21、Even after his death, Mitchell Whisenhunt has found a way to surprise and bring comfort to his wife and young daughter, with some letters he designated to be opened on certain dates.
Mitchell lost his battle with Marfan syndrome at 26. The rare genetic disorder affects the body’s connective tissue, which is used to hold together organs, cells and tissue.
Ashley Whisenhunt, 22, cared for her husband until his death but said she was astonished when she discovered the 30 letters he left for her, their 18-month-old daughter Brynleigh and the community.
The little girl will grow up with a letter every year from her second to 18th birthday from a man she didn’t get to spend much time with but who left no doubt that he loved her unconditionally. “Through his testimony, there is so much she is going to learn,” Ashley told ABC News.
One letter was also addressed to their Longview, Texas, community, thanking them for their support.
“It just blows my mind,” Ashley said of her husband’s secret gesture. “He thought about everybody else instead of himself.”
Ashley said she would respect her husband’s wishes and open each letter as he planned, however there was one special surprise left for her that she said hit her the hardest.
In a spiral notebook that Ashley used before she dropped out of college to care for her husband, he wrote a letter to her asking that she publish a book of poetry he had written.
Mitchell Whisenhunt even planned his own funeral, and the funeral director said he couldn’t tell Ashley because it was Mitchell’s plan and secret. Ashley said she couldn’t help but wonder what other surprises her husband had in store. “There are ones we still don’t know about it,” she said.

22、 Being a teenager is no cakewalk. Like the characters in these books, teens might also be mourning a first big loss, getting a handle on shifting mental health, or feeling isolated from peers. These inspiring books help them promote positive thinking.
10 Things I Can See from Here by Carrie Mac
Maeve experiences severe anxiety, so much of her headspace is devoted to imagining worst-case scenes. Her troubles are worsened when she’s sent to live with her dad (an alcoholic), pregnant stepmom, and twin stepbrothers in Vancouver — a situation with a whole new set of stressors. Maeve has a lot on her plate, but she’s also determined to show up for the people in her life.
Dancing at the Pity Party by Tyler Feder
Tyler Feder was in college when she lost her mother to cancer. In this bittersweet memoir, Feder celebrates her mother’s life and also recounts the long and ongoing journey of grief — from the first physician appointments to sitting the funeral — and trying to create some resemblance among peers who just didn’t get it. Sincere and often humorous, Feder’s perspective is related to teens who’ve experienced grief and valuable for anyone navigating a difficult experience.

Born to a white father and black mother (a union punishable by law), Noah was kept mostly hidden indoors during his early childhood. How the future Daily Show host maintained his wisdom and adaptability in a country enduring the aftershocks of colonialism and survived typical teen dangers of, say, dating in high school — are the subject of this celebrated bestseller.

