21、 Once upon a time, a king offered a prize to the artist who could paint the best picture of peace. The king received thousands of paintings from many artists. He studied each one carefully and finally decided upon two that he really liked. He now had to choose between them.
The first was a painting of a beautiful calm lake with clear water. It was surrounded by green forests and high mountains. Overhead, the sky was blue with white clouds.
The other painting had mountains too, but these mountains were rugged (崎岖的). A huge waterfall fell down one side of the mountain. Above them was an angry sky, lit by lightning, from which heavy rain fell.
Most people agreed that the first painting clearly showed a place of perfect peace. However, when the king looked at the second painting more closely, he found a tiny bush growing behind the waterfall. There, in the small bush, a mother bird had built her nest. In the middle of the rush of angry water, in the wind and the noise, the mother bird sat still on her nest – in perfect peace.
The king chose the second painting. When asked why, he said: “Peace does not mean being in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. Peace means being in the middle of all of these things and yet still being able to find calm and quiet in your heart, and to carry on with your life. This is the true meaning of peace.”
【1】According to the story, the first painting gave people a feeling of ______.
A. warmth B. anger C. noise D. quietness
【2】The second painting of the story expresses peace by ______.
A. describing B. comparing C. speaking D. watching
【3】Which of following describes the two paintings best?

B. It was sunny and the sky was blue with no clouds in the first painting.
C. In the second painting, a bird stayed calm in frightening surroundings.
D. In the second painting, the mother bird was frightened by the heavy rain.
【4】The king chose the second painting because ______.
A. it showed a new idea of peace
B. there was no noise in it
C. the artist worked hard on it
D. it was close to nature
【5】We can learn from the story that ______.
A. silence means peace
B. real peace means struggling against wild situations
C. real peace means keeping calm in difficult situations
D. peace only exists in your heart and in a quiet situation
22、Do you like walking in nature? How do you feel when you hear birdsong? Happy or nervous? Recently, a study showed that hearing different sounds of bird singing may help increase(增加) our happiness.
Researchers at California Polytechnic State University(简称 Cal Poly) did a study. They studied the effects(作用) of birdsong on people walking through a park in the U.S. state of Colorado. Danielle Ferraro led the Cal Poly study.
Feraro said there could be an evolutionary(进化的) reason why we like birdsong so much. “The idea is that when we hear birdsong, it could mean that we are in a safe environment,” she said. There could be many other reasons, too. Ferraro said that in some areas birdsong could also mean the arrival of spring and nice weather. “Bird diversity(多样性) could also mean a healthy environment,” she added.
Ferraro and her team played recorded songs from a group of different kinds of birds. They did this in a park in Boulder, Colorado. Over several weeks, the researchers played recorded birdsong at certain times of the day and other times they did not. Then they talked with hikers(徒步旅行者) after they passed by. People who heard the recorded birdsongs reported a greater sense of happiness than those who heard simply the natural birds. The researchers said that both the bird sounds and bird diversity could increase feelings of happiness.
The research team did the study during the summer. Ferraro explained why this was important. “The spring is the most birds’ breeding(繁殖)season. We didn’t want to disturb(打扰) the birds too much.”
【1】Who did Danielle Ferraro’s team study on?
A.The unhappy people.
B.Ferraro and her team.
C.The people walking through a park.
D.The people living near a park.
【2】Why didn’t Danielle Ferraro’s team do their research in spring?
A.Because they liked summer better.
B.Because they didn’t want to disturb the bird breeding.
C.Because there are more birds in summer.
D.Because the birds don’t like singing in spring.
【3】What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
①Birdsong can make human feel safe. ②People’s love for birdsong is important.
③Birds are active in the spring and nice weather. ④Birds like to live in a natural and healthy environment.
A.①②③
B.①③④

D.①②④
【4】What’s the purpose of the fourth paragraph?
A.To talk about Ferraro’s study to readers.
B.To make people close to nature.
C.To make readers understand what a study is like.
D.To show why birdsong increases people’s feelings of happiness.

23、We see humans all around us. But when was the first human seen? Early humans did not leave behind any written records. However, they left behind many paintings on the walls of the caves(洞穴) where they lived. These paintings tell about their life, and we know these early humans walked on our limbs(四肢) like apes(猿). Also, they did not live at one place but moved from place to place in search of food and water.
Without any tools, early humans used stones, bones of animals, and sharp pieces of wood to dig, hunt and cut their food. They also used these to protect themselves from animals. Since stones were used to make tools, this age was called the Stone Age.
With time going by, tools made of bones and stones were replaced(代替) with metal ones which were stronger, sharper, and long-lasting. Metals were also used for farming and making knives. Copper(铜) was the first metal to be used.
The first fire that early humans noticed was natural fire caused by lightning. With fire, early humans could now light up dark caves. They could keep themselves warm during cold weather and cook meat. Also the fire could drive animals away.
Early humans noticed new trees growing from the seeds(种子) that fell to the ground from the fruits. This gave them the idea that they could make their own food by planting seeds and it led to farming. With the beginning of farming, early humans began to settle down(定居). They moved out of the caves and lived on farms and near their fields together, then the first villages came up.
Raising animals was a big thing in human history that changed the life of early humans. The wild dogs were probably the first animals to be raised. As time went by, goats, sheep, cows, donkeys and horses were kept, too. This led to herding(游牧) animals. Milk, meat and wool came from these animals.
【1】Why did early humans have to move around?
A.To find more caves to live in.
B.To make kinds of tools.
C.To look for food and water.
D.To protect themselves from animals.

①Light up dark caves. ②Keep themselves warm.
③Cook meat. . ④Make knives. ⑤Drive animals away.
A.①②③④
