21、On my recent trip to Sydney with my parents,we visited the Wildlife Park.
The Wildlife Park has lots of different animals. Some are native(当地的)to Australia and can only be found there. There are over 600 animals there,including kangaroos, koalas and crocodiles(鳄鱼).They are kept in their natural environment. I like the Wildlife Park better than a zoo where most of the animals are in cages.
We first spent some time with the kangaroos. We were allowed to touch and feed them. It was very exciting to be so close to them.There were koalas there too. They looked very cuddly(令人想拥抱的). Although we were not allowed to carry them, I got to take a photo with one. It is a wonderful souvenir of my holiday in Sydney.
The Wildlife Park has plenty of freshwater and saltwater crocodiles. Some of them are really big and scary with huge teeth! I did not want to get too close to them.
There was also a bird show. The keepers showed us different species they had. I saw an old parrot which could “talk”. It made a great impression on me.
I enjoyed the trip very much.There was so much to see.

22、Last summer, more than 12,000 fans packed London’s Wembley Arena. Thousands more watched online. They shouted and cheered. Were they watching soccer? No, they were watching esports, or competitive PC gaming. Millions of people in Britain play PC games for fun. Some of them have become professionals, playing games as their full-time job. The prize at the Wembley event came to 3 million pounds.
But are esports really sports? Are the players athletes? It’s easy to say, “No way.” After all, professional gamers don’t need to run, jump or throw a ball. At the moment, Britain government considers esports as a kind of game, not as a sport.
It’s not easy being a professional gamer, though. They practice for 10 or more hours a day, five or six days a week. They do exercises like typing something and then trying to type it faster and faster. They also study videos of other players and plan ways to beat them.
Many people who play games also enjoy watching them. They often watch games on video sites like Twitch and YouTube, and in Britain there’s even a TV program showing esports 24 hours a day. Matches can be exciting to watch. Just like in other sports, there are close games, last-minute victories and creative strategies. Sometimes online viewers can interact with the players through messaging.
But many people think that esports are sports. They say that players do need physical skills, especially hand-eye working together, quick reaction, accuracy (精准性) and timing. If darts and snooker are considered as sports, then perhaps esports should be too. In fact, the governments of China and South Korea do consider esports as sports, and gamers will soon be able to compete for medals at the 2022 Asian Games.
Even if esports are not important and popular or regarded as a sport in your country or place at the moment, they probably will be soon.

D.Unconcerned.
【4】Which is the best title of the passage?
A.Esports: Are They Sports Or Not?
B.Esports: Can We Benefit From Them?

23、The morning had been a disaster. My tooth was aching, and I’d been in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt: “The trouble with you is that you won’t put yourself in my place. Can’t you see things from my point of view?” I shook my head stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth. I’d thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately. Finally, at about lunch time, I got lucky.
“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said, “the dentist will fit you in.”
I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist. What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn’t he as busy as the others?
In the dentist’s office, I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.
When I told her my fears, she laughed and said, “Don’t worry. The dentist is very good.”
“How long do I have to wait for him?” I asked impatiently.
“Come on, he is coming. Just lie down and relax. And enjoy the artwork,” the assistant said.
“The artwork?” I was puzzled.
The chair went back, suddenly I smiled. There was a beautiful picture, right where I could enjoy it on the ceiling. How considerate the dentist was! At that moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.
What a relief!

24、Have you imagined that planting trees can make a big difference? People say that one man can’t make a difference, but Abdul Samad Sheikh, a 60-year-old rickshaw (人力车) driver from Bangladesh, has proved that doing a small thing over a long period of time can mean very much. He has planted at least one tree every day since he was 12 years old, which means that he has so far planted a small forest of over 17,500 trees. Imagine if everyone followed his example.
Abdul has worked as a rickshaw driver for most of his life. He makes a little money from his job, which is only enough to put food on the table for his family, but he somehow tries to also buy at least one tree every day. He considers it his duty to the world. Mostly he plants them on government land so nobody can cut them down later. He also waters them, and if he sees anyone cutting a tree, he blames them.
Abdul, his wife Jorna, and four of their children live in two old houses, on a piece of land that is owned by the Faridpur deputy commissioner’s office. They have no land of their own.
Sometimes, she commands him not to plant trees but he doesn’t listen. Abdul’s 30-year-old son, Kutub Uddin, has never told his father not to plant trees, because he thinks his father does a good thing for society.
Abdul’s neighbors all know about his daily habit, and praise his work. Whoever can ask of him anything, he will do his best to help. Therefore, Abdul is loved by neighbors.
For his efforts, Abdul Samad Sheikh was recently honored by The Daily Star, and given $1,253 to help him build a better home for his family. The Daily Star wished everyone to follow his example, and protect the environment.
“I can’t do it alone. I need the help of you all,” Abdul said in his speech.
【1】What do we know about Abdul?
A.He doesn’t support his family.
B.He plants trees with his own money.
C.He makes a living by doing different jobs.
D.He plants trees to win his neighbors’ praise.
【2】Why does Abdul plant trees on government land?
A.To get money from government.
B.To set a good example to people.
C.To protect them from being cut down.
D.To get a place from government to build his own house.
【3】Which of the following can best describe Abdul?
A.Poor but helpful.
B.Rich and reliable.
C.Uncaring and stupid.
D.Active but dishonest.
【4】What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?
