    —To Kill a Mockingbird
    “A young girl didn’t give up her seat to an old man on a bus.” Ms. Whitehead was asking her students what they thought about it in her first Philosophy class. Most of the students thought the girl’s behavior was 36 .
    Ms. Whitehead didn’t 37 her opinion, instead, she told another story. “It was about a loving couple who were travelling on a ship. Unluckily, they met with a storm and the ship was going to sink(下沉), only 38 of the couple could have the chance to the lifeboat. To all passengers’ 39 , the husband left his wife behind and got on the lifeboat himself.”

Yes, the great husband is my father.”
    The class dropped into 48 as Ms. Whitehead finished her story. She didn’t think any word was necessary and was sure that all the 49 should have been rethinking about their careless replies. Seeing is not always believing. We 50 not judge(评判) anyone or anything unless we have learnt the full story. Put yourself in others’ shoes and then you can really understand them.

    Every day, scientists fly weather balloons from more than 900 places around the world. These balloons go as far as 200 kilometers. They fly as high as 35 km. This is much higher than airplanes. The balloons then get data to help scientists make weather forecasts(预报). About 1,000 weather balloons go into the sky every day.
    How does a weather balloon work?

    1. A weather balloon carries a radiosonde and a parachute.
    ◆The radiosonde can measure things like temperature, humidity and wind in the air.
    ◆The radiosonde can stand (忍受) temperatures as cold as 95 degrees below zero.
    ◆ The radiosonde is powered by a small battery(电池).
    ◆ The radiosonde sends data back to the ground every one to two seconds.
    2. The balloon flies for about two hours. As it goes up, it gets thinner and thinner. Pop! It bursts(爆裂)!
    3. With the help of the parachute, the radiosonde falls slowly to the ground.
    ( )51. What is a weather balloon made up of?
    ① a balloon     ② a parachute      ③ an airplane       ④ a radiosonde
    A. ①②③ B.①②④ C. ①③④ D. ②③④
    ( )52. According to the table, what can we learn about the radiosonde?
    A. There is a big battery inside the radiosonde.
    B. The parachute helps the radiosonde to burst.
    C. The radiosonde bursts as the balloon goes up.
    D. The radiosonde can work at very low temperatures.
    ( )53. According to the table, how can weather balloons help study weather?
    A. They fly as far as 35 kilometers. B. They only work on sunny days.
    C.They collect data for further study. D. They work together with airplanes.

    Taihu Tunnel(隧道), 10.79 kilometres long and 43.6 metres wide, has been the longest underwater tunnel in China. It stands out as one of the “2022 China’s Top 100 Buildings in the New Era”.
    When building Taihu Tunnel, the project team faced many challenges, such as high safety risks and time limit. To deal with them, they made workable plans. They divided the tunnel construction(建造) into 19 parts. The construction of each part mainly took four steps.
    Step 1 Remove. The team built a cofferdam to remove water from the area, so the workers could go inside and do their work in dry conditions.
    Step 2 Clear. The team dug deep into the lake bed, and cleared the soil and stones out in order to make space for the next step.
    Step 3 Build. The team built the floor, walls and roof of the tunnel in this step. They used high-quality building materials to waterproof the tunnel.
    Step 4 Backfill. The team put the soil and stones back. Then this part of the tunnel was buried deep down the lake bed.
    The construction of the 19 parts was streamlined. The project team used a new method. The work group of each step moved to the next part and repeated their work after they finished the work in the previous part. Different work groups cooperated well with each other. From part to part, the construction started from the opposite ends, and got connected somewhere in the middle. The construction took about four years to complete, shorter than people had expected.
    The drivers’ safety is fully considered in Taihu Tunnel. There are 200,000 LED lights on the ceiling of the tunnel. They show vivid pictures of blue sky, starry night and so on. The pictures can help drivers fight tiredness and travel through the tunnel safely. Besides, there are two systems (系统) in the tunnel. The police can check the traffic situation through a monitoring system. If traffic accidents happen, the police can give instructions and warn drivers in the tunnel over an audio system to prevent further accidents.
    The construction of Taihu Tunnel shows great value in engineering and the tunnel brings much convenience to people living nearby.
    ( )54. Which picture shows how a “cofferdam” works?
    A. B. C. D.
    ( )55. The construction of Taihu Tunnel ______.
    A. was divided into four parts B. took more time than people had expected
    C. started from the middle of the lake D. was completed by using a streamlined method

