21、Our government has raised the child limit (限制) for couples from two to three as the country experiences lower birth rates (出生率). For many years, China applied a one-child policy as a way to control the population. But that policy was replaced in 2016 with a two-child limit. That change was to raise the number of births. But birth rates have further decreased (减少) in recent years because the cost of raising children in Chinese cities remains high.

The latest measure to permit three children per family means “to actively deal with the aging population (人口老龄化),” the official Xinhua News Agency reported. The policy includes what the government calls “supportive measures (配套相关措施)” to make it easier for families to have more children. The measures include plans to lower educational costs for families and increase tax and housing support. The government also said it would educate young people “on marriage and love”.

Yifei Li is a sociologist at New York University Shanghai. She said that most families did not plan to have more children in recent years because of “the high costs of raising children in today’s China”. Zhang Xinyu is a 30-year-old mother of one from Zhengzhou in northeastern China. She said another problem was that women carried most of the responsibility for raising children. She added, “I don’t want to have a second child. And a third is even more impossible.”

【1】Why does Chinese government raise the child limit for couples from two to three?

A．Because China needs more workers.

B．Because people want to have more children.

C．Because the birth rates have further decreased in China.

D．Because three children are good for a family.

【2】How many children could a couple have in 2015?

A．One.

B．Two.

C．Three.

D．Four.

【3】Which of the following is NOT true?

A．That change of the child limit for couples is to raise the number of births.

B．Population aging is a serious problem in China.

C．The cost of raising children in Chinese cities remains high.

D．Most families plan to have more children in recent years.

【4】Where is the text probably taken from?

A．A storybook.

B．A newspaper.

C．A fashion magazine.

D．A science book.

22、The Niagara Falls is between Canada and the United States in North America. It's on a river that connects two of the five Great Lakes. The Niagara Falls has two parts: the Horseshoe Falls on the Canadian side of the river, and the American Falls on the United States' side. They are about 50 meters high, 1,240 meters wide.

The Niagara Falls has three special falls. The tallest are the American and Bridal Veil falls on the American side. The falls are colourful lit up at night, and many people say they're even more beautiful in winter when the grounds are covered with snow and the waters turn to ice.

Most visitors go as close to the falls as possible and watch the waters thundering down.

The Niagara Falls is different from the waterfalls you find in mountains, where a thin stream of water comes down a mountainside, half-flying.

Above in the air, you will understand the real difference between the American and Canadian Falls. The American Falls get only about 10% of the water, while the Canadian Falls get 90%.

【1】The Horseshoe Falls is .

A. in the USA   B. in Canada

C. in China   D. between Canada and America

【2】The Niagara Falls is about .

A. 50 metres wide   B. 1,240 metres high

C. 1,240 metres long   D. 50 metres high

A. winter   B. summer   C. autumn   D. spring

【4】The word “stream” in the passage means in Chinese.

A. 大海   B. 溪流   C. 湖泊   D. 绿洲

【5】Which of the  following is WRONG?

A. The Niagara Falls is in North America

B. The Niagara Falls has two parts

C. The American Falls get most water

D. The Niagara Falls is very beautiful

23、It is believed in some ways that the daughter is father’s lover. But my experience has taught me in a different way. For a long time, my father has been a very vague (模糊的) figure to me. He was a man of few words, tall but slim and nothing else.

When I was in primary school, my father was never there to pick me up, and he never came to any of my parent-teacher meetings. He was always busy doing projects. I remember when I was in middle school and my head was badly hurt in a PE class. During my operation, my father was still busy with his work. This hurt me most. At that moment, I thought my father as a cold-blooded man who did not care about me at all.

But things seemed different. I would give a speech at my high school graduation ceremony (毕业典礼). My father, once again, couldn’t attend it because he had a business trip in a place outside the city. “Don’t come. I will be nervous if I see you.” I told him.

I remember my speech was successful. After the ceremony, I was about to leave. I suddenly noticed a man sitting in a corner of the hall. It was my father! I was so surprised that I rushed to him with tears running down my face. “Well done.” he said. His eyes were also filled with tears.

Later, I knew that my father had managed to finish his work by staying up late, and he drove for eight hours to get back. He sat in the corner because he didn’t want me to see him. My father remembered every word in my speech.

For much of my life, I described my father was a cold-blooded man who only cared about his work. But when I thought deeply about this, it was clearly not true. At my graduation ceremony I could feel my father’s deep love. The fact is that seeing is not believing, and seeing may not be the fact if we don’t perceive (感知) the world with our hearts and minds. Life is full of love, but sometimes our eyes have trouble seeing it.

【1】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A．The writer’s father was in the hospital during her operation.

B．The writer’s father attended her high school graduation ceremony.

C．The writer’s father sometimes picked her up when she was in primary school.

D．The writer’s father went to parent-teacher meetings when she was in primary school.

【2】The writer rushed to her father with tears running down her face because _________.

A．she gave a speech successfully

B．the graduation ceremony was over

C．she was so nervous that she couldn’t help crying

D．she was touched to find her father cared about her

【3】What does the underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refer to (指代)?

A．That my father was always doing projects.

B．That my father was a cold-blooded man.

C．That my father sat in the corner of the hall.

D．That my father’s eyes were filled with tears.

【4】What’s the best title of the passage?

A．My busy father

B．Life is full of love

C．Seeing is not believing

D．A wonderful speech

24、C. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words (在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给)

I get up at 7:30 and get dressed for school. My school has a uniform: black trousers and shoes, a white shirt and a black and gold tie. The girls wear the same, or they can wear a black skirt. We also have a black sweatshirt or we can wear a black jacket. Not all British students must wear uniforms, but it’s a r【1】 in our school.

I don’t live far from the school, so I walk there with my friends, Brian and Gemma. Lots of students catch the school bus or their parents d【2】 them to school. On Mondays we all start the day with Assembly(集会) in the school hall at 8:50. The headmaster talks to us and gives us information about school e【3】for the whole week.

This year I’ve got nine s【4】. We all study English, Maths and Science, and then we choose others. My favorites are IT and Art&Design. Brian likes Spanish and Japanese. Gemma is brilliant at Maths, so she goes to an Advanced Maths class.

We have 20 minutes for a b【5】 in the morning and an hour for lunch. Some students bring sandwiches to school for lunch, but my friends and I always eat in the dining room where you can get a hot meal every day.

Lessons end at 4 o’clock, but on Mondays and Wednesdays I stay at school until 5 o’clock. I to the Photography Club and the Athletics Club. There are lots of clubs and activities at our school. Brian g【6】 to the Film Club and Gemma plays in the school band.

At the end of the day I always spend two hours on homework, sometimes three hours. We get lots of homework now, for we’ve got our f 【7】 exam in June. After all, every one of us hopes to achieve a satisfying academic performance at school.
