In another corner of the room were a gas burner(煤气灶)and a fridge. Mrs. Jones got up and walked there. She did not watch the boy to see if he was going to run now, nor did she watch her handbag, which she left behind her on the sofa. But the boy was careful to sit on the far side of the room, away from the bag, where he thought she could easily see him out of the corner of her eye if she wanted to. He did not trust the woman to trust him. And he did not trust the woman not to trust him. And he didn’t want anyone to doubt him now.
“Do you need somebody to go to the store,” asked the boy, maybe to get some milk or something ”
“Don’t believe I do,” said the woman, “unless you just want sweet milk yourself. I’m going to make chocolate milk.”
“That will be fine,” said the boy.
Mrs. Jones heated some cooked food she had in the fridge and set the table. She didn’t ask the boy anything about where he lived, or his parents, or anything else that would embarrass him. Instead, as they ate, she told him about her job in a hotel beauty shop that stayed open late, what the work was like, and how all kinds of women came in and out. Then she cut him half of her cake. “Eat some more, son” she said.
When they finished eating, Mrs. Jones got up and said, “Now, here, take this ten dollars and buy yourself some blue suede shoes. And, next time, do not make the mistake of stealing my bag nor nobody else’s —because shoes got in this way will burn your feet. I’ve got to get my rest now. But, son, I hope you will behave yourself from now on.
The woman led the way down the hall to the front door and opened it. “Good night! Behave yourself, boy!” she said, looking into the street as he went down the steps.
The boy wanted to say something other than “Thank you, ma’am” to Mrs. Jones, but although his mouth moved, he couldn’t even say that, as he turned at the front of the steps and looked up at the large woman in the door. Then Mrs. Jones shut the door. And the boy never saw her again.

Some people decide to stop eating meat and begin to accept a vegan ( 素食) diet because of health reasons. This way of eating avoids all animal products, including meat, fish, milk, eggs and even honey.
Making the change can be a challenge for people who often have dairy and meat in their diet, according to Dena Champion, a dietitian, an expert on diet and nutrition (营养学), from Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. She added that starting a vegan diet could change your body in certain ways. It might even offer some health benefits.
Reduced body weight
Instead of high-fat proteins like bacon and beef, vegans get their protein from plant-based sources such as tofu, beans, soy milk, and so on. “This can lead to losing weight. Considering that two-thirds of Americans are overweight, this can have a positive effect on body shape and health”, says Kailey Proctor, a dietitian at St. Joseph Hospital in California.
Improved blood sugar control
Because being overweight is a major risk for developing diabetes (糖尿病), losing weight can lower that risk. There was one study from some experts published in the magazine Nutrients in 2018. The experts chose some overweight people with no history of diabetes to switch to a vegan diet. Then they followed them for 16 weeks. Improvements and better effects are seen in those people in controlling blood sugar levels.
Reduced cancer risk
There’s also the chance to reduce your risk of developing cancer. “Vegan diets, when planned correctly, are also very high in fruits, vegetables and whole grains. These plant-based foods have been shown to reduce the risk
of cancer.”says Proctor. We should always focus on consuming whole, fresh foods as much as possible. It’s important to make sure you’re getting enough nutrients for your health.
16 .Which one belongs to a vegan diet
A .Meat, fish, milk. B .Eggs,honey, soy milk.
C .Tofu,beans, milk. D .Tofu,beans, soy milk.
17 .What does the underlined word “This” probably refer to
A .The foods that contain high-fat proteins.
B .The way that the vegans get their protein.
C .The fact that two-thirds of Americans are overweight.
D .The diet that may have a bad effect on people’s bodies.
18 .What is Paragraph 4 mainly about (Subheadings are not paragraphs)
A .The reason for losing weight.
B .The reason for being diabetes.
C .A study of getting too much weight.
D .A study of controlling blood sugar.
19 .What’s the structure of the article (P=Paragraph)
C
A .
B .
C .
D .
20 .Which of the following is the best title for the article
A .How to reduce body weight

