二、阅读理解（共4题，共 20分）

21、I can’t remember when my dog finally stopped crying in fear at its top voice. For months after we took her home from a nearby rescue organization, Millie cried all the time. If you only walked past her, a sound would erupt that could freeze your blood.

When we adopted Millie in August of 2019 she was mentally hurt to a serious degree. Obviously, she was afraid of everything around her. A gentle touch from a little kid or the friendly smell of a small dog could make this full-grown dog frightened to death. The lights of a car would send her into great fear. Many sights and sounds terrified Millie so much that once she even couldn’t go to sleep in 36 hours.

But recently we’ve come to realize that we might have turned Millie into a naughty(淘气的) kid. Early on, trying to make her believe that the world contains good things, my husband started saving her the last mouth of his bread. This dog who had to be tricked (哄骗)into eating now knows exactly when the clock strikes five and then she follows me around and reaches his paws to me until I feed her. This dog who feared all strangers now greets guests with a kind of enthusiasm that not all guests actually welcome.

People who haven’t seen her for a while all say that, “This is not the same dog I met last time.” But she is the same dog. She has just become a happier, braver dog. Even now, Millie is not yet the dog she is in the process of becoming. But the warmth of the world has turned her into a better self.

【1】Why does the author write the passage?

A．To encourage us to raise a dog.

B．To teach us ways to train a dog.

C．To show us the warmth of the world.

D．To share her story about a dog.

【2】What does the underlined word in Paragraph 2 mean?

A．To take a suggestion.

B．To show a particular attitude.

C．To accept as a family member.

D．To follow as a tradition.

【3】“This is not the same dog I met last time.” in the last paragraph means ________

A．People forget what Millie looked like.

B．Millie’s personality has changed a lot.

C．The author is raising another dog.

D．Millie has become the best dog as expected.

【4】How does the writer develop the passage?

A．By giving reasons.

B．By explaining meanings.

C．By listing figures.

D．By showing contrast.

22、 Amazon is reportedly working on a free, ad-supported music offering as another option to its paid Amazon Music Unlimited and Prime Music services to better compete with Apple Music, Google Music and Spotify. According to Billboard, the free plan could go live as soon as possible. At this time, the service is only available in the US for users who request music by a trial version (HIA), but a full-fledged version of the free ad- based music service is expected to be launched sometime in the future.

Billboard reports that Amazon is now in talks to make an ad-based free level available for its music service. The company is expected to advertise the plan with its Echo speakers. By now, Amazon Music Unlimited runs $ 10 per month standalone (单机), the same as Apple Music and Sportify. Meanwhile Prime Music offers Amazon Prime members a more limited selection of content for no extra charge. A new ad supported free level would make Amazon the third music offering.

Billboard notes that it's not clear how many paying users Amazon currently has, though it may have been around 20 million last year for all of its services. In contrast, Apple Music reportedly hit 28 million paying users in the US alone, beaten by Spotify.

Amazon hasn't disclosed how many paying music users it has, but some reports last year estimated it counts over 20 million users across its offerings and expect it to gain steadily thanks to integration with its market-leading smart speakers.

But Spotify is still the market leader for global users when it comes to music services with close to 100 million users. Amazon’s move could attract more and more users.

【1】What does the underlined word "full-fledged" in paragraph 1mean?

A.Modern. B.Junior. C.Powerful. D.Perfect.

【2】What can we infer about Amazon from the second paragraph?

A.It wants support from users.

B.It has too many advertisements.

C.It would be the third biggest Music offering.

D.It will lose more free users.

【3】Which of the following has the most music users?

A.Spotify. B.Amazon. C.Google Music. D.Apple Music.

【4】What is the main idea of the text?

A.Amazon has the most piece of music.

B.Amazon will release a free music service.

C.Amazon will defeat Apple Music and Spotify.

D.Amazon has defeated Apple Music and Spotify.

