When I was a boy, we lived 4 miles outside of town. We lived next to the forest and I would spend hours every day playing in it with the oak（橡树）and maple trees as my companions. I would climb up their limbs, sit in their shade, and feel their peace.
That is why it was so hard for me when I found myself to be a lumberjack as a young man. It wasn't just the back-breaking work, the long hours, and the low pay. It was also seeing day after day beautiful trees that had grown for half a century being sawed up and cut into flooring. Still, I couldn't help but think that they looked a lot more lovely as living trees reaching up to Heaven than as dead flooring lying under my feet.
One afternoon after a long day's work, I was feeling particularly down and depressed. I decided to take a walk in the woods like I had as a boy in hopes of lifting my spirits and calming my soul. As I walked along with my aching back and tired body, I longed for those happy childhood days. I dropped my head, frustrated, and looked down at the dirt. That is when I saw it: a single, red oak acorn（橡子）that had somehow survived the hungry deer and squirrels all winter long. Then I remembered something I'd read once: "Eventually an acorn becomes a forest!" I smiled, bent down, dug up a handful of dirt, and planted that little acorn, feeling peace and joy warming my heart. Then I walked back home happy once again to be a part of God's green earth.
In this life we all start out as an acorn, but whether we become a forest or not is up to us. God gives us this glorious life here to grow, lean, laugh, love, share, smile, and help others to do the same. Embrace this gift of life. Use it to every day, stretch your soul towards Heaven and create a mighty forest of love.
24.Which of the following can best describe the author's childhood?
A. Carefree B. Dull. C. Plain. D. Miserable.
25. What does the underlined word "lumberjack" mean in the second paragraph?
A.A person who plants trees. B.A person who waters trees.
C.A person who cuts trees. D.A person who protects the forest.
26. What did the author do when walking in the woods?
A.He climbed up an oak tree. B.He planted a little oak acorn.
C.He came across a book he had ever read. D.He found some hungry deer and squirrels.
27.What is the best title for the text?
A.Accepting the gift of life. B.Taking a walk in the woods.
C.Experiencing a typical working day. D.Refreshing the unforgettable memory.
C
China is determined to land its astronauts on the moon and set up a scientific station there, according to a project leader.
Zhou Yanfei, deputy chief designer of China's manned space programme, said on Friday that China wishes to use the manned lunar missions to carry out scientific surveys and technology demonstrations, explore ways to develop lunar resources and strengthen the nation's space capabilities.
"A new wave of lunar explorations has been emerging in the world, with participants aiming to make sustainable missions to deepen knowledge of the moon and exploit resources there, " he said in a report delivered at the 2020 China Space Conference in Fuzhou, Fujian Province. "Unlike other nations, China must depend on its own science and technology to realize our goals.
The country is independently able to land its astronauts on the moon because it has the technologies, a group of well-trained, innovative professionals and high-efficiency research and management systems, Zhou said. "However, our existing carrier rockets can't perform landing missions to the moon because they are not powerful enough. The Shenzhou-series manned spaceships are not suitable for lunar expeditions. We don't have a lunar landing capsule, " he said. Our ground support system was designed for operations in low- Earth orbit rather than on the lunar surface.
To solve the problem we set out to produce a powerful launch vehicle, Zhou said researchers thought about two approaches—making a new heavy-lift rocket, or adjusting the next-generation rocket designed to carry astronauts, which is under development.
Researchers prefer the latter approach because it would be easier to design and make and would become operational earlier.
The new rocket is being designed at the China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology. Its main body will be 87 meters tall, with a diameter of 5 meters, which would make it almost twice as tall as the Long March5 currently the biggest of China's rockets.
28. Which is NOT the goal of the manned lunar mission?
A.To explore lunar resources. B.To perform scientific experiments.
C.To set up a scientific station. D.To strengthen the national space power.
29. What is the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A.China is not capable of pursuing the manned lunar programme.
B.There are still difficulties in pursuing the manned lunar programme.
C.There are a series of steps in the manned lunar programme.
D.It is manageable to carry out the manned lunar programme.
