In a small village there was a middle-aged postman, who just turned 20 years old and started delivering (投递) all kinds of happy or sad stories to each home day after day for 50 kilometers. 20 years flew by, and so many changes took place, but the road from the post office to the village always hadn’t had any tree and nothing but the flying dust (尘土) could be seen.
“How long shall I go along this lonely road ”
As soon as he thought he had to spend his life riding the bike on the dusty road with no flower or tree, he felt somewhat sorry.
One day when he finished delivering the letters and was ready to return, he happened to pass by a flower shop. “Right, that’s it!” He walked into the shop, bought a handful of wild flower seeds (种子) and from the next day on put these seeds along the roadside. Thus, after one day, two days, one month, two months...he always kept putting the wild flower seeds along the roadside.
Before long, on the lonely road, where he had come and gone for 20 years, grew up a lot of little flowers, in all seasons endlessly.
For the villagers, the flowers were more enjoyable than any mail the postman delivered in all his life.
On the road without dust but full of petals (花瓣), the postman rode his bike, losing himself in the sweet smell and not feeling lonely and anxious any more.

In 1901, Karl Landsteiner, an Austrian scientist, discovered that there are four types of blood. These four blood types are named A, B, AB and O. People have one of these four types. Blood type O is the most common around the world. Blood type A is the second most common, and type AB is the least common. If people with type A blood are given type B blood, or people with type B blood are given type A blood, they will probably die.
In 1927, a Japanese doctor, Furukawa Takeji, did a research and found that people with different blood types also have different personalities（性格）. He said that people with type A blood are usually calm and serious; people with type B blood are curious（好奇的）, cheerful, and outgoing; people with type O blood are generous（慷慨的）and honest; while those with type AB blood are often caring, creative and careful.
More recently, a doctor in the United States wrote a book that connects blood types with what people eat. For example, his book suggests people with type O blood should eat more meat and less bread and people with type A blood should eat more vegetables. His book, Eat Right for Your Type, has been popular with people who want to lose weight. However, Dr. Peter D’Adamo believes that if a person wants to lose weight easily, he had better eat food that matches his blood type. He thinks it will make the person healthier in other ways, too.

A．there are four types of personalities
B．blood is divided into four types

24．Where did Furukawa Takeji come from
A．Japan. B．America. C．Austria.
25．What kind of people are more interested in Eat Right for Your Type
A．People with type B blood. B．People who are too heavy. C．People who are thin.
26．From the passage we can infer（推断）that __________.
A．people with type B blood can’t be given type A blood
B．people with type AB blood are calm and honest
C．people with type O blood should eat more vegetables and less bread

In ancient times, people depended on stars to guide them on a clear night. Today, we have navigational systems (导航系统) to help us find our way. The recent one is the Beidou Navigation Satellite System (BDS).
The Chinese engineers built the BDS independently. With the launch (发射) of the last satellite (卫星) from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center on June 23, 2020, the global (全球的) network of 59 satellites has been completed. On July 31 of the same year, Beidou started providing services to the world. It’s difficult to imagine.
When you unlock one of Hellobike’s bicycles, you are using the BDS. Users can also find shared bikes more easily thanks to Beidou’s positioning service.
However, the BDS doesn’t just work one way. As the country’s largest space-based system and one of four global navigation networks, Beidou has a two-way communication system, including its ability to receive messages sent by people from areas with poor communication signals. In fact, it isn’t designed for users to chat online. Instead, it plays a role when disasters happen and communications are blocked (被阻塞).
The Wenchuan earthquake in 2008 interrupted (中断) all ground-based communication facilities (设施). Though the first generation of Beidou could only send 120 characters in a single message at that time, communication between affected areas and rescue centers was successful. Now, Beidou can send 1,200 Chinese characters in a single message.
As Sun Jiudong, former chief designer of the BDS, said, “The application (应用) of Beidou is only limited by imagination.”
31．What’s BDS
A．A network. B．A navigational system. C．A satellite.
32．When did Beidou start providing services to the world
A．On July 31, 2020. B．On June 23, 2021. C．On July 31, 2021.
33．How many Chinese characters can Beidou send in a single message now
A．59. B．120. C．1,200.
34．In the last paragraph, what can we infer from Sun Jiadong’s words
A．Beidou may be more helpful than we know.
B．Beidou can not be used widely.
C．We can use Beidou only by imagination.
35．Where do you probably read the passage
A．In a guide book. B．In a science magazine. C．In a sports magazine.
“I was a having math class when a piece of music came into my mind. I quickly wrote it down and finished the song in 30 minutes as soon as I got home.”
Zhang Yuxuan, a 15-year-old vlogger (视频博客主) on Bilibili, shared how she wrote the song in her latest video. The song is at the top of the charts on Bilibili with over 10 million views. Zhang now has 1.28 million fans.
Zhang told Xinhua News that the song was inspired by US actress Anne Hathaway’s role in the film The Devil Wears Prada. “I want to send a message about girls’ power—that girls can be strong and independent, and also cute,” she said.
Online supporters were quick to comment (评论). One fan said, “What a huge gap, there is between her and me! Thirty minutes is the time I spend finishing a meal.”
As a ninth-grader at Shenzhen Arts School, Zhang is studying violin. In 2019, she uploaded her first video on Bilibili. She quickly won many fans. In her videos, everything from bottles to pieces of candy can become musical instruments. A video titled “How to make music at school without instruments” has been watched over 1.9 million times. In the video, she makes musical loops (循环伴奏) with a pencil bag and a desk.
“I often come up with funny ideas and then put them into my songs,” Zhang said. “It’s a great way for me to express myself, and in this way I won’t be too sad about negative (消极的) things in life.”
Zhang told Xinhua that she wanted to study at top music school Berklee College of Music in the US, and became a songwriter in the future. “Everything in life can be written into songs. I will keep on singing,” she said.
36．How long did Zhang Yuxuan finish her latest song

