【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据Rate部分中“The reduced student rate applies to full-time students registered at a university or college anywhere in the world.(学生折扣适用于在世界任何地方的大学或学院注册的全日制学生。)”可知，学生折扣适用的是大学或学院注册的全日制学生，题干中的高中生不适合该折扣率。同时根据本段中“Standard Rate: One session: $1,400; Both sessions: $2,400 (标准收费：一学期：$1,400；两学期：2400美元)”可知，高中生不符合学生折扣收费标准，适用于标准收费，两学期共计2400美元。故选A。

The history of life on earth has been a history of interaction between living things and their surroundings. To a large extent (程度), the physical form and the habits of the earth’s vegetation and its animal life have been shaped by the environment. Considering the whole span of earthly time, the opposite effect, in which life actually modifies its surroundings, has been relatively slight (轻微的). Only in the present century has one species—man got significant power to change the nature of his world.
During the past quarter century this power has not only become increasingly great but it has changed in character. The most alarming of all man’s assaults (侵犯) upon the environment is the contamination (污染) of air, earth, rivers, and sea with dangerous and even deadly materials. This pollution is for the most part irrecoverable. In this now universal contamination of the environment, chemicals are the wicked partners of radiation (辐射) in changing the very nature of the world, the very nature of its life.
It took hundreds of millions of years to produce the life that now lives on the earth. Given time not in years but in millennia (千年), life adjusted and a balance has been reached. But in the modern world there is no time.
I don’t mean that chemical insecticides (杀虫剂) must never be used. However, we have to admit that we have put poisonous and biologically harmful chemicals indiscriminately (恣意地) into the hands of persons largely or wholly ignorant of their possible harm. We have forced enormous numbers of people to contact these poisons, without their permission and often without their knowledge. We admit, furthermore, that we have allowed these chemicals to be used with little or no advance investigation of their effect on soil, water, wildlife, and man himself. Future generations are unlikely to forgive our lack of concern for the integrity (完好无损) of the natural world that supports all life.
24. What does the underlined word “modified” in the first paragraph mean
A. destroy B. change C. explore D. maintain
25. Which of the following does the least harm to the environment
A chemicals B. radiation C. insecticides D. vegetation
26. According to the text, what can we learn about the environment
A. Chemicals must not be used for the sake of the environment.
B. The environment is greatly affected by vegetation and animals.
C. The future generations are likely to lack concern for the environment.
D. The pollution of the environment is largely due to irresponsible humans.
27. What will the following paragraph probably talk about
A. What humans should do with chemicals for future generations.
B. How the environment affects the living things on the earth.
C. What kind of chemicals are less harmful to the environment.
D. How we humans make the best of chemicals to save the earth.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. D 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了地球生物和环境的相互作用和影响，人类对环境造成的污染和危害，以及对自然环境保护的重要性。人类的力量越来越大，但需要对使用化学物质进行更谨慎的考虑，关注自然环境和生物的完整性，以支持生命的可持续发展。
