My name is Lucy Razil.I'm a very lucky person because I make my living doing what I love--painting beautiful pictures.
I've loved painting for as long as I can remember.I painted my first picture when I was just four.I had a bedroom with walls the color of the summer sky.One day,when Mom wasn't looking,I gathered up my paint pots and painted a summer scene on one blue wall.I painted myself and my dog Clyde in a meadow filled with flowers.I painted the sun behind a fluffy white cloud.
I was just finishing the painting when Mom walked into my room.Her mouth dropped open and she stood completely still. "I'm in big trouble," I remember thinking to myself.So I was really surprised when Mom said, "What a beautiful picture,Lucy!" The picture stayed on my bedroom wall and is still there today,nearly 30 years later.I see it every time I go home to visit Mom.
I tell this story because it shows how much Mom supported my love of painting.When I was in school,she cared as much about what I did in art class as what I did in math or reading or science.
She saved all my paintings,and she hung many of them on the walls in our house.She never said, "Painting is a fine hobby,but it's a hard way to make a living." Instead,she said, "You are so talented.You'll be a success.Follow your dream."
Today I am a success as a painter.I am happy that people love my paintings enough to hang them in their homes.I am proud that some of my paintings hang in museums around the country.Most of all,I am grateful that Mom has always supported me.Much of my success is because of her.
23.Mother felt ______ when she first saw Lucy's painting on the wall.
A. angry B. surprised C. relaxed D. worried
24.How can we tell that Lucy is a success as a painter？ ______
A. She painted her first painting at the age of 4.
B. Her bedroom painting is still there 30 years later.
C. People love her paintings and hang them in their homes.
D. Her love of painting got much support from her mother.
25.Which of the following best describes Lucy's mother？ ______
A. Strict but patient. B. Supportive and open-minded.
C. Kind but careless. D. Careful and well-organized.

In the workhouse,Oliver soon learnt that the workers were served three meals of thin gruel （稀
粥）， with an onion twice a week and half a loaf of bread on Sundays.
The evening arrived,and the boys took their places at the table.The master,in his cooled uniform,stood at the table.His poor helpers were behind him.The gruel was served out and after they spoke to God to give thanks,there was little time left to eat.The gruel soon disappeared and the bowls were empty again in a few seconds.The boys whispered each other,and encouraged Oliver to ask for more.Oliver decided to take a risk.He rose from the table and went to the master,plate and spoon in hand,said, "please,sir,I want some more." The helpers were frozen with wonder and the boys with fear.
The master was a fat,healthy man,but he turned very pale.He looked at Oliver in great surprise for some seconds,and nearly fell but for the support to the table.Nobody else spoke.
"What？" he asked at last,in a voice,hardly to be heard. "Please,sir," replied Oliver, "I want some more."
The master hit Oliver's head with the spoon and shouted for Mr.Bumble to come to deal with Oliver Twist.
Mr.Bumble came quickly,heard the news and brought the problem to the workhouse board（委员会） for advice.A heated discussion took place.At last,they put Oliver in a cold,dark room and no boys were allowed to talk to him.A notice was hung on the outside of the gate,offering a reward of five pounds to anybody who would take Oliver Twist off the hands of the workhouse.
Oliver was left in the room for a week.He cried sadly all day,and when the long night came,he spread his little hands over his eyes to shut out the darkness,and laid in the corner,trying to sleep.The cold,hard walls were protection in the fear and loneliness around him.
26.Why did Oliver ask for more gruel？ ______
A. Because he liked the gruel. B. Because he liked taking a risk.
C. Because he was very hungry. D. Because he didn't know the rule.
27.What does the underlined word "faint" mean？ ______
A. Loud. B. High. C. Calm. D. Weak.

B. He would be served with more gruel.
C. He would run away from the workhouse.
D. He would be offered a reward of five pounds.

Every now and then you may see news of satellites （卫星） sent into space.On Feb 21，for example,US company SpaceX took 46 satellites into orbit （轨道）.On Feb 27，China sent 22 satellites into space.Why do we need so many satellites？What do they do out there？
At present,there are more than 3，000 active satellites moving around the Earth.Satellites do all kinds of work.They are used to send TV signals,give you directions on the road and help scientists do research.
For example,the 22 satellites China just sent up are part of the Beidou Navigation（导航）Satellite System.Shared bikes that use BeiDou chips （芯片） can be found more easily.
