Zookeepersspent hours searching the zoo and neighboring Botanic Park forthe star.On Sunday morning that week, a security officer(安保人员) noticed a red tail in a tree in Botanic Park. Ravi’s keepers gave a lot of treats to lure him down — but sweet corn and bamboo were not as sweet as freedom.

They want to make sure that they understood how he escaped before putting him back in the zoo. The zookeeper said, the red panda could use the climb tunnel(通道) to reach a big tree near the zoo’s gate. And he probably spent most of his time on the run sitting in a tree.

They do not knowexactly why yawning happens, but they do know many facts aboutyawning.We know that everyone yawns in the same way. First youopen your mouth slowly. Your mouth stays open for about five seconds. You take in a lot of air and yawn then push it out. Then you quickly close your mouth. We also know that yawning is ▲. When you see someone yawn, you yawn, too.Many people say they yawn because they are bored or tired. That might be true. People do often yawn before they sleep and after they wake up. However, we know that people also yawn where they are excited or nervous. Olympic runners, for example, often yawn before a race. Why is that? In 2007, scientists found that a yawn can help a warm brain cool down.Some scientists believe that yawning makes you notice things more quickly. When you yawn you breathe deeply. You also stretch(拉伸) the muscles(肌肉) in your face, mouth, and neck. Maybe this helps you to be quicker to notice things.In some countries, people think yawning is not nice. People put their hands over their mouths to cover a yawn. In other countries, people think yawning is healthy. They think that opening the mouth very big can let good things in. When they breathe out, they think that bad things go out of the body with the air.Scientists won’t spend much time studying yawning. That is probably because yawning does not hurt. It is just something we do.11. Which of the following is the best to fill in ▲in Paragraph 2?A. able to spread(传播) easilyB. able to change quicklyC. able to breathe quickly12. In some scientists’ opinion, how does yawning make people notice things more quickly?A. By cheering people up.B. By cooling down people’s warm brains.C. By stretching the muscles in faces, mouths and necks.13. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A. Advantages of yawning.B. Disadvantages of yawning.C. Different ideas about yawning.14. What can we learn from the passage?A. Yawning is bad for people’s health.B. All the people yawn in the same way.C. Scientist will do further research on yawning.15. Why does the writer write the passage?A. To show the research on yawning.B. To explain why yawning happens.C. To introduce some facts about yawning.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)阅读下面短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

My mom and I were driving home when we passed by a convenience store, where my mom found a corn man. As we drove back around, we 11in front of the store so that we could buy corn.I knew I had a $20 bill (钞票) in my wallet, so my mom and I could each get a corn cob (玉米棒) and we could also get some sweet potatoes to take to my 12 at home. As soon as I opened up the bill, I 13 it was actually a $5 bill. However, we had to pay 6 dollars.I could have gone inside the store to get more money from the ATM (自动柜员机), but I honestly wasn’t comfortable going inside alone because it was too 14 and not safe enough, so my mom told me to just 15 my cousin’s sweet potatoes.I told the man I didn’t have enough money, so I would leave the sweet potatoes and give him the $5. As I put the sweet potatoes down, my mom and I were about to start walking to the car. A young guy next to us, waiting to get his order, offered to 16 them. He said, “Hey, take the 17 . I’ll get them.” I honestly thought to 18 I shouldn’t do that, but he insisted (坚持) doing so. Finally, we said “Thank you” and left.It may have “just” been a dollar short, but still, he did not have to do that and it was like his first instinct (本能) as soon as he saw me put the sweet potatoes down. My mom and I were so 19 . Thanks to that man, my cousin was moved, too.Sometimes, being kind doesn’t mean doing big things.

