【答案】C
【解析】

A. smells; to have B. looks; having C. tastes; to have
【答案】A
【解析】

考查动词辨析和非谓语动词。smells闻起来;looks看起来;tastes尝起来。can’t wait to do sth.“迫不及待做某事”,所以第二空填写不定式;根据“I can’t wait...a try”可知,说话者还没有尝过,此处表示牛肉闻起来很香。故选A。

Soon night fell and Johnson could not see anything. Everything was black. There was no moon, and the stars were covered by clouds. As he was climbing only about 10 feet away from the top, he slipped and fell. He could only see darkness passing at a great speed. He kept falling...He thought certainly he would die.

It was my first year teaching in a special needs classroom and I wasn’t sure what to expect at our school sports meet. My students faced a lot of challenges, from mild learning disabilities (轻度学习障碍) to cerebral palsy (脑瘫).
Mark was one of the worst. He had to get around in a wheelchair. But he was always positive and greeted everyone with a huge smile.
His classmates loved him, especially Mike, Andy and Lucas—three boys who were good at sports. I knew Mark wanted to be like them. When track and field (田径运动) day came, Mike, Andy and Lucas placed well, giving the crowd something to cheer about. Mark sat on the sidelines (边线), cheering them on.
The final event of the day was the 400-meter race. Everyone was invited to either walk or run. We watched as they took off. Mike, Andy and Lucas all wanted to prove (证明) who the better player was.
But when the three reached the finish line, they stopped and turned to look behind them. At the back of the crowd was Mark. He was alone on the track with over half the distance left.
Mike, Andy and Lucas looked at each other, and a silent thought passed between them. Slowly, they ran back toward their friend. They stood around Mark, cheering him on as he had done for them before.
In the end, the four crossed the finish line together to the excited shouts of their teachers and classmates. Seeing the look on Mark’s face I came to understand what makes the Special Olympics so special. Everyone deserves (值得) their own time to shine.

Because of the COVID-19, many people look for fun online. Watching livestreaming shows has become part of their lives. At the same time, traditional culture has found a bigger stage(舞台)online. Many traditional artists are starting to livestream like Douyin and Bilibili. Some of them sing Peking Opera(京剧), some make paper cutting, while others perform Chinese classical music. A growing number of young people are starting to become more interested in traditional culture because of livestreaming.
Li Jun is a Peking Opera performer from the Shanghai Jingju Theater Company. The 59-year-old took up his smart phone and started livestreaming. Unlike performing on a real stage, Li uses common places as his stage, including his office and study room. Except(除了)singing, Li also teaches viewers(观众)about Peking Opera. People can ask him questions and get answers directly.
“Livestreaming has brought this traditional art down to earth.” One viewer said, “it gives young people an easier way to learn more about the traditional art.” Li has more than 6,000 fans on Douyin, while one of his videos got 42,000 views on Bilibili.
On March 26th, 2020, Bilibili livestreamed a huafu show on the third China Huafu Day. Performers showed clothes in traditional Chinese styles, including those from Wei, Tang and Ming dynasties. During the show, viewers not only enjoyed looking at the clothes, but also watched how performers used ancient styles of make-up.
As Guangming Daily said, livestreaming has come to a new stage through which traditional culture can be kept alive.

It was my first year teaching in a special needs classroom and I wasn’t sure what to expect at our school sports meet. My students faced a lot of challenges, from mild learning disabilities (轻度学习障碍) to cerebral palsy (脑瘫).
Mark was one of the worst. He had to get around in a wheelchair. But he was always positive and greeted everyone with a huge smile.
His classmates loved him, especially Mike, Andy and Lucas—three boys who were good at sports. I knew Mark wanted to be like them. When track and field (田径运动) day came, Mike, Andy and Lucas placed well, giving the crowd something to cheer about. Mark sat on the sidelines (边线), cheering them on.
The final event of the day was the 400-meter race. Everyone was invited to either walk or run. We watched as they took off. Mike, Andy and Lucas all wanted to prove (证明) who the better player was.
But when the three reached the finish line, they stopped and turned to look behind them. At the back of the crowd was Mark. He was alone on the track with over half the distance left.
Mike, Andy and Lucas looked at each other, and a silent thought passed between them. Slowly, they ran back toward their friend. They stood around Mark, cheering him on as he had done for them before.
In the end, the four crossed the finish line together to the excited shouts of their teachers and classmates. Seeing the look on Mark’s face I came to understand what makes the Special Olympics so special. Everyone deserves (值得) their own time to shine.

Because of the COVID-19, many people look for fun online. Watching livestreaming shows has become part of their lives. At the same time, traditional culture has found a bigger stage(舞台)online. Many traditional artists are starting to livestream like Douyin and Bilibili. Some of them sing Peking Opera(京剧), some make paper cutting, while others perform Chinese classical music. A growing number of young people are starting to become more interested in traditional culture because of livestreaming.
Li Jun is a Peking Opera performer from the Shanghai Jingju Theater Company. The 59-year-old took up his smart phone and started livestreaming. Unlike performing on a real stage, Li uses common places as his stage, including his office and study room. Except(除了)singing, Li also teaches viewers(观众)about Peking Opera. People can ask him questions and get answers directly.
“Livestreaming has brought this traditional art down to earth.” One viewer said, “it gives young people an easier way to learn more about the traditional art.” Li has more than 6,000 fans on Douyin, while one of his videos got 42,000 views on Bilibili.
On March 26th, 2020, Bilibili livestreamed a huafu show on the third China Huafu Day. Performers showed clothes in traditional Chinese styles, including those from Wei, Tang and Ming dynasties. During the show, viewers not only enjoyed looking at the clothes, but also watched how performers used ancient styles of make-up.
As Guangming Daily said, livestreaming has come to a new stage through which traditional culture can be kept alive.