【24题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第一段中“To a large extent(程度), the physical form and the habits of the earth’s vegetation and its animal life have been shaped by the environment. (在很大程度上，地球上植物和动物的身体形态和习性是由环境塑造的。)”可知，在很大程度上，地球植被和动物生命的身体形态和习性都受到环境的塑造，生命改变环境造成的影响是微小的。故划线词与B选项“change(改变)”为同义词。故选B。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The most alarming of all man’s assaults(侵犯)upon the environment is the contamination(污染)of air, earth, rivers, and sea with dangerous and even deadly materials. (在人类对环境的所有破坏中，最令人担忧的是空气、土壤、河流和海洋受到危险甚至致命物质的污染。)”以及本段中“This pollution is for the most part irrecoverable. In this now universal contamination of the environment, chemicals are the wicked partners of radiation(辐射)in changing the very nature of the world, the very nature of its life.(这种污染在很大程度上是无法恢复的。在现在这种普遍的环境污染中，化学物质是辐射的邪恶伙伴，它改变了世界的本质，改变了生命的本质。)”以及最后一段中“However, we have to admit that we have put poisonous and biologically harmful chemicals indiscriminately(恣意地)into the hands of persons largely or wholly ignorant of their possible harm.(然而，我们必须承认，我们毫不顾忌地将有毒和对生物有害的化学物质放在了很大程度上或完全不了解它们可能带来的危害的人们手中。)”可知，化学物质，辐射以及杀虫剂都给环境带来了极大的害处和影响，因此推断D选项“vegetation(植被)”对环境造成的是最小的伤害。故选D。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“We admit, furthermore, that we have allowed these chemicals to be used with little or no advance investigation of their effect on soil, water, wildlife, and man himself. Future generations are unlikely to forgive our lack of concern for the integrity(完好无损)of the natural world that supports all life.(此外，我们承认，我们允许使用这些化学品，很少或根本没有事先调查它们对土壤、水、野生动物和人类本身的影响。我们对维持所有生命的自然世界的完整性缺乏关心，我们的后代是不可能原谅我们的。)”可知，由于人类很少或者根本没有事先调查化学品对环境的影响，以及缺乏对自然世界的关心因此才导致环境污染，即环境的污染主要是由于不负责任的人类造成的。故选D。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Future generations are unlikely to forgive our lack of concern for the integrity(完好无损)of the natural world that supports all life.(我们对维持所有生命的自然世界的完整性缺乏关心，我们的后代是不可能原谅我们的。)”可知，此处指出我们对生态环境造成的破坏，对自然完整性缺乏关心，我们的后代是不能原谅我们的，因此后文应该阐述为了子孙后代，人类应该如何处理化学品。A选项“What humans should do with chemicals for future generations.(为了子孙后代，人类应该如何处理化学品。)”符合题意。故选A。
C
It was rush hour in the morning. Heather Sant, 36, was driving her white 2012 Mazda on the road with her nine-year-old daughter and ten-year-old son in the back. Suddenly, a red pickup truck cut them off. Sant turned the wheel hard to the right, sending the Mazda slide off the road and down an embankment(路堤) that ended in a drop-off after about 50 feet. If the car didn’t stop, it would take off and dive into the road some 20 feet below. Then a bit of luck: as the car raced toward the edge, its undercarriage got stuck, stopping it suddenly.
The people inside, however, were far from safe. The car had come to rest on top of a retaining wall(护墙), balancing on the edge of disaster. One sudden move by anyone inside could throw the car off balance and send it over. Jacob Rodriguez watched everything in terror from the nearby truck company where he works. As an experienced sailor, just like every time he met shipwreck, he whispered a sailing saying “Ship, shipmates, self”, then immediately he and four other men ran to the car. They leaped onto the trunk(后备箱) to balance the weight as the terrified kids in the back seat watched.
Meanwhile, Julio and his nephew Marco, were driving to their jobs at nearby Premier Automotive. Julio jumped out of the car to help while Marco went to the shop, grabbed a strong rope, and returned to the car. He tied the Mazda to an F-350 truck that had been driven over by one of the other rescuers. With the car secured, the group carefully opened the back doors and helped the children out. But their departure shifted the cars weight, causing it to tip forward. The men, still on the trunk, begged Sant to jump into the back seat. She did and then inched out of the back door. Finally, the men carefully got off the trunk. Everyone was safe.
“Another foot” Rodriguez told USA Today, “and this would be a different story. ”
