21、   Leonardo da Vinci was born in 1452; apparently in a Tuscan village called Anchiano, not far from Vinci, and died in France in 1519. He may be best known as an artist but he was also an engineer, thinker and inventor.

“Even talking about Leonardo as an artist and Leonardo as an engineer has little sense if we try to think like a Renaissance man, because everything was so much connected at that time,” says Claudio Giorgione, curator at the Leonardo da Vinci National Science and Technology Museum in Milan.

As Europe prepares to mark the 500th anniversary of his death, a drawing of a bear by Leonardo da Vinci is expected to fetch up to £12m at auction.

The picture, titled Head of a Bear, is being sold in London by Christie’s. It will go on display in New York and Hong Kong before being auctioned and is expected to fetch between £8m and £12m, according to the auction house.

Ben Hall, the old master paintings chairman at Christie’s New York, described the drawing as “one of the most important works from the Renaissance still in private hands”. He said: “The work has been owned by some of the most distinguished collectors in the field of old masters across many centuries, not least the present owner who has owned it since 2008.”

“It has been admired around the world, while shown by prestigious museums, and Christie’s is honoured to bring this Leonardo to the market this season.”

Head of a Bear, which measures 7cm by 7cm, is a silverpoint drawing on pale pink-beige paper. It has previously gone on display at museums including the National Gallery in London, where it was shown in 2011 and 2012 as part of an exhibition on Leonardo.

The drawing will be shown in London from 1 to 6 June before it is sold on 8 July.

【1】What do we know about Leonardo da Vinci?

A．He is 70s when he died.

B．Claudio Giorgione said he is just an artist.

C．His work sold £12m.

D．He is not only an artist but an engineer.

【2】The underline word in paragraph 4 means ________.

A．bring

B．sell

C．add

D．earn

【3】What can we infer about the work?

A．It has been shown on many museums.

B．It doesn’t belong to private collectors now.

C．It measures 7cm by 7m.

D．It will be displayed in July in London.

【4】What’s the best title of this passage?

A．The 500th Anniversary of Leonardo da Vinci’s Death

B．The Achievement of Leonardo da Vinci

C．A Drawing of a Bear by Leonardo da Vinci Is To Be Sold

D．Leonardo da Vinci Is Not Just an Artist But an Engineer

22、   A quick look at Instagram will show you thousands of girls sharing their clothing of the day. Many of these girls are sharing completely new clothes every day. And they’re feeling the pressure to never repeat clothes. This attitude of not being able to wear something again after sharing it on Instagram is far too common. It is a sad thing when some girls feel sorry for appearing in the same clothes more than once on Instagram.

Clothes businesses push new “must-haves” every week, which adds to the pressure to keep up. Clothes have been so cheap because of the competition between clothes businesses that it’s shockingly easy to buy new clothes every day. These clothes businesses have made it possible for a normal person to never be seen in the same clothes twice. Often the quality of these clothes is so low that they don’t even survive the wash so there is no chance of that second wear.

Consider everything that goes into making a single piece of clothing—for example: plenty of water, energy and petrochemicals, finishing and labor of each worker throughout making it. It’s shocking to think after all this, a piece of clothing might be worn once, maybe twice, and then thrown away so that they can follow fast fashion.

The fashion of throwing clothes away after use needs to change. Proudly post the same clothes you’ve worn before online. Get creative with mixing and matching, and borrow from friends for special times. The possibilities are endless so there’s no need to shop frequently.

【1】What is a sad thing according to the first paragraph?

A．Some girls like showing off on the Internet.

B．Some girls spend too much time on social media.

C．Some girls care too little about their appearances.

D．Some girls think posting the same clothes online again wrong.

【2】What leads to the girls’ wearing the same clothes only once?

A．Online shopping.

B．Parents’ pressure.

C．Clothes businesses.

D．Laziness to wash clothes.

【3】Why does the author mention how single piece of clothing is made?

A．To tell us we should treasure clothes.

B．To show fast fashion’s great influence.

C．To show the development of the clothes industry.

D．To tell us we should have our own dressing styles.

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

A．Offer reasons.

B．Give suggestions.

C．Give encouragement.

D．Offer more information.

24、   Some plants get so hungry that they eat flies, spiders, and even small frogs. What’s more amazing is that these plants occur naturally (in special environment) in every state. In fact, they’re found on every continent except Antarctica.

You’ve probably seen a Venus’ flytrap. It’s often sold in museum gift stores, department stores, and even supermarkets. A small plant, it grows 6 to 8 inches tall in a container. At the end of its stalks(茎) are specially modified leaves that act like traps. Inside each trap is a lining of tiny trigger(触发) hairs. When an insect lands on them, the trap suddenly shut. Over the course of a week or so, the plant feeds on its catch.