Computers, smartphones, and other machines are the perfect servants. They always do what they are “told”. We usually “tell” them to do things by using a mouse or keyboard. But what if we could just talk to them normally and tell them what to do
This type of technology, known as voice control or voice recognition (识别), has been shown in films and TV shows since the 1960s. The TV show Star Trek showed some spaceships which could reply to human voice commands (命令). The film 2001: A Space Odyssey showed a computer that human astronauts could talk to. It was mainly used to play chess and repair the astronauts’ spaceship.
On the other hand, real-world voice recognition is used for more everyday tasks. For example, Apple and Amazon made two pieces of voice recognition software (软件). They can be asked to do many things, such as setting alarms and playing music and so on.
One of the nice things about voice recognition is that it can be used when we’re on the go. When you’re driving a car or walking down the street, it’s not convenient or even dangerous to pick up your smartphone and type away on the keyboard. Voice recognition allows you to focus on whatever you’re doing at the moment while still doing other tasks.
Speech recognition software is also helpful to deaf people. It can be used to “listen” to spoken words and turn them into text that deaf people can read. Some speech recognition software can even hear words spoken in one language and then translate them into another language.
41．According to Paragraph 1, how do we usually control machines in daily life
A．By using body language.
B．By talking to them.
C．By using a mouse or keyboard.
42．When was voice recognition first shown in films and TV shows
A．In the 1980s. B．In the 1970s. C．In the 1960s.
43．How does voice recognition help to keep you safe while driving a car
A．It helps you to focus on what you are doing.
B．It allows you to type on the keyboard more conveniently.
C．It can control your car for a short while.
44．In the last paragraph, what can we infer about the speech recognition software
A．It can hear words spoken in English and then translate them into Chinese.
B．It can turn text into spoken words for the blind.
C．It can help you do anything that you want to do.
45．Where do you probably read the passage
A．In a movie ad.
B．In a science magazine.
C．In a sports magazine.
On February 20, 2021, Jasmine Harrison became the youngest woman to row (划艇)alone across the Atlantic Ocean. It took the 21-year-old swimming teacher just over 70 days to do it.
Ms. Harrison, who’s from England, didn’t have much experience in rowing long distances (A). She got the idea three years ago when she happened to be in Antigua. There she saw the end of the 2017 Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge. “I want to do this, so I’m going to do it.” she said.
Every year, rowers taking part in the Atlantic Compaign set out from the Canary Islands in December and row about 4,800 kilometers across the Atlantic. Some row in teams of two, three or four. Others, like Ms. Harrison, row by themselves.
It wasn’t easy. Every day, Ms. Harrison would row for about 12 hours. She rowed about 20, 000 strokes (划) a day.
Ms. Harrison had a smartphone that allowed her to talk with family and friends every day. She had other company along the way. She saw lots of sea life, including some whales. For several days, she was followed by a small group of dolphins(海豚) “I was in their environment.” she said. “It was just amazing.”
There was danger, too. Twice, her boat was turned over in the night by large waves. She hurt her elbow quite badly. Another time, she nearly ran into a ship.
Somehow, she kept going. Finally, on February 20, after 70 days, 3 hours and 48 minutes, she reached Antigua—the end of the journey. Ms. Harrison’s rowing has made her the youngest woman ever to row alone across the Atlantic. Before, that record was held by Kaitie Spotz from the USA, who crossed the Atlantic as a 22-year-old in 2010.
46．When did Ms. Harrison get the idea of taking part in the Atlantic Campaign
A．In 2010. B．In 2018. C．In 2021.
47．Ms. Harrison set out from ________ in the Atlantic Campaign.
A．London. B．Antigua. C．the Canary Islands.
48．What does the underlined word “company” probably mean in Chinese
A．陪伴 B．宾客 C．公司
49．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A．Ms. Harrison is a 21-year-old animal keeper.
B．Ms. Harrison used a smartphone to talk with family and friends.
C．It was easy and safe for Ms. Harrison to finish her journey.
50．What’s the best title for the passage
