From behind the bar, Blachut had a goodview of the Lech river below, in which many people were cooling their feet. The water is very coldat this time of year, and it runs quickly.Among those enjoying the cooling water were a mother and her two teenage daughters.They were playing with an inflatable tube( 充气轮胎)by the riverbank, when suddenly the girlslost their footing and fell into the river. It all happened so fast. The girls caught the tube, which their mother was sitting in, pulling her into the river, too. Now all three were being carried away, shouting, “Help! Help!”Blachut looked up from his busy work when he heard the shouts. Then he found the three women not far away, flapping their arms, trying to catch anything. Without thinking, Blachut ran down to the river and jumped into the cold water. All he wanted to do was rescue()them.As Blachut got closer to them,he could tell that the mother seemed to be in the most trouble; her head was now out of sight. At once, Blachut went down under the mother, pushing her upward and towards the bank. Then an onlooker()got close to grab the woman's hand, pulling her to the land.Blachut knew he needed to rescue the two daughters, who were now further down the river. He jumped into the water again and succeeded in getting one out in the same way he did her mother, while the other was saved by another onlooker.Several onlookers expressed their admiration for Blachut following the accident. “The whole rescue only took two or three minutes,” he said, adding that it was not a big de al. Actually, it was a job very well done.19.What was Blachut doing when the three women fell into the water?A.Enjoying the beautiful scene.B.Watching the customers eating.C.Working busily in the restaurant.D.Cooling his feet in the river.20.What does the underlined word “grab” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A.Check.B.Control.C.Shake.D.Catch.21.What can be inferred from Blachut's words?A.He was proud of saving the women.B.He thought he just did something normal.C.He felt sorry for the accident.D.He decided to work harder than before.22.What's the best title for the passage?A.A Cold Water RescueB.A Hard-working ManC.An Unlucky FamilyD.A Highly Paid JobCTaihu Tunnel(隧道)10.79 kilometers long and 43.6 meters wide, has been the longest underwater tunnel in China.It stands out as one of the “2022 China's Top 100 Buildings in the New Era”. When building Taihu Tunnel, the project team faced many challenges, such as high safety risks and time limit. To deal with them, they made workable plans. They divided the tunnel construction(建造)into 19 parts. The construction of each part mainly took four steps.Step 1 Remove. The team built a cofferdam to remove water from the area, so the workers could go inside and do their work in dry conditions.Step 2 Clear. The team dug deep into the lake bed,and cleared the soil and stones out in order to make space for the next step.Step 3 Build. The team built the floor,walls and roof of the tunnel in this step. They used high-quality building materials to waterproof the tunnel.Step 4 Backfill. The team put the soil and stones back. Then this part of the tunnel was buried deep down the lake bed.The construction of the 19 parts was streamlined. The project team used a new method. The work group of each step moved to the next part and repeated their work after they finished the work in the previous part. Different work groups co-operated well with each other. From part to part, the construction started from the opposite ends, and got connected somewhere in the middle. The construction took about four years to complete, shorter than people had expected.The drivers' safety is fully considered in Taihu Tunnel. There are 200,000 LED lights on the ceiling of the tunnel. They show vivid pictures of blue sky, starry night and so on. The pictures can help drivers fight tiredness and travel through the tunnel safely. Besides, there are two systems in the tunnel. The police can check the traffic situation through a monitoring system. If traffic accidents happen, the police can give instructions and warn drivers in the tunnel over an audio system to prevent further accidents.The construction of Taihu Tunnel shows great value in engineering and the tunnel brings much convenience to people living nearby.23.Which picture shows how a “cofferdam” works?24.What do we know about the construction of Taihu Tunnel?A.It was divided into four parts.B.It look more time than people had expected.C.It started from the middle of the lakeD.It was completed by using a streamlined method.25.What can we learn from Paragraph 7?A.Pictures in the tunnel can help keep drivers safe.B.Drivers can control the LED lights in the t unnel.C.The police can warn drivers through a monitoring system.D.An audio system can help drivers check the traffic situation.26.What is the main purpose of the passage?A.To advise people to protect Taihu Tunnel.B.To introduce the construction of Taihu Tunnel.C.To share the advantages brought by Taihu Tunnel.D.To tell the difficulties of constructing Taihu T unnel.DDoes life sometimes seem to be full of impossible problems? How many times, for example, do you find yourself saying things like “I really don't understand this Maths problem”, or “I can't get into the school team”? Well, maybe it's time to introduce yourself to the power of “yet”. By adding this simple word, you can change everything. “I really don't understand this Maths problem yet.” “I can't get into the school team yet.” Suddenly, the impossible becomes possible. You can imagine those things happening.I read about a school that has changed the way it marks its students' exams. The school find out that the old pass/fail system wasn't helping students' motivation(积极性)If you passed, then great, but those students who didn't pass often felt like failures. So now students who don't pass the exams will not see a big red F on their papers; they see a “Not yet”instead. That way the students feel that they are on a journey. They haven't reached the end, but they know that they are going the right way.This kind of thinking is part of what experts call “having a growth mindset”. People with a growth mindset don't concentrate on failure. They aren't worried by not getting things right the first time and are happy to keep trying until they do. They enjoy the challenge and believe they can change. In contrast, people who just focus on the failure have what the experts call “a fixed mindset”. These people are always worried about failure and are happy to give up when things don't go right. They don't think that they are able to change. Clearly, it is better to have a growth mindset than a fixed mindset.But don't worry if you think that you have a fixed mindset. . Remember that it all starts with questioning the things you believe about yourself. Stop believing that you can't or you haven't and realize that you just can't or haven't yet. Once you start doing this, you'll wonder why you didn't do it before. It's one small but very powerful word.27.Why does the writer give the example in Paragraph 2?A.To express a feeling.B.To describe a problem.C.To show the result.D.To support the topic.28.According to the passage, which one of the following has “a growth mindset”?A.Jack got an “A” in the exam. He was quite happy to tell his parents.B.D avid failed in a competition, but he stays confident and keeps trying.C.J enny found it hard to work out the Maths problem, so she gave it up.D.E mma was refused by school team. She didn't want to have another try.29.Which of the following can be put into .A.Experts will help you grow up healthily in mind.B.You can train yourself to develop a growth mindset.C.Everyone has his own advantages and disadvantages.D.You can change everything by adding the small word “yet”.30.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A.The Power of “Yet”B.Two Different MindsetsC.Nothing Is ImpossibleD.On the Way to Success第二节（共5 小题，每小题 1 分，满分5 分）阅读下列短文，在空白处填入与短文内容相符的信息，完成阅读摘记。
