26、Many people living in extremely low-income areas don’t have access to the materials they need to make even the most basic home improvements. Most, including Tessa Vierk’s and Jim Benton’s friends, can’t afford to buy pricey tools themselves, nor can they afford to hire someone else to repair their homes. That’s where the Chicago Tool Library comes in!
Tessa and Jim set up the library that accepts tool donations in 2019. It functions exactly like a regular library, except instead of books, people can borrow tools they need for home repairs, woodworking, gardening, cooking, camping, and more. People sign up for a library card, and there’s a pay-what-you-can annual fee with no standard or minimum payments. Members can borrow as many tools as they can carry for seven days, and renew(续借) them if they want to. When the library first started, Tessa and Jim had about 150 members. They now have over 1,500 members from all over the Chicago area and more than 2,500 tools to choose from.
Now, in fact, they’ve had to turn down tool donations. They’re searching for a larger building to hold “twice as many tools”. “Probably 90 percent of the tools we have have been donated,” Tessa said. “A lot of people own too many high-quality things, and they would give them to us so that we don’t have the space to accept.”
“While it’s quiet around the library, it’s far from the city, which is hard for young people who are working to get our services. We are planning to relocate to a larger location with a better public transport network to make our offerings, including more tools, and lots of other wonderful services, available to even more people,” they wrote on their website.
【1】What made Tessa and Jim start the Chicago Tool Library?
A．Their love for reading books.
B．Their friends’ encouragement.
C．Their interest in decorating.
D．Their desire to help the poor.
【2】Which word best describes the Chicago Tool Library?
A．Academic.
B．Popular.
C．Costly.
D．Demanding.
【3】Why do Tessa and Jim turn down tool donations?
A．They have had enough tools.
B．The tools are of poor quality.
C．Their storage space is limited.
D．They want to buy tools themselves.
【4】What can be inferred about the present location of the library?
A．It’s not easily accessible.
B．It’s close to the community.
C．It’s too noisy and crowded.
D．It’s favorable for the young.
27、In October, 2019, Beijing Daily warned the youth that they shouldn't let Internet slang （俚语） deepen the generation gap（代沟），after People Daily started a discussion on Chinese microblog Weibo on how to "explain" the youth's Internet slang terms to parents. The post got 40,000 likes. People were commenting that they couldn't keep up with the rapidly developing Internet lingo （术语）in China.
People also fear that Chinese Internet slang will negatively influence broader linguistic （语言的） trends of Mandarin Chinese, in particular, the gradual taking over of pinyin, the romanization of traditional Chinese characters using the Western alphabet. As pinyin gets widely used when people text or write on mobile phones or computers, while less and less people write characters by hand, people gradually forget how to write them, which is called "character amnesia" in China.
2019’s latest slang terms add a further simplification: the use of pinyin acronyms. "Awsl" in pinyin, for instance, means Ah, wo si le (Oh, I'm gonna die), and is used if something is too cute or adorable. "Nsdd" stands for ni shuo de dui (you're right).
Certainly, as an age-old written language, Chinese has been evolving and developing over the years. But the Chinese Internet lingo is unlikely to replace the existing use of Mandarin Chinese, but will rather be enriching it by adding another layer.
Acronyms aren't new. They have appeared with the limited space available in early-generation cell phone messaging. Some of them have become a part of the English language, such as BTW (by the way) and LOL (laugh out loud), while others had a rather short lifetime. That's likely to be what's going to happen with China's Internet slang terms. Some are going to be old in a few weeks, while others might make it into mainstream use, and as they do, young net users are coming up with new slang words to differentiate themselves.
In China, using Internet slang means belonging to a certain generation that likes to watch the same talk shows, play the same games, etc., and therefore, creates unity. Older generations don't have to feel left out, and certainly don't have to fear a degradation (没落)of the Chinese language. While language development is unavoidable, Internet slang is not going to let 6,000 years of Chinese written language completely change overnight.
【1】The public are worried about Chinese Internet slang abuse because
A．It's used by children to keep secrets from parents.
B．It can cause confusion even among young people.
C．It was invented in response to the limited messaging space.
D．It will rarely have a positive effect on linguistic trends of Chinese.
【2】How do Chinese Internet slang terms affect the Chinese language?
A．They add variety to the language.
B．They are replacing its traditional vocabulary.
C．They make the language more global.
D．They only have temporary effects on Chinese.
【3】By using Internet slang in China, people may get.
A．a sense of purpose
B．a sense of group identity
C．a sense of cultural pride
D．a sense of safety
【4】Which could be the best title for the passage?
A．Is Media Helping Older Generation Understand Internet Slang?
B．Is Chinese Language Too Powerful to Be Largely Affected?
C．Is Mandarin Chinese Useful to Bridge the Generation Gap?
D．Is Internet Slang Deepening the Generation Gap, Ruining Chinese?
28、Fancy Dress High School
Many American schools don’t have a dress code (规范). Sometimes students can dress in the wildest ways you could imagine!
