Children’s museums become an essential part of our play menu. Here are 4 famous muse-ums for families.
KidsQuest Children’s Museum
It features huge windows, beautifully designed exhibits and an adventurous, two-story rope ladders in the opening gallery. Kids of all ages will love building with real tools in the re-cycled room, running the cash register, doing physics experiments on water in the Water Lab and much more. Reservations are required.

Imagine Children’s Museum
Imagine Children’s Museum’s new 33,000-square-foot expansion doubles the museum’s previous play space and its shows. At over 60,000 square feet, its current area is much bigger than other local children’s museums (which average around 10,000-20,000 square feet). Visitors can spend hours in the museum.
Children’s Museum of Tacoma
At 10,000 square feet in size, the Children’s Museum of Tacoma has a huge draw. Since it opened about a decade ago, it has offered pay-as-you-will admission and has no plans to change that anytime soon. This means that you can stop off for an hour, without worrying about whether you’ve gotten your money’s worth.
Seattle Children’s Museum
This kid-favorite spot is located on the lower level of the Seattle Center Armory building. Long-time museum lovers will notice a new exhibit, a post office where kids can weigh packages and slide behind the driver’s seat to make pretend deliveries.

Marathon is one of the most difficult races in track and field, at a little over 42 kilometers. To be a world-class marathoner, you must run that distance in two and a half hours. But for some, completing a marathon race is a lifelong dream.
Jacqueline’s dream of being a world-class runner began when she was a child in Kenya. She soon realized she had the talent and the willpower to compete. She also knew she would have to train full-time, which meant not being able to work to help support her family. But she was confident that she could bring home prize money.
Jacqueline traveled to China to compete in the Zheng-Kai marathon knowing she had a good shot at winning the race, but more importantly, the $10,000 prize that went with it. She was leading the women’s division when a male runner arrived at the water station. The man had trouble drinking water because a birth defect(缺陷)had left him without hands, and he struggled to drink from a plastic bottle. But any assistance from fans or race officials would result in his disqualification. Jacqueline noticed the man and immediately knew that he needed help. She grabbed a water bottle and helped him get the water his body needed to complete the race.
Runner after runner passed Jacqueline. Her hopes of winning were getting lost in numerous runners ahead of her. With only 4 kilometers left in the race, and certain that the male runner would now finish, Jacqueline picked up her pace and finally finished second.
That day, Jacqueline missed out on first place, but she finished something more important: humanity. She returned home with the smaller prize of second place, but to her family, she brought home something much more valuable to home: the right example.
4. What can we know about Jacqueline from paragraph 2
A. She was born with little sports talent.
B. Her goal was to win a championship.
C. Her family opposed her going for a run.
D. She had to train full-time to achieve her dream.
5. Why did the male runner struggle to drink from a plastic bottle
A. He was disabled.
B. He didn’t like bottled water.
C. He was running forward in a hurry.
D. He competed with other runners for water.
6. What happened after Jacqueline helped the male runner
A. She won second place at last.
B. She was criticised by her family.
C. She was disqualified for going against rules.
D. She fell behind several runners and gave up.
7. What is the attitude of Jacqueline’s family towards her deed
A. Cautious. B. Approval. C. Critieal. D. Disappointed.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. A 7. B

The ocean is critical to all oxygen-dependent life. But life is also critical to the ocean. The ocean produces so much oxygen because of ocean plants, which draw down Co and change it into carbon-based sugars and oxygen. Ocean plants are climate change heroes! There is now a wide recognition of the role of ocean life in slowing climate change.
On many Pacific islands, whales support tourism economies. While concerned about the impacts of climate change on whales, we also need to recognize that whales can contribute to fighting climate change!Through their deep dives, vast migrations, long lifespan(寿命), and large bodies, whales have an enormous effect on the ocean.
Whales both help ocean plants to draw down CO and help to store carbon in the ocean. Firstly, they provide essential nutrients that enable ocean plants to grow. Whale waste is a fertilizer, bringing nutrients from the depths, where whales feed, to the surface, where plants need these nutrients to grow well. Migratory whales also bring nutrients with them from highly-productive feeding grounds to the nutrient-poor waters of whales’ breeding grounds, boosting the growth of ocean plants across the ocean.
