His name was St Clare. He was travelling with his daughter called Eva, who was between five and six years old. She was a beautiful child, with blonde hair and blue eyes. She was always busy or running around, and Tom noticed her and thought that she lookedlike an angel. She often went where the slaves sat in chains and looked at them with sad eyes. Sometimes she brought them food.One day, she talked with Uncle Tom for the first time. “So, Uncle Tom, where are you going?” Eva said. “I don’t know, Miss Eva.” Tom said. “Why not?” said Eva. “Because my master is going to sell me, and I don’t know who will buy me.” “My papa can buy you,” said Eva. “I’ll ask him today.” “Thank you,” said Tom.Later that day, Eva and her father were standing together on the upper deck on the sideof the boat. Suddenly, the child moved too quickly and fell into the water. Tom saw everything and he jumped into the water immediately. He caught her and swam back to the boat, where many people helped to lift her out of the water.Eva was with her father, who was talking to Haley. “So what’s the price?” The father asked. “More than thirteen hundred dollars,” said Haley. “He’s very good.” “That’s too much!” said St Clare. “Show me your papers.” “Papa, please buy him! The price is not important.” Eva said.The trader showed the papers signed by Mr Shelby. St Clare read them, signed a document and paid Haley. He took his daughter’s hand and went over to Tom. “Hello, Tom,” he said, “I’m your new master. Can you drive horses?”—Taken from Uncle Tom’s Cabin 34.According to the underlined sentences in Paragraph 1, we know that Eva is ______.

As a Canadian living in China for a year, I was curious to see what kind of advice the writer was giving on this matter.One piece of advice really caught my attention and, I must say, made me feel quite angry. In the writer’s opinion, foreigners are an “opportunity (机会)” to improve your oral English. If the foreigner doesn’t want to answer your questions, then he or she is a rude person who you wouldn’t want to spend time with anyway. I think the advice is not only incorrect, but also may harm the relationship between Chinese and foreigners in China.Like most other “Lao Wai” living in China, I know how lonely one can sometimes feel living in a culture different from our own familiar (熟悉的) ways. However, I simply accept as part of being here. So far my time in China has been rewarding, I have improved my Chinese language skills, learned about one of the fastest developing countries in the world today and made some very close Chinese friends.However, I have also met many Chinese people who consider me only as an “opportunity” to improve their oral English. I have had people following me from town to my flat to trouble me to teach them English. I have had complete strangers throwing articles or speeches in my face, insisting that I help them with the English translation.Friendship for a lot of foreigners is about spending time with someone who companies (陪伴) them. So if there is any advice to give on making and keeping friendships with foreigners, I would say that it is this: Treat foreigners as friends, not opportunities. We expect to make friendships step by step, over a period of time, not in a rush.38.What does the underlined phrase “this matter” in Paragraph 1 refer to (指代)? A.How to improve oral English B.How to translate written English C.How to give advice on languages D.How to make friends with foreigners 39.The writer of the passage felt ________ after he or she read one piece of advice. A.angry B.nervous C.hopeful D.happy 40.What can we infer from Paragraph 3?A.People in China like chatting with some foreigners.B.People in China often make friends with foreigners.C.The writer of the passage thinks his life in China is meaningful.D.The writer of the passage feels uneasy when meeting strangers.41.Which sentence can be put in the empty box in the last paragraph?A.Many hands make light work.B.True friendships stand the test of time. C.You can’t put all your eggs in one basket.D.Friendship can’t stand always on one side.D(2022·江苏扬州)In recent years, large-scale (大规模的) tree plantation programmes are a popular way to deal with the climate crisis (气候危机).These trees, they store lots of carbon dioxide from the air. They give us oxygen we breathe. And there’s no doubt that the right trees in the right place is a good thing. However, large-scale