Did you know that people who live in different parts of China have different habits and preferences?
For example, people from southern China prefer to eat vegetables, while people from north China like to eat meat. But what causes these differences?
According to a new study published in the journal Cell in October, gene variations might be responsible for these differences, Xinhua reported.
In the study, researchers from Chinese genome-sequencing (基因组测序) firm BGI collected genetic information from 141,431 Chinese women. The women came from 31 provinces and comprised 36 ethnic minority groups.
The researchers found that there are six gene frequencies that are different among people from both northern and southern China. They found that natural selection has played an important role in the ways that people living in different regions of China have evolved, affecting their food preferences, immunities to illness and physical traits, the New York Times reported.
The researchers reported that a variation of the gene FADS2 is more commonly found in northern people than it is in southern people. It helps people metabolize (新陈代谢) fatty acids (脂肪酸), which suggests a diet that is rich in meat. According to Xinhua, this is due to climate differences. Northern China is at a higher latitude, which means it’s cold and dry throughout the whole year. This weather is difficult to grow vegetables in. Therefore, northerners tend to eat more meat.
The study also found differences in the immune systems of both groups. Most people in southern China carry the gene CR1, which protects against malaria. This is because malaria was once quite common in southern China. In order to survive, the genes of people in the south evolved to fight against this disease. However, people in the south are also more vulnerable to certain blood-borne illnesses, as they lack the genes to stop them.
Genes can also cause physical differences between northerners and southerners. Most northerners have the ABCC11 gene, which causes dry earwax (耳屎), less body odor and fewer sweat secretions (分泌), The New York Times reported. These physical differences are also more beneficial to living in cold environments. Southerners are less likely to have this gene, as it did not evolve in their population.
【1】What’s this passage mainly about?
A. A study of the genes of Chinese minority groups.
B. Habits of people from different regions of China.
C. Differences in the genes of people from different parts of China.
D. Physical differences between northerners and southerners.
【2】A variation of the gene FADS2 can help our body ________.
A. store fat B. digest meat
C. fight disease D. control sweat
【3】The underlined word “comprised” is closest in meaning to ________.
A. consisted of B. compared to
C. completed D. started with
【4】According to the passage, most northerners in China ________.
a. tend to have less disease like malaria
b. have less body odor
c. catch blood-borne illnesses easily
d. sweat less frequently
A. ab B. bc
C. bd D. cd
22、In America when people say “man’s best friend” they don’t mean another person. Instead they are talking about a lovely animal: A dog ! These words show the friendship between people and animals. Dogs and other pets can give happiness to people’s lives. Some people think of their pets as their children. A few even leave all their money to their pets when they die!
Animals can help people too. Dogs can be taught to become the “eyes” for a blind person or “ears” for a deaf people. Scientists have found that pets help people live longer! They make people happier too. Because of that animals are brought into hospitals for “visit”.
Americans hold “Be-Kind-to- Animals Week” in the fist week of May.
Pets shows are held during the week. Even if you don’t live in America you can do this too. How? First think about how animals make your life richer. If you have a pet take more time this week to play with it. Remember to give it delicious food. Also be sure to keep your pet from those unwanted babies.
If you don’t have a pet, be kind to animals around you. For example if you see a street dog don’t kick it or throw things at it. Instead just leave it alone or better yet make friends with it. If others around you do bad things to an animal try to stop them. As people we must protect animals who can’t speak for themselves.

