''True friendship is like sound health. The value of it is seldom known until it is lost," Charles

Caleb Colton said. Just like in any other relationship, arguments and fights are also part of friendship. You will hardly find fiends who have never fought with one another. Whatever the reason is, if a person feels that he is responsible for causing the differences, it is important that he should say sorry to his friend.

Though you can use the email, text messages or chat for expressing your apology, the good old

way of saying sorry to your friend through a letter will surely have a great effect on him. This will make your friend realize that your efforts of saying sorry are genuine and that you really care about him.

Points to Remember:

Timing: Write the letter at the proper time. It is not advisable to put it off for too long.

Words: While you are writing the letter, what matters most is that you truly feel sorry.

Sequence (顺序): Always begin by apologizing and saying sorry for your mistake. Then explain

to him your side of the story. In the third and last paragraph, talk about what his friendship means to you and make a promise of not repeating the mistake.

Delivery: You should either post the letter or deliver it personally or through someone else. You

can also keep it at a location where your friend will be able to find it easily.

Some people may try to point out the fiends mistake while writing the letter. Avoid this

completely, as it can make matters worse. The letter has to be brief and should only talk about the subject that has led to your apology. Keep patient and do not expect immediate results. In some cases, it may take time for the person to forgive and forget.

23. What is the author's purpose of mentioning the saying in the first paragraph?

A. To let readers study the famous saying. B. To introduce the topic of the passage.

C. To show who is Charles Caleb Colton. D. To tell readers the importance of health.

24. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word "genuine"?

A. true B. general C. open D. careful

25. What is the best way to apologize to others?

A. Sending an email. B. Sending text messages.

C. Writing a letter. D. Chatting online.

C

My father and I were both angry. "Never set foot in this house again! "shouted my father. With

tears in my eyes, I rushed out to the street.

I walked aimlessly. A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me I seemed to see

my childhood from another space: happy.

But now. I don't know whether it is because I have grown up or because my dad is getting old.

We have different ways of thinking. He always puts his opinions on me. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.

I walked in the streets. My heart was cold on this hot summer night. As I walked on, there were

fewer and fewer people in the streets, until I had only the street lights with me. When I finally reached the building where I lived, I saw that the light was still on.

I thought to myself: "Is my father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me? "

In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, my dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he

thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps. All the lights were off except my father's.

Dad was always like this. Maybe he didn't know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he

never showed any moments of regret. However, after an argument he has the habit of tucking me underneath the covers while I am sleeping.

This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to

do has become his second nature.

The light was still on. "Am I wrong? "I whispered, maybe … With the key in my hand, I was as

nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that there wasn't the iron door that I had imagined between us at all. Love--- it’s second to none.

26. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The father didn't like his son's stamp collecting.

B. The son and his father needed communication.

C. The father opened the door for the son when he came hack

D. The boy fully understood why he and his father had different thinking.

27. Which is the best order of the following according to what happened in the passage?

a. I opened the door and entered the house.

b. Sadly I ran out into the street.

c. I reached the place where I lived and saw my home still brightly lit.

d. I thought of my father's kindness towards me.

e. I walked about in the street without any aim.

A. b, e, c, d, a B. b, e, d, c, a C. b, e, a, c, d D. b, e, c, a, d

28. What conclusion can you come to after reading the passage?

A. The father treats his son in an unfair way.

B. The father is neither kind nor rude to his son.

C. The father loves his son very much in fact.

D. The father is always finding his son wrong.

Phil Wise's heart raced as he opened one of the transport tubes. He and a team of scientists

stepped back as a young Tasmanian devil (袋獾) named Oddity came out. Oddity took a cautious look around and then ran into the forest on Maria Island.

Wise is a wildlife scientist from the Save the Tasmanian Devil Program. The scientists working

with this program study Tasmanian devils, monitor their health, and track the devils found in the wild. Oddity and 14 others were raised in a reserve and then brought to Maria Island to be released (释放) into the wild. Though they are raised in zoos all over the world, devils live wild only in Tasmania. They are important to the ecosystem(生态系统) because they eat dead animals they find, which helps clean up the environment. Devils also eat animals such as wallabies, wombats, and possums, helping to keep those populations balanced.

But a cancer. called Devil Facial Tumor Disease (DFTD) is killing devils on mainland Tasmania,

endangering the species. The goal of the scientists who released-Oddity and the others was to create a population of disease-free Tasmanian devils on Maria Island. Oddity is a part of this "insurance population" of devils raised in zoos and wildlife reserves. This means if the facial disease causes the Tasmanian devils to die out in the wild, devils like Oddity can be sent back into disease-free areas of Tasmania, giving devils a chance to survive.

