21、One late summer evening, I stood in my father’s garden, watching my kids dig in the dirt with toy bulldozers（推土机）. I had driven up to my parents’ house that afternoon feeling upset My husband was working day and night, and my twins hadn’t napped. I was one step away from a complete breakdown.
“Come up,” my mom said, “Let’s rest for a while.”
As the day of temporary relaxation drew to a close, I took a walk around Dad’s once-neat garden rows and noticed the tomato plants Dad had planted.
“Roma tomatoes, the kind for sauce. Renember when your mom used to make sauce?” my father said. I hadn’t thought of it in years actually. It was a recipe passed from my Italian immigrant great-grandmother down to my grandmother and then my mother. And that’s where it had stopped. Though I liked cooking, I didn’t want to waste much time on the dish. Why should I simmer（慢慢地煮）tomato sauce all day when I could make different kinds of dishes?
Dad gave me an idea. “I’m going to make sauce,” I said. My father raised a skeptical eyebrow but grabbed some boxes and told the kids to start picking. The twins threw tomatoes like softballs to each other as the youngest begged to join me. Everyone was crying at one point and I almost gave up on my big plan. Yet something inside me fought back, a deep-seated fancy for finding the link between the recipe’s owner and me.
At last, I successfully finished my sauce and it was approved by my parents. The efforts I made with those boxes of tomatoes gave me a sense of accomplishment. Each crank of the handle（柄）, each slice of the knife, each stir of the pot was a prayer for comfort and confidence. Like most things that are worthwhile, the mess was part of the process.
【1】The author went to her parents ’house that afternoon to______.
A．pay a visit to her parents

A．Encouraging.
B．Pleased.
C．Doubtful.
D．Upset.
【3】What made the author continue her big plan?
A．Her desire to follow a family tradition.
B．The encouragement from her father.
C．The expectation from the recipe’s owner.
D．Her children’s requirement.
【4】What message does the story send?
A．Where there is a will there is a way.
B．Life is most beautiful when it is imperfect.
C．All things will come round to who will wait.
D．Ups and downs make one strong.
22、Each year, there are many new products to be put on the market. We have made a list of some products of this year.
Verde G690 treadmill (跑步机)
A new exercise machine by the American company SportsArt is designed to help people stay fit and also generate electricity. Verde G690 treadmill is operated by people instead of a motor. The company says the machine can capture up to 200 watts of power per hour from human energy.
Water from Air WFA6
The machine draws water molecules straight from the air and converts them into water. The water then passes through a sediment filter (沉淀物过滤器) and a carbon filter. It is also sterilised (消毒) thoroughly through 3 UV lights, removing bacteria. The water, produced is pure, safe drinking water that is safe for your body! The company says the machine can produce up to 30 liters of water per day.
Inubox
A product design company in Texas recently claimed to have created the world’s first fully automated dog toilet. Called Inubox, it’s a self-contained toilet system that captures, processes and contains a dog’s waste. Inubox knows when a dog steps onto the platform, and it detects the waste left behind. Once the dog leaves, it closes the platform and completes the cleaning cycle in less than one minute.
Y-Brush
A French company introduced a toothbrush that can perfectly clean a person’s teeth in just 10 seconds. The Y-Brush by FasTeesH is a mouthpiece shaped just like human teeth. It has numerous small brushes to clean all teeth at once.
【1】What advantage does Verde G690 treadmill have?
A．Its size is small.

23、 In 1992, Teen Talk Barbie was released with the controversial voice fragment, “Math class is hard.” While the toy's release met with strong public reaction, this underlying assumption persists, spreading the myth that women do not thrive in science, technology, engineering and mathematic (STEM) fields due to biological inadequacies in math aptitude. However, in 2019 Jessica Cantlon at Carnegie Mellon University led a research team that comprehensively examined the brain development of young boys and girls and found no gender difference in brain function or math ability.
Cantlon and her team conducted the first neuroimaging study to evaluate biological gender differences in math aptitude of young children. Her team used functional MRI（核磁共振）to measure the brain activity in 104 young children (3-to-10-year-old; 55 girls) while watching an educational video covering early math topics, like counting and addition. The researchers compared scans from the boys and girls to evaluate brain similarity. In addition, the team examined brain maturity by comparing the children's scans to those taken from a group of adults (63 adults; 25 women) who watched the same math videos.
After numerous statistical comparisons, Cantlon and her team found no difference in the brain development of girls and boys. In addition, the researchers found no difference in how boys and girls processed math skills and were equally engaged while watching the educational videos. Finally, boys' and girls' brain maturity were statistically equivalent when compared to either men or women in the adult group.
Cantlon said she thinks society and culture are likely steering girls and young women away from math and STEM fields, as previous studies show that families spend more time with young boys in play that involves spatial cognition（空间认知）. “Typical socialization can make worse small differences between boys and girls that can snowball into how we treat them in science and math,” Cantlon said. “We need to be aware of these origins to ensure we aren't the ones causing the gender inequities.”
However, this project is focused on early childhood development using a limited set of math tasks. Cantlon wants to continue this work using a broader scope of math skills, such as spatial processing and memory, and follow the children over many years.
【1】What can we infer about the toy’s release?
A.It has raised a storm of applause.
B.Girls perform no worse than boys in math.
C.Math is a subject difficult to every one of us.
D.Women are born with insufficient math abilities.
【2】What can we learn from the study conducted by Cantlon?
A.Boys process math skills more quickly than girls.
B.Boys and girls have similar brain in math abilities.
C.Boys and girls have similar interest in math.
D.Adults have better brain than children in math.
【3】What will Cantlon most likely agree with?
A.Parents should lengthen the time spent with girls.
B.Society is causing a greater gender difference in math abilities.
C.Culture plays a leading role in children’s brain development.
D.We should cultivate boys’ and girls’ math abilities equally.
【4】How will Cantlon further her research?
A.By using a wider range of math skills.
B.By involving a broader scope of subjects.
C.By increasing the complexity of math tasks.
D.By following the children until their adulthood.
24、 Ms Green’s dog was barking. It was its lunch time, but there was not any meat in the house.
Considering that there was no better way, Ms Green took a piece of paper, and wrote the following words on it, “Give my dog half a pound of meat.” Then she gave the paper to her dog and said gently, “Take this to the butcher, and he’s going to give you your lunch today.”
Holding the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butcher’s shop. It gave the paper to the butcher. The butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was really the lady’s handwriting and pleasantly did as he was asked to. The dog was very happy, and ate the meat up immediately.
At midday, the dog came to the shop again. It gave the butcher a piece of paper again. After reading it, he gave it half a pound of meat once more, smiling.
The next day, the dog came again exactly at midday. And as usual, it brought a piece of paper in the mouth. This time, the butcher did not take a look at the paper, and gave the dog its meat without any delay, for he had thought of the dog as one of his customers.
However, the dog came again at four o’clock. And the same thing happened once again. To the butcher’s more surprise, it came for the third time at six o’clock, and brought with it a third piece of paper. The butcher felt a bit puzzled. He said to himself, “This is a small dog. Why does Ms Green give it so much meat to eat today?”
Looking at the piece of paper, he found that there were not any words on it!

A.Because she wanted her dog to send the butcher a message for some meat home.
B.Because she often did something like this to solve the dog’s lunch problem.
