21、When storm clouds gather, and the wind howls in anger, the natural reaction for most people is to seek shelter. But some run toward the danger. Photographer Liu Yijing is one of that rare type as he captures nature’s violence.
For the past year, Liu, 21, has traveled about 24,000 kilometers across 11 provinces chasing and recording thunderstorms. From the first signs—a stronger breeze developing into a turbulent (汹涌的) sky and birds fleeing—he prepares for what appears to be a frightening task. In 2021, he took more than 48,000 photos, showing the most violence of Mother Nature.
Liu has received a great deal of recognition for his work. His photos captured a complete supercell (雷暴) structure that occurred in the Inner Mongolia autonomous region on Aug 22. This image has been picked as the cover photo for the Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, a key publication in its field.
“It is a typical supercell and I still have a vivid memory about how thrilled I felt the moment it formed. While recording, I couldn’t control myself and kept screaming,” he says, adding that the picture and video have spread rapidly on the Internet. The term supercell is even used by meteorologists (气象学家) to describe a type of a lasting thunderstorm that rotates and is usually accompanied by dangerous weather conditions including damaging winds and sometimes tornadoes.
Many social media users nicknamed him “storm chaser”. A Sina Weibo user named Guanwaidelin comments that Liu’s photos and videos show how amazing and powerful nature is and how insignificant humans are. Another called Lucia Wei says that before Liu, storm-chasing photographers were rarely heard of in China and that it is a career for those who are not only brave but also armed with sufficient meteorological knowledge.
【1】How does Liu Yijing respond to the approaching storm?
A．He expresses anger.
B．He looks for shelter.
C．He takes photos of it.
D．He runs away from it.
【2】What can we learn about Liu Yijing from the text?
A．He traveled across the world to record tornadoes.
B．He was acknowledged for an image of a supercell.
C．He felt thrilled when his works became a hit.
D．He described the supercell as a great discovery.
【3】Which of the following best describes Liu Yijing’s job?
A．Boring.
B．Well-paid.
C．Adventurous.
D．Discouraging.
【4】What is the text mainly about?
A．A supercell going around.
B．A storm showing power.
C．A career exploring space.
D．A cameraman chasing storm.
22、Club Activities in Japanese Schools
In the after-class activities of Japanese high schools, there are various clubs. Participation depends on students; however, most students choose a certain club. 【1】 And there are various kinds within each type.
A recent survey showed activity participation rate (比率). In junior high schools, participation rate was around 70% in sports clubs and around 20% in culture clubs. In senior high schools, participation rate in sports clubs dropped to about 50%, and in culture clubs, rose to around 25%. One reason is that there are more kinds of culture clubs in senior high schools than in junior high schools, so there is a wider range of choices. 【2】
The rate of junior high school students not choosing any club was less than 10%. However, that number more than doubled in senior high school. In recent years, the number of students not joining in any clubs is increasing. Stronger individualism, which causes unwillingness to participate in group activities, is one factor behind this change.
【3】 Japanese clubs are considered “a part of education” and are different from club activities overseas. Learning teamwork is a common factor; in particular, sports clubs have a strict hierarchy (等级制度) and are useful in leaning to be polite. This is said to have influenced the way Japanese companies work, for example, with respect for seniors. Compared to sports clubs, the hierarchy in culture clubs is not as strict. 【4】 Besides, clubs which practice traditional Japanese martial arts and culture offer a valuable chance to learn the traditional arts firsthand. By experiencing such arts in teenage years, the chance of passing traditional culture to the next generation is large.
A．Clubs are generally divided into two types — sports clubs and culture clubs.
B．Each sports club has a teacher, but the key is placed on student independence.
C．They are places where like-minded students can improve their creativity together.
D．Culture clubs in senior high schools tend to include traditional culture activities, such as tea ceremony.
E．It is also pointed out that culture clubs offer a more casual environment than sports clubs that require long and hard practice.
F．Actually, there are many advantages of participating in club activities in Japan.
23、 After hours of delays, one New York-bound passenger thought that he was getting the private plane treatment when he boarded his flight and realized he was the only passenger.
