河北省部分名校2021-2022学年高三3月份联考英语试题
In the depths of space orbits is an intergalactic space station. Living here are some of the smartest scientists and their families. After traveling billions of miles, two scientists, Clyde and Klara Klosno, and their kids Kelvin and Bula, are the newest members of the space station. This is a story told in the new book, ScrFi Junior High, written by Scott Seegert and illustrated by John Martin.
Seegert, a former engineer, was inspired to give writing a try at age 45 after rending a book written by a famous writer. After working on that book for three years, Seegert's hard work paid off when it was published in 2007. After that success, he decided to focus on writing books for kids.
Martin always loved to write and draw. As a kid, he spent evenings and weekends watching cartoons and drawing superheroes, Martin says he was “avoiding homework”, without realizing that he was really working towards his future career. Martin went on to study art at a college and became a successful illustrator.
Seegert and Martin grew up during the same time and had similar interests. As kids, both read comic books, watched superhero shows and enjoyed alien movies.
Their first cooperative work was the book Vordak the Incomprehensible. The two went on to write more books together and have received many awards for their work. For Sci-Fi Junior High, they started with a very general idea, and then focused on the characters to tell the story.
Seegert and Martin work really well together. They even work in the same art studio in Farmington, Michigan. They work in separate rooms but have an in-between door so they can consult each other in person. “Many times nowadays, you might see an author and . illustrator working together, but they have never even met,” Seegert said. “We work diffeently from most children's book authors and illustrators.”
24. Why does the author mention Sci-Fi Junior High in paragraph 1?
A. To attract readers to read the book. B. To honor Clyde and Klara Klosmo.
C. To lead in the major characters of the text. D. To show the achievement of researching space.
25. How did Martin make use of his spare time as a kid?
A. He developed his interest. B. He planned for his future work.
C. He wrote books and drew pictures. D. He studied art to be an outstanding illustrator.
26. What can we know about Seegert and Martin?
A. They had some similarities. B. They grew up in the same arca.
C. They were honored for the space station. D. They have worked together for 30 years.
27. What may be the best title for the text?
A. Two Writers Working Differently B. Two Partners Marching Together
C. John Martin,a Famous illustrato D. Sci-Fi Junior High,a Wonderful Book
【答案】24. C 25. A 26. A 27. B
【导语】本文是记叙文，讲述了作家Seegert和插图画家Martin一起奋斗的故事。
24.推理判断题。根据第一段“In the depths of space orbits is an intergalactic space station. Living here are some of the smartest scientists and their families. After traveling billions of miles, two scientists, Clyde and Klara Klosno, and their kids Kelvin and Bula, are the newest members of the space station. This is a story told in the new book, ScrFi Junior High, written by Scott Seegert and illustrated by John Martin.(在太空轨道的深处有一个星系间的空间站。住在这里的是一些最聪明的科学家和他们的家人。经过数十亿英里的旅行，两位科学家Clyde和Klara Klosno，以及他们的孩子Kelvin和Bula，成为了空间站的最新成员。这是一本新书《科幻初中》中讲述的故事，该书由Scott Seegert撰写，John Martin配图)”可推知，作者在第一段提到了《科幻初中》是为了引出文中的主要人物。故选C。