Secondly, whales keep the carbon locked in the ocean, out of the atmosphere, where it could otherwise contribute to climate change. Ocean plants produce carbon-based sugars, but with a very short lifespan. They can’t store the carbon. When they die, much carbon is released in surface waters, and can be changed back to CO2. Whales, however, can live for over a century, feeding on food chains that begin with the sugars in these tiny plants, and storing up the carbon in their bodies. When whales die, deep ocean life feeds on their remains, and the carbon formerly stored in whales’ bodies can enter sediment(沉淀物), When carbon reaches deep ocean sediment, it is effectively locked away, and therefore unable to drive climate change. This carbon is unlikely to return as CO2 in the atmosphere.
Several Pacific island countries are already leaders in whale conservation, having declared whale sanctuaries in their waters. Every year, whales socialize, breed, and give birth in Pacific island waters.
8. How do surface ocean plants get nutrients for growth
A. From whale waste. B. From the whales’ bodies.
C. From the sunlight. D. From ocean sediment.
9. Why are ocean plants unable to store the carbon
A. They lack nutrients for growth.
B. They never absorb carbon-based sugars.
C Carbon-based sugars can’t be generated by them.
D. The carbon in them is released after their death.
10. What does the underlined word “sanctuaries” in the last paragraph mean
A. Shelters. B. Imports. C. Markets. D. Amusements.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. The importance of oceans to climate.
B. The bad effects of CO2 to climate changes.
C. The role of whales in slowing climate change.
D. The importance of oceans to all oxygen-dependent life.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一片说明文。文章指出生命对海洋至关重要，并且讲述了鲸鱼对海洋和环境的重要性。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Whale waste is a fertilizer, bringing nutrients from the depths, where whales feed, to the surface, where plants need these nutrients to grow well.(鲸鱼排泄物是一种肥料，将营养物质从鲸鱼觅食的深处带到水的表面，植物需要这些营养物质才能生长良好。)”可知，鲸的粪便是一种肥料，海面上的植物需要这些营养来很好地生长。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Ocean plants produce carbon-based sugars, but with a very short lifespan. They can’t store the carbon. When they die, much carbon is released in surface waters, and can be changed back to CO2.(海洋植物生产碳基糖，但寿命很短。他们无法储存碳。当它们死亡时，地表水中会释放出大量的碳，并可以转化为二氧化碳。)”可知，海洋植物的寿命很短，它们体内的碳是在它们死后释放出来。故选D。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段第一句“Several Pacific island countries are already leaders in whale conservation, having declared whale sanctuaries in their waters.(几个太平洋岛国已经成为鲸鱼保护的领导者，并宣布在其水域设立鲸鱼sanctuaries 。”可知，几个太平洋岛国在鲸鱼保护方面已经达到领先水平，并公布了他们水域的鲸鱼保护区。)”根据语境可知，sanctuaries意为“避难所；庇护所”。A.Shelters避难所，庇护所；B.Imports进口，进口商品；C.Markets市场；D.Amusements娱乐。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“we also need to recognize that whales can contribute to fighting climate change!我们也需要认识到鲸鱼可以为应对气候变化做出贡献”第三段中“Whales both help ocean plants to draw down CO and help to store carbon in the ocean.(其次，鲸鱼将碳锁在海洋中，而不是大气中，否则它可能会导致气候变化。)”第四段中“Secondly, whales keep the carbon locked in the ocean, out of the atmosphere, where it could otherwise contribute to climate change.(鲸鱼既能帮助海洋植物吸收二氧化碳，又能帮助海洋储存碳。)” 可知，文章主要阐述了鲸在减缓气候变化的进程方面作用。故选C。
D
New York has become the most recent state to ban the sale of some animals in pet stores. A new law signed by Governor Kathy Hochul bans the sale of dogs, cats, and rabbits in retail shops. The new law encourages pet stores to work with animal rescue groups and shelters to make space for rescued animals that are available for adoption.