The Venus’ flytrap is just one of more than 500 species of meat-eating plants, says Barry Meyers-Rice, the editor of the International Carnivorous(食肉的) Plant Society’s Newsletter. Note: Despite any science-fiction stories you might have read, no meat-eating plant does any danger to humans.

Dr. Meyers-Rice says a plant is meat-eating, only if it does all four of the following: “attract, kill, digest, and absorb” some forms of insects, including flies, butterflies, and moths. Meat-eating plants look and act like other green plants ---well, most of the time.

All green plants make sugar through a process called photosynthesis(光合作用). Plants use the sugar to make food. What makes “meat-eating” plants different is their bug-catching leaves. They need insects for one reason: nitrogen(氮). Nitrogen is a nutrient that they can’t obtain any other way. Why almost all green plants on our planet get nitrogen from the soil, “meat-eating” plants can’t. They live in places where nutrients are hard or almost impossible to get from the soil because of its acidity. So they’ve come to rely on getting nitrogen from insects and small animals. In fact, nutrient-rich soil is poisonous to “meat-eating” plants. Never fertilize them! But don’t worry, either, if they never seem to catch any insects. They can survive, but they’ll grow very slowly.

【1】According to the passage, carnivorous plants ________.

A.only grow in wild field B.are rare to see

C.are as common as flies D.cannot grow on Antarctica

【2】We can conclude from the third paragraph that ________.

A.carnivorous plants are dangerous

B.carnivorous plants are fictional

C.carnivorous plants occasionally eat books

D.carnivorous plants are harmless to humans

【3】In the eyes of the author, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A.Carnivorous plants cannot grow in acid soil.

B.Carnivorous plants can grow in nutrient-poor soil.

C.Carnivorous plants will die if they cannot catch any insects.

D.Carnivorous plants can get nitrogen from nutrient-rich soil.

25、Aiding local community

Benjamin Franklin said that, “If you want something done, ask a busy person.” That’s how Manny Abreu _________.

Throughout his four years s at Kellenberg Memorial High School in the US, Abreu made community service an important part of his _________.

“I don’t know where he finds the time to do everything,” said Erin Ronan, Abreu’s math teacher. “He’s truly an outstanding student.”

As an honors student, Abreu, 18, participated in different volunteer activities after school, during weekends and summer holidays. These _________ helping staff at the public library, doing landscape work (庭院工程) at Kellenberg and _________ customers at a local restaurant.

Because he, was _________ with a limited number of hours in a day, Abreu _________ his library job last summer to start working as an emergency medical technician — a role that _________ his passion for making a difference in other people’s lives.

“My appreciation for service has guided me into _________,”said Abreu, who is setting his mind on becoming a doctor. “It’s such a(n) _________ feeling to help someone.”

During his years at high school, Abreu devoted between 40 and 50 hours of his time each year to volunteer work — more than double the school’s annual __________ of 20 hours. For all his hard work, Abreu was welcomed into a leadership club that __________ fellow students’ volunteer activities.

Abreu thanked his parents for __________ him to do the right thing, saying they are “the most __________ people I know”. He remembered that when he was about 6 years old, his mother invited a __________ neighborhood boy to have dinner.

26、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

It was during the summer of 2010 when I finally got over my fear of waterslides (水滑道).

As we stood in line to get our bags checked, I looked at the rides and started to get nervous. I walked up to the long white table and handed my bag to the lady on the other side. She looked at me suspiciously in the eye, opened up my bag, peeked inside, and then handed it back aggressively. As I walked through the big metal gates, I looked up at all of the rides. My heart skipped a beat when I saw all of the twists and turns of each ride.

I got with my group and we jumped into the Lazy River. As I got myself caught up with my friends, Counselor Thomas called our group out. We all discussed about which ride we would like to go on first. I nervously sat down and listened, not quite ready to go onto any of the rides just yet. They finally decided to go on the Storm Rider.

Nia, wearing her green T-shirt, skipped up to me. “Hey! Want to go on the ride with me?” she asked excitedly. “Umm”, I hesitated and thought, “What if they make fun of me for being scared of rides?” “Sure, why not!” I blurted out. “OK!” Nia exclaimed, “Charlie and Kevin! Grab a float please!” The two boys fished out a big rubber float (橡皮浮圈) and started pulling it up the stairs forcibly. Nia and I followed along. As we waited in line, I listened to the people on all of the other rides scream.

We climbed all the way to the top of the steps. I looked down at the yellow and blue frightening ride and panicked a little when I saw the steepness of the drop. Then we listened to the lifeguard for the safety rules. The more he talked, the more nervous I got. I gripped onto the rubber handles on the seat. All of a sudden I heard the lifeguard ask, “Are you all ready?” Charlie, Nia, and Kevin all exclaimed, “Yeah!” I held on tight and braced myself for what’s about to happen.