I noticed this during my first term as an exchange student at Macon High School in Missouri. One day, I saw all the students at my school were dressed up in strange clothing. The girls were wearing bright-colored shirts and mini-skirts. The boys were wearing old-fashioned black suits. Later my friends told me that they were dressed up in the fashion of the 1900s.
“But why?” I asked, surprised.
“Because it’s the homecoming week, a time when former (以前的) students of the school come back and meet each other again. There are parties and sports events. The school encourages us to wear 1900s clothes on Monday, pajamas (睡衣) on Tuesday, orange clothes on Wednesday, clothes inside out on Thursday, and socks that do not match on the last day! Sounds like fun, doesn’t it?”
I’d never imagined students wearing anything so crazy at school before. The next day, I plucked up (鼓起) my courage and went to school in blue pajamas. There was no embarrassment (尴尬) since everyone was in pajamas, even the teachers! It excited us when we noticed that Mr. Lewis, our American history teacher, who always has a straight face and never makes jokes, was wearing pajamas too! It made class that day such a lot of fun.
The rest of the week was also amazing. But I realized that homecoming week was not just about fun, but a chance to be creative and try out new things.

29、A librarian in Indonesia’s Java island started a project — lending books to children in exchange for trash they collect in a novel way — to clean up the planet and help improve kids’ literacy (识字能力).
Each weekday Raden Roro Hendarti rides her three wheeler with books piled up at the back for children in Muntang village to exchange for plastic cups, bags and other waste that she carries back. She told Reuters she is helping kids get into the habit of reading as well as making them aware of the environment. As soon as she shows up, little children, many accompanied by their mothers, surround her “Trash Library” and choose the books noisily. They are all carrying trash bags and Raden's three wheeler quickly fills up with them as the books fly out.
She’s happy the kids are going to spend less time on online games as a result. “Let us build a culture of literacy from young age to mitigate the harm of the online world,” Raden said. “We should also take care of our waste in order to fight climate change and to save the earth from trash,” Raden said.
She collects about 100 kg of waste each week, which is then sorted out by her colleagues and sent for recycling or sold. She has a stock of 6,000 books to lend and wants to take the mobile service to neighbouring areas as well. Kevin Alamsyah, an 11-year-old reader, searches for waste lying in the village. “When there is too much trash, our environment will become dirty and it’s not healthy. That’s why I look for trash to borrow a book,” he says.
The literacy rate for above-15-year-olds in Indonesia is around 96 percent, but a September report by the World Bank warned that the Covid-19 will leave more than 80% of 15-year-olds below the lowest reading level recognized by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development.
【1】Why did the librarian start the activity?
A．To make kids spend less time on online games.
B．To bring in a new way of lending books to children.
C．To get kids interested in reading books and collecting trash.
D．To encourage kids to protect the environment and read more.
【2】Which of the following best explains the underlined word “mitigate” in paragraph 3?
A．Reduce.
B．Add.
C．Remove.
D．Strengthen.
【3】What can be inferred from the text?
A．Few kids are attracted to the online games after the project.
B．Kevin Alamsyah finds it challenging to protect the environment.
C．There is a long way to go to increase the literacy rate in Indonesia.
D．The mobile service has already been taken to the neighboring areas.
【4】Which section of a magazine might the text be taken from?
A．Business.
B．Environment.
C．Health.
D．Politics.

32、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
The sound of glass breaking is instantly recognizable. I’d been telling my best friend Missi a silly story and had spun (转) around in the living room when I heard that sound and froze.
When I looked down at the carpet, it was covered with pieces of sparkling red, pink and clear glass. Missi said. ”Oh, no, not the vase.”
“Why? What did I do?” My face reddened.
“Abby, that glass vase was one of the few items my relatives brought when they came to America,” Missi replied nervously. “If you’d broken anything else in the apartment, I would have gladly said I did it. But you’re going to have to tell my mom that it was your fault, and she’s going to be really mad.“
I was terrified. I’d destroyed a priceless family heirloom (传家宝). Why did I have to spin around like that?
We gathered up the shattered pieces.I kept saying that maybe it could be fixed, but Missi said gently it didn’t look possible. I insisted we keep the pieces. The glass was so fragile (易碎), like a colorful light bulb had exploded. Some of it broke even more as we tried to sweep it up carefully.
Missi said her mom would be home by six. My stomach was in knots. Would her mom yell at me or punish me? Would she tell me I couldn’t stay in their apartment for the weekend? I couldn’t stop playing the fifteen seconds over in my mind, me spinning fast and the sound of glass crashing. The only thing I could think of to say was “I’m sorry.”
A couple of minutes after six we heard a key turn in the door. Her mom was home. Right from the start, we could see she was in a good mood. “Hello! It’s hot today. I want to treat you girls to that frozen yogurt I know you like, Let’s go!” her mom said. She pointed at the open door.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右。
