（2021·江苏无锡）Danny stood with his mother at the kitchen window of their tiny house. Mom put her arm around Danny. “Just look at that view,” she said. “Can you believe we live here? I think it’s the most beautiful place on earth.” Mom was right; it looked like a postcard out there, with the palm threes swaying in the breeze, the bushes covered with pink and white flowers, and the ocean a sparkling silver strip in the distance.
    Danny couldn’t stand looking at it. All he wanted was to be back in New York City, looking out his old apartment window at the jumble of dirty buildings, the smoke thick in the air, and his friends.
    Mom thought that coming here to Hawaii would give Danny a fresh start—just she and Danny. She wanted to get him away from danger and trouble.
    After a while, Mom kissed Danny good—bye after straightening her white nurse's cap and went off to work. Slowly Danny stood up, making a plan in his mind for his journey back to New York City. But then he heard a noise in his backyard.
    Danny opened the back door. Mom’s new pot of flowers lay shattered on the ground. “Was someone in trouble? Or were robbers planning to break in?” thought Danny. He picked up a broom, ready to strike. He didn’t see anyone, but then he caught sight of a small dark head poking out from behind one of the thick bushes. Danny put down the broom and walked over. It was a little kid, maybe three years old. “What was he doing here all by himself? Was he hurt?” thought Danny.
    “Ahhhhhhhhhh!” the kid screamed. “Hey!” Danny said. The kid turned around. He was laughing like a monkey standing on a mountain of bananas. And he was clutching a little animal of some kind. “Puppy!” the kid said. Danny studied the animal. It was very small and black except for one white ear.He didn't want to break the kid’s heart, but he was petty sure it wasn’t a little dog. It looked more like a rat.
    “My puppy!” the kid said, hugging it so tight. Danny was sure it would pop like a balloon. Danny looked around. The kid was too young to be wandering around on his own. “Who are you?” Danny said, bending down to look the kid in the eye. “Aki!” he said. “Who are you?” “I'm Danny.” “Danny, see my puppy?” Aki held out his poor pet like he wanted Danny to give it a big kiss.
    And then the kid’s eyes got huge.He pointed to something over Danny’s shoulder. “Monster!” he said. Danny spun around and there, moving toward them, was the ugliest animal Danny had ever seen in his life. It was black, the size of a huge dog, with wiry bristles, a pig’s snout, and two huge spiked tusks sprouting right from its face like swords. It did look like a monster. The animal grunted and snorted as it stared at Aki with beady black eyes.
    Prepare to die! It seemed to be saying. And it seemed the monster was ready to charge at them.

In 1993, she won the Pulitzer Prize for her collection of poems. Her work received a National Book Award for Poetry in 2014.

（2021·江苏南京）The Chinese youth are quick to accept products (产品) based on traditional and popular culture. This time, some young students got a chance to design such products by themselves.
In a college design competition named “The Heart of Beijing — Young Interesting You”, players were asked to make their own designs to spread Beijing’s culture, such as the Temple of Heaven, Bell Tower and Drum Tower. Thousands of students handed in their designs.
Li Weiyu won the competition. She was a student who graduated from Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology. “I designed several sets of jewellery. In my work, I mixed the elements (元素) of traditional culture with people’s preferences (偏好) in modern life, which I thought most players were doing. I didn’t simply put the elements together, but chose the parts that were symbols of culture, like the wings of a kite shaped like a Chinese swallow. I thought they were really pretty and special,” she said.
Lu Xiaoyin, leader of Perfect World Games, said the meaning behind hosting the competition was getting young people to realize that they had a duty to protect Chinese traditional culture.
“Chinese traditional culture is rich and has a lasting influence. But many young people don’t think they have a relationship with it. So it is very important to create products that will attract younger people, making them understand it easily. This will create interest for them and encourage them to carry the culture forward,” said Lu.
The crash between traditional and popular culture is opening up thousands of years of Chinese history in creative and unusual ways. And the work includes the creative ideas of these young people, who are giving fresh meaning to the saying “Everything old is new again”.

