Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years?Jane Addams (1860-1935)Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community(社区) by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became the first American women to win the Nobel Peace Prize.Rachel Carson (1907-1964)If it werent for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exit today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers f pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the worlds lakes and oceans.Sandra Day OConnor(1930-present)When Sandra Day OConnor finished third in her class at Standford Law School in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona State Senator(参议员) and in 1981, the first woman to join the US Supreme Court（高等法院）.

Her simple act landed Parks in prison, But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off the civil-rights movements.“the only tired I was, was tired of giving in.” said Parks.21.

What can we infer about the women mentioned in the text?A They are highly educated B They are truly creativeC They are pioneers D They are peace-loversBWhen a leafy plant is under attack, it doesnt sit quietly. Back in 1983, two scientists Jack Schultz and lan Baldwin reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm. What the plants pump（排出) through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds (化合物) , VOCs for short.Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked. Its a plants way of crying out. But is anyone listening? Apparently. Because we can watch the neighbors react.Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away. But others do double duty. They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers. Once they arrived , the tables are turned. The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.In study after study, it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors. The damage is usually more serious on the first plant, but the neighbors, relatively speaking, stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.Does this mean that plants talk to each other? Scientists dont know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to overhear the cry. So information was exchanged. but it wasnt a true, intentional back and forth.Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate(亲密的)than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. Theres a lot going on.25. What does a plant do when it is under attack?A. It makes noises B. It gets help from other plantsC. It stands quietly D. It sends out certain chemicals26. What does the author mean by the tables are turned in Paragraph 3?A. The attackers get attacked B. The insects gather under the tableC. The plants get ready to fight back D. The perfumes attract natural enemies27. Scientists find from their studies that plants can_A. predict natural disasters B. protect themselves against insectsC. talk to one another intentionally D. help their neighbors when necessary28. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The world is changing faster than everB. People have stronger senses than beforeC. The world is more complex than it seemsD. People in Darwins time were more Imaginative.CEvery time you go shopping, the vegetables and fruit look so tempting(诱人) that you wish you could buy all of them. Some people are lucky and can grow the fruit and vegetables in the gardens that they have. While getting fresh vegetables, they can also achieve great cost cutting.Mushrooms are expensive and can also go bad very quickly. Mushrooms can also be grown easily in a dark environment. In fact its better than growing other vegetables since you really dont need an outdoor space. A special type of soil that is good for growing mushrooms is easily available.Actually mushrooms arent even vegetables; they are fungi(菌类) and for this reason, you dont even require sunlight to grow them. Well how does one go about growing mushrooms? You could always Google“growing mushrooms” and you will find a number of mushroom growing kits(工具) available online that are effective and not very expensive either.Mushrooms can be added to any dish that you cook. Simply use them in pizzas, salads and anything that you pretty much fancy(想像). Grow mushrooms in your own house and use them whenever you want. Fresh mushrooms are tastier than the ones that are stored in your refrigerator.If you have had a really good crop of mushrooms, then you can even store them. Ideally you should use the white variety of the mushrooms. Simply pick them, slice them and put them on a cookie sheet in a freezer. When they are frozen, you can use them when you want to. Remember to thaw(解冻) them before you use them, and they will give a really great taste to the dish that you are making.29What can we know about growing mushrooms?AIt takes much attention BIt needs lots of sunshineCThe soil can be got easily DThe environment is demanding30What is the authors attitude towards growing vegetables in gardens?ADoubtful B. Supportive C. Objective D. Disapproving31What could be the best title for the text?A. Simple to Cook Mushroom PizzasBFun and Easy to Grow MushroomsCExpensive to Buy Mushrooms OnlineDImportant to Eat Fruit and VegetablesDAs usual, famous literary periodical Shuowenjiezi released this years top 10 Chinese hot words earlier this month. Among the 10 words most frequently mentioned in the media and on the internet, ju ying (means a giant baby but more precisely a grown-up baby) has triggered heated discussions among the public due to a series of incidents in 2020, and also because it is not a new term. The term ju ying was first used by consulting psychologist Wu Zhihong in 2020, who has authored a book in which he describes and analyzes the irresponsible and immature (rather child-like) behaviors of Chinese adultsthat is, physically grownup but mentally immature people. Later, media outlets and netizens(网民) extensively used the term to describe a type of peoplewho are not only unreasonable but also rude and annoying in social life. These people are always self-centered and selfish, lack social consciousness and have a disregard for rules. They always try to use every possible means to achieve their own goal violating（违反) even the basic social rules and ignoring other peoples feelings and concerns. And if they cannot meet their demand, they suddenly lose their temper and use aggressive means to achieve their goal.Grown-up babies have come in for much more criticism(批评) this year, after a few of them caused several serious incidents. In August a video showed a man occupying another passengers seat by the window in a high-speed train from Jinan, Shandong province, to Beijing and shamelessly refusing to shift to his allotted seat. Another grown-up baby was responsible for a far worse incident, a fatal bus accident, in Chongqing on Oct 28. A woman passenger, angry at not being able to get off the bus at her destination stop, fought with the driver forcing him to lose control of the vehicle and plunging into(坠入) the Yangtze River. Fifteen people lost their lives in the accident. From unpleasant experiences in social life to disastrous accidents, people began reflecting on why there were so many grownup babies in our society. Some said the grown-up baby syndrome has something to do with parenting, and attributed the prevalence of the phenomenon to Chinas one-child family structure. This view supposes that an only child attracts all the attention and care from the family members and always gets whatever it wants. As a result, such children remain unruly(不守规矩的) and become less responsible after growing up.But the spoiled child hypothesis(假设) may not hold much water, as not all grown-up babies are the only child of their parents. Instead, adults who behave like stubborn children are almost always middle-aged people or senior citizens, who are very likely to have siblings(兄弟姐妹) and thus might not have been spoiled by their parents when they were kids. Some netizens have even made fun of such people saying they are essentially bad guys growing old.Yet the social anger directed at grown-up babies reflects the improvement in Chinese peoples moral values, and peoples increasing awareness of the importance of following the regulations and laws. This year marks the 40th anniversary of reform and opening-up, and one of the most valuable lessons we have learned in the past four decades is to respect rules. I am optimistic that the hot word of the year will gradually become history as the rule of law is strengthened in China.32What does the underlined word mean?A started B. developed C. improved D. found33What are Grown-up babies like ?A unreasonable B selfless C ruly D mentally mature34What is the authors tone (语调) of writing ?A sad B negative C pessimistic D positive 35What is the passage mainly about?A Social rules in China B Chinese Giant babiesC Word of the Year D A fatal bus accident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。Friendship is a wonderful thing to have no matter how old you are.