30. What can we infer from the passage?
A.Nations must depend on themselves to explore the moon.
B.The Long March 5 is the biggest of China's rocket.
C.The newly-designed rocket will not carry astronauts.
D.Producing a powerful launch vehicle is the most difficult part in the programme.
31. What do the figures in the last paragraph imply?
A.The new rocket is big enough to perform landing missions.
B.The new rocket is being made to launch lunar spaceship.
C.China's scientific power has improved.
D.The new rocket will be put into use soon.
D
An international team of researchers led by Stanford University have developed rechargeable batteries that can store up to six times more charge than ones that are currently commercially available.
The advance, detailed in a new paper published on Aug. 25 in the journal Nature, could accelerate the use of rechargeable batteries and puts battery researchers one step closer toward achieving two top stated goals of their field: creating a high-performance rechargeable battery that could enable cellphones to be charged only once a week instead of daily and electric vehicles that can travel six times farther without a recharge.
The new so-called alkali metal-chlorine batteries（碱金属氯电池）, developed by a team of researchers led by Stanford chemistry Professor Hongjie Dai and doctoral candidate Guanzhou Zhu, rely on the back-and-forth chemical transition from sodium chloride（Na/Cl2）or lithium chloride（Li/Cl2）to chlorine. When electrons travel from one side of a rechargeable battery to the other, recharging makes the chemistry return to its original state to await another use. Non-rechargeable batteries have no such luck. Once running out, their chemistry cannot be restored. "A rechargeable battery is a bit like a rocking chair. It tips in one direction, but then rocks back when you add electricity," Dai explained. "What we have here is a high-rocking rocking chair."
The researchers imagine their batteries one day being used in situations where frequent recharging is not practical or desirable, such as in satellites or remote sensors. Many otherwise usable satellites are now floating in orbit, failing to function due to their dead batteries. Future satellites equipped with long-lived rechargeable batteries could be fitted with solar chargers, extending their usefulness many times over.
For now, though, the first working design they've developed might still be suitable for use in small everyday electronics like hearing aids or remote controls. For consumer electronics or electrical vehicles, much more work remains to engineer the battery structure, increase the energy density（密度）, scale up the batteries and increase the number of cycles.
32. Why does the author mention "two top stated goals" in paragraph 2?
A.To clarify the cause of the research. B.To describe the process of the research.
C.To explain the purpose of the research. D.To illustrate the significance of the research.
33. How did Professor Dai explain how the new batteries work?
A.By listing figures. B.By giving an example.
C.By making a comparison. D.By drawing a conclusion.
34. What can we learn from the passage?
A.New rechargeable batteries have been put to use.
B.New rechargeable batteries will likely be used in remote sensors.
C.Non-rechargeable batteries can return the chemistry to its original state.
D.Solar chargers are of no benefit to rechargeable batteries in future satellites.
35. What is the author's attitude to the new batteries?
A.Objective. B.Unconcerned.
C.Doubtful. D.Ambiguous.

Slow Walking and Aging
Getting old might not be something that ’ s yet to cross your mind .___36___, so it ’ s something I ’ m sure we ’ d all like to control. That ’ s why scientists are constantly seeking out evidence
that will show us what we need to do to achieve longevity .
__37__.To walk 10,000 steps a day or do three 10-minute brisk walks plays an effective role in
our health.But the latest research might put a spring in your step if you’re accustomed to walking
at a fast pace. That ’ s because the speed at which people walk is a sign of how much their brains
as well as their bodies, are aging .
According to the result of those tested, slower walkers tended to show signs of accelerated aging .Their lungs, teeth and immune systems were in worse shape than those who walked faster. __38__. Professor Terrie E. Moffitt has proved that a slow walk is a problem sign decades before old age .
This might be seen as a wake-up call for people with a slower gait (步态)who might feel it ’ s time to work out and get fitter . But it might be too late; researchers were able to predict the
walking speed of 45-year-olds using the results of intelligence, language and motor skills tests
from when they were aged three .__39___.