四川省成都市蓉城名校联盟2021-2022学年高三第二次联考英语试题
Mike Mushaw joined the national bone marrow registry (骨髓登记) three years ago by chance. Six months later, he got a call. The 21-year-old football player's bone marrow matched a patient in Virginia. Mushaw gave a second thought to the donation, because apart from some risks, he never knew whether his donation worked.
“Finally I said yes,” Mushaw told the journalist. “Once they took my blood, I thought, ‘All right, this is real. This is going to happen.’”
Mushaw didn't know it at the time, but his donation would go to a five-month-old girl named Eleanor who was sick with a rare disease diagnosed when she was only three months old. Days and weeks passing, her condition had become more dire.
“Eleanor was going to die without a bone marrow transplant,” her mother, Jessica, said. “The choices were to either get a transplant or die early. Luckily, Mushaw’s bone cured her.”
Mushaw didn't know any of this until months after his donation. About six months after the procedure, Eleanor's parents sent him an e-mail to thank him for his selfless love.
Their surprising connection was beginning. Mushaw kept checking on her progress. Eleanor focused her attention on him, too, by watching his football games on TV. In August, Mushaw invited her family to drive from Virginia to Connecticut to meet at one of his games. They had a good time together.
In January, Mushaw reunited with Eleanor, this time in Virginia, to celebrate her birthday. It will likely be first of many celebrations together. “As a parent, it feels really great to watch someone love your kid as much as you do,” Jessica says. “We were two complete strangers, and now we've become such a big part of each other's lives.”
24. Why did Mushaw hesitate at first?
A. He was a football player. B. He would face some danger.
C. He knew it wouldn't work at all. D. He didn't know whether his risks were worthy.
25. What does the underlined word “dire” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Serious. B. Complicated. C. Relieved. D. Hopeful.
26. Which of the following best describes Mushaw?
A. Kind but hesitant. B. Active and confident.
C. Worried but energetic. D. Selfless and considerate.
27. What can we learn through Mushaw's story?
A. Why health matters. B. Never make excuses.
C. How to be a good person. D. Love brings people together.
【答案】24. D 25. A 26. D 27. D
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Mike Mushaw的骨髓与一位患有一种罕见免疫缺陷疾病且只有五个月大的小女孩配对成功。他不仅救了这个小女孩，并与小女孩的一家建立了深厚的友谊。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Mushaw gave a second thought to the donation, because apart from some risks, he never knew whether his donation worked.（Mushaw重新考虑了捐赠，因为除了一些风险，他从不知道他的捐赠是否有效。）”可知，起初Mushaw怀疑他的捐赠是否有效。故选D项。
【25题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段第一句“Mushaw didn't know it at the time, but his donation would go to a five-month-old girl named Eleanor who was sick with a rare disease diagnosed when she was only three months old. （Mushaw当时并不知道，他的捐款将捐给一个名Eleanor的5个月大的女孩。埃莉诺在3个月大时就被诊断出患有一种罕见的疾病。）”以及第四段第一句““Eleanor was going to die without a bone marrow transplant,” her mother, Jessica, said.（如果不进行骨髓移植，Eleanor就会死去，”她的母亲Jessica说。）”可知，三个月大的Eleanor病情日益加重，得不到救治就会死去，因此可以推断出dire与A项的serious意思相同，意为“严重的”。故选A项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段内容“Mushaw didn't know any of this until months after his donation. About six months after the procedure, Eleanor's parents sent him an e-mail to thank him for his selfless love.（Mushaw捐款几个月后才知道这些。手术后大约六个月，Eleanor的父母给他发了一封电子邮件，感谢他无私的爱。）”以及最后一段第一句内容“In January, Mushaw reunited with Eleanor, this time in Virginia, to celebrate her birthday. （1月，Mushaw和Eleanor团聚，这次是在弗吉尼亚，庆祝她的生日。）”可知，Mushaw的捐赠以及为被捐助者庆祝生日，都可以体现出Mushaw的无私和体贴。故选D项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句““As a parent, it feels really great to watch someone love your kid as much as you do,” Jessica says. “We were two complete strangers, and now we've become such a big part of each other's lives.”（Jessica说：“作为一名家长，看到有人像自己一样爱自己的孩子，感觉真的很棒。”“我们曾经是完全陌生的两个人，现在我们已经成为彼此生活中如此重要的一部分。”）”以及结合全文内容可推知，我们能从Mushaw的故事中学到爱可以使人们紧紧地团结在一起。故选D项。

