27、15 year-old Maddi went to an evening party with some boys without parental permission, playing late into the night. So her dad gave her a choice---either handing over her phone for a month, or giving him right to use her social media for two weeks. She chose the latter, giving Dad the keyword to her TikTok, and the Internet is so appreciative.

Maddi’s dad began to take over her social media early in November, so her followers could expect “some amazing posts, photos and short videos from her dad”. On November 11, Larry, Maddi’s dad, had already begun his funny performance to embarrass his teen daughter, by posting a selfie(自拍), titled “Felt cute. Might delete later”. But that was only the beginning, and by her dad's third post, the teen was already begging him to take away her phone for a month.

“After the first day, Maddi changed her mind and wanted to choose the one month,” the girl’s mother Tawnya couldn’t help laughing when interviewed by TODAY.com. “Larry told her, ‘No. I’m too fascinated. I have too many ideas. We’re sticking with the two weeks.’ He’s loving it. I think he’s gonna make his own TikTok account(账号) when this is over.”

From posing in a tight top and wearing a blonde wig(假发), to ballet dance, it seemed like there was nothing the 43-year-old daddy wouldn’t do to entertain, and Maddi’s friends and social media followers were attracted.

Over the two weeks, Madddi’s Instagram fans jumped from around 2,700 to 12,700, at the time of this writing, so she should probably thank her dad for the punishment. The only question is, can she continue Dad’s style? She’ll have to try, as many of her social media followers are already asking her to “bring Dad back”.

“We’re always down to embarrass our kids!” Tawnya Ford said; adding that her husband often picks up their kids from school dressed as Donald Duck.

【1】Why did Maddi let her dad use her TikTok?

A．She wanted to share with him.

B．She wanted to amaze her fans.

C．She had wasted too much time.

D．She had broken the family rule.

【2】What made Maddi change her mind after the first day?

A．Her fans, expectation.

B．Her mother’s words.

C．Her dad’s funny posts.

D．Her addiction to the Internet.

【3】How did Maddi’s mother sound when speaking to the interviewer?

A．Stressed and serious.

B．Excited and Proud.

C．Nervous and anxious.

D．Relaxed and amused.

【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?

A．The Result of Dad’s Punishment

B．Maddi’s Two -Week Offline Life

C．Dad Helps Daughter Gain Fans

D．Dad Took over Daughter’s TikTok

28、In a dry desert lies a small seed. It is the seed of a cactus (仙人掌) plant. The seed lies on the ground. It lies there for one year. It is waiting. The cactus seed must wait for rain. But not just any rain. It waits for a heavy rain. It needs a heavy rain so it can grow.

One day, a heavy rain falls. It makes the seed sprout. The small seed then sends out tiny roots. The roots go down into the earth. A new cactus begins to grow. The growing cactus needs food. Its food is in the seed. The seed feeds the cactus as it grows.

The cactus sends out more roots. They go deeper into the earth. There they reach water. Other roots are not so deep. They take water from light rains. Soon the food in the seed is gone. The new cactus must now make its own food. The cactus takes in light from the sun. It takes in air and water. The cactus turns these into food.

For two or more years the cactus grows. Then it is ready to flower. The cactus produces a bud (花蕾). The bud is the start of a flower. The bud has hairs on it. The hairs help keep animals away.

Then one day, there is a flower. But it will not stay for long. The cactus needs to save its food and water. So it keeps its flower only a few days. Then seeds fall from the flower. They fall to the ground. Here they lie for a year. They lie and wait for rain. One day, they will grow into a new cactus.

【1】Why does the seed of a cactus lie on the ground?

A．To wait for a strong wind to send it far away.

29、Nobody expects a natural disaster to strike. Neither does anyone know the impact it can have on life. The following measures can save your life in an emergency.

Typhoon

Typhoons occur in the northwestern Pacific Ocean, particularly in exposed regions like the Caroline Islands, the Philippines, and Japan. The best place to hide during a typhoon is a secure basement or a bathroom with no windows. A must-have device is a battery-powered weather radio, through which you will hear evacuation orders or in other cases, instructions on how to survive in your shelter and learn about the weather situation.

Flood

Floods occur more often than any other natural disaster and change the landscape dramatically. They are usually caused by intense rainfalls lasting for days. Don’t try to be the bravest person around and stay in your house. Once you hear the evacuation warning, leave for safer higher grounds with your important papers in a waterproof container.

