Medha Pappula, an eight-grader at Brambleton Middle School, is using her skill set to solve a problem — bullying. She recently earned an award from National Bullying Prevention Center (NBPC) for her anti-bullying efforts in software development and animation (动画).
Pappula, 13, said she discovered that a classmate had experienced cyberbullying, which was painful for her to learn about. “Even though I didn’t experience it, I wouldn’t wish that on anyone, even my worst enemy.” Pappula said.
Then she developed a program. “It takes a message, and then recognizes signs of bullying and gives a rating (评级) to the cyberbullying.” the teen said. “If the rating is high, the program can be used to carry out things like removing that message or reporting it.”
In addition to this program, the NBPC awarded Pappula for a three-minute animated video about Unity Day, which she created and shared on YouTube last October. Unity Day was started by the NBPC in 2011 to raise bullying awareness among school-age children. Schools encourage their students to wear orange on Unity Day, as it is a color that is connected with safety.
Pappula visited different websites to develop her animation skills several years ago. She spent more than a month creating her 2-D animated video using an animation software called Krita. The effort paid off, as nearly 6000 people have already viewed the “Unity Day” video on YouTube. Pappula hopes to continue to work with the NBPC and use her skills to lift those around her.
24．What do we know about cyberbullying according to Pappula
A．It was her painful experience B．It was her worst enemy
C．It shouldn’t happen to anyone D．It could be stopped easily
25．What can’t Pappula’s program do
A．Take a message. B．Carry out bullying.
C．Recognize signs of bullying. D．Give a rating to the cyberbullying.
26．What efforts did Pappula make to create the 2-D animated video
A．She developed the skills herself. B．She asked schools for help.
C．She learned from YouTube. D．She developed Krita.
27．What can be the best title for the text
A．A Cyberbullying Experience B．An Anti-bullying Software
C．A Bullying Prevention Center D．An Anti-bullying Teenager

Lifelong learning is how you improve as a person, bit by bit and day by day. Lifelong learners recognize the importance and joy of growth so they never settle for what they currently know and always seek for improvement. Here are some habits people who value lifelong learning have in common, and see how many of them you recognize in yourself.
Whatever problem or dilemma (困境) you currently face, there's definitely at least one decent book that discusses it and presents different kinds of solutions. Reading is a great way to open up new horizons, train your brain and change your life completely. Through reading, you can connect with successful people and learn from the lessons they share. Lifelong learners love to be lost in books and do it regularly.
Whether it’s online or offline, there are countless courses you can participate in for free. These are great opportunities to connect with clever and like-minded people and learn from them. Because of advanced technology, you can now gain knowledge from online programs. What lifelong learners have in common is squeezing as much as possible out of these opportunities.
Instead of spending your free time lying on the couch and watching TV, you should do something creative and practical. You know every wasted minute is gone forever. Lifelong learners stay up-to-date with growth opportunities in their areas and participate in them frequently.
As a lifelong learner, if behind the efforts, there is a deep desire to grow, your chances of success are much higher compared to when you are forced to learn. Lifelong learners love to experience the constant growth and improvement. In order to keep growing, you are supposed to clearly define your goals. Smart goal setting is one of the tools to insure constant growth.
28. How does reading affect us
A. It broadens our horizons.
B. We learn some practical knowledge.
C. We realize our present thinking patterns.
D. It offers effective solutions to problems.
29. What does paragraph 3 encourage people to do
A. Try to choose the suitable courses.

