21、A six-year-old longing to keep a unicorn in her backyard figured she’d get the hard part out of the way first.
Last November, Madeline wrote a letter to the Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control with a straightforward request. “Dear LA County, I would like your approval if I can have a unicorn in my backyard if I can find one. Please send me a letter in response.”
Director Mayeda replied two weeks later. The department does in fact license unicorns, she said, under certain conditions. Those include polishing the unicorn’s horn at least once a month with a soft cloth, feeding it watermelon at least once a week, covering it with only nontoxic and biodegradable sparkles and giving it regular access to sunlight, moonbeams and rainbows. And, because unicorns are indeed very rare to find, the department is also giving Madeline a toy unicorn to keep her company during her search, as a token of appreciation.
“It is always rewarding to hear from young people who thoughtfully consider the requirements of providing a loving home for animals,” Mayeda wrote in the letter. “I like your sense of responsible pet ownership to seek permission in advance to keep a unicorn in Los Angeles County.”
Mayeda told the Washington Post that this is the first time the department has received a request for a license for a unicorn or any mythical creature. They were impressed with the first-grader for wanting to ask permission in the first place, and doing her research to work out how to go about that. She and her colleagues deal with a lot of “life-and-death” issues on the job, whether that’s seeing cases of animal abuse or animals hurting people or making decisions about having to put down dangerous or sick animals. So Madeline’s letter has considerably brightened their spirits, and she is due to visit the department this week to discuss her unicorn license application. Safe to say, she’s in for a magical surprise.
【1】Why did Madeline write the letter?
A.To apply to visit a unicorn.
B.To learn to provide animal care.
C.To ask permission to keep a pet.
D.To figure out how to find a unicorn.
【2】What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A.Her application was disapproved.
B.Requirements should be met for the license.
C.She was presented with a live unicorn.
D.Guidance was given for her search.
【3】Which of the following best describes Mayeda?
A.Imaginative.
B.Sensitive.
C.Flexible.
D.Convincing.
【4】Why does the department think the letter “has brightened their spirits”?
A.Because it is the first application letter for a pet.
B.Because animal protection is a life-and-death issue.
C.Because they are worn out with their daily work.
D.Because they are touched with the girl’s deeds.
22、It’s no secret that the senior years in high school are the best of the four. Finally, you’re at the top of the tower and all the lower grades look up to you. They are your last years of compulsory education, and afterwards you’re free to do with your life as you please.
By senior years, you’ve probably already found your ideal set of friends and have made many new ones. Now that you have the traditionally tough junior years out of the way, be happy in your senior years! Basically, make the most of high school, because it will affect your future career and life. I can’t stress this enough. After these years are over, this whole part of your school life is over, and you won’t get it back. High school is awesome because of the balance between responsibilities and freedoms.
If you did well in your junior years, you just need to keep it up. So in your senior years, take classes that are made up of what you’ve been taking. If you’ve been taking a lot of college preparation classes, keep it up and take some of your senior classes too. Don’t just drop down to a bunch of PE and art classes—this looks terrible.
Everyone has friends. You know the people you talk to in class and probably get along with them quite well, but you never really hang out with them outside the classroom. Try to build stronger friendships with them if you can. Getting people together from your class to see a movie or something is great fun and not nearly as difficult as you would think.
【1】What can be the best title for the passage?
A.Happy Life in High School
B.What We Learn in High School

23、 Social media is taking over our lives: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and now, TikTok. These social media platforms have transformed from a way to stay connected to an industry where even kids can make money of their posts. While this may seem like another opportunistic innovation, its really full of hidden false realities.
The median income(中位收入) recorded in the United States of America was about $63,000 in 2018. TikTokers with over a million followers can make up to $30,000 a month ---$360,000 a year. They are making more than the average person trying to feed their family and keep a roof over their heads, simply by posting a 15-second video.
Not only is it an overpaid “job”, it also promotes undeserved admiration from viewers and a false sense of reality. Many of these famous TikTokers are still teens, and the effects of fame at such an early stage in life might cause issues later in life, such as mental influenced by what they are watching. They can put a false sense of self-value into who they look up to and what they represent: money, fame, being considered conventionally attractive.
While TikTok has become a great tool for marketing, it’s important to understand how this content affects young viewers. If we’re constantly consuming content that shows us all we need to do to be successful is be conventionally attractive and post a 15-second video featuring a new dance, it will challenge our knowledge of what really makes someone successful and will in turn affect our individual work ethics(伦理). What about the people who miss birthdays and family holidays due to their jobs and aren’t getting paid nearly as much as these TikTokers?
Richard Colyer, president and creator of Metaphor, Inc., had his own view on this issue. “It sounds great that kids can make money for doing the latest dance moves in a 15-second video, but we should feed the minds of kids and not just their bank accounts. TikTok can be great if used properly. Money alone is not good, technology alone is not good and connectedness can be bad if it’s only online.”
【1】What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A.social networking
B.staying connected to the Internet.
C.a job offered by TikTok.
D.making money on social media.
【2】Which is the possible influence of TikTok on its young users?
A.They tend to live an adult life too soon.
B.They are forced to pay for certain services.
C.They are likely to develop false values
D.They may abandon other social media
【3】What can we infer from Richard Colyer’s comments?
A.Young TiKTokers should be banned from making money.
B.TikTok can be a positive influence if teens employ it wisely.
C.It is better to involve education on investment in TikTok videos.
D.Contents of videos need checking before their release online.
【4】Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A.A Job Vs An Entertainment
B.Join Young TikTokers
C.TikTok---A Mine of Money
D.Say No to TiKTok