The passenger, a Brooklyn-based man named Chris O’Leary, started talking about his amazement before the plane took off. “It was definitely the most memorable flight I’ve been on in recent memory. There were no screaming babies, or reclining(使后仰) their seats.”
Although it seemed like he was getting to fly home alone, the plane ended up going back to the gate one to pick up a second passenger. “He took advantage of the fact that the flight was empty and reclined his seat all the way and slept,” O’Leary said of the second passenger.
It isn’t clear how many people were originally scheduled to be on board the 76-seater regional plane, but according to O’Leary, he was the only who was not rebooked on an earlier flight after they faced a number of delays. O’Leary was actually scheduled on a 7:15 a.m. flight out of Cleveland but when that flight got cancelled, he was re-booked on this flight, which was scheduled to take off at 9:39 a.m. The flight was delayed for hours, and since O’Leary learned of the delays by phone notices, he stayed in his hotel until shortly before the flight was actually due to take off. When he arrived at the airport, he heard his name being announced on the loud speaker and he was informed that everyone else had been rebooked on earlier flights because of the delay.
A Delta Airlines spokesman confirmed that there were two passengers on board. Often times when planes fly with a small number of passengers it’s because the plane itself is needed in the destination city for a later flight.
【1】How many passengers were there on board the plane to New York?
A．Only one.
B．Two.
C．Three.
D．Seventy-six.
【2】According to paragraph 2 and paragraph 3, we know that O’Leary ________.
A．enjoyed the flight very much
B．missed the 9:39 a.m. flight
C．didn’t get exact notices in time
D．boarded his booked flight
【3】We can infer from the passage that ________.
A．a private plane sent O’Leary back home
B．O’Leary booked a flight at 7:15 a.m at first
C．76 people were at first planned to be on board
D．The flight O’Leary was on took off at 9:39 a.m
【4】The plane with few passengers still took off because ________.
A．the passenger O’Leary was very poor
B．it would take place of another plane in the destination city
C．hours of delays was common for a flight
D．many people in the destination city were waiting for it
24、The moment I entered the Samcheong Park Library in Seoul, I saw the future. The simple building had a nice selection of books and a cafe where readers could enjoy coffee while gazing at the leaves outside. It was specifically designed without any latest technology.
“What's so innovative about that?” a librarian in Toronto asked when I showed her pictures. Innovation to her meant digital technology, like 3D printers. “Why couldn't they both be innovative?” I asked.
We are constantly told that innovation is the most important force in our economy, without which we would be left behind. But that fear of missing out has led us to fall into the false trappings of innovation over truly innovative ideas that may be simpler and more effective. This mindset implies that if you just buy the new thing, you have innovated! Each year, businesses and individuals run around like broken toy robots, trying to figure out their strategy for the latest buzzword equipment.
At best, this is a waste of resource. Devices are bought, used and abandoned, as the technology's capabilities fall short of its promise. But at its worst, this approach can truly cause damage. Schools cut field trips to purchase tablets with few proven benefits. Companies that applied A. I. into hiring have strengthened gender and racial prejudices.
True innovation isn't just some magic devices. It is a continuing process of reflection and reassessment, which often means adopting “old" ideas and tools in a new context, or even returning to methods that worked in the past. Adjusted properly, these rearview innovations have proved as transformative as novel technologies.
Look no farther than the streets of New York, which have been redesigned recently to accommodate cyclists with car-free zones. The idea isn't new. It was created half a century ago, with the aim of bringing cities back to their residents. And while e-reader sales have been exploding, Penguin just announced it would publish tiny printed books, an ideal solution for a market demanding both convenience and physicality.
【1】Why is a librarian mentioned?
A．To set an example.
B．To cite an authority.
C．To present an argument.
D．To make a prediction.
【2】What does the underlined “buzzword” mean in Para. 3?
A．Affordable.
B．Fashionable.
C．Practical.
D．Imaginative.
【3】What does the writer agree with about innovation?
A．Wasted resources lead to innovation.
B．Magic devices encourage innovation.
C．The power of technology is undervalued.
D．Innovation should be human-centered.
