At the end of my first week, we were closing the office for the day when a young man ran up to us holding a severely 12 Doberman Pinscher puppy(杜宾幼犬) in his arms and 13 us to save his life. The four-month-old puppy had been hit by a car.
The vet and I ran back into the 14 room. It was hurt badly. The only place the skin was still attached to this poor little animal’s body was around one shoulder. The vet worked tirelessly for what seemed like 15 , sewing him back together again. That was the 16 part. The puppy had broken too many bones, including his spine(脊柱). Even if he 17 the next few days, we were quite sure he would never walk again.
That day forever 18 my life. The vet instructed me, and I became his 19 in all things medical. One of my first jobs was to give that Doberman puppy daily physical 20 . I remember moving his tiny legs to try to keep his 21 from withering(萎缩).

I 29 to be a vet technician for 14 years, and since retirement, I’ve volunteered at a no-kill animal shelter.

B
When I was about 12 years old, my older brother, James, smuggled a BB gun into the house. Our parents had told us many times that we were not allowed to bring home guns or knives, even if they were just toys. Having any form of weaponry in our home was strictly forbidden.
James brought me to his room. He opened his closet door and took out a shoebox that was buried beneath a heap of clothes. The BB gun was inside. I was immediately enamored by the shiny barrel.
"Can I shoot it, Jamesie?" I asked, hopefully.
"No way," James said, taking it from me and putting it back.
One day, when no one was home, I went into James' closet and took it out. For some inexplicable reason - I have no idea what I was thinking - I went to the front window of the second floor in our row house. I cracked the window open. I pointed the gun outside and shot. I quickly shut the window and peeked outside.
In a matter of seconds, old Mr. Schlosberg came out of his grocery store. He looked back at his store window. He looked up the street. He looked down the street. Then he looked straight across to our house.
Thankfully, Jamesie made it home before Mother or Father.
As he stepped through the door, I could hear old Mr. Schlosberg call his name. "James, James," he called. "Come here, son."
After several minutes, James ran back across the street and into the living room. I had retreated into the kitchen. "Alma!" he screamed. "Get out here! You cracked Mr. Schlosberg's window with my BB gun!"
"Oh, please, Jamesie," I begged. "Don't let him tell Mother. She will whip my bottom real good!" Jamesie sighed. He wiped my tears and went back across the street to Mr. Schlosberg’s. I don't know what James said to that man, but there was never a mention of the incident again.
Years later, I found out Jamesie had used the money he got from his newspaper route to pay for Mr. Schlosberg's cracked window. He only got one cent for every paper he delivered. He managed to pay back the debt just before he went off to fight in World WarII.
Since that day, I have never touched a gun: a BB gun, a water gun, a real gun, or any other type.
34. Why was the gun hidden in the closet?
A. The gun was too expensive.
B. The family had only one gun.
C. The law didn’t allow anyone to have a gun
D. The parents didn’t allow a gun to appear at home.
35. What did Alma expect from James after he shot Mr. Schlosberg’s window?
A. To deal with the problem. B. To talk with his parents.
C. To throw away the gun. D. To tell the truth.
36. Which of the following best describes James as a brother?
A. Responsible and strict. B. Brave and determined.
C. Responsible and caring. D. Naughty and determined.
37. The best title of the passage is _________.
A. a warmhearted brother B. a BB gun
C. a cracked window D. an incident
.
C
corals
No longer in the pink
Corals are comeback creatures. As the world froze and melted and sea levels rose and fell over 30,000 years, Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, which is roughly the size of Italy, died and revived five times. But now, thanks to human activity, corals face the most complex condition they have yet had to deal with.
According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate change, a rise in global temperatures of 1.5oC could cause coral reefs to decline 70-90%. The planet is about 1oC hotter than in the 19th century and its seas are becoming warmer, stormier and more acidic. This is already affecting relations between corals and the single-celled algae (海藻), which give them their color. When waters become unusually warm, algae float away, leaving reefs a ghostly white. This “bleaching” is happening five times as often as it did in the 1970s. Meanwhile the changing chemistry of the oceans makes it harder for corals to form their structures.
If corals go, divers and marine biologists are not the only people who will miss them. Reefs take up only a percent of the sea floor, but support a quarter of the planet’s fish diversity. The fish that reefs shelter are especially valuable to their poorest human neighbors, many of whom depend on them as a source of protein. Roughly an eighth of the world’s population lives within 100km of a reef. Corals also protect 150,000km of shoreline in more than 100 countries and territories from the oceans buffeting, as well as generating billions of dollars in tourism revenue.
