As Ginni Bazlinton
reached Antarctica, she found herself greeted by a group of little Gentoo
penguins(企鹅)longing to say hello.
These gentle, lovely gatekeepers welcomed her and kick-started what was to be a
trip Ginni would never forget.
Ever since her
childhood, Ginni, now 71, has had a deep love for travel. Throughout her career(职业)as a professional dancer, she toured in the UK, but always longed to
explore further When she retired from dancing and her sons eventually flew the
nest, she decided it was time to take the plunge.
After taking a degree
at Chichester University in Related Arts, Ginni began to travel the world,
eventually getting work teaching English in Japan and Chile. And it was in
Chile she discovered she could get last-minute cheap deals on ships going to
Antarctica from the islands off Tierra del Fuego, the southernmost tip of the
South American mainland. "I just decided wanted to go," she says.
"I had no idea about what I'd find there and I wasn't nervous, I just
wanted to do it. And I wanted to do it alone as I always prefer it that
way."
In March 2008, Ginni
boarded a ship with 48 passengers she'd never met before, to begin the journey
towards Antarctica. "From seeing the wildlife to witnessing sunrises, the
whole experience was amazing. Antarctica left an impression on me that no other
place has," Ginni says. "I remember the first time I saw a humpback
whale; it just rose out of the water like some prehistoric creature and I
thought it was smiling at us. You could still hear the operatic sounds it was making
underwater."
The realization that
this is a precious land, to be respected by humans, was one of the biggest
things that hit home to Ginni.

Growing up in rural Jiangsu
Province, Yu Jigao showed a strong interest in fine arts at an early age and
studied on his own for years. His hard work paid off later. In the early 1950s,
he made his way to Nanjing Normal University, where he learned painting
theories and techniques from some famous artists. It was then that Yu found his
lifelong artistic zeal for gongbi.
Gongbi paintings usually describe
birds and flowers, symbols of beauty and joy, in an artistic way with intense

and New York. Both the themes and artistic techniques have won widespread

rules, he uses accurate lines, powerful brush movements as well as the
interplay between dark and light to represent the harmony of nature. Though he
adopts a realistic style, he tries to enrich his works with spiritual beauty
through his brush. Yu says, "That feeling turns into the images of singing
birds and elegant flowers in my paintings." Thanks to his careful
observation of nature and artistic sensitivity, Yu is able to combine realistic
description with artistic expression in his brushwork.
Now as deputy director of
the Academy of Chinese Gongbi Painting of Flowers and Birds and a national
top-level artist, Yu maintains a simple and easy-going style. In addition to
artistic creation, Yu has devoted himself to promoting his painting style as
the cultural heritage of China. "Art is part of my life," Yu says. "I

If you tried to give rock 'n' roll another name, you might have called it Chuck Berry.
Chuck Berry was 29 years old in 1955. He'd been playing mostly blues and R&. B standards in a St. Louis club for several years. But he had started writing his own songs, combining elements of white country music. On a Friday night in May, 1955, he drove up to Chicago to catch a show by the blues great Muddy Waters. After the performance, he casually asked him," How do you get in touch with a record company "
"Why don't you go and see Leonard Chess on 47th "Muddy Waters replied.
So early Monday morning, Berry went to Chess Records and positioned himself in a store across the street. When Leonard Chess arrived, Berry ran over and made a pitch. Chess was impressed by the young man's self-confidence and told him to comeback with a tape of his own material.
Berry returned the following week, bringing with him the other members of the club and four new songs. "And we set the band up, and we played all four of them, " Berry said. "We don't know what they were saying, but they listened."
Berry thought they were listening to "Wee Wee Hours", a blues song. After all, Chess Records was known around Chicago as a blues label(商标). But Leonard Chess was fascinated by "Ida Mae" that Berry had adapted from a traditional country tune called" Ida Red".
Chess was sure the new song could be a hit,but he didn't like the name. It was too rural(土气的). But nobody could think of a name. They looked around and saw a shoe box with Maybellene printed on it. Leonard Chess said," Why don't we name it' Maybellene' "
"Maybellene" quickly rose to No. 1 on the R&. B chart. Two weeks later, it hit No. 5 on the all-important pop chart.
In the years following" Maybellene", Chuck Berry produced an astonishing string of hits, such as "Roll Over Beethoven"" School Days" and" Sweet Little Sixteen".
In 1972, Chuck Berry finally scored a number-one hit on the pop chart with an even more rural name:" My Ding-A-Ling".
17.Why did Chuck Berry go to Chicago on the Friday night in May, 1955
A.To sell his first record. B.To find a record company.
C.To watch a performance. D.To interview Muddy Waters.
18.What does the underlined word" pitch"in paragraph 4 mean