Avalanche

An avalanche can hit when you are enjoying Alpine skiing in a dreamlike location. It is very fast and disastrous, burying everything in its way under tons of snow. When an avalanche starts, try to move to the side of the slope as fast as you can. If you get buried in the snow, dig an air pocket to be able to keep breathing. Wait for the rescue team to find you and don’t waste your energy shouting or digging frantically. Call out when you hear the team approaching.

Wildfire

Wildfires spread at an amazing speed and destroy everything in their way. If you are caught in a wild fire, use a wet cloth to cover your nose and mouth to ensure that you can breathe. Try to stay upwind of the fire at all times and get close to a pond or river. Stay low and cover yourself with wet clothing, a blanket, or soil until the fire passes.

【1】Among the four natural disasters, which one requires people to hide indoors?

A．Typhoon.

B．Flood.

C．Avalanche.

D．Wildfire.

【2】What should those trapped in typhoons probably do when they hear the evacuation orders?

A．Get to a basement or windowless bathroom.

B．Find something solid to hide under.

C．Leave the place where they are.

D．Get a torch in case of a blackout.

【3】What do we know from the text?

A．Typhoons occur only in the exposed regions in the northwestern Pacific Ocean.

B．Floods cause the most frequent damage among the disasters mentioned.

C．Those who meet with avalanches are advised to call out the minute they’re trapped.

D．Getting clean air matters most in the case of wildfires, despite the difficulty.

31、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can be only used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

Sept 27 is World Tourism Day. Of course, travel isn’t a new discovery. Imagine how Italian traveler Marco Polo must have felt when he found himself on Chinese 【1】, seeing a way of life quite different from anything he’d seen before.

And how 【2】 must it have been to listen to Zhang Qian when he returned to China from his journey through Central Asia and West Asia? His brain must have been packed with everything he’d seen and heard, leading to the 【3】 of the Silk Road.

Travel is one of the most exciting experiences a human being can have. Nowadays, more people are traveling than ever before. By train, plane and car, people all around the globe are 【4】 to places that people didn’t even know 【5】 a few centuries ago, or only knew from books.

Some people have traveled all over the world, and travel is a way of life to them. They perhaps know what to expect before they travel. That’s why the best travel is when it’s for the first time. Imagine a person who has always wanted to travel to the United States. Of course, they’ve probably seen the Statue of Liberty a thousand times on the TV, and the White House, and all the other famous 【6】 But none of that would compare to the 【7】 of looking out of the cabin window as the plane lands, watching the cities and streets of the real America come into 【8】.

Although travel is often just for fun, it’s also 【9】. We may not know that we are getting an education, but we still are.

We’re learning every day: new words in a new language, new people, and new ways of life. But this learning takes place in the school of the world, not the classroom. One of the lessons we learn is 【10】 a moral one. As we get to know foreign places, we come to understand that there are many different ways to live, and that the way we live isn’t necessarily the best way. The British politician Benjamin Disraeli summed this up well when he said, “Travel teaches toleration.”

32、阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

The “Pygmalion effect”(皮格马利翁效应) is a finding that people will act or behave in the way that others expect them to. The effect has both good and bad influences ----a person expected by others to succeed will, but the opposite is also usually true. Most of the time, these expectations are not openly discussed. They are shown through things like word choice or body language. The effect is most commonly discussed in terms of education and the workplace.

The Pygmalion effect comes from a Greek fairy tale. Pygmalion was a king and sculptor(雕刻家) who created and fell in love with a statue(雕塑) of his dream woman. He begged the goddess Venus to give life to his creation, and she agreed. Pygmalion married the woman and they had a perfect life together. He had expected the statue to be perfect in every way, and she satisfied all his expectations.

George Bernard Shaw was an Irish who wrote plays. He wrote a play Pygmalion, which served as the inspiration(灵感） for My Fair Lady. In these plays, a professor changes a low-class woman into a lady primarily by believing in her and expecting the best of her.

The Pygmalion effect has been studied in education. Teachers who are given information that certain students are more likely to stand out than other students often find that those do perform better----even if they are not really advantaged. Even teachers who try not to show their expectations for certain students often find that those expectations have influential power.

The Pygmalion effect also has an important role in the working world. Leaders in a company can often influence the work and success of staff by expecting them to either rise or fall. The same as in school, these expectations never have to be shown clearly in order to take root.
