21、 Since early February, 218 people have been removed and taken to hospitals after testing positive for the novel coronavirus. Many remain quarantined on the ship, which originally set sail on Jan. 20th with 2,666 passengers and 1045 crew. Because they've been confined to their rooms for over 11 days, passengers feel almost as though they are on the ship alone.
But Friday is Valentine's Day, the holiday of love. It is not a day many people want to spend in isolation. Luckily, it seems Cupid's arrow is far-reaching. The captain and crew did a few things to try to lift passengers’ spirits on Valentine's Day. “I'd like to read you a poem: Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends,” said the captain through the loudspeaker.
Besides, guests were offered special selections for dinner and lunch. Breakfast included a chocolate croissant, decorated red for the holiday. Smith, a passenger on Diamond Princess, also tweeted a photo of other delicious treats provided by Princess Cruise, including a rose and dark chocolate. Yardley Wong, a passenger, who has been tweeting updates throughout the quarantine, shared an image of the menu provided by Diamond Princess’s crew ahead of the Valentine's Day.
Passengers also created Valentine’s messages for the crew. Dan Ponce, a television anchor from Chicago, posted on Twitter that his mother-in-law was quarantined on the ship and created Valentine’s messages for the crew, which she taped on her cabin door.
“My mother-in-law Linda is among the passengers quarantined on the Diamond Princess cruise ship in Japan,” he wrote. “Today she used manicure scissors to make valentines for the crew. So thoughtful!”
“Thank you for taking care of us,” one of the hearts read.
As the quarantine continues with more new cases confirmed, passengers are becoming more and more anxious. “But I believe love can help us conquer all things,” said one of the passengers on the ship.

22、Heat, cold and touch are crucial for experiencing the world around us and for our own survival. But how our bodies actually do it had been one of the great mysteries (神秘) of biology. Scientists who discovered how our bodies feel the warmth of the sun or the hug of a loved one have won the Nobel Prize.
David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian, from the US, share the 2021 prize in Medicine or Physiology for their work on sensing touch and temperature. They explored how our bodies convert physical sensations into electrical messages in the nervous system. Their findings could lead to new ways of treating pain.
Thomas Perlman, from the Nobel Prize Committee, said: “It was a very important and profound discovery.” Prof David Julius’s breakthrough, at the University of Calfornia, San Francisco, came from investigating the burning pain we feel from eating a hot chilli pepper (辣椒) . He experimented with the source of a chilli’s heat and discovered the specific type of receptor (感觉器官) that responded to it. Further tests showed the receptor was responding to heat and kicked in at “painful“ temperatures. This is what happens, for example，if you you’re your hand on a cup of coffee.
This led to a senses of other temperature sensors being discovered. Prof Julius and Prof Ardem Palapoutian found one that could detect cold. Meanwhile, Prof Patapoutian, working at the Scrips Research institute, was also analyzing cells in a dish. Those experiments led to the discovery of a different type of receptor that a was activated (激活)in response to mechanical force or touch. When you walk along a beach and feel the sand under your feet-it is these receptors that are sending signals to the brain.
The first heat sensor is also involved’ in lasting pain and how our body regulates its core temperature. The touch receptor has multiple roles, from urinating to blood pressure. The Prize Committee said their work had “allowed us to understand how heat, cold and mechanical force can initiate the nerve impulses (刺激) that allow us to perceive and adapt to the world around us.
【1】What made David and Ardem win the Nobel Prize?
A．Mysterious experiences
B．Biological discoveries.
C．Exploration of sun heat.
D．Survival in high temperature.
【2】What does the underlined word “convert” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A．Translate.
B．Persuade.
C．Change.
D．Lead.
【3】Which contributed to the discovery of different temperature sensors?
A．Burning hands on a coffee cup.
B．The chilli pepper experiment.
C．Raising painful temperatures.
D．The analysis of cells in a dish.
【4】What could the discovery be applied to?
A．Testing blood pressure.
B．Promoting beach tourism.
C．Perceiving coffee color.
D．Treating some diseases.
23、Studies show that reading for pleasure makes a big difference to children’s educational performance. Evidence suggests that children who read for enjoyment every day not only perform better in reading tests than those who don’t, but also develop a broader vocabulary, increased general knowledge and a better understanding of other cultures.
In fact, reading for pleasure is more likely to determine whether a child does well at school than their social or economic background.
Parents are the most important educators in a child’s life-even more important than their teachers-and it’s never too early to start reading together. Even before they’re bon, babies learn to recognize their parents’ voices. Reading to your baby from birth, even for just a few minutes a day, gives them the comfort of hearing your voice and increases their communication with language.
Learning to read is about listening and understanding as well as working out what’s printed on the page. Through hearing stories, children are in a wide range of words. This helps them build their own vocabulary, which is important as they start to read. It’s important for them to understand how stories work too. Even if your child doesn’t understand every word, they’ll hear new sounds, words and phrases which they can then try out, copying what they have heard.
As children start to learn to read at school, you can play an important role in helping to keep them interested in books. Find out what interests them, help them to find books that will be fun, and spend time reading the books they bring home from school together.
【1】What will reading do to children？
A．Make them stronger.
B．Waste their time and energy.
C．Ensure their health.
D．Improve their performance at school.
【2】Why is listening to stories important for children？
A．It attracts their interest.
B．It improves their understanding.
C．It enlarges their vocabulary.
D．It helps tests what they learned.
【3】How can parents help children who start learning to read？
A．Find their interest.
B．Work out with them.
C．Buy more books for them.
D．Keep their interest in reading.
【4】What is the text？
A．A travel guide.
B．A short story
C．A research article.
D．A book introduction.

26、Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main points of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
The United States government list of endangered species includes alligators, tigers, grizzly bears, some kinds of whales, and over three dozen species of butterflies. What has led to the scarcity of these animals, which may become extinct without vital protection?
One important factor is that many animals have been widely hunted and killed for food and for their beautiful skins. In accordance with the Endangered Species Act, it is illegal in the United States to hunt, sell, or collect endangered species. Thus, an expensive fur coat made from a tiger killed in Asia cannot be legally sold to a wealthy matron in New York or San Francisco.
Some predators, which kill useful, more common animals, are threatened by farmers who are concerned that predators will carry off chickens and young sheep, and because of this fear they trapped and killed them.
The butterfly is an accidental victim of man’s effort to control his environment, For a long time collectors have searched for unusual specimens for their colorful butterfly collections; now, there is an additional, more Serious threat—widespread use of dangerous pesticides which farmers apply to their crops to control harmful insects.
With various animals being killed for food, for decoration, and for the protection of domesticated animals, or dying because of unfortunate contact with human environments, it is not surprising that some are becoming scarce, that the number of species on the endangered list is growing every year. Man is discovering that his world includes the other animals in it, and one can only hope his discovery is not coming too slowly or too late.
