21、Your friends have one, maybe even two or three. 【1】 Does it seem that everyone has one but you? No, it is not the latest video game, but something much more fun---a family pet.
Dogs and hamsters(仓鼠) are both fun to hold and pet, but they relate to people in different ways. For example, dogs enjoy human contact. They love to play with their owners. They also like to show affection(喜爱) and love licking(舔) their owners’ faces. 【2】 They need fresh food and water every day, and they need exercise. They also need someone to take care of them when their owners go out of town.
【3】 Having contact with people is not important to them. They like to sleep when people want to play. Unlike dogs, hamsters do not like being petted. Many will hide when their owners want to pick them up. Hamsters are also very independent. 【4】 Hamsters may be low on affection, but they need less daily care than dogs do. An owner usually fills up the food and water dishes only once a week. Hamsters need exercise too, but they get their exercise by running on wheels in their “houses”. If their owners go out of town, hamsters can be left alone.
【5】 The choice is yours.
A．Dogs like to be petted.
B．Your neighbors have one.
C．Hamsters are very different from dogs.
D．They like to spend their time exploring.
E．They need food and water just as dogs do.
F．However, dogs need a lot of daily care, too.
G．Dogs and hamsters both make good family pets.
22、Location
St Helena is one of the remotest islands on Earth. The subtropical (亚热带的) British Overseas Territory sits in the middle of the South Atlantic Ocean, 1,200 miles from the west coast of Africa and 1,800 miles from the east coast of South America.
Size Population
St Helena is only 16 km long and 9 km wide and the population is 5,000. This is 1/3 the size of the Isle of Wight, and the same size as Disney World Orlando. This is also the same size as San Francisco―yet the island has just 0.5% of San Francisco’s population. With an extremely low-crime community, you can freely explore the island’s natural and built attractions in peace.
Climate
As a subtropical island, St Helena’s temperature is 15-28°C all year round. While the four seasons are not recognized on St Helena, the “cooler months” are generally June to September and the “hotter months” are December to March. St Helena is free from extreme weather events, with even thunderstorms only occurring perhaps once a decade.
Accessibility
Until 2017, St Helena did not have an airport and was only accessible by sea. Reaching the island meant a five-day ship voyage from Cape Town, South Africa. However, since October 2017, the island’s first and only airport has enabled passengers to reach the island in just a six-hour flight.
【1】In what aspect are St Helena and San Francisco alike?
A．Area.
B．Population.
C．Climate.
D．Crime rate.
【2】What can best describe the climate of St Helena?
A．Tropical.
B．Dry.

23、 The population of the United States grows larger every year. The state that has been growing the fastest is Nevada. The city that has been receiving the most new residents (居民) is Las Vegas, which lies in the desert in Southern Nevada.
Why are so many people moving to Las Vegas? First, it is easy to find a job. Tourism is the number one industry in Las Vegas, so there are many service jobs. Workers are building thousands of new homes, buildings, and schools. The children need teachers. People need to shop for food, clothing, and cars, so the stores are looking for clerks (职员). About one third of the new residents are from California, where it is more difficult to find a job. Second, Nevada has no income tax (所得税). Most states have an income tax of 2%, 4%, 5% or more. Third, many people like the weather. Even though it’s very hot in the summer, the other seasons are beautiful. There are over 250 days of sunshine each year. Finally, housing is still affordable, with the price of a new home at about $139,500. People moving from California find that this is reasonable in comparison to homes in their state.
Las Vegas is also the wedding capital of the United States. It is easier to get married in Las Vegas than in any other city in the United States. You don’t need a blood test. You don’t need to wait for a week for a marriage license. It’s possible to get married the same day you apply for (申请) a marriage license.
Las Vegas also has problems. Because it sits in the desert, there is not enough water. Even though water is expensive, residents have not been careful in conserving water. Next, Las Vegas has serious air pollution problems. Las Vegas is surrounded (环绕) by high mountains, some as high as10,000 feet. These mountains hold in the pollution from the cars. At times, there are warnings not to exercise outdoors. Finally, as the city becomes larger, people are traveling farther to work and the average commute (通勤) time has been interesting.
【1】Why does Las Vegas receive the most new residents?
A．It is easy to own a house there.
B．Its industry is highly developed.
C．It has low income tax.
D．Its summer is cool.

