21、 I was born an albino (白化病人) in Pennsylvania in 1945. No one in my family had ever known what an albino was and what it meant to be an albino.
My family and friends treated me like everybody else. That was just about the best thing they could have done. It helped me trust myself, so when troubles came along, I could deal with them.
Like most albinos, I had terrible eyesight, but the fact that I could hardly see didn’t bother me that much.
Kids would tease me, calling me “Whitey”. People stared at me when I held reading material right at the tip of my nose so that I could see it well enough. Even when I was eight, movie-theater clerks started asking me to pay full price because I “looked older”.
The worst part for me was that because my eyesight was so bad, I couldn’t play sports very well. I didn’t give up trying, though. I shot hoops (投篮) every day. And I studied harder.
Eventually, I got better at school and loved it. By the time I got to college, I was double majoring, going to summer school and busying myself with every activity I could find. I had learned to be proud of being an albino. I did my best to make “albino” a positive word. And I decided to make my living with my eyes — and in sports.
I couldn’t see very well to play sports, but with a solid education and a drive to do it, I could make a living involved in the area I loved. I’ve done it now for over thirty years in print and in video, and now in cyberspace. People make jokes about how I’m the only “blind editor” they know, but the jokes are affectionate, some of them signs of respect.
I was just a proud albino kid from the coal country of Pennsylvania. I now realize that being born an albino helped me to overcome difficulties, gain confidence and be proud of my personal achievement.
【1】According to the author, ______ helped him a lot in dealing with troubles.
A．the special care from his family and friends.
B．the sympathy from the public.
C．the equal way his family and friends treated him.
D．his education in school.
【2】All the following are the signs of being an albino for the author EXCEPT _____.
A．abnormally white skin.
B．poor eyesight.
C．an older appearances.
D．being unable to play sports.
【3】The author’s good education and strong motivation made him successful as a(an) ________.
A．sports editor.
B．Disc Jockey (DJ).
C．printer.
D．IT engineer.
【4】We can infer from the passage that ________.
A．the author’s poor eyesight made him very upset.
B．the author finally did well in playing sports after years of practice.

