2. At present, I was diagnsed（诊断）with a kind f attentin disrder. It made schl difficult fr me. When everyne else in the class was fcusing n tasks, I culd nt.
In my first literature class, Mrs. Smith asked us t read a stry and then write n it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, "Mrs. Smith, yu see, the dctr said I have attentin prblems. I might nt be able t d it."
She glanced dwn at me thrugh her glasses, "Yu are nt different frm yur classmates, yung man."
I tried, but I didn't finish the reading when the bell rang. I had t take it hme.
In the quietness f my bedrm, the stry suddenly all became clear t me. It was abut a blind persn, Luis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind culdn't get much educatin. But Luis didn't give up. Instead, he invented a reading system f raised dts（点）, which pened up a whle new wrld f knwledge t the blind.
Wasn't I the "blind" in my class, being made t learn like the "sighted" students? My thughts spilled ut and my pen started t dance. I cmpleted the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was nt different frm thers; I just needed a quieter place. If Luis culd find his way ut f his prblems, why shuld I ever give up?
I didn't expect anything when I handed in my paper t Mrs. Smith, s it was quite a surprise when it came back t me the next day﹣with an "A" n it. At the bttm f the paper were these wrds: "See what yu can d when yu keep trying? "
Inspired and tuched, I began t keep trying hard in my study and struggled against attentin disrder. I believe ne can find his way ut f ________ with determinatin and effrts.
（1）The authr didn't finish the reading in class because________.
A. he was new t the class

C. He gave up reading.D. He learned a lt frm schl.．
（3）What was Mrs. Smith's attitude t the authr at the end f the stry？________
A. Angry.B. Impatient.
C. Sympathetic.D. Encuraging.．
（4）The underlined wrd "predicament" in the last paragraph prbably means________.
A. srrwB. destinatinC. difficultyD. frtune．
3. A rainfrest is an area cvered by tall trees with the ttal high rainfall spreading quite equally thrugh the year and the temperature rarely dipping belw 16℃. Rainfrests have a great effect n the wrld envirnment because they can take in heat frm the sun and adjust the climate. Withut the frest cver, these areas wuld reflect mre heat int the atmsphere, warming the rest f the wrld. Lsing the rainfrests may als influence wind and rainfall patterns, ptentially causing certain natural disasters all ver the wrld.
In the past hundred years, humans have begun destrying rainfrests in search f three majr resurces: land fr crp, wd fr paper and ther prducts, land fr raising farm animals. This actin affects the envirnment as a whle. Fr example, a lt f carbn dixide in the air cmes frm burning the rainfrest. Peple bviusly have a need fr the resurces we gain frm cutting trees but we will suffer much mre than we will benefit.
There are tw main reasns fr ________. Firstly, when peple cut dwn trees, generally they can nly use the land fr a year r tw. Secndly, cutting large sectins f rainfrests may prvide a gd supply f wd right nw, but in the lng run, it actually reduces the wrld's wd supply.
Rainfrests are ften called the wrld's drug stre. Mre than 25% f the medicines we use tday cme frm plants in rainfrests. Hwever, fewer than 1% f rainfrest plants have been examined fr their medical value. It is extremely likely that ur best chance t cure diseases lies smewhere in the wrld's shrinking（萎缩的）rainfrests.
（1）Rainfrests can help t adjust the climate because they________.
A. reflect mre heat int the atmsphere
B. bring abut high rainfall thrughut the wrld
C. rarely cause the temperature t drp lwer than 16℃
D. reduce the effect f heat frm the sun n the earth．
（2）What des the wrd "this" underlined in the third paragraph refer t？________
A. We will lse much mre than we can gain.
B. Humans have begun destrying rainfrests.
C. Peple have a strng desire fr resurces.
D. Much carbn dixide cmes frm burning rainfrests.．
（3）It can be inferred frm the text that________.
A. we can get enugh resurces withut rainfrests
B. there is great medicine ptential in rainfrests
C. we will grw fewer kinds f crps in the gained land
D. the level f annual rainfall affects wind patterns．
（4）What might be the best title fr the text？________
A. Hw t save rainfrests.
B. Hw t prtect nature.
C. Rainfrests and the envirnment.
D. Rainfrests and medical develpment.．
4. The nvel crnavirus（新冠状病毒）is a great threat. We dn't knw hw bad it will be,nr d we knw fr hw lng it will spread. But we d knw that it has already infected and killed many peple arund the wrld. It als caused serius glbal ecnmic damage. We need t adapt ur respnses t different cuntries and different parts f the same cuntry in rder t limit damage. Using data well is essential t such a successful respnse.
Data is key t all successful public health prgrams. In New Yrk City,we raised tbacc taxes and made all indr public places smke-free. Smking rates declined at first but then the decline stpped. Because we had a tracking system in place,we realized that prgress had stpped. S,we prduced strng and direct n tbacc ads t the public. Our prgrams quickly reduced adult and teenager smking,preventing mre than 100, 000 deaths. As fr epidemics,we can learn mre every day. We will be able t reduce infectins,save lives, and limit damage t sciety if we rapidly cllect, analyze and use data.
Every cuntry facing the crnavirus disease needs t strengthen their data systems t track diseases,investigate skillfully and respnd fast and successfully. Fast actin will save lives and save mney. But building the capacity t d this isn't free. It will cst abut ＄1 t ＄2 per persn per year fr at least 10 years-at least ＄30 billin. That's a lt f mney fr public health,but it's a tiny part f the amunt lst when we dn't knw what we need t knw abut health threats.
Getting the data right is hardly quick and never easy,but it is always very imprtant if we want t respnd timely,limit spread,and prtect ur cmmunities and ecnmy.
（1）Which f the fllwing statements is NOT true accrding t the passage？________
A. Nvel crnavirus has killed peple and damaged ecnmy.
B. New Yrk City succeeded in reducing smking with data.
C. We need a lt f mney t build the capacity f fast actin.
D. Using data will cure peple infected with nvel crnavirus.．
（2）Why des the authr talk abut smking in paragraph 2？________
A. t warn us that smking is harmful.
B. t suggest us hw t reduce smking.
C. t shw the significant rle f data.
D. t prtect peple's physical health.．
（3）What is the authr's pinin n the building f the capacity f fast respnse？________
A. It is t expensive and many cuntries cannt affrd it.
B. It is wrthwhile and necessary t develp such a capacity.
C. It supprts cmmunities and saves lives and saves mney.
D. It requires a tiny part f the amunt lst by health threats.．
（4）What is the main idea f this passage？________
A. The widespread f nvel crnavirus has killed many peple.
B. Using Data well is f vital imprtance t public health prgrams.
C. The imprtance f fighting against nvel crnavirus.
D. The imprtance f raising tbacc taxes.．