（2021·江苏南京）The coronavirus pandemic （新冠病毒流行） made a great difference in people’s life in 2020. There is an unusual way to change the bad moods caused by it. It could be seen in letters to Father Christmas arriving at a post office in Southwest France. The post office answered mails sent to the traditional Father Christmas from around the world.
Jim, a little boy from Taiwan, put a face mask inside the letter he sent to Father Christmas and wrote “I ❤ U”. Alina, 5, in her letter, asked Father Christmas to use the front door because the back door was only used by Grandma and Grandpa to reduce their risk of catching the new coronavirus. And 10-year-old Lola wrote that she was wishing that her aunt never has cancer again and that there will be no virus any more. “My mother is a care-giver, so she has to take care of many patients or disabilities, and sometimes I am worried about her,” Lola explained. She ended with “take care of yourself, Father Christmas”. Thousands of letters arrived. They showed what children were thinking about this Christmas season after a year of illness and hard lives. Young Zoe asked only for a music player and a visit to a theme park, because “this year has been very different from others because of COVID-19”.
The earliest letters were opened on November 12. Then, it quickly became clear that the pandemic was worrying children. Thirty percent of the letters discussed the pandemic. “The kids have been very influenced by COVID, more than we think. They are very worried. What they want most of all is really to be able to have a normal life, the end of COVID, a vaccine （疫苗）, not only the presents,” she said. “We are like masters of therapy,” she added.

“Without music, life would be a mistake,” famous German philosopher (哲学家) Fridrich Nietzsche said over a century ago. Music is a big part of our lives. But in recent years, some US schools have cut music classes to control budgets (预算).
For example, Chicago public schools hurt arts education when it fired(解雇) over 1,000 teachers. Among them, 10 percent of the teachers taught art or music, according to The Washington Times. In fact, this is not just a problem in the US. In other countries, such as China and the UK, music classes are not thought to be as important as ones like science, math and history. That’s partly because music is not seen as a very important life skill, and it isn’t tested. Many students are busy with schoolwork, so parents and students choose to focus on subjects that are tested more often.
However, learning music is beneficial in many ways.
When playing music, you need different abilities to work together. It is not as simple as it looks, according to Kenneth Guilmartin of Music Together, an early childhood music development program. For example, when playing the piano, people see music notes and decode (解码) them in their brains. They also use their fingers to make sounds. You need to deal with all these things at the same time.
Music has a special connection with science as well. You can see that many scientists are good at playing music: Einstein played the violin, and German physicist Max Planck was talented in playing the piano.
49．Some schools in the US cut music classes, because ________.
A．they were too difficult to learn B．the schools wanted to control budgets
C．there weren’t enough music teachers in the US D．students in the US weren’t interested in music
50．In Paragraph 3, what does the underlined word “beneficial” mean?
A．Boring B．Helpful C．Funny D．Useless
51．What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A．Different abilities are needed to work together while we are playing music.
B．Playing the piano needs people to use fingers to make sounds.
C．Decoding music notes is needed while we are playing music.
D．Playing the piano needs people to see music notes.
52．How many scientists who are good at playing music are mentioned in this passage?
A．One. B．Two. C．Three. D．Four.
53．The writer’s main pourpose is to tell us ________.
A．Music is as simple as it looks. B．Music classes should be cut in some schools.
C．Music is a big part of our lives. D．Music isn’t a very important life skill for us.

（2021·江苏·扬州市）Crows have long been connected with horror and murder. But maybe their most disturbed quality is really just how smart they are. Kaeli Swift, a lecturer at the University of Washington, gives three examples of crow smarts.

1. Crows can memorize human facesWildlife biologists found this out by doing a simple experiment using rubber masks. Researchers in the dangerous mask caught some American crows and then freed them. When the birds saw the dangerous face again, Swift says, “they would alarm-call, they would dive-bomb that person.” Even some other crows attacked the wearer of the dangerous mask.
Swift says this suggests the crows “were actually learning from their buddies that this special person is dangerous”.
So next time you come across a crow, maybe treat it with a little more respect. After all, the crow won’t forget.

2. Crows have “funerals” for their deadHumans aren’t the only animals to note their dead. American crows mark the passing of their dead in two ways: with alarm calls or a series of loud angry shouts, and with mobbing. Mobbing is when large numbers of crows gather around the dead crow and also begin to shout angrily, Swift says.
Swift and his partner also found out that the “funerals” have more to do with making sure of the cause of death and with spreading the word about possible dangers.