The scientists chose Maria Island for the release because there is no DFTD there. It is separated

from mainland Tasmania by the ocean. Devils from the rest of Tasmania can't get there, which prevents the facial disease from spreading. Oddity started his new life on Maria Island. Life on this island off the coast of Tasmania was a big change for Oddity and the others. These devils had little experience with other kinds of animals and had to explore the land and find new bones. Wise and his fellow scientists monitored Oddity and the 14 other Tasmanian devils. The animals did so well that 13 more devils were released. The 28 original Tasmanian devils have reproduced; there are now around 80 devils. They are doing well on Maria Island, and the plan is considered a success.

Wise says he is "extremely happy to know that animals are getting a chance to be free in the wild

in an area that is free of DFTD. It is the ultimate aim of all who work to conserve endangered species."

29. Why did Wise and his team release the Tasmanian devils like Oddity to Maria Island?

A. To find out a treatment of DFTD.

B. To create a population of disease-free Tasmanian devils.

C. To track the devils found in the wild.

D. To monitor their health.

30. What probably made Maria Island chosen for the release?

A. Its rich wildlife. B. Its improved ecosystem.

C. Its natural resources. D. Its geographic location.

31. How was the released Tasmanian devils' life?

A. Their safety was uncertain. B. Their number was going up.

C. They hardly enjoyed freedom. D. They got well again from DFTD.

32. What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. How to raise Tasmanian devils. B. A disease attacking Tasmanian devils.

C. A program to save Tasmanian devils. D. What is Tasmanian devils.

More Chinese universities are opening their libraries to the public, allowing people to enjoy

reading during normal time and the vacations.

33 Wang Ling, a student in Sun Yat-sen University is one of them. "Members of the public

come to our libraries more for sightseeing than reading, "said Wang." They sometimes even bring their kids along, and take photos as if it were a place of interest." 34 Being short of space is a common problem for university libraries in China.

However, this is not the only reason why students dislike their libraries being open to members of the public. 35 Chen Jie, 18, a student in Tongji University, is one. who would be against opening to the public. ‘I have been to a public library before. People were chatting loudly or speaking on cell phone so you can hardly read," Chen said. She notices teachers doing serious reading and feels their concentration has influenced her. "If too many strangers stay here, the whole library will be a noisy place and it's difficult for us to study quietly," she said.

36 Some experts consider that university libraries can prevent the public from entering certain

areas." We might keep magazines for academic research only for teachers and students," said Zhu Lina, library director in Jinan University.

37 "It's possible that a member of the public can order a book in our library over the Internet.

We'll send it to a public library close to their home." Ge Jianxiong, the library director in Fudan University said.

Paying for bus rides with plastic usually makes people think of plastic bus cards. But one

Indonesian city has decided to accept plastic recyclable waste in place of money for city buses.

Surabaya, Indonesia's second largest city, located on the eastern end of the country’s main island Java, made this decision in April, 2018. Now, locals can pay for their bus rides by putting plastic cups or bottles directly on the bus. A two-hour bus ride costs 10 plastic cups or 5 bottles.

Indonesia is the second largest ocean plastic polluter, producing up to 2.4 million tons of plastic waste into the oceans every year according to a report. Only in Surabaya nearly 400 tons of plastic

waste is produced every day. The head of Surabaya’s transportation department said," With this decision, we hope to raise public awareness about environment, especially people’s awareness about plastic waste."

Each city bus can collect up to 550 pounds of plastic bottles and cups every day. The collected

bottles are sold to recycling companies and the money earned from it goes toward running the bus companies and providing money for green spaces in the city. This is certainly turning rubbish into a national treasure.

The decision is part of the city's purpose to become plastic waste-free by 2020. In order to

encourage local people to take buses, the city also added the new Suroboyo buses. The new buses are air-conditioned, comfortable and easy for elderly and disabled passengers to get on and off.

The programme is well received. People in Surabaya said," We can reduce waste so it doesn’t

pile up at home because we can make good use of it. It is a win-win situation."

This type of programme can be a model for other cities worldwide and encourage citizens to

recycle their plastic waste.

58. How much plastic waste does a two-hour bus ride cost?

59. What are the new Suroboyo buses like?

60. Do you think this programme in Surabaya is useful? Why?

An unforgettable experience

Due to the impact of COVID-19，we had taken online courses for a long time. In this special time,one thing had a deep influence on me.

As the constant use of the computer, so much entertainment news on the Internet can be easily seen. I found myself couldn't help reading various web pages just for fun not only in but also after class.However hard I had tried I failed to concentrate on my studies Depressed and disappointed,I blamed it on the Internet rather than myself . Realizing complaining made no sense,I adjusted my actions and turned to the teacher and parents whenever feeling difficult to control myself.It was with the help of my teachers and parents that I made great progress,concentrating on my studies.

The lesson I have drawn from this experience is that only by bravely facing problems and taking actions actively can we succeed.
