21、Would you like to live in a city where buildings turn the lights off for you, and self-driving cars will find the nearest parking space themselves? Although it might sound a little far from you, living in a “smart” city like this could happen sooner than you think.

Great changes have taken place in towns that we have lived in for centuries, while completely new cities are being built. One such place is the city of Songdo. Every home there will have a “telepresence system (远程遥控系统)” — allowing users to control the heating and locks, take part in video meetings, and receive education, health care and government services. Around the city, escalators (自动扶梯) will only move when someone is on them, and offices and schools will all be connected to the system.

The great mind behind Songdo is from the company Cisco. In fact, technology companies around the world such as IBM, Siemens and Microsoft are already in the business.

About 75% of the world’s population will live in cities by 2050, so cities will need to be more modern to deal with the coming problems. “Making cities smarter is one way out, and I think this will in turn make cities greener,” said Dan Hill, head of a research company.

【1】According to the passage, living in a “smart” city ________.

A．is not a green way

B．will be far from you

C．will soon become true

D．is completely impossible

【2】What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?

A．City of the future.

B．A meeting in Songdo.

C．A plan to build a house.

D．A report on public health.

【3】Dan Hill thinks that making cities smarter is one way to ________.

A．drive people out of cities

B．develop his own company

C．control the world’s population

D．solve the cities’ coming problems

【4】Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?

A．Future Houses

B．Smart Cities

C．Government Services

D．Famous Companies

22、I was small for my age. I was shy and it was hard for me to make friends. However, gleaming came quite easy for me. I was the best in most of my classes, but PE class was my nightmare（噩梦）.

24、阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，在文章后第1-10小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的词，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为1-10的相应位置上。注意：每个空格只填1个单词。

Hey! Mother's Day is coming. Have you planned anything good for your mom? If not, try one of these tips.

What's her favorite?

Most teens don't know what their mom's favorite is. You do? Then, what are you waiting for? Buy her something she likes and wrap it carefully. The best time to give her that is while she is sleeping at night. Put it on the drawer next to her so that when she wakes up she'll be surprised to see it.

Treat a queen

Your house is a palace with a king and queen (it doesn't matter if you're rich or poor). Our mother is the real queen in our life and in our family though her duties make her look like she is not. Give the lady a day off and you can do the housework.

Because of stress and the problems that she is facing right now, she doesn't look good any more. Perhaps you could take some of your savings to treat her in a salon or the department store. Then, choose nice clothes that would make her look beautiful!

Have some of your time

Our mothers have special memories in mind. It is the time that they gave birth to their dear baby. How about you? What's your best moment with her? Have you ever had a good time with your mother not talking about your problems and arguments? Have you ever told her how much you thank her for the life she gave to you, the time she cared for you? Maybe you can tell her how happy you are when she was there looking after you during your painful days in your life.

Tell the magic words

Life is short. We don't know what will happen tomorrow. Those three words can make her heart jump for joy, you know? Just tell her “I love you!” and it would make her smile so sweetly. Just try! We don't want to miss a thing, right?
