Phillis Wheatley was born in Gambia (in Africa) on May 8, 1753 and died in Boston on December 5,1784. When she was seven or eight, she was sold as a slave to John and Susanna Wheatley of Boston. She was named after the ship that brought her to America, The Phillis. The family supposed the girl—who was “suffering from a change of climate”, with “no other covering than a dirty carpet”—to be “about seven years old...from the circumstances of shedding (使脱落) her front teeth”.

Phillis was very intelligent. The Wheatley family taught her to read and write, and encouraged her to write poetry. Her first poem On Messrs. Hussey and Coffin was published when she was only twelve. In 1770, An Elegiac Poem, on the Death of That Celebrated Divine, and Eminent Servant of Jesus Christ, the Reverend and Learned George Whitefield made her famous. It was published in Boston, Newport, and Philadelphia.

When she was eighteen, Phillis and Mrs Wheatley tried to sell a collection containing twenty-eight of Phillis’ poems. Colonists (殖民者) did not want to buy poetry written by an African. Mrs Wheatley wrote to England to ask Countess(女伯爵) of Huntingdon for help. The countess was a wealthy supporter of the abolition (废除) of slavery. Phillis had Poems on various subjects, religious and moral published in England in 1773. This book made Phillis famous in England and the thirteen colonies. She wrote a poem for George Washington in 1775, and he praised her work. They met in 1776. Phillis supported independence for the colonies during the Revolutionary War.

After her master died, Phillis was freed. She married John Peters, a free black man, in 1778. She and her husband lost two children. John was put into prison for debt in 1784. Phillis and her remaining child died in December of 1784 and were buried in an unmarked grave.

Phillis was the first African American and the first slave in the United States to publish a book. She was the first African American woman to earn a living from her writing. Phillis’ poetry proved the abolitionists’ idea that blacks could be artistic and intellectual. Her achievements were used to support a growing antislavery movement.

24. The Wheatley family guessed the age of Phillis by ______.

A. her weight B. her clothes

C her skin color D. the condition of her teeth

25. It can be inferred from the text that Countess of Huntingdon ______.

A. lived on writing poems

B. helped Phillis get her writings published

C. supported independence for the colonies

D. felt surprised that Phillis could read and write

26. What can we learn from the text?

A. Phillis was only 18 years old when her first poem was published.

B. Phillis ’ first attempt at selling her poetry in America was illegal.

C. Phillis ’ husband was put into prison for debt in 1778.

D. Phillis finally became free after her master died.

27. The last paragraph is mainly about Phillis ’ ______.

A. marriage B. achievements

C. sufferings as a slave D. fight against slavery

C

For some people, music is no fun at all. About 4% of the population is what scientists call “amusic”. People who are amusic are born without the ability to enjoy musical notes. Amusic people often cannot tell the differences between two songs.

As a result, songs sound like noise to an amusic. Many amusics compare the sound of music to pieces of metal hitting each other. Life can be hard for amusics. In fact, most people cannot understand what it feels like to be amusic. Just going to a restaurant or a shopping center can be uncomfortable or even painful. That is why many amusics have to stay away from places where there is music. However, this can result in social loneliness. “I used to hate parties,” says Margaret, a seventy-year-old woman who only recently discovered that she was amusic. By studying people like Margaret, scientists are finally learning how to identify (辨别) this unusual condition.

Scientists say that the brains of amusics are different from those of people who can enjoy music. The difference is complex(复杂的), and it is not connected with poor hearing. Amusics can understand other non-musical sounds well. They also have no problems understanding common speech. Scientists compare amusics to people who just can ’t see certain colors.

Many amusics are happy when their condition is finally diagnosed (诊断). For years, Margaret felt embarrassed about her music problem. Now she knows that she is not alone. That makes it easier for her to explain. “When people invite me to a concert, I just say  ’No, thanks. I ’m amusic, ’” says Margaret.

