21、Today, people all over the world are moving out of small villages in the country to go and live in big, noisy cities. They are moving from the peaceful hills, mountains, fields, rivers and streams of the countryside to the busy world of streets, buildings, traffic and crowds. This movement from rural areas to urban areas has been going on for over two hundred years.

In many countries, the main reason people come to live in towns and cities is work. After one or two large factories have been built in or near a town, people come to find work, and soon an industrial area begins to grow. There is usually a residential area nearby, too. The families of these workers need schools, hospitals and shops, so many people come to live in the area to provide these services and a city grows.

In every major city in the world, there is a business district where the big companies have their main offices. In the United States, this area is usually in the city center downtown. It is here that you can see many huge skyscrapers(摩天大楼) and office blocks. The people who work here often travel a long way to work each day. Many of them live in the suburbs of the city, far away from the industrial area and the city center. Some suburbs are very pleasant, with nice houses and big gardens. There are usually parks for children to play in and large department stores where you can buy all you need.

But what is the future of the big cities? Will they continue to get bigger and bigger? Perhaps not. Some major cities have actually become smaller in the last ten years, and it is quite possible that one day we will see people moving out of the major cities and back into smaller towns and villages.

【1】Why do people move to live in cities or towns?

A．Because they can live more comfortably there.

B．Because they like noisy life better than peaceful life.

C．Because they mainly want to find work there.

D．Because they are sure of having a better life there.

【2】The underlined phrase “a residential area” means an area________.

A．where people can buy things

 B．which is suitable for living in

C．where people can do business

D．which is near a city center

【3】Which of the following statement is NOT true about the business district?

A．Big companies usually have their main offices in the business district.

B．People usually work and live in the business district.

C．A business district usually lies in the city center downtown.

D．Nearly every major city has its own business district.

【4】In the United States, many people work in the center of a big city________.

A．and live there

B．but live in the suburbs of the city

C．and live in another city

D．but live in rural areas

【5】We can infer that this movement from rural to urban areas ________.

A．has been going on for more than 2,000 years

B．will surely continue in the future

C．may not continue in the future

D．has now stopped already

22、   Experts are warning about the risks of extreme picky eating after a teenager developed permanent sight loss after living on a diet of chips and crisps.

Since leaving primary school, the teen had been eating only French fries, white bread, as well as an occasional slice of ham or a sausage.

The adolescent, who cannot be named, had seen his doctor at the age of 14 because he had been feeling tired and unwell. At that time he was diagnosed with lack of vitamin B12 and put on supplements, but he did not stick with the treatment or improve his poor diet.

Three years later, he was taken to the Bristol Eye Hospital because of progressive sight loss. Dr Denize Atan, who treated him at the hospital, said: "His diet was only a portion of chips from the local fish and chip shop every day. He also used to snack on chips, white bread and sometimes slices of ham or sausage, and not really any fruit and vegetables."

The teen explained this as a dislike to certain kinds of food that he really could not tolerate, and so chips and crisps were really the only types of food that he wanted and felt that he could eat.

Dr Aan rechecked the young man's vitamin levels and said "he was low in B12 as well as some other important vitamins and minerals - copper, selenium and vitamin D. He was not over or underweight, but was severely malnutritional from his eating disorder. He had lost minerals from his bone, which was really quite shocking for a boy of his age.”

"He had blind spots right in the middle of his vision," said Dr Atari's assistant. "That means he can't drive and would find it really difficult to read, watch TV or recognize faces, but he can walk around on his own because he has got peripheral(周边的）vision.

The condition the young man has is treatable if diagnosed early. Left too long, however, the nerve fibres in the optic nerve（视神经）die and the damage becomes permanent.

Now he has been put on vitamin supplements and sent to a dietitian and a specialist mental health team.

【1】What can we know about the boy?

A.He didn't see a doctor. B.He can not see anything now.

C.He has a normal body shape. D.He insisted on taking supplements.

【2】What kind of food does the boy refuse to eat?

A.Crisps and chips. B.white bread

C.Ham and sausage. D.fruit and vegetables

【3】What can we learn from Dr Atan's words?

A.Vegetables and fruit are the only source of vitamins.

B.Lack of vitamins and minerals may lead to the loss of sigh.

C.The more vitamins we take, the betterr.

D.Loss of minerals from bone causes blindness.

【4】What column does the passage belong to?

