26、 Chinese Ministry of Education (教育部) is changing its traditional policy of encouraging schools to give special admission (入学) opportunities to those students with special talents in sports, music and art, even though their grades didn’t reach the standard.
The policy was flawed because some parents expose their not-so-talented child to plenty of expensive and demanding training courses in order to improve their child’s slim chances of approaching a good school. And then there was the problem of corruption (贪污腐败), which means some local officials selling the talent certificates (证书) and medals to those ambitious parents. According to a press conference held by the Ministry of Education in March, 2018, the “special talent” policy is expected to be completely called off by 2020.
Although the policy is ending, it should not imply that students should give up developing their talents and interests. These extracurricular (课外的) activities may not have a direct effect on academic performance, but they are ways for students to begin building a “talent stack” that will help them in their future careers.
The idea of a “talent stack” comes from the American cartoonist Scott Adams. According to Adams, people shouldn’t focus on the goal of becoming the best at something because very few people are actually the best. There are not many Michael Jordans or Albert Einsteins. Instead, people should cultivate a variety of skills that work well together.
Jack Ma (马云) is a typical example of what Adams is talking about. Ma liked English and became an English teacher. He learned some business skills by operating an English language training school. He also had an interest in computers. On a visit to the United States, he discovered the internet and the way it was being used to buy and sell things. Although Ma wasn’t the best English speaker or a computer expert, he was able to “stack” them —to put them together—to learn about internet trading and then start Alibaba, the world’s largest online trading website.
Although you may not realize it, you have already begun building your talent stack by learning English. If you have other interests like art and sports, you should continue to develop them. They will add to your talent stack and give you an advantage in the job market. Your unique set of skills, even if you may not be the best at any of them, may also lead you into new careers you may not have previously considered. Having a talent may no longer give students a shortcut in getting into a good school, but developing that talent will have long-term benefits as part of your “talent stack.”
【1】What does the word “flawed” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.perfect. B.complicated. C.imperfect. D.pointless.
【2】Which of the following statements about the “talent stack” is NOT true?
A.It was carried out by an American cartoonist.
B.Michael Jordan and Albert Einstein has one of the best talent stacks in the world.
C.Studying a foreign language is an effective way to build one’s “talent stack”.
D.The power of talent stacks may be beyond your imagination.
【3】Why does the author take Jack Ma’s personal experience as an example?
A.To prove that Jack Ma is good at running a business.
B.To show that one’s “talent stack” has nothing to do with his academic performance.
C.To tell the readers that mastering English is the most efficient means to build one’s “talent stack”.
D.To point out that “talent stack” can helps a person take advantage of benefits from different professional fields.
【4】What can we infer(推断) from the article?
A.Students with special talents will have fewer opportunities to study in good schools in two years.
B.Having talents and interests doesn’t help a student’s academic performance at all.
C.Developing a talent in sports, music or art is certain to cost a lot of money.
D.The author holds a negative attitude towards the newly-launched policy.
27、 The Indian movie Dangal(摔跤吧！爸爸) has become a huge hit in China. It has earned almost $170 million in China since its release there on May 5.
Much has been written about why Dangal has enjoyed such big success in China. Some people say one reason is the film’s star and producer, Aamir Khan. He is famous in India’s Bollywood film industry. Two of his earlier films were also big hits in China. But he is not the only reason. Media has pointed out how it shows similarities between parental systems in China and India.
Dangal is based on the true story of a man who enjoyed the sport of wrestling(摔跤). He competedas a wrestler, but never could realize his lifelong dream: winning a gold medal. As a father, he wanted his son to win the medal. But his wife only gave birth to daughters. So he finally decided to train them to be world-class wrestlers.
The movie is more serious than most Bollywood productions, which tell happy love stories and include colorful music and dance performances.
Edward Chan, a professor, says the strict way of parenting in the film is something people in China can easily relate to. “I think the father’s role described by the movie in India is quite similar to the culture, especially the traditional culture in China.”
The Chinese government-supported Global Times newspaper pointed that movie critics(评论家) in China did not like Dangal. Most of them agreed with the fact that the father in the film was forcing his daughters to become wrestlers. But the film Dangal is really aimed to educate children to work for their dreams.
【1】What can we learn from the text?
A.Most films from Bollywood are serious.
B.Daughters perform worse in the sport than sons.
C.Indian parents’ roles are similar to those in China in some way.
D.The films produced by Aamir Khan are not popular with Chinese.
【2】What’s the main reason for the father teaching his daughters to wrestle?
A.He loved them very much. B.He wanted to punish them.
C.Few women took this sport. D.He wanted them to realize his goal.
【3】What do most Chinese movie critics agree?
A.The truth of the whole story is doubtful.
B.The father’s behavior in the film Dangal is cruel.