【解析】
本文是说明文。新冠状病毒导致全球众多人口，造成了严重的经济损失。每个面临新冠状毒病的国家都需要加强其数据系统，以跟踪疾病、进行调查和快速成功地应对，而快速应对的秘诀是迅速而又准确地获取数据。
【解答】
（1）D．细节理解题。根据第一段中"We need t adapt ur respnses …in rder t limit damage. Using data well is essential t such a successful respnse."可知，我们可以充分利用数据，调整应对措施，以减少新冠肺炎导致的经济损失，并不是利用数据治疗被新冠肺炎感染的病人。故选D项。
（2）C．推理判断题。第二段首句提到"Data is key t all successful public health prgrams.（数据是所有成功的公共卫生项目的关键。）"下文举出在纽约市所有室内公共场所禁烟的例子。通过数据跟踪系统，作者他们了解到公共场所室内禁烟有所下降，于是采取了应对措施，制作无烟广告进行宣传。该段最后一句提到"Our prgrams quickly reduced adult and teenager smking, preventing mre than 10，0000 deaths."由于数据跟踪系统的作用，迅速减少了成年人和青少年吸烟，预防了更多的死亡。因此可以推断，作者谈到公共场所禁烟的例子是为了显示数据的重要作用。故选C项。
（3）B．推理判断题。第三段中提到"Fast actin will save lives and save mney. But building the capacity t d this isn't free. …That's a lt f mney fr public health, but it's a tiny part f the amunt lst "快速应对将拯救生命、节省金钱。虽然建立这样的能力对公共健康来说是一大笔钱，但这只是当我们面对不知道的健康威胁时的损失的一小部分。由此可以推断，作者认为发展快速应对能力是值得的，也是必要的。故选B项。
（4）B．主旨大意题。通读全文，文章第一段提出"Using data well is essential t such a successful respnse." 新冠状病毒导致全球众多人口死亡，造成了严重的经济损失。充分利用数据是成功应对新冠状病毒不必可少的；第二段首句提出"Data is key t all successful public health prgrams." 数据是所有成功的公共卫生项目的关键；文章最后一段提出"it is always very imprtant if we want t respnd successfully, limit spread, and prtect ur cmmunities and ecnmy." 准确的数据对于成功应对、限制病毒传播、保护我们的社区和经济是非常重要的。由此可知，文章是关于充分利用数据对公共卫生项目的重要性和意义。故选B项。