Before satellites,TV signals didn't go very far.Mountains or tall buildings would block （阻碍） them.Phone calls to faraway places were also a big problem.With satellites,TV signals and phone calls can be sent directly to a satellite and back down to different places on Earth.SpaceX's Starlink project is trying to go further.It plans to use satellites to provide Internet in the future.
Satellites can also provide information about clouds,oceans,land and ice.They help scientists predict changes in weather and climate.By closely watching wildfires and volcanoes,satellites help people deal with natural disasters.Farmers can use satellite images to decide the best time to water their fields.
Some satellites fly near other planets.They may look for water on Mars or take close-up pictures of other planets.In 2020，video website Bilibili sent a satellite into space.Its job is to look at other planets and share the pictures and videos with Bilibili's users.
Like any other machines,satellites do not last forever.When they die,they either burn up or become space junk.Someday we may need to send "garbage trucks" to clean them up.
29.What's the function（作用） of Paragraph 1？ ______
A. To introduce the topic of satellites.
B. To describe what satellites are like.
C. To explain the importance of satellites.

Ideas of beauty are like the sea: they always change, but they’re always somehow the same. There are some things that have always been considered beautiful, while other fashions come and go.
Some beautiful qualities are the same across cultures and centuries. One important part of beauty is symmetry. Symmetry means how alike two halves of an object are. Faces that are symmetrical are considered more beautiful than those that aren’t. Signs of good health are also always called beautiful, such as shiny hair, clear skin, and strong teeth. Strong teeth don’t necessarily have to be white, though. In some parts of Vietnam （越南）, black teeth are considered attractive.
Other parts of beauty change with time and geography. Until recently-40 or 50 years ago, it was beautiful to be soft and round. Having some fat was considered beautiful throughout most of history. It meant that you were healthy and didn’t have to work hard. Now we know that being fit is healthy, too. Being fit is something that takes time and effort-and probably money. Being thin now shows status （地位）the way being fat did.
Different cultures have different ideas of beauty. Some cultures in Africa and Asia value long necks. Women have their necks stretched with metal rings to achieve a beautiful look. In ancient China, bound feet （裹足）were beautiful though they prevented women from walking comfortably.
Some ideas of beauty change with our opinions of health and status, but others stay the same. There are few rules about beauty. In the end, the most beautiful person in the world is the one you look at with love.
23. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “symmetry”?
A. energy B. feature C. habit D. balance
24. According to this passage, why is thinness considered attractive nowadays?
A. It represents happiness.
B. It represents wealth and good health.
C. It represents illness.
D. It represents a deep understanding of culture.
25. Which is the best title for this passage?
A. The Search for Beauty through Ages and Areas
B. Three Tips for a Beautiful Neck
C. Similar Standards of Beauty
D. The Importance of Clear Skin
C
Sunscreen or sunblock, SPF 15, SPF 60, sunscreen is covered with strange letters and numbers. Do you know how sunscreen really works?
First, let’s explain the meaning of sunscreen. Sunscreen is different from sunblock: unlike sunblock, sunscreen allows some light to reach the skin. The ingredients（原料）in sunscreen block some light, unlike those in sunblock, which block all of it. Some sunscreen ingredients absorb light and turn it into heat. Others bounce（反射）it off your skin. Different ingredients act on different kinds of light rays.
Let’s move on to SPF. SPF stands for “sun protection factor”. The higher the SPF number, the more protection you get. Experts（专家）usually recommend SPF 15 or higher.
You should learn to use it correctly. Experts recommend putting sunscreen on 15-30 minutes before you go out into the sun. Some recommend reusing sunscreen every hour or so after that. Others say you should reuse 30 minutes after going out into the sun, but then leave it alone unless you sweat or swim. An adult in a swimsuit should use about an ounce of sunscreen for his or her whole body. About one-quarter to one-third of a teaspoon is enough for the face.
Using sunscreen correctly can be the difference between healthy or unhealthy skin. Think about what you want, and get the right sun protection for you.
26. What is the article mainly about?
A. How to use sunscreen. B. The history of sunblock.
C. How to choose sunscreen. D. The important facts about sunscreen.
27. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Less than a teaspoon of sunscreen is enough for your face.
