21、If you don't want people to know too much about you, then you had better keep your fridge contents secret according to a British market research document released last week.
Researchers peered(凝视) into the fridges of 400 people in Britain and compared the contents with the owners' lifestyles.
They say those people can be divided into five categories: nutrition nerds (no social sense), food faddiest (whatever's in style), martyr mums, fast food fanatics and restaurant regulars.
Nutrition nerds care much about what they put into their bodies. Their fridges are filled with fruit, vegetables and healthy meat.
People in this category tend to be highly organized and usually work in law or accountancy. The vast majority is single, but if they have a partner, that person will be similar.
A fridge full of vitamins-enriched juices implies its owner works in media or fashion. They tend not to eat the foods they buy. Known as the food faddies, they just want to be seen as purchasing the latest important things.
A fridge full of everything from steak to frozen fish suggests the martyr mum. Her fridge tends to be stocked with every kind of product, except what she herself would want.
This fridge suggests difficulty balancing family and work life. Fast food fanatics always buy mineral water for soda pop; the nearest they will get to fresh fruit is tomato sauce. Their fridges hint(暗示) at someone who works hard and plays hard. Also, someone who is not into long term planning.
Finally, a fridge filled with nothing more than a bottle of white wine and some sparkling mineral water implies an owner who is single, lives in a big city and enjoys the finer things in life. The fridge is empty because this person regularly eats in restaurants.
【1】We can know from the first two paragraphs that .
A. some researchers are fond of staring at other people's fridges
B. people don't want others to know about their secrets
C. the food you put in the fridge has something to do with your character
D. there are mainly five kinds of lifestyles among British people
【2】According to the passage, people who belong to food faddiest .
A. don't care much about money when buying things
B. will try their best to stay healthy
C. often stay up late to finish their job
D. prefer to ask others about what to do next
【3】What will those who often eat out put in the fridge?
A. All kinds of food they like. B. Only something to drink.
C. Fruit, vegetables and meat. D. Food rich in vitamins.
【4】What might be the most suitable title for the text?
A. Keep your fridge a secret B. You are what's in your fridge
C. What to put in the fridge D. Be careful about your fridge
22、If a cat or dog shares your house, I’ll venture a guess that you don’t refer to the four-footed family member who licks your face and sleeps on your bed as “it”. You probably call them by a name, and refer to them as “he” or “she”.
A group of more than 80 people, including Dr. Jane Goodall, have signed a letter calling on the editors of the Associated Press Stylebook to change their guidance so that animals in news stories would be identified as “she/her/hers and he/him/his when their sex is known, regardless of species, and they, or he/she, or his/hers when their sex is unknown.” News organizations often follow the guidance of the AP Stylebook. The signers of this letter hope that when we write about animals in zoos, shelters, fields, farms, forests, seas and labs, they are recognized as living beings who feel hunger, fear, happiness and pain. “This update would reflect the fact that animals are sentient (有感情的) beings, and encourage people to respect and protect them and their rights and interests, and to shape a fairer world,” says Jane.
Ben Dreyer, copy chief at Random House, says thoughtful adjustments to our language don’t have to wait for a stylebook. “Writers should write the way they see fit to write,” he says. “The so-called genderless ‘he’ for instance is now a thing of the past because writers have abandoned it.”
Laura Hillenbrand, author of Seabiscuit and other best-selling books, tells us that if we don’t refer to animals in personal terms, we open ourselves to abusing, ignoring, and exploiting (剥削) creatures whose capacity for suffering is no less than our own. “We form beautiful, profound relationships with them, and we justly place animals on a moral plane alongside ourselves and far above that of the brick or the cap, the things we call ‘it’,” she says.
【1】What does the author intend to do in the opening paragraph?
A．Encourage readers to keep a pet.
B．Give some advice to pet keepers.
C．Distinguish pets from ordinary animals.
D．Provide an example for the topic discussed.
【2】What is the purpose of the letter mentioned in Para 2?
A．To improve animal welfare.
B．To standardize the use of pronouns.
C．To expose the unfair treatment of animals.