Coral systems must adapt if they are to survive. They need protection from local sources of harm. Their eco-systems suffer from waste from farms, building sites and blast fishing. Governments need to impose tighter rules on these industrials, such as tougher local building codes, and to put more effort into enforcing rules against overfishing.
Setting up marine protected areas could also help reefs. Locals who fear for their livelihoods could be given work as rangers with the job of looking after the reserves. Visitors to marine parks can be required to pay a special tax, like what has been done in the Caribbean.
Many reefs that have been damaged could benefit from restoration. Coral’s biodiversity offers hope, because the same coral will grow differently under different conditions. Corals of the western Pacific, for example, can withstand higher temperatures than the same species in the eastern Pacific, which proves a way forward to encourage corals to grow in new spots.
38. According to the passage, what may happen to corals when waters become warm?
A. Turning white B. Getting pink C. Being active D. Becoming colorful
39. According to the passage,corals can _______ the changing in the nature.
A. live with B. escape from C. die in D. recovery from
40. According to Paragraph 4, the governments should__________.
A. carry out stricter rules on industries around the coast
B. call on volunteers to look after the marine reserves
C. reduce the number of visitors to the marine parks
D. ban people from fishing in the coral reef areas
41. What’s the main purpose of the passage?
A. To present the importance of coral reef to the world.
B. To introduce the severe effect on coral reef brought by climate change.
C. To propose governments to take action immediately to save coral reef.
D. To attract more attention to coral reef protection.
D
Educators today are more and more often heard to say that computer literacy is absolutely necessary for college students. Many even argue that each incoming freshman should have his or her own microcomputer. What advantages do computers offer the college students?
Any student who has used a word processor will know one compelling reason to use a computer: to write papers. Although not all students feel comfortable composing on a word processor, most find revising and editing much easier on it. One can alter, insert, or delete just by pressing a few keys, thus eliminating the need to rewrite or re-type. Furthermore, since the revision process is less difficult, students are more likely to revise as often as is necessary to end up with the best paper possible. For these reasons, many freshman English courses require the use of a word processor.
Computers are also useful in the context of language courses, where they are used to drill students in basic skills. Software programs strengthen ESL(English as a Second Language ) instruction, as well as instruction in French, German, Spanish, and other languages. By using these programs on a regular basis, students can improve their skills in a language while proceeding at their own pace.
Science students take advantage of computers in many ways. Using computer graphic capabilities, for example, botany( 植物学） students can represent and analyze different plant growth patterns. Medical students can learn to interpret computerized images of internal body structures. Physics students can complete complex calculations far
more quickly than they could without the use of computer.
Similarly, business and accounting students find that computer spreadsheet programs are all but important to many aspects of their work, while students pursuing careers in graphic arts, marketing, and public relations find that knowledge of computer graphic is important. Education majors learn to develop grading systems using computers, while social science students use computers for analyzing and graphically displacing their research results.
It is no wonder, then, that educators support the purchase and use of microcomputers by students. A useful tool, the computer can help students learn. And that is, after all, the reason for going to college.
42. The word"literacy" (Line 1,Paragraph 1) means _________.
A. the ability to read and write B. the ability to use
C. literature D. the knowledge of language
43. According to the author, a word processor can be used to_________.
A. revise papers
B. retype papers
C. reduce the psychological burden of writing papers
D. improve the writing skills of a student
44. According to the author, the reason for students to go to college is _________.
A. to learn something B. to perfect themselves
C. to improve computer skills D. to make the best use of computers
45. The main purpose of this passage is to _________.
A. persuade the educators to increase computer use in their own classroom
B. analyze advantages and disadvantages of computer use among college students
C. identify some of the ways that computers benefit college students
D. describe how computers can be used to teach foreign languages