So , what ’ s the point of knowing that a slower walking pace might mean a smaller brain ? Well ,researchers say measuring walking speed at a younger age , and understanding what this might
mean, could be a way of testing treatments to slow human aging .__40___. Any step we can take to prolong a good mental and physical state is a no-brainer !
A. Everyone wishes to keep young
B. There are various ways to exercise
C. We all know that regular exercise is good for us
D. But unavoidably , all of us do get older day by day
E. This might help us make lifestyle changes while we ’ re still young and healthy
F. In other words , some signs even in early life will show who will live younger and healthier
G. To add insult to injury , the result also indicated the faces of slower walkers looked older and
they had smaller brains

And then the day came and I left my home and my loved ones. I was alone in a country where the food was 51 and the streets were unfamiliar. I had no idea whether I would be able to __52__ everything that this very strange environment would throw at me.
I spent five months in Vietnam, teaching, exploring and laughing. I'd learned to 53 myself, my skills, my abilities and my decisions. I returned home 54 , even to myself, let alone to others. The 55 that had controlled my life and the self-doubt wore off.

Having taken part in the inter-school storytelling championship for two times, I was a shining
star of my school. When it came to choosing the right candidate to participate in such competit-
tions, I was always the first choice . Naturally , I was once again selected to represent my school
in the approaching contest this year .
Upon hearing the news that I was chosen again , my classmates and friends acknowledged
that I would undoubtedly emerge as the champion again . Consequently , I became conceited. I
was so proud that I neglected the importance of practicing for the contest . A week before the
contest , my teacher Ms . Sara asked ,＂ Selena , would you like to stand in front of the class to
rehearse for the contest?"She had tutored me in the past two competitions and knew how impor-
tant practice was ." Just imagine you are on stage in the presence of the audience,＂ she added.
"I’ m sorry , Ms . Sara ,” I replied.＂ I have a sore throat .＂
This was the usual lie I would tell whenever my teacher requested me to practice in front of
the class. I always found excuses to avoid doing it because I believed that I was the best and the
practice was unnecessary. On one occasion, I even told Ms . Sara not to worry too much as I was well prepared for the contest . In fact, I did everything but practice my script. I only managed to
glance briefly through the story the day before the contest. As the best storyteller among the stu-
dents of the local secondary schools , I was too vain to practice and expected everything to be
fine.The contest was being held in the local community hall. On the day of the contest , the hall
was packed . My school teachers and principal were there along with many of my classmates and
schoolmates. I was the eighth contestant out of twenty in total. Those who spoke before me did
extremely well . Seeing their fascinating and outstanding performance, I began to lose confidence
in myself . My palms sweated heavily and I started to feel nervous .

That is why it was so hard for me when I found myself to be a lumberjack as a young man. It wasn't just the back-breaking work, the long hours, and the low pay. It was also seeing day after day beautiful trees that had grown for half a century being sawed up and cut into flooring. Still, I couldn't help but think that they looked a lot more lovely as living trees reaching up to Heaven than as dead flooring lying under my feet.
One afternoon after a long day's work, I was feeling particularly down and depressed. I decided to take a walk in the woods like I had as a boy in hopes of lifting my spirits and calming my soul. As I walked along with my aching back and tired body, I longed for those happy childhood days. I dropped my head, frustrated, and looked down at the dirt. That is when I saw it: a single, red oak acorn（橡子）that had somehow survived the hungry deer and squirrels all winter long. Then I remembered something I'd read once: "Eventually an acorn becomes a forest!" I smiled, bent down, dug up a handful of dirt, and planted that little acorn, feeling peace and joy warming my heart. Then I walked back home happy once again to be a part of God's green earth.
In this life we all start out as an acorn, but whether we become a forest or not is up to us. God gives us this glorious life here to grow, lean, laugh, love, share, smile, and help others to do the same. Embrace this gift of life. Use it to every day, stretch your soul towards Heaven and create a mighty forest of love.

China is determined to land its astronauts on the moon and set up a scientific station there, according to a project leader.
