Are you someone who likes to be alone Now, think about the things that make you happy. Find a small place in your room, or any place in your home, where you can spend time with yourself. It can be a small corner next to your bed or a wall. It can be a poster of your favourite rock star or photos of your friends. You can also pick a guitar if you like to play instruments, or a few storybooks if you love reading. Some of you may like flowers, candles or pretty things. Decorate your area with your favourite things in any way you like. That is creativity! And if you do feel bored with this, you can change, add or remove something.

If you see a girl and a boy throwing two baby puffins (海鹦) off a cliff (悬崖) on the Westman Islands, you may not understand why they’re doing so. In fact, they are just trying to help save them.
Puffins are the most common birds on the Westman Islands in Iceland. Different from most sea birds, they are able to go under water to 60 meters deep to catch fish. Each spring, they lay eggs in holes on cliffs. 40 days later, they will fly back to the sea, leaving the young there. Baby puffins would spend about six weeks in the holes alone before they are ready to fly to the sea.
In the past, young puffins could easily find the sea with the help of the moonlight. But now, bright lights of the city often make them lose their way. Many of them end up flying into the town. However, it’s not an easy thing for young puffins to fly up and find food in the town, so they may lose their lives there.
That’s why people on the Westman Islands have decided to help those young puffins. In late summer, when young puffins leave their holes, local people often go out to look for the missing puffins at night. If they find one, they would pick it up and put it in a box. The next day, they would take it to the cliff and throw it off. In this way, young puffins can fly safely to their new home for the next few years.
The unusual tradition also helps make sure the puffins will be back to their holes another year.
A puffin lays one egg each year at most, so the help from the people on the Westman Islands is of great importance to the survival (生存) of puffins.
22．Why are the boy and the girl throwing the baby puffins off a cliff
A．To have fun. B．To hurt them. C．To take photos. D．To help them.
23．When do puffins lay eggs
A．In spring. B．In summer. C．In autumn. D．In winter.
24．What can we know from the passage
A．Puffins spend 40 days at sea every year.
B．Young puffins find it easy to live in the town.
C．Local people often take puffins home as pets.
D．The help from local people is important to puffins.
25．What’s the purpose of this passage
A．To teach teenagers how to feed puffins.
B．To introduce a special way to save puffins.
C．To help local people raise money for puffins.
D．To encourage readers to visit the Westman Islands.
【答案】22．D 23．A 24．D 25．B
【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了韦斯特曼群岛的人们试图拯救海鹦宝宝的行动。

If you see a girl and a boy throwing two baby puffins (海鹦) off a cliff (悬崖) on the Westman Islands, you may not understand why they’re doing so. In fact, they are just trying to help save them.
Puffins are the most common birds on the Westman Islands in Iceland. Different from most sea birds, they are able to go under water to 60 meters deep to catch fish. Each spring, they lay eggs in holes on cliffs. 40 days later, they will fly back to the sea, leaving the young there. Baby puffins would spend about six weeks in the holes alone before they are ready to fly to the sea.
In the past, young puffins could easily find the sea with the help of the moonlight. But now, bright lights of the city often make them lose their way. Many of them end up flying into the town. However, it’s not an easy thing for young puffins to fly up and find food in the town, so they may lose their lives there.
That’s why people on the Westman Islands have decided to help those young puffins. In late summer, when young puffins leave their holes, local people often go out to look for the missing puffins at night. If they find one, they would pick it up and put it in a box. The next day, they would take it to the cliff and throw it off. In this way, young puffins can fly safely to their new home for the next few years.
The unusual tradition also helps make sure the puffins will be back to their holes another year.
A puffin lays one egg each year at most, so the help from the people on the Westman Islands is of great importance to the survival (生存) of puffins.
22．Why are the boy and the girl throwing the baby puffins off a cliff
A．To have fun. B．To hurt them. C．To take photos. D．To help them.

C．Local people often take puffins home as pets.
D．The help from local people is important to puffins.

Xing Yifan and his parents were very excited when they knew that Xing had a chance to study at Beihang University with a score of 645. It would be a great challenge for most high school graduates(毕业生) to get such a high score, especially for the 18-year-old boy.
Xing was born in Jilin Province in 2003. His family were happy with his coming and did not notice anything wrong until he was three months old.
“When we took him for photos in the studio, the photographer told us our son wasn’t able to do the same things other kids of his age could. He advised us to take him to the hospital for a check,” said his father Xing Dacheng.
“Although we were psychologically (心理上地) prepared, we never imagined our son would grow up with such a condition. And the doctors told us there was no useful way of treatment,” Xing’s father said.
When relatives and friends heard the news, they advised the couple to have another baby. But Xing’s parents decided to pour all their love and care into their son.
“Yifan is an angel who came to our family. He might have broken wings, but we would never give him up,” the father said.
Xing Yifan got the highest score in his school for the senior high school entrance examination in 2018. To prepare for Gaokao, he studied even harder from the day he started at Jilin No. 1 Senior High School.
He seldom went to bed before midnight, especially in the third year. To avoid bringing trouble to others, he drank less water at school to lower (减少) his need to go to the toilet.
Unluckily, he got hurt several months ago, so he had to stay at home. After three months, he came back to school, and to his teachers’ surprise, he made great progress instead of falling behind his classmates.
“I felt inspired (鼓舞的) when I read the story of British physicist Stephen Hawking. I will continue to study hard at university, and I hope I can be someone like him, who changed the world with his knowledge.”