重庆市南开中学2021-2022学年高三第六次英语质量检测试题
Roald Dahl was a spy, an ace fighter pilot, a chocolate historian and a medical inventor. He was also the author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Matilda, The BFG, and a treasury of original, evergreen, and beloved children's books. He remains for many the world's No. 1 storyteller.
Born in Llandaff, Wales, on 13th September 1916 to Norwegian parents, Harald Dahl and Sofie Magdalene Hesselberg, Dahl was named after Roald Amundsen, the Norwegian who had been the first man to reach the South Pole just four years earlier. A heroic start in life.
Wanting the best for her only son, his mother sent him to a boarding school—Repton, a renowned British public school. With schooldays happily behind him, Dahl's lust for travel took him first to Canada, then to East Africa, where he worked for an oil company until the outbreak of World War II. He enlisted in the Royal Air Force at 23 years old. In 1953 Roald Dahl married the American actress, Patricia Neal, with whom he had five children.
There followed a burst of literary energy as his endless creativity led to one wonder after another：in 1961 James and the Giant Peach was published in the US, followed by Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Fantastic Mr. Fox was published in 1970, the year before the film Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory was released. The rest of the decade saw the publication of many other classics, including Danny the Champion of the World, The Enormous Crocodile, and My Uncle Oswald.
Roald Dahl died on 23 November 1990, aged 74. He was buried in the parish church of St. Peter and St. Paul in Great Missende — the Buckinghamshire village where today The Roald Dahl Museum and Story Centre continues his extraordinary mission to amaze, thrill and inspire generations of children and their parents.

辽宁省铁岭市六校2021-2022学年高三3月联考英语试题
When American Matt Stopera’s iPhone went missing, he thought, “Well, bad luck. These things happen.” One year later, Matt’s misfortune has turned to good fortune as he found a new friend and became an Internet celebrity in China.
You may already be familiar with this story since it spread on Weibo for weeks during the Spring Festival, but it started when Matt began seeing photos of a Chinese man in front of an orange tree on his photo stream (照片流). He wrote about it and some Chinese readers decided to see if they could find the mysterious man. They did. It turns out that “Brother Orange,” as he became known, owned a restaurant in Guangdong and the iPhone he was using, a gift from a nephew, was Matt’s old phone.
Matt and Brother Orange began messaging each other and a friendship blossomed with Matt invited to China to feast at Brother Orange’s restaurant on his delicious Hakkacuisine (客家菜). Matt was also overwhelmed by the warmth of the millions of Chinese who were following the story. When he opened a Weibo account he had 22 million followers almost overnight, many of them inviting him to their hometowns and offering to be his tour guide.
Matt’s story is another example of how powerful the Internet and social networking has become in bringing people together. But there is a darker side to this story and that involves how Matt’s missing iPhone turned up in China. Over three million smart-phones were stolen in America last year. Because of identification numbers, these phones can’t be used in America, so they are sent to other countries and many of them end up in China, where they can be re-activated. This is why Matt and Brother Orange could share the same iCloud account.
You should keep this in mind when buying a second-hand phone and check the serial number to see that it has not been stolen. Finding a friend through social networking is wonderful, but using a stolen phone isn’t really the best way to make the connection.
4. What happened to Matt one year after he lost his phone?
A. He was fortunate enough to get his phone back. B. He became a famous figure on American website.
C. He gained friendship and became popular in China. D. He lost another phone because of his iCloud account.
5. How did Matt and Brother Orange establish their friendship?

B. Chinese readers tried their best to find Brother Orange.
C. Brother Orange received an iPhone from his nephew.
D. Brother Orange contacted Matt and invited him to China.
6. How did Matt’s followers react to his Weibo?
A. cautiously B. enthusiastically C. anxiously D. humorously
7. What does the story indicate?
A. It’s wonderful to find a friend through social net-working.
B. A stolen phone is the best way to make connections.
C. People should be careful when buying a second-hand phone.
D. Matt and Brother Orange set a good example to us.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. B 7. C