A.Medicine B.Education

C.Economy D.culture

23、Winter garden maintenance (打理) isn’t much fun when it’s miserable outside.【1】.

Replace fences with composite screens (复合屏风)

Our garden fences provide much-needed privacy as well as safeguarding children and pets, but they can require a fair amount of maintenance in terms of staining and sealing to protect them against the elements. A great alternative to traditional wooden fencing is composite screens.【2】. Thus they are more durable and less likely to be damaged by the elements.

Plant evergreens

When it comes to plants, evergreens are a great choice for ensuring that your garden looks its best all year long. Evergreens will add a special look to your garden with very little maintenance. You may also want to consider getting a few larger plants rather than lots of smaller ones.【3】.

Experiment with ornamental (观赏性的) grass.

Ornamental grasses can look impressive in a garden of any size.【4】. Try combining grasses such as Elijah Blue (which you should only need to cut back every couple of years) with varieties such as Festuca Glauca and Miscanthus Sinensis for a beautifully natural look without too much maintenance.

【5】.

If you fancy doing away with your lawn completely but don’t want your garden to look plain and bare, a green wall may be the answer. Climbing plants, including honeysuckle, are ideal for a green wall and can give your garden a natural look while allowing you not to be that busy.

A．Plant wild flowers

B．Grow a green wall

C．And they need significantly less maintenance than standard lawns

D．Use these expert tips to design a low-maintenance winter garden

E．It will help you to cut down on gardening hours during the winter

F．Kitchen gardens have become increasingly popular in recent years

G．These are made of fence panels created from a combination of wood and plastic

24、   Certain unfortunate events possess the power to turn over life completely. While most people encounter difficulty accepting the situation and spend most time losing sleep over it, a few individuals are courageous enough to accept it, with a big smile on their face.

Ian is a former Golf player. Just like most people have dreams, so did Ian. With his passion, commitment, and expertise in the sport, the Golfer has been a keen golf player throughout his life. Dreaming of trying to get in the Senior Tour, Ian wanted to give it a try. Nevertheless, life has other plans.

In 1996, Ian was diagnosed with a brain tumor (肿瘤) on his left side. After battling a life-threatening illness, Ian's life decided to take another turn completely. In 2006, with his left side feeling extremely numb, Ian found out that he had a major stroke in the hospital. The stroke was so critical that he ended up being severely disabled. Doctors told him that he might not walk ever again, let alone playing Golf.

Upon realizing that he has lost the chance of playing the Senior Tour, he was heartbroken. However, the power of the inner will of an individual is capable of moving mountains. The huge setback in Ian's life wasn't powerful enough to demotivate the high-spirited individual. Ian took this obstacle in life as a challenge and decided to take it head-on rather than waste time dwelling over it. With the optimistic thinking of "A disability is not an inability", he decided to start writing and promoting Golf for the disabled.

Ian is a man of bravery. He described his life as "still living the dream". How he fought to recover from the deadly illness, followed by the stroke, is nothing but an incredible journey, which is an inspiration to people.

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。

It was a typical Monday morning for Jenny, a diligent high school senior. The sound of her alarm clock woke her up, a rude awakening from her sweet dreams. She unwillingly opened her eyes, knowing what waited for her-another 5 long days at school.

Dragging herself out of bed, Jenny went through her usual morning routine. She hurriedly got dressed, grabbed her backpack, and rushed to the kitchen for breakfast. Her mother had prepared a nutritious meal, but Jenny had no appetite. She was too occupied with thoughts of an upcoming exam in her most challenging subject, mathematics.

As Jenny walked to school, her mind wandered back to the countless hours she had spent studying and practicing equations (方程式). She had put in lots of effort, hoping to improve her grades. However, despite her dedication, she was struggling to achieve the desired results. Doubts started crawling in, and anxiety stayed in her mind like dark clouds.

As students settled into their seats, Mr. Johnson, their math teacher, announced that the exam would take place that afternoon. Jenny started to feel afraid. She suddenly realized that she had forgotten her calculator at home, an essential tool for the exam. Panic turned into hopelessness, as she knew that borrowing one during the test would be strictly prohibited.

Jenny’s friends, Emma and David, noticed her worry and approached her after class. They offered their help. Emma suggested that Jenny be honest to Mr. Johnson and explain her situation. David, however, had a different plan. He proposed sneaking (偷偷给) his calculator to her during the exam, risking punishment for cheating.

注意:

1. 续写词数应为150左右；
