21．（6分）When my daughter was in primary school，she brought home four small twigs（嫩枝） one day.Her school gave these twigs to the students to plant.None of them looked very hardy（适应力强的），but with a hope for the future，I planted them in our backyard.Over the years，because of an accident with the lawnmower（割草机） and poor soil，three of them died.Only one survived.It grew crooked（弯弯曲曲的） and very slowly.It never got very tall.In the end，it looked more like a fat bus h than a tree.A few years ago，I noticed that it was starting to.die.The lower branches were becoming bare（秃的）.Only the top of the tree was still green.Last summer I did my best to save it by feeding it a lot of fertilizer（肥料），but it didn't work.
Later one morning，I went out and looked at it again.I was wondering whether it would be better to just cut it down.It would make mowing the lawn easier.As I walked over to take a closer look at it，however，I noticed something moving within the leaves.It was a robin（知更鸟） patiently building a nest in the topmost branches.I smiled when I looked at it.I thought maybe this old tree was still useful.It might not be healthy or pretty，but it was still giving a bird a home.
This tree made me know that all of our lives have purpose.It doesn't matter if we are young and strong or old and sickly.Until our last breath，we have things to do，love to give，and joy to share.We can help to make this world a better and more beautiful place.

22．（6分）A zoo has turned to social media live﹣streams（直播） and is offering animals for public adoption（收养） to raise funds in the face of falling income caused by the COVID﹣19 pandemic.

The adopted animals stay at the zoo and adopters are allowed to go to the zoo and experience working as a zookeeper by helping feed the adopted animal .The zoo is home to 3，000 animals，according to its website.
It is popular on social media as it is one of only a few Chinese zoos to do live﹣streaming about the animals' daily life.
"During this special period，we thank everybody's company，but also need your help.Please click the blue heart﹣shaped button to donate.The donations we receive will all be used for animal protection，" an employee told audiences in a recent live﹣streaming.

23．（8分）It's long been a scientific dream：to give people a special vaccine before birth to prevent them from getting terrible illnesses.Gene editing（基因编辑） is one way in which we could do this.But this method has also created some discussion.
In an online video posted on Nov.26，2018，He Jiankui，a researcher at the Southern University of Science and Technology，said that he had helped to make the world's first genetically edited babies.The babies are twin girls who were born in November.Their father had HIV.The twins' genes were edited in order to prevent them from suffering from the HIV virus.
He said he chose to do this because HIV is widespread in China."I feel such a strong duty not only to be the first to do this，but also to set an example，" he told AP.
But his actions caused many questions.Although gene editing may help to prevent disease，many people are wondering if it is safe and ethical to use it on humans.
Some believe that gene editing could be useful to HIV patients.HIV is"a large and growing public health problem"，according to Harvard Medical School genetic professor George Church.Using gene editing for HIV is "a good idea"，Church told AP.
However，others think that gene editing is still in its experimental periods and could result in terrible changes. "It could cause genetic problems later in life，including the development of cancer，" Julian Savulescu from the University of Oxford told BBC News.
Others fear that people might use gene editing technology to make "designer（设计的） babies".It would give parents the ability to choose everything from their baby's eye colour to their IQ.
"You could find wealthy parents buying the latest 'upgrades' for their children，leading to even greater unfairness than we already live with，" Marcy Darnovsky，director of the San Francisco Center for Genetics told BBC News.

（1）What do we know about He Jiankui？ 　 　
A.He was the first person to edit genes.
B.He made the twins suffer from HIV when he edited their genes.
C.He made the world's first genetically edited babies.
D.He was the first person whose genes were edited.
（2）Who agreed that gene editing could be helpful to HIV patients？ 　 　
A.George Church.
B.Julian Savulescu.
C.Marcy Darnovsky.
D.Chinese researchers.
（3）According to the story，we know that gene editing 　 　 .
A.is supported by the writer
B.is good for wealthy people
C.causes some heated argument
D.has been used widely in the UK
（4）What does "designer babies" mean in the passage？ 　 　
A.Parents can change their baby's eye colour.
B.Parents are able to choose their baby's height.
C.Parents can give their baby everything that he or she likes.
D.Parents have a chance to prevent their baby from suffering from the virus.

23．（8分）It's long been a scientific dream：to give people a special vaccine before birth to prevent them from getting terrible illnesses.Gene editing（基因编辑） is one way in which we could do this.But this method has also created some discussion.
In an online video posted on Nov.26，2018，He Jiankui，a researcher at the Southern University of Science and Technology，said that he had helped to make the world's first genetically edited babies.The babies are twin girls who were born in November.Their father had HIV.The twins' genes were edited in order to prevent them from suffering from the HIV virus.
He said he chose to do this because HIV is widespread in China."I feel such a strong duty not only to be the first to do this，but also to set an example，" he told AP.
But his actions caused many questions.Although gene editing may help to prevent disease，many people are wondering if it is safe and ethical to use it on humans.
Some believe that gene editing could be useful to HIV patients.HIV is"a large and growing public health problem"，according to Harvard Medical School genetic professor George Church.Using gene editing for HIV is "a good idea"，Church told AP.
However，others think that gene editing is still in its experimental periods and could result in terrible changes. "It could cause genetic problems later in life，including the development of cancer，" Julian Savulescu from the University of Oxford told BBC News.
Others fear that people might use gene editing technology to make "designer（设计的） babies".It would give parents the ability to choose everything from their baby's eye colour to their IQ.
"You could find wealthy parents buying the latest 'upgrades' for their children，leading to even greater unfairness than we already live with，" Marcy Darnovsky，director of the San Francisco Center for Genetics told BBC News.

A.He was the first person to edit genes.

D.has been used widely in the UK
（4）What does "designer babies" mean in the passage？ 　B　
A.Parents can change their baby's eye colour.
B.Parents are able to choose their baby's height.
C.Parents can give their baby everything that he or she likes.
D.Parents have a chance to prevent their baby from suffering from the virus.
