We walked in so quietly that the nurse at the desk didn’t even lift her eyes from the book. Mum pointed to a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down. While I watched mouth open in surprise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop. She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, Mum nodded and said, “Very dirty floor.”
“Yes. I’m glad they’ve finally decided to clean them,” the nurse answered. She looked at Mum strangely and said, “But aren’t you working later ”
Mum just pushed harder, each swipe(拖一下) of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall. I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book.
After a long time, Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, Mum bowed politely to the nurse and said, “Thank you.”

On a Friday night in New York, a poor young man called Jay stood near the subway station, playing the violin. The music was so great that many people slowed down and put some money into his hat.
The next day, Jay came again. He took out a large piece of paper and laid it on the ground. Then he began playing. It seemed more pleasant to listen to. Before long, many people came, looking at the paper. It said, “Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat. Please come to claim (认领) it soon.”
Seeing this, people wondered what it could be. After about half an hour, a middle-aged man rushed through the crowd to the young man and said, “I’m the George. I knew you’d surely come here!”

Jay was a student at an art school in Paris. He had booked the flight and would fly that morning. However, when he happened to find the ticket holder had won the lottery, he cancelled (取消) the flight and came back to the subway station.
Later someone asked Jay,” Why didn’t you take the lottery ticket for yourself ” He said, “Although I don’t have much money, I live happily; but if I lose honesty, I won’t be happy forever.”

Hundreds of millions have rolled up their sleeves for the COVID-19 vaccine, but why haven’t they rolled up their pants instead What’s the science behind why we get most vaccines in our arm
Most vaccines are given in the muscle—this is known as an intramuscular injection (肌肉注射). Some vaccines, are given orally. Others are given just beneath the skin.
But why is the muscle so important, and does location matter
Muscles make an excellent vaccine administration (药物的施用) site because muscle tissue contains important immune cells. These immune cells recognize the antigen(抗原), a tiny piece of a virus or bacteria introduced by the vaccine that stimulates an immune response. In the case of the COVID-19 vaccine the immune cells in the muscle tissue pick up these antigens and present them to the lymph nodes(淋巴结). Injecting the vaccine into muscle tissue keeps the vaccine localized, allowing immune cells to sound the alarm to other immune cells and get to work. Once a vaccine is recognized by the immune cells in the muscle, these cells carry the antigen to lymph vessels, which transport the antigen-carrying immune cells into the lymph nodes. Lymph nodes, important parts of our immune system, contain more immune cells that recognize the antigens in vaccines and start the immune process of creating antibodies.
Muscle tissue also tends to keep vaccine reactions localized. Injecting a vaccine into the deltoid (三角肌) muscle may result in local inflammation(发炎) or soreness at the injection site. If certain vaccines are injected into fat issue, the chance of painful redness or swelling increases because fat tissue has poor blood supply, leading to poor absorption of some vaccine components.
Yet another deciding factor in vaccine administration location is the size of the muscle. Adults and children aged three and older tend to receive vaccines in their upper arm in the deltoid. Younger children receive their vaccines mid-thigh(大腿) because their arm muscles are smaller and less developed.
Another consideration during vaccine administration is convenience and patient acceptability. Can you imagine taking down your pants at a clinic with strangers around Rolling up your sleeve is much easier and more preferred.
28．How many reasons are mentioned for the vaccines given in the muscle
A．2 B．3 C．4 D．5
29．Why do muscles make a good vaccine administration site
A．Muscles can easily recognize bacteria.
B．Muscle tissue stimulates immune responses.
C．Muscle tissue contains vital immune cells.
D．Muscles can prevent reproduction of viruses.
30．What could be a result of injecting vaccines into fat issues
A．Poor blood supply. B．Better absorption.
C．Rapid fat loss. D．Local pain.
31．Where is the passage most likely taken from
A．an advertisement B．a journal
C．a speech D．a novel
D
At six years old, Jerry Morrison is already shooting for the stars. “I want to live on another planet,” Jerry told his uncle, Joey Jefferson, at StoryCorps in November.
Jefferson, 29, also fell in love with space at an early age. It started with a spaceship toy his mother gave him when he was a kid. Today he’s a mission operations engineer at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab.
Jefferson, who lives in California, and Jerry, who lives in Florida, meet up a few times a year, and their conversations are always about their shared love for space.

“It was a big opportunity for me,” Jerry said. “I felt so proud.”
Jerry said he learns about space from his uncle. “I learned from you a lot, like more than I could imagine,” Jerry said.
“You’re learning so much by yourself, too, that you’re teaching me as well,” Jefferson said. “And that’s really cool. The more you learn, the more you realize the little things in life we take for granted are the very things that make life possible. So when I look up at the stars, I think about that.”

Mum and Her Bank Account
My family had the tradition to sit down by the kitchen table every Saturday night to count out the money Dad had brought home.
These are for the rent, and these for the groceries. “ Mum counted out and divided the big silver pieces.
I’ll need a notebook, “ That would be my sister Christine, my brother Nels or me.
After Mum put one or two coins to the side for the notebook, she said that was all we needed to buy for the week and we all relaxed a little. We didn’t have to go downtown and draw money out of Mum’s bank account, which could always give us such a warm and secure feeling for having enough to afford the life.
When Nels graduated from grammar school , he needed some money for high school We sat by the table and I offered my “ Little Bank” which was used for sudden emergencies such as the time when Christine broke her arm and had to see a doctor. I laid the box carefully in front of Mum. After counting out the money in the little bank and finding there was not enough, we all agreed not to go to the bank but to find some ways.
Nels volunteered to work in Dillon’s grocery after school and Dad said he would give up smoking. Now there was enough money. We felt relieved.
So many things came out of the little bank that year: Christine’s dress for the school play, Nel’s operation ... Whatever happened , we always knew we still had the bank to depend on. We never used her bank account.
That was twenty years ago.
Last year, I sold my first story. When the money came I thought of Mum’s bank account.
注意 1.续写词数应为120左右:
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
So I hurried over to Mum’s home.

Knowing that there was no bank account at all, I felt shocked.

66．Dear Li Ming,
My name is Zhang Hua. I’m one of your classmates. I’m writing you this letter to tell you something about the new environment you’re in.
It seems that you feel uncomfortable now because you’ve just entered a new environment, and I’m willing to help you through the hard time. The reason why you feel uneasy could be that you still need some time. And maybe you’re a little shy to communicate with others. I think that you can talk with people around you, and be brave to ask them questions that you don’t know. Besides, you can always turn to me for help whenever you need it. I’m sure that you will get used to this new place soon.
Looking forward to your reply.
Best regards,
Zhang Hua
67．So I hurried over to her home. On arriving, I gave the money to Mum and asked her to save it in the bank. Mum said she was very proud of me and asked me to go with her, because she didn’t know how. I asked how she had done that before. She said actually there was no bank account at all in all her life and she had never been to a bank before.
Knowing that there was no bank account at all, I felt shocked. I just didn’t know how to respond. Mum said seriously that it was not good for the kids to worry about life and she didn’t want us not to feel secure. My tears just burst and stories of these years jumped into my mind one by one...I got to feel how deep the love Mum had been giving us.