Last Thursday, the world’s first self-driving, electric container ship made its first trip to Oslo, Norway. The ship’s owners aim to cut pollution by transporting large quantities of products by water on the southern coastal of Norway instead of by truck.
The ship, called the Yara Burkeland, is owned by Yara, a company that makes fertilizer (肥料). The company wanted to develop a zero-emission (零排放的) ship that was completely self-driving. Yara worked with a ship-building company called Vard and the technology company Kongsberg to develop the ship. The company says that in the future everything, including loading and unloading the ship, will be handled completely automatically.
The Yara Birkeland can carry 120 large containers like those pulled by trucks. But the ship is fully electric and is powered by batteries. The company says the ship has roughly as many batteries as 100 electric cars. The electricity that will be used to recharge the batteries is from renewable hydroelectric (水力发电) sources, so there’s no pollution at all.
The Yara Birkeland won’t usually be going to Oslo, and it won’t be traveling far, either. It will travel along a regular route from Yara’s factory in Porsgrunn up to the port in Brevik. By road, that’s a distance of about 14 kilometers. Yara normally uses diesel-powered（柴油动力的）trucks to move fertilizer between these locations.
Now, with the Yara Birkeland moving huge amounts of fertilizer by water, the company expects to suspend 40, 000 yearly trips by diesel-powered trucks. That will prevent about one million kilograms of carbon emissions every year.
In the future, as an autonomous ship, the Yara Birkeland is expected to operate without any human involved. Yara plans to spend the next two years improving and testing the ship. But, as with many autonomous cars, the ship will continue to have humans watching over even if it is driving by itself.
32．Why will the products be delivered by ship rather than by truck
A．To reduce the transport costs. B．To shorten their delivery time.
C．Out of environmental concern. D．Out of concern for their safety.
33．What can be learned about the Yara Bikeland
A．It uses natural gas as power. B．It has more than one developers.
C．It is a completely self-driving ship. D．It belongs to the government.
34. How does the author mainly introduce the ship and its influence
A．By listing figures. B．By giving examples.
C．By presenting reasons. D．By following time order.
35．What does the underlined word “suspend” in Paragraph 5 mean
A. Roll out. B. Stick to. C. Cut out. D. Turn to.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
What is heritage The word can be difficult to define. Heritage is always something that is passed down by families or other groups for many years. 36 It can also be the customs, traditions, and values shared by groups of people. One way to think about heritage is to break it down into three groups. These are the tangible (有形的), the natural, and the intangible.
37 It can include many human-made objects that hold cultural value. Some examples are national monuments and works of art. Many ancient sites are also part of this group. On a smaller scale, a family home can be part of an individual’s heritage.
Many parts of the natural world are also important to cultural heritage. This can include bodies of water, plant life, landforms and more. One example is the Nile River. 38 Efforts to protect natural heritage are key in many cultures.
The intangible group includes any part of cultural heritage that you can’t feel through touch. Maybe you’ve read about forms of dance, like Flamenco dancing. You might know about the music of Mariachi Bands or holidays like Eid. These are all examples of intangible heritage. 39
Exploring your own heritage can be fun. It can help you learn about yourself, your family, and your ancestors. But it’s also important to learn about the heritage of others. 40 It can also lead you to find things you may have in common with others!
A．They are treasures that can be touched.
B．What tangible items can be part of heritage
C．However, heritage isn’t limited to concrete objects.
D．Languages, holidays and customs also make the list.
E．Therefore, it’s difficult to protect them from fading away.
F．Doing so can help you build a stronger understanding of other cultures.
G．It has been part of cultural heritage in many African nations for centuries.

第二节：
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“Mom, I’m ready to go,” called Jason.
Every Saturday, Jason looked forward to going to Chinatown to shop for food because his mom let him pick his favorite snacks: roast pork buns and bubble tea.
The streets in Chinatown were crowded with cars and pedestrians（行人）. His mother could not find the same exotic（异国的）vegetables in the local supermarkets, so they always came here to shop. What fascinated Jason was tasty roast pork, even the whole pigs hanging on big hooks in the windows, their skins roasted to a glistening（闪闪发光的）brown. Jason’s mouth would water just looking at them.
As they passed the newsstand carrying Chinese newspapers and magazines, Jason spotted an old man sitting on the sidewalk. His hair was long, white, and messy. The face beneath was lined, dirty, and unshaven. Frayed（磨损的）and torn clothing wrapped around his thin frame, and in this kind of cold weather, he even wore sandals, his feet blue with cold. He banged（猛敲）an empty can against the sidewalk. As Jason walked by, he could smell a musty odor (臭味）and pinched his nostrils（鼻孔）together. The old man reached out and touched Jason’s left leg. Instinctively（本能地）, Jason gathered all his strength to jerk (猛拉) his leg away and kick the old man’s hand heavily. Frightened, he hurried to catch up with his mother without looking back.
“Mom, the old man touched me,” he cried, “He touched me with his dirty hands. It’s disgusting! And he smelled too.”
Jason’s mother glanced back at the man with a look of understanding and said gently, “Jason, he can’t help it. He’s homeless. He didn’t mean any harm.”
Mom’s words made Jason look back at the old man with regret, who now was looking up at other passersby, still banging his can.
On their way home, Jason asked, his voice filled with concern. “Why is that old man homeless Where does he sleep ”
“I don’t know. It’s tough to be homeless, especially in this cold weather. He did look quite weak,” his mother replied.
Mom’s words made Jason’s regret deepened. He confessed his heavy kick to his mother, who reminded him that it was crucial to acknowledge his mistake and try to make up for it.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The next day, with his mother’s help, Jason decided to do something. ___________________
