Since birth, I have worn a tracheotomy tube (气切管) around my neck to help me breathe. When I was growing up, it was common for adults to tell me that I should wear colorful scarves (围巾) so that other people wouldn’t see it. They would say, “You can’t even tell it’s there,” as if my disability is something to be ashamed of. As a kid, I never really thought about my disability the way I do now. It was just how I lived my life.
Now I’m 26 years old, and I’m proud to call myself a disabled woman because I consider my disability to be a part of who I am. I travel around the world to share my story as a disabled reporter and train other reporters on how to cover disability problems. I still remember the first time I gave a university lecture to a group of students. I realized that I could help create safe spaces where disabled people can be themselves and feel free to tell their own stories.
Unfortunately, being disabled is still viewed as something that is meant to be overcome. But for so many of us, this is how we live. This is who we are. I am always moved by the people I’ve met in the disability community: educators, historians, writers, lawyers and many more because we share the same dream and the same need for a mentally-safe world.
24. Why did the writer wear a special tube when she was a child?
A. It could help her breathe normally.
B. It was a special fashion at that time.
C. She wanted to look different from others.
D. A photography editor asked her to do it.
25. Why did the adults ask the writer to wear colorful scarves?
A. To keep warm. B. To protect her neck. 
C. To look beautiful. D. To cover her special tube.
26. What does the writer think of being disabled?
A. Shameful B. Pitiful. C. Ordinary. D. Abnormal.
27. Which is the best title for the text?
A. How I Became Disabled
B. How I Became Proud of Being Disabled
C. How to Get Along with a Disabled Person
D. How to Edit Photographs of Disabled People

Smart phones are greatly changing the way we walk down the street. Office workers and young people are walking like the old as they check emails and messages.
Scientists have found mobile phones make us walk more slowly, with modest steps, to avoid falling over. The leader of the study said the walk is just like someone in their eighties. Researchers found people writing a text message walk more than twice as slowly as those without a phone, finding it harder to stay in a straight line.
The scientists examined 252 people walking while reading a text message, writing one, speaking on their phones or without their phones at all. Writing a text is the hardest activity, causing people to look down at their phone 46 percent more, and 45 percent longer, than when reading a message. This led people to walk 118 per cent more slowly than when they were without their phones. People walked almost a third more slowly while reading a text and 19 per cent while talking on the phone.
Smart phones were found to stop people from walking in a straight line, putting them at greater risk of running into other people, cars or street lamps. This increased the need to slow down and take more careful steps.
John Timmis said the idea for this study came from following someone walking down the street in the afternoon, who was walking as if he had had several drinks. I thought it was a bit early for that, then walked up alongside him and saw that he was on his phone. Simply being on the phone changes the way people walk.
28. What does the underlined word “modest” mean in the second paragraph?
A. Young. B. Straight. C. Low. D. Small.
29. Based on the text, who walk the most slowly?
A. Those not carrying phones.
B. Those writing a text message.
C. Those reading a text message.
D. Those speaking on their phones.
30. What made people with phones take more careful steps?
A. The need to walk straight.
B. The desire to use their phones.
C. The chance of possible accidents.
D. The traffic jams during rush hours.
31. What made John Timmis decide to do the research?
A. Seeing office workers walking like the elderly.
B. Seeing people walking in the street hurriedly.
C. Watching young people who were walking normally.
D. watching a person who was walking in the street in a strange way .

Have you ever imagined that your T-shirt can cool you down by up to 5℃ on these hot summer days? Thanks to a recent discovery, the possibility is getting closer. While there are many technologies that manage to keep the body warm, this amazing invention aims to offer real comfort for those who want to feel cool and fresh on extremely hot days.
Its inventors, engineers Ma Yaoguang of Zhejiang University and Tao Guangming of Huazhong University of Science and Technology in China, took a completely new technique. They designed a special textile (纺织物) that can take in body heat and give off its energy into space. This means that, even when it looks like you are wearing a regular shirt, you are actually wearing something that works like a mirror.
Research at Stanford University in 2017 had already managed to cool the wearers by 3℃, but this experiment was limited. So researchers still need to do more experiments to see the new technique to decide how effectively the new material cools while the wearers are standing or walking, and not directly facing the sky，like in their experiments. They also need to examine how well it works when T-shirts are not in close touch with the skin.
Inventors Yaoguang and Guangming note that the new material will increase the costs by just 10 percent.“It means everybody can get a T-shirt and the cost is basically the same as their old one,” Yaoguang said.
So if you are an athlete or simply someone that has to deal with the extremely high temperatures, be patient because your days of feeling hot and bothered may be coming to an end!
32. What is the purpose of the new invention?
A. To keep people warm.
B. To help beat the heat in hot weather.
C. To find out the wearers’ temperature.
D. To protect clothes from becoming wet.
33. How does the special product work?
A. By sending out absorbed heat.
B. By turning sunlight into energy.
C. By keeping heat out completely.
D. By using light colors to reflect sunlight.
34. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A. The invention needs further testing.
B. The studies in 2017 lack evidence (证据).
C. The new textile has a good cooling effect.
D. The new textile applies to various situations.
35. What’s the writer’s attitude towards the invention?
A. Doubtful B. Objective C. Supportive D. Indifferent