23、How to congratulate someone

Joyful time goes hand in hand with congratulations. When you address graduates, newly-weds, or anyone with good news, a hearty ”congratulations” is in order.【1】

Bring up the subject. When there is something to celebrate, don’t skirt around the issue. 【2】You can also tell him or her how you heard the news if necessary. Besides, you should set the right tone and send congratulations with the right words to share in the person’s happiness more easily.

【3】You can further convey your feelings appropriately after saying “congratulations”. For instance, you may say that you adore the person who tries hard to achieve his or her goal, or merely say” I am so happy for you.” Remember that your tone of voice can really carry weight.【4】

Try to make your congratulations sincere. You ought to make your words and actions heartfelt, for whatever reason you send congratulations to someone. Surely there will be moments when your compliments are not given from the bottom of your heart.【5】 Remind yourself to congratulate other people rather than nursing jealous,（妒忌的） because there may come a time when it is your turn to be in the spotlight.

D.But you'd better be as generous as possible.

F.To send congratulations more effectively, you’d better obey the three tips.

24、 Finding a new job isn’t always easy. You search for a suitable vacancy, send in an application form and if that goes well, you might be invited for an interview. 【1】 —you‟re going to be faced by a panel of strangers who‟ll fire difficult questions at you, and you‟ll have to actually prove yourself. But how would you feel if, instead of being asked why you want the job, you‟re asked to stand up and dance?!

From the perspective of a company, it wants to hire the right person because they can make a big difference to the success of the organization. 【2】. A good interview process should involve rigorous screening (筛选) of job applicants and effective questions that every applicant gets asked. But that‟s not always the case.

【3】 . She told the BBC that some companies “give their interviewers little or no training and often leave them completely on their own when it comes to figuring out what to ask job candidates.” She mentions that some interviewers are too casual and some focus on building a good rapport (融洽的关系)and end up hiring the candidate they just “clicked with” (与……引起共鸣), regardless of their skills and abilities.

An inexperienced interviewer may think it‟s clever to ask “if you were an animal, what kind would you be?” That has been asked, Alison Green says, but in reality this has no connection with the job.

【4】. Talking of inappropriate, the BBC heard from a number of people who were surprised by the questions they were asked in an interview. Mature student Kevin Helton said that “the interviewer asked, “you used to be in the Army, how many people have you killed?”

But Alison Green points out: 【5】 , and while the interviewer might be making judgments, the candidate can also make their own judgement and decide if this is really the career move (职业发展) they want to make!

A.While a candidate might feel at the mercy of an interviewer, they are able to question why they‟re being asked something

B.Alison Green is an author and creator of the workplace advice column “Ask a Manager”

C.For some, this is when the panic sets in

D.It is a tough time for most of us

E.It therefore needs to test a candidate in the most appropriate way to discover how suitable he or she may be

F.We may be in such a case when in an interview

G.And there have been inappropriate requests, such as one job seeker being asked to show the interviewer the inside of her handbag to demonstrate how organized she was

26、阅读下面材，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一个完整的故事，续写短文的词数为 150 左右。

Amy is good at making pies, which got her hired at the Good Times restaurant months ago. And she was often regarded as the best worker there. Recently, she became the supervisor at the restaurant. She was kind and friendly to all the other workers and the customers.

One morning, Amy was taking orders when she overheard a conversation. “What you did there was great, Mason! It was hard to carry the old lady safely out of the fire. For a moment, I thought you were gone, my friend,” one man said. To this, the other man replied, “Yeah, it was difficult, but that’s our job. And you were the hero today, Gordon. You carried that girl on your shoulder and her dog in your hand. It’s going to be on the front page tomorrow, I’m telling you.”

From their clothing and conversation, Amy knew they were firefighters. And she quickly realized that they had been talking about the previous night’s fire at the old motel on the other end of the road. Then the man named Gordon continued, “I don’t care about being in the papers. The little girl and her dog reminded me of my own daughter. She’s constantly asking for a dog, too.” Amy was moved by the courage and sincerity of the two men. She wanted to show her appreciation for their selfless service.

Paragraph 1:

“How about helping pay for their meal?” she wondered.
