A few years ago, I was an English professor, and I asked my students to finish a paper during the holiday. Mike, one of my students, came to class without it. He explained that his safe(保险柜)had been stolen by a worker who was repairing his house. His notebook computer was in the safe, where his paper was. I was sure that he didn't tell a lie because he had been a really good student.
Then over the two weeks, Mike started to show up to class looking very tired. He said that he was on a hunt for the guy who stole his safe, and he was spending late nights with his cousin driving around looking for the thief because they knew his car. They wanted to find the thief and get the safe back because his living expenses were in it besides the paper.
Then Mike rewrote the paper and turned it in. It wasn't up to his usual quality, and he still kept coming to class looking like he hadn't slept all night. One day, he came very happily to my office, and he reported that he had found the thief after a long search that involved experiencing dangerous situations. He said that they found the thief's car in front of a big supermarket, and they caught him and sent him to the police station.
I read the news that Mike had in fact put an end to the thief's attempt to steal from the supermarket. It turned out that Mike got his money and notebook computer back. I gladly accepted his original paper, and it got a much higher grade than the rewritten one because of his virtues. And I reminded him that he should be responsible for his own safety and talk to me or other teachers first if he met with anything like that.
24.What was the problem with Mike
A.He was often late for class.
B.He always got low marks in exams.
C.He failed to hand in his paper on time.
D.He stayed up too late writing his paper.
25.What did Mike do at night over the two weeks
A.He tried to earn his living expenses.
B.He practised driving with his cousin.
C.He went to the class which the professor taught.
D.He sought for the house repairman who had stolen his safe.
26.What happened to the thief finally
A.He voluntarily admitted the theft.
B.He was handed over to the police.
C.He escaped from a big supermarket.
D.He was reported caught by the professor.
27.Which words best describe Mike
A.Brave and honest. B.Imaginative and creative.
C.Smart but lazy. D.Poor but happy.
【答案】24.C

【点评】考查阅读理解。本篇文章涉及细节理解题和推理判断题两种题型。细节理解题要求考生能在快速阅读文章的同时,从中获取某些特定的直接信息或理解特定信息的意义。做细节理解题时,要根据题干中的关键词,找准相关句、段的内容,再仔细对照,不符合原文意义的选项要首先排除,反之,则是正确选项。做推理判断题时,要求考生不能凭主观臆断推测或妄加猜测,必须忠实于原文,以材料所提供的相关事实和线索为依据,使做出的推理合乎文意。需要注意:审清题目要求;锁定关键信息;挖掘隐含信息;排除干扰选项;把握语境情感;逻辑推理分析。
24.细节理解题。根据第一段的"A few years ago, I was an English professor, and I asked my students to finish a paper during the holiday. Mike, one of my students, came to class without it. He explained that his safe (保险柜)had been stolen by a worker who was repairing his house. His notebook computer was in the safe, where his paper was. (几年前,我是一名英语教授,我要求我的学生在假期里完成一篇论文。迈克,我的一个学生,上课时没带它。他解释说他的保险箱被一个修理他房子的工人偷走了。他的笔记本电脑在保险柜里,包括他的论文)"可知,开学时迈克没能按时交论文。故选C。
25.细节理解题。根据第二段的"Then over the two weeks, Mike started to show up to class looking very tired. He said that he was on a hunt for the guy who stole his safe, and he was spending late nights with his cousin driving around looking for the thief because they knew his car.(之后的两周,迈克开始上课时看起来很累。他说他当时在追捕偷他保险箱的人,而且他经常和他的表弟一起开到很晚的车到处找小偷因为他们认识他的车)"可知,事发后的两周迈克一直在寻找偷了他保险柜的修理工。故选D。
26.细节理解题。根据第三段的"He said that they found the thief's car in front of a big super-market, and they caught him and sent him to the police station.(他说他们在一个大超市前面发现了小偷的车,他们抓住了他,把他送到了警察局)"可知,小偷最后被迈克抓住并移交给了警察局。故选B。
27.推理判断题。通读全文可知,迈克暑假后坦白自己没交论文是因为被修理工偷了,之后花了两周找到小偷,并将其移交给警察局,由此推知,迈克是诚实且勇敢的。故选A。

Japan's government announced Tuesday, April 13, 2021 that it would start releasing treated radioactive water from the wrecked Fukushima nuclear plant into the Pacific Ocean in two years.
