On a hot day，many people like to go to the beach.Some beaches，however，are not safe for swimming.
At some beaches，there are sharks in the water.So people put out shark nets.They help stop too many sharks from getting close to the beach.Sharks can still swim under or around the net.But if they try to swim through，they will get caught.Sharks can die if they are not cut free.
Shark nets don't just catch sharks.They can catch other animals，too.They have caught dolphins，stingrays and turtles.Even a whale has been caught in a shark net.I took many people to get it free.
Some animals are not so lucky.They are killed in the nets.One day，a whale was swimming with her calf.The calf got caught in a shark net.The mother whale tried to get the calf to come with her.The calf was caught in the net.It couldn't get free.The mother had to watch it die.
Many people think shark nets should not be used.Sharks are important to the ocean.They eat sick and dead fish.They help to keep the ocean clean.Sharks are the lions and the tigers of the sea.
Some people think there are other ways to keep beach safe for people.Sharks potters are people who watch for sharks.They go to a high place.Then they can look down on the beach.If they see a shark，a siren（汽笛）will sound.They put up a white flag.Then people get out of the water.
After all，the water is a shark's home.

At an early time，a paper ticket was necessary even for passengers who bought tickets online.But now people are saying goodbye to paper tickets.
Passengers can swipe（刷）an ID card to pass through a gate before taking a high﹣speed train. "It's very convenient and fast， "said Wu Yuanzhen，a passenger from Guangxi. "I am a business man and travel a lot by train.For us，time is money.E﹣tickets save time and improve travel efficiency（效率）. "
For passengers who need to change or return their tickets，they can change the tickets or get their fund（退款） through 12306.cn or the ticket office at the station.
Since 2011，passengers have been able to swipe their ID cards at self﹣service machines to take the Beijing﹣Tianjin high﹣speed railway and Beijing﹣Shanghai high﹣speed railway.And now checking﹣in by swiping an ID card is available at high﹣speed railway stations in most cities across China.At stations in some remote（偏远）areas，passengers still need a paper ticket to get on a train.

Paul smiled a little．He thought he knew what the boy wanted．He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car．But Paul was wrong again，"Will you stop where those two stairs are？"the boy asked．
He went up to the stairs．Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back，but he was not comming fast．He was carrying his little crippled（残疾的）brother．He sat on the stair and pointed to the car．
"There he is，Buddy，just like I told you upstairs．His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn't cost him a dollar．And some day I'm going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Chritmas windows that I've been trying to tell you about．"

Why is it that the people you meet when backpacking（背包旅行）seem to be more interesting and outgoing than your friends at home？That's my experience，anyway.Very often，you'll meet people that are fun to travel with and worth getting to know.I've spent time with people of many countries and have found out some interesting things about their cultures.It's a great way to learn more about the world.
It's often easy to make new friends while you're traveling，and you'll be able to hang around with them for a few days，until one of you leaves for the next exciting place.Relationships of this kind are shorter but can be just as strong as friendships back home，because you do so much together in that short time.I often find I like to share things about myself that I'd never say to my close friends.It is safe，I think，because we probably won't meet again，except online.
One thing that's important when you're backpacking is to make sure you carry only basic needs，so your backpack isn't too heavy.I travel" "light" these days.One good tip someone gave me is to take old clothes and just throw them away when you move on，instead of washing and waiting for things to dry.Many hostels（小旅社）don't provide shampoo and shower gel.You can get mini bottles in supermarkets.
I've discovered that many backpackers visit little places other tourists don't go to，and by using local shops and guest houses，they help those places with much﹣needed financial（经济上的）support.Most small guest houses allow you to stay for unlimited time，so you can spend as long as you like exploring the local area.Backpackers are also kinder to the environment，because they use trains and buses rather than cars.So，what are you waiting for？ （By Andy Robinson）
（1）According to Andy，friendships made with other backpackers .
A.are less serious than those with his friends at home
B.end at the moment they separate from each other
C.help him to decide where he would like to travel to
D.allow him to talk about himself in an honest way
（2）Which text message would Andy send to a friend？"
A |
"Why don't you fly out to visit me？We'll stay in a famous hotel on the coast. " |
B |
"I'm leaving here tomorrow and then I will drive a car along the coast. " |
C |
"I've met some great people.Tomorrow we're going by boat to an ancient village in the mountains together. " |
D |
"I'm glad I filled up my backpack –I've got everything I need，though it isn't easy to carry it around!" |
（3）The best title for the passage can be .
A.Friendships on the Way
B.Traveling with a Backpack
C.A Backpacking Experience
D.Tips on Travel
Have you ever had dreams about building a robot？Or putting together a spaceship？Or even seeing your face made out of chocolate？Done．All you need is a 3﹣D printer．
The possibilities of 3﹣D printing seem endless （无穷尽的）．All the user has to do is to design an object on the computer and choose a material to print in．The printers print in hundreds of different materials including glass，sugar and even skin!When the user presses （按）﹣print，the 3﹣D printer spreads the materials layer （层） by layer and like magic the object is produced．
The first 3﹣D printer was invented in 1986by American，Charles Hull．But 3﹣D printing has only become cheap enough recently for most people to use．Designers now use 3﹣D printing to create unusual things．The Dutch artist Dirk Vander Kooj prints furniture made from old fridges．
And doctors have used 3﹣D printing to print human body parts!The Telegraph reported in February that scientists from Cornell Medical College even printed a man﹣made ear．But like a lot of new technologies，if 3﹣D printing gets into the wrong hands，it can be dangerous．
In 2011a group of four men in the US used 3﹣D printing to Produce ATM skimmers （提款机盗刷器）．These were placed on an ATM and stole over ＄400，000from users of the ATM．It is terrible to think that criminals like them might one day use a 3﹣D printer to print a gun．But for better or for worse，3﹣D printing has been put into use．In a few years，you'll probably be wondering how you could ever live without your 3﹣D printer!

