A
Elizabeth Blackwell was born in England in 1821, and moved to New York City when she was ten years old. One day she decided that she wanted to become a doctor. That was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. After writing many letters asking for admission(录取) to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. She was so determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling.
In 1849, after graduation from medical school, she decided to further her
education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon(外科医师) , but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea.
Upon returning to the United States, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. By 1857 Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children. Besides being the first woman physician and founding her own hospital , she also set up the first medical school for women.
21. Why couldn’t Elizabeth Blackwell realize her dream of becoming a surgeon? A. She couldn’t get admitted to medical school. B. She decided to further her education in Paris. C. A serious eye problem stopped her.
D. It was difficult for her to start a practice in the United States.
22. What main obstacle(障碍) almost destroyed Elizabeth’s chances for becoming a doctor?
A. She was a woman. B. She wrote too many letters.
C. She couldn’t graduate from medical school. D. She couldn’t set up her hospital.
23. According to the passage, all of the following are “firsts” in the life of Elizabeth Blacekwell, except that she ______. A. became the first woman physician
B. was the first woman doctor
C. and several other women founded the first hospital for women and children D. set up the first medical school for women
B
About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier; only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman!
There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shadows of green.
Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green － a strange world indeed.
Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also
millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us shape but no color.
Some insects（昆虫） have favorite colors. Mosquitoes（蚊子） prefer blue to yellow. A red light will not attract（吸引） insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the help of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the help of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible（不可见）colors around us.
24. The passage is mainly about _____________. A. color and its surprising effects. B. women being luckier than men C. danger caused by color blindness D. color blindness
25. Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women? A. Women are more careful.
B. There are fewer color-blind women C. Women are fonder of driving than men. D. Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.
26. We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a _____________. A. red light B. yellow light C. blue light D. green light
C
The Eiffel Tower is very famous in France. It is visited by 7 million visitors a year. The Eiffel Tower was designed by Gustave Eiffel in the late 19th century.
On Monday, March 31st, 2019, it turned 130.
The look of the Eiffel Tower is greatly loved by people today, but things were different when the design was first shown to the public. Many French artists thought that the design was ugly. However, Eiffel did not change a thing. He believed that once it was completed, people in Paris and visitors around the world would love the tower. He was certainly right.
The tower became popular with the public as soon as it opened on March 31st, 1889, two years after the construction began. Over 3,000 people came to look at this new tower and even made the effort to climb the 1,710 stairs to the top.
The 984-foot-tall Chrysler Building in New York City beat it.
Today, the tower houses a number of restaurants on its first and second levels. The third level has been turned into a vast platform (平台). From there visitors can see the entire city of Paris. While visitors are allowed to take the stairs to the first two levels, the platform can only be got to by taking the elevators.
To ensure that the “Iron Lady” always looks good, the tower is cleaned and repainted every eight years. It’s an effort that takes a team of 25 workers, an entire year. If you travel to Paris one day, don’t miss it, the excellent achievement. 27.When Gustave Eiffel first showed his design to the public, _________. A. the public celebrated the birth of it B. many French artists disliked the design C. the public thought it would be a popular tower D. many French artists decided to change the design 28.When did the construction of the Eiffel Tower start?
A. In 1887. B. In 1888. C. In 1889. D. In 1890. 29.What do we learn about the levels of the Eiffel Tower? A. The first level is provided for hotels. B. Restaurants are all on the second level. C. The third level is mainly for sightseeing. D. The elevators can go to all the three levels.
30.The writer mainly wants to tell us about Eiffel Tower’s _______. A. 130th celebration B. popularity C. brief history D. designer

George's mother was very poor and was sick. Instead of having bright fires in winter, she had nothing to burn but dry sticks, which George picked up from under the trees.
One fine day in July, his sick mother sent him to the woods. He was to stay there all day, to get as much wood as he could collect.
It was a bright, sunny day, and George worked very hard, so that by the time the sun was high, he was hot, and wished for a cool place where he might rest and eat his dinner. While he hunted for a spot about the bank he saw among the grass some fine, wild strawberries.
\"How good these will be with my bread and butter!\" thought George Lining his cap with leaves, he set to work eagerly to gather all he could find, and then seated himself by the river.
It was a pleasant place, and George felt happy and satisfied. He thought how much his mother would like to see him there, and to be there herself, instead of in her dark room in the village.
George thought of all this, and just as he was lifting the first strawberry to his mouth, he said to himself. \"How much Mum would like these!\" and he stopped, and put the strawberry back again. \"Shall I save them for her?\" said he, thinking how much they would refresh her, yet still looking at them with a longing(渴望的) eye. \"I will eat half , and take the other half to her\said he at last, and he divided them into two heaps(堆). But each heap looked so small, that he put them together again.
\"I will only taste one.\" thought he. As he again lifted it to his mouth, he saw that he had taken the finest and he put it back. \"I will keep them all for her.\" said he with great happiness, and he covered them up nicely ready to take home. 注意：1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；2. 使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语；3. 续写部分分两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；4. 续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。 Paragraph 1

Possible answer:
He stood up and started to get more and more wood until the sun was beginning to sink. George set out for home. He carried his cap filled with strawberries very carefully. How happy he felt then! He had all his strawberries for his sick mother. The nearer he came to his home, the less he wished to taste them. He arrived home before he knew it.
Just as he had thrown down his wood, he heard his mother calling him from the next room. “Is that you, George? I am glad you have come, for I am thirsty and I'm longing for some tea. Could you get some for me?” George ran to her and joyfully offered her all the wild strawberries. Seeing the wild strawberries, George's mother was very glad, tears running down her face. She said, “My boy, you didn't taste one of the strawberries and saved all for your sick mother. God will bless you for all this, my child.” At that moment, George and his mother were both filled with happiness.

W: Last Christmas, I was invited to Canada by my aunt Judy. I have never been to other countries. So I was so excited about the trip that I didn’t sleep well for several nights. On the day of leaving, my father thought that I might be caught in the traffic jam if I took a bus to the airport, so he drove me there. But our car broke down on the way. As the time went by, I began to worry about missing the flight. I decided to stop a car to take me to the airport. Many cars went past me with high speed before a white Bora stopped by my side. Thanks to the driver, I arrived at the airport just in time at 1:50 p.m. to catch my plane which would leave ten minutes later. It was my first flight and I was a bit nervous. When the plane was taking off, my ears felt funny. I was really sick. Luckily it was all over after a while. On my window seat, I could enjoy the bird’s-eye view of beautiful cities, land, grass, forests and blue sea. Sometimes our plane flew right over the white clouds. Unluckily I didn’t see any hills. Maybe I missed them. What a wonderful view!