It's a move that's fiercely opposed by fishermen, residents and Japan's neighbors.
15 April, the first meeting of the China-ROK dialogue and cooperation mechanism of maritime affairs was held. The two countries urged Japan to fully consult with international institutions and neighboring countries, and cautiously handle the issue on the basis of participation by relevant countries and international institutions. This is the common position of the two sides. To protect the health of their own people and international marine environment, China and the ROK, as Japan's close neighbors and stakeholders, expressed grave concerns and strong dissatisfaction. This is perfectly natural and justified.
Assessment report of the IAEA experts says that the treated water from the Fukushima nuclear plant contains other radionuclides apart from tritium. According to Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), the nuclear wastewater contains a total of 62 radionuclides. In August 2018, environmentalists found by analyzing data released by TEPCO that iodine-129 levels went off the chart for 60 times in the year 2017. The amount of strontium in the water is also well above the limit. It is reported that Canada has detected radioactivecaesium-134 in salmon from its west coast. In waters near Hawaii, the amount of radioactive materials is twice it was before. These are signs that nuclear pollution from Fukushima may have already spread to North America.
The oceans are not Japan's trash can; and the Pacific Ocean is not Japan's sewer. Japan should not expect the world to pay the bill for its treatment of wastewater. The lesson from Japan's Minamata disease is not far behind us. It should reevaluate the issue and control releasing the wastewater before reaching agreement with all stakeholders and the IAEA through full consultations. China reserves the right to make further reactions.
28.Which of the following will the author agree with
A.Japan will pour untreated radioactive water into Pacific Ocean.
B.Either China or ROK stands opposite to Japan.
C.The nuclear wastewater was predicted to contain 62 radionuclides.
D.Japan's Minamata disease has taught us a lesson.
29.What is the attitude of Japan towards the meeting
A.Approving B.Disapproving C.Not mentioned D.Neutral
30.What does the underlined expression "went off the chart" mean
A.set off the anger of the public
B.were much higher than the standard
C.went against the requirement of the international institution.
D.disappeared from the rank chart for qualification
31.What's the best title of the passage
A.Japan shocked the world by releasing radioactive water.
B.Japan plans to put the treated nuclear wastewater into the Pacific.
C.The Pacific Ocean-Japan's trash producer
D.Is Japan going to reevaluate its behaviour
【答案】28.D
29.C
30.B
31.B
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道,日本政府于2021年4月13日周二宣布,将在两年内从受损的福岛核电站开始向太平洋排放经处理的放射性水。此举遭到渔民、居民和日本邻国的强烈反对。本文报道了其它邻国、专家对此举的态度,同时中方保留作出进一步反应的权利。
【点评】本题考点涉及推理判断,词义猜测和主旨大意三个题型的考查,是一篇新闻报道,首先要仔细阅读短文,掌握大意,然后结合具体的题目,再读短文,从中找出相关信息,就可以确定正确答案。
28.考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的"The oceans are not Japan's trash can; and the Pacific Ocean is not Japan's sewer. Japan should not expect the world to pay the bill for its treatment of wastewater. The lesson from Japan's Minamata disease is not far behind us."海洋不是日本的垃圾桶;太平洋也不是日本的下水道。日本不应该指望世界为它的废水处理买单。日本水俣病的教训离我们不远。可推知"日本的水俣病给了我们教训"的观点作者可能会认同。故选D。
29.考查推理判断。根据第三段"15 April, the first meeting of the China-ROK dialogue and cooperation mechanism of maritime affairs was held. The two countries urged Japan to fully consult with international institutions and neighboring countries, and cautiously handle the issue on the basis of participation by relevant countries and international institutions. This is the common position of the two sides. To protect the health of their own people and international marine environment, China and the ROK, as Japan's close neighbors and stakeholders, expressed grave concerns and strong dissatisfaction. This is perfectly natural and justified."4月15日,中韩海洋事务对话与合作机制首次会议举行。双方敦促日方与国际机构和周边国家充分协商,在有关国家和国际机构参与的基础上慎重处理。这是双方的共同立场。作为日本的近邻和利益攸关方,为保护本国人民健康和国际海洋环境,中韩两国表达了严重关切和强烈不满。这是完全自然和合理的。可推知,文中没有提到日方对此次会议持何态度。故选C。