3. Crows create and use toolAs Swift puts it, New Caledonian crows are almost “flying primates” (灵长类) because they create hooked tools — small branches shaped into hooks to fish out insects in wood.
She also thinks these crows might be “the only other animals besides early humans that often make hooks in the wild”.

59．Why do American crows have “funerals” for their dead?A．To respect their dead like humans.
B．To make alarm calls or loud angry shouts.

（2021·江苏·扬州市）Do you like running enough to make it a habit? Tierney Wolfgram does; she has made running a lifelong career and isn’t stopping.
In February, the 16-year-old from Woodbury High School, Minnesota, US, competed at the 2020 US Olympic Trials.
She finished the marathon with a time of 2:42:47 as the youngest competitor in the race and ranked 76th out of 390 runners.
However, the cross-country season was put off to winter because of COVID-19. So she caught the chance to train for another race – the Parkway Marathon in California.
In November, Wolfgram, who turned 17, broke the Women’s American Junior marathon record with her time of 2:31:49. The old record was 2:34:32, which had stood since 1984.
“ I’m totally stunned,”  said Wolfgram’s assistant coach. “ I knew she was going to break it, but she really showed out!”
This was only her third marathon. In 2018, when Wolfgram was 15 years old, she ran her first marathon just because she wanted to see if she was able to do it. “ I believed that I would get faster as the distances got longer ... I’m still glad that I did it.”
When preparing for that first marathon, she ran up to 120 miles per week. Although her parents didn’t have any background in running, they helped Wolfgram train. At first, her dad would take her out in the morning and run about 13 miles. The distance would gradually increase each day. On top of her runs in the morning, she would do cross-country practice after school.
Wolfgram and her team now prepare for the indoor track and cross-country race this winter. As for the marathon, Wolfgram will consider attending the Olympics Games in 2024 after it’s scheduled.

（2021·江苏·扬州市）Here’s a simple question—answer it honestly, because your reply might give you more pleasure in daily life, put off some mental diseases, and even help you live longer: How many hours did you spend reading books last week?
In 2016, researchers at the Yale School of Public Health found out that People who read books—fiction or nonfiction, poetry or prose—for as little as 30 minutes a day over several years were living an average of two years longer than people who didn’t read anything at all.
If you’re reading this, you may already be familiar with recent findings that suggest children as young as six months who read books with their parents several times a week show stronger reading skills four years later and have better jobs than non-readers.

（2021·江苏·常州市）Is there intelligent (有智力的) life on other planets? For years, scientists said “no” or “we don’t know”. But today this is changing. Seth Shostak and Alexandra Barnett are astronomers (天文学家). They believe intelligent life exists (存在) somewhere in the universe. They also think we will soon contact these beings (人；生物).
Why do Shostak and Barnett think intelligent life exists on other planets? The first reason is time. Scientists believe the universe is about 12 billion years old. “This is long enough for other planets to have intelligent life,” say Shostak and Barnett. The second reason is size — the universe is huge. “Tools like the Hubble Telescope (哈勃望远镜) have shown that there are at least 100 billion galaxies,” says Shostak. “And our galaxy, the Milky Way, has at least 100 billion stars. Some planets going around these stars might be similar to Earth.”
In the past, it was hard to look for signs of intelligent life in the universe. But now, powerful telescopes (高倍望远镜) allow scientists to discover smaller planets. These planets might have intelligent life.
Have beings from space already visited Earth? “Probably not,” says Shostak. However, intelligent beings may contact us in other way, such as radio signals (信号). In fact, they may be trying to communicate with us now, but we don’t have the right tools to receive their messages. However, this is changing. By 2025, we could make contact with other life forms in our universe and we might help each other.
77．Why was it hard to look for signs of intelligent life in the universe in the past?
A．There were not any smaller planets. B．The Milky Way didn’t exist at that time.
C．The astronomers were not interested in them. D．There were not any powerful telescopes.
78．What is the best title for Paragraph 2?
A．The Age and Size of Earth B．Why Intelligent Life Might Exist
C．Our Galaxy: The Milky Way D．Earth: The Only Planet with Intelligent Life
79．What does the underlined phrase life forms in the last paragraph mean?
A．messages B．tools C．intelligent beings D．radio signals

A while later, they saw mice running out, one after another, but they saw two mice didn’t run away immediately. It seemed that one was trying to bite the tail of the other.
Everyone was puzzled, so they came nearer to take a look. They realized that one of the two mice was blind, and the other was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite his tail in order to pull the blind one with him to run away.
During the meal time, they started to talk about the two mice. One serious American said, “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of king and guard.”
A smart Frenchman said, “I think the relationship between them was that of husband and wife.”
A Japanese said, “I think the relationship between them was that of mother and son.”

