On my way home a car ran over me and cut off my arms because it rushed so fast. Several days later when I woke up at the hospital, I realized I had to spend the rest of my life without arms. How sad I felt at that time! Even I was full of fears, but slowly I knew I had to face the fact and get over it. I couldn't get my arms back even though I cried every day.However, it's easier saying than doing. It took me nearly half a year to get out of the sadness completely. I got so much from my past story.From then on, I could treat my life with a normal mind. But in our daily life, I often see my classmates get worried about little things: They get a bad grade on a test; their bus comes late; they don't have a mobile phone, but others have, and so on. But I only enjoy life. I was lucky to realize from an accident. It is not a good idea to keep thinking about what you don't have. We should always think of what we have. So why are so many people unhappy? Someone may say, "My whole life would improve if I have a new car." But when you get the new car and what happens? For a whole week you are walking on air. Then you go right back to being unhappy.Happiness depends on what we have. It's in our heart. It's a state of mind. Even though you own the whole world, you may still feel unhappy. Happiness comes from mastering the art of appreciating (感激) and taking pleasure in what you really have.23．According to the story, the writer lost his ___________.  A．feet B．legs C．arms D．fingers24．Half a year after the accident, the writer ___________.  A．got his arms back B．treated his life normallyC．cried every day D．didn't get out of the sadness25．The writer shows opinion to the readers by _______________.  A．listing numbers B．giving examplesC．comparing D．telling stories26．What is the structure (结构) of the passage?  A． B．C． D．阅读下面材料，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。Chinese gamers now have to use their real names before playing Tencent's Honor of Kings (王者荣耀).Honor of Kings is the most popular computer game of all time in China. There are more than 200,000,000 people playing the game every month. Usually two teams of five fight against each other over the mobile phone.On September 15, 2018, Tencent used a registration system (注册系统) for Honor of Kings. Game users had to register their real name before playing the game. The new policy started from new users. With the help of the system, Tencent would first know if the gamer is an adult. If he or she turned out to be too young for the game, Tencent would limit（限制）the number of hours the young gamer could play each day.With this real name registration system, Tencent hopes to reduce video game addiction (上瘾) among children. The company also called on parents to watch closely their children's gaming activity.Earlier in September, the Ministry of Education said that it would limit the number of online games, and the time that young children could play online games. It is believed that this idea will bring good results in the future. There are more and more children with short eyesight in these years. This move might well help stop labor (劳动力) shortages in jobs that need good eyesight.27．Honor of Kings is the most popular computer game in ________.  A．Tencent company B．the Ministry of EducationC．China D．the world28．The underlined word "reduce" in the fifth paragraph most probably means ___________.  A．减少 B．增长 C．鼓励 D．测试29．The new policy for gamers is to ________.  A．beat Tencent company B．control parentsC．improve Honor of Kings D．help children30．The passage is most probably taken from __________.  A．a story book B．a newspaper C．a fashion magazine D．a traveling guide三、任务型阅读（本题有5小题；每小题1分，计5分）请阅读下面短文，从选项A-F中选出符合各段意思的小标题填入31-35小题的空格处。Sadness hits every person living on this planet.

The little dog has no home or food. It is so poor. As teenagers, we should help the poor. That is what teachers and parents always tell us to do. What's more, keeping the little dog doesn't cost much. It is not very difficult for Ben's family to do so. Last but not least, Ben will have a new good friend to get on with so that he will not feel lonely. I agree with Ben's parents. The little dog lives outside, so there can be germs and virus in its body. That is not good for Ben's families' health. Besides, the little dog is new in this family, so it may not be friendly to them and is hard to get on with. What's more, Ben and his family need to go to school or work. They don't have time to look after the dog.
