Elizabeth looked down. “Is it from Harvard? They refused my application once.” Emily answered, “No, its from Yale.” Quickly, Elizabeth walked downstairs. She took the letter and opened it. “Rejected again,” Elizabeth said unhappily. “Who says women cant be doctors?”“They are fools not to accept you. You cant let them stop you, Lizzie,” Emily said.“I wont. Ill apply to (申请) Geneva Medical College,” Elizabeth told her sister. As it turned out, the professors at Geneva Medical College were not fools. They allowed Elizabeth Blackwell to study medicine.In 1848, a year before Elizabeth would graduate, a typhoid epidemic (伤寒流行病) broke out in New York. Elizabeth wrote to Emily. “Theres an outbreak (爆发) of typhoid, and I am going to help. It is dangerous, so if I should not survive, please do me the honor of studying medicine yourself.”Emily replied, “Encouraged by your dream and success, I have decided to study in medical school, as well.”Having survived the disease, Elizabeth tried to set up a private medical practice. “I graduated first in my class but no one believes a woman can be a good doctor,” she said to Emily one day. “All I hear is that doctors should be men, while women should stay home to cook and clean.”Emily said worriedly, “I will graduate in June with my medical degree. What shall we do?” Elizabeth thought for a while and replied, “Theres a big house in the poor part of our town. We can practice medicine there for people who couldnt afford care.”Soon with the help of some friends, Elizabeth and Emily bought the house and opened a hospital for poor women and children. “Well have an all-women staff (员工),” Elizabeth said. “And later, well add a medical college for women!” Emily added. At last, Elizabeth realized her dream of being a doctor.21. The underlined word “Rejected” in the first paragraph can be best replaced by _.A. Refused B. Praised C. Changed D. Accepted22. In 1848, Elizabeth wrote to Emily to _.A. persuade Emily to come to help the sick B. ask Emily to study medicine if she diedC. warn Emily the danger of typhoid epidemic D. tell Emily she would graduate from college23. We can learn from the text that Elizabeth _.A. received strong support from her sister B. refused to go to study at Yale UniversityC. founded a medical college after graduation D. was finally accepted by Harvard after her effortsBCATVCATV is a short way saying “community antenna (公用天线) television”. But “cable television” is the name most people use. Cable television allows viewers(观众) to receive TV programs that they can not pick up with their ordinary antenna.Television signals (信号) do not follow the curve(曲线) of the earth. They travel in straight lines in all directions. Signals from a TV station move towards the horizon(水平线) and then go into space. If you live only a few miles from a TV station, you may get a good picture on your set. But if you live more than 50 miles from a station, you may not get any pictured at all.CATV began in 1948. People in places far from TV stations had to pay for putting up high antennas. A community antenna was usually placed on a hill, a mountain or on a high tower. The antenna picked up TV signals and fed them into a small local(当地的) station. From the station, thick wires called cable ran out to nearby homes. Each person using the cable paid a monthly charge(费用).CATV worked well, and soon new uses were found for it. Local stations could feed programs into empty channels that were not in use. People along the cable could have local news, weather report, and farm and school news at no extra charge.Toddy, cable television has moved into cities. It brings in extra programs that city viewers with ordinary antenna can not see. It is also used in many classrooms throughout the country.24. From the first paragraph we know that _.A. most people use cable televisionB. “community antenna” is used for cable televisionC. a community antenna is used for cable televisionD. an ordinary antenna can not pick up TV programs25. Of the following, which is not the way TV signals travel?A. In a curve. B. In a straight line. C. In all directions. D. Towards the horizon.26. On the whole, this passage is about _.A. how to put up high antennas B. a way of picking up better TV programsC. how to use the empty channels on your TV set D. the way that TV signals are sent27. From the passage we can infer (推测) that _.A. TV has begun to be used for educational purpose(目的)B. viewers can receive more TV programs with their ordinary antennasC. cable TV can not be used in small townsD. antennas for cable TV are usually put up in the center of a communityCVolunteering is one of the major wealth of any American city or town. People get together to help others less fortunate than themselves, or victims of a natural or man-made disaster. Since the start of our country this has been one of the noticeable features of our society.Beginning in the Colonial Period and continuing down to today our countrys history is full of examples of people helping each other. Requiring high school students to take part in voluntary community service projects introduces them to this important part of our society. And while many students complain about this program at first, a large number of them find great individual(个人的) satisfaction when they look back at the things they achieved.Our son, who graduated in 2020, found that he enjoyed the time he spent with primary school students helping them with their reading. In some ways he became a hero to the young boys and girls he was spending time with, simply because he was a high school student and took the time to get to know them. By the end of his first year in the program he was looking forward to the next school year and a new group of kids. It was particularly satisfying when a child he had helped saw him some place in the community and remembered him.Having high school students take part in required community service activities helps give them an important sense of belonging to the adult world. It also gives them first-hand experience in activities and situations they might not otherwise experience. And it shows them that they can make a valuable contribution towards the society with just a little effort and a few hours of their time.28. What kind of feeling is expressed in Paragraph 1?A. Surprise B. Doubt C. Concern D. Pride29. What do we know about the authors son?A. He has been a volunteer for about one year.B. He won much respect for his voluntary work.C. He hoped the children he helped would remember him.D. He felt pleased when he was recognized by other volunteers.30. In paragraph 4, the author mainly discusses .A. the benefits of required volunteeringB. the importance of first-hand experienceC. the requirements for being a volunteerD. the responsibility of contributing to society第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。“Three Apples” changed the world.

Many years ago, people 57 （think） that if we went to bed early and got up early, we would be energetic the whole day. So, getting up early is of great 58 (important) to us all.In fact, in the morning, the air is the freshest and people are usually in the best condition. And it is certain that we find it easier 59 (understand) what we learn in the morning. If we get up early and do some morning exercise or only take a short walk in the morning, without doubt we can build up our bodies and become much 60 (healthy). Also we will have enough time to make a plan and get ready for our work or study of the day if we get up early. For example, if everyone in the family gets up early, 61 (wife) will have enough time to prepare the breakfast for the whole family; children will have enough time to catch the school bus, and husbands will never forget to change 62 (they) dirty shirt. Everything will be in order However, if we get up late, well probably have to do everything in 63 hurry.Let us remember getting up early is a good habit and try our best to keep it. 64 we stick to 65 (get) up early every day, we will certainly benefit a lot from it第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分）第一节 应用文写作（满分15分）假设你叫李华，昨天收到了笔友David的e-mail，得知他不久要到北京来学习中文。他想了解如何学好中文。请你用英文给他回复一封e-mail，介绍学习中文的体会和方法，提出你的建议，以及表达你帮助他学好中文的愿望。DearDavid,Yours,Li Hua第二节读后续写（满分25分）阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。A man came home from work late, tired and irritated(不耐烦的), to find his 5-year-old son waiting for him at the door.“Daddy, may I ask you a question?”“Yeah sure, what is it?” replied the man.“Daddy, how much do you make an hour?”“Thats none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?” the man said angrily.“I just want to know. Please tell me. How much do you make an hour?” pleaded the little boy.“If you must know, I make $20 an hour.”“Oh,” the little boy replied, with his head down. Looking up, he said, “Daddy, may I please borrow $10?”The father was angry, “If the only reason you asked that is that you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish（自私的）. I work hard every day for such childish behavior.” The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boys questions. “How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?” he thought to himself. After about an hour or so, the man calmed down, and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10 and he really didnt ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boys room and opened the door. “Are you asleep, son?” he asked.“No, daddy, Im awake,” replied the boy.“Ive been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier,” said the man. “It has been a long day and I took out my anger on you.
