But there are also some events that are not as popular. Some are even very strange. Let's see if you have any knowledge about the following events.Tug-of-warThis event started in 1900 and left the Olympics in 1920. The team wins if they pull the rope past a certain point first. Interestingly, more than one team from a country can enter in this event. This makes it possible for one country to win several medals.Rope climbingIt first appeared as an Olympic sport in 1896.The climber who spends the shortest time reaching the top is the winner. The rope used to be 15 meters long. Years later, it was shortened to 8 meters for some reason. After 1932, there was no rope climbing in the Olympics.Race walking   In race walking, walkers have to win the race by walking. To make sure that they do not run, race walkers must have one foot on the ground at all times. Race walking has been an Olympic sport since 1904.Men enter in 20-kilometer and 50-kilometer races; women only race 20 kilometers.1. Which of the following events left the Olympics in 1920?A.

Race walking is still an event at the Olympic Games today. BSeven years ago, Joyce Akinpe moved to Australia to start a new life, finding an exciting job in Sydney. After the outbreak(爆发) of COVID-19, she suddenly lost her job.Seeing that there were many others like herself in trouble from the outbreak, Akinpe and her two roommates, Michele Gomez and Maureen Lee, brainstormed ideas for how to help their local community. They came up with a street pantry(储藏柜).Gomez said the idea was very simple, “Take what you need and leave what you can.”With the help of Gomez's father, they built the Blessing Box—a street pantry, with shelves and hanging baskets and two doors made from old furniture.It sits just at the back of the three girls' home, so they can look after it. They put some information notices into their neighbors' mailboxes, and the Blessing Box was quickly filled with the donations(捐赠) from the community. “It is the community's strong support that keeps the project alive, ” Akinpe said.“We now have hundreds of people visiting our box every day. It might only an hour for the box to be full and next hour it might become empty again. We are now helping others to carry out similar projects in their own communities, too.” Gomez said.Lee said things in the box were mostly convenience foods as well as some necessary life things such as spaghetti and toilet paper. “Few people take everything at once. They think there are other people who need them more.” Lee added.There were many people rushing there for donations. The three girls needed to sanitize(消毒) all the donations and make sure all food packages were not broken. Gomez said that they had no time for rest, but what they did was well worth.4. Paragraph 2 mainly talks about         .A. the way to build the Blessing Box      B. the help from the local communityC. the purpose of building a street pantry  D. the trouble from the outbreak of COVID-195. Put the following sentences in the right order according to the passage.a. The three girls thought up a good idea.b. The three girls received and sanitized the donations.c. The three girls put information notices into their neighbors' mailboxes.d. The three girls built the Blessing Box with the help of Gomez's father.A. c—a—b—d B. c—b—a—d. C. a—b—d—c D. a—d—c—b6. Few people take everything they need at once because          .A. they would like to use their own thingsB. they think other people need these things moreC. there aren't enough donations in the Blessing BoxD. it's not safe to use the things from the Blessing Box7. The best title for the passage can probably be          .A. Challenges through Life  B. Happiness from StrangersC. Friendship during the Hard Times  D. Kindness behind the Blessing BoxCIn China, each year we produce about 150 million tons of city waste according to a report. Where does the waste go? People usually burn or bury(埋) it. On the other hand, we receive waste from some developed countries. We get useful materials from it. What about the useless part? Still burned or buried. But is it a proper way?Waste pollutes the environment, harms people's health and causes animals to die. It also gets in the way of green and sustainable  development. We can't make money at the cost of the environment. We should leave clean water and green mountains to our next generations(一代人).China is getting really serious about waste now.We are taking less waste from developed countries. From January 2018, China started to stop 24 kinds of waste coming into our country. And more laws and rules about dealing with waste have been made. Anyone who breaks the law will be punished.China also tries to put waste into good use. One example is the waste electricity factories. They burn waste to make electricity in a green way. No harmful gases or water will get into the environment.The Chinese government is encouraging people to do waste sorting(分类).Cities like Shanghai, Chongqing and Beijing have their own sorting systems. More will join them soon. As President Xi Jinping said during a visit to Shanghai, waste sorting is a new fashion(时尚).More and more people are forming the habit of separating their waste.8.The writer starts the passage by          .A. telling stories B. comparing numbers   C. raising questions   D. giving suggestions9.The underlined word “sustainable” in Paragraph 2 means“          ” in Chinese.A.可享受的      B.可持续的         C.可借鉴的     D.可复活的10. From the passage, we know that         .A. waste does harm only to the environmentB. those who break the law may not be punishedC. China stops getting waste from developed countriesD. waste sorting starts to become popular in China11.The structure of the passage may be          .(①=Paragraph 1  ②=Paragraph 2  ③=Paragraph 3  ④=Paragraph 4  ⑤=Paragraph 5  ⑥=Paragraph 6)A.    B.    C.    D.DFacial recognition technology(人脸识别技术)is widely used today.For example, police use it to search for bad guys.12.        Now, a similar technology, known as facial detection(探测), is entering a new field: the business of advertising (广告).Such systems are going through tests in a small number of stores. One facial detection system can judge a person's “happiness” or “fear” level.13.         Another system can detect whether someone is wearing eyeglasses. If so, stores can send advertisements for new glasses to him.14.         Cameras in those boards can detect information like people's ages and five levels of feelings—from “very happy” to “very unhappy”.Supporters of the technology say it could improve buyers' experience by showing products they might like or by offering them products at lower prices.15.         Pam Dixon, the head of a privacy(隐私) group, is one of them. She thinks the strange actions may cause something unfair. For example, a business could raise the price of a product according to a person's age and feelings.However, one store testing the technology explained they wouldn't store people's information like names or ages. And the advertising board system maker said it didn't keep any personal information or record any videos.根据短文内容，从下列选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项。A. It is very important to protect people's privacy.B. It's also used to unlock phones or doors.C. That helps businesses see how people feel as they look at products or advertisements in the store.D. Some are against the idea of using such systems.E. Facial detection technology is also placed inside some large advertising boards.二、语言知识运用(共20小题；满分20分)A    阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。(共10小题； 每小题1分，满分10分)Sam was very nervous.
