more by the detours(绕行路)in life than by the narrow road toward goals.I like this image.But it was quite by accident that I discovered the deep meaning of his words.For years we made the long drive from our home in Seattle to my parents home in Boise in nine hours.We traveled the way most people do:the fastest,shortest,easiest road,especially when I was alone with four noisy,restless kids who hate confinement(限制)and have strong opinions about everything.Road trips felt risky,so I would drive fast,stopping only when I had to.We would stick to the freeways and arrive tired.But then Banner,our lamb was born.He was rejected by his mama days before our planned trip to Boise.I had two choices:leave Banner with my husband,or take him with me.My husband made the decision for me.That is how I found myself on the road with four kids,a baby lamb and nothing but my everlasting optimism to see me through.We took the country roads out of necessity.We had to stop every hour,let Banner shake out his legs and feed him.高考 2020 The kids chased him and one another.Theyd get back in the car breathless and energized,smelling fresh from the cold air.We explored side roads,catching grasshopper in waist-high grass.Even if we simply looked out of the car window,at baby pigs following their mother,or fish leaping out of the water,it was better than the best ride down the freeway.Here was life.And new horizons(见识).We eventually arrived at my parents doorstep astonishingly fresh and full of stories.I grew brave with the trip back home and creative with my disciplining technique.On an empty section of road,everyone started quarreling.I stopped the car,ordered all kids out and told them to meet me up ahead.I parked my car half a mile away and read my book in sweet silence.Some road trips are by necessity fast and straight.But that trip with Banner opened our eyes to a world available to anyone adventurous enough to wander around and made me realize that a detour may uncover the best part of a journey-and the best part of yourself.21 Why did the author use to take freeways to her parents home?A It was less tiring.B It would be faster and safer.C Her kids would feel less confined.D She felt better with other drivers nearby.22 The author stopped regularly on the country roads to _ A relax in the fresh air B take a deep breath C take care of the lamb D let the kids play with Banner 23 What does the author discover from the trip according to Paragraph 6?A Freeways are where beauty hides.B Getting close to nature adds to the joy of life.C Enjoying the beauty of nature benefits ones health.D One should follow side roads to watch wild animals.24 Why did the author ask the kids to get out of the car on t高考 2020 heir way back home?A To give herself some time to read.B To order some food for them.C To play a game with them.D To let them cool down.B Along the river banks of the Amazon and the Orinoco there lives a bird that swims before it can fly,flies like a fat chicken,eats green leaves,has the stomach of a cow and has claws(爪)on its wings when young.They build their homes about 4.6m above the river,an important feature(特征)for the safety of the young.It is called the hoatzin.In appearance,the birds of both sexes look very much alike with brown on the back and cream and red on the underside.The head is small,with a large set of feathers on the top,bright red eyes,and blue skin.Its nearest relatives are the common birds,cuckoos.Its most striking feature,though,is only found in the young.Baby hoatzins have a claw on the leading edge of each wing and another at the end of each wing tip.Using these four claws,together with the beak(喙),they can climb about in the bushes,looking very much like primitive birds must have done.When the young hoatzins have learned to fly,they lose their claws.During the drier months between December and March hoatzins fly about the forest in groups of 20 to 30 birds,but in April,when the rainy season begins,they collect together in smaller living units of two to seven birds for producing purposes.25 What is the text mainly about?A Hoatzins in dry and rainy seasons.B The relatives and enemies of hoatzins.C Primitive birds and hoatzins of the Amazon.D The appearance and living habits of hoatzins.26 Young hoatzins are different from their parents in that A

them climb.B They could fly long distances.C They had four wings like hoatzins.高考 2020 D They had a head with long feathers on the top.28 Why do hoatzins collect together in smaller groups when the
