21、Held in Valencia, La Tomatina is a tomato-throwing activity that causes the number of people to increase to more than 40,000 in a town of just 9,000 persons.

The festival takes place on the town’s main square. At 11 o’clock, the third Wednesday in August every year, a large pole(杆) with a ham tied to the end of it is raised into the air, and there is a mad climb as people struggle against each other to pull it down. Once this is achieved, a rocket goes skywards and more than 100 tons of ripe tomatoes are tipped from trucks to the waiting crowd. For precisely one hour, until a second rocket is fired, everyone joins in a cheerful tomato battle.

La Tomatina began in 1945, but it is not known why. Locals have many theories, including the popular tale of angry townsfolk attacking city councilmen(议员) during a town celebration. However, it could also have started because of anything from an anti-France protest or simply a fun food fight between friends. Whichever way it started, the townsfolk of Valencia enjoyed it so much that it was repeated year after year, finally becoming an officially recognized celebration in 1952. Despite being cancelled briefly during the 1970s for having no religious significance, it has returned every year since then.

Most people come for the day, arriving on the morning train from Valencia and heading back in the afternoon. But if you want the full La Tomatina experience, stay for the week-long celebration which involves music, dancing, parades and fireworks. The night before the fight, a cooking competition is held where women traditionally dress in white, and men without shirts altogether.

Protection for the fight is recommended—wear old clothes and shoes and a pair of glasses to protect your eyes. What you don’t bring to La Tomatina is also important. The crazy tomato-throwers attack each other with all their strength: cameras are seen as positive invitations to throw at the owner.

【1】Before La Tomatina starts, people .

A. have to eat hams to be powerful.

B. bring down a ham on a pole.

C. store their own tomatoes first.

D. sing and dance together.

【2】The underlined sentence in the last paragraph may mean .

A. cameras may be thrown away in the fight sometimes.

B. you aren’t allowed to take pictures of the fight freely.

C. visitors with cameras can avoid being hit by tomatoes.

D. more tomatoes will throw at you if you bring a camera.

【3】Why did the author write the passage?

A. To introduce La Tomatina.

B. To advise readers to join in La Tomatina.

C. To explain the origin of La Tomatina.

D. To give advice on how to enjoy yourself most in La Tomatina.

22、One of our biggest fears nowadays is that our kids might someday get lost in a “sea of technology” rather than experiencing the natural world. Fear-producing TV and computer games are leading to a serious disconnect between kids and the great outdoors, which will change the wild places of the world, its creatures and human health for the worse, unless adults get working on child’s play.

Each of us has a place in nature we go sometimes, even if it was torn down. We cannot be the last generation to have that place. At this rate, kids who miss the sense of wonder outdoors will not grow up to be protectors of natural landscapes. “If the decline in parks use continues across North America, who will defend parks against encroachment (蚕食)?” asks Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods.

Without having a nature experience, kids, can turn out just fine, but they are missing out a huge enrichment of their lives. That applies to everything from their physical health and mental health, to stress levels, creativity and cognitive (认知的) skills. Experts predict modern kids will have poorer health than their parents — and they say a lack of outside play is surely part of it; research suggests that kids do better academically in schools with a nature component and that play in nature fosters (培养) leadership by the smartest, not by the toughest. Even a tiny outdoor experience can create wonder in a child. The three-year-old turning over his first rock realizes he is not alone in the world. A clump of trees on the roadside can be the whole universe in his eyes. We really need to value that more.

Kids are not responsible. They are over-protected and frightened. It is dangerous out there from time to time, but repetitive stress from computers is replacing breaking an arm as a childhood rite (仪式) of passage.

Everyone, from developers, to schools and outdoor citizens, should help regain for our kids some of the freedom and joy of exploring, taking friendship in fields and woods that cement love, respect and need for landscape. As parents, we should devote some of our energies to taking our kids into nature. This could yet be our greatest cause.

【1】The main idea of Paragraph 2 is that ________.

A．kids miss the sense of wonder outdoors

B．parks are in danger of being gradually encroached

C．Richard Louv is the author of Last Child in the Woods

D．children are expected to develop into protectors of nature

【2】According to the passage, children without experiencing nature will ________.

A．be less healthy both physically and mentally

B．be over-protected by their parents

C．keep a high sense of wonder

D．change wild places and creatures for the better

【3】According to the author, children’s breaking an arm is ________.

A．the fault on the part of their parents

B．the natural experience in their growing up

C．the result of their own carelessness in play

D．the effect of their repetitive stress from computers

【4】What does the underlined word “cement” in the last paragraph mean?

A．Weaken.

B．Strengthen.

C．Lower.

D．Decease.

【5】In writing this passage, the author mainly intends to ________.

A．blame children for getting lost in computer games

B．encourage children to protect parks from encroachment

C．show his concern about children’s lack of experience in nature

D．inspire children to keep the sense of wonder about things around

24、   The town of Paradise has suffered a camp fire, which lasted 17 days and caused a damage of $16.5 billion. As a result, the beautifully named place lost its beauty.

