    In late May, storms flooded streets in Florida. The floods made cars sink and turned roads into brown rivers. Flash flooding can happen when storm drains get blocked up and, especially during hurricanes, overflow into streets. It’s the leading cause of weather-related deaths.

A team of local middle-school students has a plan to stop this ongoing problem. Alyssa, Bianca and Jose are sixth-graders. The Doral students designed a device to warn city workers when and where there is a danger of flooding. The team is one of five grand-prize winners of the Samsung Solve for Tomorrow Contest. The contest asked for science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) solutions to the biggest challenge facing a school community.

“I’ve been living here my entire life, and all of us have encountered problems with flooding,” says Bianca. “We knew that was the problem we were going to tackle.”

The students’ device uses a laser system called lidar, which stands for “light detection and ranging.” The device, if approved by the city government, could be attached to Doral’s 2,575 storm and manhole drains — one device per drain. If a drain gets blocked with sediment (沉积物), the device could send a warning message to the city’s stormwater management office. Then the stormwater manager could send someone to clean the drain.

Starting in March, the school was closed, so team meetings went virtual. Luckily, says Bianca, “We already had a prototype device, and we just had to adjust it some more ” They also had to pitch their idea virtually to contest judges.

Twenty finalist teams were cut down to the five grand-prize-winning teams. Each of the five teams won $100 000 for technology and supplies for their science classrooms. “We put m a lot of effort and had to trust each other and that each one knew what they were talking about,” says Alyssa.

24．How does the author start the text?

A．With an image.

B．With some figures.

C．By raising questions.

D．By stating a phenomenon.

25．What can be known about the Doral students’ team?

A．It is made up of five middle school students.

B．Its aim is to solve the problem of the drain flooding,

C．It has won first prize in the Samsung Solve for Tomorrow Contest.

D．Its members are trained in science, technology, engineering and math.

26．What is the author’s intention of quoting Bianca’s words in Para. 3?

A．To list their challenges.

B．To explore their motivation.

C．To express their determination.

D．To prove their responsibility.

27．What is the main function of the students’ device?

A．To inform the authorities when a drain is blocked.

B．To arrange for someone to clean the drain.

C．To prevent the drain from being blocked.

D．To help clear away sediment in the drain.

C

    Texas——US President George W.Bush and Russian President Vladimir Putin failed to bridge their differences over a key arms control treaty last week, but that didn’t stop them from backslapping（喧闹的狂欢） as they ended a summit.

The two leaders also offered differing interpretations of the fate of nuclear warheads to be removed from missiles under arms reductions they each announced last week.Bush said he intended to destroy the warheads, but Putin said their fate should be negotiated.

The two men untied on the need for Northern Alliance forces——to allow for a broad based government that respects all parties there.

Bush and Putin had spent the night at Bush’s ranch.Despite the rain, the rural environment and friendly company appeared to have worked its magic.They slapped on the back and joked, at one point teasing each other about whether it is better to visit Texas in the heat of August or Siberia in winter.

Analysts say the dramatic warming in US-Russian relation could herald（预示） an era of pragmatism（务实的想法或做法） in global affairs as the two old rivals finally end decades of hostility and become friends.

“Washington and Moscow are no longer playing the ‘big game’ against each other, but with each other,” said Karl Heniz Kamp, an analyst at the Konrad Adenanaer Foundation，a German think tank.

28．It can be concluded that President Bush and President Putin__________.

A．didn’t agree on key arms control treaty

B．offered different explanations of the future of nuclear warheads under arms reductions

C．neither A or B

D．both A and B

29．The reason why the two men joined together is that.

A．they were needed by the Northern Alliance forces

B．they had taken the advice given by Karl Heniz Kamp, an analyst of German think tank.

C．they had already been partners

D．they had no different opinions on everything

30．The warming of US-Russian relations indicates that_______.

A．the two persons end hostility and become friends

B．US can benefit a lot from global affairs

C．there will be an end to all the armies of the world

D．it is a turning point to words being practical in global affairs

31．What the two men teased about shows that___________.

A．they appeared friendly but in fact they didn’t

B．they just made fun of each other

C．they are friendly and humorous

D．they invited each other to their countries in the bad weather

D

    Wildlife has been greatly threatened in the modern age. There are species that are disappearing every day. The white-naped crane is a typical example. So scientists are trying their best to save the species from going out of existence.

Chris and Tim work at a zoo, helping endangered cranes with — their reproduction. Emma, a female crane, has been in their care since she arrived in 2004.

Born at an international crane foundation, Emma was raised by human caretakers. This led to an unexpected consequence, though she had a wonderful time there. Emma had never taken herself as a crane and become attached to humans. She refused to live with male cranes, and even had a reputation for killing some of them, which made it impossible for her to become a mother.

