21、 My kids and I were heading into the superstore over the weekend． On the way， we saw a man covered by a blanket and holding a sign that said， "Lost my job． Family to Feed．"
At this store， a sight like this is not normal． It was obvious that the man was embarrassed， but desperate． My 10-year-old noticed him and said how bad it must be to have to stand outside in the cold wind．
While we were in the store， I asked each of the kids to pick something they thought our "friend" outside would need． They picked a couple of apples， a package of bread， a sandwich， some cheese and a bottle of juice． Then my 17-year-old asked， "Can we get him a gift card？" I thought about it． We were low on cash ourselves， but …well， sometimes giving from our "need" instead of our "abundance （充裕）" is just what we need to do! All the kids declared something they could do away with for the week．
We quickly checked out， with the foods he could eat at the moment， and a gift card for the store． At the suggestion of my 16-year-old， we also bought a hot cup of coffee， and then drove to the end of the parking lot， where our "friend" was holding his sign．
We handed him the coffee and the bag of food． He thanked us with watery eyes． When I handed him the gift card and said he could use it for whatever his family might need， he burst into tears， obviously overwhelmed and grateful．
Though I wished we could have done more， I can't help but think about how this experience has been such a wonderful opportunity for our family． The feeling of helping someone else has affected them all---they cannot stop talking about it， and for four days now have been searching for others we can help!
Things would have played out so differently if I had simply said， "No， we really don't have money to give more，" or something to that effect． Stepping out not only helped a brother in need， it also gave my kids the______ taste of helping others．
【1】Which is the right order of what happened in the story？ ______
a． The man was grateful with tears．
b． Each child picked some food for the man in the store．
c． A poor man lost his job and asked people for help．
d． All kids did away with something and gave him a gift card．
e． They saw the poor man outside the supermarket and took pity on him．
A. c-e-b-d-a
B. c-e-d-b-a
C. e-c-d-b-a
D. e-c-b-d-a
【2】What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 mean？ ______
A. giving him some food
B. giving from our abundance
C. giving from our need
D. giving him a postcard
【3】The best word could be filled in the blank in the last paragraph should be ______ ．
A. terrible
B. sweet
C. tiring

【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph？ ______

B. They had helped many people before offering this poor man help．
C. They won't help more people because they can't afford to do so．

22、China Merchants Bank Co Ltd has teamed up with ride-hailing major Didi Kuaidi to provide automobile financing and expand its reach in China's booming mobile payment industry.
The two have inked a comprehensive partnership, which includes a strategic investment by the former in the latter. Under the partnership, CMB will become the first bricks-and-mortar bank that can offer in-app credit card payments to Didi users. At present, users of Didi can only choose third-party payment solutions like WeChat Payment and Alipay to pay cab fares.
Zhao Ju, vice-president of CMB, said the cooperation with Didi was an important step in its mobile Internet finance strategy. “CMB's mobile payment is going to enter a new chapter by leveraging Didi Kuaidi's vast user base," he said.
According to a report by China Internet Network Information Center earlier this month, Didi holds 87.2 percent of China's private car hailing market. The company said it has received 1.43 billion car-hailing requests on its platforms in 2015, which means 1.43 billion payments were made via smartphones.
CMB is expected to use Didi to reach the core users of China's mobile payment market. Jean Liu, president of Didi, said many of the expats prefer payment by credit card rather than Alipay or WeChat. "The new partnership will help improve service quality and customer loyalty," she said. The investment makes CMB part of Didi's existing investors, including Tencent Holdings Ltd, Alibaba Group Holding Ltd and China Investment Corporation. Both of the companies declined to reveal the actual amount of the investment.
Liu, who showed up on Tuesday for the first time in public after her treatment for breast cancer, said the cooperation with CMB is for the long run and "the capital investment is only part of it".
Under the partnership, CMB and Didi will cooperate on a wide range of initiatives on financial services and online-to-offline cooperation. Apart from the in-app credit card payments, the two companies are going to launch joint credit cards in late February and automobile financing services for Didi's car owners. CMB's branches across China are expected to help Didi recruit more drivers.
"There is a lot of room for imagination in our partnership," Li said, adding in future people may use their CMB credit card reward points to pay for the ride on Didi.
Li Chao, an analyst with iResearch Consulting Group, said the partnership may not significantly boost CMB's mobile payment business. "Didi has educated the market for three years and its customers have formed the habit of paying by WeChat or Alipay. So I think CMB can only turn a very smart proportion of Didi users into its payment customer," he said. "But the move shows that China's traditional banking industry is finally thinking out of the box and looking for outside partners in Internet finance competition," he said.
Statistics from Big-Data Research showed that more than 90 percent of China's 9.3 trillion yuan ($1.41 trillion) worth of third party mobile payment market is donated by Alibaba and Tencent.
【1】Which of the following sentences is true about Didi Kuaidi ?
A. The users of Didi can pay cab fare in cash.
B. At present, Didi holds the largest market of China's private car hailing business.
C. With several years of development, the users of Didi have abandoned the third-party payment.
D. CMB will become the most important investor of Didi.
【2】Which of the following is not the purpose of CMB’s cooperation with Didi? .
A. CMB is expected to use Didi to reach the core users of China's mobile payment market.
B. Through the cooperation with Didi, CMB will help improve service quality and customer loyalty.
C. CMB will launch joint credit cards with Didi to expand its service.
D. CMB will turn a very large proportion of Didi users into its payment customer.
【3】What can be inferred from the passage?
A. CMB's mobile payment is going to enter a new chapter.
B. China's traditional banking industry is facing fierce Internet finance competition.
C. CMB and Didi will have a online-to-offline cooperation.
D. Mobile payment market is donated by Alibaba and Tencent.