tree planting is becoming a problem.Yatir forest is Israel’s largest forest. But the four million trees are actually having a warming effect on the planet. And the bright desert surface reflected (反射) more sunlight than the present darker tree canopy (树冠) that replaced it. This forest is making global warming worse.What the Yatir forest warns us is that choosing the right location is very important. The wrong location can also use up groundwater and dry up streams. Choosing the right location isn’t the only challenge for large-scale tree plantations. Most of the time, these tree planting programmes choose one type of trees. They are bad for biodiversity (生物多样性).Another big problem is planting the wrong type of trees. In South Africa, the introduction of new types of trees has led to covering large areas of land. The country now spends millions of pounds clearing the trees every year.So, protecting the forests would be a better use of our time and resources. We should allow space around the forests for them to naturally expand. And it’s the best way to get more trees on the planet. One place where planting trees is good is in the cities. Trees help reduce noise, improve air quality, help prevent flooding, and even improve your physical and mental health.There is no one solution to the climate crisis. We have to use all the tools at hand to reduce greenhouse gases and slow down global warming.42.The underlined word “replaced” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.A.解释B.解决C.取消D.取代43.Which is the following shows the structure of the passage?( ① = Para 1① = Para 2... )A.①//①①①①//①B.①//①①①//①①C.①①//①①//①①D.①①//①①①//①44.What are the problems of large-scale tree planting according to the passage?a. Choosing the wrong locationb. Planting trees in the big citiesc. Planting the wrong type of treesd. Choosing only one type of treesA.abd B.abc C.acd D.bcd45.The purpose of the passage is ________.A.to call on people to take action to protect the environmentB.to ask more people to plant more trees in their daily livesC.to warn people to choose the right location to plant treesD.to remind people to pay much attention to their health四、阅读回答问题(每小题2分,共10分)(2021·江苏·扬州市)请认真阅读下面短文,用英语回答短文后的问题。

One was gentle and peaceful. The other was smart and kind but had a quick temper. If he wished to do a thing, he did it. If anyone tried to stop him, he would show sudden and terrible anger.One day, after another argument, blood came from his mouth. In great fear, he went to Confucius.“What shall I do with my body?” he asked, “I fear I shall not live long. It may be better that I no longer study and work. You love me as a father. Tell me what to do for my body.”Confucius answered, “Tsze_Lu, you are wrong about your body. It is not the study, nor the work in school, but your great anger that causes the trouble.”“When you and Nou_Wui argued, he was at peace and happy again in a short time but it took you too long to get over your anger. Also, you get angry with others too easily. If you don’t use moreself-control, you can’t expect to live long. Now tell me how many teeth you have.”“Thirty-two.”“How many tongues(舌头)?”“Just one.”“How many teeth have you lost?”“I lost one when I was nine years old, and four when I was about twenty-six years old.”“And your tongue -- is it still perfect?”“Oh, yes.”“You know Mun-Gun, who is quite old?”“Yes, I know him well.”“How many teeth do you think he had at your age?”“I do not know.”“How many does he have now?”“Two, I think. But his tongue is perfect, though he is very old.”“You see the teeth are lost because they are strong, and keep going after everything they want. They are hard and hurt the tongue many times. The tongue is peaceful and gentle with the teeth. It never grows angry and fights them. Yet, it is always there until the end.“And so it is with man. The strongest to fight, is the first to fail; and you, Tsze-Lu, will be even so if you don’e learn the great lesson of self-control.”26. According to the passage, who of the following got angry easily?A. Confucius.B. Tsze-Lu.C. Nou-Wui.D. Mun-Gun.27. Why did Tsze_Lu go to Confucius for help?A. He always argued with others.B. Others students didn’t like him.C. He was worried about his health.D. He was afraid he couldn’t study any more.28. From this story, which of the following best describe Confucius?A. Gentle and hard-working.B. Confident and good at learning.C. Serious and easy-going.D. Patient and skillful in teaching.29. What lesson can we learn from this story?A. We should never argue with others.B. Gentle people live longer than strong people.C. We should control ourselves and never stay angry for long.D. Always protect our teeth because they could be easily lost.