22、Lautaro had already spent hours viewing and reviewing the footage he had taken of his grandmother, Maida, in memory of her childhood in southern Italy. There was no shortage of material. Maida was fascinating as she talked about everything from picking grapes in her grandparents’ garden to avoiding wild dogs on her daily routine to school. The problem was finding the best form for the material.

Lautaro had already finished a rough cut that followed his grandmother’s story in time order. The video began with Maida’s earliest memories of the Italian farmyard and ended with her arrival in the United States at age 15, puzzled and excited. Lautaro used family photographs to illustrate Maida’s storytelling. He knew the first version was not bad, but he was not satisfied with the overall video. He was certain that something vital was missing.

Running out of his own ideas, Lautaro decided to get some advice. And who better to ask than Maida herself? Lautaro showed Maida the 10-minute video on his computer. As soon as it was over Maida said, “I can’t get over how much things have changed, Taro. Your life seems so different from mine.” Maida’s words inspired Lautaro. Her reaction told him exactly what was missing: his personal point of view.

A few days later, when Lautaro screened his final project for his classmates and teacher, it was only two minutes longer than his original cut, but those extra minutes made a huge difference. Between Maida’s recollections of her past, Lautaro has added in photographs of his own life today. The contrasts were both striking and touching, and the final image of Lautaro listening to Maida reinforced the warmth and closeness of their relationship. Laurato smiled with pride as his classmates acknowledged his comparative documentary with cheerful applause.

【1】Which of the following events happened first?

A．Maida moved to the United States.

B．Maida went to school in Italy.

C．Lautaro edited a video about his grandmother.

D．Lautaro began working on a project for school.

【2】Before Lautaro made a rough cut of the video, he ______.

A．interviewed his grandmother

B．asked his grandmother for advice

C．gathered photographs of his own life

D．knew exactly what he wanted to express

【3】Right after showing the original video to Maida, Lautaro ______.

A．showed the video to his class

B．decided to include more old photographs

C．added modern details to his video

D．described Maida’s move to the United States

【4】What was the last image of the finished video?

A．Maida avoiding wild dogs on her way to school.

B．A photo of both Maida and Lautaro as children.

C．Lautaro’s classmates applauding cheerfully.

D．Lautaro listening to Maida’s stories.

23、D   It was about midday．I’d left work early in the morning to cash a check．I walked along to the bank and found there were only about ten or eleven customers in there, a pretty unusual number for those central banks．

I waited until it was my turn, walked up to the desk and started talking to the bank clerk．He had a really strange expression on his face—just sort of a blank stare．I thought he was looking at me until I realized he was staring over my shoulder．

I began to turn round to see what he was looking at and at the same moment, the outside bank guard, the one with the machine gun, came flying through the door and lay face down on the floor．Following him through the door were three absolutely frightening men wearing those horrible stocking masks．They were carrying guns; at least the one in front was carrying a pistol．

Whether or not they said anything I can’t remember to this day, or whether people just automatically put their hands up I don’t know．I put my hands up but I just didn’t know what to do．For a few moments there was just total silence, suddenly broken by the telephone ringing．I remember wondering who was on the other end of the line．Nobody answered the telephone, so it just kept on ringing and ringing, in this otherwise deathly quiet．

Then two of the masked men went to the counter, jumped over it and got the cashiers and bank clerks to start filling their bags with cash．While the two were getting the money, the one at the door covering us with the gun obviously got a bit of an anxiety attack and started swearing at them, telling them to hurry up and get a move on．

They jumped back over the counter．One of them lost his balance when he landed on the floor and fell over．The other two swore at him again．Then they left through the door, warning us, “Don’t move．Stay like that with your hands up for ten minutes．” Then they just disappeared and there was total silence．

【1】What could make the writer sense that something was about to happen?

A．The small number of customers．

B．The total silence in the bank．

C．The bank clerk’s unusual behavior．

D．The constant ringing of the phone．

【2】What was the outside bank guard’s reaction to the armed robbers?

A．He was frightened to death by the robbers．

B．He organized the bank clerks to fight back．

C．He shot at the robbers with the machine gun．

D．He flew through the door to catch the robbers．

【3】The man covering us with the gun at the door swore at the other two because ________．

A．he was afraid of getting less money

B．he was too anxious to leave the bank

C．one of his fellows slipped on the floor

D．the phone kept ringing at the moment

【4】From the passage we can know that ________．

A．there were usually less customers in the midday hour

B．the writer didn’t follow like sheep to put his hands up

C．the bank clerks were too busy to answer the telephone

D．three armed men robbed the central bank in broad daylight

24、Over the years, cheerleading has taken two primary forms: game-time cheerleading and competitive cheerleading. Game-time cheerleader’ main goal is to entertain the crowd and lead them with team cheers, which should not be considered a sport. However, competitive cheerleading is more than a form of entertainment. It is really a competitive sport.

Competitive cheerleading includes lots of physical activity. The majority of the teams require a certain level of tumbling (翻腾运动) ability. It’s a very common thing for gymnasts, so it’s easy for them to go into competitive cheerleading. Usually these cheerleaders integrate lots of their gymnastics experience including their jumps, tumbling, and overall energy. They also perform lifts and throws. This is where the “fliers” are thrown in the air, held by “bases” in different positions that require strength and working with other teammates.

Competitive cheerleading is also an activity that is governed by rules under which a winner can be declared. It is awarded points for technique, creativity and sharpness. Usually the more difficult the action is, the better the score is. That’s why cheerleaders are trying to experience great difficulty in their performance. Besides, there is also a strict rule of time. Any performance beyond the limit of time is invalid (无效的).

Another reason for the fact that competitive cheerleading is one of the hardest sports is that it has more reported injuries. According to some research, competitive cheerleading is the number one cause of serious sports injuries to women. Emergency room visits for it are five times the number than for any other sport, partially because cheerleaders don’t use protective equipment. Smiling cheerleaders are thrown into the air and move down into the arms of the teammates, which may easily cause injuries. Generally, these injuries affect all areas of the body, including wrists, shoulders, ankles, head, and neck.

There can be no doubt that competitive cheerleading is a sport with professional skills. Hopefully, it will appear in the Olympics since cheerleaders are just as athletic and physically fit as those involved in the more accepted sports. It should be noted that it is a team sport and even the smallest mistake made by one teammate can bring the score of the entire team down. So without working together to achieve the goal, first place is out of reach.

【1】What is the main purpose of competitive cheerleading?

A．To compare skills of participants.

B．To make the audience feel amused.

C．To attract more people to watch events.

D．To cheer up the competitors on the court.

【2】The underlined word “integrate” in Paragraph 2 probably means________.

A．examine

B．combine

C．identify

D．replace

【3】We can learn from the text that competitive cheerleading _________.

A．lacks necessary guidelines to follow

B．enjoys greater popularity than other sports

C．requires more designed actions than gymnastics

D．has a relatively high rate of damage to the body

25、   The measure of a man’s real character is what he would do if he knew he would never be found out. -Thomas Macaulay
