21、Mountain
A mountain is a landform that rises high above its surroundings. Taller than a hill, it usually has steep slopes and a rounded or sharp peak. Mountains are rarely found alone. 【1】 Lines of ranges form mountain belts.
Some mountains were formed by the activity of volcanoes. Scientists believe that most volcanic mountains are made up of rock that melted deep within earth. The rock rose through Earth’s surface, or crust. It then flowed onto the surface in the form of lava. 【2】 Volcanic mountains are typically steep. Mount Fuji in Japan, Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa, and Mount Rainier in the United States are examples of volcanic mountains.
Other mountains were formed by movements within Earth’s crust. The theory called plate tectonics explains this type of mountain building. Earth’s crust is divided into huge pieces called plates, which move very slowly. The continents sit on top of the plates and move with them. At times the plates strike against each other, forcing the rock upward. The Himalayas of Asia are an example of this type of mountain chain. 【3】
Mountain ranges are natural barriers to travel. Roads are difficult to build across them. Railroads need expensive tunnels to cross even low mountains. 【4】 They often form borders between countries.
Life is hard in mountain lands. The high places of the world are cold and have little soil, making farming difficult. 【5】 Skiing and climbing are popular mountain sports.
A．Groups of mountains are called ranges.
B．However, many mountain areas are vacation spots.
C．The lava, along with volcanic dust, built up to form mountains.
D．These colder climates strongly affect the ecosystems of mountains.
E．Thus the continental crust is normally much thicker under mountains.
F．Therefore mountain ranges tend to divide the people on either side of them.
G．They were formed when a plate carrying India struck against the Asian plate.
22、 It may seem clear to you that the image in which Barack Obama and David Cameron are kissing their spouses has been doctored (篡改) and cut together. But out on the Internet, not everyone will see it that way.
After the 2016 election, Facebook created a program to fact — check posts. They started paying organizations like Reuters and Politifact to mark content like this. Another agency looked through thousands of marked posts and saw all sorts of misinformation. Much of it was manipulated (操纵的) content—something that started off real but was later changed in some way to convey incorrect information. Some of those were doctored photos that were presented as real.
But many more were photos that weren't doctored. They were just not what the poster claimed. Like this photo: Dr. Anthony Fauci and Obama supposedly visiting “the Wuhan lab” in 2015 with Melinda Cates. The photo is “real”—it comes from the NIH. But that' s not Wuhan, it's Maryland. And that's not even Melinda Gates. We saw a lot of examples like this. And don' t think a post isn't manipulated just because it has numbers in it. The person who posted this map said it showed the number of missing children by county in Ohio last year. This is real data that really comes from the Ohio Attorney General' s office. Although it actually shows missing children reports, that's misleading. There were 20 ,000 reports in 2018, but less than 2% of those children were still missing when the report was published. Nearly all of them were safely recovered that year.
Unfortunately, we can't rely on just Facebook's fact—checking partners to prevent misinformation. Only a small part of the millions of posts circulating every day on the platform can be checked. According to the News Literacy Project, consumers should keep an eye on where a piece of information is coming from. Is it a reliable news agency? Are other news organizations reporting similar information? Where did an image or video first appear?
Misinformation often plays upon emotional responses. So if a questionable bit of information leaves you in anger, it may be manipulated content trying to manipulate you.
【1】Why did Facebook create the program?
A．To delete misleading posts.
B．To correct misinformation.
C．To analyze misinformation.
D．To check misleading posts.
【2】What can be concluded according to Paragraph 3?
A．Misinformation is originally unreal.
B．A post containing real data is reliable.
C．A post having numbers is easily believed.
D．Ohio is not a safe place for children.
【3】Misinformation may be a tool to ________ according to the passage.
A．manipulate readers.
B．avoid checking.
C．earn more money.
D．amuse readers.
【4】Which is the best title for the text?
A．All Sorts of Misinformation
B．Unavoidable Misinformation
C．Doctored Photos on Facebook
D．Manipulated Misinformation on the Internet

24、A simple project to help a family in need stopped Luke Mickelson in his tracks. In 2012, he and his family were inspired to build and donate a bunk bed, one bed on top of the other, after learning there were local children who slept on the floor. Shocked to discover how widespread this need was in his community, Mickelson founded Sleep in Heavenly Peace, a nonprofit that builds and delivers beds to children in need.
Born and raised in Idaho, Mickelson, now 41, had a thriving career. He coached his kids’ sports teams and fished in the nearby river. But when he met children who were sleeping on the floor, his peaceful life changed course.
Using safety guidelines and his daughter’s bunk bed as a model, Mickelson started buying wood and supplies to build beds with his own money. He recruited friends and family members to help around the holiday. As word spread, interest and involvement from his and other communities flooded—along with Mickelson’s bunk bed output. “That first project, we built 11 bunk beds in my garage,” he said. “The next year, we did 15. Then it doubled every year. In 2017, we built 612 bunk beds.”
With the motto “No kid sleeps on the floor in our town”, the nonprofit and its more than 65 branches have built and delivered more than 1,500 free beds to children across America. But along with the rapid growth, Mickelson was faced with a tough choice: advancing his career or his nonprofit. He chose the latter and went from making “great money to zero money”. He’s never looked back. “I found that the need I have isn’t financial,” he said. “The need I have is seeing the joy on kids’ faces, knowing that I can make a difference.”
【1】Why did Mickelson set up Sleep in Heavenly Peace?
