21、The Arctic，Atlantic, Indian and Pacific are the four oceans we learned about in the geography class. But now we have a new one. On World Oceans Day, which was on June 8, 2021， the US National Geographic Society announced it would recognize the Southern Ocean in Antarctica, bringing the global total to five.
Unlike the Arctic，Atlantic ，Indian and Pacific Oceans, which are defined by the continents that bound them, the Southern Ocean is instead characterized by the currents circling Antarctica. According to National Geographic，the Southern Ocean includes most of the waters surrounding Antarctica out to 60 degrees south latitude.
“Surrounded by the swift currents， it is the only ocean to touch three other oceans and to completely embrace a continent rather than being embraced by them," Sylvia Earle, US marine biologist and oceanographer (海洋学家)，told The Daily Mail.
“Anyone who has been there will struggle to explain what's so amazing about it, but they'll all agree that the glaciers are bluer, the air colder, the mountains more spectacular (壮观的) and the landscapes more appealing than anywhere else they can go," Seth Sykora-Bodie, a marine scientist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration，told National Geographic.
Due to the ecologically unique environment of the Southern Ocean, it's home to thousands of rare species. The ocean also has wider ecological effects. National Geographic hopes their revised maps will bring public awareness to the region, thereby encouraging the Southern Ocean conservation.
“We think it's really important from an educational standpoint, as well as from a map-labeling standpoint, to bring attention to the Southern Ocean as a fifth ocean." Alex Tait，National Geographic Society geographer, told The Post. “ So when students learn about it, they learn it's an interconnected ocean，and there are these regions called oceans that are really important."
【1】How is the Southern Ocean defined?
A．By the location and latitude.
B．By the size and depth of water.
C．By the continents that divide it.
D．By the currents around the pole.
【2】What can we learn about the Southern Ocean from Seth Sykora-Bodie?
A．The scenery is more attractive than other parts of the world.
B．There's a special ocean in the icy waters around Antarctica.
C．It is an ocean to connect three oceans and one continent.
D．It is unlike any other oceans with many unique species.
【3】Why did National Geographic revise the map?
A．To promote the sales of maps.
B．To arouse the public's curiosity.
C．To protect the Southern Ocean.
D．To update people's geographic knowledge.
【4】What is the best title for this passage?
A．Antarctica Is Full of Attraction
B．The US Announced a New Ocean
C．Ocean Conservation Is On the Road
D．The Public Are Crazy about a New Ocean
22、Directions：Read the following three passages．Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements．For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D．Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
Friends and fellow citizens：I stand before you tonight under accusation of the unproven crime of having voted at the last presidential election, without having a lawful right to vote．It shall be my work this evening to prove to you that in thus voting, I not only committed no crime, but, instead, simply exercised my citizen's rights, guaranteed to me and all United States citizens by the National Constitution(宪法), beyond the power of any state to deny.
Our democratic-republican government is based on the idea of the natural right of every individual member to a voice and a vote in making and executing the laws．We declare the duty of government to be to secure the people in the enjoyment of their unchallengeable right．We throw to the winds the belief that government can give right.
‘All men are created equal, and gifted by their Creator with certain undeniable rights．Among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness．To secure these, governments are established among men, gaining their just powers from the agreement of the governed.’
Here is no shadow of government authority over rights, or exclusion of any class from their full and equal enjoyment．Here is pronounced the right of all men, and ‘therefore,’ as the Quaker minister said, ‘of all women,’ to a voice in the government．And here, in this first paragraph of the Declaration, is the declaration of the natural right of all to the vote; for how can ‘the agreement of the governed’ be given, if the right to vote be denied?
The introduction of the Federal(联邦的) Constitution says: ‘We, the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic peacefulness, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity(子嗣), do establish this Constitution for the United States of America.’
It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; not we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union．And we formed it, not to give the blessings of liberty, but to secure them; not to the half of ourselves and the half of our posterity, but to the whole people - women as well as men．And it is absolute ridicule to talk to women of their enjoyment of the blessings of liberty while they are denied the use of the only means of securing them provided by this democratic-republican government - the vote.
【1】The speaker was standing in front of the audience to ________.
A． accuse the government of having denied treating her unfairly
B． fight for the legal right to vote in the United States as a woman
C． share a recent victory on voting for the president of the States
D． guarantee that they could better understand the National Constitution
【2】The expression ‘throw to the winds’ (Paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to ‘________’.
A． abandon
B． emphasize
C． shake
D． spread
【3】Which of the following statements is true according to the speech?
A． The Quaker minister holds conflicting opinions on women’s right to vote．
B． Government authority has the right to bar some of the governed out of liberty.
C． The policy is undeniably adopted that all the governed in America have the equal rights．
D． There’s no way to the real agreement of the governed if women’s vote right is robbed.
【4】It can be inferred from the speech that ________.
A． it’s more important to have liberty than have good wishes of it
B． the Federal Constitution comes from the National Constitution
C． it’s ridiculous that women enjoy liberty while their rights are not secured
D． racial and gender issues are among the major social problems of the USA
【5】Which of the following might be the best title of the speech?
A． For the Sake of Liberty and Happiness
B． Vote on the Women’s Rights
C． In the Name of Equal Right to vote
D． Power of American Constitution
23、This year’s flu season is shaping up to be a bad one. The new type of flu virus is more severe than most. In addition many people find the vaccine this year to be less effective, and others are wondering if they should still get a flu shot. The answer is yes.
Each summer, scientists try to make a best guess on which variants (变体) are going to be more common in the coming year. They look at data from other countries, and then they make the shot to match.