昆明第一中学西山学校2021-2022学年高三下期第四次月考英语试题
Japanese artist Ei Wada discovered that old television sets made great percussion instruments(打击乐器) by mistake, but he managed to turn this inadvertent discovery into an art. Today, his unique Braun Tube Jazz Band is famous all over the world.
Wada first became interested in percussion music at the age of four, after attending a Gamelan music performance in Indonesia. He was impressed by the sound of the percussion instruments, recalling that he felt “taken to another world”. This memory stuck with him, and a few years later, while playing some old cassette tapes, he realized that the sounds they produced were very similar to the Gamelan music that had made such a big impression on him. Since then, he has been focusing on producing sounds with old devices that people usually throw away.
While attending university, Wada met three other boys who shared their love for unconventional musical instruments, and together they founded Open Reel Ensemble—a band that specializes in making music with other old tech. And that’s how the Japanese musician discovered his most successful instrument—the old TV sets.
Wada said it happened completely by mistake. After plugging a sound cable into a composite(复合的) video connector port and seeing the sound on the screen as an image, he started pairing many TVs with PC-controlled video decks at different pitches(音高), thus turning them into percussion instruments. Then, he connected the guitar to his feet and started touching the TV screens to produce buzzing noise. Today, he can make the old television sets sound like electric drums.
The Japanese artist uses old TVs to transform light into sound. It sounds strange, but just take a look at the video of Wada performing and you'll see it's actually pretty cool.
4. What does the underlined word “inadvertent” in paragraph l mean?
A. Wonderful. B. Mysterious. C. Accidental. D. Creative.
5. What happened to Ei Wada after attending a Gamelan music performance in Indonesia?
A. He began doing scientific experiments.
B. He became interested in percussion music.
C. He began making percussion instruments himself.
D. He formed his own band—Braun Tube Jazz Band.
6. When did Ei Wada found Open Reel Ensemble?
A. After he graduated from college.
B. Before he attended a Gamelan music performance.
C When he played some old cassette tapes.

A. Ei Wada’s passion for music.
B. The influence of Braun Tube Jazz Band.
C. Ei Wada’s impression on the Gamelan music.
D. How Ei Wada turned old TVs into percussion instruments.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. D
【解析】

【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Wada first became interested in percussion music at the age of four, after attending a Gamelan music performance in Indonesia. (Wada第一次对打击乐产生兴趣是在四岁的时候，当时他在印度尼西亚参加了一场Gamelan音乐表演。)”可知，在印度尼西亚参加了一场Gamelan音乐表演后，Wada对变得打击乐感兴趣。故选B项。

河北省邯郸市十校2021-2022学年高三上学期期末联考英语试卷
The life of a premature(早产的)baby born during the winter storm in Texas was saved thanks to a team of medical professionals, including a doctor and two nurses who traveled from east Austin to Marble Falls in an effort to save a newborn baby's life.
When Arias began experiencing pains, she and her parents headed to the closest hospital, Baylor Scott & White. Arias gave birth to her daughter, Zaylynn, who weighed just over one pound and was in need of advanced special care. However, the hospital does not offer the specialized care premature babies require.
"We had five or six people out at the nurses' station calling hospital networks all over the state of Texas," said Meredith Schubert, the labor and delivery nurse on duty when Arias arrived. "Nobody could answer our cry for help."
They finally reached Dr. John Loyd through a patient, division neonatologist chief at Dell Children's Medical Center in Austin, Texas. Around 5 p.m., after already having worked a full shift, Loyd packed his SUV with equipment and he and two NICU nurses set out for Marble Falls, about 55 miles away. The drive took Loyd and the nurses about two hours as they drove in the night through ice and snow.
After safely arriving at the Marble Falls medical center around 8 p.m., the Dell Children's crew set up a temporary newborn ICU. Together, the Dell Children's and Baylor Scott & White teams worked around the clock to care for the mother and daughter.
Once the weather cleared enough to allow for a helicopter to safely land, Zaylynn was transferred to Dell Children's, where there is a Level IV newborn intensive care unit.
"It was incredible when the helicopter lifted off. There were tears from all of us," said Schubert. "It was a huge relief and sense of accomplishment and joy that Zaylynn was doing so well and getting to the place that she needed to be."
Arias told KVUE that she was grateful to the doctors and nurses who worked together to save her daughter.
4. What did the newborn baby need badly?
A. Professional surgery. B. Special intensive nursing.
C. Immediate transfer. D. Experienced doctors.
5. Which word best describes Schubert's cry for help before reaching Loyd?
A. Timely. B. Hopeful. C. Desperate. D. Encouraging.
6. What was the most touching part about Loyd?
A. He came with all the necessary equipment. B. He tried his best to maintain his honor.
C. He had enough bravery to drive at night. D. He drove to rescue at night in severe weather.
7. What made the doctors and nurses feel a sense of relief?
A. The fine weather. B. The baby's improvement.
C. The takeoff of the helicopter. D. The baby's arrival at its destination.