Zhou Yanfei, deputy chief designer of China's manned space programme, said on Friday that China wishes to use the manned lunar missions to carry out scientific surveys and technology demonstrations, explore ways to develop lunar resources and strengthen the nation's space capabilities.
"A new wave of lunar explorations has been emerging in the world, with participants aiming to make sustainable missions to deepen knowledge of the moon and exploit resources there, " he said in a report delivered at the 2020 China Space Conference in Fuzhou, Fujian Province. "Unlike other nations, China must depend on its own science and technology to realize our goals.
The country is independently able to land its astronauts on the moon because it has the technologies, a group of well-trained, innovative professionals and high-efficiency research and management systems, Zhou said. "However, our existing carrier rockets can't perform landing missions to the moon because they are not powerful enough. The Shenzhou-series manned spaceships are not suitable for lunar expeditions. We don't have a lunar landing capsule, " he said. Our ground support system was designed for operations in low- Earth orbit rather than on the lunar surface.
To solve the problem we set out to produce a powerful launch vehicle, Zhou said researchers thought about two approaches—making a new heavy-lift rocket, or adjusting the next-generation rocket designed to carry astronauts, which is under development.
Researchers prefer the latter approach because it would be easier to design and make and would become operational earlier.
The new rocket is being designed at the China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology. Its main body will be 87 meters tall, with a diameter of 5 meters, which would make it almost twice as tall as the Long March5 currently the biggest of China's rockets.
28. Which is NOT the goal of the manned lunar mission?
A.To explore lunar resources. B.To perform scientific experiments.
C.To set up a scientific station. D.To strengthen the national space power.
29. What is the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A.China is not capable of pursuing the manned lunar programme.
B.There are still difficulties in pursuing the manned lunar programme.
C.There are a series of steps in the manned lunar programme.
D.It is manageable to carry out the manned lunar programme.
30. What can we infer from the passage?
A.Nations must depend on themselves to explore the moon.
B.The Long March 5 is the biggest of China's rocket.
C.The newly-designed rocket will not carry astronauts.
D.Producing a powerful launch vehicle is the most difficult part in the programme.
31. What do the figures in the last paragraph imply?
A.The new rocket is big enough to perform landing missions.
B.The new rocket is being made to launch lunar spaceship.
C.China's scientific power has improved.
D.The new rocket will be put into use soon.

An international team of researchers led by Stanford University have developed rechargeable batteries that can store up to six times more charge than ones that are currently commercially available.
The advance, detailed in a new paper published on Aug. 25 in the journal Nature, could accelerate the use of rechargeable batteries and puts battery researchers one step closer toward achieving two top stated goals of their field: creating a high-performance rechargeable battery that could enable cellphones to be charged only once a week instead of daily and electric vehicles that can travel six times farther without a recharge.
The new so-called alkali metal-chlorine batteries（碱金属氯电池）, developed by a team of researchers led by Stanford chemistry Professor Hongjie Dai and doctoral candidate Guanzhou Zhu, rely on the back-and-forth chemical transition from sodium chloride（Na/Cl2）or lithium chloride（Li/Cl2）to chlorine. When electrons travel from one side of a rechargeable battery to the other, recharging makes the chemistry return to its original state to await another use. Non-rechargeable batteries have no such luck. Once running out, their chemistry cannot be restored. "A rechargeable battery is a bit like a rocking chair. It tips in one direction, but then rocks back when you add electricity," Dai explained. "What we have here is a high-rocking rocking chair."
The researchers imagine their batteries one day being used in situations where frequent recharging is not practical or desirable, such as in satellites or remote sensors. Many otherwise usable satellites are now floating in orbit, failing to function due to their dead batteries. Future satellites equipped with long-lived rechargeable batteries could be fitted with solar chargers, extending their usefulness many times over.
For now, though, the first working design they've developed might still be suitable for use in small everyday electronics like hearing aids or remote controls. For consumer electronics or electrical vehicles, much more work remains to engineer the battery structure, increase the energy density（密度）, scale up the batteries and increase the number of cycles.
