Pupils without umbrellas or raincoats crowded in doorways hoping to make it home between showers. Outside the skies were grey. Nancy Lees thoughts were suddenly grey, too.She did not think she had done anything wrong, yet that tight (紧的) little knot came in her throat just the same as she came near Miss OShays door. Perhaps she had banged her locker too often and too hard. Perhaps the note in French she had written to Sallie halfway across the study hall just for fun had never got to Sallie but into Miss OShays hands instead.She knocked on Miss OShays door. That familiarly solid and competent voice said, “Come in.”Miss OShay had a way of making you feel welcome, even if you came to be punished.“Sit down, Nancy Lee Johnson,” said Miss OShay. “I have something to tell you.” Nancy Lee sat down.“But I must ask you to promise not to tell anyone yet.”“I wont, Miss OShay,” Nancy Lee said, wondering what on earth the principal had to say to her.“You are about to graduate,” Miss OShay said. “And we shall miss you. You have been an excellent student, Nancy, and you will not be without honors (荣誉) on the senior list, as I am sure you know. ” At that point there was a light knock on the door. Miss OShay called out, “Come in,” and Miss Dietrich entered. “May I be part of this, too?” she asked, tall and smiling. “Of course,” Miss OShay said. “I was just telling Nancy Lee what we thought of her. But I hadnt got around to giving her the news. Perhaps, Miss Dietrich, youd like to tell her yourself.”Miss Dietrich was always direct. “Nancy Lee,” she said, “your picture has won the Artist Club scholarship.”The brown girls eyes widened, her heart jumped, then her throat tightened again. She tried to smile, but instead tears came to her eyes. “Dear Nancy Lee,” Miss OShay said, “we are so happy for you.” The elderly white woman took her hand and shook it warmly while Miss Dietrich smiled with pride.Nancy Lee must have danced all the way home. She never remembered quite how she got there through the rain. She hoped she had been calm. But certainly she hadnt stopped to tell anybody her secret on the way. Raindrops, smiles, and tears mingled on her brown face. She hoped her mother hadnt yet got home and that the house was empty.31. How did Nancy feel on her way to Miss OShays office?A. Scared.B. Excited.C. Uncertain.D. Confident.32. What can we infer from the passage about Nancy?A. She was Miss Dietrichs best student.B. She would never tell anyone her secret.C. She was often punished by the principal.D. She would try to hide feelings at home.33. Which is the best title for this story?A. A New Star.B. The Girl.C. A Young Artist.D. The News.DMany of us stayed at home in January because of COVID-19, but a special mom and her two babies took a trip. They were driven a few miles from a breeding center in northeastern Argentina to a 1.7 million-acre nature reserve called Gran Ibera Park. There the three jaguars were released into the wild. Their release was the first reintroduction of jaguars in that part of Argentina since the species (物种) almost died out there 70 years ago. Scientists hope they can turn things around for this important apex predator, meaning one that is on top of the food chain (链). Only 200 to 300 jaguars remain in the country.“That is the highest level of protection that can be given in Argentina,” says Sebastian Di Martino. Hes the conservation director for Rewilding Argentina, which is one of the organizations helping to restore jaguar populations.The jaguars journey started in 2018 when the park was built in the Ibera Wetlands. Several thousand jaguars once lived there, along with other important species. But the jaguars fur was valuable, so people hunted them. Then farmers cleared the land they lived on. With the jaguars gone, the ecosystem was out of balance.“In the absence of this species, ecosystems stop working well and may even collapse,” Di Martino says. “The main prey (猎物) of the jaguar is the capybara and the caiman. They are very abundant because of the absence of the jaguar, which causes imbalances in the ecosystem.”The park was the first step to give jaguars a place to live. Then they needed to breed. A female named Mariua mated with a male jaguar from Brazil. Mariua then gave birth to the two baby jaguars.It sounds simple, but the reality is more complicated. Di Martino said that jaguars born at breeding centers have to learn how to hunt and must not become used to humans. Otherwise, they will not have success in the wild.The people who work at the breeding center stay out of sight. They use video cameras to watch the jaguars from several miles away. “We provide live prey for them, without them realizing it comes from people,” Di Martino said.Mariua wears a radio collar so researchers can track her and her babies, Karai and Pord. “So far, so good. Shes been hunting capybaras and wild pigs and is raising her babies very well,” Di Martino says.34 What can we learn about the jaguar?A. It is found only in Argentina.B. It is taught to hunt by humans.C. It is not hunted by any other animal.D. It is not considered as a rare species.35. Which of the following words can best describe Di Martinos job?A. Exciting.B. Meaningful.C. Surprising.D. Successful.36. What does the underlined word “abundant” mean in this passage?A. More than enough.B. Less than enough.C. Getting more powerful.D. Getting less powerful.37. The writer mentioned Mariua _.A. to give an example of jaguars lifeB. to show the importance of female jaguarsC. to introduce a way of training jaguarsD. to explain the method of rewilding jaguars第II卷(主观题共40分)四、词汇运用(本大题共8小题， 每小题1分，共8分)A)根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式，38.