30.考查词义猜测。根据第四段中的"The amount of strontium in the water is also well above the limit. It is reported that Canada has detected radioactivecaesium-134 in salmon from its west coast. In waters near Hawaii, the amount of radioactive materials is twice it was before."水中的锶含量也远远超过了限制。据报道,加拿大在其西海岸的鲑鱼中检测到了放射性铯-134。在夏威夷附近的水域,放射性物质的数量是以前的两倍;以及"for 60 times in the year 2017"可知,2018年8月,环保人士通过分析东京电力公司发布的数据发现,2017年,碘-129的含量超标60倍,远远高于标准。可推知画线部分 went off the chart 意思是"远远高于标准"。故选B。
31.考查主旨大意。根据第一段"Japan's government announced Tuesday, April 13, 2021 that it would start releasing treated radioactive water from the wrecked Fukushima nuclear plant into the Pacific Ocean in two years."日本政府于2021年4月13日周二宣布,将在两年内从受损的福岛核电站开始向太平洋排放经处理的放射性水;结合文章还介绍了其它邻国、专家对此举的态度,同时中方保留作出进一步反应的权利。"日本计划将处理过的核废水排入太平洋"适合做文章标题。故选B。

In Birmingham, one school is offering its students an education that will change their lives. The unique program is called Build UP, which enables students to earn a high school certificate while working as paid apprentices (学徒) in construction work. As part of their training, they remodel old and abandoned houses in their neighborhood!
At any school, the burden on students can be heavy, and for those in low-income areas, it is much heavier. "The kids that I've worked with during my entire career are all from disadvantaged groups with all the challenges that come with poverty," said educator Mark Martin. So he founded Build UP in 2018 to offer students a different kind of education: real-world training.
As far as real-world issues are concerned, for low-income communities, one of the biggest needs is housing. That's why Build UP made construction their main focus, offering a combination of regular and specialized classes. That way, instead of hearing the age-old question "When am I ever going to use this " in a geometry class, their teachers are able to redirect students to a shop class (工艺课). There, students can connect those math principles to the building of a roof.
The program hopes to draw in students who are likely to quit school by offering wages for their apprenticeships. Students receive $125 every two weeks when they start out as apprentices and can eventually work up to getting $200 every two weeks. Upon graduation, they have the opportunity to get an interest-free loan to purchase the remodeled homes.
So far, they have been doing a pretty amazing job. And now with the help of a loan company, the program has the opportunity to bring their model to communities everywhere! They plan to first add similar programs in nearby neighborhoods. After that, they hope to train others to start similar schools and expand their network of partners — particularly construction companies that can offer jobs to their students.

From the dawn of civilization, paper records have been a method of keeping track of important and necessary documentation. A common experience throughout the world's record keeping has been the necessity to ensure that all documents are kept together, and none are lost.
36. These included tying ribbons through the paper, and melting wax to secure the papers in place. For nearly 600 years, these were the methods used to secure papers.
37. In 1835, a machine that could mass-produce straight pins was invented by Howe J. L. , an American inventor. Although straight pins (大头针)were originally designed for sewing and tailoring, people began using them as a quick and easy way to secure papers. 38. In 1899 he patented the device, which consisted of a wire bent into a particularly shaped hoop for the purpose of securing papers.
During this time, however, the paperclip (回形针)was not a widely distributed device. Therefore, the Gem Manufacturing Company of England developed a machine to manufacture and standardize the paperclip design. 39.