    ( )56. What can we learn from Paragraph 8?
    A. Pictures in the tunnel can help keep drivers safe.
    B. Drivers can control the LED lights in the tunnel.
    C. The police can warn drivers through a monitoring system.
    D. An audio system can help drivers check the traffic situation.
    ( )57. What is the main purpose of the passage?
    A. To advise people to protect Taihu Tunnel.
    B. To introduce the construction of Taihu Tunnel.
    C. To share the advantages(优势) brought by Taihu Tunnel.
    D. To tell the difficulties of constructing Taihu Tunnel.
    C
    The Energy Vampires (吸血鬼) in Your Home
    ①You may not know it, but there are vampires in your house right now. Luckily, they do not drink the blood of living people. Instead, these vampires quietly drain the electricity(电) right out of your home. They come in the form of common electrical devices (电子设备), such as TVs, washing machines, computers and cell phone chargers. They all turn into energy vampires as soon as you stop using them.
    ②We all know it wastes energy to leave lights or air conditioners on when we leave a room. However, we don’t think about the devices that are always on, even when they appear to be powered down. Many are designed to stay on for convenience(便利). Our TVs are always ready to receive a signal from the remote control, and our computers are ready to wake up at the touch of a button . But this convenience comes at the cost of higher electricity bills(账单). These increased power bills are especially unwelcome when you consider the sharp rise in energy prices over recent years. Therefore, it is certainly worth looking at ways to reduce your electricity bill.
    ③Thankfully, there is a way to fight these vampires so they no longer feed on your wallet. The easiest method is to simply unplug your devices when you’re not using them. However, this may cause a little trouble if you want to use things like washing machines, fridges or TVs.
    ④Another way to fix the problem is by connecting your devices to a power strip. This works well for things like cell phone chargers and computers. When you’re not using them, just cut the whole power strip off.
    ⑤However, the best way to kill energy vampires is to avoid as many of them as you can. Many devices have a level that shows how energy-efficient they are. Throw away your old devices and use newer ones that have a higher level, then watch your electricity bills drop.
    ⑥Stopping energy vampires makes a difference to more than just your bills, though. It reduces everyone’s total electricity use, which is better for the environment. So, if you want to ________, start hunting those energy vampires in your house today!
    ( )58. The underlined word “drain”in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “________”.
    A. use up B. give up C. pick up D. put up
    ( )59. Choose the best answer to fill in the blank in the last sentence. “So, if you want to ________, start hunting those energy vampires in your house today!”
    A. use electricity safely B. have a greener future
    C. check your electricity bills D. live a more comfortable life
    ( )60. The writer would most probably agree that we should ________.
    A. check our electricity bills as often as possible
    B. use our electrical devices as seldom as possible
    C. reduce our total electricity use as much as possible
    D. throw away our old electrical devices as soon as possible
    ( )61. What’s the correct structure of this passage?
    A. ①-②③④⑤-⑥ B. ①②-③④-⑤⑥ C. ①-②-③④⑤-⑥ D. ①-②③④-⑤⑥
    D
    One day, Helen shouts, “Roger, come and look at the egg! It’s cracking(裂开).” Slowly a long beak appears. They are unsure what it is.
    Dad checks on the computer, “Hey, look! It’s a pterodactyl.” “A pterodactyl?” shout the children. “Yes, it’s a type of dinosaur. Pterodactyls can fly,” says Dad.
    Then Helen names it Dacty.
    A month later, he grows up. But there is something wrong with his wings. “My room is too small and Dacty keeps banging his wings on the walls. I feel sorry for him,” says Helen. Finally, they take Dacty to a vet.
    Two weeks later, Dacty’s wings are better. However, he isn’t willing to fly. They phone Aunt Elizabeth. Soon she arrives. “My office is very big. It’s perfect for Dacty during the day. And at night, when the museum is empty, Dacty can fly around happily.” Then she takes them to the museum. On arriving, they take Dacty out of the basket. He stretches his wings, flies high up and lands on a stone statue.
    “Look, he likes here,” shouts Helen. “Can he see in the dark?” asks Roger. “Yes, they see clearly in the dark, just like owls,” says Aunt Elizabeth.
    Six months passes and Dacty is very big now. One night, Dacty sees lights moving inside the museum. Two men—Bert and Eric come in with torches. They are wearing masks and trying to open a case. Inside it is a mummy(木乃伊). Suddenly Eric looks up and sees Dacty. He is very scared. “Look, Bert, there is a huge bird up there.” Bert looks up. Dacty doesn’t move, “Eric, don’t be silly. It’s only a statue,” says Bert. “Come on. I will open the case. You look for the gold medallions.” At the moment, Dacty flies down and catches Eric. The thief is very scared and he can’t say anything. Dacty flies up and lifts him on top of a statue. He’s stuck. At once, Dacty flies down again and catches Bert, too. Both of them are stuck there.
    The next morning, when Aunt Elizabeth comes in, she sees the broken mummy case and the two men. They are shouting loudly.
    Dacty flies down to her. “Here you are, Dacty,” she says and pets his head. “Thank you, you did a great job.” Then she phones the police.
    The mayor shakes Dacty’s wing and puts a big shiny medal over his head. “Congratulations, you did a great job.” Then he turns to Aunt Elizabeth, “It’s great to have a big bird as a guard!”
    “Dacty is a pterodactyl!” Roger says.
    “Dacty is a hero now,” says Aunt Elizabeth.
    “A pterodactyl?” shouts another man. “Wow! They love warm weather and jungles. I work in the Botanical Gardens.We have a wonderful palm house, big and warm, just like a jungle. He will love there. You can come to visit it anytime.”
    So now Dacty is living in the Botanical Gardens. Roger and Helen visit him every day.
    (Adapted from The Surprise)