28. What most probably caused the traffic accident
A. The Mazda was overloaded. B. Sant was really speeding.
C. The wheel failed to work. D. The pickup cut in abruptly.
29. Why did the men ask Sant to move to the back seat
A. To open the back door of the car. B. To fasten the rope to the truck.
C. To keep the balance of the car. D. To help the men get off the trunk.
30. What does Rodriguez want to stress in the last paragraph
A. The timely help offered by rescuers.
B. The excellent cooperation of all the people.
C. The dangerous position where the car stopped.
D. The serious danger the rescuers faced.
31. Which of the following statements is consistent with the theme of the passage
A. Persistence will pay off. B. One in trouble, all to help.
C. Many hands make light work. D. Doing is better than saying.
【答案】28. D 29. C 30. C 31. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章描写了Heather Sant驾车外出，遭遇小货车抢道，致轿车于堤崖边，摇摇欲坠，危机四伏，幸亏周围及路过的陌生人慷慨施救，最终脱险的事情。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中Suddenly, a red pickup truck cut them off. Sant turned the wheel hard to the right, sending the Mazda slide off the road and down an embankment that ended in a drop-off after about 50 feet.可知突然，一辆红色的皮卡车挡住了他们的去路。Sant把方向盘猛地向右一转，马自达从路上滑了下去，滑下路堤，在大约50英尺（约合30米）的地方掉了下去。由此可知，最有可能导致交通事故的原因是小卡车突然出现。故选D。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中But their departure shifted the cars weight, causing it to tip forward. The men, still on the trunk, begged Sant to jump into the back seat. She did and then inched out of the back door. Finally, the men carefully got off the trunk. Everyone was safe.可知但是他们的离开改变了汽车的重量，导致它向前倾。那些人还在行李箱上，恳求Sant跳上后座。她照做了，然后从后门爬了出去。最后，他们小心翼翼地从后备箱上下来。每个人都是安全的。由此可知，男人们让Sant坐到后排是为了保持汽车的平衡。故选C。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Another foot,” Rodriguez told USA Today, “and this would be a different story. ”可知“再多一英尺，” Rodriguez告诉《今日美国》，“这将是一个不同的故事。”由此可推知，Rodriguez在最后一段想强调汽车停下来的位置有多么危险。故选C。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章描写了Heather Sant驾车外出，遭遇小货车抢道，致轿车于堤崖边，摇摇欲坠，危机四伏，幸亏周围及路过的陌生人慷慨施救，最终脱险的事情。由此可知，B选项“一方有难，八方支援”符合文章主题。故选B。
D
Believed to have existed for more than 60 million years, crested ibises (朱鹮) are one of the oldest species of bird on Earth. Due to pollution and other human activities, the birds began to disappear in the 1960s.
In 1981, seven crested ibises were found in Yangxian county in Hanzhong, Shaanxi province. They were believed to be the last remaining ones worldwide.
But now, they have come back from the edge of extinction. May 23 marked the 40th anniversary of the rediscovery of the crested ibis. Researchers said that the number has risen to more than 7,000 worldwide. There are 5,000 crested ibises in Shaanxi alone.
“The secret for the rare and inspirational case of successfully saving crested ibises from a small population is the country’s onsite protection approach adopted at the very beginning,” Zhang Yueming, an expert who works at the crested ibis nature reserve bureau (局) in Yangxian, told China Daily.
On the fourth day after the discovery of the seven crested ibises, the local government issued a series of emergency notices to protect crested ibises. For example, hunting, cutting down trees, setting off explosives in the mountains, or using fertilizers (肥料) in the birds’ foraging (觅食) areas were not allowed.
Later, it also established the Qinling No.1 protection station and sent four people to guard the seven birds. These guardians worked day and night. In the daytime, they observed and recorded the birds’ habits and characteristics; at night, the main job was to keep them safe.
The government also restored more than 233 hectares (公顷) of natural wetlands, 100 hectares of winter paddy fields (稻田), more than 2,664 hectares of hills for afforestation (植树造林), dredged (疏浚) 30 km of channels and planted 30,000 trees.
New methods were used to protect crested ibises, mainly including artificial breeding (人工饲养) and reintroduction. In 1990, the Shaanxi Crested Ibis Rescue and Breeding Center was established. At the center, crested ibises are artificially bred and can receive timely treatment when they are sick. Over the next 30 years, they also explored and created a complete system of artificial breeding techniques, laying a foundation for the birds’ later reintroduction into the wild.
“China’s protection of crested ibises is a paragon (典范) in the world’s history of preserving endangered wildlife,” Zhang told China Daily.
32. When did Yangxian local government start to protect crested ibises
A. In the 1960s. B. In 1981. C. In 1990. D. In 2020.
33. Which of the following is NOT what the government did
A. It turned natural wetlands into fields and forests.
B It sent some people to keep an eye on the birds.