C.Invitation. D.Self-introduction.
19.How did Leonard Chess get the name" Maybellene" for the song
A.He was inspired by the sweet music.
B.He accidentally saw a shoe label.
C.It was recommended by an ad agency.
D.It was the result of thorough research.
20.What can be inferred from the text
A.The name of a song is not so important.
B."Wee Wee Hours" is a typical rock song.
C."Ida Mae" is much better than" Ida Red".
D."My Ding-A-Ling" is not good enough.

Facebook chief operating officer Sheryl
Sandberg and Anna Maria Chavez, chief of American Girl
Scouts, are leading a campaign
to discourage the use of the word "bossy". Does the term destroy
the confidence of young girls
The campaign claims
that terms like "bossy" are improperly applied to females, preventing schoolgirls
from seeing themselves as future "leaders". From its first application, the word has been definitely
connected more with women than with men. It first appeared in
1882, according to the Oxford
English Dictionary, mentioning "a
lady manager who was extremely bossy". As late as 2008, the word appeared in
reference to females four times more often than males, claim the Ban Bossy
campaigners. "To me, the reference is always
in association with women," says Helen Trim, director of Fresh Minds. "I have three
brothers and my family still call me 'bossy' today." Her father is
the only other family member who could be considered in that way, says Trim, but nobody would ever
call him so.
Some educators recommend
that the word should be reclaimed, rather than banned. "But the thing
with 'bossy' is that there's
an infantile (幼稚的) element to it", says Sara Mills, professor at Sheffield
University. "You think of
'bossy' as being like
a little kid who's claiming more than he has the right to claim."
It's not just "bossy"
under fire. "Pushy" is
another target. The implication is
that women shouldn't present themselves as powerful and confident, Mills suggests, which some women are
willing to listen to and accept. Trim points out that
many modern female business role models are able to be bosses without being labeled
"bossy". And she rarely, if ever, hears the word used
within her company. But she says that the
damage may be done much earlier in a woman's life. "It does come
about from those early teenage years." she says. "I think it's
impossible to ban a word, but if people are replacing
it with words like 'confidence' or 'assertiveness', we would all be in
a much better place."
21.More evidence is provided to show "bossy" is more applied to females by ______.
A.the Oxford English Dictionary B.the Ban Bossy campaigners
C.Helen Trim at Fresh Minds D.some experts in education
22.Trim's family still consider her bossy because ______.
A.she is expected to lead in her family
B.she is the boss of her company
C.she is a powerful and confident female
D.her father considers her that way
23.The underlined part "under fire" most probably means ______.
A.definitely replaced B.strongly criticized
C.improperly applied D.eagerly expected
24.How does the author sound when referring to the campaign against "bossy"
A.Objective. B.Angry. C.Doubtful. D.Optimistic.

As Ginni Bazlinton
reached Antarctica, she found herself greeted by a group of little Gentoo
penguins(企鹅)longing to say hello.
These gentle, lovely gatekeepers welcomed her and kick-started what was to be a
trip Ginni would never forget.
Ever since her
childhood, Ginni, now 71, has had a deep love for travel. Throughout her career(职业)as a professional dancer, she toured in the UK, but always longed to
explore further When she retired from dancing and her sons eventually flew the
nest, she decided it was time to take the plunge.
After taking a degree
at Chichester University in Related Arts, Ginni began to travel the world,
eventually getting work teaching English in Japan and Chile. And it was in
Chile she discovered she could get last-minute cheap deals on ships going to
Antarctica from the islands off Tierra del Fuego, the southernmost tip of the
South American mainland. "I just decided wanted to go," she says.
"I had no idea about what I'd find there and I wasn't nervous, I just
wanted to do it. And I wanted to do it alone as I always prefer it that
way."
In March 2008, Ginni
boarded a ship with 48 passengers she'd never met before, to begin the journey
towards Antarctica. "From seeing the wildlife to witnessing sunrises, the
whole experience was amazing. Antarctica left an impression on me that no other
place has," Ginni says. "I remember the first time I saw a humpback
whale; it just rose out of the water like some prehistoric creature and I
thought it was smiling at us. You could still hear the operatic sounds it was making
underwater."
The realization that
this is a precious land, to be respected by humans, was one of the biggest
things that hit home to Ginni.
1.Which of the following best explains "take the plunge" underlined in paragraph 2

