I once thought that outward beauty was the only factor to become a great person. When I was young, I read many kinds of books, most of which described characters who are handsome or beautiful. So I thought that being beautiful was the only way to become a success.
As I grew up, the story of my best friend made me realize that outward beauty was not so important to make a person successful. She was so beautiful a girl that every classmate liked to chat with her, but she was very arrogant. In her opinion, she could get all she wanted because of her beauty, but all of her friends left her one by one! Only then did she come to know the importance of the beauty in a person’s heart, which changed her attitude and she made friends again.
Turning on TV, we can see many advertisements, most of which seem to give us a feeling that physical attractiveness is the most important thing. There seems to be a boom in plastic surgery. It is surprising that more and more people, especially girls and women, try it like the first man-made beauty in China, Hao Lulu. It is a common sense that attractive people can easily find work. Most good-looking guys usually get higher scores in the job interviews. But what is real beauty I want to say that is inner beauty because those who have beauty in their soul are really beautiful persons.
As is known, the beauty judged with eyes is temporary, so we should concentrate on inner beauty. And if we make the efforts to make our minds beautiful, we’ll live a happier life.
24.What did the author learn from her friend’s story
A.It is terrible to be a beautiful girl.
B.It is not easy to make friends with beautiful girls.
C.Outer beauty is not so important to become a successful person.
D.Inner beauty is the most important to become a successful person.
25.What does the underlined word “arrogant” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A.self-important B.successful C.beautiful D.excellent
26.What is the author’s attitude to plastic surgery
A.Positive. B.Negative. C.Indifferent. D.Unclear.
27.What is the text mainly about
A.Inner beauty is the real beauty.
B.How do attractive persons become successful
C.The key factor to find a good job is being attractive.
D.Plastic surgery is the best way to make a person more beautiful.
C
Pilates (普拉提), yoga and the running machine get all the attention when it comes to popular ways to keep fit. There is, however, a more humble exercise that might not be so attractive, but has all the benefits—walking.
Certified fitness professional Jolynn Jaekel explains, "What I love about walking is that anyone can do it at any age and any fitness level. Plus it is good for your heart, your head and your wallet.”
A recent report detailed the health benefits of walking. The report found that walking regularly to fulfill (执行,履行) the 150 minutes of moderate (适度的) physical exercise every week, recommended by the UK's chief medical officer, could save 37, 000 lives each year.
Scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California found that quick walking reduced the risk of heart disease more effectively than running. They observed participants aged between 18 and 80 over a six-year period and found that walking reduced the risk of heart disease by 9.3%, while running reduced it by 4. 5%. And there is even more good news: 30 minutes of quick walking over five days could help you sleep easily, according to research by Oregon State University. The study by the university showed that walking helped participants sleep better and feel more alert during the day.
The sooner you get started, the sooner you'll notice the differences in your mind and body. So, go out for your 30-minute walk in a nearby park or green space.
28.What does the underlined word "humble" probably mean in the first paragraph
A.relaxing B.plain
C.popular D.active
29.What does Jolynn Jaekel think of walking
A.It's loved by people of all ages.
B.It's much healthier than running.
C.It's becoming more and more popular.
D.It's a money-saving physical exercise.
30.What did scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory find
A.Walking helps people with sleep problems.
B.Walking contributes to curing heart disease.
C.Walking is better than running in some cases.
D.Walking 150 minutes per week can save lives.
31.In which section of a newspaper can we read this text
A.Lifestyle B.Comment
C.Education D.Science
D
For those of us who grew up watching Star Trek, exploring space has been about discovering strange new worlds. And there are plenty of worlds to explore in time, but we still need major technological advancements to reach planets that are light years away.
What we are doing in space today is providing unbelievable benefits right now, right here on Earth. From space, we can monitor, manage and care for our planet. Satellite-based sensors show us the short- and long-term effects of human activity on our environment. Many companies are using their interest in space to help solve problems here, from using hyperspectral imaging(高光谱成像), which enable us to map vegetation(植被) and rain forests, to microsatellites that provide global connectivity for the network of things.
My company, OneWeb, is focusing on what I believe is one of the world’s most important issues: the need for equal access to the Internet. The Internet has become our economic lifeblood. And yet, nearly half of the world’s population doesn’t have Internet access. Space is playing a key role in bridging this digital divide. OneWeb is launching 1,980 satellites to help bring Internet access to people everywhere, and our first production satellites are already flying in space and have shown very high download speeds.
Fiber and cable Internet access technologies already cover most financially viable(可行的) major cities. Similarly, these regions will also be the first to be served with 5G. Poor communities are the last to get connected, and without connectivity, those communities have no chance to lift themselves from poverty. OneWeb’s satellites will reach every community in the world and enable equal access to the Internet for the world’s less developed places.
Fifty years from the day when man first walked on the moon, we are still only approaching the possible. There will be tens of thousands of new satellites, space stations and factories in the coming years to bring advancements in communications, scientific research, monitoring the earth, exploring space and more. This is exciting, but we must take action carefully.
32.What is the second paragraph mainly about
A.Benefits space exploration can bring to us.
B.Problems space exploration leads to.
C.Steps of space exploration requires.
D.Equipment space exploration needs.
33.What is OneWeb aiming to do
A.Increase download speeds.
B.Narrow the gap in Internet learning.
C.Help people set up and maintain a website.
D.Enable people to make use of the Internet equally.
34.What can be inferred from the text
A.More than six decades ago, man first walked on the moon.
B.More than half of the world’s people have no access to the Internet.
C.OneWeb’s satellites will make it possible for most people to be served with 5G.
D.Without the Internet, poor communities can hardly help themselves out of poverty.
35.What will the writer probably continue to write about in the following paragraph
A.The risks of furthering space exploration.
B.The value of setting up space stations.
C.The way we could monitor our earth.
D.The features of microsatellites.

