21、   What does it feel like to break a bone? It’s different for everyone, but the pain is often sharp(严重). If the break is small, however, the person may not feel much pain at all. If you think that you or someone else has broken a bone, the most important things to do are to stay calm, make the hurt person comfortable, and call the doctor. Do not move the injured body part since movement could make it worse.

To treat the break, the doctor will need to take an X-ray. This gives the doctor the information whether he or she needs to set the bone or not to put it back to its normal place. If the bone is large or it is broken in more than one place, the doctor may need to use metal pins(钢钉) to set it. After the bone has been set, the next step is usually putting on a cast, the special hard thing that will keep the bone in place for a month or two.

Your bones are excellent at healing themselves. Broken bones will produce many new cells(细胞) and tiny blood vessels(血脉). These cover both ends of the broken part, and close up the break until the bone is as whole and strong as before.

【1】When someone breaks his bone, the following should be done EXCEPT___________.

A. asking the doctor for help B. comforting the hurt person

C. moving the injured part D. staying calm

【2】Which is the correct order to treat the break?

a. take and x-ray

b. use metal pins to set it

c. put it back to its normal place

d. put on cast

A. a－b－c－d B. a－c－b－d C. a－d－c－b D. d－a－b－c

【3】The underlined word “healing” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to “__________”.

A. breaking again B. becoming worse C. wound or hurt D. becoming healthy again.

【4】Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A. How to Know If A Bone Is Broken B. How Broken Bones Heal Themselves

C. Common Causes of Broken Bones D. What You Should Know About Broken Bones

22、

We touch our faces all the time, and it had never seemed to be a big problem–until COVID-19 arrived. Touching our faces–the "T-zone" of our eyes, nose and mouth in particular–can mean giving ourselves the deadly virus.

This is why organizations like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have suggested that we avoid touching our faces. "Just stop this simple behavior," William Sawyer, founder of Henry the Hand, a nonprofit organization that promotes hand hygiene (卫生), told The Washington Post. "It's the one behavior that would be better than any vaccine ever created."

Yet, stopping this "simple" behavior might be harder than you think because it's already into our system.

Some face touching is an automatic reflex (反射) – like when there is an itch on your nose, you'll scratch (挠) it without thinking. According to CNBC, a 2014 study found that touching your face also helps to reduce stress and regulate emotions. For example, you're more likely to do it when you feel awkward or embarrassed. According to Dacher Keltner, a psychologist at the University of California Berkeley, US, this action may also come with a social function: When you are talking to someone and want to change the subject, for example, touching your face is like "the curtains on a stage, closing up one act of the social drama, leading to the next," Keltner told the BBC.

Moreover, face-touching in almost all of these is subconscious, which means it's very hard to change "because you don't even know you're doing it", said Sawyer. But you're not alone. In a 2015 study, where a group of medical students were filmed in class, it was found that they touched their faces an average of 23 times an hour–with 44 percent of the touches being in the"T-zones". That was particularly surprising since medical students were supposed to know better.

Since it's so hard to shake the habit, maybe the easiest way is to wash our hands more often. This way, we can be sure that our hands are free from the novel coronavirus.

Tips for keeping your hands away

Tie up your hair so your face won't be tickled (使发痒) by stray strands (松散的发缕).

Keep your hands occupied, eg. with a stress ball.

Ask a friend to keep an eye on your hands.

【1】It's hard to stop touching faces because people ________.

A．don't take it seriously

B．do it without awareness

C．are born with the behavior

D．feel happier while doing it

【2】What does the underlined word "subconscious" mean?

A．Obvious.

B．Natural.

C．Strange.

D．Impolite.

【3】Which of the following is a social function of touching faces, according to the text?

A．Bringing a conversation to an end.

B．Making others feel relaxed while talking.

C．Showing an interest in the ongoing subject.

D．Using it as a sign to change the topic.

【4】What is the author's purpose in mentioning a 2015 study on a group of medical students?

A．To give tips on how to stop touching faces.

B．To prove that it is common for people to touch their faces.

C．To show how hygiene awareness helps people avoid touching their faces.

D．To show it is impossible to shake the habit of touching your face.

23、             

For many people in North America, the last week was the coldest of the year. To help some poor people keep warm, some kind people tied(系) scarves to trees in big cities for people in need.

“I AM NOT LOST!” read a note on a scarf tied to a tree in Wilmington, “If you need this to stay warm, please take it. It is yours. Be warm, and do something to help someone else today if you can.”