C. It forbade using fertilizers in the bird’s habitats.
D. It stopped locals cutting trees and hunting.
34. What plays a key role in crested ibises returning to the wild
A. The discovery of the seven birds.
B. The scientific artificial breeding system.
C. The timely treatment to the sick birds.
D. The notices from the local government.
35. What is the suitable title of the text
A. Promising future of crested ibises.
B. Rediscovery of endangered wildlife.
C. Conservation of rare birds.
D. Comeback of crested ibises.
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. B 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了朱鹮的回归，以及中国在这件事上的努力和所取得的成就。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“In 1981, seven crested ibises were found in Yangxian county in Hanzhong, Shaanxi province. (1981年，在陕西汉中阳县发现了7只朱鹮)”以及第五段中“On the fourth day after the discovery of the seven crested ibises, the local government issued a series of emergency notices to protect crested ibises. (七只朱鹮被发现后的第四天，当地政府发布了一系列保护朱鹮的紧急通知)”可知，当地政府在1981年开始保护朱鹮。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第七段中“The government also restored more than 233 hectares (公顷) of natural wetlands, 100 hectares of winter paddy fields (稻田), more than 2,664 hectares of hills for afforestation (植树造林), dredged (疏浚) 30 km of channels and planted 30,000 trees.( 政府还恢复了233多公顷的天然湿地，100多公顷的冬季稻田，2664多公顷的丘陵造林，疏浚了30公里的渠道，种植了3万棵树。)”可知，为保护朱鹮政府恢复了天然湿地，冬季稻田，丘陵造林，疏浚了渠道。A选项“It turned natural wetlands into fields and forests.(把天然湿地变成了田地和森林)”与原文信息不符。故选A。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Over the next 30 years, they also explored and created a complete system of artificial breeding techniques, laying a foundation for the birds’ later reintroduction into the wild.(在接下来的30年里，他们还探索并创造了一套完整的人工繁殖技术体系，为后来将这种鸟重新引入野外奠定了基础)”可知，科学的人工繁育体系是朱鹭回归自然的关键。故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第三段“But now, they have come back from the edge of extinction. May 23 marked the 40th anniversary of the rediscovery of the crested ibis. Researchers said that the number has risen to more than 7,000 worldwide. There are 5,000 crested ibises in Shaanxi alone.(但现在，它们已经从灭绝的边缘回来了。5月23日是重新发现朱鹮40周年纪念日。研究人员表示，全球这一数字已上升至7000多只。仅陕西就有5000只朱鹮)”和第七段中“The government also restored more than 233 hectares (公顷) of natural wetlands, 100 hectares of winter paddy fields (稻田), more than 2,664 hectares of hills for afforestation (植树造林), dredged (疏浚) 30 km of channels and planted 30,000 trees.( 政府还恢复了233多公顷的天然湿地，100多公顷的冬季稻田，2664多公顷的丘陵造林，疏浚了30公里的渠道，种植了3万棵树。)”可知，文章主要介绍了朱鹮的回归，以及中国在这件事上的努力和所取得的成就。D选项“Comeback of crested ibises.( 朱鹮的回归)”符合文章标题，概括文章主要内容。故选D。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了年轻人与父母之间常常存在代沟和不适应的问题，他们觉得父母过时、严格甚至无法理解他们的选择，而父母也难以获得孩子们的信任，由此文章提出了相应的改善和解决建议。
【36题详解】
根据前文“It is natural that young people are often uncomfortable when they are with their parents. (很自然，年轻人和父母在一起时常常感到不舒服。)”可知，此处强调年轻人和父母在一起时常常感到不舒服，后文应该指出其中原因。G选项“They say that their parents don’t understand them.(他们说他们的父母不理解他们)”承接前文，指出年轻人和父母在一起时常常感到不舒服原因在于年轻人认为父母不理解他们，符合语境。故选G。
【37题详解】
根据后文“However, adults worry more easily and most of them plan things ahead.(然而，成年人更容易担心，大多数人会提前计划。)”可知，成年人与年轻人相反，更容易担心，提前计划；由此推知，设空处应该指出年轻人与成年人相反的情况。D选项“For example, young people like to act without much thinking.(例如，年轻人喜欢不加思考地行动)”与下文构成转折关系，指出年轻人喜欢不加思考的行动，符合语境。故选D。
【38题详解】
根据上文“They just feel cut off from the adults world, and have not yet been accepted into their world. (他们只是觉得与成年人的世界隔绝了，还没有被他们的世界所接受)”可知，年轻人觉得和成人之间有隔阂，同时又不被自己的世界接受；根据后文“By doing so, they will feel pleased or even proud even if their parents do not like their music, entertainment, clothes or their way of speech.(通过这样做，即使他们的父母不喜欢他们的音乐、娱乐、服装或说话方式，他们也会感到高兴甚至自豪。)”可知，此处年轻人们有着自己的音乐、娱乐、服装或说话方式即自己创造的新文化，这些新文化能够让年轻人们感到高兴和自豪；由此可知，与成人世界隔绝以及不被自己的世界接受，是年轻人创造属于自己文化的原因。E选项“That’s why young people want to make a new culture of their own.(这就是为什么年轻人想要创造自己的新文化。)”符合语境。故选E。
【39题详解】
根据前文“Sometimes young people are so proud of themselves that they do not want their parents to say yes to what they do.(有时，年轻人为自己感到骄傲，他们不想让父母同意他们所做的事情。)”可知，有时候年轻人不想让父母同意他们所做的事情，后文应该指出年轻人们想做什么事。B选项“All they want is to be left alone and do what they like.(他们只想一个人待着，做自己喜欢的事。)”承接前文，指出年轻人只想一个人待着，做自己喜欢的事，该选项符合语境。故选B。
【40题详解】