Student from Taiwan played a key role in safeguarding his
community in Beijing during pandemic outbreak and is working to establish
closer ties between young people across the Straits.
Chen Wencheng from Taiwan, a postdoctoral student at
Peking University, had been doing volunteer work in his neighborhood since
Spring Festival. This was the first Lunar New Year holiday he didn't celebrate
in his hometown of Zhanghua, Taiwan, during his nine-year stay in Beijing.
Chen, 31, from the university's department of philosophy
and religious studies, chose to stay in Beijing's Haidian District with his
pregnant wife, who gave birth to their daughter last month. After the COVID- 19
outbreak hit Beijing in late January, he soon applied to be a community
volunteer to help with pandemic prevention and control.
He started work on the day he signed as a volunteer on
Feb4, with his duties including such tasks as checking passes and the
temperature of people entering the community or delivering food and other
necessities to his neighbors in self-quarantine.
The buildings in the community have five floors with no
elevators. Chen sometimes had dozens of deliveries each day, including big rice
bags and barrels of cooking oil, among other daily supplies.
"Those were heavy, and that's why the
community needed us younger people to help, "Chen says.
"The volunteer job looks like petty work, but it
matters as it enhances the safety of the more than 2, 000 residents in our
community, "Chen says. "The work also allowed me to get to know more
of my neighbors, which makes the whole community feel like a big family. "

Growing up in rural Jiangsu
Province, Yu Jigao showed a strong interest in fine arts at an early age and
studied on his own for years. His hard work paid off later. In the early 1950s,
he made his way to Nanjing Normal University, where he learned painting
theories and techniques from some famous artists. It was then that Yu found his
lifelong artistic zeal for gongbi.
Gongbi paintings usually describe
birds and flowers, symbols of beauty and joy, in an artistic way with intense
color.
After graduation from the
art school in 1957, Yu began his professional career at the Chinese Painting
Institute of Jiangsu. He has since published a series of art collections. Since
1959, Yu has contributed a series of works to many important sites. Yu's works
have also been displayed in a range of national and international exhibitions.
From 1986 to 1997, he held his exhibitions in such places as Beijing, Guangzhou
and New York. Both the themes and artistic techniques have won widespread
praise in the past years.
While observing traditional
rules, he uses accurate lines, powerful brush movements as well as the
interplay between dark and light to represent the harmony of nature. Though he
adopts a realistic style, he tries to enrich his works with spiritual beauty
through his brush. Yu says, "That feeling turns into the images of singing
birds and elegant flowers in my paintings." Thanks to his careful
observation of nature and artistic sensitivity, Yu is able to combine realistic
description with artistic expression in his brushwork.
Now as deputy director of
the Academy of Chinese Gongbi Painting of Flowers and Birds and a national
top-level artist, Yu maintains a simple and easy-going style. In addition to
artistic creation, Yu has devoted himself to promoting his painting style as
the cultural heritage of China. "Art is part of my life," Yu says. "I
am proud to be a flower-bird painter. I hope to create a bright future for it
through my efforts."

