Every time I stare at the rows of jars filled with my parents' homemade tomato sauce, I wonder: "Should I really use one?"
I have been keeping these jars like precious treasures. No matter how hard I try to find alternatives, nothing compares. Store-bought sauce? It just doesn't taste right. Even if I try to recreate it, it will never taste the same.
While growing up, I hated the tomato season. My parents would use the basement to ripen the tomatoes they had collected locally in September. Like the other Italian families in the area, we would then take them to the garage when they were ripe enough. There they were cleaned and boiled.
Having been stewed, whole tomatoes were passed through my father's homemade machine to separate the sauce from the skins. Jars at the ready, we filled them with sauce and seasoning. The jars would be hot for a few days, sealed to keep their own heat. They would then be lined up and ready to use.
This tradition was hard to carry on when my father got ill. After being diagnosed with cancer in 2019, he spent most of his time in hospital. In September that year he came home, and on the weekend we decided to continue the tradition. I have glorious memories of that day as we once again made the sauce. It was a beautiful but short-lived moment. My father died soon after.
I can't keep these jars forever. But it doesn't make it any easier to open one. Every time I go to reach for one, something stops me. My mother, ever practical, is visiting us recently and just stares at them.
"You should use these or they will go to waste."
What will it feel like to use that last jar? It would mean the end of an era. Who knows? Maybe it's time to bring new traditions into life.
4、What stops the author from using the tomato sauce?
A. It has gone bad. B. He doesn't like tomato sauce.
C. He values it too much. D. He keeps it for future use.
5、What do Para.3 and Para.4 mainly talk about?
A. The tomato harvest. B. The homemade machine.
C. The fruitful tomato season. D. The making of tomato sauce.
6、What will the author most probably do next?
A. Open one jar. B. Keep the jars.
C. Collect tomatoes. D. Make tomato sauce.
7、Which of the following can describe the author?
A. Practical. B.Faithful. C.Affectionate. D. Sensitive.
With only about 1,000 pandas left in the world, China is desperately trying to clone the animal and save the endangered species. That's a move similar to what Texas A & M University researchers have been undertaking for the past five years in a project called Noah's Ark.
Noah's Ark is aimed at collecting eggs, embryos(胚胎), semen and DNA of endangered animals and storing them in liquid nitrogen. If certain species should become extinct, Dr. Duane Kraemer, a professor in Texas A & M's College of Veterinary Medicine, says there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.
It is estimated that as many as 2,000 species of mammals, birds, reptiles will become extinct in over 100 years. The panda, native only to China, is in danger of becoming extinct in the next 25 years.
This week, Chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a Japanese white rabbit. They are now trying to implant the embryo into a host animal. The entire procedure could take from three to five years to complete.
"The nuclear transfer(核子移植) of one species to another is not easy, and the lack of available panda eggs could be a major problem," Kraemer believes. "They will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy. It takes along time and it's difficult, but this could be groundbreaking science if it works. They are certainly not putting any live pandas at risk, so it is worth the effort," adds Kraemer, who is one of the leaders of the Project at Texas A & M, the first-ever attempt at cloning a dog.
"They are trying to do something that's never been done, and this is very similar to our work in Noah's Ark. We're both trying to save animals that face extinction. I certainly appreciate their effort and there's a lot we can learn from what they are attempting to do. It's a research that is very much needed."
8、What is the aim of Noah's Ark project?
A. To save endangered animals from dying out.
B. To make efforts to clone the endangered pandas.
C. To collect DNA of endangered animals to study.
D. To transfer the nuclear of one animal to another.
9、According to Professor Kraemer, the major problem in cloning pandas would be short of _____.
A. host animals B. enough money
C. qualified researchers D. available panda eggs
10、What can we learn from the passage?
A. Scientists try to implant a panda's egg into a rabbit.
B. Kraemer and his team have succeeded in cloning a dog.
C. Two thousand species will probably die out in over a century.
D. Kraemer will work with Chinese scientists in clone researches.
11、Which can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. China's Success in Pandas Cloning
B. The First Cloned Panda in the World
C. Exploring the Possibility to Clone Pandas
D. China—the Native Place of Pandas Forever
Cyberbullying(网络霸凌) was already a problem before the Covid-19 pandemic hit. After the outbreak of the pandemic, lockdown and work-from-home orders were put into force, meaning people were having to spend even more of their time online.
Previously, more time online had been linked to an increased chance of a person participating in cyberbullying. Studies have shown that stress and anxiety have increased during the pandemic, both of which can lead to increases in the number of interactions that involve cyberbullying. Yet this phenomenon has actually decreased during the pandemic. The reason behind this could tell us how to better deal with this problem once we finally emerge from the pandemic.
One reason for the decline is that in-person interactions can fuel both online and in-person bullying. Bullying tends to start in free time, which doesn't exist in the same way in online schooling. This suggests that if we focus prevention efforts on free time, it is likely that we will be able to stop both traditional forms of bullying, as well as that of cyberbullying.
Bullying rates aren't fixed. When children feel nurtured(被关爱) and socially and emotionally safe, they bully less. During the pandemic, young people have been spending more time at home with their parents or carers. For some, this has probably provided feelings of safety—a positive effect well known to occur in times of disaster or crisis.
Positive relationships can also help reduce bullying. While it is undoubtedly true that some families have experienced interpersonal conflicts during the crisis, most households have been reporting positive increases in their feelings of unity and bonding among their family members. Studies have shown that children reported more positive feelings when asked about having to spend more time with their families. Keeping these positive relationships strong may also help prevent bullying in the future.
12、What led to more online time according to the passage?
A. Addiction to the Internet. B. Measures against the pandemic.
C. Development of technology. D. More participation in cyberbullying.
13、The underlined word "emerge from" in the second paragraph probably means "____".
A. disappear from B. suffer from
C. break through D. live through
14、What explains the decreased cyberbullying?
A. A close watch on young people. B. A sense of safety found in study.
C. A good relationship with family. D. A busy online schooling schedule.
15、What is the purpose of this passage?
A. To show cyberbullying is a constant problem.
B. To explore possible solutions to cyberbullying.
C. To call on people to fight against cyberbullying.
D. To compare traditional bullying with cyberbullying.