B. Ingredients in some sunscreens can absorb light and turn it into heat.
C. Sunblock allows some light to reach the skin.
D. A higher SPF means more sun protection.
28. What is the writer’s purpose in this passage?
A. To tell a series of short stories.
B. To describe different sun protection choices.
C. To make readers interested using jokes.
D. To warn of the dangers of too much sunshine.
D
Some years ago, our head teacher, Mrs. Water decided to start a school newspaper, and get as many students as possible to take on the job of producing it—and parents, too. She felt the newspaper would help them learn more about school life, through articles on things like sports achievements and art projects, which not all students know about if they’re not taking part. Students took the whole thing very seriously—and we now have a prize—winning newspaper!
Some of my friends joined the newspaper team immediately and enjoyed it. I’d always loved creative writing and drawing cartoons, which I thought would be perfect in the newspaper, so I signed up. My dad, who’s a reporter, was pleased—he thought that even though I wasn’t fond of a job like his, the newspaper would be a great chance for me. And he was right—I loved it! Dad often came along to give advice, which was popular with the students. It was difficult sometimes, if he was busy, but he learned a lot about the school that way.
My first job was writing a report about a sports event—a writing style I’d never tried before. But Dad reminded it was similar in some ways to writing a story—getting information in the right order. Once I’d understood that, there was no stopping me — and after my first efforts, I developed quite a professional （专业的）style, which was fantastic. Sometimes the team couldn’t use what I’d written, or my cartoons, for whatever reason, but I didn’t mind. And sometimes it was hard to finish articles on time, but I usually got there.
I’m now one of the editors—we decide what goes into the newspaper, so our names no longer appear in print. And it’s stressful sometimes as we don’t have much time, but we try to manage that properly. We also correct mistakes in people’s articles, which we all had to get used to, but we were soon doing it without thinking— and in our own schoolwork, too. I still put off calling people outside school for comments （评论）on articles, but I guess it’s all good experience—at least, that’s what Dad says!
29. Mrs. Water wanted to start a student newspaper to ________.
A. provide an activity for students not interested in sports or art
B. make students feel more confident about taking part in something
C. keep students better informed about what was happening at school
D. give students the experience of being successful at something
30. The writer decided to join the newspaper because ________.
A. he had ideas about some work he could do for it
B. he was considering a career in writing news
C. his friends had encouraged him to do so
D. he liked the idea of being part of a team
31. When the writer first started working on the newspaper, he was ________.
A. unhappy when his stories sometimes weren’t used
B. satisfied with the way his writing skills improved
C. pleased to find he could make use of his art skills
D. worried he’d be late completing some of his writing
32. What does the writer say about his role on the newspaper now?
A. He feels uncomfortable about correcting other students’ work.
B. He still needs to improve the way he manages his time.
C. He’s happier to deal with making phone calls to others.
D. He’s become better at making articles correct.

Daniel Defoe, the writer of Robinson Crusoe, was born on 13 September, 1660, in London. His father was a wealthy businessman. In Defoe's early life, he experienced some of the most unusual events in English history: in 1665, 70,000 were killed by the Great Plague of London, and next year, the Great Fire of London which left only Defoe's and two other houses standing in his neighborhood. In 1667, when he was probably about seven, a Dutch fleet（舰队）sailed up the Medway by way of the River Thames and attacked the town of Chatham. His mother Annie had died by the time he was about ten.
Defoe is among the founders of the English novel, known to have used at least 198 pen names. He is most famous for his novel Robinson Crusoe, which is second only to the Bible in its number of translations. Defoe was a prolific writer, producing more than three hundred works—books, pamphlets, and journals—on diverse topics, including politics, crime, religion, marriage, psychology, and the supernatural. Defoe wrote many political tracts and often was in trouble with the government, including prison time. He was also a pioneer of business and economic journalism（新闻业）. Intellectuals and political leaders paid attention to his fresh ideas and sometimes consulted with him.
Defoe also entered the world of business as a general merchant, dealing at different times in hosiery, general woollen goods, and wine. His ambitions were great and he was able to buy a country estate and a ship, though he was rarely out of debt. He was forced to declare bankruptcy(宣布破产) in 1692. On 1 January 1684, Defoe married Mary Tuffley, the daughter of a London merchant, receiving a dowry（嫁妆）of £3,700—a huge amount by the standards of the day. With his debts and political difficulties, the marriage may have been troubled, but it lasted about 50 years and produced eight children.
