A
Nobody likes to spend money on a new book only to face disappointment when it doesn’t live up to your expectations. Here are the best book review sites to help you avoid buying books that you’ll regret reading.
Goodreads
Goodreads is the leading online community for book lovers. If you want some inspiration for which novel or biography to read next, this is the best book review site to visit. There are an endless number of user-generated reading lists to explore.
Fantasy Book Review
Fantasy Book Review should be high on the list for anyone who is a fan of fantasy works. The book review site publishes reviews for both children’s books and adults’ books. It has a section on the top fantasy books of all time.
Booklist
Booklist is a print magazine that also offers an online portal(在线门户网站). Trusted experts from the American Library Association write all the book reviews. You can see parts of reviews for different books. However, to read them in full, you will need to subscribe (订阅).
YouTube
YouTube is not the type of place that immediately springs to mind when you think of the best book review sites online. However, there are several engaging YouTube channels that frequently offer opinions on books they’ve read.
Although it’s easy to be attracted by an impressive book cover, it’s always best to have a quick look at the book reviews before actually buying a copy. This way, you can save your money and spend it on the books that you’ll be proud to display on your shelves for a long time.

B
When you set a foot outside of your door to drop trash, go to a social event or go for a walk, thoughts like “I hope I don’t see anyone I know” or “please don’t talk to me” may run through your mind. I’ve also said such things to myself. Sometimes the last thing you want to do is to talk with someone, especially someone new.
Why do we go out of our ways to avoid people? Do we think meeting new people is a waste of time? Or are we just lazy, thinking that meeting someone new really is a trouble?
Communication is the key to life. We have been told that many times. Take the past generations, like our parents, for example. They seem to take full advantage of that whole “communication” idea because they grew up talking face to face while Generation-Y grew up staring at screens. We spend hours of our days sitting on Facebook. We send messages to our friends and think about all of the things we want to say to certain people that we don't have the courage to do in reality.
Nowadays, we are so caught up in our little circle of friends—our comfort zone. We love it that they laugh at our jokes, understand our feelings and can read our minds. Most importantly, they know when we want to be alone. They just get us.
Holding a conversation with someone new means agreeing with things that you don't really believe and being someone you think they want you to be—it is, as I said before, a trouble. It takes up so much energy, and at some point or another, it is too tiring.
But meeting new people is important. Life is too short, so meet all the people you can meet, make the effort to go out and laugh. Remember, every “hello” leads to a smile—and a smile is worth a lot.
24. What do we learn about the author?
A. He likes to be alone. B. He feels stressed out lately.
C. He’s active in attending social events. D. He used to be afraid of talking to others.
25. What’s the problem of Generation-Y in the author’s eyes?
A. They rely on the Internet to socialize. B. They are less confident in themselves.
C. They have difficulty in communicating. D. They are unwilling to make new friends.
26. Why do many young people avoid meeting new people?
A. They think it troublesome. B. They are busy with their study.
C. They fear to disappoint their friends. D. They want to do meaningful work.
27.Why does the author write the text?
A. To stress the importance of friends.
B. To give tips on how to meet new people.
C. To encourage people to meet new people.
D. To display the disadvantages of Generation-Y.

C
We’ve all heard the stories of an actor’s struggles before a career breakthrough: living a hard life, working part time, being a couch potato before getting that major role. Shelby, the star of “A Dog’s Way Home,” has a hard-luck story that could top them all. Before her big break, she was living in a landfill (垃圾填埋场), looking through rubbish for her next meal.
Shelby’s big break came in April 2017, when animal-control officer Megan Buhler was driving in Cheatham County, Tennessee. Out on an unrelated call, Buhler found what she recalled was an obviously scared puppy appearing from the landfill. “I just said, ‘Oh, come here, baby,’ ” said Buhler. “She was so scared, but she came right up to me, and I was able to put her in my truck.” The pair headed to the county animal shelter, where the staff began calling the new resident Baby Girl.
Buhler and others didn’t know that 3,200 kilometers away, Hollywood was looking for a dog to play Bella in a film written by Cathryn Michon. The find-a-Bella job went to Teresa Ann Miller. Her job was to search shelters nationwide for a dog that could play Bella. One day, Miller found Baby Girl’s adoption photo. “Honestly, it was a really good picture, and she was flat-out smiling,” Miller said. Then she met Baby Girl, and tested her on personality and the ability to respond to simple commands. After the test, she adopted Baby Girl from the shelter, renamed her Shelby and took her to California for training. Miller and Shelby trained for just over three months before filming began. Then they were together each day on the set.
Most of the film’s reviews have praised Shelby’s performance. Variety made the comments “an amazing dog, perfect performance!”
Shelby has come a long way from the landfill. But Buhler said she saw Shelby recently and needed only a second to compare the movie star with the dog she found from piles of trash. “She’s exactly the same,” Buhler said.
28. Where did Buhler get the puppy?
A. In a landfill. B. In an animal shelter.
C. In a training house. D. In a film studio.              
29. What finally helped Baby Girl get the big role in the film?
A. Her adoption picture. B. Her flat-out smiling.
C. Her personality and ability. D. Her terrible experiences.
30. What does Buhler probably mean by saying “She’s is exactly the same” in the last paragraph?
A. Shelby returned to where she was found.
B. It cost a lot to change Shelby’s fate.
C. Shelby’s inner qualities hasn’t changed.
D. She was really excited to see the dog again.
31. What is probably the best title of this passage?
A. The Success of “A Dog’s Way Home”.
B. From a Landfill Puppy to a Movie Star.
C. The Trainer and Her Star Dog.
D. Shelby’s Hard-luck and miserable Story.
 
