27、 “We give our girls the power (力量) to believe in themselves, go to college, and become tomorrow’s leaders,” says Felicia Gibson Jaycox, the founder (创立者) and chief executive officer of The Power of You Teens (POYT). The organization is based in Harlem, a historic African-American neighborhood in New York City.
Founded in 2014, POYT offers educational chances and positive role models for teenage girls growing up in Harlem. These “Power Girls” take part in dance, summer camp, and STEAM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics), among other programs. The purpose, according to the group, is to empower teenage girls to help them “dream big and to inspire them to achieve the most that they are capable of.”
POYT held its sixth yearly Empowerment Event in the fall of 2019 in New York City. The theme of “Girl Boss” encouraged girls to show their inner boss spirit. Miss Teen USA Kaliegh Garris was the keynote speaker.
Kaliegh said that she and other beauty competition winners are helping to reshape traditional images of beauty and showing that women of color are not just beautiful — they also are driven, wise women whom little girls can look up to.
I asked Ashley McFarlin Buie, POYT co-director, what inspired founder and CEO Felicia Gibson to start the organization. Gibson saw the plight that girls of color are in. For some historical reasons, many girls of color are growing up in terrible neighborhoods. They seldom see people like themselves showed positively in movies, books, TV shows, and other media.
“Powerful girls grow up to be dependable and confident women, preparing for their futures as creative leaders,” Buie said. POYT centers on saving the mind, body, and spirit of Black girls through love and support, she added.
What do the girls get out of the group? “We offer chances,” Buie said, “to break barriers (屏障).”
【1】What do we know about POYT?
A.It is run by teenage girls.
B.It was started about 6 years ago.
C.It provides services all around America.
D.It was first started in African-American neighborhoods .
【2】What did the 2019 Empowerment Event mainly want to do?
A.Speak for women of color.
B.Change people’s traditional ideas of beauty.
C.Call on girls to be positive role models.
D.Encourage girls to go into business in the future.
【3】What does the underlined word “plight” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A.Sad feeling. B.Difficult task.
C.Bad situation. D.Uncertain future.
【4】What is the best title for this text ?
A.Dream big B.Power Girls
C.Teenage Power D.Breaking barriers
28、Now many young people are traveling around the world on their own, not because they have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go alone.
Kristina Wegscheider from California first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life. “It opens up your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone.” Wegscheider has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.
In foreign countries, with no one to help you read a map, look after you if you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen, it is challenging. This is what drives young people to travel alone. It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.
Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He says he wished he had traveled alone earlier. “The people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person,” said the 30-year-old man.
Richardson describes traveling alone like “a shot in the arm”, which “makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything”. He said, “The feeling of having overcome something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I’m dealing with a difficult task. I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”
The great 19thcentury explorer John Muir once said, “Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.”
【1】Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with?
A. Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.
B. It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.
C. It is comfortable to travel around without a friend.
D. Traveling abroad helps people to find new things.
【2】Traveling alone is challenging because ________.
A. you have to make things on your own
B. it is hard for you to prove yourself to others
C. you can only depend on yourself whatever happens
D. it will finally build your character
【3】What can we infer about Chris Richardson?
A. He started traveling alone at an early age.
B. He was once shot in the arm.
C. He used to work as a salesman.
D. His website inspires others a lot.
【4】What is the best title for the passage?
A. Travel Abroad B. Travel Alone
C. Travel Light D. Travel Wide and Far
29、Technology is changing our lives. Our present aerospace (航天航空)companies are gradually disappearing as private space concerns are being born every day. I'm going to discuss three spacebased businesses that are sure to soon influence us all.
First we have to make space travel cheaply and safely. Engine design is the main challenge. To make money in space, the cost of space travel will have to diminish(减少). This problem will be the most difficult to solve. Liquid fueled rockets are the only way to get out of Earth's orbit. Finding new ways to power the flight to space is also another big challenge.
Finding the key to cheap space travel might be the biggest story of our times. There are a lot of great minds working on this problem. And companies are pouring money into research and development. In the next few years we'll see the first suborbital tourist. And not long after that we should really start to see new and exciting things as competition heats up.
Spacecraft design and production will naturally follow rocket technology. All sorts of crafts will be needed for the wide uses they'll be tasked with. Several companies in the United States have already made small, lowcost test vehicles.
Resources in space will provide great mining profits to those who can afford the cost of setting up such a huge operation. Can you imagine finding a huge asteroid(小行星) of pure gold? The benefit to mankind is limitless. Mining on other planets, like Mars, also adds CO2 into the very thin atmosphere. Over time this can lead to the formation of an atmosphere similar to Earth's.
Space is going to offer us untold opportunity and wealth. But this is only going to occur if wealthy investors step forward and fund the first steps forward. It is certain that technology will take us to worlds we could never have imagined.
【1】The passage is mainly about ________.
A.the future of space travel
B.the cost of space travel in the future
C.the development of spacecrafts
D.cheap travel in the future
【2】What should be done first to make travel in space cheap and safe?
A.A direct route from Earth to other stars should be found.
B.Some new kinds of fuel should be used in the rockets.
C.New material should be used to build the rockets.
D.New rocket engines should be designed.
【3】According to the passage mining on other planets might help ________.
A.increase the travel benefits there
B.form the atmosphere like Earth's there
C.bring some new species there
D.create more job opportunities there
【4】According to the passage, the spacebased businesses are ________.
A.likely B.imaginary
C.unbelievable D.valuable

32、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。
When Mom said we had to give away Sam, I didn’t say a word. I just picked up Sam and walked out to the shed (棚) that used to be Dad’s workshop. What Mom said to me wasn’t a surprise. I saw it would come.
My name is Nathan. Sam was my cat. Not long before Dad died, he found Sam behind his store. No one wanted a little cat, so Dad brought him home. Sam was black, with wise eyes and big ears. But what most people noticed was his big white feet.
“Meow?” Sam knew I was upset. I wondered if I could explain to Sam about Anna. She’s my younger stepsister (继妹), and if it weren’t for her, I could keep Sam. But I didn’t explain, and Sam couldn’t understand his situation. He liked to run up and down in the shed’s dusty sunlight.
No one used the shed now except our elder neighbors, Mr. Sims and Mr. Irvin. They made wind chimes (风铃) to sell at the market. Dad used to help them. I grew up loving the sounds that filled our shed. Mom said people loved those chimes because their music was mixed with laughter.
I wondered how things were going to change now that I had a stepsister. Last week we had to take Anna to the hospital quickly. She couldn’t breathe. Mom thought it was because Sam slept in her room. Anna was allergic (过敏的) to cats. Mom told me that Sam had to be sent away. She asked me who was more important, Sam or Anna. I couldn’t answer.
“Isn’t there anything else we can do?” I asked. I looked at Sam. Sam was playing with things left over from the wind chimes. When he hit metal against metal, it rang loudly. Sam was happy. But I wasn’t.
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。
Then, I remembered Anna on the way to the hospital and her face frightened and pale.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
In the end, our neighbors Mr. Sims and Mr. Irvin took in Sam, so Sam got two homes.