(B)① A new study shows that roosters can identify(辨认) themselves in a mirror. The surprising result raises questions not just about how smart roosters are, but about how scientists test animal intelligence.② Scientists use Mark Test to test whether an animal can identify itself. First of all, a mark is put on ananimal, usually in a place that can only be seen with a mirror. Then the animal is placedbefore a mirror. If it seems to pay attention to the mark, scientists believe the animal hasidentified itself.③ The Mark Test is often seen as a good way to learn how smart an animals is. __▲__ Scientists at a university in Germany recently ran the Mark Test on roosters. They put a pink mark on the chest of the roosters. But when the roosters looked in a mirror, they didn’t seem to notice the mark.④ So the scientists tried a new test by using the shadow(阴影) of hawk(鹰) to see whether or not the rooster thought it was alone. Roosters may make loud calls to warn nearby chickens when a hawk flies above. If they’re alone, they remain quiet.⑤ First, the scientists helped the roosters get used to being in a closed -- in space and having a mirror around. After some time, they took the mirror out and ran several tests by making a hawk shadow appear above the bird and watching how it reacted.⑥ When there was no mirror, the roosters reacted as usual. They called out when they were near another rooster, but remained quiet after the other rooster was taken out by the scientists.⑦ Then, the mirror was put back. When a rooster could see itself in the mirror, it remained silent even with the hawk shadow above it. Later, the scientists put the other rooster behind the mirror. It still didn’t make any sound.⑧ The results show that the roosters knew they were seeing themselves in the mirror, and not other roosters. That shows that the Mark Test may not be a good test of whether an animal can identify itself.⑨ The scientists hope their results will encourage other scientists to look for better ways of testing how smart animals are. It may turn out that some kinds of animals are more intelligent than people though.30. What is the first step for the scientists to do the Mark Test?A. Paying attention to a mark,B. Putting a mark on animal.C. Feeding an animal some food.D. Placing an animal before a mirror.31. Which of the following can be put in __▲__ in paragraph 3?A. As a result, they need a better way.B. However, some scientists did another test on roosters.C. Until recently, only one kind of bird had passed the test.D. But some scientists believe it doesn’t work well for all animals.32. According to paragraphs ⑤-⑦, which of the following shows the correct order of the second test?A. b-a-e-c-dB. b-e-a-c-dC. a-b-d-e-cD. a-e-b-d-c33. Which part of the magazine is the passage most probably from?A. Animal WorldB. Quiz TimeC. Science DiscoveryD. Book Review(C)A recent study says volunteering can be good for health. Maybe it could help with some problems the youth are facing these days.Kids and teenagers who volunteer aren’t just helping others. They might also be helping themselves. The new study found that volunteering through school or other groups is connected with better health among children and teens.Kids who took part in voluntary work were 34% more likely(可能的) to be in very good physical health than those who didn’t, the study found. And those who volunteered were 66% more likely to be considered doing well in general. Kids aged 12 and older who volunteered were 25% less likely to have anxiety than those who didn’t. The findings come from information provided by the parents of some 50,000 kids in the United States ages 6 to 17. About half of those parents reported that their kids did voluntary work.The result of the study comes at an important time for youth health. In recent years, more and more young people suffer from anxiety. More than 40% of high school students reported experiencing feelings of sadness or hopelessness in 2021. So there’s a clear need for convenient and useful methods of solving this problem. Giving back to the society may be one choice.

