For more than three years, I have been making movements with the universe, traveling from location to location at seemingly random intervals.A friend of mine posted a Facebook status asking if anybody was interested in a job teaching English in China. So I jumped on a coming plane. Walking into my first class, I was bombed by 16 strange children who couldn’t understand a single word out of my mouth. When I walked out of my last class, six months later, I had made a personal connection with them. Some of my students could barely speak Chinese or English. But somehow, through determination and force, we connected.Every class was not only a lesson in English, but in good fellowship, being a role model, being a parent, and being a friend. I became a father to some, an older brother to others. I was loved and adored, feared and hated. I had to learn discipline, and not only how to deal it out, but how to discipline and conduct myself as a role model. But in between the discipline, I had to make learning a fun experience. And they forgave me when I yelled or got upset. And when they threw temper or bruised their knee or missed their mommy, I forgave them, kissed their bruises better, and gave them a shoulder to cry on.Teaching English in China is, by far, the most emotionally rewarding and fulfilling thing I’ve ever challenged myself to do. I have walked away from this job with a softened heart, knowing that I have made a difference in so many lives. I want that. I want my teachings to be reciprocal because they taught me how to unconditionally open my heart and how to be a more 1oving and patient person.24．What can we learn about the writer before he came to China?A．He didn’t have a fixed job.B．He was a professional writer.C．He worked in a travel agency.D．He taught in a language school.25．What was the situation like when the author met his students for the first time?A．Hard.B．Exciting.C．Touching.D．Inspiring.26．What can we infer about the author from Paragraph 3?A．He was casual and patient.B．He was responsible but sensitive.C．He was cautious but bad-tempered.D．He was self-reflective and considerate.27．What does the underlined word “reciprocal” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?A．Beneficial.B．Interacted.C．Encouraging.D．Acceptable.CThey asked Katherine Johnson for the moon, and she gave it to them. With little more than a pencil, a slide rule and one of the finest mathematical minds in the country, Mrs. Johnson, who died at 101 on Monday, calculated the precise trajectories (轨道)that would let Apollo 11 land on the moon in 1969 and, after Neil Armstrong's history—making moonwalk, let it return to Earth.Yet throughout Mrs. Johnson's 33 years in NASA and for decades afterward, almost no one knew her name.Mrs. Johnson was one of several hundred strictly educated, supremely capable yet largely unrecognized women who, well before the modem feminist movement, worked as NASA mathematicians. But it was not only her sex that kept her long unsung. For some years at midcentury, the black women were subjected to a double segregation (隔离)：They were kept separate from the much large group of white women who in turn were segregated from the agency's male mathematicians and engineers.Mrs. Johnson broke barriers at NASA．In old age, Mrs. Johnson became the most celebrated of black women who served as mathematicians for the space agency. Their story was told in the 2016 Hollywood film "Hidden Figures," which was nominated for three Oscars, including best picture.In 2017, NASA dedicated a building in her honor. That year, The Washington Post described her as “the most high - profile of the computers” — “computers ” being the term originally used to describe Mrs. Johnson and her colleagues, much as “typewriters” were used in the 19th century to represent professional typists.She “helped our nation enlarge the frontiers of space,” NASA's administrator, Jim Bridenstine, said in a statement on Monday, “even as she made huge steps that also opened doors for women and people of color in the universal human quest to explore space.”As Mrs. Johnson herself was fond of saying, her tenure (任期) at Langley — from 1953 until her retirement in 1986 — was “a time when computers wore skirts.”28．What is the function of the first paragraph?A．To present the Apollo moon mission.B．To stress Mrs. Johnson's contributionsC．To honour Neil Armstrong's moonwalk.D．To mourn a great woman—Mrs. Johnson.29．What does the underlined word "barriers” in Paragraph 4 refer to ? A．Gender inequality and color line.B．Mrs. Johnson's unrecognized talents.C．The agency's male mathematicians and engineers.D．The hardships before the modem feminist movement.30．Why were Mrs. Johnson and her colleagues described as "computers"? A．Because they used computers to keep their work secret.B．Because they were the agency's human calculators'C．Because computer systems engaged them deeply.D．Because they opened a door to outer space.31．What can we learn from Mrs. Johnson's experience?A．Try things that may not work.B．The world awaits our discovery.C．Use knowledge to wipe out ignorance 'D．Never be limited by the labels attached by others.DBurning coal to provide energy adds planet-warming carbon dioxide, or CO2, to Earth’s atmosphere. As the planet heats up, experts warn that simply cutting greenhouse gas emissions (排放) will not be enough to avoid possibly disastrous levels of global warming. CO2must also be obliterated from the atmosphere, they say.Existing experimental machines that remove CO2directly from the air are too costly to be widely used. But a new report from the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine says effective carbon-removal technology already exists. It is not costly, or even complex science. It’s forests.The report explains that planting trees and overseeing forests are cost-effective ways to clean the air. They also work well across large areas. Forests used to cover much of the Appalachian Mountains in the eastern United States. In the state of West Virginia, a kind of mining known as strip mining (露天开采) left the land there bare, without trees. Now experts are working to bring back the forests that once covered much of the state.West Virginia’s Monongahela National Forest is home to a rare group of trees. They are called virgin (原始的) woods; they have never been touched by humans. Shane Jones, a biologist with the U.S. Forest Service, says the trees there were missed by mistake when the surrounding forest was cut down for wood many years ago. That mistake turned out to be a good thing; red spruce (云杉) forests such as those in the Monongahela are extremely effective at taking CO2 out of the atmosphere and locking it into the soil.Experts say, nature offers powerful tools to fight climate change.32．What does the underlined word “obliterated” mean in Paragraph 1? A．Prevented.B．Cleared.C．Produced.D．Stored.33．What’s the advantage of forests compared with the existing experimental machines?A．They release more oxygen.B．They clear more CO2.C．They save more money.D．They absorb CO2 faster.34．Why does the author mention West Virginia in Paragraph 3?A．To prove the place is unsuitable for human survival.B．To stress planting trees is practical for clean air.C．To indicate trees are difficult to live on such poor soil.D．To show people in the state are now living a hard life.35．What can we know about the red spruce trees?A．They can only be found in Monongahela National Forest.B．They were given the name virgin woods for beauty.C．They were cut down for wood by farmers.D．They could store carbon dioxide in the soil.第二节（共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