However, the two zookeepers didn't want to see the extinction of this precious species. With their patience and efforts, they successfully developed a combination of artificial breeding and natural reproduction. This enabled Emma to give birth to five baby cranes.

The two keepers are proud of their productive work. But before they can be assured, more efforts must be made, because the population of the crane in the wild is on the decline, and many other species appear headed toward extinction. After all, not everyone has realized that wildlife has thoughts, feelings, and most importantly, equal rights to survive.

How can we bridge the ever-widening gap that separates us from other animals? Chris and Tim offered us the answer: human beings took it for granted that their brains held all the solutions, but maybe their hearts can be a better guide.

32．Which one is not true about Emma?

A．She was an endangered crane. B．She was cared for by Chris and Tim in 2005.

C．She was unwilling to live with male cranes. D．She was famous for protecting male cranes.

33．What does the expression “become attached to humans” in paragraphs mean?

A．Had an affection for humans. B．Become popular with humans.

C．Become familiar with humans. D．Become concerned about humans.

34．What enabled Emma to be delivered of baby cranes?

A．Artificial breeding. B．Natural reproduction.

C．Zookeepers’ patience and efforts. D．Combining artificial breeding with natural reproduction.

35．What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?

A．Human beings are absolutely more powerful than animals.

B．No one has realized animals' equal rights to survive.

C．Two keepers have confirmed their success in protecting the crane from extinction.

D．People's love and efforts may help narrow the gap between them and animals.

阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（一个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

Freedom and Jeff

Freedom and I have been together 10 years this summer. She came in as a baby in 2011 with two 61． (break) wings, thin and dirty. We made the decision to give her a chance at life, so I took her to the vet's office. From then on, I was always around her. We had her in a huge dog carrier with the top off, and it was loaded up with shredded newspaper for her to lay in. I used to sit and talk to her, urging her to live, to fight and she would lay there looking at me with those big brown eyes. We also had to tube feed her for weeks. This went on for 4-6 weeks, and by then she still couldn't stand. It got to the point 62． the decision was made to euthanize (安乐死) her if she couldn't stand in a week.

She was going to be put down that Friday, and I was supposed to come in on that Thursday afternoon. I didn't want to go to the center that Thursday, 63． I couldn't bear the thought of her being euthanized, but I went anyway and when I walked in everyone was grinning from ear to ear. I went immediately back to her cage; and there she was, standing on her own, a big beautiful eagle. She was ready to live. I was just about in tears by then. That was a very good day. We knew she could never fly, so the director asked me to glove train her.

In the spring of 2013, I was diagnosed 64． non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (淋巴瘤). I had stage 3, which is not good, so I wound up doing eight months of chemo (化疗). Lost the hair- the whole bit. I missed a lot of work. 65． I felt good enough, I would go to Sarvey and take Freedom out for walks. Freedom would also come to me in my dreams and help me fight the cancer. This happened time and time again.

Fast forward to November 2013, I went in for my last checkup. I was told that if the cancer was not all gone after eight rounds of chemo, then my last option was 66． stem cell transplant. I went in Monday, and 1 was told that all the cancer was gone. Amazing!

So the first thing I did was 67． (get) up to Sarvey and take the big girl out for a walk. It was misty and cold. I went to her flight, and we went out front to the top of the hill. I hadn’t said a word to Freedom, but somehow she knew. She looked at me and wrapped both her wings around me to where I could feel them 68． (press) in on my back, and she touched my nose with her mouth and 69． (stare) into my eyes, and we just stood there like that for I didn't know how long. That was a magic moment. We 70． (be) soulmates since she came in. This is a very special bird.

I’m worried that you’ve been addicted to share pictures in WeChat circle recently. You even share all sort of photos in your daily life. Of course, WeChat makes better to understand each other and makes our life more colorful, which is very convenient for us to communicate with. However, there exist some potential trouble if we overshare. One serious problem is leaking privacy, that may cause a lot of trouble. Besides, oversharing can make others uncomfortably, for they think you are showing off.

Thus, neither should we post our personal information, or should we blindly add strangers to a list of friends. It’s much wise to set aside some time to accompany parents or do something more meaningful, such as reading books or taking exercise.

Born in America in June, 1880, Helen Keller is one of the greatest women in the 20th century.

When she was nineteen months old, she became blind and deaf because of a serious illness. From then on she lived in darkness and silence. When she was seven, her parents found a teacher, Miss Sullivan, for her. With Helen’s strong will and intelligence, combined with her teacher’s skill and patience, they succeeded. Helen Keller graduated from a college and got a degree. Later on she devoted all herself to helping the blind and deaf children.

Because of this, her spirits will never stop influencing me, pushing me to work hard to achieve my goal.