23、 A new study released on Monday showed that 2019 was another year of record-setting ocean warming. An international team examined data going back to-the1950s, looking at temperatures from the ocean surface to 2,000 meters deep. The study, which was published in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, also showed that the oceans are warming at an increasing speed and the hottest five years ever recorded all came in the last five. “The upward trend is relentless(不间断的), and so we dare say that most of the warming is man-made climate change.” said Kevin Trenberth, a distinguished senior scientist.
Another scientist, Lijing Cheng, the paper’s lead author said there are no reasonable alternatives apart from the human emissions of heat trapping gases to explain this heating, “The Hiroshima atom-bomb (广岛原子弹) exploded with an energy of about 63,000,000,000,000 Joules.”(63万亿焦耳热量) Cheng Said. "I did a calculation...the amount of heat we have put in the world's oceans in the past 25 years equals to 3.6 billion Hiroshima atom-bomb explosions,"he added. That's equivalent to dropping roughly four Hiroshima bombs into the oceans every second over the past quarter of a century. But because the warming is speeding up, the rate at which we are dropping these imaginary bombs is getting faster than ever.
Oceans serve as a good indicator of the real impact of climate change. Covering almost three quarters of Earth's surface, they absorb the vast majority of the world's heat. Since 1970, more than 90% of the planet’s excess heat went into the oceans, while less than 4% was absorbed by the atmosphere and the land, the study said. However, just because people live on land,it doesn't mean they are immune from the effects of the warming waters. Ocean warming has a profound impact on the entire world.
【1】What is to blame for ocean warming according to Kevin Trenberth?
A．Atomic bombs.
B．Land reduction.
C．Human activities.
D．Environmental damage.
【2】What can we learn according to the text?
A．Land an absorb more heat than oceans by the study.
B．The temperature of oceans has been increasing rapidly recently.
C．Kevin and Cheng have different opinions on ocean warming.
D．Cheng found other reasons besides human emissions for ocean warming.
【3】What can we infer from the underlined sentence?
A．Ocean warming has becoming a concern of the world.
B．The change of the oceans has great effect on people.
C．People live on land so they're not influenced by oceans.
D．People have to move to oceans because of limited land.
【4】What is the author's purpose in writing the text?
A．To call on people to protect the environment.
B．To show people a new study published recently.
C．To prove the atomic bombs can cause great damage.
D．To make people realize the ocean warning is speeding.
24、 This summer, a cave in Central Europe got a lot of attention when it became home to more than two dozen baby dragons. These animals are actually called olms (洞螈) which look like dragons.
A female olm might lay eggs just once every six years. Excitement over the possibility of new babies started in January, when the first egg was spotted deep within the Postojna Cave in Slovenia. In the end, with the help of scientists, 22 olms were born between May 30 and July 14. They are now growing into healthy teenage dragons.
Olms live in underwater limestone caves in Central Europe. These caves are difficult to reach, so scientists don’ t often get to observe olms in their natural habitat.
Olms, which can grow to be up to 16 inches long, are one of the largest cave animals in the world. They have pale skin and long snouts and their tiny eyes are fully covered with skin.
No natural light reaches these deep caves, so many animals that live there cannot see. But olms use their incredible senses of smell and hearing to hunt worms, crabs, and snails. Olms can also survive without food for long periods of time, even as long as 10 years.
When a female olm laid 64 eggs in the Postojna Cave last winter, scientists thought that only two or three of them would survive. In the wild, only about two baby olms successfully hatch from 500 eggs. The last time a female olm laid eggs at the Postojna Cave, none of the eggs hatched. So this time, scientists worked very hard to care for the olm eggs and watched over them as they grew. About one-third of the 64 baby olms survived, and they appear to be doing well.
Scientists are hopeful about the babies’ future. Although baby olms don’ t eat for the first couple of months, by August three of the oldest babies were eating worms. That was an important step in their development.
“We will keep doing everything we possibly can to ensure the olms’ well-being,” a press statement for the team stated.
【1】What can we learn about the birth of the olms found in the Postojna Cave this year?
A.It is an extremely rare event. B.It proves dragons really exist.
C.It needs more public attention. D.It means a new-found species.
【2】What is a characteristic of olms?
A.They prefer living in dry environments. B.They have a poor sense of hearing.
C.They can live up to 10 years. D.They are born blind.
【3】What do the numbers in Paragraph 6 show?
A.Olms can’ t live without scientists’ help.
B.The birth rate of olms is usually very low.
C.Olms usually face hard living surroundings.
D.Fewer and fewer female olms lay eggs now.
【4】How old were the oldest baby olms when they began to eat this summer?
A.Less than one month old. B.Over two months old.
C.Nearly twelve months old. D.About eight months old.

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。
There are a number of volunteer organizations out there that deal in things like clothing donation and the sale of used books. Retired schoolteacher Cathy has been a member of such an organization, VNSA, since 2012. Her duties involve working throughout the year to help prepare the books for their February sale and acting as personnel manager for the sale. That means she helps coordinate (协调) all the other volunteers who help out before, during, and after the event.
It was before the 2019 book sale and Cathy once again found herself sitting among a towering pile of books and sorting through them to ensure that they would be in good enough condition to resell. As she was sorting, she came upon a book, wrinkled and broken. Though she didn’t like doing it, the only remaining choice for her was to throw it away.
A greedy book lover herself, Cathy felt guilty about throwing away any book. Before she threw it away, she decided to check for more serious damage inside that might justify her giving it up. She opened the cover and went through the pages when she noticed something unusual.
Going through the pages, Cathy was surprised to see that a part had been hollowed out (挖空)inside the book. Obviously, something was hidden in that rather expertly hollowed space. She looked down and saw that the book’s previous owner had hidden four packages in the space, each containing ten $100 bills. Cathy’s first thought was that the bills were toy money that perhaps a kid had hidden inside as part of some childish game or something.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请在答题卡的相应位置作答。
But Cathy soon realized that these were real $100 bills.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Luckily for Cathy, the book also contained the name of the book owner.