Here Gardner meets a soul, 22, who he tries to make believe the beauty of living.
    “The film is about a soul who doesn’t want to live meets a soul who doesn’t want to die,”said the director Peter Doctor. The film has a 98 percent good review from those who have seen it.

Many people think stress is bad for health. It raises (增加) the risk of everything from the common cold to serious diseases. Usually, we turn stress into the enemy. However, a study has given us a whole new look at it.
In the study, if people with lots of stress don’t believe stress can harm them, they will have the lowest risk of dying, including people with a little stress.
Can changing how you think about stress make you healthier? Science says yes. When you change your mind about stress, you can change your body’s response (反应) to stress. People who consider the stress response as helpful for their life are less stressed, less worried and more confident. How you think and act can change your experience of stress. When you choose to think your stress response is helpful, you create the biology of courage. When you are stressed and choose to communicate with others, you can create resilience (韧性).
You can get away from the bad influences of stress on your health. The most amazing thing is that stress makes you social. Your stress response wants to make sure you notice others in trouble so that you can support each other. When life is hard, your stress response wants you to stay with people who care about you.
Also, stress is not useless. It helps us reach our hearts. Our kindness finds joy and meaning in contacting others. Your heart beats so fast to give you strength and energy. You should think of stress in a new way. If so, you’re not just getting better at stress. You can trust yourself to deal with challenges and believe you don’t have to face them on your own.
How do you make a choice between a stressful life and without stress? Stress lies in many meaningful things. So the best answer is to go after what creates meaning in your life.
Then trust yourself to deal with the stress that follows and make friends with it.

Alice ran downstairs and into the garden where she saw a lot of little animals and birds...
Advice from a Caterpillar(毛毛虫)
“ One side of the mushroom will make you grow taller, and the other will make you grow shorter.”  A Caterpillar advised. Alice tasted a small piece from the right hand to see the effect. She was surprised at the change and started to eat the mushroom from the left hand. Now she was as tall as the trees in the woods. She slowly ate little from her right hand and then little from her left. Eventually she ate just enough of both that she was once again her normal size.
The mad tea party
Alice went to the tea party without an invitation letter. There were lots of empty places, but none of them was for Alice. Alice was always interested in the topic of eating and drinking.

As Alice saw the Hatter and the Hare trying to put the Dormouse into the teapot, she thought the tea party was stupid.
Croquet(槌球) with the Queen
The croquet balls were live hedgehogs(刺猬)! The mallets(球棒) were live flamingos(火烈鸟)! The soldiers had to double up and make the arches(拱门) using their hands and feet. Alice didn’t find the game easy to play. Her flamingo moved its head up and down all the time. The hedgehogs ran away when she tried to hit them. The soldiers were always moving around the ground.

三、阅读回答问题
（2021·江苏·盱眙县）One day, a baby snail found that he had to carry a big and heavy shell at any time. He was confused, so he went up to his mother and asked, “Why was I born with a shell that grew so hard and heavy?” His mother said, “Because we don’t have bones to hold us up. We can only move slowly, so we need a shell to protect us.”
The baby snail asked again, “The caterpillar(毛毛虫) has no bones, either, and she can’t move quickly. Why can she live without a shell?” The mother snail answered, “That’s because a caterpillar will become a butterfly. She can fly high into the sky. Then sky can protect her.”
The baby snail had one more question, “But the earthworm moves like us. He has no bones and he won’t turn into butterfly. Why doesn’t he carry a hard and heavy shell?” His mother said, “He can dig a hole and hide in the ground, and then the earth can protect him.”
The baby snail then cried, “We are so poor! We have no protection from the sky or from the ground!” His mother smiled at him, “That’s why we have a shell. My dear, imagine that if we don’t have the shells, what will happen to us? Hot sun will dry out our bodies and we’ll have nowhere to sleep. What’s worse, we’ll die in the heavy rain.