The idea of “Pure Skies” has been created by PriestmanGoode, a British company, who wants to find a way taking in personal space and touch-free journeys.So, what could new cabins look like?For a start, there would be no more touch screens for passengers to watch movies or play games. That doesn’t mean they won’t be able to do so. Instead, there will be screens which passengers can connect their phones or iPads with, and they can control from here. Besides, safety information will be written on the back of the seat, so passengers can read those all important rules without having to touch the safety card at all.As for the seat pockets? We already know those sometimes are pretty dirty. So in the POST-COVID-19 world, you wouldn’t have a seat pocket at all. But there will be a removable (可移动的) bag for you to put some little things together.The way the seats are put could also look different. PriestmanGoode advises that the rows (排) of seats should be staggered (错开的) so that people have more personal space. This also allows people to sit with a group of two or three friends or family members, while staying away from strangers on the plane. Between each row of seats, there would be a screen from the ceiling (天花板) to the top of the seat for further protection.At the moment the “Pure Skies” cabin is just an idea, but it offers a look at what flying could look like in the future.26．The idea of “Pure Skies” _______.A．comes from PriestmanGoode, a US companyB．may make it possible to take in personal spaceC．will change the world of travel completely27．The underlined word “touch-free” in the passage means “_______” in Chinese.A．不感动的B．无接触的C．免费触摸的28．Passengers can read safety information _______.A．on the back of the seatB．in the seat pocketsC．from the middle of the ceiling29．Which is NOT right in the passage?A．Putting a screen between each row of seats is to further protect passengers. B．Passengers can watch movies on screens by controlling from their phones or iPads. C．The staggered seats allow people to sit with strangers as well as their friends.30．This article is mainly about _______.A．how to make more personal spaceB．why a company has created the new cabinC．what flying could look like post COVID-19Today almost everyone has a smart phone. So street phone booths (亭) are out of date and seem to be useless. But cities like Shanghai are trying to bring the old phone booths to life.Shanghai will make changes to 263 phone booths in Xuhui District. The Library Booth is one of the six new kinds of booths, offering 60 booths for people to borrow and read. Another kind allows users to listen to audiobooks (有声书) and even record their own voices.Shanghai is not the only city trying to save the old phone booths. London cares about them even more, because the red booths have long been a special scene in London since the 1930s when they were painted all red. In recent years, London has come up with many ideas to help phone booths stay useful. The UK company British Telecom has added screens and free WiFito some booths. Users can use them to surf online and search for maps and weather reports. The company also allows people to rent (租) some booths to change them as they want to. Since 2009, more than 1,500 phone booths have been turned into flower shops, mini-cafes, art museums and even shower rooms.In New York City, three phone booths in Time Square are turned into places for immigrant (移民) voices. When visitors pick up the phone, they can listen to oral histories of immigration from the newest New Yorkers. They can also open the books inside the booth to know more about the storytellers. Or they can share a part of their own stories if they wish.Brazil made phone booths works of art. Sao Paulo paired 100 artists with 100 phone booths. Some artists painted on the booths, and others made them sculptures (雕塑) — one was shaped like a brain and another wore a pair of shoes.Phone booths are finding creative ways to live on. Will they succeed? Only time will tell. 31．Street phone booths are out of date and seem to be useless because _______.A．the street phone booths are very oldB．smart phones are widely used in daily lifeC．there is no WiFi and screens in the booths32．London tried harder than Shanghai to keep the phone booths useful in the following ways EXCEPT _______.A．providing screens and free WiFiB．turning the old phone booths into six new kinds of boothsC．giving people a chance to change old phone booths for other uses33．For the special use of phone booths in New York, visitors CAN’T _______.A．share their own stories if they wishB．read books inside the booth about Time SquareC．listen to oral histories from the newest New Yorkers34．Brazil made phone booths artworks by _______.A．changing them into sculpturesB．making one booth look like a pair of shoesC．pairing 100 artists with 100 phone booths35．What can we learn from the passage?A．Phone booths will be sure to succeed living on in the near future.B．Different cities may use different ways to bring phone booths back to life.C．Some visitors in New York City may be glad to share their own stories in the Library Booth.四、补全短文5选4You spent many nights on your schoolwork.

Learn to deal with exam failure quickly and properly.37．.Everyone has gone through tons of failures. Some of them may have worse experiences than you. Winston Churchill did not pass sixth grade.