California was the first state to pass a retail ban in 2017. Maryland followed in 2018 and a statewide ban in Illinois went into effect in February. Maine and Washington passed laws that ban the sales in new pet stores. Now, more than 300 cities and counties throughout the United States have passed pet-sale bans. There are at least 10,000 commercial pet stores in the country, and fewer than 3,000 of them are regulated by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, according to the estimates from the Humane Society of the United States.
In these commercial pet stores, animals are usually kept in dirty, crowded cages with limited access to medical care and human interaction. They often don’t get enough to eat or drink, have little protection from cold or heat; and don’t have a separate place to go to the bathroom. Many animals raised in the commercial pet stores go on to have physical and emotional problems.
Although conditions are often horrible, commercial pet stores are usually legal unless authorities are called in to close those with extremely inhumane (不人道的) conditions. “Dogs, cats, and rabbits across New York deserve loving homes and humane treatment,” Governor Hochul said in a statement. “I’m proud to sign this law, which will make meaningful steps to cut down on bad treatment and protect the welfare of animals across the state.” However, some pet store owners have argued that the law will cause a large quantity of pet stores in New York to close.
12. What is the new law signed by Governor Kathy Hochul about
A. Avoiding abusing pets.
B. Preventing adopting pets.
C. Forbidding distributing pets.
D. Forbidding trading certain pets in pet stores.
13. What’s the main idea of paragraph 3
A. The operation mode of commercial pet stores.
B. The problems faced by commercial pet stores.
C. The poor living conditions of the pets in pet stores.
D. The physical and emotional problems of some animals.
14. What can we learn about the law from the last paragraph
A. It is well received.
B. It is highly profitable.
C. It takes ages to see the results.
D. It may also have its shortcoming.
15. Which is the most suitable title for the text
A. New York state offers medical care to animals
B. New York state bans pet stores from selling some animals
C. New York state assists pet store owners with laws
D. New York state ignores the horrible conditions of pets
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲的是纽约成为最近一个禁止在宠物店出售某些动物的州，现在，美国有300多个城市和县通过了宠物销售禁令。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“A new law signed by Governor Kathy Hochul bans the sale of dogs, cats, and rabbits in retail shops.(州长Kathy Hochul签署了一项新法律，禁止零售商店出售狗、猫和兔子。)”可知，Kathy Hochul州长签署的新法律是关于禁止在宠物店交易某些宠物。故选D。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段的“In these commercial pet stores, animals are usually kept in dirty, crowded cages with limited access to medical care and human interaction. They often don’t get enough to eat or drink, have little protection from cold or heat; and don’t have a separate place to go to the bathroom. Many animals raised in the commercial pet stores go on to have physical and emotional problems.(在这些商业宠物店里，动物通常被关在肮脏拥挤的笼子里，获得医疗护理和与人交流的机会有限。他们经常没有足够的食物或饮料，几乎没有抵御寒冷或炎热的保护;而且没有单独的地方上厕所。许多在商业宠物店饲养的动物后来出现了身体和情绪上的问题。)”可知，第三段的主旨是宠物店里宠物的生活条件很差。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段的“However, some pet store owners have argued that the law will cause a large quantity of pet stores in New York to close.(然而，一些宠物店老板认为，这项法律将导致纽约大量宠物店关闭。)”可知，从最后一段我们可以了解到这项法律也可能有它的缺点。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“New York has become the most recent state to ban the sale of some animals in pet stores. A new law signed by Governor Kathy Hochul bans the sale of dogs, cats, and rabbits in retail shops. The new law encourages pet stores to work with animal rescue groups and shelters to make space for rescued animals that are available for adoption.(纽约成为最近一个禁止在宠物店出售某些动物的州。州长Kathy Hochul签署了一项新法律，禁止零售商店出售狗、猫和兔子。新法律鼓励宠物店与动物救援组织和收容所合作，为获救的动物腾出空间供收养。)”可知，本文主要讲的是纽约成为最近一个禁止在宠物店出售某些动物的州，现在，美国有300多个城市和县通过了宠物销售禁令，因此最恰当的题目是B选项“New York state bans pet stores from selling some animals(纽约州禁止宠物店出售某些动物)”，故选B。

