A

Since the age of three, Chelsie Hill had dreamed of becoming a dancer. That ambition nearly ended one night in 2010. Hill, then a 17-year-old high school senior in California, was in a car accident that left her paralyzed (残疾的) from the waist down. For most people, that would have ruined any hope of a dancing career. For Hill, it was the beginning. Far from being an obstacle, her wheelchair encouraged her. "I wanted to prove to my community-and to myself-that I was still 'normal.'"

Normal for her meant dancing, so Hill did it in her wheelchair. "Half of my body was taken away from me, and I have to move it with my hands. It definitely took a lot of learning and patience." After graduation, Hill wanted to expand her dance network to include women like her. She met people online who had suffered various spinal cord (脊柱) injuries but shared her determination, and she invited them to dance with her. "It was such an amazing experience."

Hoping to reach more people in a larger city, Hill moved to Los Angeles in 2018 and formed a team of dancers with disabilities she calls the Rollettes. "I want to show that dance is dance, whether you’re walking or you’re rolling."

Dancing on wheels, the Rollettes discovered, can be just as fast-paced, graceful as dancing on foot. Edna Serrano says that being part of the Rollettes team has given her the courage. "I didn’t know I could do so many things that these girls have taught me," she says. "They’re my teachers. I have more confidence."

21. Which of the following words can best describe Hill?

A. confident and honest       B. determined and active

C. courageous and polite      D. learned and experienced

22. What can be inferred about the Rollettes?

A. It was founded in Hill’s hometown.           B. Every dance lover can join in it.

C. It helped many disabled people like Hill.       D. It has some dance teachers giving lessons.

23. What message is shown in the story?

A. Always prepare for a rainy day.             B. Misfortunes never come alone.

C. Health is not valued till sickness comes       D. Where there is a will, there is a way.

B

It happened on a rainy Saturday morning last month. My wife Catherine and I were driving along what some people called moose alley(麋鹿通道). It was so early that there were few cars on the road. Suddenly, something happened. A moose jumped out across our path. I had been driving for years and was good at driving. In order to avoid knocking into the moose, I made a quick turn to the other lane. If I had not done that, the moose might have been killed, and my wife and I might have got injured, too. A few seconds later, when stopped and looked back in my rear view mirror, the moose was getting up and then ran into the bush. Shaken but fine, we both looked at each other with a surprised expression.

From then on, I often thought about the relationship between humans and wildlife. We know that animal species(物种) have appeared and disappeared continually since life began on the Earth. It is quite natural. However, animal species have been decreasing at a much faster rate for about a century now because of human factors (因素) such as pollution.

Certain philosophers and scientists keep repeating that if we don't save animals, how we will be able to save ourselves. A better knowledge of animals gives us a better understanding of our own species. The will to protect animals and nature in general shows the value of a society. And all animals play roles in nature and have a right to survive. Therefore, I think we should try our best to save endangered animals, because humans cannot live on the Earth alone.

24. What happened on a rainy Saturday morning last month?

A. My wife and I were both injured in the accident.

B. My car knocked into a moose running across the path.

C. A moose was killed because of the knock on my car.

D. With my good driving skills, we successfully avoided hitting a moose.

25. According to the passage, which of the following is not the factor of animal decreasing?

A. pollution       B. overhunting       C. earthquake       D. habitat loss

26. What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. No animal, no human                 B. Focus on animal activities all the time

C. Human activities must be stopped       D. Animals are more important than humans

C

There are a lot of names for people who travel the world-backpackers, tourists, explorers, travelers. Labels(标签) are everywhere but seem especially popular among travelers trying to differentiate(区别) their style of travel. For many travelers, these labels make them feel better over another.

Andrew Zimmern from Bizarre Foods once said, "Please be a traveler, not a tourist. Try new things, meet new people, and look beyond what’s right in front of you. Those are the keys to understanding this amazing world we live in." The idea here is that travelers are better at exploring the world than tourists. They dig deep into the culture, drink it up, and get to know a place while a tourist takes pictures and declares to have "done Paris."

But that’s wrong. we are all tourists.

On the road, backpackers love to talk about how real their travels are and how unreal tourists are. "Look at those tourists over there," they say. They scoff at others who travel too quickly or to places that they think are not well worth visiting. Nevertheless, they do so while eating hamburgers and drinking beers with other travelers.

The only way to really get to know a place deeply is to live there. If you want to live like a local, find an apartment, get a job, go to work, and do the same things as you did back home.

We are all only passing through a culture, getting a small taste before moving on to the next place. Even if we stay weeks or months, we’re just getting in touch with the surface. As a matter of fact, we are all really just tourists, or explorers, or travelers. Call yourself whatever you want- it’s all the same as we’re all trying to do the same thing - see the world.

So don’t label anyone and don’t let anyone label you. We’re all tourists. We’re all travelers. What we are all doing is more important than what we call ourselves. Let’s just enjoy the fact that we are simply people on the road.

27. The purpose of Andrew Zimmern’s words in Paragraph 2 is to          .

A. present amazing experiences       B. tell travelers from tourists

C. get to know different people       D. give an example of misunderstanding

28. Which of the following can best replace the underlined phrase "scoff at" in Paragraph 4?

A. laugh at.       B. model after       C. take notice of.       D. agree with

29. What do tourists and travelers have in common?

A. They live like locals while traveling.       B. They have a brief experience of places.

C. They enjoy tasty food on the way.         D. They like calling themselves explorers.

30. What does the author imply in the passage?

A. Explore deep into cultures.          B. Make a detailed trip schedule.

C. Just enjoy the trip on the road.       D. Simply be more a traveller than a tourist