Today the paperclip is a famous invention used throughout offices, schoolrooms, and business throughout the world. 40.
A. The next paper invention was that of the straight pin.
B. Before the paper clip, people had to be creative to keep paper together.
C. The humble item only came into popular usage around the mid-19th century.
D. Later, inspired by the straight pin, Norwegian Vaaler J. came up with the idea of the first paperclip.
E. This manufacturing development allowed for the expansion of the modern paperclip worldwide.
F. Being a wonder of simplicity and function, the paperclip remains a standard office supply throughout the world.
G. Therefore, from the early 13th century people had created various methods to ensure documents were kept together.

【解析】【分析】本文主要讲述了地球上的很多动、植物已经灭绝,一百个物种每天都变得濒临绝境,我们应该采取措施保护野生动植物。
【点评】考查语法填空。有提示词的填空要求使用括号中词语的正确形式填空,主要考查谓语动词的时态和语态、非谓语动词、形容词或副词的比较级及最高级、名词的复数形式、词性或词形转化。无提示词的填空要求在不给出提示词的情况下填出符合上下文逻辑、词法、句法的单词,主要考查代词、冠词、介词、情态动词、并列连词、复合句、特殊句式等。解题需要注意的点如下。通读全文,了解大意,把握特征,弄清文脉;理解句意,分析结构,大胆推测,各个击破;重读全篇,仔细核查,语法正确,语意连贯;拼写正确,书写规范,大小写正确。
56.句意:地球上的很多动、植物已经灭绝。根据语境及already的提示可知句子用现在完成时态,故填died。
57.句意:一百个物种每天都变得濒临绝境。endangered为形容词化的过去分词形式,意为"濒临灭绝的",此处在become之后做表语,故填endangered。

60.句意:结果,动物们正在失去它们的栖息地,根据语境以及固定搭配"as a result结果,"可知,故填a。
61.句意:动物正在失去它们的栖息地。根据上一句"Wild animals live in the forests which are being destroyed by people "中的"are being destroyed"以及本段最后一句"And many animals are dying out because of pollution."中的"are dying out"的语境提示可知,该句要用现在进行时的主动语态,故填losing。
62.句意:我建议一些措施应该被采取去保护野生动物,分析句子结构可知,宾语从句为一个简单句,宾语从句的谓语是should be taken,因为一个简单句只有一个谓语,所以此处应该用protect的非谓语形式,再根据语境及句子结构分析可知,此处是动词不定式做目的状语,故填to protect。
63.句意:政府应该阻止人们毁坏森林并且关闭那些会污染河流和空气的工厂。根据语境分析以及固定搭配"keep sb. from doing sth.阻止某人做某事"可知,故填from。
64.句意:关闭污染河流和空气的工厂。此处factories是先行词,指物,且在后面的定语从句中做主语,故填which/that。
65.句意:我认为更多的野生动物保护区应该被建立。根据语境及句子结构分析可知,此处是宾语从句"more wildlife reserves should also be_____"的谓语且此处为被动语态,故填built。

Alex rode his bike on his way home, and Johnson's Pond came into view.
Sometimes his dad took him canoeing(划独木舟) there, and Alex loved it. The pond was always alive with activity, and sometimes Alex discovered turtles(乌龟) sunbathing on suing rocks Alex as curious about turtles. When it was too rainy to go canoeing, he often went to the library to check out books on turtles,
Now it looked like tomorrow might be another sunny day. He decided to ask Dad if they could go canoeing and look for turtles again. Suddenly Alex saw something in the road up ahead. It looked like a big gray rock. But it was a funny place for a rock to be. He jumped off to have a look.
And then, the rock started to move! It was actually a large turtle slowly making its way across the road! Alex knew right away it was a snapping turtle.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a car approaching The turtle was still only halfway across the road Alex knew he couldn't pick it up because snapping turtles have a powerful bite and they could even bite off someone's finger! What could he do
Thinking fast, he started waving both hands wildly. "Stop! Stop!" he cried. The car slowed to a stop.
"Are you alight, Alex " It was his neighbor, Mrs. Ramos.