D．To offer news editors practical guidelines.
【3】The signers think animals should be identified as “he” or “she” instead of “it” because ________.
A．animals are friends of human beings
B．animals’ sex is usually known
C．animals’ gender should be respected
D．animals are the living beings that have emotions.
【4】What is Laura’s attitude toward the proposal for the AP Stylebook?
A．Cautious.
B．Disapproving.
C．Uncertain.
D．Favorable.
【5】What can be the best title for the text?
A．How to refer to pets in your houses.
B．How to use gender pronouns properly
C．Do animals deserve gender pronouns?
D．Is “he” a genderless pronoun?

24、Self-driving cars are just around the corner. Such vehicles will make getting from one place to another safer and less stressful. They also could cut down on traffic, reduce pollution and limit accidents. But how should driverless cars handle emergencies? People disagree on the answer.
To understand the challenge, imagine a car suddenly meets some pedestrians in the road. It’s too late to avoid a crash. So the car’s artificial intelligence must decide whether to swerve(急转弯), To save the pedestrians, should the car swerve off the road or swerve into oncoming traffic:? What if such options :would likely kill the car’s driver?
Researchers used online survey to study people’s attitudes about such situations with driverless cars. Survey participants mostly agreed automated cars should be designed to protect the most people. That included swerving into walls to save a larger number of pedestrians. However, those same surveyed want to ride in cars that protect passengers at all costs-even if the pedestrians would now end up dying. Jean-Francois Bonnefon, a psychologist at the Toulouse School of Economics, and his colleagues reported their findings in Science.
“Automated cars can revolutionize transportation, says study coauthor Iyad Rahwan. But he adds, this new technology creates a moral (道德的) dilemma that could slow its acceptance.
Makers of computerized cars are at a loss for what to do next. Most buyers would want their cars to be programmed to protect them in preference to other people. However, regulations might one day instruct that cars must act for the greater good. But the scientists think rules like this could drive away buyers, If so, all the potential benefits of driverless cars would be lost.
Compromises(妥协) might be possible, another psychologist, Kurt Gray says. He thinks if all driverless cars are programmed to protect their passengers in emergencies, traffic accidents will drop. Those vehicles might be dangerous to pedestrians on rare occasions. But they “won’t speed, won’t drive drunk and won’t text while driving, which would be a win for society. "
【1】The underlined word “challenge" in Paragraph 2 refers to .
A. the technical problems that self-driving cars have
B. how self-driving cars reduce traffic accidents
C. how self-driving cars handle emergencies
D. people’s negative attitude towards self-driving cars
【2】According to the passage, online surveys show that .
A. people care about whose safety should come first
B. self-driving cars should be designed to protect drivers
C. the busy traffic may be a problem for self-driving cars
D. self-driving cars’ artificial intelligence needs improvement
【3】What can we infer from the fifth paragraph?
A. Regulations are in passengers’ favor.
B. Most people dislike driverless cars now.
C. Self-driving car makers are in a tough spot.
D. The potential benefits of driverless cars are ignored.
【4】What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Moral Dilemma Could Limit Appeal of Driverless Cars.
B. Driverless Cars Could Revolutionize Transportation,
C. New Regulations Have Great Influence on Driverless Cars.
D. People Disagree on the Future of Driverless Cars.

26、请认真阅读下面文字，并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。
Should parents leave all of their money to children and let them live a carefree life without even the necessity of earning money to support themselves? Here are two pieces of news about two celebrities:
Bill Gates: Bill Gates has promised to give all of his $ 58 billion fortune to charity he has set up with his wife, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which funds health and education projects around the world. He wanted to make a positive contribution to the world.
Zuckerberg: We will give 99% of our Facebook shares during our lives to advance human potential and promote equality. We know this is a small contribution compared to all the resources and talents of those already working on these issues. But we want to do what we can, working alongside many others.
Many world-famous wealthy businessmen choose to donate almost all of their possessions to the charity instead of leaving their fortune to their children. In their opinion, it is better to develop the quality of independence of their children, making them possess the competence of living by themselves.