Most children are taught the virtue （美德） of honesty from stories.The well﹣known story of Pinocchio teaches the importance of telling the truth.Every time Pinocchio lies，his nose grows longer and longer.Another story is about the boy who"cried wolf." In the end，he loses all his sheep and the trust of his fellow villagers because he tells lies many times.These types of stories show children that "honesty is the best policy." Still，if thisis the case，then why do so many people lie？The fact is that people lie for many reasons.
One reason people lie is to minimize （减少） a mistake.While it is true that everyone does something wrong from time to time，some people do not have the courage to admit their errors （错误） because they are afraid they will be blamed.For example，students might lie to their teachers about unfinished homework.They might say that they left the work at home when，in fact，they did not do the work at all.These students do not want to get in trouble or seem irresponsible，so they make up an excuse﹣ a lie﹣ to save face.
Another reason for lying has to do with self﹣protection.Parents，particularly those with young children，may teach their children to use this type of"protective" lie in certain circumstances （状况）.What should children do if a stranger calls while the parents are out？Many parents teach their children to explain that their mother and father are too busy to come to the phone at that time.In this situation，protective lying can mean greater safety.
People lie for many reasons，both good and bad.Lying to keep the peace or to stay safe can have positive results.However，lying to stay out of trouble can lead to more trouble in the end.Understanding the motives behind the impulse （冲动） to lie might minimize this habit of lying.
（1）What does the underlined word"this" refer to in the passage？
| A． |
Honesty is the best policy. |
| B． |
The well﹣known story of Pinocchio. |
| C． |
The story of the boy who"cried wolf". |
（2）Why do some children lie to their teachers？
| A． |
Because they like making up an excuse. |
| B． |
Because they have left the homework at home. |
| C． |
Because they are afraid to be blamed at school. |
（3）How does the writer explain why people tell lies？
| A． |
By asking questions. |
| B． |
By giving examples. |
| C． |
By showing the results. |
（4）What is the correct structure of the passage？ （P﹣paragraph 1）
| A． |
|
| B． |
|
| C． |
|
（5）What's the best title for the passage？
| A． |
The Truth behind Lying. |

If you don't know what your friends are doing，will you get anxious （焦虑的）？Fifty﹣ one percent of teenagers said yes when they were asked this question in a recent study.The fear that "I'm absent while others might be having fun" is called FOMO - fear of missing out.

When I was very young，people in our village lived by planting fruit trees.My grandmother always took me to the orchard（果园） on the hill.At that time，they had to carry water from the river at the foot of the hill to halfway up the hill.Even though we worked so hard，the production level of fruit was still low because it was short of water there.
One day，two young men led a group of workers to our village.They learned about the difficulties we faced，and later，canals and other projects began to be built in my village， "Who are they？" I asked. "They are good men from our government，" my grandma replied.
Shortly afterwards，I moved to another city for my junior high school.The only reason I ever came back to my hometown was my grandmother.
One day，my family and I made time to return.We were surprised because everything had changed.The canal ran past every orchard so villagers didn't have to go up and down the hill anymore.The river was now so clean that fish swam happily in it.When we arrived home，my grandma took out some fresh pears and apples.She told us that after the water conservation project（水利工程） was completed a policy（政策） was made to encourage more people to increase the fruit production with clean water in the river.
Thank those good men who have devoted themselves to the development of our countryside.