"I'm fine, Mrs. Ram's." said Alex. "I'm just trying to save a turtle. It's probably going to lay egg."
"Oh, yeah. It's spring." said Mrs. Ram's. "So, I guess a lot of turtles need to lay their eggs in the grass across the road." Then she waved goodbye and drove off.
Alex thought about what Mrs. Ram's had said. "There would probably be more turtles trying to cross the road at this spot!" he realized. But he couldn't stand there all day trying to stop cars. He looked around and a road sign caught his eye. And then his face brightened.
Para1 He jumped on his bike and raced home to find Dad.
Para2 The next morning, Dad and Alex drove to the pond with the wooden sign in the car.
【答案】He jumped on his bike and raced home to find Dad. "Dad, can I have some old wood to make a wooden sign " Alex asked eagerly. Hearing Alex's full explanation, Dad then smiled knowingly. Then the father and son devoted themselves to cutting a wood board into the right "T" shape. After that, Alex wrote down a line with red paint on both sides of the sign, reading "Slow! Turtles Crossing!" Work all done, they put the wooden sign into their car and went for dinner.(75 words)
The next morning, Dad and Alex drove to the pond with the wooden sign in the car. Upon arriving, they sprang into action. Alex pulled the sign to the side of the road and held it tightly while Dad hammered it into the ground. Sweat dripping into their eyes, they worked with passion until the sign got fixed firmly in the ground. Alex stepped back and surveyed their work. "Slow! Turtles Crossing!" he read out loud and grinned. "Ready to go canoeing " "Yes!" Alex blur ted out, rushing to the pond with pride.(75 words)
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知,讲述了亚历克斯骑着自行车回家,在路路过约翰逊池塘的公路上他看到了池塘里的乌龟爬上岸来,然后爬过公路想去草坪产卵。亚历克斯为了确保这些乌龟过公路时不被汽车压死,他与他爸爸只做了标示牌。段落续写:①由第一段首句内容"他骑上自行车,回家找爸爸。"可知,第一段可描写亚历克斯回家告诉父亲自己看到和想到的关于乌龟过公路的事情,他父亲高兴地帮他做了标示牌。②由第二段首句内容"第二天早上,爸爸和亚历克斯开车去池塘,车里装着那个木牌子。"可知,第二段可描写父子两个将标示牌树立在池塘边上。写作时注意准确运用时态,上下文意思连贯,符合逻辑关系,尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式,同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。

A few years ago, I was an English professor, and I asked my students to finish a paper during the holiday. Mike, one of my students, came to class without it. He explained that his safe(保险柜)had been stolen by a worker who was repairing his house. His notebook computer was in the safe, where his paper was. I was sure that he didn't tell a lie because he had been a really good student.
Then over the two weeks, Mike started to show up to class looking very tired. He said that he was on a hunt for the guy who stole his safe, and he was spending late nights with his cousin driving around looking for the thief because they knew his car. They wanted to find the thief and get the safe back because his living expenses were in it besides the paper.
Then Mike rewrote the paper and turned it in. It wasn't up to his usual quality, and he still kept coming to class looking like he hadn't slept all night. One day, he came very happily to my office, and he reported that he had found the thief after a long search that involved experiencing dangerous situations. He said that they found the thief's car in front of a big supermarket, and they caught him and sent him to the police station.
I read the news that Mike had in fact put an end to the thief's attempt to steal from the supermarket. It turned out that Mike got his money and notebook computer back. I gladly accepted his original paper, and it got a much higher grade than the rewritten one because of his virtues. And I reminded him that he should be responsible for his own safety and talk to me or other teachers first if he met with anything like that.
24.What was the problem with Mike
A.He was often late for class.
B.He always got low marks in exams.
C.He failed to hand in his paper on time.
D.He stayed up too late writing his paper.
25.What did Mike do at night over the two weeks
A.He tried to earn his living expenses.
B.He practised driving with his cousin.
C.He went to the class which the professor taught.
D.He sought for the house repairman who had stolen his safe.