考查动词时态。句意：在我遇到的众多朋友中，有萨莎，一位年轻、美丽、勤奋的单身母亲。根据句意可知，meet表示的动作发生在过去，可用一般过去时；也可表示过去发生的事情对现在的影响，用现在完成时。故填met/have met。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意：她让我了解了商业世界。introduce sb. to sth.是固定搭配，表示“向某人介绍某物，使某人了解某物”。故填to。
【42题详解】
考查名词。句意：除了学习，我有机会去许多城市出差和娱乐。该空与and前的business并列，所以要用其名词形式。pleasure意为“愉快，玩乐”。故填pleasure。
【43题详解】
考查关系词/连词。句意：此外，我还有机会参加当地的中国才艺比赛，我还获得了一些奖项。分析句子结构可知，空处可用where引导一个非限制性定语从句，指代前面的先行词competitions，且在从句中作地点状语。此处用and也可，表示承接关系。故填where/and。
【44题详解】
考查冠词。句意：这些是我将在余生珍惜的最难忘的时刻：能够融入中国社会和中国的生活方式，以及被接受和珍惜的经历。the rest of...表示“剩余的……”。故填the。
【45题详解】
考查形容词。句意：我是作为一名留学生来到中国的，但六年后，我不仅成了一名合格的医生，而且还成了一名女商人，拥有圆满、平衡的生活，充满了美好的回忆和对中国的广泛了解。该空前面有冠词，后面有名词，所以该空应用形容词qualified作定语，表示“具备……的学历(或资历)，合格的”。故填qualified。

Marathon is one of the most difficult races in track and field, at a little over 42 kilometers. To be a world-class marathoner, you must run that distance in two and a half hours. But for some, completing a marathon race is a lifelong dream.
Jacqueline’s dream of being a world-class runner began when she was a child in Kenya. She soon realized she had the talent and the willpower to compete. She also knew she would have to train full-time, which meant not being able to work to help support her family. But she was confident that she could bring home prize money.
Jacqueline traveled to China to compete in the Zheng-Kai marathon knowing she had a good shot at winning the race, but more importantly, the $10,000 prize that went with it. She was leading the women’s division when a male runner arrived at the water station. The man had trouble drinking water because a birth defect(缺陷)had left him without hands, and he struggled to drink from a plastic bottle. But any assistance from fans or race officials would result in his disqualification. Jacqueline noticed the man and immediately knew that he needed help. She grabbed a water bottle and helped him get the water his body needed to complete the race.
Runner after runner passed Jacqueline. Her hopes of winning were getting lost in numerous runners ahead of her. With only 4 kilometers left in the race, and certain that the male runner would now finish, Jacqueline picked up her pace and finally finished second.
That day, Jacqueline missed out on first place, but she finished something more important: humanity. She returned home with the smaller prize of second place, but to her family, she brought home something much more valuable to home: the right example.
4. What can we know about Jacqueline from paragraph 2
A. She was born with little sports talent.
B. Her goal was to win a championship.
C. Her family opposed her going for a run.
D. She had to train full-time to achieve her dream.
5. Why did the male runner struggle to drink from a plastic bottle
A. He was disabled.
B. He didn’t like bottled water.
C. He was running forward in a hurry.
D. He competed with other runners for water.
6. What happened after Jacqueline helped the male runner
A. She won second place at last.
B. She was criticised by her family.
C. She was disqualified for going against rules.
D. She fell behind several runners and gave up.
7. What is the attitude of Jacqueline’s family towards her deed
A. Cautious. B. Approval. C. Critieal. D. Disappointed.
C
The ocean is critical to all oxygen-dependent life. But life is also critical to the ocean. The ocean produces so much oxygen because of ocean plants, which draw down Co and change it into carbon-based sugars and oxygen. Ocean plants are climate change heroes! There is now a wide recognition of the role of ocean life in slowing climate change.
On many Pacific islands, whales support tourism economies. While concerned about the impacts of climate change on whales, we also need to recognize that whales can contribute to fighting climate change!Through their deep dives, vast migrations, long lifespan(寿命), and large bodies, whales have an enormous effect on the ocean.