D. Alibaba and Tencent dominate the mobile payment market.
23、When I stepped into the Samcheong Park Library in Seoul, I saw the future. The simple building had a nice selection of books and a cafe where readers could enjoy coffee while gazing at the leaves outside. It was specifically designed without any latest technology.
“What’s so innovative (创新的) about that?” a librarian in Toronto asked when I showed her pictures. Innovation to her meant digital technology, like 3D printers. “Why couldn’t they both be innovative?” I asked.
We are constantly told that innovation is the most important force in our economy, without which we would be left behind. But that fear of missing out has led us to fall into the false trappings of innovation over truly innovative ideas that may be simpler and more effective. This mindset implies that if you just buy the new thing, you have innovated! Each year, businesses and individuals run around like broken toy robots, trying to figure out their strategy for the latest buzzword equipment.
At best, this is a waste of resource. Devices are bought, used and abandoned, as the technology’s capabilities fall short of its promise. But at its worst, this approach can truly cause damage. Schools cut field trips to purchase tablets with few proven benefits. Companies that applied AI into hiring have actually strengthened gender and racial prejudices.
True innovation isn’t just some magic devices. It is a continuing process of reflection and reassessment, which often means adopting “old” ideas and tools in a new context, or even returning to methods that worked in the past. Adjusted properly, these rearview (后视的) innovations have proved as transformative as novel technologies.
Look no farther than the streets of New York, which have been redesigned recently to accommodate cyclists with car-free zones. The idea isn’t new. It was created half a century ago, with the aim of bringing cities back to their residents. And while e-reader sales have been exploding, Penguin just announced it would publish tiny printed books, an ideal solution for a market demanding both convenience and physicality.
【1】Why is a librarian mentioned?
A．To set an example.
B．To cite an authority.
C．To make a prediction.
D．To present an argument.
【2】What does the underlined “buzzword” mean in Para. 3?
A．Fashionable.
B．Affordable.
C．Practical.
D．Imaginative.
【3】What does the writer agree with about innovation?
A．Innovation often leads to wasted resources and even damage.
B．Innovation is supported by new technology and magic devices.
C．Innovation reflects the progress of technology and economy.
D．Innovation is more about the way of thinking than equipment we use.
【4】What is probably the best title of the text?
A．The key to success of business—innovation
B．Future Lies in returning to the past
C．Some best ideas are in the rearview mirror
D．Innovation: an important force in economy
24、 Old Mrs. Lynn was working in the cottage, hanging the washed clothes on the line. What she wasn’t aware was that some children were hiding in a nearby tree watching her every move. They were sure that she was a witch and wanted to find the evidence.
They watched nervously as she took a broomstick to sweep the dirt from her stone steps. But much to their disappointment, she didn’t get on the broomstick and fly off. The old lady only looked up when her hen began to make sounds loudly — signaling that she had laid an egg in the nest on the top of the haystack. (干草堆).
The old lady put aside her broomstick and walked to the haystack, followed by Michael, a black cat she had rescued from a fox trap. With only three legs, it was hard for Michael to keep up with his mistress. The cat was proof for the children that only a witch would own a black cat with three legs! Accidentally, she tripped and crashed to the ground. The children were in horror.
“Should we go and help her?” asked Mia.
“What if it’s a trick?” replied Patrick. “She probably knows we’re here. Witches know things like that!”
After thinking for a while, Julia said, “Anyway, we should go and check whether she is all right.”
Approaching prudently, they could see a wound on the old lady’s forehead. She had knocked her head on a stone and was unconscious.
“Go and get Dad,” Mia yelled to her brothers. “Tell him about the accident.”
Later, in the hospital, the old lady smiled her thanks. “I was so lucky that you lovely children happened to be passing when I fell. I must have yelled quite loudly.” The children exchanged guilty glances, but were very pleased that she was not a witch after all!