26.What happened to the thief finally
A.He voluntarily admitted the theft.
B.He was handed over to the police.
C.He escaped from a big supermarket.
D.He was reported caught by the professor.
27.Which words best describe Mike
A.Brave and honest. B.Imaginative and creative.
C.Smart but lazy. D.Poor but happy.

Japan's government announced Tuesday, April 13, 2021 that it would start releasing treated radioactive water from the wrecked Fukushima nuclear plant into the Pacific Ocean in two years.
It's a move that's fiercely opposed by fishermen, residents and Japan's neighbors.
15 April, the first meeting of the China-ROK dialogue and cooperation mechanism of maritime affairs was held. The two countries urged Japan to fully consult with international institutions and neighboring countries, and cautiously handle the issue on the basis of participation by relevant countries and international institutions. This is the common position of the two sides. To protect the health of their own people and international marine environment, China and the ROK, as Japan's close neighbors and stakeholders, expressed grave concerns and strong dissatisfaction. This is perfectly natural and justified.
Assessment report of the IAEA experts says that the treated water from the Fukushima nuclear plant contains other radionuclides apart from tritium. According to Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), the nuclear wastewater contains a total of 62 radionuclides. In August 2018, environmentalists found by analyzing data released by TEPCO that iodine-129 levels went off the chart for 60 times in the year 2017. The amount of strontium in the water is also well above the limit. It is reported that Canada has detected radioactivecaesium-134 in salmon from its west coast. In waters near Hawaii, the amount of radioactive materials is twice it was before. These are signs that nuclear pollution from Fukushima may have already spread to North America.
The oceans are not Japan's trash can; and the Pacific Ocean is not Japan's sewer. Japan should not expect the world to pay the bill for its treatment of wastewater. The lesson from Japan's Minamata disease is not far behind us. It should reevaluate the issue and control releasing the wastewater before reaching agreement with all stakeholders and the IAEA through full consultations. China reserves the right to make further reactions.
28.Which of the following will the author agree with
A.Japan will pour untreated radioactive water into Pacific Ocean.
B.Either China or ROK stands opposite to Japan.
C.The nuclear wastewater was predicted to contain 62 radionuclides.
D.Japan's Minamata disease has taught us a lesson.
29.What is the attitude of Japan towards the meeting
A.Approving B.Disapproving C.Not mentioned D.Neutral
30.What does the underlined expression "went off the chart" mean
A.set off the anger of the public
B.were much higher than the standard
C.went against the requirement of the international institution.
D.disappeared from the rank chart for qualification
31.What's the best title of the passage
A.Japan shocked the world by releasing radioactive water.
B.Japan plans to put the treated nuclear wastewater into the Pacific.
C.The Pacific Ocean-Japan's trash producer
D.Is Japan going to reevaluate its behaviour

In Birmingham, one school is offering its students an education that will change their lives. The unique program is called Build UP, which enables students to earn a high school certificate while working as paid apprentices (学徒) in construction work. As part of their training, they remodel old and abandoned houses in their neighborhood!
At any school, the burden on students can be heavy, and for those in low-income areas, it is much heavier. "The kids that I've worked with during my entire career are all from disadvantaged groups with all the challenges that come with poverty," said educator Mark Martin. So he founded Build UP in 2018 to offer students a different kind of education: real-world training.
As far as real-world issues are concerned, for low-income communities, one of the biggest needs is housing. That's why Build UP made construction their main focus, offering a combination of regular and specialized classes. That way, instead of hearing the age-old question "When am I ever going to use this " in a geometry class, their teachers are able to redirect students to a shop class (工艺课). There, students can connect those math principles to the building of a roof.
The program hopes to draw in students who are likely to quit school by offering wages for their apprenticeships. Students receive $125 every two weeks when they start out as apprentices and can eventually work up to getting $200 every two weeks. Upon graduation, they have the opportunity to get an interest-free loan to purchase the remodeled homes.
