Every year on my birthday, ever since I turned twelve, a white gardenia (栀子花) would be sent to my house. I had tried to find out the sender’s name, but no card ever came with the flower. The phone calls to the flower shop didn’t help, either. After a while, I gave up and was just pleased with the yearly beautiful white flower wrapped (包裹) in soft pink paper.

However, I never stopped imagining who the giver might be. Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about this sender. My mother encouraged these daydreams. She would ask me if I had been especially kind to someone. Maybe it was one of my classmates. Maybe it was the old man who lived across the street. I had sent letters for him during the winter. But, as a girl, I had more fun imagining from the sender to be some boy I had met.

A month before I was set to graduate (毕业) from high school, my father passed away. I was so sad that I became completely uninterested in my upcoming (即将来临的) graduation dance. Would I have a new dress to wear to it? I didn’t care at all. My mother was caught up in her own sadness. However, she wouldn’t let me miss any of those things. She wanted her children to feel loved. In fact, my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like how I came to view the gardenia: lovely and strong, with perhaps a bit of mystery (神秘感).

Several years after my graduation, I got married at the age of 22. My mother died ten years later. That was when the gardenia stopped coming.

A. 2nd birthday B. 12th birthday C. 21st birthday D. 33rd birthday

A. made an email to the flower shop B. found a card together with the flower

Have you ever wished that the driverless cars we see in movies and TV shows were real? If so, you’ll be happy to learn that driverless cars are on their way.

The first driverless car to hit the screen was Herbie, a cute talking car from the 1968 comedy The Love Bug. Herbie could drive by himself and even talk to his human friends.

KITT was another driverless car that appeared on the 1980s’ TV show knight Rider. KITT used advanced technology (先进技术) to drive itself and help its rider Michael Knight catch criminals (罪犯).

While the driverless cars of today can’t talk to us, they are much like the ones we’ve seen on screen Nearly every major car company is working on their own driverless cars. Tesla, for example, has made a driver-assistance system (驾驶员辅助系统) for its cars called Tesla Autopilot.

Tesla Autopilot can do many of the tasks (任务) that human drivers do. It can make sure that your car is driving in the correct lane (车道), as well as park itself and stop if it sees that an accident might happen. However, it is not fully self-driving. A human still needs to drive it.

Google’s sister company Waymo seems to be leading the way in this area. Its self-driving cars are already being used for taxi services in the US city of Phoenix. It is the only self-driving car service that does not have backup (备用的) human drivers. It uses common cameras and laser radar (激光雷达) to get around without risk of crashing.

30. What do you think the text is mainly about?

A. Reasons for inventing driverless cars.

B. The development of driverless technology.

C. Driverless technology in TV shows and movies.

D. TV shows that feature advanced technology.

31. According to the text, Tesla Autopilot can ________.

A. talk to humans B. run after criminals

C. prevent the car from accidents D. keep the car from parking

32. What do we know about Waymo’s driverless cars?

A. They are used as taxis in Phoenix, US. B. They must have human drivers.

C. They use special cameras to take pictures. D. They often crash into other cars.

33. The first driverless car’s name is _________.

A. Herbie B. KITT C. Tesla D. Knight Rider

C

A Heavy Tire(轮胎) Necklace

It’s common for kind strangers to go out of their way to save missing dogs or cats. However, you would be hard-up to find someone who was willing(愿意) to risk their own life in order to save a crocodile(鳄鱼). In this case, Tili from Palu, Indonesia, was certainly a hero. The 35-year-old bird catcher managed to help a saltwater crocodile to once again be able to enjoy its freedom.

The crocodile caught people’s eye in 2016. It was seen swimming around with a motorbike tire around its neck. People had no idea how the tire had originally(最初) gotten stuck on the animal. However, they decided to find a way to take away its rubbery(橡胶的) “necklace” from around its neck. Otherwise the crocodile would likely end up choking to death once it grew to its full size. Sadly, many people tried and failed.

In early January, Tili moved to the city of Palu. He heard about the famous crocodile from his neighbors. He decided to try his luck. Tili set up a trap, using live chickens as bait(诱饵). After three weeks of waiting, the crocodile finally fell into the trap on the night of February 9.

Government data recorded 279 crocodile attacks in Indonesia. As many as 268 cases had been carried out by saltwater crocodiles. About half of them were deadly(致命的). “I didn’t learn how to do this from anywhere,” Tili said. “I just couldn’t stand seeing an animal suffer.”

34. How old was Tili when he helped the crocodile in the text?

A. 10. B. 16. C. 27. D. 35.

35. What does the underlined word “choking” mean in English?

A. having a rest B. going swimming C. stopping breathing D. falling into the trap

36 Tili set up a trap with ________.

A. Palu’s saltwater B. live chickens C. motorbike tire D. rubbery necklace

37. According to last paragraph, what opinion do you think the author holds?

A. We are under attack from animals.

B. 268 animals need help in Indonesia.

C. Everyone must learn how to feed animals well.

D. We should help animals although they are dangerous.
