21、Since wars begin in the minds of men and women, it is in the minds of men and women that the protection of peace must be built. UNESCO is the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. It seeks to build peace through international co-work in education, sciences and culture.
As early as 1942, in wartime, the governments of the European countries, which were facing Nazi Germany and its partners, met in the United Kingdom for the Conference of Allied Ministers of Education (CAME). World War Ⅱ was far from over, yet those countries were looking for ways and means to rebuild their education systems once peace was restored. The project quickly gained support and soon reached a common agreement. New governments, including that of the United States, decided to join in. Upon the suggestion of CAME, a United Nations Meeting for the creation of an educational and cultural organization (ECO) was started in London from 1 to 16 November 1945. Hardly had the war ended when the meeting opened. It gathered together representatives of forty-four countries who decided to create an organization that would accept a sincere culture of peace. In their eyes, the new organization was to create the “agreement of mankind” and thereby prevent the possibility of another world war.
Political and economic agreements of governments are not enough to secure the lasting and sincere support of the peoples. Peace must be founded upon communication and understanding.
Peace must be built upon the agreement of humanity. In this spirit, UNESCO develops educational tools to help people live as global citizens free of hate and impatience. UNESCO works to ensure that every child and every citizen can get quality education. By protecting cultural richness and the equality of all cultures, UNESCO strengthens the connections between nations. UNESCO develops scientific programs and measures as chances for development and improvement. UNESCO stands up for freedom of expression. As a workshop of ideas, UNESCO helps countries to take international rules and manages programs that encourage the free flow of ideas and the exchange of knowledge.
【1】What is the main purpose of UNESCO?
A．To develop education.
B．To share the world’s culture.
C．To create a scientific environment.
D．To serve the building of a peaceful world.
【2】When was UNESCO actually founded?
A．In the fall of 1945.
B．Shortly after World War Ⅱ.
C．Long before the CAME suggestion.
D．After the second United Nations meeting.
【3】What does the underlined word “thereby” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A．thus
B．soon
C．safely
D．secretly
【4】What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A．How UNESCO tries to achieve its spirit.
B．How global affairs can get well managed.
C．What role UNESCO plays in a workshop.
D．What international exchanges are made up of.
22、 It is now February 7, 2035. The search engine TalkTalk will be open to the public next week and this service will soon be something beyond your imagination. For the first time you can not only talk to the search engine, but you can discuss with it what you are looking for.
For example, if you want to know more about the oil price, TalkTalk asks if you want to know the current oil price, the development of the oil price, or news related to the oil price. You say that you want to read news about it and TalkTalk then directs you to your source, or lets you have the latest news related to the oil price in order from the most respectable sources.
Compared with other search services that use a certain algorithm (程序) to provide data from a search, the artificial intelligence behind TalkTalk is said to easily spot if a certain source is aiming to cheat the searcher. TalkTalk also judges and stores every given reply and discussion, to learn how to give correct answers. TalkTalk is also set to answer questions directly where there is a definite answer. How well this will work in the long run is yet to be seen, but thousands of people have tested TalkTalk and the quality is really good.
The first talking search engine saw the light of day more than 30 years ago and was called Speegle. It could read the results from a written search on the Internet, and was mostly for blind people.
So far, TalkTalk cannot read the information from a certain source to you by phone, if it is not freely available. There are currently talks to find an arrangement for this, but it would most likely be difficult because of copyright (版权).
TalkTalk is available over the Internet and also by phone, even though it only speaks English. There are no plans to add other languages in the near future, most likely because it will cost a lot of money. When you are tired of asking TalkTalk all your questions, just ask, “Where is TalkTalk?” and you will get an answer that will make you leave it with a smile on your lips.
【1】The example in Paragraph 2 is given to show ________.
A．how to use the search engine TalkTalk.
B．how to search for news on the Internet.
C．the oil price is a very hot issue currently.
D．TalkTalk has a very high intelligence.
【2】The advantage of TalkTalk is that it can ________.
A．be available wherever you go.
B．tell if a certain source is reliable.
C．read the search results for you.
D．offer different kinds of search results.
【3】What can be inferred from the text?
A．TalkTalk can read all the information online.
B．TalkTalk will speak other languages soon.
C．TalkTalk may have a bright future.
D．TalkTalk is very expensive.
【4】What would be the best title for the text?
A．Hello, TalkTalk.
B．Where is TalkTalk.
C．TalkTalk is improving.
D．Development of search engines.
23、 I grew up in New Jersey and didn’t spend a night outdoors until I turned 30, when I decided I should know how to set up a tent. I attended a month-long course in the Absaroka Mountains in Wyoming and learned to be comfortable without a roof over my head. Ever since, I’ve tried to go camping once a year, to keep up my skills.
I’d been telling my son about the joys of the great outdoors, and he was eager to join me. And I was eager for him to experience at a young age what it had taken me so long to discover. Yet I was also worried. It seemed that every time I went camping, I forgot something---like a frying pan or my knife. I could get by with these mistakes when I was on my own. But with my son along, it was a different story.
So, with our supplies checked again and again, we piled into the car and headed north. After 20 minutes, my son turned and asked, "How much farther, Dad? "I’d worried that five miles might be too much for him, but the lake had seemed the perfect destination. I began to tell stories. But after a steep grade, he quit. Then I reached for my bag of M&M’s---the normally forbidden treat meant to be saved until our work was done.
Three dozen candy-coated chocolate later, we found the lake. We were excited. I showed him how to set up the tent. As darkness fell, my son laughed himself to sleep. In the morning, the stove wouldn’t light. My son had sardines and M&M’s for breakfast and pronounced it the best meal he had ever eaten. After a few hours, we went back home.
The following year, we got rained out, and the year after that, time got away from us. But next weekend, we’re heading out for another overnight. A bag of M&M’s is already in my pack.
【1】It can be concluded that the writer used to_________.
A.take his knife each time B.meet some unexpected trouble
C.fail to reach his destination D.prepare very well
【2】The underlined sentence "it was a different story" in Paragraph 2 means________.
A.he was a careless man B.he should be more careful
C.his son would help him a lot D.his son would handle the mistake
【3】Why did the writer tell the stories during the walk?
A.To encourage his son. B.To meet his son’s request.
C.To let his son forget the walk. D.To take a good rest.
【4】Why will the writer still carry a bag of M&M’s during the next camping?
A.Because they were his best meal. B.Because they were main camping food.
C.Because they were easy to carry. D.Because they were his son’s favorite.
24、Castles(城堡)and temples wear away after hundreds of years, but the symbols and E-books came from the development of words on the stone often survive.【1】 science and technology, and can be read online. Many people believe that regular books will be one day replaced by e-books.
Books and e-books share lots of similarities. They are both items created by great minds,【2】 You can draw lines or highlight some details on books or e-books as notes. The notes can be kept for a long time.
【3】Firstly, books don’t have to be charged, while e-books need electricity if we want to read them. Meanwhile, spending too much time reading e-books may do harm to our eyes. Moreover, e-books don't share the same weight when held in the hand as regular books, nor do they give that sense of fulfillment that comes from finishing a thick book. However，e-book devices(设备)are easy to carry.【4】
A disadvantage of e-book devices is that people tend to get distracted(分心)when they’re using one, as many devices often have apps or games on them.【5】
Whichever you prefer, both books and e-books are just a way to help us gain knowledge and get to know other people 's experiences. They are both necessary, so it's too early to say one will disappear.
A．But they have diferences as well
B．They take less space than books
C．Indeed our lives are formed by what books we read
D．This is similar to how the words in books manage to live on
E．They all have an index to introduce the main topic of each book
F．But with a regular book, your mind is always absorbed in the words
G．Each individual can decide which reading method is best for them based on their own needs
25、Now you’re a fool for helping. “I don’t want to get involved” seems to have become a national motto. One summer I was driving from my hometown of Tahoe City, California to New Orleans, Louisiana. In the middle of the desert, I passed a young man standing by the roadside. He had his _______ out and held a gas can in his other hand. I drove right by him. There was a time _______ you’d be called a jerk for passing by somebody _______.

I was ________ by people’s readiness to help a stranger.
In Oregon, a house painter named Mike __________ the cold weather and asked if I had a coat. I didn’t, so he gave me a big green army-style jacket. A lumber-mill worker in Michigan named Tim invited me to a __________dinner with his family in their shabby house. Then he offered me a tent.

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。
A month ago, I received an admission letter from Berkeley University, America, which made my whole family excited. Very soon, it was time for my leaving. On an unforgettable morning, my sister came to see me off. We arrived at the airport just in time for my flight. “Well, here we are,”my sister said with a sigh. As I watched her unload my luggage, I could see the sadness in her eyes. We had both been fearing this moment for the past week. After one last hug and a final goodbye, I would be on my way to a new life abroad.
I didn’t put my bag in the overhead locker;instead, I just placed it on my legs. The departure meant I could not see my dear sister for quite a long time. I was lost in thought, recalling the happy moments my sister and I had spent together. Growing up, my sister and I would do everything together. One sunny summer day I was playing outside when she came up to me and said, “Want to come to the attic(阁楼)?” We both knew that the answer to that question was always “Yes”. We were frightened of the attic but also fascinated by its smells and sounds. Whenever one of us needed something, the other one would come along.
Before I knew it, the plane took off. But while it was going up, the plane shook heavily and the bag on my legs fell onto the floor. My aspirin, hairbrush and a book I planned to read were spread out on the floor. I was about to bend down to gather them up when I saw an unfamiliar little book in the middle of my belongings. It was not until I picked it up that I realized that it was a diary.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Paragraph 1:
Immediately I recognized my sister’s handwriting.