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。
Kindness of Strangers
We rely on a community where helping others is highly appreciated. When we need help, it creates a web that ties us together.
Once upon a time, I was in the kitchen getting dinner ready when my fourteen-year-old daughter, Cassandra, called me from her room. “Mom, can you help me get downstairs ” She had lung disease and depended on oxygen twenty-four hours a day, so it was impossible for her to move up and down the stairs without help. I turned down the stove and ran upstairs to her room. Cassandra let out a sigh and closed her eyes. “Mom, I wish it wasn’t so hard for me to climb the stairs.”
“I know, honey. We’ll try to solve the problem.”
My daughter’s words reminded me of an incident. A month earlier, a company introduced an electric stairlift (座椅电梯) to us. My daughter could use this stairlift to go up and down stairs by herself without anyone helping her. Hearing the perfect product, our whole family was very excited and looking forward to it. The stairlift sounded wonderful because it would greatly improve my daughter’s life. Unluckily, we couldn’t afford it although John, my husband, even took two jobs to support the family.
To meet Cassandra’s wish, I got round to ask the charity organization in our community for help once again. They had lent us a wheelchair before we bought one. Maybe they could help with a stairlift, too. I held my breath while the phone rang. “Do you have a stairlift I could borrow ” I asked them hopefully. However, they hadn’t, but they promised to call us right away if they got one.

1.续写词数150左右;

读后续写:
Hanging up the phone, I told this to my family anxiously. Hearing what I said, my daughter could not hide her upset. And then she let out a sigh deeply and squeezed a smile. Looking at my daughter, I patted her head and said, ”Things are going to be fine, honey. The community will help us find a stairlift. All we can do is wait. If they don’t find one, we’ll work hard and save up to buy you one. Hearing this my daughter’s eyes filled with hope again, and said gently “Thank you, Mom.”
Paragraph Two:
One early morning, we heard someone knocking at the door. I opened the door and found a couple of community staff standing there, wearing a smile on their face. We greeted each other and the community workers said they had found a stairlift, which was donated by the previous company. Tears glistening in my eyes, I was so grateful to those who gave us a hand when we were in trouble. My daughter was overflowing with happiness after hearing this. At the moment, we realized it’s kindness that makes the world go on, particularly from strangers.
