A
Luis was born in Lima,Peru.He lived there with his parents. But one day his life changed completely.His parents got divorced(离婚）。And his mother moved to the United States.So Luis
went with her.
This move was a big change for Luis. He tried to fit into his new life. He had to go to a new school, learn a new language and make new friends. But Luis felt different from the other children. He felt that he did not belong. He wanted to return to South America. Some years later he had his chance. He was so happy to return to his original culture! But to his surprise, he did not feel at home.
Luis felt troubled. He did not know which country he was from. Luis is not the only young person to have these feelings. More and more young people are moving around the world with their parents. Their parents' work may cause the move. Families may choose to move. They hope for a better life. Such families have new experiences.They learn about other cultures. They have interesting lives. But there can also be a big problem. A lot of people do not understand how moving will affect their children. Parents may not understand their children's struggles. And they often think it will be easy for their children to return to their home country. They may expect their children to be the same as them, to have the same ideas, and to have the same beliefs.
There is a name for these children who grow up in more than one country-“third culture kids”.Third culture kids are not completely part of their parents' culture. They are not completely
part of the other culture they live in. Instead, they are a mix of cultures. This mixed culture is their own culture-a third culture.
21.What happened to Luis when he moved to America
A.He couldn't fit in. B. He liked American culture at once.
C.He had problem with the new language. D.He couldn't make friends.
22.Why did Luis return to Peru

A. Cultural Shock B.Children's Problems
C.Third Culture Kids D.Missing Home
B
All species of birds lay eggs, and most build a nest to hold their eggs. A few birds don't build a nest,incubate(孵化）eggs,or care for young at all. They leave the responsibility for raising their babies to other species. This breeding strategy is called brood parasitism(巢寄生），and it's done by birds called brood parasites.
Fewer than 1% of all birds are brood parasites,Over most of North America,the only brood
parasite is the brown-headed cowbird.It makes sense for the brown-headed cowbird to be a brood parasite when you consider this bind's history,Long ago,its range was fairly restricted to the short grass prairies of the Great Plains,where it lived on seeds and insects if found on disturbed soil. How did the soil get disturbed Big,heavy bison hooves broke up the prairie nod(草皮），When cowbirds followed the bison,they could find food on the ground,some even in and around the bison droppings,which held partly-digested seeds and attracted insects.
This worked great most of the year.But during the breeding season,the cowbirds would have had a problem if they nested like other birds, Bison herds move about constantly, Imagine what would happen if a cowbird started nesting and suddenly the bison left! Without "help" from the bison,how could she possibly feed her babies or herself if she stayed Being a brood parasite,she stayed with the bison, knowing her babies were safe in the nests of birds who found food in other ways.
Female cowbirds will stay quietly in the tops of shrubs or trees,watching for nest-building
activities. Once the cowbird locates the nest, she usually removes one egg. Many nesting birds don't even seem to notice a cowbird egg among their own eggs. Once the cowbird nestling hatches,the foster parents raise the nestling as if it were one of their own.
Cowbirds remain with their foster parents for about 13 days after they leave the nest,following and begging from adults who are often very much smaller than the baby cowbirds! But after about two weeks, the babies go off on their own, and somehow instinctively associate with other cowbirds.
24. What do we learn about the brown-headed cowbird from the second paragraph
A. It has always been a brood parasite.
B. It has always lived a mobile life.
C. It might build their own nests long ago.
D.It used to have strong ability of adjustment.
25. What's the relation between the cowbird and the bison
A.They depend on each other for everything.
B.The cowbird largely depends on the bison.
C.They have to move together.
D.They compete against each other for survival.
26.The cowbird has become a brood parasite because
A. it has to follow the bison all the time
B. it has lost its skill of building nest
C. it can't find proper places to build nests
D.it can't get food from the bison for its young
27.The cowbird removes one egg from the nest probably to
A.make space for its own egg
B.reduce competitors for its young
C.reduce the burden of the nesting birds
D.fool the nesting birds
C
A study published in the journal Frontiers in Psychology took a closer look at music in sports. specifically how listening to music could affect one’s overall performance.
Researchers asked 150 volunteers to throw a ball into a basket. For the first stage of the study, participants (参与者) threw the ball from a fixed point. They threw the ball while listening to music of their choice, while not listening to music, or while listening to music that the researchers selected. For the second state they were able to choose where to stand when throwing the ball and performed the same activity with the various music choices.
The study found that listening to music, whether it was music of the volunteer's choice or a song chosen for them, did not make tho participants more or less likely to get the ball in the basket. It had no effect, What it did do was increase self-esteem and make the study participants more likely to take risks,especially for males who were allowed to choose their own music.
The results suggest that music many pump you up. And it may even help you workout harder and longer than you would without it. But no matter what song you listen to, it's not going to help you get that ball into the basket.