Most viruses can be found and killed by our immune system as soon as they enter our bodies.However，some viruses，for example，the coronavirus，are sneaky.They are difficult to recognize and find.These viruses can cause deadly diseases，like COVID﹣19.Human﹣to﹣human transmission can easily occur，and pandemic will therefore break out.Vaccination is by now a simple，safe and effective way to protect us from the diseases.
▲Vaccines are something that "looks" exactly the same as the viruses，mainly made from the viruses that are weakened or killed.They will not make us really ill.They only stimulate and activate our immune system to work，telling it something harmful is coming in.The immune system will know what the "viruses" look like，and send B cells（lymphocytes）or antibodies to find and kill them.Meanwhile，B cells will remember them for the next kill.A vaccine may also give us passive immunity by providing B cells taken from an animal or a human to play the same role.
Scientists have developed more than 180 vaccines to fight against COVID49.The technical approaches of these vaccines can be a little different，but their aims are the same.
Take the inactivated vaccine as an example.In an inactivated vaccine，the coronaviruses are already killed or made into the ones unable to produce more new viruses.When the immune system "sees" them，it will try to kill them.The question is：without enough these viruses• how can B cells remember them？That's why we need to take the vaccine more than one time.Though this vaccine is safe，it might not be as effective as it is expected to be.
The live﹣attenuated vaccine is different.In this vaccine，the viruses are weakened，but they are alive.They can produce enough new viruses to train the immune system to kill and remember them，so people only need to take the vaccine once.The live﹣attenuated vaccine is considered the most effective，but there is a worry：what might happen once these viruses wake up？
Therefore，although vaccination is by now one of the best ways to protect us from COVID﹣19，it can be better.
（1）The coronavirus can .
| A． |
not be killed |
| B． |
not be found |
| C． |
cause deaths |
| D． |
stop pandemic |
（2）Which of the following can be the best topic sentence of Paragraph 2？
| A． |
Vaccination can provide us with B cells. |
| B． |
Vaccines are made from different viruses. |
| C． |
Vaccination can prepare us against viruses. |
| D． |
Vaccines won't make us ill as the viruses do. |
（3）Compared to the inactivated vaccine，the live﹣attenuated vaccine .
| A． |
needs taking more than once |
| B． |
is equally safe |
| C． |
contains viruses that are killed |
| D． |
is more effective |
（4）What can we learn from the passage？
| A． |
Vaccination is good enough to treat COVID﹣19. |
| B． |
The immune system can be more effective with vaccines. |
| C． |
The viruses in inactivated vaccines can make new viruses. |
| D． |
180 vaccines have been developed to fight against diseases. |

Have you ever thought how important T﹣shirts are in your life？I don't mean expensive designer T﹣shirts，After all，just because you spend a lot of money on a shirt doesn't mean that it looks good.I'm talking about the T﹣shirts that say something about you，like where you've been，what you like，or what you think.Those are often the T﹣shirts that we feel the most comfortable in and that we wear again and again.I'm going to tell you about two T﹣shirts that I really，really love and explain why.

When most people decide to buy food, they go to a grocery store. Grocery stores sell many different kinds of food in just one store. Some grocery stores also sell household goods such as kitchen paper, cleaning things, and diapers （尿布）. A grocery store is a convenient place to shop for the kitchen and others.
Although it is comfortable and relaxing to shop at a grocery store, some people decide to buy their food from other places like farmers' markets. At a farmers' market, local farmers sell the foods they grow to customers. The foods they sell often include fruits, vegetables, and meats. Most of these foods are freshly harvested（收获）with no man-made additions.
There are several ways in which farmers' markets are less convenient than grocery stores. For example, packed foods usually are not sold at farmers' markets. Besides, many farmers do not accept credit（信用）cards or checks （支票）as payment for their goods. What is more, most farmers' markets are only open for business once or twice each week. This makes some people not want to shop at farmers' markets, but others are willing because of the fresh and local food there.
Deciding whether to shop for food at grocery stores or at farmers' markets is a personal choice. This choice reflects a person's values about life and about food. Those who value convenience and（多样）will probably choose to shop at a grocery store. People who value freshness and enjoy supporting local farmers will probably prefer the farmers' markets. Luckily, most communities provide choices for both kinds of shoppers.
（1）According to the passage，which of the following may not be sold at a farmers' market？
| A． |
Apples. |
| B． |
Potatoes. |
| C． |
Beef. |
| D． |
Kitchen paper. |
（2）We can NOT infer（推断） from Paragraph 3.
| A． |
grocery stores sell packed foods |
| B． |
people can use credit cards as payment at grocery stores |
| C． |
grocery stores sell fresh and local food with no man﹣made additions |
| D． |
grocery stores are open for business more often than farmers' market |
