B Passing through the Atlanta airport one morning, I caught one of those trains that take travelers to their boarding gates. The free trains run back and forth all day. Not many people think it is fun, but I heard them laughing. At the front of the first train were a man and his son who was about five years old. “Here we go!” the father said. “Look out there! See that pilot? I’m sure he’s walking to his plane.” The son stretched his neck to look. As I got off, I remembered something I’d wanted to buy. I was early for my flight, so I decided to go back. When I was about to go back to the train for the gate, I saw that the man and his son had returned, too. “I want to ride some more!” “More?” the father asked. “You’re not tired?” “This is fun!” his son answered. “All right,” the father replied, and when a door opened, we all got on. I realized that the father and his son were just riding this train, making it exciting, sharing each other’s company(陪伴). There are parents who can afford to send their children to Europe or Disneyland, but the children turn out to be bad. There are parents who live in million-dollar houses and give their children cars and swimming pools, but something goes wrong. Why? The answer is so simple. Parents should care enough to spend time, to pay attention and to try their best. It doesn’t cost a cent, but it is the most valuable thing in the world. 21. Where did the story happen? A. At the airport. B. At the supermarket. C. At the ticket office. D. At the bus station. 22. Why did the father and the son ride the free train? A. To say hello to the pilot. B. To see the writer off.

A new study shows something is missing from superhero stories. Most popular superheroes are men, but kids want to see more superheroes who are women. The study was done by two groups. One is The Women's Media Center——A charity (慈善) group which fights for fair treatment (公平待遇) of women in things like TV and movies. The other group is BBC. BBC America is a TV channel. More than 1,000 kids took part in the study. The study shows that most girls think there should be more strong woman characters. They want to see superheroes that look like them. Most Boys want to see more superheroes like Wonder Woman, too. Julie Burton runs the Women's Media Center. She said TV and movies had to make changes. They must provide(提供) more role models who show girls of all different backgrounds. Helping Girls Feel Brave and More Confident Burton said strong woman characters is important for girls. It gives girls someone to look up to and help them feel brave and confident. Sarah Barnett, who runs BBC America, agrees, "If you can't see her, you can't be her." The study asked girls how they feel when they see powerful woman characters on screen. It showed that these characters make them learn the strength and courage in women, and help girls to solve difficulties positively. More Women in Entertainment (娱乐) The report—Galaxy Of Women is a part of a new plan at BBC. The goal is to improve how women are shown in entertainment. BBC America started a new season of Doctor Who. It is a popular science novel show. The Doctor is an alien(外星人) who can travel through time and change bodies. Twelve different actors have played the Doctor since 1963. This season, the Doctor was a woman, played by Jodie Whittaker. This was the first time the Doctor has been played by a woman. 24.

Strong Women Characters and Strong Man Characters. D. More Strong Women Characters, More powerful role models. D Do video games do harm to our children? Today many children spend a lot of their free time playing games on the Internet. In the UK, 99% of children aged 8 to 15 play video games every week. The following information tells us that the profits and dangers of video games must be carefully considered. For many people, video games are fun. They have bright lights, funny cartoons and exciting stories. Everywhere you look, you can see children playing these games. They play on buses and trains, in restaurants and even at school. Video games are educational too. They make children think in a creative (有创造力的) way and they have to move their hands and eyes quickly. This can improve the way that a child's brain works. What's more, video games make children use their imagination (想象力). The player has to do many creative things, like drawing, telling stories and building things. Video games are also a good way to teach children about technology because they can learn how computers and other devices work while they play. However, a recent study suggests that video games can also be bad for children. First, children can download many games for free. This means that parents often don't know if their children are playing violent (暴力的)or scary games. Second, many children spend too much time playing games on computers and this can lead to health problems. Third, if children spend too much time playing games instead of doing homework, they can have problems at school and get bad grades. Finally, video games can affect children's social skills. If children spend too much time playing video games by themselves,they might not learn how to play with their friends. In a word, it seems clear that video games have some advantages and some disadvantages. It is up to parents to know what games their children are playing and how much time they spend on them. Parents should also make sure their children get enough exercise and spend time with other children. 27. The word “profits” in Paragraph 1 probably means “__________”. A. histories B. advantages C. problems D．types 28. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Advantages of playing video games. B. Bad points of playing video games. C. The creation of playing video games. D. The technology of playing video games. 29. Which disadvantages of video games are mentioned in the passage? a. result in bad grades b. make children feel bored c. lead to health problems d. affect children's social skills e. cause problems between parents and kids A. c, d, e B. b, d, e C. a, c, d D. a, b, c 30. The writer probably agrees that ___________. A. children shouldn’t play video games. B. children should be free to play video games. C. parents should stop their children from playing video games. D. parents should help their children set a limit(限制) on playing video games. 第二部分 本部分共 5 题，共 20 分。根据题目要求，完成相应任务。 五、阅读表达（第 34-36 题每题 2 分，第 37 题 4 分，共 10 分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Hi, everybody.
