till whenever my passengers had enough, and Jenny was a children’s counselor. It was a place called the Pequod Boat Club in Dennis Port——an establishment that included a large hotel, a marina and several dozen houses for rent. In one of the tinier bungalows (平房), I have nailed an imaginary plaque (匾牌): “Oliver and Jenny slept here”. I think it’s a tribute (致敬) to us both that after a long day of being kind to our customers, for we were largely dependent on their tips for our income, Jenny and I were nonetheless kind to each other: I simply say “kind”, because I lack the vocabulary to describe what loving and being loved by Jennifer Cavilleri is like. Sorry, I mean Jennifer Barrett.

Before leaving for the Cape, we found a cheap apartment in North Cambridge, which was, as Jenny described it, “in the state of disrepair”. It had originally been a two-family structure, now changed into four apartments, overpriced even at its “cheap” rental. But what the hell can graduate students do? It’s a seller’s market.

【1】What can we learn from the conversation between Oliver and Jenny?

A．Neither of them wanted to see Becket.

B．They didn’t have three bucks.

C．Jenny was wasting money.

D．Oliver was an economical man.

【2】Why were Oliver and Jenny friendly to customers?

A．They were both counselors for children.

B．They needed to get tips from customers.

C．They didn’t have enough room to live in.

D．That was the rule on the yacht.

【3】What does Jennifer imply about their apartment by saying “in the state of disrepair”?

A．It was not cheap.

B．It was not distant.

C．It was not decent.

D．It was not luxurious.

【4】Which might be the best title of the passage?

A．A couple’s debt repayment process

B．A couple’s miserable life

C．A couple’s honeymoon trip

D．A couple’s holiday on a yacht

22、During World War II, Duchess Nina Douglas-Hamilton played a vital role in looking after animals.

As the war broke out, the government issued orders for the mass killing livestock (家畜) to prevent them from being captured or destroyed by the enemy. Duchess Nina launched a campaign to save as many animals as possible, and soon became known as the “animal heroine” for her efforts.

Duchess Nina worked with local farmers and animal owners to relocate animals to safer areas, such as the Scottish Highlands. She also established a network of volunteers who helped to care for animals during the war. She organized feeding programs, medical care and transportation, ensuring that animals were well looked after even during the most difficult times. The most challenging aspect of her work was the shortage of food during the war. So she established a vegetable garden and used leftovers to create nutritious meals for animals. She also reached out to the public for donations of food and supplies, and was able to secure enough resources to keep animals healthy and fed.

In addition to her work with domestic animals, Duchess Nina was also a strong advocate for wildlife conservation. She established a center for wild animals Scotland, where she provided a safe place for deer, foxes and other animals that were threatened by the war. She also worked with local protection groups to protect natural habitats.

Duchess Nina’s work during World War II was not without its risks. She frequently risked her life to save animals, often driving through perilous areas.

Sadly, some people saw her efforts as a distraction from the war effort. However, she continued to work tirelessly for animals. After the war, Duchess Nina’s work was recognized by the government and she got an important award for her services to animals.

23、   As an adult, I realized that I had no skills, so I went to trade school. I entered a cabinetmaking program. I didn't think I would be good at building furniture. I’m not handy. Nobody in my family is.

I had great teachers, but making furniture is hard. There are so many steps and something can go wrong at each one. I couldn't even get organized. My toolbox always looked like hurricane had gone through it.

I didn’t fully know what I was devoting myself to at the beginning, but I kept going to class. I tried to wrap my brain around the math. The projects forced me to solve new kinds of problems. My brain started to build new connections. Working in this new physical manner and giving it 100 percent of my effort had huge benefits for my mental health. I got over fear of embarrassment and asked for help at every opportunity.

I spent that year truly learning. True learning is a humbling experience, especially for those of us who are learning a new set of skills. I could understand exactly what was wrong with the furniture I made, but I couldn't fix my mistakes. And yet, I kept trying. And failing. And failing again. Until I learned to fail better.

You're going to be bad at anything when you start out, but I was pretty bad right to the end. Even so, I finished the program — with honors! My grades were helped by my good written wort Having to constantly push beyond my comfort zone has made me a better-rounded person. Maybe most importantly, trade school gave me a more realistic idea of my strengths and limitations. I'm stronger than I thought!

【1】Why did the author attend the program?

A．To develop new skills.

B．To become a handy designer.

C．To get more organized.

D．To learn to make furniture.

【2】What can we conclude from the author's learning experience?

A．He had a gift for making furniture.

B．He became stronger mentally and physically eventually.

C．It is challenging to know how to correct mistakes.

D．Good written work helped him a lot.

【3】Which words can best describe the author?

A．Hard-working and confident.

B．Devoted and determined.

C．Intelligent and creative.

D．Modest and independent.

【4】What does the author really want to convey?

A．Practice makes perfect.

B．Learning is more than a skill.

C．Be a well-rounded person.

D．A good make ugly.

24、“The Man with the Golden Arm” may sound like the name of some superhero in a comic book. But this name belongs to 78-year-old James Harrison — an Australian man who has donated blood almost every week, saving more than 2 million babies in the process.

Harrison told CNN, an American channel, about why he chooses to donate, even though it's not the most pleasurable experience: “Never once have I watched the needle go in my arm. I can't stand the sight of blood, and I can't stand pain.”

An amazingly unique antibody （抗体）in Harrison's blood makes it a true lifesaver for babies who could be affected by rhesus disease.

The condition occurs during some pregnancies, when a woman who has rhesus-negative blood produces antibodies that destroy her babies’ cells. This can happen when the baby has the same rhesus-positive blood as the father. Rhesus disease can cause health issues in babies. It can even result in death.

Harrison, blood helped physicians develop an injection called Anti-D in the 1960s, which prevents women who have rhesus-negative blood from developing the harmful antibodies while pregnant. After Harrison completes one of his routine donations, his blood can be used to create more vaccines （疫苗）.

“I started donating in 1955, two days after I turned 18," Harrison said when he completed his 1,075th donation.

As CNN reported, every Anti-D vaccine created in Australia has something to do with a donation from Harrison, who holds the record for most blood donations in Australia.

“A number of mothers have come up to me and said, "Thank you very much for what you've done, because I now have one, two, three healthy children', " Harrison said.

Harrison's own daughter, Tracey Mellowship, had been one of the 17 percent of women who need Anti-D during their pregnancy. The injection helped guarantee her second son would be born healthy.

“Dad had always donated — we knew that,” Mellowship said. “But it didn't hit me until I was pregnant and knew the consequences.”

【1】From the first two paragraphs, what can we infer about Harrison?

A．He is humorous and smart.

B．He is friendly but nervous.

C．He is brave and unselfish.

D．He is optimistic but weak.

【2】What can we learn about the babies affected by rhesus disease?

A．They have the same blood type as their mothers.

B．They develop the disease after being born.

C．They can't form Wood themselves.

D．They grow problematic cells.

【3】Harrison's blood can____.

A．help patients develop Anti-D

B．cure rhesus disease affected babies

C．help avoid the risk of rhesus disease

D．stop babies from producing antibodies

【4】Before Mellowship was injected Anti-D, her family didn't____.

A．know Harrison held a record for donating blood

B．expect she would have another healthy son

C．realize the high rate of potential rhesus disease

D．understand the meaning of Harrison’s act
