21、Art museums can be found in most large cities. However, certain cities have a lot more very popular art museums than other places.
Art museums do not have ratings (等级) the way fine hotels or restaurants do. But we can compare museums by the number of yearly visitors in order to rate them. In one such comparison done in 2021, only art museums having one million visitors or more were included.
Starting in the US, New York City has three top-rated museums. The Met had more than 6 million visitors for the year. That total, added to the total of the other two museums, gave New York City 10.5 million visitors in 2021.
Next on the list, with just two of the city’s art museums bringing in more than one million visitors, is Beijing, China. The museum inside the largest palace in Beijing had 14 million visitors for the year. The total number of visitors to Beijing’s two art museums was about 15 million.
Europe had the greatest number of top-rated art museums. Paris had five of those museums. The Louvre, with many world famous works of art in it, had more than 9 million visitors. The total number of visitors to the top five art museums in Paris was a little more than 19 million.
The city with the most top-rated art museums was London, with nine. The British Museum alone had almost 7 million visitors in 2021. The total of all nine museums in London was 29 million visitors.
You can find great art anywhere. But if you really want to have the greatest choice of museums, London is the place to go.

22、 Some of the most powerful companies in the world have co-founders. For example, Google (Sergey Brin and Larry Page), Apple (Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs), and Microsoft (Bill Gates and Paul Allen) and so on. Having partners can help to deal with the pressure and the failures that come with running a business. No matter how down on your luck you feel they may provide emotional support. They may have extra skills, and be on hand to help out with the day-to-day. And an alternate point of view may help to broaden your mind and aid the risk of mistakes being overlooked.
Everybody knows Samsungs Galaxy Note 7. When the phone was launched in 2016, customers praised it for its storage, design and usability, and it may well have been a hit if it weren’t for the fact that it occasionally caught fire and exploded. It was soon banned immediately from flights, and Samsung had no choice but to recall the entire model. The shortcoming reportedly cost the company $1 billion, and a further $17 billion in lost sales. But remember, based on the lesson, the Galaxy Note 8 and the Galaxy Note 9 are well received in the world! Now we know that failing is part of business success.
One thing that all great companies have in common is that they have failed many times—and luckily, they bounced back. Take Sarah Blakely, founder of shapewear brand Spanx for example. She credits her business success specifically to her failures. “I’d get kicked out of buildings all day long,” she remembered. “People would tear up my business card in my face. But my friends and I knew I could sell and I knew I wanted to sell something I had created. I learned that ‘no’ doesn’t always mean ‘no’, and that you may get 30 nos before you get the one yes. People told me no with Spanx for two years.” Spanx is worth just over $ I billion—it was a company that Blakely who took a degree in a law school started with just $ 5000!
【1】What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?
A.Two heads are better than one.
B.Constant dropping wears the stone.
C.God helps those who help themselves.
D.All things are difficult before they are easy.
【2】Why does the author mention Samsungs Galaxy Note 7, 8 and 9?
A.To argue customers always follow the new trends.
B.To prove Samsung is responsible for customers.
C.To show Samsung paid for its product failure.
D.To explain that failures don’t spell the end.
【3】What mainly contributed to Sarah Blakely’s success?
A.Her friends’ help. B.Her will power.
C.Her good luck. D.Her education background.
【4】How does the author develop the passage?
A.By contrast. B.By classification.
C.By giving examples. D.By giving numbers.
23、Starting high school means changes in your life. Most teenagers look forward to the first day of high school, but still feel a little bit nervous. 【1】

There are more after-class activities in high school than in middle school, such as clubs, music and theatre groups, the students’ union, and sports teams. Make friends and take part in such school activities. 【5】 Ask someone in the school office about chances to take part in school activities if you don’t know how.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My dad and I had been looking forward to the Stale cross-country race of my senior year of high school, which would be the climax (顶点) of my existence.
I was the fastest runner on my team, and I was supposed to make it into the top fifteen. We had been working towards this race for three years. It was everything to me, and it was everything to my dad. He was a runner and was wild with joy by my success in running. He made it to every race, even flying home early from business trips to see me run. I always listened for his voice, which rang above the crowd-telling me to relax my arms, calling out my time. He pushed me. He cheered for me. He believed in me. We spent countless hours on the sandy canals of Arizona. Breathing in the dust of the desert, the blossoms of the orange trees, and the terrible smell of the dairy farm, we made our way across the city. We pounded miles and miles into our running shoes, marking with every step the path to greatness. It was a journey that was just ours. A dream passed on from one generation to the next.
Then the big day came. It was hotter than normal - too hot. My throat felt like a field of cotton, cracked with the summer heat, as I waited for the gun to fire. I gazed out at the crowd; dozens of familiar faces from church and school flickered across my view. They had come for me. They were counting on me. I saw my dad set his watch, worry and excitement etched across his face. With the sound of a gunshot, the race began.
For the first two and half miles, I felt great. I had never before been so ready for something. The weeks leading up to the race were filled with hard practices and a strict diet. The scorching sun beat upon my back, blinding me with its brilliance. Nothing was going to stop me, though.