Where do you think the world’s happiest people live? Somewhere hot with sandy beaches? A country with a tradition of the fine food and culture? Not according to a recent study by the university of Leicester. Who are the happiest people on Earth? 46 Surprised? Well you’ll be more surprised when you hear that the Danes pay some of the highest taxes in the world. So what is the secret of their success?
Let’s start with all that tax they pay. The Danish government provides its people with one of the finest education and health systems in the world. It spends more on children and elderly people per capital(人均) than other country. .
47 Because a shop assistant’s final salary is not that much less than someone who works in a bank, for example, Danes don’t choose their careers based on money or status as people in other countries do. They choose the job they want to do. There’s a philosophy in Denmark known as “Jante-lov”, which translates as “you’re no better than anybody else.” 48 But workers in other countries are not used to looking at life in this way.
Money doesn’t seem as important in Denmark. It has been called a “post consumerist” society. 49 What is more important is the sense of society and it’s no surprise that Danes are very used to socializing. 92% of Danes belong to some kind of social club and these clubs are even paid for by the government.
50 They also show an amazing amount of trust in each other and their government. You can see sighs of this all over the country. You’ll find vegetable stalls with no assistant. You take what you want and leave the money in a basket. perhaps the bike is a good symbol for Denmark. The Danes can afford cars but they choose bikes—simple, economical, non-polluting machines that show no status and help keep people fit.
A. In a list ranking countries by the happiness of their citizens, it put tropical Fiji 50 places below freezing Iceland.
B. The street sweeper can hold his head up high as he proudly does his job.
C. Danish people aren’t as suspicious as many other nations.
D. Most Danes are used to seeing between 50-70% of their salary going to the government!
E. Those 5.5 million people who call Denmark their home.
F. People have nice things in their houses, but they’re not mad about shopping and spending.
G. And there’s another advantage to those high taxes.

第二节：One possible version:
Last Saturday, my classmates and I went to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which was a precious chance/golden opportunity to get close to science.
The moment we arrived at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, we were warmly greeted by a friendly expert standing at the entrance. Excited and happy, we clapped our hands and everyone was eager to explore the amazing scientific world. To have a better understanding of daily basic science, we attended a professional lecture themed Life and Water. A professor introduced the topic in such great detail that we all gave full attention and took a lot of notes.
The highlight of the visit was the hands-on experience in the science lab. Under the guidance of the expert, we got involved in a medical experiment with great care and enthusiasm. Observing the samples through the microscope, we, for the first time, got to know how anti-cancer drugs were developed and what awesome achievements our hardworking scientists had made. We also felt proud of the medical progress of our country.
Before we left, we invited the expert to take a group photo with us as a reminder of the fantastic visit, everyone wearing a big smile. Through the meaningful activity, we all agree that science plays an important role in our life and we will study hard to take advantage of it to make our world a better place.

When I was about 12 years old, my older brother, James, smuggled a BB gun into the house. Our parents had told us many times that we were not allowed to bring home guns or knives, even if they were just toys. Having any form of weaponry in our home was strictly forbidden.
James brought me to his room. He opened his closet door and took out a shoebox that was buried beneath a heap of clothes. The BB gun was inside. I was immediately enamored by the shiny barrel.
"Can I shoot it, Jamesie?" I asked, hopefully.
"No way," James said, taking it from me and putting it back.
One day, when no one was home, I went into James' closet and took it out. For some inexplicable reason - I have no idea what I was thinking - I went to the front window of the second floor in our row house. I cracked the window open. I pointed the gun outside and shot. I quickly shut the window and peeked outside.
In a matter of seconds, old Mr. Schlosberg came out of his grocery store. He looked back at his store window. He looked up the street. He looked down the street. Then he looked straight across to our house.
Thankfully, Jamesie made it home before Mother or Father.
As he stepped through the door, I could hear old Mr. Schlosberg call his name. "James, James," he called. "Come here, son."
After several minutes, James ran back across the street and into the living room. I had retreated into the kitchen. "Alma!" he screamed. "Get out here! You cracked Mr. Schlosberg's window with my BB gun!"
"Oh, please, Jamesie," I begged. "Don't let him tell Mother. She will whip my bottom real good!" Jamesie sighed. He wiped my tears and went back across the street to Mr. Schlosberg’s. I don't know what James said to that man, but there was never a mention of the incident again.
Years later, I found out Jamesie had used the money he got from his newspaper route to pay for Mr. Schlosberg's cracked window. He only got one cent for every paper he delivered. He managed to pay back the debt just before he went off to fight in World WarII.
Since that day, I have never touched a gun: a BB gun, a water gun, a real gun, or any other type.
34. Why was the gun hidden in the closet?
A. The gun was too expensive.
B. The family had only one gun.
C. The law didn’t allow anyone to have a gun
D. The parents didn’t allow a gun to appear at home.
35. What did Alma expect from James after he shot Mr. Schlosberg’s window?
A. To deal with the problem. B. To talk with his parents.
C. To throw away the gun. D. To tell the truth.
36. Which of the following best describes James as a brother?
A. Responsible and strict. B. Brave and determined.
C. Responsible and caring. D. Naughty and determined.
37. The best title of the passage is _________.
A. a warmhearted brother B. a BB gun
C. a cracked window D. an incident

