第二节短文理解阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出最佳选项回答问题或完成句子。（共10小题，计20分）
A
A letter with some photos came from Uncle Max. In the letter, he said “I am going to explore again. Please look after my little pet.”
“What kind of pet?” said Dad. Mum read on: “She’s called Cucumber, and she will be easy to feed.” But what kind of pet is it? Biff thinks it is a kitten. Chip thinks it is a gerbil. Kipper thinks it is a puppy. And Dad thinks it is a gorilla.
Just then, Uncle Max arrived. He put a bag down gently. “Meet Cucumber,”he said. “A snake!” shouted Dad. “She eats crickets, flies and worm,” said Uncle Max. “Don’t let her escape and spray her tank with water. I will be back in a few weeks’ time.” After he left, the family all looked at Cucumber and didn’t know what to do.
Anneena came to play and saw Cucumber, “What a beautiful snake!” she said, “She is quite harmless. But don’t handle her too much at first. Let her settle in.” But the family were still very afraid of the little pet. Every day, Anneena came to help look after Cucumber. She also told them how to feed her, how to pick her up, how to clean out the tank. Days later, Mum held Cucumber and began to like her. But the rest of the family were not sure about liking keeping a snake in the house.
Mrs. May let the children bring the snake to school. Anneena gave a talk to the class and told that snakes were amazing creatures. A message from Uncle Max arrived, “I won’t be back for a year,” he said, “Why don’t you keep Cucumber?” The Bills thought up a good idea. They gave Cucumber to Anneena. “Have a real cucumber in return!” she said happily.
46. Uncle Max kept a _______ as a pet.
A. kitten
B. puppy
C. snake
47.To look after Cucumber well, they should _______.
A. let her escape
B. keep her tank wet
C. feed her with fish
48. _______ told the family to how to look after Cucumber.

49. Which of the following is True?
A. Anneena gave a real cucumber to the family.
B. Mum wasn’t afraid of Cucumber at all at first.
C. Bill knew much about taking good care of Cucumber.
50. The passage mainly tells us that _______.
A. not all snakes are scary
B. Bill and his family are very strict people

B
Do you have friends or relatives who live in other parts of China? For example, maybe you live in Beijing, but you have cousins in Chongqing. But luckily, if you want to call them on the phone or do a video chat with them, you don’t have to worry about which time zone you are in. This is because almost all of China follows a single standard time.
But some countries have many different time zones. For example, the US alone has five different time zones. My hometown New York is in the Eastern Time Zone. But my friends in California are in the Pacific Time Zone, which is three hours behind my time zone. So, if I want to call them, I have to plan with them ahead of time to make sure we are both free at the same time.
Actually, there is one exception (例外) in China: the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region (新疆维吾尔族自治区). In this region, people either follow Beijing Time — the time that the rest of the country follows — or Xinjiang Time, which is about two hours behind Beijing Time. People in Xinjiang have to be clear whether they are using Xinjiang Time or Beijing Time when making plans with each other.
For the first year I lived in China, I would often get phone calls from my mother very late at night because she forgot to consider the time difference. My hometown is exactly 12 hours behind China time! But by now, my family, friends and I have gotten used to the difference.
51. There are _______ time zone(s) in America.
A. one
B. two
C. five
52. The writer has to make a plan with fiends in California before calling because _______.
A. they are both free
B. they are at the same time
C. they are in different time zones
53. The underlined word “consider” means _______.
A. 认为
B. 关心
C. 考虑
54. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. All of China follows a single standard time.
B. People in Xinjiang can choose the time they use.
C. It is 10:00 in New York when it is 12:00 in California.
55. The best title for this passage is _______ .
A. Learn to Save Time
B. Make Plans before Calling
C. Different Countries, Different Times

Back to the frontlines
Seventeen years later, Zhong is once again leading a team to fight the 2019-nCoV. Although this new virus may be more dangerous to old people, Zhong worries little about his own safety.
He takes a high-speed train from Guangzhou to Wuhan. Then he becomes the first expert to tell people that the virus can be spread (传播) between humans. Then his team developed a rapid test kit (快速检测试剂盒) for the disease that can show results within 15 minutes.