重庆市西南大学附属中学校2021-2022学年高三下期第六次月考试题
One night Buck woke up and heard the call again, a long howl. He ran into the forest. And there, his nose pointing to the sky, sat a wolf. The wolf started to run, and Buck followed him. They ran for hours through the forest, and then suddenly Buck remembered John Thornton. He turned and started to run back.
Thornton was eating dinner when Buck returned. Buck jumped all over him, and for two days never left his side. But after two days the call of the wild came again, and he remembered the forest and the wolf that had run with him.
He started to sleep out in the forest at night, sometimes staying out for three or four days. He ate well, and he grew stronger and quicker and more alive. His golden brown coat shone with health as he ran through the forest, learning its every secret, every smell, and every sound.
Nobody saw the change that happened when Buck was inside the forest. At once he became a thing of the wild, stepping softly and silently, a passing shadow among the trees.
In the autumn, Buck started to see moose (驼鹿) in the forest. One day he met a group of about twenty. The largest was two meters tall, and his antlers were more than two meters across. When he saw Buck, he got very angry. For hours Buck followed the moose; he wanted the big one, but he wanted him alone. By the evening Buck had driven the big old moose away from the others, and then he began his attack.
The animal weighed six hundred and fifty kilos—he was big enough and strong enough to kill Buck at once. Patiently, Buck followed him for four days, attacking and then jumping away. He gave him no peace, no time to eat or drink or rest, and slowly the moose became weaker. At the end of the fourth day Buck pulled the moose down and killed him. He stayed by the dead animal for a day and a half, eating, and then turned towards camp and John Thornton.
4. Why did Buck run into the forest according to Paragraph 1?
A. He was curious about the call.
B. He wanted to find something to eat.
C. Thornton was there studying the sky.
D. He wanted to do some morning exercise.
5. What can we learn about Buck from Paragraph 3?
A. He enjoyed staying out in the forest.
B. He made friends with wild animals.
C. His fur changed from brown to golden.
D. He ate a lot and put on too much weight.
6. Why was the moose finally killed?
A. He insisted on fighting Buck alone.
B. Buck got timely help from his friends.
C. He was too old and weak to fight Buck.
D. Buck had employed effective strategies.
7. Which words can best describe Buck?
A. Gentle and cautious. B. Patient and smart.
C. Realistic and motivated. D. Energetic and caring.
【答案】4. A5. A6. D7. B
【解析】

Mother's Day is traditionally a day for flowers, chocolates and big hugs, when children will have a chance to let their mother feel their love, but Willow Smith did something different for her mom Jada Pinkett Smith.

My mother was a superwoman. She was a rock star; she was a fighter all in one. So I was my mom's biggest fan," said Willow.
To show her respect for the woman, the 20-year-old star followed in her mother's legendary footsteps and performed one of her favorite Wicked Wisdom songs, Bleed All Over Me, with Jada's band members, including guitarist Pocket Honore and keyboardist Taylor Graves.
Willow brought Jada out from the living room, and then Jada was sent to the driveway safely where the performance was held. The great mother who could always face anything calmly could no longer control her tears when she saw that her own song was being sung by her daughter. Willow and Jada shared a tearful hug for the touching closer.