So far, they have been doing a pretty amazing job. And now with the help of a loan company, the program has the opportunity to bring their model to communities everywhere! They plan to first add similar programs in nearby neighborhoods. After that, they hope to train others to start similar schools and expand their network of partners — particularly construction companies that can offer jobs to their students.
32.Why did Mark Martin found Build UP
A.To lighten students' academic burden.
B.To help students from tough backgrounds.
C.To reconstruct and reuse unwanted houses.
D.To train students to build homes.
33.What is the feature of Build UP's classes
A.They combine theory and practice.
B.They teach knowledge of the bank loan.
C.They center on age-old unsolved questions.
D.They explain math principles in simple words.
34.What does the Build UP program expect to do
A.Reach out to more people.
B.Offer students more job opportunities.
C.Found more similar schools themselves.
D.Get more funds from construction companies.
35.Which of the following could be the best title for the text
A.Build UP: A Solution to the Housing Problem
B.Build UP: A Breakthrough in the Construction Industry
C.Build UP: Changing Community Education for the Better
D.Build UP: Giving Students Power Through Home Building

From the dawn of civilization, paper records have been a method of keeping track of important and necessary documentation. A common experience throughout the world's record keeping has been the necessity to ensure that all documents are kept together, and none are lost.
36. These included tying ribbons through the paper, and melting wax to secure the papers in place. For nearly 600 years, these were the methods used to secure papers.
37. In 1835, a machine that could mass-produce straight pins was invented by Howe J. L. , an American inventor. Although straight pins (大头针)were originally designed for sewing and tailoring, people began using them as a quick and easy way to secure papers. 38. In 1899 he patented the device, which consisted of a wire bent into a particularly shaped hoop for the purpose of securing papers.
During this time, however, the paperclip (回形针)was not a widely distributed device. Therefore, the Gem Manufacturing Company of England developed a machine to manufacture and standardize the paperclip design. 39.
Today the paperclip is a famous invention used throughout offices, schoolrooms, and business throughout the world. 40.
A. The next paper invention was that of the straight pin.
B. Before the paper clip, people had to be creative to keep paper together.
C. The humble item only came into popular usage around the mid-19th century.
D. Later, inspired by the straight pin, Norwegian Vaaler J. came up with the idea of the first paperclip.
E. This manufacturing development allowed for the expansion of the modern paperclip worldwide.
F. Being a wonder of simplicity and function, the paperclip remains a standard office supply throughout the world.
G. Therefore, from the early 13th century people had created various methods to ensure documents were kept together.

Alex rode his bike on his way home, and Johnson's Pond came into view.
Sometimes his dad took him canoeing(划独木舟) there, and Alex loved it. The pond was always alive with activity, and sometimes Alex discovered turtles(乌龟) sunbathing on suing rocks Alex as curious about turtles. When it was too rainy to go canoeing, he often went to the library to check out books on turtles,
Now it looked like tomorrow might be another sunny day. He decided to ask Dad if they could go canoeing and look for turtles again. Suddenly Alex saw something in the road up ahead. It looked like a big gray rock. But it was a funny place for a rock to be. He jumped off to have a look.
And then, the rock started to move! It was actually a large turtle slowly making its way across the road! Alex knew right away it was a snapping turtle.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a car approaching The turtle was still only halfway across the road Alex knew he couldn't pick it up because snapping turtles have a powerful bite and they could even bite off someone's finger! What could he do
Thinking fast, he started waving both hands wildly. "Stop! Stop!" he cried. The car slowed to a stop.
"Are you alight, Alex " It was his neighbor, Mrs. Ramos.
"I'm fine, Mrs. Ram's." said Alex. "I'm just trying to save a turtle. It's probably going to lay egg."
"Oh, yeah. It's spring." said Mrs. Ram's. "So, I guess a lot of turtles need to lay their eggs in the grass across the road." Then she waved goodbye and drove off.
Alex thought about what Mrs. Ram's had said. "There would probably be more turtles trying to cross the road at this spot!" he realized. But he couldn't stand there all day trying to stop cars. He looked around and a road sign caught his eye. And then his face brightened.
Para1 He jumped on his bike and raced home to find Dad.