32. Why does the author mention "two top stated goals" in paragraph 2?
A.To clarify the cause of the research. B.To describe the process of the research.
C.To explain the purpose of the research. D.To illustrate the significance of the research.
33. How did Professor Dai explain how the new batteries work?
A.By listing figures. B.By giving an example.
C.By making a comparison. D.By drawing a conclusion.
34. What can we learn from the passage?
A.New rechargeable batteries have been put to use.
B.New rechargeable batteries will likely be used in remote sensors.
C.Non-rechargeable batteries can return the chemistry to its original state.
D.Solar chargers are of no benefit to rechargeable batteries in future satellites.
35. What is the author's attitude to the new batteries?
A.Objective. B.Unconcerned.
C.Doubtful. D.Ambiguous.

Slow Walking and Aging
Getting old might not be something that ’ s yet to cross your mind .___36___, so it ’ s something I ’ m sure we ’ d all like to control. That ’ s why scientists are constantly seeking out evidence
that will show us what we need to do to achieve longevity .
__37__.To walk 10,000 steps a day or do three 10-minute brisk walks plays an effective role in
our health.But the latest research might put a spring in your step if you’re accustomed to walking
at a fast pace. That ’ s because the speed at which people walk is a sign of how much their brains
as well as their bodies, are aging .
According to the result of those tested, slower walkers tended to show signs of accelerated aging .Their lungs, teeth and immune systems were in worse shape than those who walked faster. __38__. Professor Terrie E. Moffitt has proved that a slow walk is a problem sign decades before old age .
This might be seen as a wake-up call for people with a slower gait (步态)who might feel it ’ s time to work out and get fitter . But it might be too late; researchers were able to predict the
walking speed of 45-year-olds using the results of intelligence, language and motor skills tests
from when they were aged three .__39___.
So , what ’ s the point of knowing that a slower walking pace might mean a smaller brain ? Well ,researchers say measuring walking speed at a younger age , and understanding what this might
mean, could be a way of testing treatments to slow human aging .__40___. Any step we can take to prolong a good mental and physical state is a no-brainer !
A. Everyone wishes to keep young
B. There are various ways to exercise
C. We all know that regular exercise is good for us
D. But unavoidably , all of us do get older day by day
E. This might help us make lifestyle changes while we ’ re still young and healthy
F. In other words , some signs even in early life will show who will live younger and healthier
G. To add insult to injury , the result also indicated the faces of slower walkers looked older and
they had smaller brains

Having taken part in the inter-school storytelling championship for two times, I was a shining
star of my school. When it came to choosing the right candidate to participate in such competit-
tions, I was always the first choice . Naturally , I was once again selected to represent my school
in the approaching contest this year .
Upon hearing the news that I was chosen again , my classmates and friends acknowledged
that I would undoubtedly emerge as the champion again . Consequently , I became conceited. I
was so proud that I neglected the importance of practicing for the contest . A week before the
contest , my teacher Ms . Sara asked ,＂ Selena , would you like to stand in front of the class to
rehearse for the contest?"She had tutored me in the past two competitions and knew how impor-
tant practice was ." Just imagine you are on stage in the presence of the audience,＂ she added.
"I’ m sorry , Ms . Sara ,” I replied.＂ I have a sore throat .＂
This was the usual lie I would tell whenever my teacher requested me to practice in front of
the class. I always found excuses to avoid doing it because I believed that I was the best and the
practice was unnecessary. On one occasion, I even told Ms . Sara not to worry too much as I was well prepared for the contest . In fact, I did everything but practice my script. I only managed to
glance briefly through the story the day before the contest. As the best storyteller among the stu-
dents of the local secondary schools , I was too vain to practice and expected everything to be
fine.The contest was being held in the local community hall. On the day of the contest , the hall
was packed . My school teachers and principal were there along with many of my classmates and
schoolmates. I was the eighth contestant out of twenty in total. Those who spoke before me did
extremely well . Seeing their fascinating and outstanding performance, I began to lose confidence
in myself . My palms sweated heavily and I started to feel nervous .
