22、Whatever it is that you may stuff your camping bag with, a good knife is an unavoidable tool. 【1】Clearing up the campground or skinning the hunt, chopping wood for fire or removing the branches over your tent are just some of them. Although not a multi-tool, a good camping knife often comes with a smooth blade （刀片）that is designed to last and can be used in various situations.【2】
Sharpness comes first.
A sharp blade comes in handy for different campsite activities. 【3】A large and sharp blade can also come to use for your survival when attacked by a big wild animal, like a bear.
【4】
When out in the remote wilderness, it's advisable to use a knife that is strong and won't break when cutting or chopping hard materials. A knife made of carbon steel or stainless steel material is the most reliable when it comes to camping knives put to use in different survival situations.
Weight stands out among others.
【5】You should first give a good thought to how you intend to use the knife. If you're planning to use the knife primarily on hard surfaces, like wood or potatoes, then a heavy-weight knife will suit your needs. For other softer materials, a light-weight knife is a better option. It also depends on personal preference to use a heavy knife or a lighter type.

B．The heavier, the better.
C．Be particular about materials.

23、They say there is power in names and nowhere is that truer than China, where Chinese characters often carry a deep significance. For any brand planning to enter the Chinese market, choosing the right Chinese name is usually a top priority.
In choosing their Chinese name, brands should consider something that is memorable, easy to pronounce and with no negative meaning in the multiple Chinese dialects, and that conveys a sense of the brand’s DNA. This can be a challenge for luxury fashion houses, as their name often comes with its own heritage(传统) and meaning. However, they also have the advantage that they may enjoy a certain degree of brand recognition in China.
Brands have three main options when it comes to choosing a Chinese name. The majority choose a simple transliteration(音译), choosing a series of characters with sounds that are closely similar to the pronunciation of the brand’s original name. For example, Dior’s Chinese name is“迪奥”(di’ao).The two characters, while meaningless in combination, respectively mean “to enlighten” and “mysterious”, a smart choice for this brand.
Since more and more Chinese people are travelling abroad and they tend to pick up a short form, for instance, LV for Louis Vuitton, brands might wonder whether it is even necessary to spend considerable time and energy coming up with an official Chinese name. Nevertheless, most marketers still advise that brands select an official Chinese name. “Although brands only use their English name on their shop front, they still need a Chinese name, as their customers, sales assistants and floor managers usually won’t use the English name,” argues Louis Houdart, CEO of China-based branding agency Creative Capital.
Houdart adds that it is important for brands to establish and popularize their Chinese name, otherwise they might run the risk of customers’ coming up with their own understanding and pronunciation, messing their brand’s image and leaving it open to copyright infringement(侵权).
【1】What’s the bright side for luxury fashion houses while choosing a Chinese name?
A．It’s possible for those brands to be recognized by Chinese customers.
B．It’s lucky to decide a Chinese name that can be accepted by Chinese consumers.
C．It’s easy for them to contain their heritage and meaning in their Chinese name.
D．It’s unnecessary for those brands to spend energy choosing a proper Chinese name.
【2】What is the best choice for the brand “BVLGARI” according to the passage?
A．Giving the name a short form “BV”.
B．Translating the name into宝格丽.
C．Ignoring Chinese customers’ demand.
D．Sticking to the English name.
【3】Which of the following most probably agrees with Houdart’s argument?
A．Diane Von Furstenberg is usually referred to as “DVF” instead of a Chinese name.
B．It is essential for brands to set up their Chinese name and make it understandable.
C．Louis Vuitton has never meant to come up with an official Chinese name so far.
D．Chinese consumers get fairly used to pronouncing those brand’s names in English.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A．Behind the Right Chinese Name
B．The Influence of Famous Brands
C．The Power of Brand Recognition
D．The History of Famous Brands
24、Dear Mum,
You didn't carry me inside you,or give birth to me. Yet our connection as mother and daughter is just as deep,maybe even deeper,as it would have been if we'd had a physical connection.
Even though I’m in my twenties now,we still celebrate my "special day" every June; the anniversary of the date that I legally became your daughter,and was brought from my home to live with you and.Dad.It's a date that I never want to forget, because it marked the beginning of our lives together as a family.
I was just nine weeks old when I was given up by my birth mother. I don't know much about her,only that she wanted me to grow up in a proper family, with a better life than she could give me.I'm certain that I've had every opportunity in life that my birth mother would have dreamed for me. You paid for me to go to a private school, and encouraged me to study hard and to go on to university.When I was a teenager. You were my taxi driver, encouraging me to diving competitions and cheering me on from the sidelines.
Every year we took family holidays.As an only child, because you and Dad understandably didn't want to put yourselves through the difficult adoption process again, I was always spoiled with toys, and so much attention.
Probably the greatest gift that you've ever given me was to feel proud about being adopted. It was never kept a secret in our house and you were always very open about how I’d come to be your daughter.
You're my mother in all the ways that really matter, Mum. When I'm stressed with work, or heartbroken over a failed relationship.It's you I call. When I'm sick, you'll drive to my flat to look after me, when I have something to celebrate, we'll go out together. You're my best friend,Mum.
Love, Hannah

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
The five children in Larrane Leech’s day care group were outdoors early, painting landscapes under the dizzy sun. By 10 a. m., it was time to find shade, so Larrane decided they would walk down to the river.
“We’re going to pick berries now, ” she announced. A nature lover, Larrane insisted they spend as much time as possible outdoors.
Larrane handed each child an empty jar and called for Pal, her one-year-old German shepherd (德国牧羊犬). The group made its way over the dusty road and then onto a dirt path through the trees. They stopped at the first berry bush and got busy picking berries, cheering and talking excitedly.
A young cougar (美洲狮)cocked an ear toward the birdlike chatter and sniffed the air. Stepping over the thick carpet of pine needles, the cougar moved quietly toward the children.
Larrane sensed the children suddenly go quiet. She looked up to see the back end of a cougar, the size of Pal, standing over one child, Mikey. The sight of the cougar near her kids immediately froze Larrane. Larrane couldn’t tell whether Mikey had been bitten. Her mind racing wildly, she darted toward the cougar. Desperately intending to grab its tail, she shifted aim at the last minute and seized the cougar by the neck. She shook it from side to side. Instantly, the cougar wheeled toward Larrane. Growling and hissing, it stretched up high and brought its paws down upon the head of the woman. Although still in its youth, it had all the teeth and muscle a cougar needs to pull down a victim three times its size. This animal was capable of killing her.
注意:1 .续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Now aware of the danger, the other four children screamed and ran behind Larrane.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Larrane rushed to Mikey, who lay quietly on the ground.