C.Indian films often have a bad influence on Chinese parents.
D.The film Dangal is against the Indian traditional culture.
【4】What does the author think of Dangal?
A.It’s unknown. B.It’s educational. C.It’s unsuccessful. D.It’s relaxing.
28、In March 2020, 16 wild Asian elephants left their natural habitat in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan. They then headed north and returned home in September 2021. 【1】 Short videos on social media platforms offered people the most up-to-date information on the herd’s (兽群的) movements.
Unlike the online viewership, the Yunnan Provincial Government remained on edge. 【2】 Therefore, the provincial authorities established a new headquarters including forestry and grassland,emergency management, and public security personnel to organize a flood of human and material resources to track the elephants 24/7. Members helped with choosing safer routes or better timing and avoided having the animals crash into heavily populated areas by applying soft and flexible methods, like leaving food for them along the desired route.
【3】 But the staffs work would continue back at headquarters as they were in charge of predicting where the brave visors would head the next day and design their plans.
【4】 As local governments released news of their incoming well in advance, families would hide on the rooftops or squat down in the safety zone to watch from afar. Some villagers even brought corn to the headquarters, worried the elephants didn’t have enough to eat. Upon uncovering open farming fields, the wild animals would rush in and dive into a food fest. 【5】
Although scientists and officials have yet not discovered the reasons for the move, the 500-day round trip showed the importance both the Chinese government and people attach to wildlife, environment and biodiversity conservation.
A．But this never seemed to bother the residents.
B．The trip covered a distance of over 1,300 km.
C．The elephants caused trouble to the local people by destroying the fields.
D．The elephants would get on their way at 6-7 p.m. and sleep during the day.
E．As the elephants closed in, the local people would get both excited and curious.
F．Wild elephants are sensitive and can be ready to attack when they feel threatened.
G．The government has the responsibility to protect the endangered elephants from dying out.
29、 As a child, I was really afraid of the dark and of getting lost. These fears were very real and caused me some uncomfortable moments. Maybe it was the strange way things looked and sounded in my own room at night that scared me so much. There was never complete darkness, but always a streetlight or passing car lights, which made clothes on the back of a chair take on the shape of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the curtains seem to move when there was no wind. A very low sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the day. My imagination would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would lie very still so that the “enemy” would not discover me.
Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, especially on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home. That was no problem. After school, though, when all the buses were lined up along the street, I was afraid that I would get in the wrong one and be taken to some other strange places. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn’t let the leaders out of my sight.
Perhaps one of the worst fears of all I had as a child was that of not being liked or accepted by others. Being popular was so important to me then, and the fear of not being liked was a serious one.
One of the processes growing up is being able to realize and overcome our fears. Understanding the things that scared us as children helps us achieve greater success later in life.
【1】The author had _______ kind(s) of fears when she was a child.
A.One B.two C.three D.none

【3】When she went to some other places, she would _______.

C.follow others closely D.make sure not to take a wrong bus
【4】Which of the following would be possibly true when she was a child______.
A.She thought being popular among people was important.
B.She was always the leader of the others.
C.She always got poor grades.
D.She was not liked by others at all.
30、A Good Heart to Lean (倚靠) On
More than I realized, Dad has helped me keep my balance.
When I was young, I didn’t want to be seen with my father. He was short and crippled (瘸), and when we _________ together, his hand on my arm for balance, people would look at us. It was _________ to coordinate (协调) our steps, and we didn’t _________ much as we went along, just keeping silent _________ as we started out, he always said, “You set the pace (步伐). I will try to stay with you.”
In my memory, my father went to work every day, rain or shine. He almost never _________ a day, even if others could not. Meanwhile he had to _________ the unkind laughter from others. When I think of it now, I am surprised at how much _________ it must have taken him to make a living under such _________. Although disabled, my father still tried to take part in activities in his own way. When a baseball team didn’t have a manager，he kept it _________. He was a knowledgeable baseball fan and often took me to the __________. He also liked to go to parties, where he could have a good time __________ sitting and watching.
I now __________ that he took part in some things through me, his only son. He __________ me all the time. When I played ball, he “played” too. When I joined the Navy, he “joined” too. He was __________ to spend all his time staying with me.
He never talked about himself as an object of __________, nor did he show any envy (嫉妒) of the more fortunate. What he __________ in others was a “good heart’’, and if he found one, the owner was good enough for him. Now that I am older, I believe that is a proper rule by which to __________ people, even though I still don’t know exactly what a “good heart” is. Sometimes I wonder if he __________ my unwillingness during our walks. If he did, I am sorry I never told him how sorry I was, and how I __________ it. At such times I would put my hand on his arm to get my __________, and say, “You set the pace. I will try to stay with you.”