根据后文的“Parents should treat their children as independent individuals. And young people need to communicate with their parents from time to time to narrow the gap between them.(父母应该把孩子当作独立的个体来对待。年轻人需要不时地与父母沟通，以缩小他们之间的差距。)”可知，此处强调父母应该把孩子当做个体来对待，孩子应该时不时的和父母进行沟通缩小差距，即二者之间应该相互尊重。A选项“A good parent-child relationship is based on mutual(相互的)respect.(良好的亲子关系建立在相互尊重的基础上。)”概括本段内容，引起下文，强调父母和孩子之间应该互相尊重，符合语境。故选A。

67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A Friendship Coming Back
For my fourteenth birthday, my mom offered to take me and several friends to the city near our small town to visit a mall, eat pizza in the food court, and then catch a movie. Afterwards, we would all return to my house for a slumber party (睡衣晚会). It was just the kind of celebration a teenage girl longed for.
On the awaited day, all the friends I’d invited to join me on this birthday trip attended school—except Nora. When it was time to climb aboard the bus and ride together to my home, she still didn’t show up.
I felt confused. Then I felt mad. Why did she tell me she’d come to the party and then break her word without letting me know By the time we returned to my house, I decided to call Nora.
When she answered, I demanded to know why she had forgotten my birthday celebration. “It’s my birthday!” I complained. “You’re not coming to my party and you didn’t let me know. What kind of friend are you ”
Nora explained that she had to stay at home because she was sick.
“OK, so you’re sick.... but how was I supposed to know if you didn’t tell me ” I yelled.
The conversation only grew more heated from there. By the end of it, Nora could only sob (抽泣) sadly and then I slammed (摔) down the phone madly.
At school on Monday, I avoided seeing her. For the rest of the school year, we hardly spoke to each other. We started high school the following year. Our friendship has been relegated (降级) to the past. It happens sometimes, I figured, so I just shrugged it off (不在乎).
Years later, I discovered that Facebook had suggested Nora as a friend. We’d attended the same school, came from the same town, and had many friends in common; it made sense. It was at that moment that I began to reflect on that ugly phone conversation I’d made with Nora all those years before. I felt a deep regret for what I had done for the first time.
注意:
1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Gathering all my courage, I sent the friend request and she accepted in no time.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
But a few days later, she finally responded with a message.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
Gathering all my courage, I sent the friend request and she accepted in no time. I was so delighted that I immediately started composing an apology letter to her, telling her that I felt really regretful for what I had done and how selfish and self-centered I had been. I worked over the words, checking every phrases over and over again before I finally hit “Send”. I stared at the screen, waiting for her reply with my heart hammering wildly. But as minutes ticked away, there was still no response. I knew she wouldn’t forgive me. “I will lose the friend forever.” I sighed, burying my face in the hands.
Paragraph 2:
But a few days later, she finally responded with a message. It was a message of heartfelt acceptance and forgiveness, in which she expressed how she missed me these years and that she valued our friendship. She added she should have apologized to me for her absence from my birthday celebration. After reading the message, I couldn’t contain my tears, feeling a heavy load taken off my mind. My beloved friend came back. From then on, we kept each other updated on what was happening in our lives. I was glad I had reached out to fix the relationship and won back the precious friendship.

The history of life on earth has been a history of interaction between living things and their surroundings. To a large extent (程度), the physical form and the habits of the earth’s vegetation and its animal life have been shaped by the environment. Considering the whole span of earthly time, the opposite effect, in which life actually modifies its surroundings, has been relatively slight (轻微的). Only in the present century has one species—man got significant power to change the nature of his world.
