21、 If you are a fruit grower—or would like to become one—take advantage of Apple Day to see what's around. It's called Apple Day but in practice it's more like Apple Month. 【1】 But since it has caught on, events now spread out over most of October around Britain.
【2】 To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets, it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence, such as Decio which was grown by the Romans. Although it doesn't taste of anything special, it's still worth a try, as is the knobbly(多疙瘩的) Cat's Head, which is more of a curiosity than anything else.
There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions. 【3】 But you'll need a warm, sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it, so it's a pipe dream for most apple lovers who fall for it.
【4】 Therefore you can discuss which ones will best suit your conditions, and because these are family affairs, children are well catered for with apple themed fun and games.
Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit, including stately gardens and commercial orchards(果园). 【5】 The National Fruit Collection at Brogdale is near Faversham in Kent.
A．The day itself is on October 21.
B．At the events, you can meet expert growers.
C．If you want to have a real orchard experience, try visiting one.
D．One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette.
E．You can plant fruit trees in an orchard after you have experience.
F．After visiting an expert, you can be introduced to an apple festival.
G．Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see, and often taste, a wide variety of apples.
22、 Student photographer Madeline Morales has had experiences most 15 year-olds have not. At the age of 15, she developed cancer and had to go through chemotherapy(化疗). But today will be a unique kind of experience—something most people will never have. “It makes me feel excited, a little bit nervous,” said Morales, whose photos were on display at a gallery show in Los Angeles. These images reflect her journey while battling cancer.
She tried to look at things with a lot of light, a lot of what draws her to positivity and something that means love or happiness. “I think photography has really helped me a lot to stay positive and be motivated to keep fighting this disease.”
Morales is one of 23 students sharing their experiences with cancer through photos at this gallery. They are graduates of the PABLOVE foundation’s SHUTTERBUGS advanced photography class. The foundation aims to improve the lives of children living with the disease through its photography program. It also provides money for underfunded cancer research. Incomes from sales of these prints will go toward cancer research programs.
The PABLOVE program offers classes in eight cities across the United States. “Being in these classes with other people who understand their experience has been really beneficial, and it has really made them feel a lot more comfortable in what they’ve been through,” said Ashley Blakeney, program manager of PABLOVE SHUTTERBUBS. She said the photography classes give students living with cancer a sense of community at a time when they often feel isolated in their experience.
With photography many young students gain an identity that is not controlled by cancer. “There’s more to us than just having cancer. We want people to see what we see even if it’s through the lens(镜头).” says Luckman who was diagnosed with cancer when he was 10 years old. “Photography has given me a small chance to actually assist in the world a bit. I’d love to express my story and allow it to hopefully reach other kids so they can understand how to deal with it hopefully.
【1】Which of the following is true of Madeline Morals?
A. She has suffered from cancer for 15 years.
B. She has had a full recovery from cancer.
C. She has a positive attitude towards life.
D. She uses her photos to record her suffering.
【2】The PABLOVE Foundation was created specially for ________.
A. homeless people B. photography-lovers

【3】What is the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. The popularity of the program.
B. The great significance of this program.
C. The contributions of Ashley.
D. The future plan of the program.
【4】The underlined word “isolated” can be best replaced by ________.
A. lonely B. painful
C. grateful D. positive
【5】According to Lukman, how can photography class benefit children with cancer?
A. By giving them an identity card.
B. By offering a chance to help others.
C. By getting their cancer cured.
D. By offering a way to make money.
23、My fourth-grader came home from school crying recently, after discovering that she hadn’t been invited to a birthday party. I wanted to join in her pity party.
I, too, had just seen pictures of a gathering on social media. I was asleep by 9:00 that night, unaware of all the fun things that were happening.
I always assumed that FOMO (fear of missing out) was a feeling reserved for kids and teens. But FOMO affects every age group. In fact, there’s a scientific explanation for FOMO: Our survival as a species is based on being included in group activities. In order to survive, we must share resources and work as a team.
In a 2018 study published in Motivation and Emotion, researchers found that FOMO is felt by everyone, regardless of their personality. And while FOMO was originally based on survival, today it is associated with sleep problems, fatigue (疲劳) and stress.
“When glancing through social media, we see the best versions of people’s lives and we think we should be doing something to feel more fulfilled and satisfied, instead of focusing on activities that actually give us less joy,” said Meha Agrawal, founder and CEO of Silk & Sonder.
Cutting back on your social media time would help limit your FOMO feelings. But you can also decide to change your thinking. “You always get to choose your thoughts,” said Vikki Louise, an anxiety coach. “The concept of missing out is subjective: You always decide if you are not included.”
Additionally, connecting with the reasons you chose not to participate and owning your choice can go a long way, said Adi Jaffe, mental health expert and lecturer at UCLA. This is true even if you didn’t actually make the choice to be excluded.
【1】What does the underlined sentence imply in the first paragraph?
A．The author also felt sad about being left out.
B．The author and her daughter hated going to parties.
C．The author wanted to throw a party for her daughter.
D．The author didn’t understand her daughter’s sadness.
【2】What do we know about FOMO according to the 2018 study?
A．It can affect our chances of survival.
B．It easily hurts mentally weak people.
C．It is connected with sleep problems.
D．It is shared only among young people.
【3】What did Vikki Louise suggest us doing with FOMO?
A．Setting a limit to our social media time.
B．Competing with others to reduce FOMO.
C．Digging into the benefits of missing out.
D．Deciding for ourselves whether we miss out.
【4】Where can you most probably read this passage?
A．In a travel guidebook.
B．In a family magazine.
C．In a researcher’s lab record.
D．In a health journal.
24、On August 16, 1977, Elvis Presley saved me.
The previous afternoon, I played with my six-year-old peers in Heather Peters’ backyard. I was enjoying my cake, when Heather asked me where my sleeping bag was. Only then did I know this party was a sleepover. The word “sleep-over” to a six-year-old bed-wetter is like what “cancer” means to an adult. But what if I told them I was a bed-wetter? At least with cancer, people gather at your bedside instead of running from it.
I thought of a way to escape. I would explain that I needed my mother's permission to spend the nights. But as I called my Mom, Heather stood beside me to listen. She granted permission! Then I would be sleeping in the same living room as the other girls. I didn't bring my own pajamas (睡衣)，so Mrs. Peters offered me Heather's pajamas.
As the other girls drifted into their sweet dreams, I tried to stay awake. “Do I need to go again? I'll stay up to go one more time.. .”.Of course , I finally fell asleep.
The next morning , I was the first to wake up. I was warm! I lay in panic for what seemed like hours before the other girls started to wake up. I did the only thing I could do — I pretended that the bed-wetting didn't happen. I got up, took off Heather's pajamas and changed into my clothes like the other girls.
Mrs. Peters walked into the room, and before she could say anything, she stepped right onto the pile of my wet pajamas. My heart stopped as I watched her face burn red. “WHO DID THIS?” She screamed, with a look so frightening. Should I answer? And that was when it happened — Mr. Peters came in and grabbed his wife , ‘‘Elvis Presley died!”
The news of the King's death overtook Mrs. Peters, and I ,was spared. I got home without the other girls knowing what had happened.