Do dragons exist today Although often mistaken for a mythical(神话的)creature, we actually live among several different types of “dragons.” For example, you may have seen dragonfly flying over a summer garden or read about a Komodo dragon lizard. The ocean has its share of dragons, too.
The blue dragon is a marine(海洋的)snail without a shell. It is commonly known as a blue sea slug(海 参). This particular species of marine snail can swallow a bubble of air(which it holds in its stomach)that enables it to float upside down on the surface of the ocean. The underside of the slug is blue, and it back is a gray color. This helps to conceal it from birds flying overhead and from fish swimming below.
Blue dragons feed on poisonous jellyfish and other similar species. When food is in short supply, they will eat each other. They collect toxins(毒素)from the jellyfish and store it in many finger-like structures. This ability to store poison gives them a much stronger sting (刺 )than the jellyfish itself. They use this poison as a defense against enemies. The sting can also be felt by people.
These creatures are rarely visible for study and observation except for when they come close to land during times of onshore winds. They have been seen in Hawaii and in tropical(热带)waters around the world. Beware (当心)of the blue dragon’s sting!
21 .What’s the purpose of the first paragraph
A .It gives details about the topic.
B .It introduces the subject.
C .It introduces the author.
D .It gives examples of mythical monsters.
22 .What does the underlined word “conceal” in the second paragraph mean
A .Discover. B .Notice. C .Protect. D .Hide.
23 .How does the coloring of the blue sea slug provide protection
A .It floats right side up so the blue faces down in the water.
B .Its gray coloring makes it look the same as ocean waves.
C .Its blue underside and its gray back help it not be seen from above and below.
D .It gives off blue poison into the water to protect it from enemies.
24 .What’s the blue dragon’s main defense against enemies
A .It floats upside down in the water.
B .It stores poison and stings enemies. C .It feeds on poisonous jellyfish.
D .It moves to coastal waters during times of onshore winds.
25 .Which of the following facts about the animal is true according to the passage
A .The animal has the word “dragon” as part of its name because it is a mythical creature.
B .We can only see types of “dragons” in oceans.
C .A bubble of water in its stomach enables it to float upside down.
D .The creature are not commonly seen by people for study and observation.
三、阅读还原(共 5 小题,每小题 1 分,满分 5 分)
Have you ever wondered why the letters on a keyboard are not in “ABC” order
The keyboard we use every day is called the QWERTY keyboard layout(布局). Q, W, E, R, T, Y are the first six letters on this layout, starting from the top left. 26
The first manual typewriter(手动打字机), with a keyboard which looked like a piano, was invented in the late 19th century. 27 However, it was later discovered that as the typing speed increased, some keys failed to come back to their places quickly. As a result, they got jammed( 卡住) very easily. 28 To solve this problem, the QWERTY keyboard was developed. It placed keys in such a way that the most used letters were spaced out so that the keys were more likely to work freely.
29 With the arrival of the computer, the typists in offices were the same people who were to now operate computers. This meant the typists had to be trained to use the new device(设备). 30 It was easier to design the keyboards following the layout of typewriters, which was the QWERTY layout, and this continues even today.
A .But training required too much time and money.
B .However, another problem came about in the 1940s. C .These typewriters did have the ABC keyboard layout.
D .Here are some tips to help you get used to the QWERTY keyboard.
E .To understand why we went with QWERTY, we need to go back in history.
F .Most typists ended up breaking the typewriter altogether when separating the keys.

Considering that two-thirds of Americans are overweight, this can have a positive effect on body shape and health”, says Kailey Proctor, a dietitian at St. Joseph Hospital in California.
Improved blood sugar control
Because being overweight is a major risk for developing diabetes (糖尿病), losing weight can lower that risk. There was one study from some experts published in the magazine Nutrients in 2018. The experts chose some overweight people with no history of diabetes to switch to a vegan diet. Then they followed them for 16 weeks. Improvements and better effects are seen in those people in controlling blood sugar levels.
Reduced cancer risk
There’s also the chance to reduce your risk of developing cancer. “Vegan diets, when planned correctly, are also very high in fruits, vegetables and whole grains. These plant-based foods have been shown to reduce the risk of cancer.”says Proctor. We should always focus on consuming whole, fresh foods as much as possible. It’s important to make sure you’re getting enough nutrients for your health.