23、My daughter Kelly is a cautious person. She needs to warm up to situations,who is hesitant to try new things. When with close friends, she becomes a leader who laughs loudly and chants, “Girls rule, boys drool.” But when that comfort zone is not around her, she is shy and nervous.
This has been challenging for me at times. “Shy” is not a word that I think has ever been used to describe me. But this has been a year of firsts for my girl that has filled her with a new sense of confidence. This year she moved to lap lane in swimming where she was preparing for a swim team. This year she learned to ride a bike without training wheels. And this year she completed her first kids’ triathlon (三项全能) .
On Saturday, with a thunderstorm coming soon and my son’s birthday party later in the day, we all went out in the dark of the morning for Kelly to participate in her first triathlon. We practiced transitions from swim to bike to run with her, we got all the equipment she’d need, and we kept talking about the race. But as we waited the two hours for the older kids to finish before her turn, she held my leg a little harder and told me she loved me a few too many times. She was nervous but trying to keep it together.
And then it was her turn. From the second she jumped into the water, my heart soared. My daughter transformed into the most confident human being I had ever seen. She dominated(主宰) that swim, crushed that bike ride and ran to the finish with the biggest smile on her face.
I can honestly say that I never felt so proud of someone in my entire life. It wasn’t because she did
a sport or anything like that. It was because she was afraid of something and conquered（克服） that fear with confidence and a fire I hadn’t seen before.
All day I would find myself just looking over at her and smiling. She might be wearing the finalist medal but I felt like I won that day. I won the chance to see my girl shine.
Shine on, sweet baby.

24、 Disturbed by reports of rising domestic violence under coronavirus lockdown, a Polish high school student launched a fake online shop to offer a lifeline to victims trapped in their homes. Her idea won a European Union prize that came with €10,000（$12,120）.
"I heard about a French initiative(计划), where people go to the pharmacy (药房) and ask for a special mask that lets the pharmacist know they are a victim of domestic violence," Krystyna Paszko explained. "I thought it was so brilliant!" In April, she decided to open her shop "Camomiles and Pansies" to sell those cosmetics. When a victim writes asking to buy a cream, a psychologist responds instead of a salesperson and asks how long the "skin problems" have been going on for. If someone places an order and leaves an address, it is actually a code asking for authorities to visit their home.
After Krystyna openly wrote about her plan on her own Facebook page, she was flooded with questions. "I thought it would only be for my friends, but the shares on Facebook were big and it became a hit," she said. With so much interest, she contacted the Women's Rights Centre, a Polish NGO, asking for assistance. In response it provided psychologists and lawyers to work with the website. Since its launch, more than 350 people have contacted the website. Most of the victims are young, under 40, and about 10% are male. The president of the Women's Rights Centre, Urszula Nowakowska, said she was "very impressed" by Krystyna's project. "There are around 70,000 domestic violence cases annually in Poland, of which 56, 000 are treated as family conflicts rather than crimes."
Krystyna credits her interest in human rights to her role in the scouts（童子军）—she leads a Warsaw scout group and created its Facebook page. After she won the prize, she claimed to put the money to good use and was pleased that a spotlight was being shone on the problem of home abuse.
【1】What might have inspired Krystyna with the idea?
A．The decreasing domestic violence cases.
B．The French initiative to sell special masks.
C．The urge to win the European Union prize.
D．The advice from a professional psychologist.
【2】How can a victim get help from Krystyna's project?
A．By appearing to be shopping online.
B．By requesting psychological support.
C．By purchasing a specially-made cream.
D．By logging on a fake account to place orders.
【3】What can we know about the website mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A．Krystyna shared its success on Facebook.
B．A Polish NGO offered financial assistance to it.
C．It classifies domestic violence as family conflicts.
D．Young female victims have benefited most from it.
【4】Which of the following words best describe Krystyna?
A．Caring and easy-going.
B．Supportive and tolerant.
C．Courageous and humorous.

That night, I quarreled with my mother, and then stormed out of the house. While on the road, I remembered that I did not have any money in my pocket, I did not even take my cell phone with me to make a call home．
At the same time, I went through a noodle shop, and I suddenly felt very hungry. I wished for a bowl of noodles, but I had no money!
The seller saw me standing before the counter and asked, “Hey little girl, you want to eat a bowl？” “But …but I do not carry money …” I shyly replied．
“Okay, I’ll treat you．” the seller said, “come in, I will cook you a bowl．”
A few minutes later the owner brought me a steaming bowl of noodles. After eating some pieces, I cried．
“What is it？” He asked．
“Nothing. I am just touched by your kindness!” I said as I wiped my tears. “Even a stranger on the street gives me a bowl of noodles, and my mother, after a quarrel, chased me out of the house. She is cruel （残忍的）!”
The seller sighed, “Girl, why did you think so? Think again. I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you felt that way. Your mother has been taking care of you since you were little, why were you not grateful and why did you hurt your mom? You should say sorry to your mom.”