28. Amusics are the people who ______.

A. like music B. are born unable to enjoy music

C. don ’t like music D. have poor listening

29. Life is hard for amusics mainly because ______.

A. they know they cannot enjoy music

B. they hate parties, restaurants or shopping centers

C. they try to stay at the place full of music

D. they are not understood by others

30. What causes amusics to be different from most people according to scientists?

A. Their lack of colors. B. Their poor hearing.

C. Their brains. D. Their problems with speech.

31. What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Some people ’s inability to enjoy music.

B. Some people ’ s musical ability.

C. Amusics ’ strange behaviors.

D. Diagnosis and treatment of amusics.

Sports account for a growing amount of income made on the sales of commercial time by television companies. Many television companies have used sports to attract viewers from particular sections of the general public, and then they have sold audiences to advertisers.

An attraction of sport programs for the major US media companies is that events are often held on Saturday and Sunday afternoons—the slowest time periods of the week for general television viewing. Sport events are the most popular weekend programs, especially among male viewers who may not watch much television at other times during the week. This means the television networks are able to sell advertising time at relatively high prices during what normally would be dead time for programming.

Media corporations also use sports to attract commercial sponsors that might take their advertising dollars elsewhere if television stations did not report certain sports. The people in the advertising departments of major corporations realize that sports attract male viewers. They also realize that most business travelers are men and that many men make family decisions on the purchases of computers, cars and life insurance.

Golf and tennis are special cases for television programming. These sports attract few viewers, and the ratings are unusually low. However, the audience for these sports is attractive to certain advertisers. It is made up of people from the highest income groups in the United States，including many lawyers and business managers. This is why television reporting of golf and tennis is sponsored by companies selling high-priced cars, business and personal computers, and holiday trips. This is also why the networks continue to carry these programs regardless of low ratings. Advertisers are willing to pay high fees to reach high-income consumers and those managers who make decisions to buy thousands of “company cars” and computers, with such viewers, these programs don ’t need high ratings to stay on the air.

32. What do we know about sport programs in the US?

A. They are only broadcast during weekends.

B. They struggle to attract female viewers.

C. They bring more money to the television networks.

D. They make weekends dead time for programming.

33. In many families, men usually make decisions on ______.

A. travel destinations B. grocery shopping

C. family sports budget D. expensive purchases

34. Why aren ’t the ratings important for golf and tennis programs?

A. These programs don ’t make money from advertisements.

B. These programs are sponsored to attract rich people.

C. These programs charge viewers high channel fees.

D. These programs aim at increasing the popularity of the sports.

35. What is the passage mainly about?

A. Male viewers dominate the TV audience.

B. Rich viewers contribute most to television companies.

C. Sports are gaining importance in advertising on television.

D. Commercial advertisers are the major sponsors of sport events.

Randy Heiss, 61, has lived in Bisbee, Arizona for more than three decades. Ten years ago, he and his wife lost their only child. They have no grandchildren.

The spot of red was what first caught Heiss’s attention on December 16, 2018. He was hiking the remote land behind his farm in a small town near the U. S.-Mexico border, and there lying on the grass was a balloon. He walked toward it with his dog, thinking he should pick it up and throw it away.

That’s when he noticed the balloon’s string was attached to a piece of paper. “Dayami,”it read on one side, in a child’s writing. Heiss flipped the paper over. On the back he saw a numbered list, all in Spanish. His Spanish wasn’t very good, but he could see it was a Christmas list!

Heiss was charmed. He suspected that a child had tried to send Santa Claus a Christmas wish list by balloon, something he used to do himself when he was a kid. Nobody had ever returned the letters Heiss had sent, but he wondered whether he could find the girl who had sent this one.

It would be difficult, but Heiss had a few clues. About 20 miles to the southwest, just across the border, was the city of Nogales, Mexico, with a population of about a quarter million. Based on the wind direction, he was almost sure that was where it came from. Heiss brought the note home to his wife, who is fluent in Spanish and helped him translate the list They determined that Dayami, probably a girl, had asked for a doll, a dollhouse.

They determined that Dayami, probably a girl, had asked for a doll, a dollhouse, doll clothes and art supplies. Heiss then posted his search about finding Dayami on Facebook, attaching photos, hoping some of his friends in Nogales might know the girl ’s family. A few days passed with no results. Heiss worried that time was running out before Christmas. On December 19, 2018, he decided to send a private Facebook message to Radio Xeny, an AM radio station based in Nogales. To his surprise, someone from the station called him back right away and promised him to post his search on the station’s Facebook page immediately.

注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

The next morning, Heiss awoke to a message from Radio Xeny.

Dayami ’s eyes were wide open with wonder.
