21、Although the weather is very hot now, the carnival of ice and snow is getting closer. The preparation work for Beijing Winter Olympic Games, which are expected to begin on Feb 4, 2022, has entered its final stage. In January, 2021, the ice-making work on the Ice Ribbon, a landmark venue for the Beijing Winter Olympics, was completed.
In the Winter Olympics, where races can be won or lost by a small-time gap, tiny imperfections in the ice can make a big difference. “It’s not just a hunk of ice like you’d normally think of, like ice cubes sitting in your freezer,” told Kenneth Golden, a US mathematician who studies the structures of ice. “It’s a much more fascinating and complex substance than people would normally think.”
The first step for building any ice rink is to purify the water to remove dissolved solids like salts and minerals. Such impurities don’t fit in the regular hexagonal (六边形的) structure of ice that forms as water freezes. The purer the water is, the more consistent the ice surface.
In addition to the need for excellence in the raw materials of ice-making, technology is also very important. As one of the most advanced technologies for winter sports venues, a carbon dioxide (CO2) cooling technology has been applied on a large scale for the Beijing Winter Olympic Games. CO2 is not new when it comes to ice-making. However, it has been gradually replaced by the man-made refrigerant (制冷剂) like Freon.
With increasing attention toward climate change, the old refrigerant has come into use again. As an element of the atmosphere, CO2 doesn’t damage the ozone layer. Although CO2 is a greenhouse gas, its greenhouse effect is much lower than that of other man-made refrigerants. The Winter Olympics venues adopted CO2 instead of Freon as a refrigerant in ice-making, which will reduce carbon dioxide emissions greatly.
“We believe these technological innovations will bring Beijing 2022 to spectators all over the world in a more impressive way,” told Gao Bo from the Media Operations Department of the Organizing Committee of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games.
【1】What is the result of impurities in water for ice-making?
A．The water isn’t able to freeze completely.
B．The quality of the ice will be affected.
C．The ice surface will be more consistent.
D．It’s likely for athletes to fall on the ice.
【2】Why has CO2 cooling technology been applied for the Winter Olympic Games?
A．It’s the most advanced technologies for ice-making.
B．CO2 is more efficient than other refrigerants.
C．CO2 is more environmentally-friendly than Freon.
D．CO2 has already existed in the atmosphere.
【3】What is Gao’s attitude to CO2 being applied to ice-making?
A．Unclear.
B．Opposed.
C．Doubtful.
D．Favourable.
【4】Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A．The Beijing Winter Olympic Games Is Coming.
B．Beneath Olympic Ice.

23、阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中（A、B、C和D），选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Britons may like to complain a lot, but they rarely do so right now, explains BBC writer Ruth Margolis. They would rather grumble (发牢骚) afterward． This is because Britons hate to put someone out and cause any embarrassment. Margolis writes, “For instance, I’m much more comfortable just leaving that piece of raw chicken on my plate instead of complaining to restaurant staff. But beware: if this kind of thing happens when you’re dining with an American, they will most likely speak up on your behalf and not understand why you find this ashamed．”
In a BBC blog post comparing cultural differences between the UK and the US, Margolis mentions a few other things that Americans like to do that are offensive to Britons.
● Not making introductions
Margolis says most Britons dislike this approach because “talking to strangers without being introduced gives them a stomachache”. Americans rarely introduce a new friend to their friends at parties. Strangers are supposed to introduce themselves.
● “Quite” good
Using “quite” to mean “very” happens a lot in the US. But if you are invited to a dinner party in Britain, don't describe the meal as “quite good” if you want to express high praise. To Britons’ ears, “quite” detracts from the “good”: the meal was OK but could have been better.
● Money Talk
Americans can talk about money subjects for hours without feeling uncomfortable. For Britons, says Margolis, “Talking about how much we make is unthinkable — even 1ess so than discussing our feelings.”
● Over-politeness
“It’s not that I want shop assistants to be actively rude. But neither do I want to expend energy responding to someone who's been paid to ask: ‘How are you today?’” says Margolis. In the US, it is not unusual to be greeted by a perfect stranger as “honey” or “sweetie”. But Margolis says Britons find put-on friendliness, especially in stores, deeply irritating.
【1】Margolis’ dining experience in Paragraph 1 shows that_______.
A． Britons are particular about foods
B． Britons are not good at complaining
C． Americans usually complain directly
D． Americans complain more than Britons
【2】Which of the following might Margolis agree with?
