My family and I met the breeder at a dog show. We drove for four hours to her house where she showed us three puppies, two males and one female. They were all Welsh Corgis and were so cute with their little legs, long bodies and heads that looked too big for their bodies. It took me a long time to figure out which one I wanted, but I finally decided when the female came up to me and licked(舔) my face. I named her Dion.
It took a while for Dion to get used to our home. Every night, she cried in a way that made me burst into tears. She cried almost every second of the day. But after a couple of weeks, she got used to us. That's when we began to train her.
My mother and I took Dion to puppy kindergarten. It was funny to see all the disobedient(不温顺的) dogs. They all barked(吠叫) very loudly, making my ears hurt. The only one who didn't bark was Dion. She was very shy and hid from people. But she was very friendly with the other dogs. The trainer says that she is doing very well for a four-month-old puppy.
If you are thinking about getting a dog, consider all the time and effort you must put in. There are a lot of responsibilities. I walk Dion four to six times a day. I feed her, spend time with her and watch her when she is out of her doghouse. Even if my favourite TV programme is on, or a good part in a movie is coming up, I still have to take care of her. It is a lot of work to keep her clean. Sometimes when I brush her I end up with hair all over me.
However, it is all worth it. I have benefited in many ways from having Dion around. For one thing, she provides constant love. She is always there to lick me, lie on me and comfort me. I always have someone to keep me company. I enjoy playing with her. Dion is always there to talk to. Even though she doesn't talk back, I think she can tell when I am happy, sad, angry, confused or troubled.
Dion is a big responsibility but she is the most comforting friend because she is always there, with me.
24. Which of the following statements is true according to this passage
A. The author chose Dion because it was a female dog.
B. Dion is a dog that can tell me her joys and sorrows.
C. The family didn't start to train Dion until she fit into them.
D. Dion barked almost every day when she was in the puppy kindergarten.
25. Why does the author walk Dion four to six times a day
A. To train her. B. To watch her.
C. To comfort her. D. To accompany her.
26. What does the author mean by saying “Dion is a big responsibility”
A. Dogs are a big burden.
B. Dogs are responsible.
C. Keeping a dog is troublesome.
D. Raising a dog means time and effort.
27. Which words can best describe the author
A. Patient and responsible. B. Curious and creative.
C. Warmhearted and strict. D. Responsible and brave.
C
Most of Earth’s freshwater sits underground. Worldwide, about 70 percent of the groundwater drawn to the surface goes for farming. But surface waters — rivers and streams — come from groundwater, too. Drawing too much groundwater over a short time can be harmful. Natural waterways can begin to empty. And that can hurt freshwater ecosystems. Scientists consider this a tipping point when small actions can begin making unusually big differences.
A new study has found that 15 to 21 percent of tapped water(自来水) areas have reached this sort of tipping point. Most of those tapped rivers and streams are in dry areas. Farmers in these areas use groundwater to water their crops. At present drawing rates, the study predicts that 42 to 79 percent of water areas around the world where groundwater is drawn up for use at the surface will reach tipping points by 2050.
A healthy groundwater aquifer(含水层) protects ecosystems against seasonal ups and downs in the use of water. That provides stability for area plants and animals. But if too much groundwater is drawn up from below, surface waters will begin to flow into the aquifer, which can harm what are living in rivers and streams.
De Graaf and the study team set up a computer model. It linked groundwater drawing and water flows within rivers. The model covered fifty years, from 1960 to 2010. Then the researchers used climate forecasts to help the model predict what might happen in future years. Throughout, they kept groundwater drawing rates sustainable. More than half of drawn water areas are likely to cross this ecological tipping point before 2050, the model finds.
“We need to be thinking about this now, not in 10 years,” De Graaf says. “Our study shows us where to target more sustainable efforts.”
28. What does the underlined phrase “tipping point” in paragraph 1 mean
A. End point. B. Boiling point.
C. Breaking point. D. Freezing point.
29. What is the writer’s purpose of writing the text
A. Warn us that the surface water can pollute the groundwater.
B. Warn us of watering the crop by groundwater.
C. Tell us the relation of groundwater and surface water.
D. Warn us that the overuse of groundwater can destroy the ecosystem.
30. What is the part the groundwater plays in the environment
A. Keeping the stability of natural water.
B. Protecting ecosystems from pollution.
C. Clearing surface waters to be drinkable.
D. Providing stability for the local economy.
31. How did the researchers conduct the study
A. They happened to work out the result.
B. They predicted the result based on the old data.
C. They measured all the groundwater and surface water.
D. They did questionnaire surveys on the water information.
D
A shortage of semiconductors(半导体) has helped firms such as Nvidia, whose chips(芯片) power everything from video gaming to machine learning and data centres. But boom time for sellers means misery for buyers. Carmakers, whose products have become computers on wheels, are among the victims. Analysts say the industry might build around 5 million fewer cars this year, all for want of the chips. Apple and Microsoft have also warned that they will be affected.
The shortage is the result of a sudden rise in demand. Chip making has been enjoying strong growth for decades as computers have stepped into every corner of society. But there was a strong upward trend during the pandemic. Locked-down consumers shopped online, had meetings remotely, and killed time with video-streaming and videogaming.
The crisis has had three consequences, two encouraging and one less so.
The first is an investment boom. Big producers such as Intel, Samsung and TSMC are planning to spend hundreds of billions of dollars on extra capacity(产能) over the next few years. As in many markets, high prices are the best cure for high prices.
The second is that the chip industry’s customers are adapting, too. When demand fell early in the pandemic, carmakers cut their orders with chipmakers. Following Tesla, Volkswagen has announced plans to develop driver-assistance chips in-house.
Unwelcome effect has been a sudden rise of techno-nationalism. America is planning to hand out billions of dollars to attract chipmakers back from East Asia. Europe wants to double its share of global production, to 20%,by 2030. Even Britain has declared the fate of a small chip factory in Wales to be a matter of national security.
Chips have come to occupy what used to be called the “commanding heights” of an economy, in the way that car factories did in the 20th century. But as last century’s governments discovered, subsidies(补贴) led to oversupply. Personally, the chip shortage is mostly a self-solving problem. Governments should resist the temptation to see themselves as saviours(救星).
32. What is the main cause of the sudden shortage of chips according to the passage
A. Economic crisis B. The outbreak of the pandemic.
C. Governments’ control. D. Great demand in online products.
33. What is the discouraging result of the chip shortage according to the passage
A. Hot investment in chips. B. Carmakers’ adaptation to the market.
C. A rise of techno-nationalism. D. Realization of technological globalization.
34. What does the author tend to think in the last paragraph
A. Government subsidies will lead to waste.
B. Markets are the cure for the chip shortage.
C. The government should rescue the market.
D. Car factories in the 20th century were on the rise.
35. Which would be the best title for the passage
A. Chip Shortage—A Self-solving Problem
B. High Prices—The Best Cure for High Prices
C. Challenges—Promises of New Opportunities
D. Techno-nationalism—A War without Smoke

Be present
My advice for newcomers is to be present and live in the moment. Before you know it, high school’s over, and you can’t go back. There are no do-overs. 40 . — Riad