During the past quarter century this power has not only become increasingly great but it has changed in character. The most alarming of all man’s assaults (侵犯) upon the environment is the contamination (污染) of air, earth, rivers, and sea with dangerous and even deadly materials. This pollution is for the most part irrecoverable. In this now universal contamination of the environment, chemicals are the wicked partners of radiation (辐射) in changing the very nature of the world, the very nature of its life.
It took hundreds of millions of years to produce the life that now lives on the earth. Given time not in years but in millennia (千年), life adjusted and a balance has been reached. But in the modern world there is no time.
I don’t mean that chemical insecticides (杀虫剂) must never be used. However, we have to admit that we have put poisonous and biologically harmful chemicals indiscriminately (恣意地) into the hands of persons largely or wholly ignorant of their possible harm. We have forced enormous numbers of people to contact these poisons, without their permission and often without their knowledge. We admit, furthermore, that we have allowed these chemicals to be used with little or no advance investigation of their effect on soil, water, wildlife, and man himself. Future generations are unlikely to forgive our lack of concern for the integrity (完好无损) of the natural world that supports all life.
24. What does the underlined word “modified” in the first paragraph mean
A. destroy B. change C. explore D. maintain
25. Which of the following does the least harm to the environment
A. chemicals B. radiation C. insecticides D. vegetation
26. According to the text, what can we learn about the environment
A. Chemicals must not be used for the sake of the environment.
B. The environment is greatly affected by vegetation and animals.
C. The future generations are likely to lack concern for the environment.
D. The pollution of the environment is largely due to irresponsible humans.
27. What will the following paragraph probably talk about
A. What humans should do with chemicals for future generations.
B. How the environment affects the living things on the earth.
C. What kind of chemicals are less harmful to the environment.
D. How we humans make the best of chemicals to save the earth.

It was rush hour in the morning. Heather Sant, 36, was driving her white 2012 Mazda on the road with her nine-year-old daughter and ten-year-old son in the back. Suddenly, a red pickup truck cut them off. Sant turned the wheel hard to the right, sending the Mazda slide off the road and down an embankment(路堤) that ended in a drop-off after about 50 feet. If the car didn’t stop, it would take off and dive into the road some 20 feet below. Then a bit of luck: as the car raced toward the edge, its undercarriage got stuck, stopping it suddenly.
The people inside, however, were far from safe. The car had come to rest on top of a retaining wall(护墙), balancing on the edge of disaster. One sudden move by anyone inside could throw the car off balance and send it over. Jacob Rodriguez watched everything in terror from the nearby truck company where he works. As an experienced sailor, just like every time he met shipwreck, he whispered a sailing saying “Ship, shipmates, self”, then immediately he and four other men ran to the car. They leaped onto the trunk(后备箱) to balance the weight as the terrified kids in the back seat watched.
Meanwhile, Julio and his nephew Marco, were driving to their jobs at nearby Premier Automotive. Julio jumped out of the car to help while Marco went to the shop, grabbed a strong rope, and returned to the car. He tied the Mazda to an F-350 truck that had been driven over by one of the other rescuers. With the car secured, the group carefully opened the back doors and helped the children out. But their departure shifted the cars weight, causing it to tip forward. The men, still on the trunk, begged Sant to jump into the back seat. She did and then inched out of the back door. Finally, the men carefully got off the trunk. Everyone was safe.
“Another foot,” Rodriguez told USA Today, “and this would be a different story. ”
28. What most probably caused the traffic accident
A. The Mazda was overloaded. B. Sant was really speeding.
C. The wheel failed to work. D. The pickup cut in abruptly.
29. Why did the men ask Sant to move to the back seat
A. To open the back door of the car. B. To fasten the rope to the truck.
C. To keep the balance of the car. D. To help the men get off the trunk.
30. What does Rodriguez want to stress in the last paragraph
A. The timely help offered by rescuers.
B. The excellent cooperation of all the people.
C. The dangerous position where the car stopped.
D. The serious danger the rescuers faced.
31. Which of the following statements is consistent with the theme of the passage
A. Persistence will pay off. B. One in trouble, all to help.
C. Many hands make light work. D. Doing is better than saying.
D
Believed to have existed for more than 60 million years, crested ibises (朱鹮) are one of the oldest species of bird on Earth. Due to pollution and other human activities, the birds began to disappear in the 1960s.
