The Festival I Like Best
If you ask me which festival I like best, my answer is the Dragon Boat Festival.
On the one hand, it is known to us all that the Dragon Boat Festival falls on the fifth day of May when it is just at the beginning of summer. The weather will be very good with many kinds of flowers coming out, which will make me have a nice trip to the natural world. On the other hand, I enjoy this festival because I can take part in the dragon boat races. We must try our best to make it and there will be many people around us, saying “Come on”. That really makes me excited. What’s more, I can eat the delicious zongzi, a special food for the festival.民勤县第四中学2021-2022学年高一上学期12月月考

A few months ago, Jason asked his parents to buy him a computer. All his friends already had one, so his mom and dad agreed. During the first few weeks, Jason spent a lot of time in front of his computer because he had to learn how it worked. He was really interested in learning all about it and he even started writing computer programs himself.
One day Jason found a website where he could play interesting computer games. From then on, Jason seemed to have just one interest in life, his computer. Whenever his parents told him that he was spending too much time with his computer, Jason went into denial. He did not think that he had a problem at all.
Then the unthinkable happened: Jason's computer broke down. But his parents decided not to buy him a new one. Jason said that he needed a computer for school, and he promised that he'd spend less time with it. But his parents refused to give in. Finally, Jason felt so hopeless that he took the only way out and killed himself.
Robert Johnson, a psychologist (心理学家) on the subject, says, “Computer addiction (沉溺) is an illness that can influence anyone of us. Nowadays, increasing numbers of people are spending more and more time working with computers. While this isn't a problem for most users, some people, especially teenagers, often use the computer to get away from the real world. This is especially true of shy people. For them, meeting people online is a way of hiding their true selves. In cyberspace, they can be whoever they want to be and create their own virtual (虚拟的) world. But what happens when they can no longer enter their virtual world ”
24. Why did Jason want to buy a computer according to Paragraph 1
A. To play chess. B. To make friends.
C. To avoid being an outsider. D. To write computer programs.

One evening last fall, while Marcos Ugarte did his homework and his father, Eduardo, a teacher, prepared lesson plans, they heard shouting outside. Eduardo, 47, and Marcos,15, stepped onto the balcony(阳台) of their two-story home. Immediately, Marcos’s eye was caught by a flame from one of their neighbors’ house.
“Dad, the house is one fire!” Marcos cried. Dressed only in shorts, the barefoot teen dashed towards the Mas’ home with his dad. Grandmother Yim Ma, mother Suzanne Ma, and son Nathan Ma were gathered on the front grassland shouting for help. When the Ugartes got there, they saw through the open front door that father Alex Ma was falling down the stairs, coughing, his face black with dirt.
“Is anyone else in the house ” Eduardo asked.
“My son!” Alex managed to say, pointing to the second floor.
Eduardo started up the stairs, but thick, black smoke, swirling ash, and extreme heat forced him to his knees. He inched upstairs and down the hall where Alex said he would find Cody, eight, who had locked himself in a bedroom. “I’d never seen smoke like that,” Says Eduardo. “My glasses immediately turned black from the ash.”
As the fire spread across the hall, Eduardo banged on the bedroom door and tried to turn the handle. But Cody didn’t respond, and Eduardo made his way back downstairs. At the same time, Marcos saw Yim and Suzanne pulling an aluminum(铝) ladder out of the garage. “Cody was standing at the window, screaming for help,” says Marcos.

When Marcos reached the window, he pushed the screen into the room and persuaded Cody out. “It’s OK,” Marcos told him. “I’ve got you.”Holding Cody with one arm, Marcos moved down the ladder.