Daniel Defoe died on 24 April 1731. He had probably experienced a stroke(中风). He was buried in Borough of Islington, London, where a monument was built in memory of him.
29. Daniel Defoe was_______ and the writer of_______.
A. an Englishman, “A Tale of Two Cities” B. an American, “A Million Pound Note”

My name is Lucy Razil.I'm a very lucky person because I make my living doing what I love--painting beautiful pictures.
I've loved painting for as long as I can remember.I painted my first picture when I was just four.I had a bedroom with walls the color of the summer sky.One day,when Mom wasn't looking,I gathered up my paint pots and painted a summer scene on one blue wall.I painted myself and my dog Clyde in a meadow filled with flowers.I painted the sun behind a fluffy white cloud.
I was just finishing the painting when Mom walked into my room.Her mouth dropped open and she stood completely still. "I'm in big trouble," I remember thinking to myself.So I was really surprised when Mom said, "What a beautiful picture,Lucy!" The picture stayed on my bedroom wall and is still there today,nearly 30 years later.I see it every time I go home to visit Mom.
I tell this story because it shows how much Mom supported my love of painting.When I was in school,she cared as much about what I did in art class as what I did in math or reading or science.
She saved all my paintings,and she hung many of them on the walls in our house.She never said, "Painting is a fine hobby,but it's a hard way to make a living." Instead,she said, "You are so talented.You'll be a success.Follow your dream."
Today I am a success as a painter.I am happy that people love my paintings enough to hang them in their homes.I am proud that some of my paintings hang in museums around the country.Most of all,I am grateful that Mom has always supported me.Much of my success is because of her.

In the workhouse,Oliver soon learnt that the workers were served three meals of thin gruel （稀
粥）， with an onion twice a week and half a loaf of bread on Sundays.
The evening arrived,and the boys took their places at the table.The master,in his cooled uniform,stood at the table.His poor helpers were behind him.The gruel was served out and after they spoke to God to give thanks,there was little time left to eat.The gruel soon disappeared and the bowls were empty again in a few seconds.The boys whispered each other,and encouraged Oliver to ask for more.Oliver decided to take a risk.He rose from the table and went to the master,plate and spoon in hand,said, "please,sir,I want some more." The helpers were frozen with wonder and the boys with fear.
The master was a fat,healthy man,but he turned very pale.He looked at Oliver in great surprise for some seconds,and nearly fell but for the support to the table.Nobody else spoke.
"What？" he asked at last,in a voice,hardly to be heard. "Please,sir," replied Oliver, "I want some more."
The master hit Oliver's head with the spoon and shouted for Mr.Bumble to come to deal with Oliver Twist.
Mr.Bumble came quickly,heard the news and brought the problem to the workhouse board（委员会） for advice.A heated discussion took place.At last,they put Oliver in a cold,dark room and no boys were allowed to talk to him.A notice was hung on the outside of the gate,offering a reward of five pounds to anybody who would take Oliver Twist off the hands of the workhouse.
Oliver was left in the room for a week.He cried sadly all day,and when the long night came,he spread his little hands over his eyes to shut out the darkness,and laid in the corner,trying to sleep.The cold,hard walls were protection in the fear and loneliness around him.
26.Why did Oliver ask for more gruel？ ______
A. Because he liked the gruel. B. Because he liked taking a risk.
C. Because he was very hungry. D. Because he didn't know the rule.
27.What does the underlined word "faint" mean？ ______
A. Loud. B. High. C. Calm. D. Weak.

Every now and then you may see news of satellites （卫星） sent into space.On Feb 21，for example,US company SpaceX took 46 satellites into orbit （轨道）.On Feb 27，China sent 22 satellites into space.Why do we need so many satellites？What do they do out there？
At present,there are more than 3，000 active satellites moving around the Earth.Satellites do all kinds of work.They are used to send TV signals,give you directions on the road and help scientists do research.
For example,the 22 satellites China just sent up are part of the Beidou Navigation（导航）Satellite System.Shared bikes that use BeiDou chips （芯片） can be found more easily.
Before satellites,TV signals didn't go very far.Mountains or tall buildings would block （阻碍） them.Phone calls to faraway places were also a big problem.With satellites,TV signals and phone calls can be sent directly to a satellite and back down to different places on Earth.SpaceX's Starlink project is trying to go further.It plans to use satellites to provide Internet in the future.
