The Department Chair told me that I would teach a writing class. I felt very confident.It was my first class. When I entered the classroom, I was surprised. These kids looked too tall and mature（成熟的）to be high school students! I still didn’t have a list of names, so I started by talking with them and asking questions. Everything was fine until I noticed a tall boy eating a piece of cake. Rule 1, clearly written on the board, was “NO FOOD OR DRINK IN CLASS”. I got a little mad and asked him to read the rule out aloud. He did so and he got mad too!I asked him, “Did you understand what you read?” This made him even madder.“Yes, I did.”“Well, then, what were you doing just now?”“I was eating a piece of cake,” he looked at me angrily.“Well, get up, go outside and throw the cake away.”And then both of us made a mistake. He said, “Here, I don’t even want it.” Then he put the piece of cake in my hand. The icing（糖衣）of the cake went among my fingers, making a real mess. I was so mad that I hit the cake on his hair!The class started laughing and clapping. Somebody got up, went to the board and wrote “Teacher - 1; Mark - 0”. I didn’t know whether I was supposed to laugh or not, but I couldn’t help it. And then, Mark got up and left.The story was all over the school later.

Besides his famous stories, he also wrote many influential articles about the living conditions of Chinese people.Born in 1881 to a wealthy family, Lu Xun had a happy childhood. In 1893, however, his father, a senior government official, was put into prison for taking money. At the same time, his father became seriously ill. From that time on, his family was no longer accepted by their relatives and friends. These early experiences greatly influenced his writing.By the time Lu Xun arrived in Nanjing to study at university in 1899, he already believed that Chinese society had to change and become modern. In 1902 he went to study in Japan. There he began writing articles for several Chinese student magazines. He showed a gift for writing and translating and he even wrote several books, although none was popular. He returned to China in 1909 because he was in need of money.After working for several years as a teacher in Beijing, Lu Xun again returned to writing. In 1918, he wrote his famous short story Diary of a Madman. It was the first Chinese novelpublished using the everyday language that people spoke, which helped make it a great success. This, together with his novel The True Story of Ah Q (1921) made Lu Xun a leading Chinese writer. Although successful, Lu Xun still worried greatly about China’s future. In 1927, he moved to Shanghai and gave up writing stories in order to devote himself to what he called “pen warfare”. He only wrote articles which called on the people to fight against the government. For this, the government stopped him from publishing any more books. He was forced to write his articles using false names.Since his death in 1936, Lu Xun’s importance and influence have grown. Today, many of his writings are included in school textbooks and his works are read by millions of people around the world.33．Which of the following greatly influenced Lu Xun’s writing according to the passage?A．The people he met in Japan.B．The experiences in his early life.C．Working as a teacher in Beijing.D．His father’s being put into prison. 34．According to the passage, why was Lu Xun’s story Diary of a Madman so popular?A．It was based on Lu Xun’s diary.B．It was the first novel to use everyday language.C．Its story took place in modern times.D．It was written using a western style. 35．The underlined word “This” (paragraph 4) refers to ________.A．The success of Diary of a Madman B．The use of everyday languageC．The first Chinese novel D．The True Story of Ah Q36．In what order did these events take place in Lu Xun’s life?a. The government stopped him from publishing books.b. He wrote Diary of a Madman.c. His father became ill.d. He moved to Shanghai.e. His writings were put into textbooks.A．c﹣a﹣b﹣d﹣e B．c﹣b﹣d﹣a﹣eC．a﹣c﹣d﹣b﹣e D．a﹣d﹣b﹣c﹣eIn the past, if you want to learn something new, you might have to go to school or some other places to attend a class. But nowadays, there is no need for you to do so because of the appearance of the online learning. Last year, the online learning market was worth $166.5billion. In the latest survey of Global Shapers, among 25,000 young people across the world, 77.84% of them reported having taken online courses.However, the growth of online education has not been without challenges. Since its early start in the 1960s, online education has been always criticized（批评）by some people for being short of quality control, especially for being short of high-quality teachers. It’s also been said that online learning keeps students away from some of the advantages of being in a classroom, such as the communication between the teacher and the students face to face. Besides, being in a classroom doesn’t always demand the Internet connection and the electricity supply.Regardless of these concerns, online education has made great improvements in recent years. For starters, more and more schools of higher learning have introduced or improved their online education platforms. And a number of providers have also turned to user ratings （评价）. “Star teacher”, for example, has become a popular rating method in some countries. It commonly uses star symbols to show users’ opinions about teachers and their lessons, which helps good teachers stand out from others.Such progress seems to have reduced the doubt about the quality of teaching, and 40.56% of people in the survey of Global Shapers have said online education is as strong as traditional learning in a classroom.The development of education technology has also made online education become easier to get and more controllable than ever before. What a student needs are a computer, an Internet connection, and some basic IT skills. As for losing some advantages of a traditional classroom, online education has been making up for this through its flexibility（灵活性）and low cost. Besides, some people say that online education has greatly helped make easier to get, thus achieving the goal of “education for all”.37．What does the writer want to show by using the numbers in Paragraph 1?A．Online education has been popular recently.B．People can make a lot of money online.C．There are different kinds of online classes.D．Online learning is very expensive for people.38．What does the underlined word “demand” in Paragraph 2 mean?A．Hope.B．Cause.C．Change.D．Require. 39．How can we understand “Star teacher” mentioned in Paragraph 3?A．A teacher having great knowledge of stars.B．A website for users to choose their lessons.C．A way to show if a teacher is good at teaching.D．A teacher having taught online for a long time.40．What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?A．The advantages of online education.B．The disadvantages of online education.C．The challenges traditional teaching faces.D．The skills for attending the online classes.四、阅读还原5选5time playing sports?” To these people, I politely say, “You have not discovered the fun of sports!”Let me tell you a game I played recently and share the ups and downs of the game with you. It was a basketball championship game (冠军赛) in our city, and a lot of people were watching. Our parents and friends were there to cheer us on. 42When the game was nearly over, our best player called us together and said, “ 43 Let’s do our best to score and if we don’t win, at least we know that we have tried our best.”This little speech said it all. Why? Because I feel it really doesn’t matter if we lose as long as we have tried our best. 44 Well, in the last minute of the game, we did score and tied (打成平局) with the other team! The coach (教练) said he had never seen a team try harder than us.45 Choose a sport that you are really interested in and then stick with it. Your body will thank you and your mind will be ready to work better afterwards.A．Either we score now or the game is over.B．That is a life lesson that sports can teach us.C．So my advice to you is playing sports regularly.D．We wanted to make a good impression on them.E．They say that sports make them sweat (出汗) and smell bad.五、短文首字母填空Dear students,As we all know, good health is important for success in the exams, so I am writing to give you some a 46 . First of all, I think you need to get up early and go to bed early to get e 47 sleep. As a saying goes “You are what you eat”, I suggest you have a b 48 diet and avoid eating junk food these days. Although you’ll be very busy with your study, you should still find time to take some sports, which will actually help you i 49 from time to time.