corals
No longer in the pink
Corals are comeback creatures. As the world froze and melted and sea levels rose and fell over 30,000 years, Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, which is roughly the size of Italy, died and revived five times. But now, thanks to human activity, corals face the most complex condition they have yet had to deal with.
According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate change, a rise in global temperatures of 1.5oC could cause coral reefs to decline 70-90%. The planet is about 1oC hotter than in the 19th century and its seas are becoming warmer, stormier and more acidic. This is already affecting relations between corals and the single-celled algae (海藻), which give them their color. When waters become unusually warm, algae float away, leaving reefs a ghostly white. This “bleaching” is happening five times as often as it did in the 1970s. Meanwhile the changing chemistry of the oceans makes it harder for corals to form their structures.
If corals go, divers and marine biologists are not the only people who will miss them. Reefs take up only a percent of the sea floor, but support a quarter of the planet’s fish diversity. The fish that reefs shelter are especially valuable to their poorest human neighbors, many of whom depend on them as a source of protein. Roughly an eighth of the world’s population lives within 100km of a reef. Corals also protect 150,000km of shoreline in more than 100 countries and territories from the oceans buffeting, as well as generating billions of dollars in tourism revenue.
Coral systems must adapt if they are to survive. They need protection from local sources of harm. Their eco-systems suffer from waste from farms, building sites and blast fishing. Governments need to impose tighter rules on these industrials, such as tougher local building codes, and to put more effort into enforcing rules against overfishing.
Setting up marine protected areas could also help reefs. Locals who fear for their livelihoods could be given work as rangers with the job of looking after the reserves. Visitors to marine parks can be required to pay a special tax, like what has been done in the Caribbean.
Many reefs that have been damaged could benefit from restoration. Coral’s biodiversity offers hope, because the same coral will grow differently under different conditions. Corals of the western Pacific, for example, can withstand higher temperatures than the same species in the eastern Pacific, which proves a way forward to encourage corals to grow in new spots.
38. According to the passage, what may happen to corals when waters become warm?
A. Turning white B. Getting pink C. Being active D. Becoming colorful
39. According to the passage,corals can _______ the changing in the nature.
A. live with B. escape from C. die in D. recovery from
40. According to Paragraph 4, the governments should__________.
A. carry out stricter rules on industries around the coast
B. call on volunteers to look after the marine reserves
C. reduce the number of visitors to the marine parks
D. ban people from fishing in the coral reef areas
41. What’s the main purpose of the passage?
A. To present the importance of coral reef to the world.
B. To introduce the severe effect on coral reef brought by climate change.
C. To propose governments to take action immediately to save coral reef.
D. To attract more attention to coral reef protection.

Educators today are more and more often heard to say that computer literacy is absolutely necessary for college students. Many even argue that each incoming freshman should have his or her own microcomputer. What advantages do computers offer the college students?
Any student who has used a word processor will know one compelling reason to use a computer: to write papers. Although not all students feel comfortable composing on a word processor, most find revising and editing much easier on it. One can alter, insert, or delete just by pressing a few keys, thus eliminating the need to rewrite or re-type. Furthermore, since the revision process is less difficult, students are more likely to revise as often as is necessary to end up with the best paper possible. For these reasons, many freshman English courses require the use of a word processor.
Computers are also useful in the context of language courses, where they are used to drill students in basic skills. Software programs strengthen ESL(English as a Second Language ) instruction, as well as instruction in French, German, Spanish, and other languages. By using these programs on a regular basis, students can improve their skills in a language while proceeding at their own pace.
Science students take advantage of computers in many ways. Using computer graphic capabilities, for example, botany( 植物学） students can represent and analyze different plant growth patterns. Medical students can learn to interpret computerized images of internal body structures. Physics students can complete complex calculations far
more quickly than they could without the use of computer.
Similarly, business and accounting students find that computer spreadsheet programs are all but important to many aspects of their work, while students pursuing careers in graphic arts, marketing, and public relations find that knowledge of computer graphic is important. Education majors learn to develop grading systems using computers, while social science students use computers for analyzing and graphically displacing their research results.
It is no wonder, then, that educators support the purchase and use of microcomputers by students. A useful tool, the computer can help students learn. And that is, after all, the reason for going to college.
42. The word"literacy" (Line 1,Paragraph 1) means _________.
A. the ability to read and write B. the ability to use
C. literature D. the knowledge of language
43. According to the author, a word processor can be used to_________.
A. revise papers
B. retype papers
C. reduce the psychological burden of writing papers
D. improve the writing skills of a student
44. According to the author, the reason for students to go to college is _________.
A. to learn something B. to perfect themselves
C. to improve computer skills D. to make the best use of computers
45. The main purpose of this passage is to _________.
A. persuade the educators to increase computer use in their own classroom
B. analyze advantages and disadvantages of computer use among college students
C. identify some of the ways that computers benefit college students
D. describe how computers can be used to teach foreign languages

