21、   Why doesn’t the Leaning Tower of Pisa fall over during its over 800 years history? To understand their situation, it's helpful to understand why the tower tilted in the first place.

In the 12th century, the wealthy maritime republic of Pisa set about turning its cathedral square into a magnificent landmark. In 1173, construction began on a free-standing bell tower. The engineers and architects of the time were masters of their craft but knew far less about the ground they stood on. Less than five years later, the tower's southern side was already underground. If workers added more weight, the pressure from upper stories would sink the structure and fatally increase the lean. But construction stopped at the fourth story for nearly a century, which allowed the soil to settle.

When construction began again in 1272, workers compensated for the tower's minor tilt by making the next few floors taller on the southern side. But the weight of the extra masonry made that side sink even deeper. By the time they completed the seventh floor and bell chamber, the angle of the tilt was 1.6 degrees.

In 1838, engineers dug a walkway around the base to examine the sunken foundation. But removing the supporting sand only worsened the tilt. In 1935, the Italian Corps of Engineers injected mortar to strengthen the base. However, the mortar wasn't evenly distributed throughout the foundation, resulting in another sudden drop and moving the tower closer to its tipping point.

With exact data and new computing technology, in 1992, the construction team drilled diagonal tunnels to remove 38 cubic meters of soil from under the tower's north end. Then, they temporarily counterbalanced the structure, with 600 tons of lead ingots before anchoring the base with steel cables. More than six centuries after its construction, the tower was finally straightened to a tilt of about four degrees.

Today the tower stands at 55– or 56– meters tall, and it should remain stable for at least 300 years as a monument to the beauty of imperfection.

【1】The passage is developed mainly in the form of ______.

A.time and events B.definition and description

C.contrast and conclusion D.examples and statements

【2】What does the underlined phrase “compensated for” in paragraph 3 probably mean?

A.arranged for B.made up for C.called for D.accounted for

【3】What has finally led the tower to approach closer to its tipping point?

A.Engineers’ misjudgment of the soil under the tower

B.Making the next few floors taller on the southern side

C.Removing the supporting sand from the sunken foundation

D.The unevenly distributed mortar throughout the foundation

【4】What can be a suitable title for the passage?

A.Who is to blame for the leaning?

B.Why doesn't the Leaning Tower of Pisa fall over?

C.How did the Leaning Tower of Pisa get its name?

D.Will the Leaning Tower of Pisa fall over？

22、   Plants on Earth have grown for hundreds of millions of years, yet President Donald Trump’s pick to lead his new climate team insists that they need more carbon dioxide (CO2) to boom.

Princeton physicist and carbon dioxide-advocate William Happer has been selected to head the brand new Presidential Committee on Climate Security. The atomic scientist, who achieved recognition for his work on atomic collisions (原子碰撞), not climate science, declared that the planet’s atmosphere needs significantly more CO2, which is reported to speed up climate change. Happer said plants use CO2 to live and more CO2 is actually a benefit to the Earth. He also stressed that Earth is experiencing a “CO2 starvation”, and concludes that “If plants could vote, they would vote for coal.”

Earth and plant scientists, however, find Happer’s insistence that the plant kingdom would benefit from increased CO2 wrong-headed and it lacks evidence. For example, Earth’s CO2 levels have increased sharply in the last century, and are now at their highest levels in at least 800,000 years—though other measurements show CO2 levels are higher than they’ve been in 15 million years. “The idea that increased CO2 is universally beneficial ‘to plants’ is very misguided,” Jill Anderson, an evolutionary ecologist specializing in plant populations, said in an interview. Data shows the evolution of global average temperature and CO2 concentration from 1850 to 2019. Though 2019 is a bit cooler than recent years, it still is one of the warmest years ever and lies close to the trend line of global warming.

Both independent academic organizations and government agencies around different parts of the world concluded more CO2 will bring many negative impacts to plant environments. And they added that “If someone is going to claim it is good, it’s necessary for them to show evidence.”

【1】Why does Happer think plants need more CO2?

A. Plants vote for more CO2. B. CO2 speeds up climate change.

C. Plants need more CO2 to live. D. CO2 is actually a benefit to the Earth.

【2】What can be inferred from paragraph 3?