22、Science shows that stretching isn’t actually literal — you’re not even “stretching” your muscles at all. 【1】. It does wonders for both your joints and your muscles. What’s more, stretching helps your blood flow, reduces your risk of injury, helps you lose weight, and even relieves your stress. So what if you don’t do stretching after exercise?
⚫ You could feel sick
You won’t be surprised to know that when you exercise, you raise your heart rate for a period of time. 【2】, experts will tell you that it’s just as important to “get your heart rate back to a normal level after the workout is over.” This is also known in the fitness world as “cooling down.”
“After physical activity, your heart is still beating faster than normal, your body temperature is higher and your blood vessels are dilated,” write the health experts at the American Heart Association. “This means if you stop too fast, you could pass out or feel sick. 【3】. ”
⚫ Your muscles will likely become stiffer and more sore
When you exercise your muscles, it produces an inflammatory response in the form of lactic acid, which is actually what causes your muscles to become sore. When you rest — or “recover” — in the time between bouts of exercise, your body naturally breaks down and gets rid of that lactic acid. One thing that helps your body dispose of that lactic acid? 【4】. Stretching helps your distribute oxygen throughout your body and muscles, which, according the Healthline, “can reduce lactic acid production and rid your muscles of any accumulation of lactic acid. ”
⚫ 【5】
Having poor flexibility isn’t good for your body. According to the experts in the sports medicine department at UC Davis Health, inflexibility will cause you to have muscles that tire quicker and joints that are more likely to suffer from injury, and your weakened range of motion will lead to less blood and nutrients to your joints. In the case of the latter, it’s why people often feel stiffness and pain in their “weight bearing” joints, such as the knees and hips. And sticking to stretching exercise after physical activity can hopefully improve your flexibility.
A．You’ll be at risk of injury
B．You guessed it: Stretching
C．While it’s great to get that blood flowing
D．You have to improve your flexibility by stretching
E．If you want some clever ways to work your muscles more every day
F．A cooldown after physical activity allows a gradual decrease at the end of the episode
G．In fact, the true purpose of stretching is to lengthen and mobilize the connective tissue around your muscle
23、Imagine climbing a mountain and getting half way up and saying to yourself, “You know what, I’m going to climb back down and finish this later.”
【1】 We have projects that sit waiting to be completed. Some people start college but never graduate. We have books that we never finish reading. 【2】 Many people are great at beginning things but can’t seem to finish strong.
Not finishing what we started has been a repeated problem for us. We have to face it. 【3】 Whenever we delay, or put to the side, the things that will help us accomplish our goals, we stop developing our potential.
Not finishing not only causes us to stop making progress but also we find it harder whenever we do decide to start again. Consider this: every time I begin a new exercise program my muscles are sore (疼) for a few days. After a few weeks of routine, the muscles get accustomed to the program and grow stronger. Thus, no more sore muscles. Well, when I take some time off I fear starting again. 【4】
Strong finishers are able to focus on getting the best result from anything that they start. So how do we know that we are a strong finisher? Along with the huge feeling of accomplishment, other people will begin to notice the change. 【5】 They will have no choice but to recognize our strong finishing ability. We will be rewarded with more trust from them.
A．The list goes on and on.
B．We should have the confidence.
C．Why don’t we have the interest any more?
D．Sounds silly, but that is what we do all of the time.
E．I know that my muscles are going to be sore again.
F．They will see we are able to climb and conquer the mountain.
G．Not being a strong finisher can limit our ability to conquer our goals.
24、Students at Summit Elementary in Butler, Pennsylvania, are growing more than their minds. Under the guidance of longtime teacher Angela Eyth, they’ve created a generous garden to benefit people in need at nearby Broad Street Elementary, whose neighborhood lacks fresh-produce options.
The project is now two years old, and goes beyond planting and growing: Eyth and her fellow educators structure lessons in science, math and more around their garden. “The kids are in charge of everything,” Eyth says. “They’re so proud of what we’re doing here.”
“When we grew cabbage my students noticed something was eating the leaves, ” Eyth recalls. “This led to an investigation into what was eating them and how to stop it: the kids analyzed the evidence they found and acted as engineers in creating various ways to keep pests(害虫) out of the cabbage beds.”
She continues, “People think gardening should be separate from core subjects but it’s far from the truth. The kids’ curiosity keeps it rolling.”
The kids also keep the produce rolling—so much so that with a $70,000 grant from Remake Learning/Grable Foundation, they’re building a farm stand at Broad Street Elementary that will ultimately bring fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs and more to an area of their community considered a food desert. People will be able to go there and gain the benefits of the harvest.
This year’s crop included peas, beans, carrots, turnips, squash and pumpkins; plans are in place to keep expanding in the years ahead with items like Christmas trees, a sunflower patch and a pollinator garden. “It’s amazing that you start with a small idea and it can grow,” Eyth says.
【1】What can we know about the community near Broad Street Elementary?
A．It focuses on students’ growth.
B．It invites Eyth to create a garden.
C．Its fresh-produce variety is limited.
D．It relies on students for fresh produce.
【2】How do Eyth and her colleagues help the students?
A．By arranging subjects around the garden.
B．By analyzing the structure of subjects.
C．By deciding what to plant in the garden.
D．By providing them with job opportunities.
【3】Why did the students conduct an investigation?
A．To experience the work of engineers.
B．To make the evidence more convincing.
C．To find ways to plant vegetables well.
D．To figure out what fed on cabbage leaves.
【4】Which can best describe the students at Summit Elementary in Butler?
A．Energetic and healthy.
B．Creative and responsible.
C．Patient and strong-willed.
D．Cautious and talented.

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。
I was terrified of heights. Of course, it was not really a fear of being in a high place. Rather, it was the view of a long way to fall, of rocks far below me and no firm wall between me and the edge. My sense of security was screamingly absent.I could rely only on my own sure-footedness.
Despite my fear, two summers ago I somehow found myself climbing to a high place, while quaking inside and out. Most of our high school had come along on a day trip to the Boquerón, a beautiful and pleasant spot in the foothills of Peru. Its chief attraction is the main waterfall, about 100 feet high, that thunders into a crystal clear pool feeding the Aguaytia River. All around the pool and on down to the rushing river are rocks large and small. The beach is strewn (布满) with rocks. On both sides of the fall, the jungle stretches to meet it, rising parallel to it on a gentler slope.
After eating our lunches, many of us wanted to make the climb to an area above it. We knew others had done so on previous trips. A few guys went first to make sure they were on the right path. But after they left, my group of seven decided to go ahead without waiting for them to return. I suspected we were going the wrong way, but I kept silent, figuring that the others knew better. We went along the base of the hill until we reached the climb. It stopped me in my tracks.
The climb rose steeply above us. Along the right edge, the jungle hugged the rocks; passage through its trees seemed unlikely to be achieved. The majority of my view was filled with rocks. Peering back down toward the river, I saw a steep slope of rocks all the way to the water. All I could think about was how far it would be to fall.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；

My tense thoughts were interrupted by the realization that my friends were already beginning to climb!