In the quietness f my bedrm, the stry suddenly all became clear t me. It was abut a blind persn, Luis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind culdn't get much educatin. But Luis didn't give up. Instead, he invented a reading system f raised dts（点）, which pened up a whle new wrld f knwledge t the blind.
Wasn't I the "blind" in my class, being made t learn like the "sighted" students? My thughts spilled ut and my pen started t dance. I cmpleted the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was nt different frm thers; I just needed a quieter place. If Luis culd find his way ut f his prblems, why shuld I ever give up?
I didn't expect anything when I handed in my paper t Mrs. Smith, s it was quite a surprise when it came back t me the next day﹣with an "A" n it. At the bttm f the paper were these wrds: "See what yu can d when yu keep trying? "
Inspired and tuched, I began t keep trying hard in my study and struggled against attentin disrder. I believe ne can find his way ut f ________ with determinatin and effrts.
（1）The authr didn't finish the reading in class because________.
A. he was new t the class

3. A rainfrest is an area cvered by tall trees with the ttal high rainfall spreading quite equally thrugh the year and the temperature rarely dipping belw 16℃. Rainfrests have a great effect n the wrld envirnment because they can take in heat frm the sun and adjust the climate. Withut the frest cver, these areas wuld reflect mre heat int the atmsphere, warming the rest f the wrld. Lsing the rainfrests may als influence wind and rainfall patterns, ptentially causing certain natural disasters all ver the wrld.
In the past hundred years, humans have begun destrying rainfrests in search f three majr resurces: land fr crp, wd fr paper and ther prducts, land fr raising farm animals. This actin affects the envirnment as a whle. Fr example, a lt f carbn dixide in the air cmes frm burning the rainfrest. Peple bviusly have a need fr the resurces we gain frm cutting trees but we will suffer much mre than we will benefit.
There are tw main reasns fr ________. Firstly, when peple cut dwn trees, generally they can nly use the land fr a year r tw. Secndly, cutting large sectins f rainfrests may prvide a gd supply f wd right nw, but in the lng run, it actually reduces the wrld's wd supply.
Rainfrests are ften called the wrld's drug stre. Mre than 25% f the medicines we use tday cme frm plants in rainfrests. Hwever, fewer than 1% f rainfrest plants have been examined fr their medical value. It is extremely likely that ur best chance t cure diseases lies smewhere in the wrld's shrinking（萎缩的）rainfrests.
（1）Rainfrests can help t adjust the climate because they________.
A. reflect mre heat int the atmsphere
B. bring abut high rainfall thrughut the wrld
C. rarely cause the temperature t drp lwer than 16℃
D. reduce the effect f heat frm the sun n the earth．
（2）What des the wrd "this" underlined in the third paragraph refer t？________

B. Humans have begun destrying rainfrests.
C. Peple have a strng desire fr resurces.
D. Much carbn dixide cmes frm burning rainfrests.．
（3）It can be inferred frm the text that________.
A. we can get enugh resurces withut rainfrests
B. there is great medicine ptential in rainfrests
C. we will grw fewer kinds f crps in the gained land
D. the level f annual rainfall affects wind patterns．
（4）What might be the best title fr the text？________