A. 2019 is a bit warmer than recent years.

B. CO2 levels must be the highest in history.

C. The plant kingdom must benefit from increased CO2.

D. There are adequate evidence to support Happer’s insistence.

【3】What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph probably refer to?

A. More CO2. B. The plant.

C. The world. D. The US government.

【4】The author’s attitude in writing this passage can be described as ________.

A. critical B. objective

C. positive D. negative

24、   On a Saturday afternoon, Tasi Lama had just finished lunch and was going to wash his hands when the ground under his feet started shaking violently. Objects began to fall down from overhead and rising above the crashes, he could hear terrified screams all around him. Several months later, the painter from Nepal's Kathmandu Valley remembers that day more vividly than his wedding day or the birth of his son.

It was on April 25, 2015 that an earthquake hit Nepal, the former Himalayan kingdom out of sight between its giant neighbors China and India, 81 years after a similar disaster. This killer quake and aftershocks that continued for more than a month afterward killed over 8,000 people, destroyed thousands of houses, and ruined an economy already damaged by many other reasons.

It was also of consequence for the ancient art style Nepali painters such as Lama have been practicing for generations. “We left our homes and lived in the open fields outside the city, under tarpaulins（防水油布）for a month," Lama said. Many of the houses, built of mud and bricks, were in ruins and the aftershocks continued, though less frequently. One day, I went to my showroom to get some of the paintings out and the Earth started shaking again. I dropped everything and ran out for my life. ”

Dinesh Lama, a 32-year-old artist from Nepal's capital city, Kathmandu, said his Boudha Stupa Thangka Center, which functions as his showroom as well as his studio, has remained shut since the earthquake, as his artisans(工匠）are too traumatized （心理受到创伤的）to take up the brush again. “We lived in temporary tents for more than a month," he said. “When they try to sit inside the studio and paint, fear makes their hands shake. Luckily, we have got a lot of aid from China. I believe we will come back to our home soon. ”

【1】What can we conclude from the second paragraph?

A.The April 25 earthquake made Nepal disappear for long.

B.This quake caused more deaths than the one 81 years ago.

C.Nepal also suffered a serious disaster due to the 1934 quake.

D.The earthquake is the only reason for Nepal being backward.

【2】What can we know according to Tasi Lama's words?

A.Many Nepali painters lost their lives in the quake.

B.Only the houses built of mud and bricks broke down.

C.His showroom fell into ruins after the quake.

D.He had no choice but to stop working for long.

【3】What made Dinesh Lama worried most?

A.That his showroom had been totally destroyed.

B.That his artisans were incapable of working.

C.That he couldn't sell his works as usual.

D.That he would never pick up his brush to draw.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Children are like sweet-sour candy; no matter who you are or where you are, they please you. Laughter tickles, and innocence is their beauty which everyone adores. They are rich with joy, and purity. Yesterday, a sweet scene occupied me.

It was a summer morning. Sun poured its rays on the earth like holy wine. I was waiting for the shuttle at the bus station wearing my uniform, a white shirt with gray bottoms. Few people arrived and some departed from the bus stop to their destination. In a while, there came a young couple with their daughter.

The little girl was around 4 or 5 years. As they arrived, the baby caught everyone’s attention with her little naughty things.

She was wearing a yellow dress. Yellow was giving her a fresh look just like a sunflower: rise and shine. Her red curly hair was like cotton candy. The most eye-catching factor was her big round eyes. All black and dense having the glimpse of spark to explore everything. She was observing and scanning everything with her little black eyes.

There came an ice cream man. I could see immediately after the van played music; she asked her mother for something, but she denied it. Then she requested her father, he politely refused. She tied her hands and sat on the footpath as the sign she is offended. Red apple cheeks increased her cuteness.

While she was sitting there, a stray puppy (流浪狗) showed himself under the chairs. As soon as she saw him, the little girl rushed toward the dog and carried him. Her happiness was beyond passing over so did the puppy. He was skinny, muddy, and hungry too. “Emma don’t, he is dirty. You might mess yourself up,” her mom reminded her. “But mommy he is hungry and cold and should be fed and sheltered,” Emma said in a melodious voice as a request.

注意：

1.续写词数应为150左右；

She brought him to her dad, as he gestured her.