Where do you think the world’s happiest people live? Somewhere hot with sandy beaches? A country with a tradition of the fine food and culture? Not according to a recent study by the university of Leicester. Who are the happiest people on Earth? 46 Surprised? Well you’ll be more surprised when you hear that the Danes pay some of the highest taxes in the world. So what is the secret of their success?
Let’s start with all that tax they pay. The Danish government provides its people with one of the finest education and health systems in the world. It spends more on children and elderly people per capital(人均) than other country. .
47 Because a shop assistant’s final salary is not that much less than someone who works in a bank, for example, Danes don’t choose their careers based on money or status as people in other countries do. They choose the job they want to do. There’s a philosophy in Denmark known as “Jante-lov”, which translates as “you’re no better than anybody else.” 48 But workers in other countries are not used to looking at life in this way.
Money doesn’t seem as important in Denmark. It has been called a “post consumerist” society. 49 What is more important is the sense of society and it’s no surprise that Danes are very used to socializing. 92% of Danes belong to some kind of social club and these clubs are even paid for by the government.
50 They also show an amazing amount of trust in each other and their government. You can see sighs of this all over the country. You’ll find vegetable stalls with no assistant. You take what you want and leave the money in a basket. perhaps the bike is a good symbol for Denmark. The Danes can afford cars but they choose bikes—simple, economical, non-polluting machines that show no status and help keep people fit.
A. In a list ranking countries by the happiness of their citizens, it put tropical Fiji 50 places below freezing Iceland.
B. The street sweeper can hold his head up high as he proudly does his job.
C. Danish people aren’t as suspicious as many other nations.
D. Most Danes are used to seeing between 50-70% of their salary going to the government!
E. Those 5.5 million people who call Denmark their home.
F. People have nice things in their houses, but they’re not mad about shopping and spending.
G. And there’s another advantage to those high taxes.

Dear Jim,
Thank you for asking. Now students in China are having classes through the Internet because of COVID-19, so am I.
Every day except weekends, class begins at 8:00 in the morning and ends at 5:00 in the afternoon with two hours' break at noon. Subjects include Chinese, Math and English as well as three other courses based on our own choices. We have classes on the Apps, such as Dingding and Xiaoyu, and hand in homework over the Internet.
Only in this way can we protect ourselves from being infected. Besides, I'm learning to be more independent.
Best wishes to you.

第二节：One possible version:
Last Saturday, my classmates and I went to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which was a precious chance/golden opportunity to get close to science.
The moment we arrived at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, we were warmly greeted by a friendly expert standing at the entrance. Excited and happy, we clapped our hands and everyone was eager to explore the amazing scientific world. To have a better understanding of daily basic science, we attended a professional lecture themed Life and Water. A professor introduced the topic in such great detail that we all gave full attention and took a lot of notes.
The highlight of the visit was the hands-on experience in the science lab. Under the guidance of the expert, we got involved in a medical experiment with great care and enthusiasm. Observing the samples through the microscope, we, for the first time, got to know how anti-cancer drugs were developed and what awesome achievements our hardworking scientists had made. We also felt proud of the medical progress of our country.
Before we left, we invited the expert to take a group photo with us as a reminder of the fantastic visit, everyone wearing a big smile. Through the meaningful activity, we all agree that science plays an important role in our life and we will study hard to take advantage of it to make our world a better place.