4. The nvel crnavirus（新冠状病毒）is a great threat. We dn't knw hw bad it will be,nr d we knw fr hw lng it will spread. But we d knw that it has already infected and killed many peple arund the wrld. It als caused serius glbal ecnmic damage. We need t adapt ur respnses t different cuntries and different parts f the same cuntry in rder t limit damage. Using data well is essential t such a successful respnse.
Data is key t all successful public health prgrams. In New Yrk City,we raised tbacc taxes and made all indr public places smke-free. Smking rates declined at first but then the decline stpped. Because we had a tracking system in place,we realized that prgress had stpped. S,we prduced strng and direct n tbacc ads t the public. Our prgrams quickly reduced adult and teenager smking,preventing mre than 100, 000 deaths. As fr epidemics,we can learn mre every day. We will be able t reduce infectins,save lives, and limit damage t sciety if we rapidly cllect, analyze and use data.
Every cuntry facing the crnavirus disease needs t strengthen their data systems t track diseases,investigate skillfully and respnd fast and successfully. Fast actin will save lives and save mney. But building the capacity t d this isn't free. It will cst abut ＄1 t ＄2 per persn per year fr at least 10 years-at least ＄30 billin. That's a lt f mney fr public health,but it's a tiny part f the amunt lst when we dn't knw what we need t knw abut health threats.
Getting the data right is hardly quick and never easy,but it is always very imprtant if we want t respnd timely,limit spread,and prtect ur cmmunities and ecnmy.
（1）Which f the fllwing statements is NOT true accrding t the passage？________
A. Nvel crnavirus has killed peple and damaged ecnmy.
B. New Yrk City succeeded in reducing smking with data.
C. We need a lt f mney t build the capacity f fast actin.
D. Using data will cure peple infected with nvel crnavirus.．
（2）Why des the authr talk abut smking in paragraph 2？________
A. t warn us that smking is harmful.
B. t suggest us hw t reduce smking.
C. t shw the significant rle f data.
D. t prtect peple's physical health.．
（3）What is the authr's pinin n the building f the capacity f fast respnse？________
A. It is t expensive and many cuntries cannt affrd it.
B. It is wrthwhile and necessary t develp such a capacity.
C. It supprts cmmunities and saves lives and saves mney.
D. It requires a tiny part f the amunt lst by health threats.．
（4）What is the main idea f this passage？________
A. The widespread f nvel crnavirus has killed many peple.
B. Using Data well is f vital imprtance t public health prgrams.
C. The imprtance f fighting against nvel crnavirus.
D. The imprtance f raising tbacc taxes.．

He met her at a party. She was s utstanding，with many bys arund her，while he was s rdinary， with nbdy paying attentin t him.
At the end f the party， he invited her t have cffee with him. She was surprised，but ut f pliteness， she agreed.

Suddenly he asked the waiter， "Wuld yu please give me sme salt？I'd like t put it in my cffee."
Everybdy stared at him. S strange! His face turned red，but， still， he put the salt in his cffee and drank it.
She asked him curiusly， "Why d yu have this hbby？"
He replied， "When I was a little by，I was living near the sea. I liked playing in the sea， and I culd feel the taste f the sea， just like the taste f the salty cffee. Nw every time I have the salty cffee，I always think f my childhd. I miss s much my hmetwn and my parents wh are still living there."

本文是说明文。新冠状病毒导致全球众多人口，造成了严重的经济损失。每个面临新冠状毒病的国家都需要加强其数据系统，以跟踪疾病、进行调查和快速成功地应对，而快速应对的秘诀是迅速而又准确地获取数据。
【解答】
（1）D．细节理解题。根据第一段中"We need t adapt ur respnses …in rder t limit damage. Using data well is essential t such a successful respnse."可知，我们可以充分利用数据，调整应对措施，以减少新冠肺炎导致的经济损失，并不是利用数据治疗被新冠肺炎感染的病人。故选D项。
（2）C．推理判断题。第二段首句提到"Data is key t all successful public health prgrams.（数据是所有成功的公共卫生项目的关键。）"下文举出在纽约市所有室内公共场所禁烟的例子。通过数据跟踪系统，作者他们了解到公共场所室内禁烟有所下降，于是采取了应对措施，制作无烟广告进行宣传。该段最后一句提到"Our prgrams quickly reduced adult and teenager smking, preventing mre than 10，0000 deaths."由于数据跟踪系统的作用，迅速减少了成年人和青少年吸烟，预防了更多的死亡。因此可以推断，作者谈到公共场所禁烟的例子是为了显示数据的重要作用。故选C项。
（3）B．推理判断题。第三段中提到"Fast actin will save lives and save mney. But building the capacity t d this isn't free. …That's a lt f mney fr public health, but it's a tiny part f the amunt lst "快速应对将拯救生命、节省金钱。虽然建立这样的能力对公共健康来说是一大笔钱，但这只是当我们面对不知道的健康威胁时的损失的一小部分。由此可以推断，作者认为发展快速应对能力是值得的，也是必要的。故选B项。
（4）B．主旨大意题。通读全文，文章第一段提出"Using data well is essential t such a successful respnse." 新冠状病毒导致全球众多人口死亡，造成了严重的经济损失。充分利用数据是成功应对新冠状病毒不必可少的；第二段首句提出"Data is key t all successful public health prgrams." 数据是所有成功的公共卫生项目的关键；文章最后一段提出"it is always very imprtant if we want t respnd successfully, limit spread, and prtect ur cmmunities and ecnmy." 准确的数据对于成功应对、限制病毒传播、保护我们的社区和经济是非常重要的。由此可知，文章是关于充分利用数据对公共卫生项目的重要性和意义。故选B项。