A． Britons enjoy talking about their feelings.
B． Americans introduce themselves at parties.
C． Americans dislike talking to strangers at parties.
D． Britons feel happy if treated like close friends.
【3】The underlined phrase “detracts from” in the text probably means ____.
A． differs greatly from
B． increases the quality of
C． reduces the strength of
D． draws attention away from
【4】What does the text mainly talk about?
A． How to get on well with westerners.
B． How to start conversations with Britons.
C． Ruth Margolis’ tips on public behavior.
D． Some American habits that annoy Britons.
24、Mars will launch a new range of lower calorie chocolate bars next month to avoid the government’s latest crackdown on unhealthy snacks.
The company’s “Triple Treat” range will include new versions of Mars, Bounty, Snickers and Galaxy bars, and will be available exclusively in Tesco supermarkets. The new formulation Mars bar will be 22 per cent smaller and contain 24 per cent fewer calories. However, it will cost 80p rather than the 65p charged for a standard bar. The company said the higher price was justified because it had used more expensive ingredients, such as date paste, raisins and peanuts in the new version.
From October, foods considered high in salt, fat or sugar, including Mars’s traditional bars, will be banned from checkouts, store entrances and the ends of aisles under government plans to control the obesity crisis.
The NHS (National Health Service) spends more than £6 billion a year treating obesity-related ill health. The government says that children in the poorest parts of the country are more than twice as likely to be obese as their peers in the wealthiest areas. Kerry Cavanaugh, Mars Wrigley UK Marketing Director, said: “Triple Treat does exactly what it says on the tin-it’s packed with a trio of fruit, nuts and our iconic chocolate, and is delightfully delicious to boot. At Mars Wrigley, we’re thrilled that Brits can now enjoy a great tasting-and health-friendly-Galaxy, Mars, Snickers and Bounty treat. Per 100g, the new Mars will contain 37 per cent less fat, 30 per cent less sugar and 55 per cent less salt than the original bar. Mars has developed the range over the past 18 months to ensure that it can continue placing its chocolate snacks in prominent locations in stores.”
Other candy and chocolate giants have struggled to make products that are in accordance with the government’s new rules. In 2019 Mondelez released Cadbury Dairy Milk with 30 per cent less sugar yet learnt that it was still in trouble when the criteria were confirmed two years later.
【1】What do we know about the new Mars bars?
A．They are sold at an unacceptable price.
B．They will be available in three versions.
C．They can be bought in most supermarkets.
D．They feature lower calories and smaller size.
【2】What’s the purpose of the government’s new rules?
A．To crack clown on illegal snacks.
B．To ease the obesity crisis.
C．To raise money for poor children.
D．To treat obesity-related illnesses.
【3】What does Kerry Cavanaugh probably agree with?
A．The New Mars are both tasty and healthy.
B．Britons will be disappointed at the new Mars.
C．Mars bars are reinvented as sugar-free snacks.
D．Restrictions on chocolate bars should be lifted.
【4】What does the author want to show by mentioning Mondelez?
A．The new rules require further tightening up.
B．Businesses are slow to respond to the new rules.
C．The new rules have hardly benefited snack producers.
D．Businesses have had a hard time adjusting to the new rules.

26、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
On a cold windy day, a poor boy tried to pay his way through school by selling goods door to door. Wandering on the street, he was not a successful seller. What’s worse, he found that he only had one dime（一角硬币） left. His empty stomach reminded him constantly that for days he hadn’t eaten anything. He had no choice but to beg for a meal at the next house. Hesitantly he knocked at door, thinking about what to say when it opened. However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. “What can I do for you?” asked the young woman. The boy paused for a while “Would you please give me some … a drink of water?” the boy dare not to look directly into her eyes. She looked at the bony boy and thought he might need something to give him energy so she brought him a glass of milk. His head rising and small hands taking the cup, he drank it up slowly, and then asked, “How much do I owe you?”“You don’t owe me anything,” she replied with a warm smile on her face. “My mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness.” Deeply moved, he said sincerely, “Then I shall thank you from the bottom of my heart.”As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but it also increased his faith in God and the whole human race. As a matter of fact, he was about to give up and quit before that point.
Years later the young woman became critically ill. However, the local doctors were unable to give the effective medical treatment. Finally they sent her to a hospital in the big city, where specialists can be called in to cure her rare disease. Among those famous specialists, Dr. Howard Kelly was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Immediately, he rose and went down through the hospital hall into her room.
