He was a farmer in the Midwest and he spent his winters selling insurance and daily necessities. Daddy could really talk with anyone and his favorite thing was to find out their incomes. Once we were at Chicago's O'Hare Airport this was when you could still be escorted to your boarding gate. Daddy was sitting with me as I waited for my flight to Fort Lauderdale. A Russian guy sat down next to daddy. The gentleman could not speak a word of English but this did not stop my dad. He found out his business, how many children he had and, of course, how much he made.I used to feel embarrassed by this. Last year, I was home visiting with my husband and my twins. When I was in the car with my mom, she told me a story about how she was in the doctor's office with daddy and how he was talking to the others in the waiting room as usual. She said he started talking to a young man in a wheel chair who couldn't talk, couldn't move his arms or head, and really couldn't do anything. But daddy was asking questions getting the young man to smile in response. And he carried on like that with the disabled man till he was called back to the doctor's office.When the young man and his father got up to see the doctor, the father of the young man came and shook my dad's hand and said,“Thank you for speaking to my son. Most people just turn away when they see him.My father ended up dying later that month because of a sudden heart attack. Fortunately all 9 of his children had been home that summer to visit. I told this story about his love of talking at the funeral.24. Why did the author say her father never knew a stranger? A. Her father was well known as a salesman. B. Her father treated everyone as his good friend. C. Her father was good at communicating with others. D. Her father only lived in his familiar surroundings.25. What does the underlined word“escortedprobably mean in paragraph 1? A. Accompanied. B. Forbidden. C. Guided. D. Forced.26. What changed the author's attitude towards her father's action? A. Her father was praised by many neighbors. B. Her mother asked her to be a nice daughter. C. Her father brought happiness to a disabled man. D. Her father has been seriously ill for a long time.27.

To introduce ways to make friends.CAll animals play. Running and rolling are ways for them to have fun. But it also seems to be how they communicate and strengthen bonds with each other. When a dog comes up to another dog, front legs bowed or his tail high or wagging, his friend knows he wants to play. But new research shows that this play behavior is surprisingly similar when horses and dogs play.“Up to now, most studies have focused on dog-human play due to the important implications that such studies have in understanding the special relationship we establish with our pets, researchers from Italy wrote in the journal Behavioural Processes. “Here, we focused on social play between dogs and horses. To study communication among different species, Elisabetta Palagi and her colleagues from the University of Pisa found 20 YouTube videos of dogs and horses playing where their interactions(互动)lasted at least 30 seconds. They analyzed the videos, looking for specific patterns of play. They found that while playing, both dogs and horses often had relaxed, open mouths, which is a common playful facial expression in animals. Some also copied each others' movements, like pretending to bite, playing with an object, or rolling on their backs on the ground. The team also found that the dogs and horses copied each other's facial expressions. This behavior, called rapid facial mimicry, has been seen before in dogs and sun bears, points out National Geographic. But it has never been documented between animals of different species.“A 2000-pound horse can play with a relatively tiny dog because the two are able to communicate their intentions. It's an important study because it shows how two animals who look and behave so differently can manage to discuss how to play in a way that's comfortable for both, Barbara Smuts, a behavioral ecologist at the University of Michigan, told National Geographic.28. How does a dog express his intention to play? A. By bowing his back legs. B. By crossing his legs. C. By waving his tail high. D. By raising his head.29. How did Palagi's team study communication among different species? A. By referring to some books about animal species. B. By analyzing videos of dogs playing with horses. C. By playing with some dogs and horses separately. D. By conducting an experiment on dogs and sun bears.30. What does Palagi's study find? A. Dogs like to play with horses best. B. Dogs and horses imitate each other's actions. C. Animals show happiness by opening their mouths. D. Different animals have different patterns of play.31. What's Smuts' attitude to Palagi's research? A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Opposed. D. Unconcerned.DChinese telecommunications giant Huawei officially launched the 2.0 version of its self-developed operating system (OS) on Wednesday night, the HarmonyOS. The move paved the way for the Chinese firm to challenge Google's and Apple's role in current and future OS ecosystems.Among the major advantages, the HarmonyOS, with a highly scalable(可扩展的)distributed platform, can be applied to multiple devices, including smartphones, computers, and other electronic devices, the company said.Analysts said the OS will do a lot to promote Huawei's transformation into being a software service provider. Huawei's founder and CEO Ren Zhengfei said that the company was focusing on software because future development in the field was fundamentally “outside of US control and we will have greater independence and autonomy(自主权). Ren called on the company's staff to “dare to lead the world in software.“The success of a software system will always have to rely on hardware(硬件), but currently, Huawei doesn't have enough hardware to support its software ambitions that's the most difficult part, said Jiang Junmu, chief writer at a news website. Once as the world's largest smartphone maker, Huawei's domestic smartphone market share has continued to drop in recent months. Liang Zhenpeng, an industry analyst, said that as an OS aimed for the Internet of Things(IoT) era, the HarmonyOS may need more time and equipment to test than the OS for smartphones, and that will take at least two to three years.Moreover, Liang noted that an ecosystem will always be the decisive factor for the success of an operating system. “Does the HarmonyOS have enough applications that can attract consumers to update to the OS? That's a question, Liang said. So far, more than 300 application and service partners, 1000 hardware partners, and 500,000 developers have participated in the construction of the Harmony ecosystem.32. What highlights the HarmonyOS? A. It operates faster than Google system. B. It works on a diverse range of equipment. C. It provides users with a secure experience. D. It has different versions in different countries.33. What does Ren Zhengfei convey in his words? A. Huawei's transformation is challenging. B. Huawei will break its dependence on the US. C. The company's staff need to improve their skills.D. Huawei is seeking a new software service provider.34. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The future software ambition of Huawei. B. The success of developing the HarmonyOS. C. Smartphone sales in the domestic market. D. The difficulties in promoting the HarmonyOS.35. What does Liang expect partners and developers to do? A. Create enough applications. B. Update the original devices. C. Establish a HarmonyOS ecosystem. D. Cooperate with experts in various fields. 第二节：七选五 (共5小题,每题2.5分,总分值12.5分)根据短文内容,选出能填入空白处的最正确选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Teach RespectRespect is one of the most important, fundamental skills a child can ever learn. A sense of respect is important for succeeding in school, holding down a job, and having adult relationships. 36 . So it is parents' responsibility to teach their kids these skills.You should set a good example to your kids. When it comes to teaching children respect, it all boils down to this. Children are easily affected by what they see. 37 . Live a kind, caring, respectful life and your children will learn that this is the way adults are expected to behave.You should encourage activities that require sharing and cooperation. One of the reasons that respect is so important is that it's needed to form helpful friendships and relationships with others. Teach your children that respect allows them to build bridges by giving them fun opportunities to work with teammates and partners toward a mutual(共同的)goal. If they get rude, warn them. 38 .You should control your own negative emotions. Children don't have the argumentative skills that adults do. 39 . Worse, it can teach them that it's OK to yell or threaten other people when they become frustrated. Show them that difficult situations are best conquered with a cool head. 40 . Patience is a sign of respect. It may take some children longer to learn how to behave respectfully around others. Becoming impatient with children only teaches them to become impatient people, so instead take time to explain the problem to your children.A. You should be patient B. If they keep it up, end the activity C. You should read some stories about respect to you