No matter which country you visit, no matter which grade you are in, you may not learn art,geography, chemistry or Chinese, but you always learn math. Why is th is so? How come somany students hate math, and yet cannot avoid learning it in school?Jenny Sanders, a high school student in California, asks, "What good do we get from learning math? We can use computers to compute numbers, and we can use computers to store information.I think learning math at school is a waste of time."However, there is much more to math than just learning to add and subtract(减) numbers. In fact, math is not so much about calculation(计算) as it is about learning to think logically(逻辑地)and solving problems. Of course, Jenny was right that we can use computers to docalculations, but how would we even know how to use the computer if we can't think logically?In short, computers are only tools when solving problems.For example, imagine you are a cook and must serve dinner to 100 guests. How s hould you divide your resources(资源) so that you can get the job done most efficiently (高效地)? In situations like this, the ability to think logically will get you to a reasonable answer and solve yourproblem.46. What does Jenny Sanders think of learning math?A. Interesting.B. Boring.C. Useless.D. Useful47. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. 90% of the students hate learning math.B. Students can learn math well with computers.C. Math can do calculations and store information.D. 9 students don't like math.48. What does the writer want to tell us?A. Math is just learning to add and subtract numbers.B. Math can be good for both our body and our mind.C. Math helps us think logically and solve problems.D. Math can improve your cooking skills.B"Homestay is a form of study abroad program. It allows the visitor to rent a room from alocal (当地的) family to better understand the local lifestyle. It also helps to improve thevisitor's language ability, " said a teacher during a school meeting last term. "Students whowish to learn more about foreign cultures or to get foreign experience should join this kindof holiday. I am sure you won't be disappointed(失望的)."After this special meeting, I always thought about this kind of holiday. Last month, I hada chance at last to go on such a holiday with some of my schoolmates and we went to London, aplace where I had wanted to go since years ago.As we were still young, we had a group leader who planned things for us and looked afterus. After we got to London, we went to stay with different families. I was lucky that my hostfamily(寄宿家庭) was a white couple who h ad a daughter about my a ge. They treated me a s a daughter of their family during my stay there. They were interested in me and I learnt a lot of thingsfrom them, too.The holiday was filled with activities every day. After breakfast, a local teacher wouldcome to take us in his car. Then we would have classes or go on a sight-seeing trip to different places of interest like the Big Ben, the London Bridge, and the Buckingham Palace. We would goback to our own homes after the activities.The holiday was a valuable experience for me. I enjoyed every minute of it. Yet, time really flew fast. Three weeks later, we had to leave "home" for Hong Kong.49. In the "homestay" program, a visitor can_______.A. learn more about holidaysB. understand his culture betterC. improve the language abilityD. take part in foreign meetings50. The writer had wanted to visit London since_______.A. last monthB. years agoC. the special meetingD. her stay abroad51. The group leader should_______.A. make plans for the familyB. take care of the studentsC. stay with different familiesD. rent rooms to the students52. From the passage, we know that the writer_______ in London.A. wished to stay a little longerB. spent three weeks in her homeC. had classes in many interesting placesD. helped the teacher take the students in a carCA man came back home from work late, tired, to find his six-year-old son waiting for himat the door."Daddy, how much money do you make an hour?""If you want to know, I make $20 an hour.""Oh, " the little boy replied, with his head down He thought for a moment, looked up andsaid. "Daddy, could you lend me $10?"The father was furious, "If you asked for money to buy a toy or some other rubbish, thengo straight to your room and think why you are being so selfish!"The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. After about an hour or so, thefather calmed down, and started to think, "Maybe he really needs to buy something and he didn'task for money very often." So he went to the little boy's room."Sorry!

Somebody mentions (提到 ) hard-work, others suggest knowledge, love and luck.If you arrange the 26 English letters alphabetically(按-r母表IYJ顺序)and use numbers to represent each of them, for example, I for a 2 for b, 3 for c..., you can change an English wordinto a number. So hard-work becomes 8+1+1 8+4+23+15+1 8+11=98, meaning 98 is its mark; knowledge:11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5=96.while love:12+15+22+5=54, and luck:12+2l+3+11=47, a small mark.None of these words can give one a full mark.What about money or prayer(祈祷)?They can't, either.Then what else? Don't be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life,when you change your way of looking at things or doing things,or your attitude(态度).Yes,attitude is the word.
