It is a goal for every child and parent to eventually achieve 21 , but it is nevertheless sad when it happens. One Sunday in August, my son and I worked to 22 his car for a journey. He would move across the country after twenty years of 23 under my roof. We started early, 24 our work went slowly into the afternoon. 25 I was carefully packing the car, the Sunday baseball game came on. Our hometown Cardinals were playing against the Atlanta Braves. 26 unhappy thoughts about his departure, I completely forgot about the game. Just then, my son called, “Dad, come on in. Lets 27 the rest of the game.” Looking at his red-colored eyes, I 28 realized that he, too, found this to be a 29 time and that he, too, wanted to 30 one last father-son moment. I led the way to the TV set without 31 .There, 32 , we found the Cardinals losing 31 . “How come? They won the champion last season.” He whispered without doubt. “Thats fine,” I 33 , wanting so much to keep this last moment before he left. “Lets watch anyway.”Then came a 34 . The Cardinals took the lead. In that one moment we were 35 , excitedly jumping up and down and experiencing a joy that I could 36 imagine happening on that bittersweet afternoon. The 37 of that day was replaced by enjoying an exciting baseball game. It was a wonderful feeling that made the day, the trip, our life, seem so 38 .And then he left.I believed in 39 moments that happen when I least expect them. Such moments appear and then disappear, just like my son as he drove off that afternoon to start a new 40 in his life. 21.AsuccessBhappinessCseparationDrecognition22.AdecorateBprepare C. operate Ddrag23.AlivingBstudying Cbedding Dstaying24.AandBsoCorDbut25.AIfBBecauseCAsDThough26.AAccustomed toBAbsorbed inCAnnoyed byDAdapted to27.A. watchBabandonC. finishDapplaud28.AconstantlyBinstantlyCoccasionallyDfrequently29.AbeneficialBpleasantCsuitableDdifficult30.AseekBspareCshareDstand31.AhesitationBpermissionCinvitationDsatisfaction32.AamusedBscared CdisappointedDalarmed33.ArecommendedBcomfortedCreflectedDacknowledged34.AsurpriseBconflictCapprovalDchallenge35.AcongratulatedBoccupiedCtrappedDtransformed36.AeverBalwaysCneverDstill37.AambitionBsadnessCsympathyDaffection38.ArightBhardCbusyDabsurd39.AcrazyBtoughC awfulDmagical40.AtargetBdestinationCchapterDfamily其次部分：阅读理解（第一节20小题，其次节5小题；每小题2分，满分50分）第一节：阅读下列材料，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。AMany more babies will be born before the Year of the Horse ends, because couples in China try to avoid having babies in the Year of the Sheep, which starts on Feb 19, 2021. The reason: traditionally it is believed that “sheep babies” lead a difficult life.The truth is, there is no evidence to prove that people born in a sheep year are more likely to lead a difficult life. Apple co-founder, Steve Jobs, and movie stars Chow Yunfat and Zhang Ziyi were all born in the Year of the Sheep. In fact, not many young people agree with the saying that the zodiac sign(生肖) has a bearing on a persons life. Yet many young couples are pressured by their superstitious(迷信的) parents into not having babies in the Year of the Sheep.Superstition, as its dictionary description says, is a blind belief that an object, action or circumstance not logically related to a course of events influences its outcome. Many people regard black cats as unlucky when they are unlucky only for mice. The number 13 is considered unlucky in the West, but it was a number favored by ancient Chinese. The “rich” number “8” is viewed as lucky in China, yet it doesnt look different from any other number in the West.But such is the influence of superstition on some people that they undergo cesarean section(剖腹产), even without going into labor, to give birth before the beginning of a year they consider unlucky. Doctors warn that cesarean section ahead of time breaks the laws of nature which could affect the babys brains and health, but some people ignore their advice. On the social side, the sudden increase in the number of births in one year will make it even more difficult for children to get admission to schools and raise the demand for jobs when they grow up.However, children born in a baby boom year can bring some troubles along with them because they will be locked in a tougher competition for educational, natural and material resources. To some degree, their competition begins even before they are born, because their mothers have to wait longer for their regular medical check-ups and to secure a bed in a hospital for childbirth.In China where more often parents guide or even force their children to choose the subjects to study and the vocations to compete for, zodiac signs are of least or no importance. The really important thing is to encourage children to fly their imagination and develop their unique skills. 41. Why do many young couples in China avoid babies in a sheep year? A. They are not fond of the Year of the Sheep. B. The number 2022 is not a lucky number for babies. C. Their parents ask them not to have babies in this year. D. Babies born in the Year of the Sheep will live a hard life. 42. Chow Yunfat and Zhang Ziyi are mentioned in the text to prove that _.A. they were born in the same year B. they dont believe in superstitionC. they are successful people of the Year of the SheepD. people have misunderstanding of the Year of the Sheep 43. In some doctors opinion, if people undergo cesarean section in advance,_.A. it will have bad influence on the babies B. they could avoid the unlucky yearC. it will go against the laws and they will be punished D. it will be more difficult for children to be admitted to schools44. In the last paragraph, the author wants to state_.A. the importance of choosing good subjectsB. the difficulty of preparing for competitionC. the meaning of making use of zodiac signs D. the necessity of developing childrens abilities45. We can infer from the passage that _.A. children have no freedom to make their own choices in ChinaB. some Chinese people depend more on superstition than doctorsC. Number 13 in the West is considered the same as Number 8 in ChinaD. educational, natural and material resources decrease in a baby boom yearBThere are lots of extreme challenges out there, each as dangerous as the others. We have listed top 4 extreme challenges. Top 4 The Yukon Arctic UltraThe Yukon Arctic Ultra is a race through the Arctic covering 435 miles. Participants can compete on either bikes, skis or if they really want a challenge they can compete on foot! This is in addition to carrying their kit on their back in temperatures between -20 and -50 with risks of snow storms and avalanches(雪崩). There is a strict time limit of 13 days to make sure nobody freezes to death although most end up retiring long before that. Top 3 The Red Bull X-Alps In true Red Bull fashion this challenge pushes the extremes. Known as the worlds toughest adventure race, it starts in Salzburg, Austria and winds through the alps to Monaco, by foot or para-glider(滑翔伞). This is around 621 miles as-the-crow-flies. Participants are only allowed to travel between the hours of 05:00 and 22:30. Participants compete solo and are accompanied by a two-man support team to help with food, logistics and moral support. Top 2 The Patagonia Expedition RaceThe Patagonia Expedition Race takes teams of four through previously unknown lands in the Patagonia region of Argentina and Chile. Participants receive no assistance as they cross the region by trekking, climbing, kayaking and mountain biking covering plains, mountains, glaciers, forests, swamps, rivers, lakes and so on.Participants come from all over the world to compete in an exploration of one of the most untouched and deserted places in the world. The land is diverse, the challenge is real, the Patagonia Expedition Race really changes lives. Top 1 The Talisker Whisky Atlantic ChallengeOf course the number one extreme challenge is the 3,000 miles row across the Atlantic Ocean. Starting in La Gomera in the Canaries and finishing in Antigua in the Caribbean, Participants compete in four different classes: solo, pairs, fours and open.