The member of a teenage soccer team put many of the scarves around Wilmington. They bought around 300 scarves for poor persons and left them on the Bloomsday runner statues(雕塑) in Riverfront Park with notes like the one above.

A group of villagers also left their scarves all over the cities. “The scarves get right to the people who want them,” said Wendy Grahl, one of the villagers, “If you’re poor and it’s 30 below, a scarf is going to be welcome.”

“I’ve seen a lot of bad things happen, but I’ve seen a lot of good people that care for others,” said Ed, a homeless man who took one of the team’s scarves.

Do your neighbors do anything similar for the less lucky persons during the cold winter? If so, try your best to take part in it.

24、   DNA is the whole“ map” of the human body. It is something that all humans have, and it tells the body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our parents, because we get some of their DNA to make our own.

People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In 1860, Mr. Mendel discovered why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small things called“ genes” （基因）in our body. In 1953, two scientists, Watson and Crick, found out that genes are really messages. They're written in the DNA with a special language.

In 1961, another two scientists found the first" word" that they could understand in that language. It shows how DNA tells the cell（细胞）to build its parts. So far, scientists have found all the words in the DNA map, but we still don't understand what they all do. By understanding what just one“ word” means, we can help to save people from several illnesses. So the more we understand, the more doctors will be able to do.

Most people hope that this can help to make better medicine to help sick people. Other people worry that when we learn more“ word” and find out more information, we will use it in the wrong way. Just to make people more attractive, or stop sick people getting jobs.

【1】Watson and Crick found in 1953.

A. all the words in the DNA map

B. small things called“ genes” in our body

C. genes are written in the DNA with a special language

D. the first" word" they could understand in that language

【2】If we understand more" words" in the DNA map, we can help sick people.

A. get jobs B. get better medicine

C. in the wrong way D. in an attractive way

【3】What do people think about this research about DNA?

A. It can be only bad. B. It can be only good.

C. It can be good and bad. D. It can be good but won't come true.

【4】If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is the best?

（①-Para. （自然段）1②=Para. 2③=Para. 3④-Para. 4）

A. ①; ②③; ④ B. ①; ②: ③④ C. ①②; ③; ④ D. ①②; ③④

25、   Can you think of ways to make the world greener? Here is an e【1】. A couple have travelled around the world in 297 days---w【2】 taking any planes. Tom Fewins and Lara Lockwood used 78 buses, 61 trains, 34 cars, 18 boats, six bicycles, and e【3】 one elephant. They wanted to prove（证明）that tourists can still travel well without damaging（破坏）the e【4】. They aimed to produce l【5】 than 3,000 kg of carbon dioxide（二氧化碳）, compared with six times that amount if they had gone by plane.

They spent ten months travelling 44,609 miles t【6】 18 countries on land and sea. The couple’s world tour b【7】 in June 2008 with a two-hour bus trip to London from their home in Oxforshire. They took the train to Brussels and then c【8】 a bus and train to Hamburg before going to Copenhagen. The couple even r【9】on an elephant for 15 miles through the Chinese part of the Mekong River（湄公河）.

26、Keys to being happy

Are you happy? Perhaps, some of you would say “no”. Indeed, being a teenager is hard. You may worry about your homework, exams and social life.

You are not alone. A recent survey（调查） by Beijing Academy of Educational Science shows that many Chinese teenagers suffer from social life, study and emotional problems. About 30 to 60 percent of teenagers who take a break from school do so because of mental health problems according to the survey.

The serious situation has draw much attention from experts, schools and teachers. The International Conference on Happiness Education and Positive Mental Health Education was held in Beijing from May 21 to May 23. About 40 experts around the world shared their findings and advice on the problem. Also, the International Happiness Education Consortium（联盟）was set up. Over 1,000 Chinese schools have joined in to promote the idea of happiness education.

Some schools have done well in it. Beijing No 19 High School opened happiness classes in 2011. It has organized a mental health week every year since 2008. Students take part in activities like sharing their small happiness in life with others and writing postcards to show their thanks.

Tsinghua University High School tries to meet students' needs. It built a skating rink（滑冰场） and different labs to develop students' interest.“When students can do the things they want, they will be happy” the principal（校长） Wang Dianjun said.

While schools take actions, students themselves can do something, too. Experts say that being happy is a kind of skill. Nadia Lovett is a professor from the University of Adelaide in Australia. She believes 40 percent of your happiness depends on your choices. Your daily habits, hobbies and attitude toward life all play a role in happiness. And he gave some good advice for all of us:
