22、The sonnet (十四行诗) was introduced into English poetry by Sir Thomas Wyatt the Elder and Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey, during the first half of the sixteenth century. It originated, however, in Italy three centuries earlier, with the earliest examples known being those of Giacomo da Lentini, a Sicilian poet. The form was taken up by the two most famous poets of the Italian Renaissance, Dante Alighieri and Francesco Petrarch, and indeed the latter is regarded as the master of the form.
The Petrarchan sonnet form in English poetry includes fourteen lines. Each line is ten syllables long and divided into five pairs of syllables. In each pair, the first syllable is unstressed and the second stressed. This can be seen if we look at the first line of one of
William Wordsworth’s sonnets, “After-Thought”: “I thought of Thee, my partner and my guide”. If we break down this line into its syllabic parts, we can see the five pairs and the stress pattern (in this example each stressed syllable is underlined), thus: “I thought/of Thee/my part/ner and/my guide.”
The rhyme scheme for the Petrarchan sonnet is equally as strict. The poem is generally divided into two parts, the octave (8 lines) and the sestet (6 lines).
Early on, however, English poets began to vary and experiment with this structure. The first major development was made by Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey, and was taken up and perfected by William Shakespeare. The Shakespearean sonnet also has fourteen lines with each line containing five pairs of syllables, but rather than the division into the octave and sestet, the poem is made up of three quatrains (四行诗) and a final rhyming couplet (对句). And each quatrain has its own rhyme scheme; thus a Shakespearean sonnet would rhyme abab cdcd efef gg. Such a structure naturally allows poets greater freedom to develop ideas.
These, then, are the two standard forms of the sonnet in English poetry, but it should be recognized that poets rarely follow rules exactly and a number of other sonnet types have been developed.
【1】What can we learn about the sonnet?
A．It first appeared in the 13th century.
B．It was perfected by Thomas Wyatt.
C．Giacomo da lentini first brought it to England.
D．Dante Alighieri wrote the best sonnets in Italy.
【2】How should we break down the sixth line of “After-Thought”?
A．The/Form remains/the Function/never dies.
B．The Form/remains/the Func/tion ne/ver dies.
C． The Form/remains/the Func/tion ne/ ver dies.
D．The/Form remains/the Function /never dies.
【3】What is a major feature of the Shakespearean sonnet?
A．Its quatrains are usually stressed.
B．It can be divided into four parts.
C．Its rhyme scheme can change freely.
D．It contains more syllables than the Petrarchan sonnet.
【4】What would be the best title for the text?
A．The basic rules of writing English sonnets
B．The unique structure of sonnets
C．Two major forms of English sonnets
D．A group of great sonnet poets
23、I was born with nemaline rod muscular myopathy, which is a rare disease and makes me weak. Therefore, I use an electric wheelchair to get around and a ventilator (呼吸机) to help me breathe. So I have the unusual body shape, a size 6 everywhere else and a size 12 in my waist.
Growing up, I’d always loved fashion, but in my later teens, I really discovered my style—classic modem. When I was 18 years old, I became a part-owner of a racehorse and now I have shares in several horses. As I started going lo the races, I started posting more on social media, including the outfits I was wearing. I was doing it just for fun but then people became more interested. The dressing up, however, got even more extravagant and cost much when I started competing in Fashions on the Field.
Finding outfits that fitted my body shape while also keeping with my style became increasingly hard. Eventually, my mum went from just changing my clothes to sewing complete outfits, which also helped us save a lot of money. Thanks to her effort, I first won Fashions on the Field last year in a white and black dress. This year I made the top 10 in Myer Fashion.
I was the only person with a physical disability to compete in Myer Fashion this year. I was also named in Vogue Australia as one of the best racing styles from Myer Fashions. After that, I got a Bachelor of Commerce, majoring in marketing and advertising, at Curtin University, where I discovered my passion for digital marketing.
As a result of the remote internship and wanting to work in the digital marketing space, I started a small digits] marketing agency. My business has just turned a year old and I already have five full-time clients as well as some additional work for others.

24、Last August, I visited Melbourne Zoo and saw a baby Sumatran orangutan (苏门答腊猩猩). His birth was part of an international program to help the Sumatran orangutan survive as a species. At the moment these beautiful animals are in danger of disappearing in the next 10 to 20 years.
Melbourne Zoo is a modem zoo. Like most modem zoos, it cares very much about animals. It is not a cruel place. You could certainly argue that zoos were cruel places in the past, but I don't believe you can argue that they are cruel places today.
In the past, zoos were exhibition parks. Their only purpose was to give humans pleasure, by showing them wonderful animals that they would otherwise never see. Because animals were only there for the good of humans, no one took much care of them. They were transported thousands of miles around the world, then locked up in small, lonely cages (笼子). In those days, zoos were cruel.
These days, things are very different. The whole purpose of zoos has changed. Now zoos have three main purposes: education, conservation (保护) and research. They aim to make animals better off everywhere. Because of this, the way animals are cared for is also different.
Education is a big part of the activity at zoos. At Sydney's Taronga Park Zoo, for example, 130, 000 school children attend special programs every year to learn about how animals behave and what they need to live. The aim is to make children learn more about animals now so that they will care about them when they are adults.
Zoos play a major role in the protection and conservation of endangered species. The Sumatran orangutan is just one example of the many animals that are better off because of special programs.
Zoos carry out many important research programs which help animals in captivity (囚禁) and in the wild. Recent research, for example, has shown that many intelligent animals enjoy playing games while in captivity.
Modern zoos care about animals first, and people second. Zoos are not cruel places.
【1】What does the author think of Melbourne Zoo?
A．Old.
B．Cruel.
C．Caring.
D．Big.
【2】What was a zoo's major purpose in the past according to the author?
A．To please human beings.
B．To look after sick animals.
C．To bring pleasure to animals.
D．To give visitors a chance to learn.
【3】What does Sydney's Taronga Park Zoo do?
A．It introduces new species.
B．It holds animal exhibitions in schools.
C．It has special animal programs for adults.
D．It educates children about animals' behavior.
【4】What's the best title for the text?
A．Zoos are not cruel places
B．Zoos need to be changed
C．Zoos are popular with kids
D．Zoos should set animals free

The French,________tend to shop daily, walking to small shops and farmers' markets where they have a________of fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs as well as high-quality meats for each meal.

26、阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Of the thousands of different kinds of animals that exist in the world man has learned to make friends with an enormous number. Some are pets，and offer him companionship; some give protection，and some do hard work which man cannot do for himself. Dogs，which serve man in all three capacities，are found in various species in all countries of the world. The Husky can live in the cold polar regions，and the Saluki is at home in the hottest parts of Central Africa. The people of certain countries are dependent for their very lives on the camel. In the West Indies the little donkey，strong and sure－footed，carrying heavy loads even in mountainous places，is a familiar sight.
Trained and tamed for many generations，domestic (驯养的)animals are not accustomed to wandering in search of food and shelter. They look to their masters to provide for their needs，and as long as these are supplied，they are content to do what their masters require.
All domestic animals need proper food. It must be suitable for them，enough in quantity，fresh and clean. Some people feed a pet dog or cat on odds and ends of table scraps (吃剩的东西)，and then wonder why the animal seems tired and dull. The quantity of food depends on the size of the animal and the amount of exercise it takes. Overfeeding is as bad as underfeeding. Containers for food and water must be washed regularly if the animal is to maintain good health.
Even well－cared for animals may sometimes fall ill. If this happens，the wise master seeks the best advice he can get. All sorts of medicines and treatments are available for sick animals，and in some countries organizations exist to provide them free or at a cheap price. Useful，friendly，hardworking animals deserve to have some time and money spent on their health.