Another study look a detailed look at how music pace(速度）might affect exercise.Researchers found that listening to high-pace music makes people feel like they're working less while also benefiting their bodies more.
Listening to high-pace music while exercising resulted in the highest heart rate compared with not listening to music. This means that the exercise seemed like less effort, but it was more
beneficial in terms of enhancing physical fitness.
The study found that the beneficial effects of high-pace music were greatest for people who were walking or running and were felt the least for those who were doing high-intensity(高强度） exercises such as weightlifting.
28. What were volunteers allowed to do while shooting in the second stage test
A.Choose position and music. B.Shoot from a fixed point.
C.Shoot with fixed music. D. Shoot with no music.
29.Which is more encouraging in throwing a ball test
A.Music given by experts. B.Music males chose. C.Peaceful music. D.Loud music. 30.Which sentence matches the results of high-pace music in this study
A. It has no effect on sports.
B.It improves your athletic skills.
C.It helps easily achieve better workout.
D.High-pace music is beneficial for all forms of exercise.
31.What does the underlined word "enhancing"in paragraph 6 probably mean
A.Reducing. B.Balancing. C.Changing. D.Strengthening.
D
Plants don't bleed red and scream the way antelopes(羚羊）do when lions bite them,but they
often die all the same if they can't defend themselves.A study by researchers at Missouri and the
University of British Columbia proves that plants not only know when they're being eaten,but that they can tell several different insects apart even when they cat at the same time.
Appel and her coauthors-Jack Schultz,a University of Missouri researcher who led the study,
and Joerg Bohlmann, a University of British Columbia researcher who performed genetic(基因的）
studies,along with six others-planted Arabidopsis seeds in a lab and allowed them to grow to a size that caterpillars(毛毛虫）and worms love.Then they let the insects eat the plants.Plants lose water and tissue and,worse,might get infected(感染）with some sort of bacteria, but generally they live to see another day.
The researchers found that the plants produced chemicals that gave them the unpleasant smells to drive the insects away.Moreover, there were different genetic responses to each worm,showing that the plant actually knew what was eating them.
The study, financed by the National Science Foundation and published in the journal Frontiersin Plant Science, wasn't carried out for charity. Arabidopsis is an important plant that can bring in a lot of money for farmers.
This could allow agriculturalists who grow and design cash crops to give them the skills to
drive off farm pests (害虫）。“If we want to grow plants that can keep insects away,” Appel said, we might as well find out how they respond to different insects that feed on them.
32. What is the best title of this text
A. Plants can know which insects are eating them
B. New plants help farmers earn more money
C.Scientists found a new way to grow plants
D. Scientists found plants could protect themselves
33.How do plants protect themselves
A.By changing their genes. B. By producing special chemicals.
C.By loosing water and tissue. D. By telling who is eating them.
34. What shows that plants know who is eating them
A.Plants have different genetic reactions.
B. Plants produce the same chemicals.
C. Plants have skills to drive off farm pests.
D.Plants can tell several different insects apart.
35.The result of the study can be helpful to
A. protect a rare plant from dying out B.deal with pests
C.to design a new kind of insect D.raise money for charity

第二节（满分15分）
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头续写一段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I am raising three children. My last little daughter Aida was born in August in the middle of this pandemic(流行病）。Shortly after having Aida, my mother-in-law Ann showed me how to knit(编织） a scarf. She showed me stitches(针) and gave me her half done project.
I enjoyed making the scarf so I bought tons of yarn (线） since it was winter.I wanted to make scarves for my three children as Christmas gifts.
There was a new family that moved in down the street. The only daughter of the family was
Jane, a shy girl,aged 14, the same age of my oldest son David. It seemed that she came from a poor family, for she always wore old clothes. Worse still, in such cold days, she had no more clothes to wear and trembled with cold.
Because of the pandemic, society was experiencing very hard times. Schools were closed,food supplies and deliveries were stopped and children were stuck at home. In such discouraging times,however,they became good friends,talking and playing at home or around the houses.
It was dreadfully cold this winter. Every time David came back from outside, with red face,he always cried, “Mum, it is freezing outside!" Then, he came over to see whether I finished the scarf.I could tell how impatient he was to wear my scarf sooner! I had to speed the project to satisfy his expectation. But David comforted me saying he could wait a few days. What a kind and considerate boy he was! Then my great art project finally was finished on the morning ahead of Christmas.
I wrapped the scarf around David's neck. David's face lit up with joy. Stroking the scarf softly, David excitedly kissed me in the cheek, saying to me “Thank you, Mum. This is the best gift I have ever received.” Before I could say anything, he dashed out to join Jane with a spring in his step. I felt relieved and content as a mother, seeing David play happily outside, with the scarf helping him to brave the cold wind. Wearing a smile on my face, I continued my housework that morning.
注意：
1.续写词数应为80左右。
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Later that day David came back saying Jane also deserved a scarf.