六、读后续写
34、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。
Wrinkles of confusion spread across Holly's forehead as she unwrapped the gift from her best friend, Susan. "I...I thought you could use it for something." Susan's explanation did nothing to help us understand why a carpet made of remnant(零头布料) was being presented as a birthday gift.
My heart went out to my daughter. Starting over at a new school had been a difficult adjustment. Until she met Susan, Holly had experienced little success making new friends.
The whispered "thanks" was barely heard as Holly tried not to allow her disappointment to show. She laid the carpet on the kitchen counter, and they headed outside to play. Holly's disappointment didn't become evident until the following evening when she came downstairs to say good night. "Well, I guess we know how much my best friend thinks of me, huh, Mom?" she said in tears. "I'm so sorry, honey" was all I could manage to say.
The next morning, I carried the kitchen rubbish outside. My heart sank as I lifted the lid of the trash can and saw Susan's carpet lying there. Hesitating only for a moment, I took it out and brought it into the house.
"Susan invited me to come over to her house tomorrow," Holly announced a week later. Although her voice carried a so-what attitude, I sensed she was pleased by the invitation. Susan had visited us many times, but she had never invited us and it would be the first time for Holly to go.
The next day I drove Holly to the destination. A tall woman stood in the doorway to greet us. The house was shabby but neatly decorated with used furniture. From the chat with the woman we knew Susan had long been separated from her parents and that she was Susan's foster mother(养母). I came to respect this generous-hearted woman who had opened her home to a young girl. After a nice chat, I left.
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 daylight began to fade, I picked Holly up from Susan's home.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I placed the carpet on the table in front of her.

②考查非谓语动词。句意:《印象西湖》是中国七大名剧之一,以杭州本土文化和西湖独特魅力为特色。因为该句中已经有谓语,故处应当为非谓语,feature与逻辑主语Impression West Lake之间是主动关系,应该填现在分词featuring。故填featuring。
③考查副词。句意:它通过探索基于白蛇和梁祝传说的故事,生动地展现了西湖的历史和文化。修饰动词presents应该用副词vividly,作状语,故填vividly。
④考查名词。句意:它通过探索基于白蛇和梁祝传说的故事,生动地展现了西湖的历史和文化。通过分析上下文可知西湖的故事不止一个,story应该用复数形式 stories。故填stories。
⑤考查形容词。句意:印象西湖不仅是一场迷人的表演,还突出了西湖美丽的自然景观。由于该空后面为landscape景色,景物,形容词natural修饰名词landscape作定语。故填natural。
⑥考查代词。句意:整个表演完全是在湖面上进行的,以山丘为背景。通过联系上下文可以得知,此处指表演在湖面本身上面进行,反身代词itself指代the lake。故填itself。
⑦考查主语从句关系词。句意:更令人惊叹的是人工再造的“西湖雨”,在雨中展现西湖的魅力。分析句子结构可知,这是一个主语从句,从句中“is even more amazing”缺少主语,因此,应该用连接代词what引导这个主语从句。故填What。
⑧考查动词不定式。句意:更令人惊叹的是人工再造的“西湖雨”,在雨中展现西湖的魅力。根据句意“通过重建西湖之雨来再现雨中西湖的美景”,应该用动词不定式to bring作目的状语。故填to bring。
⑨考查不定冠词。句意:印象西湖也是一场音乐盛宴。分析句子结构可知,该句中feast为可数名词。故填a。
⑩考查介词。句意:据报道,背景音乐由日本著名音乐家北田郎创作,主题曲由天籁之音的中国流行歌手张良英演唱。根据句意,有天籁之音的歌手,在该句中with a heavenly voice作定语修饰名词singer。故该空填with。

34、答案：
Paragraph 1:
As daylight began to fade, I picked Holly up from Susan's home. Upon arriving home, Holly sank slowly into the sofa with sorrow and regret written all over her tear-stained face. Half confused, half concerned, I softly asked her what was up. Hesitating for a moment, she murmured, "After visiting her home, I realized she'd given me the most precious present. However, I didn't cherish it, and even threw it away." Meanwhile, large bright drops of tears rolled heavily down her cheeks. I stroked her shoulders and took out the carpet from the kitchen.
Paragraph 2:
I placed the carpet on the table in front of her. In a split second, she curved her lips into a broad smile through tears. She jumped up, screaming in an excited voice, and wrapped her arms around me like a vice. Then she gave the carpet alight brush. Watching it hang in the yard, Holly smiled with satisfaction. She called Susan, apologized for her behaviour and expressed her sincere gratitude. She said the carpet was the most precious birthday gift she had ever received in the whole world.
