21、The name might sound like that of a superhero, but Pooperman’s task is much more basic.
He, or she, is trying to shame the irresponsible dog owners of Lincoln into cleaning up behind their pets.
Pooperman sticks notes into dog waste that owners have failed to clean up, warning them not to do it again. The typed notes read, "Don’t leave it. You might be the one who steps in it the next time you walk this way."
While welcoming the purpose of the message, local government officers have rounded on Pooperman for producing even more rubbish.
They say they would prefer it if people told them when there was a problem rather than adding to the rubbish problem. The city of Lincoln government’s environmental officer, Tony Garner, said, "The public can help instead by observing dog owners to make sure they clean up after their pets, perhaps asking them to remove the waste if they try to leave it."
"If this doesn’t work we can take action — people can tell us who the owner is, give us a description of the owner and the dog, or simply tell us when and where they allow their dog to produce the waste."
"We can then focus our patrols(巡逻) and take action against irresponsible owners."
Sue Grace, a dog owner from Birchwood, Lincs, said, "I always clean up after my dog. It’s very irresponsible if you don’t."
"There’s nothing worse than stepping in dog waste or dragging your long lead through it, but I don’t know that putting notes on it is the answer."
"It’s good that the local government is fighting against dog waste, though it might take one or two prosecutions(起诉) to make any difference."
【1】What does Pooperman try to do?
A.To have irresponsible dog owners remove dog waste.
B.To advise the local government to protect the environment.

23、 China has entered the cinematic space race. The Wandering Earth, the country’s first blockbuster sci-fi, is on track to be one of the most successful films in China’s history.
Set in the distant future, the governments of the Earth, faced with destruction from an unstable sun, have strapped thrusters (助推器) onto the planet, carrying it out into the universe in search of a new home. But as the Earth approaches the Jupiter, something goes wrong in the system puts it on course to crash into the planet. Therefore, countless people have come forward to face the challenge and save the Earth.
The film is seen by some as the dawn of Chinese sci-fi—a field that has long been dominated by Hollywood.
China is already home to a thriving science and speculative fiction literary scene.

The main difference between Chinese and US audience is trust. “Building trust between producers investors and the audience is the biggest challenge here. Not so many people have faith in a Chinese sci-fi movie.” said Liu. the author of the novel.
Some noted that unlike many Chinese blockbusters, The Wandering earth dials back on the patriotism. Rescue teams from around the world scramble to get the thrusters back up and running. A Russian soldier sacrifices his life to help a Chinese colleague.
“This is not a patriotic film but a film about humans saving themselves,” one reviewer said.

B. There is not enough money to put into sci-fi films.
C. Chinese movie-goers lack faith in home-made sci-fi films.
D. Chinese sci-fi films don’t have a good atmosphere for creation.
【4】Why does the author mention a Russian soldier’s sacrifice in the film?
A. To add more vivid and moving details to the film.
B. To compare the film with Chinese traditional films.
C. To arouse the readers’ interest in watching the film.

26、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。
Back in 2008, I lost my job and lived in my car with my wife and two teenage children. I was desperate for a new job, any job, so when I saw an ad for a position as a gatekeeper at a private home, I applied. The money wasn’t great, but the position came with a small one-bedroom apartment to get my family off the streets. And I had to pay debts with over 40% of my small salary every month. My wife and I agreed that whatever food we could afford to buy would go to the children. And whatever were leftovers were our meal, and sometimes there wasn’t much at all.
My boss was a man in his sixties, who showed his employees apparent haughtiness(傲慢), never responding when I greeted him when I opened the gates. But I wouldn’t quit the job, though. My job consisted of standing watch, opening and closing the gates, and patrolling(巡逻)the grounds.
One afternoon, my rounds brought me around the back where the leftovers were thrown into the garbage bins, most of which stayed untouched. I was so hungry, so I went looking for leftovers in the bins and took them to my wife. Regardless of desperation and shame, I kept doing that almost every day.
Then one day, my boss watched me look for leftovers from a window. Ignoring the embarrassment, I walked away with the food.
The next morning, we were surprised by a large bag on our doorstep. Inside the bag were vegetables, milk, meat and a selection of fruit. We wondered who could have placed it there. My wife and I wept with gratitude. The next week, another bag of groceries arrived on our doorstep. And it appeared the next two years.
Then a shock hit us. The boss, who’d been in hospital for some kind of operation, was dead. I was frightened I’d lose my job, but everything went on as usual.
