D.contributingtothenewsletter.【答案】21.D22.C23.B【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍“课堂使用新闻”周刊的内容构成、使用方法及订阅方式，为特定用户提供教学辅助参考。【21题详析】推理判断题。根据第一段中的“We’rehappytointroduceNewsforClassroomUse:aweeklynewsletterwithapieceofnewsandactivitiesbasedonitwhichyoucanuseasawarm-up,afillerorawrap-uptask.(我们很高兴介绍《课堂使用新闻》：这是一份周刊，包含一则新闻及基于该新闻的活动，你可将其用作热身、过渡或收尾任务。)”以及INTRO部分中的“Youmightneedtoreaditouttostudentsoritmayalsoserveasareferencepointtoyou,dependingontheactivitiesthatgowiththeparticularpieceofnews.(根据这则特定新闻配套的活动安排，你或许需要向学生宣读它，或者它也可能成为你的参考依据。)”以及ACTIVITY部分中的“Youmightneedtoreaditouttostudentsoritmayalsoserveasareferencepointtoyou,dependingontheactivitiesthatgowiththeparticularpieceofnews.(你或许需要把它读给学生听，或者它也可能成为你的参考依据——具体如何使用，取决于与这则特定新闻搭配的活动是什么。)”可知，文中多次出现“你的学生”、“教学”等与教师相关的表述，由此可推断，该文本的目标读者是教师。故选D项。【22题详析】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Thestoriescoveredinthenewsletterrangefrombreakingnewstomoreevergreencontentwhichyouwillbeabletogobacktoaccordingtoyourstudents’needs.(该周刊涵盖的新闻故事从突发新闻到长期适用的内容不等，你可根据学生需求反复使用这些内容。)”可知，周刊包含可反复使用的内容，即提供可重复利用的阅读材料。故选C项。【23题详析】细节理解题。根据ACTIVITY部分中的“Ifyouteachlower-levelstudents,usetheeasierquestionsorjustaskstudentstosaywhattheythinkaboutthenews.(如果您教授水平较低的学生（初学者），可以使用较简单的问题，或者直接让学生说出他们对这则新闻的看法。)”可知，向初学者推荐的活动是让他们表达自己的观点。故选B项。BMyparentshaveabigcatathomenamedComet.Hehasbigears,alargehead,hugefeet,andagentlepersonality—butwehavenowayofknowingforsure.Hecamefromthelocalanimalshelter.MybrotherandIdidn’treallywanthim,sincehewasakittenandwewantedtoadoptanadultcatbecausewethoughtthekittenswouldbemorelikelytofindanotherhome,butmylittlesisterinsisted.WebroughtComethomethatday.Hesoonfellillandgrewalarminglyweak—hisribsstuckout,hiseyesswelled,andhisfurdulled.HebecamesofragilethatIfearedtouchinghim,thoughheclearlyneededcare.Someyearslater,Iwenthomeoneafternoonafterhavinghadanemotionalbreakdown.Mywholelifewasupsidedown.Ifelthollow,dead,anemptyshellofaperson.Ihadnoideawhatpieceswereevenworthpickingupagain.IfoundCometcurledupinacornerthatafternoon.He’dbeenasleep,butheliftedhisheadandlookedatmewhenIcamein.Ireachedahandtowardhim.Henuzzledit,immediatelyburstintoadeep,loudpurr,andgavemeaperfectlycontentcatgrin.Imovedmyhanddowntoscratchhisbackandsides,andhestretchedluxuriously,givingmelooksofabsoluteadoration.Atthatpoint,ithitme:thiscatlovedme.ThecatIdidn’twant,thecatIcouldn’tbeartotakecareofwhenhislifedependedonit,lovedme.Andhewouldalwaysloveme.Nomatterwhatwasgoingoninmylife,CometwouldstilllookupfromanapwhenIenteredtheroom,wouldstilllovetobetouchedbyme.Ibelieveloveissteadfast.Ibelievethatreallove,whetheritcomesfromyourfamilies,orasheltercat,isoffereddeterminedlyandunconditionally.Loveiswhatenablesustopickupthepiecesofourbrokenlivesandgoon.24.WhywasthewriterunwillingtoadoptCometinitially?A.Hethoughtadultcatsweremoregentle.
