My grandfather used to be the smartest person in the world. I am sure he was. There was nothing he could not explain or narrate to me. When 1 lost my sight being only six years old, he was the one who supported my connection with the whole world. He was doing it with his tales.

My grandfather was the one who did not allow me to give up. Grandfather supported my memory and boosted my imagination every day. He was narrating fairy stories about everything around us. He made me describe the things that I used to see previously in detail and then told something about them I could not believe.

I remember he gave me his knife. I was careful with it, as it was sharp - my grandfather carved figures and household items with it. I was holding it and trying to restore its look in my memory, and grandfather was telling a story of the knife. He told me that having this knife, he was never wounded in a battle, and he could carve any figure in detail with it. He promised that one day I would get it, and I would be able to carve anything. I touched the blade （刀刃）with my fingers, and I imagined how great 1 would be in carving. 1 wanted to make the magic creatures that were mentioned by my grandfather and present them to him.

He made me walk a lot, we were researching the hills and fields, and he taught me how to define the flowers and trees. Being blind, I could find any local plant by smelling and touching. Grandfather promised that one day we would hike together and find real highland edelweiss.

He died a month before I had my operation. When the bandage was taken off my eyes, I saw the faces of parents, sun, flowers and trees, and a knife left by my grandfather. Later, when my sight became stable and it became possible to read, my father gave me a book of tales written and illustrated by my grandfather. There were all the creatures he was talking about. He painted them for me, and I was spending the months looking at them and trying to recall their images in my own memory.

Humans evolved （进化）from apes. This is what we learned in biology class. But what came before apes? Chinese scientists have discovered fossils that could enrich the evolutionary story of how humans evolved from fish.

According to four articles published in the journal Nature in late September, Chinese researchers found fish fossils that provide the “missing link“ about the origin of the jaw （下颌），a key trait （特征）that 99.8 percent of vertebrate species （脊椎动物）have.

Zhu Min, a lead researcher of the studies from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, told China Daily that the findings drew a large amount of interest in the science world due to the importance of jaws in animal evolution. However, the rise of the jaw had been a mystery due to a lack of sufficient fossil evidence to support that jawed vertebrates lived 450 million years ago.

The latest findings made by Zhu's team presented a set of five surprisingly well-preserved fish fossils that included three whole-bodied fish, helping scientists paint a more accurate evolutionary picture of the origin of the jaw. The fish fossils were discovered at two sites in Chongqing and Guizhou, whose strata （地层）date back to the Silurian Period （志留纪）that began around 440 million years ago.

These fossils show that jawed fish were already thriving in the world's ancient oceans at that time. Later on, more diverse and larger jawed fish evolved and began to spread around the world, paving the way for some fish to eventually go on land and evolve into other animals - including humans.

“These fossils provide an opportunity to peek into the ‘dawn of fish' and help scientists track many human body structures back to these ancient fish, thus filling some key gaps in the evolutionary history of how fish evolved into humans/' Zhu said.

28.   Why does the author mention human evolution from apes in paragraph 1?

A. To make a prediction. B. To present a fact.

C. To clarify a concept. D. To introduce a topic.

29.   What is stressed in paragraph 4?

A. The number of fish fossils. B. The characteristics of fish fossils.

C. The significance of fish fossils. D. The research sites of fish fossils.

30.   The underlined word “thriving“ in paragraph 5 probably means.

A. growing well B. decreasing slowly

C. disappearing suddenly D. changing quickly

31.   How did Zhu think of the findings?

1. They helped fish conservation.
2. They led to research into the future of fish.
3. They made it clear when the Silurian Period began.
4. They provided more evidence for human evolution.

D

In many homes, dogs are beloved family pets. Dogs are now playing a role in educational environments, too. Since 2014, the New York City Department of Education has certified （认证） a Comfort Dog program. The program trains comfort dogs and their human handlers （训练师）for use in schools.

The Comfort Dog program began as a way to help students feel more involved in their classes and to reduce feelings of anxiety, fear, and isolation. At East Side Middle School （ESMS） in Manhattan, Bailey the comfort dog is now working with her human handler, Laurie Posner, the school psychologist.

“After a year and a half of virtual learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many kids have felt disconnected from their classmates. At ESMS, Bailey will be involved in social-emotional lessons throughout the school year. Also, Bailey is supposed to work on specific goals,“ Posner said. Students who have had difficulty going from a virtual learning model back to an in-person setting can also join a small group with Bailey. "In addition to helping small groups, Bailey will have an open-door policy - anyone on campus who is having a hard day will be welcome to come and see Bailey anytime. M Posner added. “You need somewhere to relax and just pet a dog, or talk to a dog. someone who is not going to judge you. That's what she is for.”

Bailey went through intensive （加强 的）training in order to become a comfort dog. Each dog must know basic instructions and pass a test conducted by human handlers to be suitable for a classroom setting. The dogs' interactions with children, how they walk in hallways, respond to the ringing of school bells, and take treats from working staff are all tested.

Researchers are finding that having comfort dogs in school leads to a more positive school climate.

So far, Bailey is a hit at ESMS.

32.    What can be inferred about Bailey?

A. She feels disconnected in groups. B. She provides full-time service.

C. She is good at judging students. D. She is involved in social media classes.

33.    The underlined word “they” in paragraph 4 refers to.

A. working staff B. human handlers C. children D. dogs

34.    What can we say about the Comfort Dog program?

A. It targets family dogs. B. It upsets dog owners.

C. It is helpful for school atmosphere. D. It trains dogs to be stronger.

35.    What can we expect of comfort dogs in the future?

1.    They may win popularity in schools.
2.    They will take the place of family dogs.
3.    They could raise concerns about keeping pets.
4.    They might have a negative effect on teaching.

We set out earlier in the morning. As soon as we got there, we divided into two groups. One group picked up all the rubbishes on the ground, such as waste paper, cigarette ends and plastic bags throwing everywhere. The others group removed all illegal advertisements from the poles and trees, which were a tough job.