Do dragons exist today Although often mistaken for a mythical(神话的)creature, we actually live among several different types of “dragons.” For example, you may have seen dragonfly flying over a summer garden or read about a Komodo dragon lizard. The ocean has its share of dragons, too.
The blue dragon is a marine(海洋的)snail without a shell. It is commonly known as a blue sea slug(海 参). This particular species of marine snail can swallow a bubble of air(which it holds in its stomach)that enables it to float upside down on the surface of the ocean. The underside of the slug is blue, and it back is a gray color. This helps to conceal it from birds flying overhead and from fish swimming below.
Blue dragons feed on poisonous jellyfish and other similar species. When food is in short supply, they will eat each other. They collect toxins(毒素)from the jellyfish and store it in many finger-like structures. This ability to store poison gives them a much stronger sting (刺 )than the jellyfish itself. They use this poison as a defense against enemies. The sting can also be felt by people.
These creatures are rarely visible for study and observation except for when they come close to land during times of onshore winds. They have been seen in Hawaii and in tropical(热带)waters around the world. Beware (当心)of the blue dragon’s sting!
21 .What’s the purpose of the first paragraph
A .It gives details about the topic.
B .It introduces the subject.
C .It introduces the author.
D .It gives examples of mythical monsters.
22 .What does the underlined word “conceal” in the second paragraph mean
A .Discover. B .Notice. C .Protect. D .Hide.
23 .How does the coloring of the blue sea slug provide protection
A .It floats right side up so the blue faces down in the water.
B .Its gray coloring makes it look the same as ocean waves.
C .Its blue underside and its gray back help it not be seen from above and below.
D .It gives off blue poison into the water to protect it from enemies.
24 .What’s the blue dragon’s main defense against enemies
A .It floats upside down in the water.
B .It stores poison and stings enemies. C .It feeds on poisonous jellyfish.
D .It moves to coastal waters during times of onshore winds.
25 .Which of the following facts about the animal is true according to the passage
A .The animal has the word “dragon” as part of its name because it is a mythical creature.
B .We can only see types of “dragons” in oceans.
C .A bubble of water in its stomach enables it to float upside down.

三、阅读还原(共 5 小题,每小题 1 分,满分 5 分)
Have you ever wondered why the letters on a keyboard are not in “ABC” order
The keyboard we use every day is called the QWERTY keyboard layout(布局). Q, W, E, R, T, Y are the first six letters on this layout, starting from the top left. 26
The first manual typewriter(手动打字机), with a keyboard which looked like a piano, was invented in the late 19th century. 27 However, it was later discovered that as the typing speed increased, some keys failed to come back to their places quickly. As a result, they got jammed( 卡住) very easily. 28 To solve this
problem, the QWERTY keyboard was developed. It placed keys in such a way that the most used letters were spaced out so that the keys were more likely to work freely.
29 With the arrival of the computer, the typists in offices were the same people who were to now operate computers. This meant the typists had to be trained to use the new device(设备). 30 It was easier to design the keyboards following the layout of typewriters, which was the QWERTY layout, and this continues even today.
A .But training required too much time and money.
B .However, another problem came about in the 1940s. C .These typewriters did have the ABC keyboard layout.
D .Here are some tips to help you get used to the QWERTY keyboard.
E .To understand why we went with QWERTY, we need to go back in history.
F .Most typists ended up breaking the typewriter altogether when separating the keys.

In the end, they worked out the 24 Solar Terms 41 (mark) the changes.
The terms became their guide to farming work. For example, the solar term Jingzhe is when insects wake up from a long sleep in cold winter. Farmers take it as a sign of warm weather and get busy 42 (work).