D
Imagine a way to produce meat without killing animals. Instead of raising livestock on farms, Uma Valeti, a cardiologist, and co-founder of Upside Foods, dreamed of a way to “grow” meat by cultivating (培养) animal cells (细胞).
The idea for what's now called “cultivated” meat came to Valeti when he was working with heart attack patients at the Mayo Clinic more than 15 years ago, growing human heart cells in a lab. It should be possible to grow meat with similar science, he realized. Scientists could take cells from an animal by a needle biopsy (切片检查), place them in tanks, feed them the nutrients they need to reproduce, including fats, sugar, amino acids and vitamins, and end up with meat.
It has taken years of experimentation by a crew of biologists, biochemists and engineers to turn that idea into a product ready to eat. Now the company is awaiting a greenlight from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to begin selling its first cultivated meat products, including a chicken fillet (without bone).
After four years of talks with regulators at the FDA, Valeti expects this could happen “in the very near future.” When it does, Upside's production facility in Emeryville, California, will be able to produce over 50,000 pounds of cultivated meat products per year.
For Valeti, the potential benefits of cultivated meat are too important not to try to overcome the current obstacles. He sees a future with a better choice to the current system of producing meat, and he's determined to create it. Valeti says, at last, as a doctor he might have been able to help a few thousand patients during his career. But, by taking the great step to cultivated meat, with its potential promise to surpass meat production, he believes he can have a larger impact. “This could literally affect billions of human lives and save potentially trillions of animal lives,” Valeti says.
32. What made Valeti come to the idea of making cultivated meat?
A. His heart attack patients’ inspiring advice.
B. The inspiration from growing human heart cell.
C. His dreaming about a way to grow meat.
D. The thought of helping his heart attack patients.
33. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A. The company is waiting for the permission from FDA.
B. The idea of cultivated meat turned into a product easily.
C. Chicken fillets will be very popular in the future .
D. FDA is a big company that makes and sells cultivated meat.
34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The cultivated meat is very popular among young people.
B. Valeti has helped many patients with cultivated meat.
C. Valeti is producing cultivated meat to avoid killing many animals.
D. It will take decades before enormous cultivated meat is produced.
35. What’s Valeti’s attitude towards the future of cultivated meat?
A. Negative. B. Uncertain. C. Critical. D. Positive.

Do you have an important or favorite memory from the past? Perhaps it was clapping for goals. 36 By sharing our memories, we can feel closer to other people and more positive about what we’ve been through.
How does memory work?
Scientists believe there are two levels of memory. One is short-term or working memory, which stays in your brain for only 15-30 seconds. The other level is long-term or permanent memory, which can be stored for days, months or even years.
37 Motor-skill memories help you remember how to ride a bike; factual memories help you to recognize faces. These types of memories can be short or long term. Emotional memories recall how you felt about something and can be strong and powerful. Remembering the sadness of missing your friends during lockdown, and being happy and excited to see them again afterwards, are emotional memories. 38
Why are memories important?
Memories tell you the story of yourself. Information such as which school you go to and who your friends are is stored inside your brain, ready for when you need it. 39 “If I miss seeing my grandparents, I remember staying with them in Devon. It makes me feel happy, like when I was there.” Heidi, 12, told The Week.
40 When people think of shared experience, what usually comes to mind is being with close others, such as friends or family, and talking with them. By telling a funny or embarrassing story--perhaps the time the dog stole the Christmas ham--we share feelings of joy or overcoming difficulties. By sharing similar or not-so-similar experiences,we understand one another better.
A. There are many uses for memory.
B. Memories can help your own well-being.
C. Shared memories can connect you to others.
D. Time cannot erase his memories of the past.
E. Memories can also help you manage feelings.
F. Or it was seeing rainbow pictures in the windows.
G. They are long term and can sometimes last a lifetime.

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。

When I was 13, I climbed my first mountain — a fairly gentle 3,900-foot hilltop near where I live. And later it became my hobby.
I often go climbing with my friend Mel Olsen. Two years ago, on December 30, when I was 16, she and I drove to Oregon to climb 11,240-foot Mount Hood.
That day, we started at 3 a.m. The temperature was about 14 degrees, and we wore thick clothes. Along the way, we met two other climbers, and the four of us continued on together.
After about five hours, we reached Devil’s Kitchen, a place at about 10,000 feet, just before the final push to the top. By this point, the wind conditions were terrible. The other climbers decided to turn back, but Mel and I went ahead.
The track we followed grew narrower and steeper (陡峭的). At around 9 a.m., we reached an ice step. It was about three or four feet tall and very steep. I volunteered to go first. I placed my left foot on the ice step. Confident I was safe, I put my full weight on it. Suddenly, I heard a crack, and a whole sheet of ice broke off the step, right under my foot.
In an instant, I fell backward. I could hear Mel calling my name as I rolled down the mountain as if I were a character in a video game. I remember thinking, This is it. You’re done.
After a few seconds, I came to a stop on a shallow incline (斜面) just above the Devil’s Kitchen. I’d fallen 600 feet. My clothes were shredded (撕碎), my helmet was broken, and my face was bloodied. I was suffering from a sharp, serious pain in my left leg.

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.
As Mel made her way down, I shouted for help, and other climbers came to assist me. ______ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