2022届江苏省南京市、盐城市高三第二次模拟考试英语适应卷
When my dad was first diagnosed with cancer and had radiation, I pushed my folks to start eating more fresh produce and preferably organics. My mom really improved her cooking from the roasted slice of pork and frozen-veggies dinners that I had fallen in love with. Dad said he had never eaten so well.
My dad had been an IBM guy, who often said, “People never change,” but he became skilled in overall treatments and began to take well-informed control of his own course of action. I wasn't thinking too much of his changes, but he had survived cancer for over 10 years, constantly learning, running his charity golf events, doing a bit of travel, and always looking pleasant and smiling.
My dad and I decorated a farmhouse in 2012, and I started taking care of the orchard, shaping rows for crops and a herb garden, and learning to care for four red hens. Bringing farm-fresh food to my folks was a way I could contribute to dad's health as well as his enjoyment of life, take a little work off my mom's hands, and sit and chat about something other than cancer.
The idea for this business came from what we learned about the role of food in health. My dad’s doctor told him that eating fresh produce could help resist cancer. Dad helped me set up the farm and worked till just a few days before he passed. But all of what I do here is based on experience, research, and strong values.
We learned more than I ever wanted to know. But the goals of this farm developed as we learned, and here we have it: Produce with a purpose—fresh produce, grown for disease-fighting and preventive health value, delivered with easy but crazy—delicious recipes as well as support, encouragement, overall thinking and even a bit of humor.
24. What was the author's favorite food in the past?
A. Organic food. B. Fresh vegetables.
C. Barbecued meat. D. Fast-food meal.
25. What did the author think of his dad?
A. He was a stubborn senior. B. He was crazy about adventures.
C. He was indifferent to his disease. D. He was positive about challenges.
26. What inspired the author and his dad to start the farm?
A. The pressure of his mother. B. The suggestions of a doctor.
C. The deadly cancer of his dad. D. The great harvest on the farm.
27. What is the text mainly about?
A. A farm with a purpose. B. A dream of my family.
C. The cancer of my father. D. The value of fresh produce.
【24~27题答案】
【答案】24. C25. D26. B27. A

湖南省长沙市长郡中学2021-2022学年高三下期月考英语试题（六）
After college I wanted to make a difference in the world，so I joined the Peace Corps and became a volunteer teacher in Namibia，my country of assignment(任务).Honestly,my first choice wasn't Africa，but I am extremely grateful that I was sent there.
Various tribes and racial groups live in Namibia and a number of languages are spoken.When Namibia gained independence in 1990,English became the official language.Teachers were supposed to teach in English,but many lacked the language skills to do so.My job was to train the teachers.
Schools were quite bare．Some classrooms consisted merely of sticks stuck in the sand and a metal roof.Each student had only one threadbare uniform.The students had exhausting days.They walked miles to get to school,often barefoot.They also did many daily chores.Even with their mountains of work，few possessions and little opportunity,these children were joyful.I admired that.
This was my first time living abroad in a different culture.Simply adapting to the living conditions was a big adjustment.I had no electricity，running water,phone or Internet.Imagine no air conditioning where the temperature was often above 38 degrees Celsius! However,I could end each day with a splendid African sunset.And at night,I could have an incredible pollution-free view of the entire Milky Way(银河).
Before Namibia，I never thought a girl like me would adapt to such an environment.My experience awakened me to not only the limitations we place on ourselves，but also our amazing ability to adapt.
Step outside of your comfort zone and throw yourself in another culture.You won't regret it.
4. What do we know about Namibia before 1990?
A. Everyone could speak many languages.
B. Teachers taught English as an official language.
C. It was ruled by other countries.
D. Teachers had a good command of English.
5. What does the underlined word “threadbare” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Ancient. B. Uncomfortable. C. Ugly. D. Shabby.
6. Which of the following best describes the author according to Paragraph 4?
A. Honest and fearless. B. Brave and clever.
C. Adaptable and optimistic. D. Generous and kind.
7. Why did the author feel grateful to volunteer in Namibia?
A. She gained pure friendship from African children.
B. The beautiful scenery in Africa impressed her a lot.
C. She succeeded in challenging her limits.
D. Africans' hard life touched her deeply.
【答案】4. C5. D6. C7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者到非洲做志愿者的工作经历以及感悟。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第二句中的“Namibia gained independence in 1990”可知，纳米比亚在1990年获得独立，所以在1990年以前纳米比亚是被其他国家统治的，故选C。
【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“often barefoot”以及“few possessions”可知，孩子们的生活非常艰苦，而且由画线词前面的“only one”可知，他们每人仅有一件校服，所以“threadbare”应表示“破旧的”，故只有D项“shabby”符合语境，故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Simply adapting to the living conditions was a big adjustment．”(仅仅是适应生活条件就需要很大的调整)可知作者适应了当地的生活环境，体现出其适应能力很强。根据“I had no electricity，running water，phone or Internet．Imagine no air conditioning where the temperature was often above 38 degrees Celsius! ”(没有电，没有自来水，没有电话，也没有互联网。想象一下，没有空调，那里的温度往往高于38摄氏度)可知纳米比亚的生活条件很艰苦，可是作者却能“end each day with a splendid African sunset”(在灿烂的非洲日落中结束每一天)以及“have an incredible pollution-free view of the entire Milky Way”(欣赏瑰丽的银河系)，由此可知，作者是一个非常乐观的人，故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“I am extremely grateful that I was sent there”(我很感激被派到那里)以及倒数第二段中的“My experience awakened me to not only the limitations we place on ourselves，but also our amazing ability to adapt.”（我的经历不仅让我意识到我们给自己设置的限制，也让我意识到我们惊人的适应能力）和最后一段内容可知，这段经历让作者意识到走出自己的舒适区并且在另一个环境中挑战自己的极限的重要意义，所以关于这段经历她心存感激。C项中的“challenging her limits”照应了文中的“awakened me to not only the limitations”，故选C。

