22、   When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city. We lived on a farm and in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that city life has its problems too.

One big disadvantage is money—It costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma(哮喘), and at times the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of traveling round. Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous.

Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment. Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising—and , what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.

Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is , when you are in your teens(十几岁)or twenties. However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.

【1】What was the writer always thinking about when he was a child?

A.Staying on the farm. B.Moving to the countryside.

C.Leaving home for the city. D.Running away from the school.

【2】Which of the following is true about the writer?

A.He is very old now. B.He is in good health.

C.He prefers driving a car. D.He lives in the city now.

【3】In the passage, the writer tries to __________.

A.express his opinions about way of life B.describe his life in the countryside

C.show an interest in the outside world D.persuade the reader to live in the city

23、My family recently did our first major road trip, traveling from our Maryland home to Disney World in Florida. Though we’re no strangers to travel, a trip of this length was a new experience for us with three children. What helped us enjoy our trip so much? Our schedule, of course! So keeping a schedule when you travel can help make your trip a success.

Don’t sleep the day away.

I know you’re on vacation. The kids have a break from school, and you’re excited to be out of the office. Let everyone sleep for a bit, but Still make it a point to rise at a reasonable hour and get active to start the day. Not only will you see and do more on your trip, but it will make it easier to eat regularly, get the kids down at nap time (午觉), and then go to bed without a struggle.

Eat regularly.

Time is easy to go by while you’re running through a theme park, or exploring (考察) a museum. Be prepared for meals because hungry kids are often quick to turn into a headache for you. Pack a snack and drink bag and make sure to stop regularly for a bite to eat while you’re out. Keeping a regular meal schedule can help everyone keep up their energy and enjoy the day.

Take a nap.

Does your baby take a daily nap? Naps are very important for baby’s development. They also help little ones to pick up their strength, or vacations can be exhausting (疲惫的) for little minds and bodies.

Go to bed at a reasonable hour.

Everyone can get tired out on vacation. Don’t allow anyone to stay up late every night. Mom, dad, and kids are all sure to be miserable if they don’t get enough sleep. If bedtime gets delayed (推迟), adjust your travel plans accordingly.

【1】Why does the author write this passage?

A. To tell the readers what fun it is to travel.

B. To introduce some attractions of Disney World.

C. To introduce one of his travel experiences to the readers.

D. To give some advice on keeping a schedule while traveling.

【2】From the passage, we can infer that   .

A. the writer is a stranger traveling in the U.S.

B. the writer is familiar with travel and has much experience

C. a proper schedule helped the writer enjoy his trip to Maryland

D. eating a little more helps little children to recover their strength

【3】What kind of people is the passage mainly written for?

A. Travelers to the U.S.

B. Travel companies or agencies.

C. Teenagers crazy about traveling.

D. Parents who plan a family travel.

【4】During the trip, the author will agree that   .

A. taking a nap during the day is necessary for the children

B. games and enjoyable activities can last until late at night

C. brunch is a good choice if you sleep late in the morning

D. the bedtime should be changed if the travel plan changes

24、Puppies can be taught. So can human children, though not for the first couple of years. Now, in the hope of fighting climate change, Dr Jan Langbein, of the Fredrich-Loweffler-Institut in Germany, and his colleagues hope they can train cows to use the toilet, too.

Cow pee（尿）contains a nitrogen-rich substance that, when broken down by enzymes（酶）, is transformed into ammonia（氨）. Bacteria in the soil, in turn, transform that ammonia into nitrous oxide, a greenhouse gas. Collecting and treating cow pee before the ammonia can be produced might, therefore, seem like a good idea. But it has proved difficult in the past without limiting the cows to small areas, which is bad for their welfare.

As Dr Langbein describes in Current Biology, this confusing problem could be solved if cows could be persuaded to voluntarily relieve themselves in a toilet. He has developed a three-stage process to help cows master toilet training. The first job was to establish the toilet. Calves（小牛）were limited to a toilet and rewarded with treats after peeing in it. Next, they were given the freedom to wander around a path outside the toilet. Peeing in the toilet were rewarded; those in the path were gently punished with a spray of water. Finally, the path was extended, to allow the animals to practice self-control over a greater distance.

Of the 16 calves involved in the training process, 11 were considered successfully toilet-trained by the end of it. Their overall performance, say the researchers, was almost comparable to that of human children. The animals managed to pee in the toilet around 77% of the time.

The next step, says Dr Langbein, is to see if cattle on a working farm can be similarly trained. Whether farmers will be keen is another question. Building toilets and training animals costs time and money, after all. But when it comes to climate change, every little helps.

【1】Why did Dr Jan Langbein and his team train cows to use toilet?

A．To make use of cow pee.

B．To keep the environment clean.

C．To reduce greenhouse gas.

D．To limit the cows to small areas.

【2】What was the effective way to improve the cows' performance?

A．Using rewards and punishments.

B．Forcing them to use the toilet.

C．Making the toilet-training interesting.

D．Keeping them from wandering around.

【3】What do we know about the result of the toilet-training from Paragraph 4?

A．It was successful.

B．It was doubtful.

C．The training proved difficult.

D．Calves were as smart as human children.

【4】What's the main purpose of the passage?

A．To encourage people to train their pets.

B．To explain an abstract science concept.

C．To raise awareness of caring for animals.

D．To introduce a new eco-friendly method.

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。

A Long Walk Home

I grew up in the south of Spain in a little community called Estepona. I was 16 when one morning, my father told me I could drive him into a remote village called Mijas, about 18 miles away, on the condition that I took the car in to be serviced at a nearby garage. Having just learned to drive and hardly ever having the opportunity to use the car, I readily accepted. I drove Dad into Mijas and promised to pick him up at 4 pm. I then drove to a nearby garage and dropped off the car. Because I had a few hours to spare, I decided to catch a couple of movies at a theater near the garage. However, I became so interested in the films that I didn’t pay any attention to the time. When the last movie had finished, I looked down at my watch. It was six o’clock. I was two hours late!

I knew Dad would be angry if he found out I’d been watching movies. He’d never let me drive again. I decided to tell him that the car needed some repairs and that they had taken longer than expected. I drove up to the place where we had planned to meet and saw Dad waiting patiently in the corner. I apologised for being late and told him that I’d come as quickly as I could, but the car had needed some major repairs. I’ll never forget the look he gave me.

“I’m disappointed that you feel you have to lie to me, Jason.”

“What do you mean? I’m telling the truth.”

Dad looked at me again. “When you did not show up, I called the garage to ask if there were any problems, and they told me that you had not yet picked up the car. So you see, I know there were no problems with the car.” A feeling of guilt ran through me as I weakly confessed to my trip to the movie theater and the real reason for my being late. Dad listened attentively as a sadness passed through him.

“I’m angry, not with you but with myself.
