26、My wife and I were at a crowded grocery store not long ago. It was a weekday evening, cold and wet and tense. People were carelessly blocking aisles, complaining and cutting one another off with their carts. At one point, two women quarreled for several minutes in the freezer section.
Things got worse at the checkout line. The cashier scanned a man's discount card, but he misread the savings on her screen as an additional charge. He decided she was acting on purpose and began to argue.
Other customers looked away as the cashier tried to reason with him. She called a manager, who took him to customer service. Shaken, she moved to the next customer in line.
We’ve all witnessed uncomfortable scenes like this in public places. My reaction when I see them is both personal and professional. I am a data analyst and sociologist who studies how and why people interact with one another--or why they choose not to. To me, the grocery scene was another example of how our trust in others has disappeared. But it was also a teachable moment on how we can rebuild our faith — starting with just one person.
Therefore, my wife and I reached the disturbed cashier. I grabbed a bottle of water from a nearby cooler and handed it to her. We learned her name was Beth.
“We felt bad about how that man treated you and wanted to buy this for you.” I said.
Beth’s face lit up, and we talked as she scanned our items. She told us she had been working that evening through severe foot pain and would be having surgery later that week. We wished her well in her recovery, and she thanked us as we left.
That is the balancing act, the moment of countering social and emotional pain with healing, that will add up to restore trust across the United States. You can start that pattern in someone else's life , even in a place as ordinary as the neighborhood grocery store.
【1】By describing the arguments, the author wants to show________.
A.the job as a cashier is not easy.
B.people in the U.S are unfriendly.
C.arguments in public are very common.
D.confidence in each other has worn off.
【2】How did Beth probably feel when the couple gave her a bottle of water?
A.Sad and regretful.
B.Sorry and embarrassed.
C.Cheerful and rewarded.
D.Grateful and relieved.
【3】What's author's attitude towards Americans' regaining trust?
A.Doubtful.
B.Optimistic.
C.Uncaring
D.Cautious
【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.A Miserable Cashier.
B.A Helping Hand.
C.Learning to Trust Again.
D.Starting a new life.
27、After years of touring the world, in 2019, Tutankhamun began his final world tour before resting forever in the new Grand Egyptian Museum. His journey, which began in California and received great welcome in Paris, will take him as far from home as Japan, Sydey and South Korea.
From now until May 2020, he stops off at London' s Saatchi Gallery. Here’s a glimpse of some treasures you’ll witness.
Guardian Statue(守卫石像)
This life-sized guardian statue is one of a set of two that watched over the entrance to Tut's burial chamber (墓室), and was one of the first things Carter saw upon entering the tomb. It's their eyes that immediately draw your attention. They never seem to be looking directly at you, because the statues were made for the afterlife, meaning they need to be looking farther than our world. It's one of the objects that have left Cairo for the first time and one that the exhibition's organizers refer to as "a big win".
Coffinite
You might be surprised to learn that organs were dealt with separately during the process of making mummies in ancient Egypt. Each organ had a specially designated case in order to protect it on the way to the next world.King Tut was no different and this beautiful, gold coffinette was designed to store the young Pharaoh’s liver.
Gilded Wooden Naos(神龛)
One of the most mysterious objects discovered in Tutankhamun’s tomb and on display at the Saatchi, is this gilded wooden naos. Never before a description of the relationship between a king and his queen been discovered with this level of detail-it shows that King Tut and his wife (and half-sister), were extremely close. Inside the naos, Carter found a stand for a statue, but no statue itself, only footprints on the base of the stand. Many explanations as to its meaning have been offered over the years, but the most convincing one was a stand for a statue of the god Amun, whose name means "the hidden one”.
【1】Where can we see the Tutankhamun exhibition now?
A.In Egypt.
B.In the USA.
C.In France.
D.In the UK.
【2】What do we know about Tutankhamun from the passage?
A.He was buried with a guardian to lead him to the afterlife.
B.He was married to someone he had a blood relation with
C.Coffinette was used to store his body shortly after he died.
D.There used to be a statue of him in the gilded wooden naos.
【3】Where can we most probably find the passage?
A.In a health report.
B.In a story book.
C.In an education magazine.
D.In a museum leaflet.

29、Earthquake rescue robots have experienced their final tests in Beijing.Their designers say with these robots,rescuers will be able to buy more time to save lives during an earthquake.
This robot looking like a helicopter,is called the detector-bot.It’s about 4 meters long,and it took about 4 years to develop the model.Its main functions are to collect information from the air,and send goods of up to 30 kilos to people trapped by an earthquake.
This robot has a high definition 360 degrees panoramic (全景) camera.It can work day and night and will also be able to send the latest pictures from the quake area.
Dr.Qi Juntong,Chinese Academy of Science,said,“The most important feature of this robot is that it doesn’t need a distant control.We just set the destination (目的地) information on it,and then it takes off,and lands by itself.It flies as high as 3,000 meters,and as fast as 100 kilometers per hour.”
This robot has a different function—it can change as the environment changes.Its main job is to search for any signs of life in places where human rescuers are unable to go.
As well as a detector (探测器) that finds victims and detects poisonous gas,a camera is placed in the 40 centimeters long robot, which can work in the dark.
Another use for the rescuers is the supply bot.With its 10-meter-long pipe,people who are trapped in the ruins,will be able to get supplies including oxygen and liquids.
Experts have said that the robots will enter production,and serve as part of the national earthquake rescue team as soon as next year.

“If mum finds out that I'm going to the beach, I'll be in big trouble.” I said to myself softly in a low voice.
I went downstairs slowly and tried to walk casually into the kitchen. As I was walking towards the back door, mum asked without looking up from her dish-washing, “Where are you going?” I answered back without hesitation, “I am going to the garden to play.” After I got out of the kitchen, I breathed a sign of relief. My plan had worked out fine so far. I climbed the fence and jumped onto the muddy field next to my house and started running towards the bus stop at top speed.
After half an hour I was at the beach scanning the crowd for my friends, Jimmy and Bobby. Two young men were racing in the canoes (独木舟). After a while, I saw them near a coconut tree. I ran towards them and got into my swimming trunk (游泳裤). For about an hour, we played volleyball happily.
Suddenly, Bobby hit the ball too hard and the ball fell into the sea. Just as Bobby was going to pick up the ball, the tide came in and carried the ball further and further away from the shore. I wanted to show off my swimming skills so I declared to help get the ball for him.
I dived into the water and started swimming at a steady pace. After swimming for about ten minutes, I became tired but when I saw that the ball was only a few feet away from me, I put in an extra burst of speed. However, just as I was going to get the ball, a very strong current swept the ball further away from me. At that moment, a string of weed (海草) tangled (缠绕) up with my feet and I could not swim properly.
I struggled to keep afloat but it was no use. “If I had listened to my parents, this would never have happened,” I thought silently.
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。
Finally, after struggling for a minute or two, I still got pulled underwater.
