I can get the kittens out,” he said. "How, Jared?" Jared took the kitten food to the radiator, "Hungry, guys?” he whispered. He sat on the floor and spread the food beside him. A kitten came out.

It is a special way of connecting people all over the world in different ways and ceremonies. That finally all results in a group of people sitting together and enjoying a cup of tea. Chinese tea culture Since China is considered as the birthplace of tea, it is no wonder that Chinese tea culture is rich in history and tradition. Today, Chinese tea continues to be used in Chinese medicine and is commonly used on both formal and informal occasions either for personal enjoyment or as a Chinese cultural tradition. Japanese tea culture Japan also has a long history with tea, especially Japanese Matcha, which is a kind of ground green tea. Japanese tea is commonly used in Japanese tea ceremonies and only in recent years has become popular in western culture. British tea culture When it comes to British tea, British tea culture is what comes to mind. A hot cup of Earl Grey tea often serves with a little milk and a biscuit in the afternoon as a pick-me-up for the day, which makes you feel better and more energetic. Even though tea may not be native to England, this British tea tradition is still going strong today. Moroccan tea culture When you visit Morocco, it is hard to miss the outstanding tea culture that is such a special way to welcome guests. Before any gathering, a pot of mint(薄荷 )tea is always prepared and served among the host and guests. This is an expression of Moroccan tradition and kindness, which should always be accepted by guests as a sign of appreciation and respect to the host. 21．What do Chinese and Japanese tea cultures have in common?

He swatted (重拍) at the fly, but it did not move. He reached out to touch the insect, only to find it was only wet paint. Turning around, he saw that his apprentice (学徒 ), Giotto, was laughing. Giotto had painted the fly when Cimabue was away, and it looked so real that Cimabue had been completely fooled. Giotto di Bondone was born into a poor family in a village. Legend has it that one day, when Cimabue was wandering around the countryside, he spotted a young shepherd boy drawing pictures of his sheep, which were so vivid that Cimabue immediately asked him to come to Florence and learn how to paint. That was how Giotto’s story began in Florence, where the young student flourished under Cimabue s instruction and soon surpassed his master in skill. At that time, people in paintings didn’t look real, and the symbolism of art was difficult for viewers to connect with it. Innovation (创新 ) was not stressed, so art had remained the same for hundreds of years. However, Giotto thought art should be something more connected with people in a more realistic way. His masterpieces included the forty major frescoes (壁画) for the Arena Chapel. Adopting many techniques that were uncommon then, he painted people the way he saw them, instead of the overly tall and boxy people that other artists painted. He created three-dimensional space by using perspective, something that had not been done since Roman times. In addition to painting, Giotto wrote poetry and drew architectural plans. When Giotto was in his sixties, he painted the Ognissanti Madomma, another famous work of art. He continued working until the age of seventy. The ideas Giotto brought to painting throughout his life revolutionized the art world and made him one of the greatest painters ever. 24．What does the anecdote in paragraph 1 tell us about Giotto? A．His humor B．His talent C．His courage D．His determination 25．How did Cimabue feel about Giotto’s painting when they first met? A．Impressed B．Stressed C．Doubtful D．Concerned 26．What made Giotto’s works distinguished at that time? A．Vivid colors B．Classic skills C．Original composition D．Lifelike quality 27．Which of the following best summarizes Giott’s story? A．Great minds think alike B．Innovation is the vitality of art C．Constant dripping wears away a stone D．A slow sparrow should make an early start 第 5 页 共 10 页 C When Stanford University student Ellen Xu, now 18, was a five-year-old in San Diego, California, she clearly remembers that her parents rushed her little sister to the hospital. Three-year-old Kate had fallen seriously ill; she had a fever, reddened eyes, and some swelling (肿胀) in her hands and tongue. At first, the puzzled doctors thought she had flu, but when her condition didn't improve, the Xus returned to the clinic room, where a doctor by chance had a similar earlier experience with such symptoms (症状) in the blood known as Kawasaki disease. Though rare (罕见的) , it's the leading cause of the heart disease in babies and young children, and its causes remain unknown. The