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was eight o’clock on a cold spring night. I was so tired. I had depended on a walking stick to go anywhere for seven weeks, recovering from surgery (外科手术) , and I couldn’t find a way to cheer myself up.
The phone rang for the sixth time in less than an hour. We knew who it was. My mother had been suffering from dementia (痴呆) and mental distress. There was little we could do to help her.
As her eldest daughter, I tried my best to help her. Though we visited every few days, she believed that her daughters had not visited in months. She thought that her friend Jimmy never wanted to see her again, even though he called her and visited weekly. She had no idea that she had repeated the things she was about to say a hundred times today and a hundred times the day before. She had no idea that I had undergone surgery, nor could she remember her own granddaughter’s name. She forgot most of her own past.
This time, I got angry with my mother. “Mom!” I shouted. “We care about you. We visited two days ago! Mom, you have to believe me, and if you don’t, I cannot talk to you anymore!”
Silence. Then she said, “I am only calling to say hello. Why are you shouting?”
“I’m shouting because you keep calling me a hundred times every single day! I’m shouting because you are asking me the same question a thousand times every time you call me! I’m shouting because I have repeated the answer ten thousand times! I’m shouting because I don’t know what to say!”
I sat on the sofa, realizing that my daughter was watching me. She heard me blame my mother, heard me lose my patience and say that someone I loved was a burden(负担). I curled up (蜷缩) on the sofa, upset.

One possible version:
Mr. Smith,
I am writing, on behalf of our school, to invite you to give us a lecture on birds as we all know that you are such an expert in the field.
Currently, many birds are faced with great challenges and even endangered due to the changing environment. As bird-lovers, we are at a loss about what to do. Therefore, we hope to know more about all kinds of birds and their present situations through your lecture. If convenient, it is scheduled for next Saturday in the school hall. Hopefully, you will be available then.
We would appreciate it if you could accept our invitation. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours
Li Hua
第二节 读后续写
One possible version:
My five-year-old daughter asked to speak to her grandmother on the phone. I handed it over without a word. She gave a warm greeting to her grandmother on the phone. I heard my mother exclaim through the receiver. My daughter shared something interesting happening in the kindergarten with her. I heard her cheering on the other side of the phone. My mother expressed her love for her. But then she asked my daughter the same questions again. My daughter patiently answered again and then offered to sing for her grandmother.
I watched my daughter care about her weak grandmother with such deftness. She did much better than me. She answered every question asked by my mother with patience and offered to do something that made her grandmother happy, while I just yelled at my mother like a mad woman. Instantly, I felt nothing other than extremely ashamed. Never before had I been urged so much to make an apology to my mother. And I did it that night in spite of having to walk with a walking stick.

W: Come in and have some coffee, Thomas. The kids have just gone out to the mall to hang out with their friends.
M: Speaking of that mall, I bought a pair of trousers at a department store, but they are too long. Do you know a tailor who can shorten them?

W: Sure. I love going to the department store.

W: From April 13th to April 15th, there is a big water fight all across Thailand. People use water guns. They pour buckets of water on everyone. They do this for Songkran—the Thai New Year celebration. Songkran and Chinese New Year have some traditions in common. People return home, clean their houses, and visit temples. However, they also pour water on their elders’ hands to show respect. Today, they pour water on everyone else, too. It washes away all of the bad things from the past year.
If you travel to Thailand in April, you can join in. Just make sure to wear a swimsuit under your clothes. You should also leave your valuable things in your hotel room. Then, get a water gun and find the crowds. During the celebration, someone might put powder on your face. If they do, that’s a blessing. You should leave it there. It will protect you from bad luck. By the end of the day, you’ll be soaked, but you won’t care. It will be too much fun.