Satellites can also provide information about clouds,oceans,land and ice.They help scientists predict changes in weather and climate.By closely watching wildfires and volcanoes,satellites help people deal with natural disasters.Farmers can use satellite images to decide the best time to water their fields.
Some satellites fly near other planets.They may look for water on Mars or take close-up pictures of other planets.In 2020，video website Bilibili sent a satellite into space.Its job is to look at other planets and share the pictures and videos with Bilibili's users.
Like any other machines,satellites do not last forever.When they die,they either burn up or become space junk.Someday we may need to send "garbage trucks" to clean them up.
29.What's the function（作用） of Paragraph 1？ ______
A. To introduce the topic of satellites.
B. To describe what satellites are like.
C. To explain the importance of satellites.

Ideas of beauty are like the sea: they always change, but they’re always somehow the same. There are some things that have always been considered beautiful, while other fashions come and go.
Some beautiful qualities are the same across cultures and centuries. One important part of beauty is symmetry. Symmetry means how alike two halves of an object are. Faces that are symmetrical are considered more beautiful than those that aren’t. Signs of good health are also always called beautiful, such as shiny hair, clear skin, and strong teeth. Strong teeth don’t necessarily have to be white, though. In some parts of Vietnam （越南）, black teeth are considered attractive.
Other parts of beauty change with time and geography. Until recently-40 or 50 years ago, it was beautiful to be soft and round. Having some fat was considered beautiful throughout most of history. It meant that you were healthy and didn’t have to work hard. Now we know that being fit is healthy, too. Being fit is something that takes time and effort-and probably money. Being thin now shows status （地位）the way being fat did.
Different cultures have different ideas of beauty. Some cultures in Africa and Asia value long necks. Women have their necks stretched with metal rings to achieve a beautiful look. In ancient China, bound feet （裹足）were beautiful though they prevented women from walking comfortably.
Some ideas of beauty change with our opinions of health and status, but others stay the same. There are few rules about beauty. In the end, the most beautiful person in the world is the one you look at with love.
23. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “symmetry”?
A. energy B. feature C. habit D. balance
24. According to this passage, why is thinness considered attractive nowadays?
A. It represents happiness.
B. It represents wealth and good health.
C. It represents illness.
D. It represents a deep understanding of culture.
25. Which is the best title for this passage?
A. The Search for Beauty through Ages and Areas
B. Three Tips for a Beautiful Neck
C. Similar Standards of Beauty
D. The Importance of Clear Skin
C
Sunscreen or sunblock, SPF 15, SPF 60, sunscreen is covered with strange letters and numbers. Do you know how sunscreen really works?
First, let’s explain the meaning of sunscreen. Sunscreen is different from sunblock: unlike sunblock, sunscreen allows some light to reach the skin. The ingredients（原料）in sunscreen block some light, unlike those in sunblock, which block all of it. Some sunscreen ingredients absorb light and turn it into heat. Others bounce（反射）it off your skin. Different ingredients act on different kinds of light rays.
Let’s move on to SPF. SPF stands for “sun protection factor”. The higher the SPF number, the more protection you get. Experts（专家）usually recommend SPF 15 or higher.
You should learn to use it correctly. Experts recommend putting sunscreen on 15-30 minutes before you go out into the sun. Some recommend reusing sunscreen every hour or so after that. Others say you should reuse 30 minutes after going out into the sun, but then leave it alone unless you sweat or swim. An adult in a swimsuit should use about an ounce of sunscreen for his or her whole body. About one-quarter to one-third of a teaspoon is enough for the face.
Using sunscreen correctly can be the difference between healthy or unhealthy skin. Think about what you want, and get the right sun protection for you.
26. What is the article mainly about?
A. How to use sunscreen. B. The history of sunblock.
C. How to choose sunscreen. D. The important facts about sunscreen.
27. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Less than a teaspoon of sunscreen is enough for your face.
B. Ingredients in some sunscreens can absorb light and turn it into heat.
C. Sunblock allows some light to reach the skin.
D. A higher SPF means more sun protection.
28. What is the writer’s purpose in this passage?
A. To tell a series of short stories.
B. To describe different sun protection choices.
C. To make readers interested using jokes.
D. To warn of the dangers of too much sunshine.
D
Some years ago, our head teacher, Mrs. Water decided to start a school newspaper, and get as many students as possible to take on the job of producing it—and parents, too. She felt the newspaper would help them learn more about school life, through articles on things like sports achievements and art projects, which not all students know about if they’re not taking part. Students took the whole thing very seriously—and we now have a prize—winning newspaper!