One day late in the afternoon, while working to support his family, he heard a cry for help coming from a nearby pond.He dropped his tools and ran to the pond. There, up to his neck in the water, was a terrified boy, crying and struggling to free himself. Obviously the boy did not know how to swim. Fleming jumped into the pond and quickly swam toward the boy. He saved the boy from what could have been a terrible death.The next day, a very cool carriage pulled up to the Scotsman’s house. A well-dressed nobleman stepped out and introduced himself as the father of the boy Fleming saved the day before.“I want to repay you,” said the nobleman. “You saved my son’s life.”“No, I can’t accept any payment for what I did,” the Scottish farmer replied, waving off the offer.At that moment, the farmer’s own son came to the door of the farmhouse, confused by who was visiting them.“Is that your son?” the nobleman asked.“Yes,” the farmer replied proudly.“I’ll make you a deal. Let me take him with me. I promise you that I will give him a good education. If the boy is anything like his father, he’ll grow up to be a man you can be proud of.”And he did. In time, Fleming’s son graduated from St. Mary’s Hospital Medical School in London and went on to become a famous doctor.Years later, the nobleman’s son became seriously ill. Who saved him?

Gwendolyn Brooks wrote hundreds of poems during her lifetime. She was known around the world for using poetry to increase understanding about black culture in America.Her poems described conditions among the poor, racial inequality and drug use in the black community. She also wrote poems about the struggles of black women. But her skill was more than her ability to write about struggling black people. She was an expert at the language of poetry. She combined traditional European poetry styles with the African American experience.In her early poetry, Gwendolyn Brooks wrote about the South Side of Chicago. TheSouth Side of Chicago is where many black people live. In her poems, the South Side is called Bronzeville. It was “A Street in Bronzeville” that gained the attention of literary experts in 1945. Critics praised her poetic skill and her powerful descriptions of the black experience during the time. The Bronzeville poems were her first published collection.In 1950, Gwendolyn Brooks became the first African American to win the Pulitzer Prize for Literature. She won the prize for her second book of poems called “Annie Allen”. “Annie Allen” is a collection of poetry about the life of Bronzeville girl as a daughter, a wife and a mother. She experiences loneliness, loss, death and being poor. Ms. Brooks said that winning the prize changed her life.Her next work was a novel written in 1953 called “Maud Martha”. “Maud Martha” received little notice when it was first published. But now it is considered an important work by some critics. Its main ideas about the difficult life of many women are popular among female writers today.In some of her poems, Gwendolyn Brooks described how what people see in life is affected by who they are. One example is this poem, “Corners on the Curing Sky”.By the end of the 1960s, Gwendolyn Brooks’ poetry expanded from the everyday experiences of people in Bronzeville. She wrote about a writer and dealt with important political issues.30．What does the passage mainly talk about?A．The life of Gwendolyn Brooks.B．The poems of Gwendolyn Brooks.C．The understanding about black culture.D．The struggles of black women.31．The author develops the passage mainly by ________ .A．providing examplesB．using statisticsC．comparing opinionsD．describing her experiences.32．Which is the correct order according to Gwendolyn Brooks’ lifetime?a.

However, that’s not the end for the whale. It has a lot to give to other sea animals after death.When a whale dies, it quickly falls to the bottom of the ocean floor. There, the whale body provides food to deep-sea animals. The remains can last for several years and create a complex ecosystem(生态系统) called a whale fall — an “oasis” of life in the deep sea.Chinese scientists found a whale fall for the first time in the South China Sea during a deep-sea exploration carried out by oceanic research vessel Tansuo-1, which finished its exploration on April 2, 2020. Tansuo-1 carried the manned submersible (潜水器) Shenhai Yongshi, which is able to dive to a depth of 4,500 meters.The whale fall ecosystem can exist in the deep ocean because great pressure and cold temperatures there prevent the body from disappearing too quickly. But the depth also makes it hard for scientists to discover them. There are fewer than 50 known whale falls in the world.The whale fall in the South China Sea is about three meters long.
