Chinese young gun Yang Qian claimed the first gold of the Tokyo Olympics with a victory in women’s 10m air rifle(气步枪) on July 24 in Tokyo, Japan. Russian markswoman Anastasia Galashina took the silver and Nina Christen of Switzerland bagged the bronze. Yang, who was ranked sixth in the qualification, scored 251.8 points in the final, beating Galashina to set off Team China to a fine start in Tokyo.
Trailing by a mere 0.1 point ahead of the final two shots, Yang saw the gap widen despite a 10.7-point shot, as her rival made an impressive 10.8. However, when it came to the last shot, Galashina surprisingly shot for 8.9 points, and lost the Olympic title to Yang who had a 9.8.
“I am very happy and proud to win this gold,” said the 21-year-old in a calm tone. The result set the bar for future Olympic competitors as Tokyo 2020 is the first games under new competition rules for the event. “I was extremely nervous before the final shot, and all I could do was to calm down,” the young Olympic champion recalled. “I wasn’t as calm as I appeared to be. During the qualification and the final I kept adjusting my mentality gradually, trying to shake the pressure off me, and I think I did well in doing so.”
Yang had to stand up to a long wait for other shooters to finish their shots before reaching the final. The favored Indian duo, world record holder Apurvi Chandela and world No.1 Elavenil Valarivan, bowed out after the 60-shot qualification round. Norwegian Jeanette Hegg Duestad was the dark horse in the qualification, setting an Olympic record of 632.9 points. But the 22-year-old narrowly missed the medals in the final.
21. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 1
A. The course of the shooting event.
B. The arrangement of the shooting event
C. The result of the shooting event.
D. The competition rules of shooting event.
22. What does the underlined word “Trailing” probably mean in paragraph 2
A. Scoring. B. Measuring. C. Multiplying. D. Losing
23. From Yang’s words, we can learn .
A. nervousness is easy to get rid of
B. keeping calm is crucial to success
C. it was difficult to defeat her opponents
D. she narrowly won the gold due to good luck
B
Way back in 1965, Seiichi Miyake spent his own money to try and come up with an invention that would help a friend who was suffering vision loss move through the city easily. He came up with the idea of tactile blocks(导盲砖). You will have seen these at crosswalks all over the world, small raised blocks that war people with low vision or blindness of coming danger and also safety.
Miyake designed the blocks in two ways. The dotted blocks warn the visually disabled that they are approaching danger. This type is most commonly found on the edge of pavement and railway platforms. A block with a barred pattern warns the pedestrians(行人) that they are following a safe path. Pedestrians can recognize these blocks and their patterns with either their vision walking stick, their feet or with the help of a vision assistance animal.
His block designs were first adopted by the city of Okayama on March 18,1967, next to a school for the blind. In the 1970s, the blocks were installed across all Japanese railway stations.
Since their invention, the tactile blocks have had a few changes including a pattern with smaller raised dots or more pill-shaped raised blocks indicating different directional cues around the world. For example, when the dots are raised in lines in the direction of movement, it might mean steps ahead. For those without vision loss, the blocks may simply blend(融合) into the urban environment but they play a critical role in giving more independence to those with a disability in vision.
However, the tactile blocks have their critics too. Some argue that they might do more harm than good to those with mobility difficulties such as the elderly who may trip on the uneven surface. Moving forward into a world that is more accessible to people with disability, cities are turning to designers who have vision disability themselves.
24. What can we learn from the passage
A. Seiichi Miyake, who was suffering vision loss, came up with the invention.
B. The visually disabled benefit a lot from the invention in their daily life.
C. A block with a barred pattern wars the pedestrians of the danger ahead.
D. The tactile blocks were originally intended to blend into the urban environment.
25. Why have some changes in tactile blocks taken place according to paragraph 4
A. To guide the visually disabled more accurately.
B. To prevent pedestrians from tripping over the blocks.
C. To make the tactile blocks better integrate in the surroundings.
D. To help people with visual disability to walk in a line.
26. Why are cities turning to designers who have vision disability
A. They are better designers. B. They are more sympathetic.
C. They know better about their world. D. They demand less from the government.
C
Carmakers. including BMW, Fiat. Chrysler and Peugeot, warmed that the worldwide semiconductor processor(半导体处理器) shortage will continue in 2021 and beyond. The shortage has affected both production and sales of automobiles.
Automobiles have become increasingly dependent on processors. also known as chips. They are needed for computers to help engines with better fuel economy and assist drivers in emergency braking(刹车). Without a good supply of chips, carmakers have centered production on higher-profit models. The higher prices keep their businesses going even though they are selling fewer cars.
Richard Palmer is the chief financial officer of Stellantis. The company sells cars under 14 brands including Fiat, Chrysler and Peugeot, He said the company did not expect chip supply to improve before the last three months of the year. That would mean a production loss of around 1.4 million vehicles for 2021.
The German carmaker warned that there will be more problems during the second half of this year. “The longer the supply bottlenecks last, the more tense the situation is likely to become,” BMW chief financial officer Nicolas Peter said in a statement. “We expect production restrictions(限制) to continue in the second half of the year. Those restrictions will cause a lower number of sales,” he added.
German chipmaker Infineon Technologies confirmed the shortage. The company said the latest wave of COVID-19 cases slows the production of materials in Asia. And the amounts of goods available have now hit all-time lows. Reinhard Ploss is the Chief Executive Officer of Infineon. He told economists that a sharp limit of supplies is hurting the recovery of worldwide car markets. He observed that “it will take time to get back” to a balance between supply and demand. “In our view, this will take until well into 2022,” he added.
27. How do carmakers deal with reduced sales
A. By improving production technology.
B. By selling curs with lower fuel consumption.
C. By offering better emergency braking systems.
D. By producing high-priced cars,
28. Why does the author mention Richard Palmer and Nicolas Peter
A. To stress the seriousness of the present situation.
B. To provide a solution to the reduced sales.
C. To convey their expectation of the car production.
D. To highlight the importance of chips for carmakers.
29. What’s Reinhard Ploss’ attitude towards car production and sales
A. Hopeful. B. Indifferent. C. Worried. D. Doubtful.
30. What is the best title of the passage
A. The Decline of Car Sales. B. Chip Shortage and its Influence.
C. The Restrictions of Production. D. The Balance between Supply and Demand.