    A. He plays games with the children.
    B. He falls off the tree when flying.
    C. He bangs on the walls in Helen’s room.

    七、阅读与回答问题(共5小题,每小题2分,计10分)
    请认真阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容回答问题。
    17-Year-Old Is Youngest to Fly Around the World
    On August 24, 17-year-old Mack Rutherford landed (降落) his microlight airplane safely back in Bulgaria, completing a five-month effort to fly around the world. He has now set the record as the youngest person to fly around the world alone.
    Mack’s flight began in Bulgaria, where he took off on March 23. He was 16 at the time, but celebrated his birthday during his trip around the world.
    He flew in a small, two-seater microlight airplane, able to fly at speeds of about 186 mph (300 kph). One of the plane’s seats was replaced with an extra gas tank, which allowed Mack to cover longer distances. The plane also had satellite communications that let Mack stay in touch with people on the ground.
    Mack’s route took him over Europe, Africa, Asia, and North America. He visited 30 countries in all, covered 33,630 miles.
    Though Mack expected his trip to take two to three months, he had to change his ideas. In some places, he had to wait long for getting permission (批准) to fly. Other problems required major changes to his flight plan.
    Mack also faced lots of other challenges, many of them related to extreme weather. In Sudan, Mack had to deal with sandstorms. He had to fly through heavy rain in India, and ended up with water in his gas tanks.
    He said crossing the Pacific Ocean was the most difficult part of the trip. After a 10-hour flight from Japan, he had to land—just as it was getting dark—on an island with no one else on it. He spent the night in the open air.
    In spite of all the difficult times, Mack described the trip as “amazing”.
    Now Mack has set the record for the youngest person to fly around the world alone, beating 18-year-old English pilot, Travis Ludlow, who set the record last year.
    Mack says he hopes his trip will show young people they can make a difference. “You don’t need to be 18 to do something special. Just follow your dreams and they will eventually come true,” he said.
