21、Electrical devices (仪器) could soon use power made by human energy. Scientists say they have developed an experimental device that produces electricity from the physical movement of a person walking. British scientist Max Donelan and other scientists in Canada and the United States developed the device.
The device connects to a person’s knee. As the person walks, the device captures energy each time the person slows down. To do this, the device helps with the slowing down movement of the leg. The movements of the walking person push parts of a small machine that produces electricity. Using the device, an adult walking quickly could produce thirteen watts of electricity in just a minute. Donelan says walking at that speed could produce enough power to operate a laptop computer for six minutes.
There are several possible uses for the device. Developers say it could help people who work in areas without electricity to operate small computers. The device could also be used in hospitals to operate heart pacemakers (起博器). It could even be used to assist in the movement of robotic arms and legs.
The experimental version of the device weighs about one and a half kilograms, but it is too costly for most people to buy. But the researchers hope to make a lighter, less costly version. An improved version should be ready in one year.
The developers hope the device will one day help developing countries. Nearly twenty five percent of people around the world live without electric power.
A similar product was invented in 2005 by Larry Rome of the University of Pennsylvania. He created a bag carried on a person’s back that also produces power from walking. The knee device does not produce as much electricity as the bag, but the bag requires the walker to carry a load of twenty to thirty kilograms.
【1】What does the second paragraph tell us?
A.How the device works.
B.How the device connects to a person’s knee.
C.What the device can do to help a person slowing down.
D.What the device can do to help people’s physical movements.
【2】Which of the following sentences could best describe the amounts of the collected energy?
A.It is enough to operate a computer for a long time.
B.It can satisfy those working in areas without electricity.
C.It can be used in hospitals to operate heart pacemakers.
D.It has been used to move robotic arms and legs.
【3】What can be inferred from the passage?
A.The device has been widely used.
B.The device needs some improvement.
C.The majority of people can afford the device.
D.It has brought benefits to the developing countries.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A.New Device Has Been Invented
B.The Knee Device Produce Energy
C.Device Helps Capturing Physical Energy
D.Device Gives New Meaning to the Idea of Power Walking
22、 When Erin Shields sang “Being Alive,” a popular song from the Broadway show “Company,” the song had extra levels of meaning.
Shields and her husband David Shenton are touring musicians. They could not perform around the world during the coronavirus pandemic. So they broadcast virtual concerts from home to raise money for the Mosaic West Queens Church in New York City. The concerts brought thousands of dollars to the church to help feed hungry people living in the neighborhood. They also gave the two musicians a chance to continue their artistic lives.
It began when they saw the long lines of people waiting for food outside the church near their home. Several of their friends had lost jobs after Broadway theaters closed. And they felt the need to help.
In September, they volunteered at the church to give away boxes of food to families two times a week. As time passed, they felt the need to do more for others during the pandemic. “I’m not a doctor ... I don’t really have much to offer. But you know, we can perform,” said Shields.
She is an opera singer from the American state of Illinois. Her husband Shenton is a British composer, pianist and violinist. And their artistic friends were willing to join for a good cause.
“We have all these connections to Broadway singers outside of their work on Broadway, so we wanted to capitalize on that,” Shenton said.
During a recent virtual concert, smiling families, watching on their computers at home, clapped and sang along. Among the performers were Broadway musicians known for their work in shows such as “Hamilton” and “The Little Mermaid” as well as “Les Miserables.”
Shields said volunteering became especially important last year when New York turned into the center of the pandemic. “If you’re feeling low, volunteer, give back to other people, because it will make you feel better,” Shields said.
【1】What can we learn about Erin Shields?
A.She found a new job during the pandemic.
B.The song “Being Alive” made her more popular.
C.She gave up her artistic life to help hungry people.
D.Virtual concerts enabled her to continue her performance.
【2】What does the underlined phrase “capitalize on” in paragraph 6 probably mean?
A.Take advantage of.
B.Keep track of.
C.Get the hang of.
D.Make a list of.
【3】Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.Volunteering Makes People Feel Better
B.Musicians Raise Money to Feed Neighbors
C.Music Gives People Strength to Pull Through
D.Food Supply Becomes too Low in New York

24、 “People are ruder today because they are rushed and more ‘time poor’ than ever before,” says Patsy Rowe, “Manners_have_fallen_off_the_radar(雷达).” Due to our strong attraction to electronic equipment it is a wonder more people don't wake up each morning and greet the singing birds with a complaint(抱怨)about the noise. Here are some examples of rudeness.
Some people prefer to do almost everything over the Internet. To them, dealing with an actual human needs more patience. It feels very slow because humans don't work at 4G speeds. When you have dinner with friends, you will often notice someone paying more attention to his mobile phone. We have programmed ourselves to think that every new message brings life-changing news, so taking calls and checking our texts are more important than talking to the people we are with. What is worse, some people even tend to send anonymous(匿名的) rude messages by email.
However, rudeness is never acceptable. Don't assume it is OK to be rude if the person you're in touch with won't recognize you. If you have something awful to say, have the courage to face the person and say it, write a letter or email and sign it, or forget it. Upsetting people with unsigned messages is cruel and disgusting.(令人厌恶的)
We shouldn't blame technology for our shortcomings. Technology is here to help us,but we should not allow it to take over our lives. An important step is acknowledging our shortcomings. People spend a lot of time pointing out bad manners but it would be even more helpful if we'd publicly acknowledge good manners when we see them.
【1】What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1?
A.People can tell good from bad behavior.
B.Radar is able to observe human behavior.
C.People care little about their behavior.
D.Radar can be used to predict human behavior.
【2】Some people are less willing to deal with humans because ________.
A.they are becoming less patient
B.they are growing too independent
C.they have to handle many important messages
D.they have to follow an evolutionary step backward
【3】The author thinks sending unsigned awful messages is ________.
A.ridiculous
B.disgusting
C.acceptable
D.reasonable
【4】What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.We should applaud (为喝彩) good behavior.
B.Technology can never be blamed.
C.We should keep pointing out mistakes.
D.Technology will take over our lives one day.

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。
My name is Adam and I'm a freshman at senior high school. Going from junior high school to senior high school is a really big challenge. The first week was a little confusing.
Firstly I had to think very carefully about which courses I wanted to take, I turned to the school adviser for advice, He is very kind and patient He helped me choose the suitable ones: maths, English, chemistry, world history, and Chinese. I know that Chinese is a very difficult language, but I hope to have a very good command of it and' be fluent when I graduate. My adviser also recommended that I should sign up for advanced literature because I like English and I'm good at it
Secondly, I had to choose extra-curricular activities, too. I tried to join the school football team, but the coach told me that I didn't play well enough. Obviously, I was unhappy and in low spirits, but I won't quit. I'm determined to practice more and make improvements on my own so that I can make the team next year. I joined a volunteer club instead. Every Wednesday, we work at a soup kitchen and hand out food to homeless people in the community.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右:2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Besides, in my first math class,I found the teacher speak too fast.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I know I’ll have to study harder as a senior high school student and try to get used to the new school life.