Have you ever heard of the pawpaw(番木瓜) If not, do not feel bad. Most Americans do not know of the fruit, although it is native to the US. Once, however, it was one of the most popular fruits in North America. 31
A pawpaw is a tropical-like fruit that grows on trees found all over the eastern US, It’s also the largest edible(可食用的) fruit native to the US. It is similar to atypical mango in size and has a dull green-colored skin. Most people agree that the pawpaw tastes like a combination of a banana and a mango. 32
At one time, it could be found as far west as Nebraska. 33 The fruit has a very short harvest season, from two to three weeks in September and October.
34 It requires a very special environment—low, wet areas that sometimes flood. In addition, the frit is good to eat for only two to three days after harvest. This makes it hard to sell anywhere distant from the pawpaw tree it came from.
Planters are again growing pawpaw trees and harvesting the fruit. 35 At a recent festival in Maryland, farmers showed different products, such as pawpaw jams, pies and beer.
A. The pawpaw has never been sold commercially.
B. Most people are very surprised by its sweet taste.
C. Maybe the pawpaw will show up soon at a market near you.
D. It also grows along the East Coast from New York to Florida.
E. Happily, some people are trying to return it to its former position in American foods.
F. In several states, farmers have organized “pawpaw festivals” to reintroduce people to the food.
G. Farmers are trying to grow kinds of pawpaw that will be easier to ship and sell commercially.

After filling out fifty applications, going through four interviews, and winning one offer, I took what I could get-a teaching job at what I considered a distant wild area; western New Jersey. My characteristic optimism was alive only when I reminded myself that I would be doing what I had wanted to do since I was fourteen—teaching English.
School started, I was teaching English. I worked hard, taking time off only to eat and sleep. And then there was my sixth-grade class—seventeen boys and five girls who were only six years younger than me. I had a problem long before I knew it. I was struggling in my work as a young idealistic(理想主义的) teacher. I wanted to make literature come alive and to promote a love of the written word. The students wanted to throw spitballs and whisper dirty words in the back of the room.
In college I had been taught that a successful educator should ignore bad behavior. So I did, confident that, as the textbook had said. the bud behavior would disappear as I gave my students positive attention. It sounds reasonable, but the text obviously ignored the fact that humans, particularly teenagers, rarely seem reasonable. By the time my boss, who was also my task master known to be the strictest, most demanding. most quick to fire inexperienced teachers, came into the classroom to observe me, the students exhibited very little good behavior to praise.
My boss sat in the back of the room. The boys in the class were making animal noises, hitting each other while the girls filed their nails or read magazines. I just pretended it all wasn’t happening, and went on lecturing and tried to ask some inspiring questions. My boss, sitting in the back of the room, seemed to be growing bigger and bigger. After twenty minutes he left, silently. Visions of unemployment marched before my eyes. I felt mildly proud that I got through the rest of class without crying, but at my next free period I had to face him.

三、One possible version
After class, I walked to his office, took a deep breath, and opened the door. My boss was sitting in his chair with a hardened face, gazing at me long and hard. Anxious and ashamed, I said nothing, wondering if he would fire me right away. He handed me an envelope, which definitely added more anxiety to me at that moment. However, my eyes went wide open when I opened it and read the letter. It was not an unemployment letter but a letter with several suggestions about my teaching, one of which was highlighted in red: An educator should respect students’ feelings. Almost immediately, a warm glow of emotion rose inside me. As I went out of the office, I made up my mind to change my attitude.
Inspired by his advice, I walked towards the classroom, determined to make a change. As the bell rang, I stood on the platform, eyes wandering across the classroom. The students seemed to be expecting another boring and dull English lesson, some dropping their eyes and some whispering in the back rows. I cleared my throat and announced, “Boys and girls, let’s begin with your voice about my literature lesson.” Suddenly, a complete silence fell over. Each lifted his head and cast me a puzzled look. Flashing a smile, I encouraged, “Anything you’d like to say!” At this, the students got stirred up. The class soon amazingly came to life thanks to their brilliant voices, which brought me to what my strictest boss enlightened me: respecting the students instead of ignoring them will make a difference.

M: Hey, Helen. I’m sorry to ask you this, but I need you to lend me some money. (8)
W: What’s the matter Did you lose your wallet

M: Everything is public in my hometown, even our beaches. So how much does it cost