If you tried to give rock 'n' roll another name, you might have called it Chuck Berry.
Chuck Berry was 29 years old in 1955. He'd been playing mostly blues and R&. B standards in a St. Louis club for several years. But he had started writing his own songs, combining elements of white country music. On a Friday night in May, 1955, he drove up to Chicago to catch a show by the blues great Muddy Waters. After the performance, he casually asked him," How do you get in touch with a record company "
"Why don't you go and see Leonard Chess on 47th "Muddy Waters replied.
So early Monday morning, Berry went to Chess Records and positioned himself in a store across the street. When Leonard Chess arrived, Berry ran over and made a pitch. Chess was impressed by the young man's self-confidence and told him to comeback with a tape of his own material.
Berry returned the following week, bringing with him the other members of the club and four new songs. "And we set the band up, and we played all four of them, " Berry said. "We don't know what they were saying, but they listened."
Berry thought they were listening to "Wee Wee Hours", a blues song. After all, Chess Records was known around Chicago as a blues label(商标). But Leonard Chess was fascinated by "Ida Mae" that Berry had adapted from a traditional country tune called" Ida Red".
Chess was sure the new song could be a hit,but he didn't like the name. It was too rural(土气的). But nobody could think of a name. They looked around and saw a shoe box with Maybellene printed on it. Leonard Chess said," Why don't we name it' Maybellene' "
"Maybellene" quickly rose to No. 1 on the R&. B chart. Two weeks later, it hit No. 5 on the all-important pop chart.
In the years following" Maybellene", Chuck Berry produced an astonishing string of hits, such as "Roll Over Beethoven"" School Days" and" Sweet Little Sixteen".
In 1972, Chuck Berry finally scored a number-one hit on the pop chart with an even more rural name:" My Ding-A-Ling".
17.Why did Chuck Berry go to Chicago on the Friday night in May, 1955
A.To sell his first record. B.To find a record company.
C.To watch a performance. D.To interview Muddy Waters.
18.What does the underlined word" pitch"in paragraph 4 mean
A.Performance. B.Argument.
C.Invitation. D.Self-introduction.
19.How did Leonard Chess get the name" Maybellene" for the song
A.He was inspired by the sweet music.
B.He accidentally saw a shoe label.
C.It was recommended by an ad agency.
D.It was the result of thorough research.
20.What can be inferred from the text
A.The name of a song is not so important.
B."Wee Wee Hours" is a typical rock song.
C."Ida Mae" is much better than" Ida Red".
D."My Ding-A-Ling" is not good enough.

20.考查推理判断。根据倒数第四段“Chess was sure the new song could be a hit,but he didn't like the name. It was too rural(土气的). But nobody could think of a name. They looked around and saw a shoe box with Maybellene printed on it. Leonard Chess said,‘Why don't we name it' Maybellene' ’“Chess确信这首新歌会很受欢迎,但他不喜欢这个名字。太土了。但是没有人能想到一个名字。他们环顾四周,看到一个印有“Maybellene”字样的鞋盒。Leonard Chess说:“为什么我们不把它命名为‘Maybellene’?”;以及最后一段“In 1972, Chuck Berry finally scored a number-one hit on the pop chart with an even more rural name: ‘My Ding-A-Ling’.“1972年,查克·贝里(ChuckBerry)终于凭借一个更具乡村气息的名字“我的丁阿玲”(MyDing-a-Ling)在流行音乐排行榜上获得了第一名。可知,Leonard Chess他们给歌取名字还是比较随意的,Maybellene这首歌最后还是很红,MyDing-a-Ling是很有乡村气息的名字但也是很出名,所以歌的名字不是很重要,最主要是内容。故选A。

