Even I was scared to death by a word my mother said.It all started when my elder brother came home with a heavy bag of cherries （樱桃） a friend gave him. In order to spend a pleasant afternoon, my sister suggested we have a competition to see who could eat the most cherries in as short a time as possible and be the winner. We all jumped at her idea, and the competition began in no time. Our action had to be fast and we must know how to bite in the middle of the cherry to chew and spit the seed out losing no time. I realized that this wasn't a good game to play. And I suddenly found that I have swallowed more than one seed down to my stomach. Then Mother came and laughed and said to me, “tonight when you sleep, a cherry tree will grow out from your head." I was jittery and scared. I believed every word she said at that age. I was rather frightened that night thinking how I was going to make it to school the next morning if I had a tree on top of my head or how I would leave this world just like that because of the cherry seeds in my stomach. I couldn/t sleep the whole night.Well, the next morning, I woke up to my surprise , and discovered nothing had changed. My head was normal as it was. But one thing remains unchanged until this day. My love for cherries stays forever.22. Why did they start the cherry eating competition?A. Because they wanted to challenge their friends.B. Because their mother asked them to do that.C. Because they wanted to have a happy afternoon.D. Because they just wanted to please their brothers.23. What does the underlined word “jittery“ in Para 2 probably mean?A. Pleased.B. Disappointed.C. Lucky.D. Nervous.24. Why did the writer believe her mother/s words?A. Because her mother asked her to do that.B. Because she was too young at that time.C. Because her brother had the similar experience before.D. Because she wanted to have a good relationship with her mother.25. In this passage the writer wants to.A. introduce a kind of fruit to readers B. show her anger to her motherC. show the reason why she hates the fruit D. tell an interesting story of her childhoodCIman, the last Sumatran rhino（犀牛）in Malaysia, died in 2019 bringing the endangered species one step closer to extinction. Now, Malaysian scientists are hoping to use tissues and cells from Iman and other dead rhinos to bring the population back.Before the three rhinos （the last survivors in Malaysia） died, we got their cells, and the cells are still alive which is why I'm quite confident/ Dr. Lokman said. "If we don't have any cells, or have just tissue that isn't living anymore, we wouldn't be able to do anything. But now we have a living thing that we can use.”The cells came from the rhinos' hearts, lungs and brains. What is the most important is that the team collected stem cells （干细胞）.One possible approach is to develop these stem cells into an egg （卵子）and sperm （精子）,to create an embryo （胚胎）that will be placed into a surrogate mother （代孕母亲）.She will likely be another rhino, either a Sumatran rhino from another country or another species. The other method is to take the egg of a surrogate animal, remove the nucleus （细胞核），and join it with a Sumatran rhino's body cell. This technique was famously used to clone Dolly the sheep in 1996. Dr. Lokman and his colleagues are trying both ways. The team is still in the early stages; next, they need to find a suitable surrogate female.Sumatran rhinos are listed as critically endangered by the World Wildlife Fund. There are less than 80 alive in Indonesia and Thailand. The fall in the population was first caused by hunting. Later, the situation was worsened by the loss of habitats and human activity. Unfortunately, there are now only five remaining rhino species worldwide, and all are threatened. Some sub-species have already died out; the western black rhino was declared extinct in 2013. And it is a pity that the last male northern white rhino died in 2019.26. What makes it possible for the team to bring the Sumatran rhinos population back?A. They have collected three rhinos living cells.B. They have carried out similar experiments before.C. There is a baby Sumatran rhino living in Malaysia.D. There are still some cells alive in the dying rhino. 29. What do the two methods have in common?A. Both have been used for Dolly.B. Both change the cell's nucleus.E. Both involve a surrogate female.D. Both rely on the Sumatran rhinos' stemcells.30. What feeling does the author express in the last paragraph?A. Her admiration for cloning technology. B. Her satisfaction with the scientists/ efforts.C. Her disappointment at protection measures. D. Her deep worry about the rhino population.31. What's the main idea of the passage?A. Last Sumatran rhino in Malaysia has died.B. Scientists hope to clone Sumatran rhinos.C. Stem cells are giving birth to new rhino babies.D. Sumatran rhinos are listed as critically endangered.DHow wonderful would it be if new technology could help the physically challenged? A smart wearable device that enables people with speaking disabilities to communicate normally is giving hope to those without a voice.Tao Luqi, a research fellow at Chongqing University, used a material called graphene （石墨烯）to produce an artificial throat with a tiny sensor （感应器）that allows people with speech impairments （障碍）to speak normally, according to a paper published in Nature Communications in 2017. Tao has continued his work on the device for the last four years.“Although the speaking impaired people can't speak, their throats can vibrate （振 动）, Tao told The Paper. /zlf I put a device made of graphene into the throat of a person, it can detect the vibrations and make sounds using electrical signals/Even whispers, screams and coughs at different frequencies （频率）can be recorded and encoded （编码）by the device, and it can arrange them into groups. When the device detects the sounds in a particular group, it will reproduce the words, phrases or sentences, according to Tao.“But the speaking impaired people need to classify their own language sounds in groups and memorize them, just like typing keys on a keyboard/ Tao said. Tao/s artificial throat has brought the possibilities of graphene to reality. It*s been 17 years since the discovery of graphene, and the world has been waiting for the "wonder material” to provide innovations （仓U新）.At only the width of an atom （原子），graphene is the thinnest material known to humans and also the strongest. The material is also an efficient conductor （导体）of heat and electricity, and is ultra-lightweight, China Daily reported."Graphene really does have fantastic properties and its potential is huge/ said Khasha Ghaffarzadeh, a director at UK-based research consultancy IDTechEx.China has emerged as a key country for production. Around 3,000 Chinese companies are exploring uses for graphene, according to government statistics in 2018, while half of the world's graphene-related patents （专利）have been filed in China, according to China Daily."It's a brand-new science, and China is trying to take the lead/ said Neill Ricketts, chief executive at Versarien, a UK-based advanced material company.32. How does the artificial throat give those who are speaking impaired the ability to speak?A. It makes their throat vibrate.B. It transforms vibrations into readable words.C. It detects sounds normal people cannot hear.D. It makes sounds based on the vibrations it detects.33. What do the speaking impaired people need to do to use the device?A. Identify frequencies of different sounds. B. Arrange the words into sentences.C. Memorize their sound groups.D. Type the words with the device.34. What can we know about graphene?A. It is widely used in innovations.B. It is the thinnest and strongest material ever found.C. It can improve the efficiency of heat and electricity.D. It weighs less than any other material.35. What is the second to last paragraph mainly about?A. Graphene's potential widespread use in China.B. Development of technology using graphene.C. Graphene-related patents in China.D. China's leading role in graphene production. 第二节 （共5小题；每题2分，总分值10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中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 Not to Be AwkwardNot all of us are outgoing and ready to take the world by storm. 36 This usually happens when a person is still in his or her teen years and going through the socialization process.