Shane Grammer, a creative director for Disney’s theme parks in Los Angeles, paid close attention to the news of the fire. He felt quite helpless when seeing the pictures shared by his childhood friend Shane Edwards in the town, in which Shane photographed his white chimney, the only part of his house left after the fire.

“I’ve got to paint that chimney,” he said to Inside Edition. “I’m not trying to say anything. And it was an opportunity for me to express and be an artist, isn’t it?”

Grammer spent three hours spray-painting the image of a woman on the chimney, which is strikingly mysterious black and white, in the ruins. Perhaps it serves as a reminder of the beauty of life or just life itself. Then Grammer put the picture on Instagram. On seeing it, the victims of the fire could not contain themselves. “Beautiful and haunting,” one of them commented. And another said, “You bring beauty and hope.”

At this time, Grammer became aware that something deeper had been transformed by a purely artistic expression. “When the first mural (壁画) moved so many people, I knew I had to come back up,” he said to KRCR-TV. Grammer returned to Paradise eight times in three months, during which he completed 17 paintings of victims and Biblical figures, pickups and parts of buildings on walls.

Today, Grammer’s efforts have developed into a movement. He has also painted murals in dark places that seriously need some light around the world.

Ironically, the first painting, on the chimney in Paradise, existed for just several months, since the bulldozer (推土机) is a merciless art critic. But Grammer couldn’t be more pleased about it, which means the spirit of Paradise is rising again.

【1】How did Grammer come up with the idea of painting the chimney?

A.From Disney’s theme parks.

B.From his friend’s description of the fire.

C.By looking at a picture of Shane Edward’s remaining chimney after the fire.

D.After learning about the news of the fire.

【2】Why did Grammer tell Inside Edition that he wasn’t trying to say anything?

A.Because he had nothing to say.

B.Because he felt it difficult to express himself.

C.Because he had his way to express himself.

D.Because he had no opportunity to express himself.

【3】What does the underlined part “something deeper” in Paragraph 5 refer to?

A.People’s inner feelings.

B.People’s words.

C.The meaning of the mural.

D.The background situation.

【4】What do Grammer’s murals mean to people?

A.They are mysteries.

B.They are entertaining.

C.They are artistic expressions.

D.They are inspiring.

【5】What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A.The people in Paradise are in high spirits now.

B.Paradise is recovering from the disaster in a short time.

C.Grammer is not happy for the destruction of his mural.

D.The bulldozer was so cruel that it destroyed Grammer’s mural.

25、Racket, din, clamor, noise, whatever you want to call it, unwanted sound is America's most wide spread nuisance. But noise is more that just a nuisance. It constitutes a real and present danger to people's health. Day and night, at home, at work, and at play, noise can produce serious physical and psychological _________. No one is immune to this stress. Though we seem to adjust to noise by _________ it, the car, in fact, never closes and the body still responds- sometimes with extreme _________, as to strange sound in the night.

The _________ we feel when faced with noise is the most common outward _________ of the stress building up inside us. Indeed, because irritability is so apparent, legislators (立法者) have made public annoyance the _________ of many noise reduction programs. The more subtle and more serious health hazards associated with stress caused by noise _________ have been given much less attention._________, when we are annoyed or made irritable by noise, we should consider these symptoms fair warning that other things may be happening to us, some of which may be damaging to our health.

Of many health hazards of noise, hearing loss is the most clearly observable and _________ by health professionals. The other hazards are harder to pin down. For many of us, there may be a risk that __________ to the stress of noise increases vulnerability to disease and infection. The more vulnerable among us may experience noise as a complicating factor in heart problems and other diseases. Noise that cause annoyance and irritability in healthy persons may have serious consequences for these already ill in mind or body.

Noise affects us throughout our lives. For example, there are __________ of effects on the unborn child when mothers are __________ to industrial and environmental noise. During infancy and childhood, youngsters affected by high noise levels may have trouble falling asleep and obtaining necessary amounts of rest.

Why, then, is there not greater __________ about these dangers? Perhaps it is because the link between noise and many disabilities or disease has not yet been __________ demonstrated.

26、书面表达

阅读下面短文，然后按要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

 “When should I begin to acquire good habits?”a young boy asked his teacher.

“How old are you?” asked the teacher.

“Eight years old, sir.”answered the boy.

“Then you have just lost eight years,”the teacher replied.

There is no doubt that habits are formed at a very early age. When one is young, it is easy to acquire good habits.

Good habits are practices that help us in our daily life. The habit of brushing one’s teeth in the morning, for instance, keeps one’s teeth clean and prevents a bad smell which is unpleasant to others. Bad habits such as sticking one’s tongue out, biting one’s fingernails and picking one’s nose, are undesirable ways of behaving in front of others. If we want people to enjoy being with us, we should try to develop habits that are pleasant.

It is said, “We sow an act; we reap a habit. We sow a habit and we reap a character.” The habits we formed at an early age shape our character. Habits are like tributaries（支流） which flow into a river. The river is made up of all its tributaries; a person’s character is made up of all the habits that he or she has acquired over the years.
