26、2020 is special. When we dip into the model “suspended class, ongoing learning” during the pandemic(大流行）of NCP, have you thought of the inventors that supply us the convenience on the computers? Here, let’s know a respectable person who left us a few months ago.
Larry Tesler: computer scientist ,an icon of early computing, died at the age of 74 in this spring. Mr Tesler started working in Silicon Valley in the early 1960s, at a time when computers were inaccessible to the vast majority of people.It was thanks to his innovations ,which included the “cut”, “copy” and “paste” commands that the personal computer became simple to learn and use. Xerox, where Mr Tesler spent part of his career, paid tribute to him. “The inventor of cut/copy & paste, find & replace, and more, was former Xerox researcher Larry Tesler,” the company tweeted. “Your workday is easier thanks to his revolutionary ideas.”
Mr Tesler was born in the Bronx, New York, in 1945, and studied at Stanford University in California. After graduating, he specialised in user interface(界面) design, that is, making computer systems more user-friendly. He worked for a number of major tech firms during his long career. He started at Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (Parc), before Steve Jobs invited him for Apple, where he spent 17 years and rose to chief scientist. After leaving Apple he set up an education firm, and worked for brief periods at Amazon and Yahoo.
In 2012, he told the BBC of Silicon Valley: “There’s almost a custom -- after you’ve made some money, you don’t just retire, you spend your time funding other companies.”
“There’s a very strong element of excitement, of being able to share what you’ve learned with the next generation.” he added.

A．Mr Tesler innovated the computer.
B．Mr Tesler invented the “cut”, “copy” and “paste” commands.
C．Mr Tesler spent part of his career as a data man in Xerox company.
D．Most people have many chances to use computers in the early 1960s.
【2】How many companies did Larry Tesler once worked in ?
A．three
B．four
C．five
D．six
【3】Which word can best describe Mr Tesler as a scientist?
A．selfless
B．friendly
C．special
D．humorous
【4】What will the passage continue to talk about after the last paragraph?
A．Educating the next generation.

27、In some schools, structured character education is a part of the curriculum, right alongside reading, writing, and math. 【1】 .
The qualities of character develop through an interaction of family, school, and community influences and the child's individual personality, experiences, and choices. Parents have many opportunities and tools to build their children's character. 【2】
Be a role model
Parents who exhibit the qualities of good character powerfully transmit their values to their children. Imagine you are honest, trustworthy, fair, compassionate, respectful, and involved in the greater good of your family and community. 【3】 They will also see that this behavior brings a sense of joy, satisfactions, and peace to their family.
【4】
Children also need to learn that when they violate your family's guiding ethics, you will carry out consequences with fairness and dignity. Always take the opportunity to explain why your child's behavior is wrong when you correct him.
Make a habit of identifying in your own mind the value you wish to teach the child based on the particular behavior. Choose a consequence that is appropriate to teach that value.
Tell stories from literature and life
Parents and teachers used stories to teach moral lessons long before books were even invented. As you tell the stories of your life and the world around you, you convey lessons in values and ethics to your children.
When you listen and respond to your children's stories about school and peers, you can help them think through the right thing to do. 【5】 . These anecdotes(趣闻轶事) show your kids how your values guide all aspects of your life.
A．Provide opportunities to practice
B．Use teachable moments to build character
C．Your children will see this in your everyday actions and choices
D．Be mindful of your children listening to the stories you tell other adults
E．However, building character for kids can't just happen in the classroom
F．But hands-on experience is needed to know the true meaning of character
G．Using them will give you the joy and satisfaction of seeing your kids grow
28、 I'm a New York City firefighter. Every day, I see terror — sometimes even death. But the day I found Scarlett was different. That day I saw life and love.
We got a call about a burning garage. Outside, I heard the sound of cats crying. I couldn't stop — I would have to look for the cats after the fire was put out. It took a long time to finally bring the big fire under control, but we did it. No one inside was hurt. There was still a lot of smoke and heat coming from the building. At that point I was free to follow the cat noises to a spot. There were five terrified kittens, crying and huddled together.
I wanted to find the mother. It was obvious that she had gone into the burning garage and carried out all of her babies, one by one — unbelievable.
We finally found her. She was badly burnt. She could hardly move. I picked her up and she felt relaxed in my arms. Sensing her trust, I shed a tear. I was determined to save this brave little cat and her family.
About a week later, I found out she was going to live. One of the technicians suggested we name her Scarlett, because of her reddened skin.
Knowing what Scarlett went through for her kittens, it melted my heart to see her reunited with them. She touched each of them again, nose to nose, to make sure they were all safe. She had risked her life five separate times — and it had paid off. All of her babies had survived.
As a freighter, I see heroism every day. But what Scarlett showed me that day was the kind of bravery that can only come from a mother's love.
【1】What do we know about the author?

【2】What does the underlined word “huddled” mean in paragraph 2?
A．Moving quickly.

D．Looking tired.
【3】The cat was named Scarlett because of ________
A．her love for babies.
B．her brave behavior.
C．the colour of her skin.
D．her survival in the fire.
【4】Which best describes the author's feeling when he found the mother cat?
A．Amused.
B．Touched.
C．Satisfied.
D．Disappointed.
29、 “Nature never stops being amazing,” says Rosemary Mosco, master of humorous nature art. Her new book, Birding Is MyFavorite Video Game, combines fascinating facts with charming pictures, and it's guaranteed to make you laugh. In fact, the learning and laughing are both equally important to Rosemary.
“There's so much to love about birds,” notes Rosemary. “I admire that they're real-life, modern dinosaurs! As an artist, I'm captivated by their color variations. Once you get into birds, the interest snowballs. You can find them almost everywhere. You start to notice subtle behaviors and wing patterns. You're never bored again. Teaching a kid to watch birds is a huge gift.”
Birds make regular appearances in Rosemary's nature art comics. She created charts explaining the songs and calls of common eastern and western birds. One of her most popular pieces is a flow chart helping you to decide whether or not to help a baby bird fallen from a nest. And her own personal favorite cartoon is about tiny owls, meant to be both motivational and mildly disturbing. Rosemary explains: “One reader asked me if we had any evidence that these owls can kill and eat a moose. My response was, not yet…”
Rosemary loves other animals, and is especially proud of a poster she drew showing every snake in the US and Canada. She also has a real soft spot for butterflies. “Their behaviors can be surprisingly complex,” she points out. “They defend habitats with dogfights. They have complex relationships with poisonous plants. Some of them eat waste and drink tears. Oh, and it helps that they pose nicely for photos.”
Mostly self-taught, Rosemary has taken a few art courses, even studying video game art for a bit. During her career, she's created many educational charts, and has been working on some children's science books. She also has an upcoming comics novel about the solar system.
“I'm excited to share more stories about the natural world.” Rosemary says about the future of her nature art comics. “Humor gives science wings!”
【1】What is the main feature of Rosemary's comics?
A.A novel of ecology and cartoons. B.A combination of nature art and science.
C.A mixture of entertainment and education. D.A book of interesting facts and behavior charts.
【2】What does the underlined word "captivated" mean in Paragraph 2?
A.Puzzled. B.Attracted. C.Shocked. D.Encouraged.
【3】The purpose of writing Paragraph 4 is to .
A.share the content of Rosemary's comics B.explain the popularity of Rosemary's art
C.prove the hardship of Rosemary's creation D.disclose the source of Rosemary's inspiration
【4】What is Rosemary most likely to do next?