In 1981, seven crested ibises were found in Yangxian county in Hanzhong, Shaanxi province. They were believed to be the last remaining ones worldwide.
But now, they have come back from the edge of extinction. May 23 marked the 40th anniversary of the rediscovery of the crested ibis. Researchers said that the number has risen to more than 7,000 worldwide. There are 5,000 crested ibises in Shaanxi alone.
“The secret for the rare and inspirational case of successfully saving crested ibises from a small population is the country’s onsite protection approach adopted at the very beginning,” Zhang Yueming, an expert who works at the crested ibis nature reserve bureau (局) in Yangxian, told China Daily.
On the fourth day after the discovery of the seven crested ibises, the local government issued a series of emergency notices to protect crested ibises. For example, hunting, cutting down trees, setting off explosives in the mountains, or using fertilizers (肥料) in the birds’ foraging (觅食) areas were not allowed.
Later, it also established the Qinling No.1 protection station and sent four people to guard the seven birds. These guardians worked day and night. In the daytime, they observed and recorded the birds’ habits and characteristics; at night, the main job was to keep them safe.
The government also restored more than 233 hectares (公顷) of natural wetlands, 100 hectares of winter paddy fields (稻田), more than 2,664 hectares of hills for afforestation (植树造林), dredged (疏浚) 30 km of channels and planted 30,000 trees.
New methods were used to protect crested ibises, mainly including artificial breeding (人工饲养) and reintroduction. In 1990, the Shaanxi Crested Ibis Rescue and Breeding Center was established. At the center, crested ibises are artificially bred and can receive timely treatment when they are sick. Over the next 30 years, they also explored and created a complete system of artificial breeding techniques, laying a foundation for the birds’ later reintroduction into the wild.
“China’s protection of crested ibises is a paragon (典范) in the world’s history of preserving endangered wildlife,” Zhang told China Daily.
32. When did Yangxian local government start to protect crested ibises
A. In the 1960s. B. In 1981. C. In 1990. D. In 2020.
33. Which of the following is NOT what the government did
A. It turned natural wetlands into fields and forests.
B. It sent some people to keep an eye on the birds.
C. It forbade using fertilizers in the bird’s habitats.
D. It stopped locals cutting trees and hunting.
34. What plays a key role in crested ibises returning to the wild
A. The discovery of the seven birds.
B. The scientific artificial breeding system.
C. The timely treatment to the sick birds.
D. The notices from the local government.
35. What is the suitable title of the text
A. Promising future of crested ibises.
B. Rediscovery of endangered wildlife.
C. Conservation of rare birds.
D. Comeback of crested ibises.

A Friendship Coming Back
For my fourteenth birthday, my mom offered to take me and several friends to the city near our small town to visit a mall, eat pizza in the food court, and then catch a movie. Afterwards, we would all return to my house for a slumber party (睡衣晚会). It was just the kind of celebration a teenage girl longed for.
On the awaited day, all the friends I’d invited to join me on this birthday trip attended school—except Nora. When it was time to climb aboard the bus and ride together to my home, she still didn’t show up.
I felt confused. Then I felt mad. Why did she tell me she’d come to the party and then break her word without letting me know By the time we returned to my house, I decided to call Nora.
When she answered, I demanded to know why she had forgotten my birthday celebration. “It’s my birthday!” I complained. “You’re not coming to my party and you didn’t let me know. What kind of friend are you ”
Nora explained that she had to stay at home because she was sick.
“OK, so you’re sick.... but how was I supposed to know if you didn’t tell me ” I yelled.
The conversation only grew more heated from there. By the end of it, Nora could only sob (抽泣) sadly and then I slammed (摔) down the phone madly.
At school on Monday, I avoided seeing her. For the rest of the school year, we hardly spoke to each other. We started high school the following year. Our friendship has been relegated (降级) to the past. It happens sometimes, I figured, so I just shrugged it off (不在乎).
Years later, I discovered that Facebook had suggested Nora as a friend. We’d attended the same school, came from the same town, and had many friends in common; it made sense. It was at that moment that I began to reflect on that ugly phone conversation I’d made with Nora all those years before. I felt a deep regret for what I had done for the first time.
注意:
1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Gathering all my courage, I sent the friend request and she accepted in no time.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
But a few days later she finally responded with a message.