Sometimes a vaccine doesn’t work well because some variants change too much. That’s why in any year, even when you’re vaccinated, you can get the flu. The shot is about reducing your risk, not getting rid of it.
“Less” and “more” effective are relative terms, so we need to focus more on absolute risks. In 2010, researchers published an in-depth analysis of all flu shot studies. They showed that when a vaccine was considered effective, 1.2% of vaccinated people had the flu, while 3.9% of unvaccinated people had the flu. That’s an absolute risk reduction (ARR) of 2.7 percentage points. In studies in which the flu shot was considered ineffective, 1.1% of vaccinated people had the flu compared with 2.4% of unvaccinated people. The ARR was 1.3% points.
Let’s say this year’s flu vaccine is even worse than we think. Maybe the ARR will be as low as 1 percentage point. That’s still not that bad. Given the millions who are likely to suffer from flu and the thousands of deaths each year, this is a big payoff in public health. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says that 9 million to 36 million people become ill with the flu each year in the United States. Somewhere between 140,000 and 710,000 of them require hospitalization, and 12,000 to 56,000 die each year.
No vaccine is perfectly protective in any year. But to minimize your chances of illness, yes, you should still get the flu shot this year, and any year.
【1】What is the paragraph2 mainly about?
A．Why some vaccines are ineffective.
B．Why people should get vaccines.
C．How a new vaccine is developed.
D．How people survive flu in summer.
【2】What can the ARR tell us according to the text?
A．How dangerous flu could be.
B．The risk of a vaccine.
C．How flu spreads.
D．The effectiveness of a flu vaccine.
【3】Why does the author provide the CDC’s figures?
A．To show many people suffer from serious diseases each year.
B．To show flu vaccines are sometimes ineffective.
C．To show flu is a major cause of human death.
D．To show vaccines can still save many people.
【4】What is the main purpose of the text?
A．To report a threatening type of flu virus.
B．To persuade people to receive flu vaccines.
C．To explain the spread of flu viruses.
D．To give an introduction to this year’s vaccine.
24、Reading minds may not be simple, but it might be possible actually. What if a brain scan could reveal your memories? A team of British scientists recently just did that—they used brain scans to look at spatial （空间的） memory in four people. Spatial memory is the kind of memory you use to remember where you are. You use spatial memory to remember how to get from your house to school. People build spatial memory as they explore a new city or a new building and take in information about their surroundings.
The scientists asked each participant to sit down at a computer and wander through 3D rooms. These virtual rooms contained images of objects, like clocks and doors, so that the people could know where they were. Each person was encouraged to explore the virtual space.
As the people became familiar with these rooms, their brains were taking notes of where things were, and how to get from one point to another. After observing these rooms, the participants were instructed to go to a specific location within the rooms. At this point, the scientists took pictures of the people's brains using an instrument called FMRI （核磁共振成像） .
As participants stared at the floor, the scientists took FMRI scans to measure brain activity. They repeated this process many times. After a few repetitions, the scientists recognized the patterns in the participants' brains. By looking at patterns on the brain scans, the scientists were able to read the spatial memory of the test subjects.
This experiment shows that it is possible to use FMRI to gather some kinds of memories from people. However, your secret thoughts and personal memories are safe—for now. “It is not the case that we can put someone in a brain scanner and simply read his private thoughts,” said one of the scientists who worked on the project.
【1】What can we learn about spatial memory from the first paragraph?
A．It contributes to exploring a new subject.
B．It lets you remember what has been done.
C．It helps you memorize places where you are.
D．It takes in information about new knowledge.
【2】Which of the following is the right order of the study?
a. The scientists took photos of the brains with the FMRI.
b. The scientists read the spatial memory of the participants.
c. The participants were asked to explore virtual rooms.
d. The scientists repeated the process a few times.
A．a, b, c, d
B．c, a, d, b
C．b, c, d, a
D．c, d, a, b
【3】Why are our secret mind and private memories safe?
A．Because FMRIs can’t gather any memory from people.
B．Because scientists can't understand all pictures taken by FMRIs.
C．Because FMRIs can't be completely reliable now.
D．Because scientists can't read people's thoughts directly.
【4】What does the passage mainly talk about?
A．Spatial memory and FMRIs.
B．A very important research.
C．How scientists can read people's memories.
D．A new kind of camera—FMRIs.

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。
An Act of Neighborliness
The skies were dark. A strong wind was blowing hard, cutting my face like a sharp knife. Rain fell in big drops and thunder and lightning flashed across the skies. I shook with cold and fear as I walked home, through the streams of muddy water. Some people were rushing by, completely wet in the heavy rain.
Along the way, I saw some schoolchildren holding their heavy schoolbags tightly and rushing home, I also saw that some road repair work had been abandoned by workers. Obviously, the workers had left in a hurry because of the storm. There were few signs and it was hard to see what was on the road. There were pieces of wood and metal and it looked like a hole had been dug and hurriedly covered with boards.
I moved on but suddenly stopped as I heard some sounds. It sounded like children crying. I quickly turned back and went back to the place from where the sounds came. I was frightened! To my sadness, I found that a small child had fallen into the hole on the road. The boards had moved away with the force of the rushing water. I could hardly see the child as it was dark all around me. I told he that I was going to look for help. I knew the neighbors well, and they all shared a sense of neighborliness, willing to give a hand.
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。
Actually, I was not sure of what to do or where to go but decided to go to the nearest house for help.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The parents of the child who just arrived from work were totally shocked to hear of what had happened.
