She was considered one of the most popular girls in her class. She was very pretty, but that was not why she was considered popular. She was popular because she was known to be among the brightest in her class. She could do the most cartwheels in a row, but mostly, she had the talent to dance.In February, she entered the schooPs dance competition and won the first place. Her whole class was there to support her. Since that day, she had been the class attraction. In December, the school was holding another dance competition, but there had been a change in the competition. The competition had to be done in pairs.Jenny's class was looking up to her with high expectations of her winning again this year. On the other hand, Jenny was unsure of this competition outcome. She wanted to enter the competition, but she had never danced with a partner before. She decided to ask some of the boys in her class to enter with her. They all said no to her because they did not know how to dance. Jenny was becoming hesitant about joining.She finally decided to turn to one of her closest friends, Carl. Jenny and Carl had known each other since the first grade. Carl was unwilling to join at first because he also didn't know how to dance. Jenny insisted. He eventually agreed to join the competition. Jenny was happy and relieved. However, she was still worried because she knew her class was counting on her to win this year's competition.All she needed was some time and practice in order to increase her chances of winning. This time, it was going to be more of a challenge considering the fact that Carl was not a good dancer. The competition was in two months, and only time could predict her chances of winning.After selecting Carl as her partner, Jenny needed to start planning for the dance competition at her school.Jenny and Carl went up to the stage and were ready to perform.听力答案：1-5 CBBCA 6-10ABCAA 11-15 BAB AB 16-20 BCCAC听第6段材料，回答第6、7题。6.

It's not going to work like that anymore. Nobody was going anywhere. So I had to figure out what to do to contribute responsibly to a story that has affected everybody in the world. I soon realized it meant working in my own backyard, which for me means the Midwest. I started driving all over, sleep some nights in my truck. I was looking for what the virus meant to people in “flyover country”, a part of county that is often ignored.I had to change the way I work. How do you photograph people from a distance? How do you enter people's intimate spaces responsibly?I began using a drone. I would call out to people and say, Hey, do you mind if I use my coronavirus social-distance flying camera to take your picture? Being Midwesterners, the response was usually, Do what you got to do. The drone, which I flew relatively low to the ground, allowed me to take pictures from a distance. But it also amplified the dystopian（反乌托邦），surreal mood that we're all grappling with now.After I took photos, I'd leave a note with my contact information on the person's car, on the front step or in the mailbox. Td say, contact me if you want to tell me more about whafs going on in your life, and ril send you a picture. I was moved by the responses I received, long emails from people who wanted to have their stoiy told or just needed someone to talk to. I saw two people chatting in a front yard, one sitting on the steps, the other in a chair six feet away. It looked like an ordinary thing, but then I received emails from them. One worked in an ICU; they'd been close friends their whole lives, and now they were both really struggling.Everybody's got an important story to tell. To meet people and photograph them, 1 decided for myself that I was an essential worker. I felt so grateful that I had photography, because I could be out in the world, I could see things for myself. I had a sense of purpose.4. Which of the following best explains “ easy Jiger“ underlined in paragraph 1?A. Talk to people.B. Go to the zoo.C. Calm down.D. Give up your job.5. What's the attitude of Midwesterners towards being taken by a drone?A. Anxious.B. Embarrassed.C. Sensitive.D. Approving.6. What does paragraph 4 mainly tell us?A. Photos and stories help to reveal the truth of life.B. People wrote notes to the writer.C. The two people in a picture were talking happily.D. The need to communicate is a key characteristic of human society.7. What's the main idea of the passage?A. People desired to talk with each other.B. Photography is an aid to understanding the world.C. The writer took photos with a drone.D. A drone plays a vital role in aerial photography.CI grew up in the Great Lakes State, and fbr many years now, during my annual summer, visit back to Michigan, I'm always happy about what I don't see. I don't see crowds of Californians rushing lovely lakeside towns like Petoskey or Glen Arbor. I don't see hundreds of New Yorkers playing about Lake Michigan or coming down the steep white sands of Sleeping Bear Dunes.No offense to the masses on both coasts, but I've always been glad the original charms of northwest Michigan felt like my secret-or at least a secret held by a smaller group of people, largely from the Midwest.Lately, however, I've been thinking about the downside of being out of sight and out of mind.Most people seldom think about Lakes Michigan, Huron, Superior, Erie, and Ontario. Many can't even name all five. But they should care about them because, as Tim Folger writes in this month's cover story, the Great Lakes are "arguably the continent's most precious resource, unmeasurably more valuable than oil, gas, or coal.”Together the lakes hold more than 20 percent of the surface freshwater on Earth and 84 percent of the surface freshwater in North America. Almost 40 million Americans and Canadians “drink from the lakes, fish on them, transport goods over them, farm their shores, and work in cities that wouldn't exist“ without them, Folger writes.And yet we abuse them terribly: polluting them, introducing invasive species, allowing fertilizer runoff（径流） to create algal（藻类）blooms large enough that they can be seen from space. Climate change means the lakes don't freeze as much as they used to, and severe storms have become more frequent.So read Folger's story. Appreciate the beauty of the landscape in the amazing photos by Keith Ladzinski. Become an advocate to protect our Great Lakes.8. What can be inferred from paragraph 1?A. The Great Lakes State is crowded.B. Fewer visitors are favourable there in summer.C. The writer hopes to play about Lake Michigan.D. The writer likes the warm atmosphere.9. What does Tim Folger think of the Great Lakes?A. They are as important as oil.B. They are infinitely superior to oil, gas or coal.C. All Americans and Canadians depend on them to live.D. They are the most important resource in the world.10. Which of the following is the current situation of the Great Lakes?A. The lakes hold 20 percent of the surface freshwater on Earth.B. They don't freeze at all because of climate changes.C. Algal blooms are invisible from space.D. People don't treat them well.11. What is the purpo