Whales both help ocean plants to draw down CO and help to store carbon in the ocean. Firstly, they provide essential nutrients that enable ocean plants to grow. Whale waste is a fertilizer, bringing nutrients from the depths, where whales feed, to the surface, where plants need these nutrients to grow well. Migratory whales also bring nutrients with them from highly-productive feeding grounds to the nutrient-poor waters of whales’ breeding grounds, boosting the growth of ocean plants across the ocean.
Secondly, whales keep the carbon locked in the ocean, out of the atmosphere, where it could otherwise contribute to climate change. Ocean plants produce carbon-based sugars, but with a very short lifespan. They can’t store the carbon. When they die, much carbon is released in surface waters, and can be changed back to CO2. Whales, however, can live for over a century, feeding on food chains that begin with the sugars in these tiny plants, and storing up the carbon in their bodies. When whales die, deep ocean life feeds on their remains, and the carbon formerly stored in whales’ bodies can enter sediment(沉淀物), When carbon reaches deep ocean sediment, it is effectively locked away, and therefore unable to drive climate change. This carbon is unlikely to return as CO2 in the atmosphere.
Several Pacific island countries are already leaders in whale conservation, having declared whale sanctuaries in their waters. Every year, whales socialize, breed, and give birth in Pacific island waters.
8. How do surface ocean plants get nutrients for growth
A. From whale waste. B. From the whales’ bodies.
C. From the sunlight. D. From ocean sediment.
9. Why are ocean plants unable to store the carbon
A. They lack nutrients for growth.
B. They never absorb carbon-based sugars.
C. Carbon-based sugars can’t be generated by them.
D. The carbon in them is released after their death.
10. What does the underlined word “sanctuaries” in the last paragraph mean
A. Shelters. B. Imports. C. Markets. D. Amusements.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. The importance of oceans to climate.
B. The bad effects of CO2 to climate changes.
C. The role of whales in slowing climate change.
D. The importance of oceans to all oxygen-dependent life.

New York has become the most recent state to ban the sale of some animals in pet stores. A new law signed by Governor Kathy Hochul bans the sale of dogs, cats, and rabbits in retail shops. The new law encourages pet stores to work with animal rescue groups and shelters to make space for rescued animals that are available for adoption.
California was the first state to pass a retail ban in 2017. Maryland followed in 2018 and a statewide ban in Illinois went into effect in February. Maine and Washington passed laws that ban the sales in new pet stores. Now, more than 300 cities and counties throughout the United States have passed pet-sale bans. There are at least 10,000 commercial pet stores in the country, and fewer than 3,000 of them are regulated by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, according to the estimates from the Humane Society of the United States.
In these commercial pet stores, animals are usually kept in dirty, crowded cages with limited access to medical care and human interaction. They often don’t get enough to eat or drink, have little protection from cold or heat; and don’t have a separate place to go to the bathroom. Many animals raised in the commercial pet stores go on to have physical and emotional problems.
Although conditions are often horrible, commercial pet stores are usually legal unless authorities are called in to close those with extremely inhumane (不人道的) conditions. “Dogs, cats, and rabbits across New York deserve loving homes and humane treatment,” Governor Hochul said in a statement. “I’m proud to sign this law, which will make meaningful steps to cut down on bad treatment and protect the welfare of animals across the state.” However, some pet store owners have argued that the law will cause a large quantity of pet stores in New York to close.
12. What is the new law signed by Governor Kathy Hochul about
A. Avoiding abusing pets.
B. Preventing adopting pets.
C. Forbidding distributing pets.
D. Forbidding trading certain pets in pet stores.
13. What’s the main idea of paragraph 3
A. The operation mode of commercial pet stores.
B. The problems faced by commercial pet stores.
C. The poor living conditions of the pets in pet stores.
D. The physical and emotional problems of some animals.
14. What can we learn about the law from the last paragraph
A. It is well received.
B. It is highly profitable.
C. It takes ages to see the results.
D. It may also have its shortcoming.
15 Which is the most suitable title for the text
A. New York state offers medical care to animals
B. New York state bans pet stores from selling some animals
C. New York state assists pet store owners with laws
D. New York state ignores the horrible conditions of pets
