But he wanted to do something to keep himself busy,so he decided to volunteer at the local children hospital.My dad loved kids.He would talk to them and play with them.Sometimes,he would lose one of the kids.In certain cases,he would give comfortto the sad parents of these children. ‎ One of his kids was a girl with a raredisease that paralyzed(使……瘫痪)her from the neck down.My dad decided to help her.He started visiting her in her room,bringing paints,brushes and paper.He stood the paper up against a backing,put the paintbrush in his mouth and began to paint.He didn’t use his hands at all.Only his head would move.He would visit her whenever he could paint for her.All the while he would tell her,“See,you can do anything you set your mind to.” ‎ Eventually, she began to paint using her mouth, and she and my dad became friends. Soon after, the little girl was discharged(允许出院). My dad also left the children hospital for a little while because he became ill. Some time later after my dad had recovered and returned to work, he was at the volunteer counter one day and noticed the front door open. In came the little girl who had been paralyzed, but this time she was walking. She ran straight to my dad and hugged him really tightly. She gave my dad a picture she had done using her hands. At the bottom it read, “Thank you for helping me walk.” ‎ ‎24. Why did the writer’s dad volunteer at the local children hospital?‎ A. To forget his illness by keeping busy. B. To spent his spare time by working.‎ C. To work as the father of the children.        D. To have a chat with the poor children.‎ ‎25.How did the author’s dad help the girl according to paragraph 2?‎ A. By persuading her to cheer up.                 B. By painting for her with his mouth.   ‎ C. By bringing her much tasty food. D. By telling interesting jokes to her.‎ ‎26. What do we know from the text?‎ A.

This motorcyclecan take off vertically（垂直地）from the grassland or a street and land on the other side of the city in a similar position. This idea has always been treated like science fiction.‎ At some point, the Speeder could be adapted to use electric energy, which is more environmentally friendly, but for now, Mayman said, no battery cells come close to the speed and potential power created by jet engines. Besides, like other developing similar craft, currently the Speeder will only be used for recreation and sport until laws and regulations begin to change in America. ‎ Mayman argued that there was a large role for the Speeder to play in both civilian and military life. He said his company has been working for several years to develop a jet pack that could be used by Special Forces soldiers. As their cost continued to increase, he said, engineers began designing a personal aircraft that eventually turned into the Speeder.‎ Mayman said that the aircraft could be used to transport heavy loads or move soldiers on and off the battlefield, especially in areas too dangerous for helicopters. Unlike other flying vehicles, the craft is small enough to sit on the back of a boat or can be easily delivered by a common fighting vehicle. ‎ 28. What can we infer about the Speeder according to paragraph 1?‎ A.It can fly 150 miles without stop. B.It is created by several companies.‎ C.It has already appeared in markets. D.It can land on a school playground.‎ ‎29.What limits the use of the Speeder at present?‎ A.The financial crisis. B.The government policy. ‎ C.The bad environment. D.The technology development.‎ ‎30.What was the Speeder first intended for?‎ A.Sports games. B. Military force. ‎ C. Electrical engineering. D. Public transportation.‎ ‎31.What advantage does the Speeder have when compared to other flying vehicles?‎ A.Its high speed to move heavy loads. B.Its potential to use electric energy.‎ C.Its ability to replace helicopters. D.Its small size that makes it convenient.‎ D ‎50 kilometers outside the capital of Malaysia, in the middle of a palm plantation(种植园), ‎ mountains of plastic waste lie abandoned. Much of it has come from wealthy countries in Europe and North America. ‎ Local residents are suffering the consequences. “Tons of non-recyclable plastic is just dumped（倾倒）here every day, and then workers burn it in the backyard of this factory. So, those harmful smog actually already caused many health problems to the residents”. People living around the factory showed great anxiety. ‎ In 2017, China banned the import of plastic waste, sending the global industry into turmoil. “Wealthy countries are exporting their own plastic waste overseas”, says Greenpeace. “They have a good collection of facilities to recycle their own plastic waste. However, they are still sending half of their collective waste to other countries.” Before the ban, they just ran to China for recycling. And now they just find other new places to send their recyclables to. ‎ The Greenpeace report says more than half of that waste, three million tons a year, is being redirected(转向) toward Southeast Asia, including Malaysia, Vietnam and Thailand. The problem is that these countries have no ability to handle such a large amount of imported foreign waste, which can easily cause pollution to the local environment. In response, many Southeast Asian countries are putting more restrictions on plastic waste imports, forcing the rubbish into less controlled markets, such as Indonesia and India. ‎ At a United Nations conference, 180 countries are discussing a suggestion that plastic waste exporters should ask for permission in advance from the countries that will receive the waste. But ecologists from the University of Texas stated, “Changes can’t come soon enough.”They added, “‘We are killing ourselves by using too much plastic.’ ‘We are too dependent on plastic…’ ‘Please manage and handle your own rubbish.’ Such voices would not stop in the near future…” Greenpeace also concludes that the best solution does not lie in improving, recycling, but in greatly reducing plastic production and consumption worldwide. ‎ ‎32. What made the local residents anxious?‎ A. Health problems caused by plastic waste. B. The abandoned palm plantation.‎ C. The burning backyard of the factory. D. Tons of non-recyclable plastic.‎ ‎33. What does the underlined word “turmoil” in paragraph 3 probably mean?‎ A. Boom. B. Disorder. C. Development. D.Promotion.‎ ‎34. What can we infer from the last paragraph?‎ A. Developing countries lack enough facilities.‎ B. Developed countries will take action soon.‎ C. The situation of plastic waste is very terrible.‎ D. There are practical ways to handle plastic waste.‎ ‎35. What’s the main idea of the text?‎ A. Plastic waste caused serious results. B. People are too dependent on plastic.‎ C. China banned importing plastic waste. D. Plastic waste is a concern of the world.‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ How to Prepare for a Hike Hiking is a very unique way of traveling.