Some of my friends joined the newspaper team immediately and enjoyed it. I’d always loved creative writing and drawing cartoons, which I thought would be perfect in the newspaper, so I signed up. My dad, who’s a reporter, was pleased—he thought that even though I wasn’t fond of a job like his, the newspaper would be a great chance for me. And he was right—I loved it! Dad often came along to give advice, which was popular with the students. It was difficult sometimes, if he was busy, but he learned a lot about the school that way.
My first job was writing a report about a sports event—a writing style I’d never tried before. But Dad reminded it was similar in some ways to writing a story—getting information in the right order. Once I’d understood that, there was no stopping me — and after my first efforts, I developed quite a professional （专业的）style, which was fantastic. Sometimes the team couldn’t use what I’d written, or my cartoons, for whatever reason, but I didn’t mind. And sometimes it was hard to finish articles on time, but I usually got there.
I’m now one of the editors—we decide what goes into the newspaper, so our names no longer appear in print. And it’s stressful sometimes as we don’t have much time, but we try to manage that properly. We also correct mistakes in people’s articles, which we all had to get used to, but we were soon doing it without thinking— and in our own schoolwork, too. I still put off calling people outside school for comments （评论）on articles, but I guess it’s all good experience—at least, that’s what Dad says!
29. Mrs. Water wanted to start a student newspaper to ________.
A. provide an activity for students not interested in sports or art
B. make students feel more confident about taking part in something
C. keep students better informed about what was happening at school
D. give students the experience of being successful at something
30. The writer decided to join the newspaper because ________.
A. he had ideas about some work he could do for it
B. he was considering a career in writing news
C. his friends had encouraged him to do so
D. he liked the idea of being part of a team
31. When the writer first started working on the newspaper, he was ________.
A. unhappy when his stories sometimes weren’t used
B. satisfied with the way his writing skills improved
C. pleased to find he could make use of his art skills
D. worried he’d be late completing some of his writing
32. What does the writer say about his role on the newspaper now?
A. He feels uncomfortable about correcting other students’ work.
B. He still needs to improve the way he manages his time.
C. He’s happier to deal with making phone calls to others.
D. He’s become better at making articles correct.

Daniel Defoe, the writer of Robinson Crusoe, was born on 13 September, 1660, in London. His father was a wealthy businessman. In Defoe's early life, he experienced some of the most unusual events in English history: in 1665, 70,000 were killed by the Great Plague of London, and next year, the Great Fire of London which left only Defoe's and two other houses standing in his neighborhood. In 1667, when he was probably about seven, a Dutch fleet（舰队）sailed up the Medway by way of the River Thames and attacked the town of Chatham. His mother Annie had died by the time he was about ten.
Defoe is among the founders of the English novel, known to have used at least 198 pen names. He is most famous for his novel Robinson Crusoe, which is second only to the Bible in its number of translations. Defoe was a prolific writer, producing more than three hundred works—books, pamphlets, and journals—on diverse topics, including politics, crime, religion, marriage, psychology, and the supernatural. Defoe wrote many political tracts and often was in trouble with the government, including prison time. He was also a pioneer of business and economic journalism（新闻业）. Intellectuals and political leaders paid attention to his fresh ideas and sometimes consulted with him.
Defoe also entered the world of business as a general merchant, dealing at different times in hosiery, general woollen goods, and wine. His ambitions were great and he was able to buy a country estate and a ship, though he was rarely out of debt. He was forced to declare bankruptcy(宣布破产) in 1692. On 1 January 1684, Defoe married Mary Tuffley, the daughter of a London merchant, receiving a dowry（嫁妆）of £3,700—a huge amount by the standards of the day. With his debts and political difficulties, the marriage may have been troubled, but it lasted about 50 years and produced eight children.
Daniel Defoe died on 24 April 1731. He had probably experienced a stroke(中风). He was buried in Borough of Islington, London, where a monument was built in memory of him.
29. Daniel Defoe was_______ and the writer of_______.
A. an Englishman, “A Tale of Two Cities” B. an American, “A Million Pound Note”