A．A blood test is necessary in the U.S. to get married.
B．It is easy to find someone you love in Las Vegas.
C．It is quick to get a marriage license in Las Vegas.
D．The wedding party usually lasts one week in the U.S.
【3】The underlined word “conserving” in the last paragraph can best be replaced by “________”.

C．wasting
D．discovering
【4】What is one of the problems facing Las Vegas?
A．Dirty air.
B．Poor education.
C．Being short of jobs.
D．Busy traffic.
24、Tips for Cycle Trips
Cycling has many advantages as a form of travel, as it is the fastest way to travel by human power, and slow enough to allow the type of local involvement that is impossible with powered travel. Cycle travel is a cheap form of transportation.
Distance
On level terrain（地形）, without a headwind, a cyclist of average fitness on a touring bike can comfortably cover 60-120km a day. Distances of up to 250km a day are possible, but anything much beyond 120km will require considerable physical tension and not allow many stops to enjoy the places you visit. For many, 80-100km a day will be the most suitable distance to aim for, as it will give a sense of achievement and also leave plenty of time for meals and activities.
Geography
The gradient（坡度）of the trip will reduce your range. A basic rule is that for every 100 metres of altitude you climb, you should add an extra 15 minutes to your journey time. In hilly or mountainous areas, the easiest routes for cycling are downstream along major rivers, as overall they will be downhill. A long, roundabout route along a river will usually be easier than a short, direct route over a hill or mountain pass. However, it is worth bearing in mind that the most scenic routes often come from hilly terrain.
Eat
Food choice depends largely on where you are, so see the respective sections for more information about foods. As you will be working hard, it’s important to get enough energy in your food. On long trips away from major towns, there may be little quality food available, so be prepared to live on candy bars, prepared meat products and the like if the need arises.
Sleep
While you can take a tent with you, many hotels and especially campsites can accommodate cyclists. However, there are also some hotels that may be less used to accommodating cyclists. If you are exploring an unfamiliar place, asking about the accommodation spares you the search for a new place to stay after a long exhausting day of travel.
【1】Which of the following distance does the author suggest to ordinary cyclists a day?
A.90km. B.50km.
C.130km. D.250km.
【2】What can we learn from the passage?
A.Cycling over a mountain is challenging but worthy.
B.Hotels seldom provide accommodation for cyclists.
C.High quality food is easy to get on long trips.
D.It takes cyclists 15 minutes to climb 10m of altitude.
【3】Where can we probably read this passage?
A.In a geography book. B.In a research report.
C.In a travel magazine. D.In a science fiction.

26、I was about 13. My father frequently took me on short outings on Saturdays. Sometimes we went to a park, or to a marina (码头) to look at boats. My favorites were trips to junk stores，where we could admire old electronic stuff. Once in a while we would buy something for 50 cents just to take it apart.
On the way home from these trips, Dad frequently stopped at the Dairy Queen for l0cent ice cream cones. Not every single time: just often enough. I couldn't expect it, but I could hope and pray from the time we started heading home to that critical corner where we would either go straight for the ice cream or turn and go home empty handed. That corner meant either mouthwatering excitement or disappointment.
A few times my father teased me by going home the long way. “I'm just going this wry for variety.” he would say, as we drove by the Dairy Queen without stopping. It was a game, and I was well fed, so we’re not talking torture (折磨) here.
On the best days he would ask, in a tone that made it sound novel and spontaneous, “Would you like an ice cream cone?” and I would say, “That sounds great, Dad!” I’d always have chocolate and he’d have vanilla. He would hand me 20 cents and I would run in to buy the usual. We'd eat them in the car. I loved my dad and I loved ice cream — so that was heaven.
On one fateful day, we were heading home, and I was hoping and praying for the beautiful sound of his offer. It came. “Would you like an ice cream cone today?” “That sounds great, Dad!”
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右：
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
But then he said, “It sounds good to me too, Son. How would you like to treat today?”
————————————————————————————————————
My father just said, “Okay, Son.”