Facebook chief operating officer Sheryl
Sandberg and Anna Maria Chavez, chief of American Girl
Scouts, are leading a campaign
to discourage the use of the word "bossy". Does the term destroy
the confidence of young girls
The campaign claims
that terms like "bossy" are improperly applied to females, preventing schoolgirls
from seeing themselves as future "leaders". From its first application, the word has been definitely
connected more with women than with men. It first appeared in
1882, according to the Oxford
English Dictionary, mentioning "a
lady manager who was extremely bossy". As late as 2008, the word appeared in
reference to females four times more often than males, claim the Ban Bossy
campaigners. "To me, the reference is always
in association with women," says Helen Trim, director of Fresh Minds. "I have three
brothers and my family still call me 'bossy' today." Her father is
the only other family member who could be considered in that way, says Trim, but nobody would ever
call him so.
Some educators recommend
that the word should be reclaimed, rather than banned. "But the thing
with 'bossy' is that there's
an infantile (幼稚的) element to it", says Sara Mills, professor at Sheffield
University. "You think of
'bossy' as being like
a little kid who's claiming more than he has the right to claim."
It's not just "bossy"
under fire. "Pushy" is
another target. The implication is
that women shouldn't present themselves as powerful and confident, Mills suggests, which some women are
willing to listen to and accept. Trim points out that
many modern female business role models are able to be bosses without being labeled
"bossy". And she rarely, if ever, hears the word used
within her company. But she says that the
damage may be done much earlier in a woman's life. "It does come
about from those early teenage years." she says. "I think it's
impossible to ban a word, but if people are replacing
it with words like 'confidence' or 'assertiveness', we would all be in
a much better place."
21.More evidence is provided to show "bossy" is more applied to females by ______.
A.the Oxford English Dictionary B.the Ban Bossy campaigners
C.Helen Trim at Fresh Minds D.some experts in education
22.Trim's family still consider her bossy because ______.
A.she is expected to lead in her family
B.she is the boss of her company
C.she is a powerful and confident female
D.her father considers her that way
23.The underlined part "under fire" most probably means ______.
A.definitely replaced B.strongly criticized
C.improperly applied D.eagerly expected
24.How does the author sound when referring to the campaign against "bossy"
A.Objective. B.Angry. C.Doubtful. D.Optimistic.

21.考查细节理解.根据第二段中的“The campaign claims that terms like‘bossy’are improperly applied to females.”该运动声称,像“专横”这样的术语不恰当地适用于女性;以及“As late as 2008,the word appeared in reference to females four times more often than males,claim the Ban Bossy campaigners”Ban Bossy活动人士称,早在2008年,这个词出现在女性身上的频率是男性的四倍。可知.这场运动倡导者说明"Bossy"这个词更多的是描述女性,故选B。
22.考查推理判断。根据第四段中的“The implication is that women shouldn't present themselves as powerful and confident.”言下之意是,女性不应该表现出强大和自信。可推测,Trim的家人认为她专横是因为她是一位有权力有自信的女性,故选C。
23.考查词义猜测。根据倒数第二段中的"You think of ' bossy 'as being like a little kid who's claiming more than he has the right to claim."你认为“专横”就像是一个孩子,他声称自己拥有的权利远远超过了自己的权利;以及最后一段中的“It's not just‘bossy’under fire.‘Pushy’is another target ”"专横"不仅仅是遭到强烈批评的目标,“强人所难的""也是另一个遭到强力批评的目标。所以通过上下文语境可以判断出,under fire的意思为强烈批评。故选B。
24.考查推理判断。纵观全文可知,本文作者只是陈述事实,并引用一些人的观点和看法,没有表明作者态度的句子,因此可见作者对于这场运动是客观的,故选A。

After 195 countries in two years, one traveler has
become the first black woman to visit every country in the world. Jessica
Nabongo ended her journey in the Seychelles, off the coast of
East Africa—just as she said
she would be on "Good Morning, America" back
in March. Friends and family joined her in the Seychelles to celebrate the
incredible achievement.
Nabongo was born
and raised in Detroit by Ugandan-immigrant parents. She has been traveling
internationally since she was four. In addition to her U. S. passport, Nabongo carries a
Ugandan passport, which helped her
gain access to different nations around the world.
The idea to visit
every country on earth came to her in February 2017. At that point, she had visited
about 60 countries. But Nahango didn't tell anyone her plan, at least not at
first. Nabango did some research and discovered that she could become the first
black woman to visit every country. "I didn't want anyone to beat me to it," she said.
Nabongo had been
writing a travel blog since 2009, before social
media was so , as a way to keep
family and friends updated. Today, she documents much
of her travel on Instagram, where she has
almost 200, 000 followers who
have watched her journey around the world.
What makes it to
her Instagram is just a part of her life. There's a lot that goes on behind the
scenes. Seasoned traveler as she was, she got ripped off (被敲诈) during her
journey when exchanging her money for the local currency. More often than not, though, people tried to be
helpful, especially when
Nahongo would tell them what she was trying to accomplish.
Through her
travels, Nabongo broke down
barriers about many countries, particularly those
that people are afraid to visit, and highlighted (突出) the countries
that are often unseen and overlooked.
29.What can we learn about Jessica Nabongo
A.She was born in Uganda.
B.She started her journey from East Africa.