It’s common for car owners to have a hard time emotionally letting go of their vehicles. But a St. Louis Missouri man's self-driving car has flipped the script.
Ed Selznick owned his Tezlo Reliance for almost three years before selling it to Tom Johnson, who lived 40 miles away. So Selznick was completely shocked when he walked out of his house a week later. He found the Reliance sitting in front of his house.
“I thought Johnson had returned it, and canceled the payment,” Selznick said. “So I called him.”
Johnson took a taxi to Selznick’s house to retrieve his car. But when he tried to start it, the vehicle wouldn't move.
Johnson paid to have the self-driving vehicle towed back to his house, but told Selznick he was billing him for it.
Two nights later, Selznick was awakened in the middle of the night by a familiar “honking” sound beeping to the tune of “Take Me Home, Country Road”, as if crying.
Tom Johnson called the police to arrest Selznick for repeatedly stealing his car. But the police said the couldn't do anything unless they actually caught him in the act.
So after towing the vehicle back to his house a second time, Johnson installed a camera outside his home.
The next time the car disappeared Johnson checked the video and was astonished to find that the car has tarted by itself and driven off on its own.
This time at Selznick’s house the Tezlo's horn honked to the tune of The Beatles’ “Baby You Can Drive My Car!”
When Selznick and Johnson finally wrapped their heads around what was happening, they agreed to void their contract and return the car to Selznick.
As for “Tezzy,” when it realized Selznick owned it again, it flashed its headlights on and off continuously, began honking to the tune of James Brown’s “I’m Back!”

Port Lympne Reserve, which runs a breeding (繁育) programme, has welcomed the arrival of a rare black rhino calf (犀牛幼崽). When the tiny creature arrived on January 31, she became the 40th black rhino to be born at the reserve. And officials at Port Lympne were delighted with the new arrival, especially as black rhinos are known for being difficult to breed in captivity (圈养).
Paul Beer, head of rhino section at Port Lympne, said: “Obviously we're all absolutely delighted to welcome another calf to our black rhino family. She's healthy, strong and already eager to play and explore. Her mother, Solio, is a first-time mum and she is doing a fantastic job. It's still a little too cold for them to go out into the open, but as soon as the weather warms up, I have no doubt that the little one will be out and about exploring and playing every day.”
The adorable female calf is the second black rhino born this year at the reserve, but it is too early to tell if the calves will make good candidates to be returned to protected areas of the wild. The first rhino to be born at Port Lympne arrived on January 5 to first-time mother Kisima and weighed about 32kg. His mother, grandmother and great grandmother were all born at the reserve and still live there.
According to the World Wildlife Fund, the global black rhino population has dropped as low as 5500, giving the rhinos a “critically endangered” status.

6. What similar experience do Solio and Kisima have?
A. They had their first born in January. B. They enjoyed exploring new places