doctor knew how to treat it: He ordered some medicine for Kate, and finally she shook off the illness without suffering damage to her heart. Xu remembers being curious about her sister's illness condition and was amazed that the grown-ups couldn't answer her questions about why it was so hard to check. “In my mind, it was this puzzle I wanted to solve, ” she says. Ten years later, wanting to enter a high school science fair, she had an idea. What if we had a doctor in our pocket? So she created just that: Using AI, Xu designed a program that uses visual facts to check the disease based on five physical symptoms. The technology works the same way as apps that can identify birds and plants with photos you've taken on your cellphone. Worried parents can upload a photo that they have taken of their child, and the technology will scan the picture for symptoms of the disease, which often have a strong visual factors, such as a swollen tongue. Xu's invention has been applied as a web app on the website. “The technology could also be developed for recognizing some other diseases,” she says, “It means a lot to me. I want to use AI to help people live happier and healthier lives.” Xu says that her sister Kate, now in her third year of high school with dreams of becoming an environmental engineer, is strong and healthy. 28. Why did the author mention Kate's illness? A. To explain who treated Kate's illness. B. To prove how serious Kate's illness was. C. To show how much Ellen loved her sister. D. To tell why Ellen solved the puzzle in her mind. 29. Why did Ellen design the program? A. To save her sister. B. To earn a prize. C. To check a rare disease. D. To identify birds and plants. 30. What can best describe Ellen according to the passage? 第 6 页 共 10 页 A. Determined and careful. B. Creative and helpful. C. Diligent and selfless. D. Active and easygoing. 31. What is the best title for the text? A. AGirl's Road to Invention. B. An Invention Helping Doctors. C. AGirl Recovering from a Disease. D. ANew Method to Treat a Disease. D A compost (堆肥) program at the Wesley School in Los Angeles is helping kindergarten through eighth grade students to teach them ways to solve human-driven climate change. For the past year, 5, 200 pounds of food waste from the school has gone into compost containers rather than a landfill where it would just break down and produce planet-warming gases. The school workers could have easily thrown the food waste into a city-provided green bin (垃 圾箱) . But taking it out of sight, which would have been easier, would have missed the point, says science teacher Johnna Hampton. “When it's invisible like that, they don't see it, but they know it doesn't sink in (心安) .” When sixth grader Finn saw the finished compost pile, it sank in. “That's my orange chicken in there,” he says. “That's not just like any food. Somewhere in there is my food.” The school will use the compost on plants around campus. Some will be offered to families that want to use it at home, and whatever is left will be donated. Fifth grader Sloan felt so encouraged by the school's compost program she decided to take climate action outside of school. Along with several other fifth graders, Sloane says, “We did a lemonade stand at our friend's house and we made over $200, and we donated it.” They also helped create a petition (请愿) to replace the plastic forks and spoons in the school cafeteria with compostable ones. Fifth grader Kingston was excited to learn his food waste will help grow new food on campus. “It feels good that you're doing something that helps the planet, instead of just sitting and watching it get destroyed,” he says. Jennifer Silverstein, an expert on climate, says the school's compost program checks a lot of the boxes for effective, positive climate education to help youth understand the crisis of human-caused climate change. 32. What is the purpose of the compost program? A. To prevent wasting food. B. To deal with climate change. C. To raise money for the school. D. To keep friendship among kids. 33. How did the school deal with the food waste before? A. By selling to families as compost. B. By putting into compost containers. C. By turning into new food again. D. By throwing into dustbins. 第 7 页 共 10 页 34. How has the program affected Sloan? A. She has taken climate action. B. She has gained a sense of achievement. C. She has got a part-time job in the school. D. She has developed a new way to donate. 35. What can we learn about the program from the last two paragraphs? A. It is well received. B. It is highly profitable. C. It needs to be more effective. D. It takes time to watch the result. 第二节 （共 5小题；每小题 2.5分，满分 12.5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。 World Wildlife Day is celebrated each year on March 3rd.