When she went inside, she saw small children working with pots full of acid (酸).Kelley was angry. She later learned that there were over one million children working in hot, crowded and unsafe factories. The work was very dangerous. Every year tens of thousands of kids died or were seriously hurt. In 1889, Kelley knew that she had to do something. She wrote a book called Our Tolling Children. Kelley asked people not to buy things made by child workers.Kelley started giving speeches and writing reports. Within a few years, she became famous. Everyone knew her as the leader against child labor (劳动力). In 1893, Kelley fought for new law in Illinois, which said no factories could employ (雇佣) child workers under the age of fourteen. In the same year, a new job, Chief Factory Inspector, was also created, and Kelley got the job to make sure everyone followed the law.However, in Kelley’s second year as Chief Factory Inspector, something had happened. Smallpox (天花) broke out in Illinois. Lots of people died of it. Kelley knew that smallpox was passed easily from one person to another. It was even passed by clothing.When Kelley knew that sick people were still making clothes and giving the clothes to the children and people in their village, she then visited factory after factory. Whenever she saw sick workers, she made them stop working. Kelley told the factory owners to burn the clothes. Even though they were very angry, they burned thousands of dollars’ worth of clothes. Kelley’s actions saved many American children from smallpox, and she kept working for children’s rights for the rest of her life.40．What were the wonders of Amer ica’s factories when Kelley was young?__________________________________________________________________________ 41．How did Kelley make sure everyone followed the new law?__________________________________________________________________________ 42．When did Smallpox break out in Illinois?__________________________________________________________________________ 43．Why did Kelley tell factory owners to burn clothes?__________________________________________________________________________ 44．Kelley spent her whole life working for children’s rights, didn’t she?__________________________________________________________________________六、语篇翻译After 76 days of lockdown (封城), the city of Wuhan was set free on April 8.

AAn elephant and a crocodile were once standing beside river. They were disputing which was the better animal 。

“Look at my strength,” said the elephant. “I can pull up a tree, roots and all, with my trunk”“Ah! But your skin is not nearly so thick as mine,”replied the crocodile. “No knife or tooth can cut through it.”Just as they were coming to blows, a lion happened to pass.“My dear friends!” said the King of all animals, going up to them. “Let me know the cause of your disagreement.”“Will you kindly tell us which is the better animal?” cried both at once. Certainly,“Said the lion, pointing across the river.” Do you see the soldier’s metal hat on that wall?” “Yes!” replied the beasts.“Well, then,” continued the lion, “go and get it, and bring it to me, and I shall be able then to decide between you.”Upon hearing this, off they started. The crocodile, being used to the water, reached the opposite side of the river first, and was soon standing beside the wall.Here he waited till the elephant came up. The elephant, seeing that the crocodile had no way of reaching their goal, raised his long trunk, and took down the hat quite easily.They then made their way together back again across the river. The elephant was trying to keep up with the fast-moving crocodile in the water and became careless. When he was forcedto turn sharply to avoid a floating tree branch, the elephant dropped the hat and it fell to the river bottom. The crocodile noticed the accident, so down he dived, and brought it up in his huge mouth. They then returned, and the crocodile laid the metal hat at the lion's feet. The King took it up, and turning to the elephant, said, “You, because of your size and trunk, were able to reach the hat on the wall but, having lost it, you were unable to get it back. And you,” said the lion to the crocodile, “although unable to reach the hat, were able to dive for it and save it. You are both wise and able in your own ways. One is no better than the other.” （）26.

By sharing their ideas.D. By listening to the lion.BThey say that “travel is the best teacher” and there is no better example of this idea than the Ming dynasty travel writer and geographer Xu Xiake (1587-1641). His book The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake , not only encouraged a love of travelling among Chinese people but provided important scientific information about the country's land and geography.Born into a wealthy Jiangyin family, Xu became interested in books about different places at an early age and wanted to travel. When he was 18, however. Xu's father died and so, it seemed, did his travelling dreams.
