My grandma came over to look after me when I was young. Laughter always filled the tiny but warm house. Watching grandma in the kitchen was amazing: she walked around the kitchen, busy but happy. She never seemed to need the recipes (食谱) and everything she made tasted delicious.

At first I would just sit in the kitchen and watch. Even though I didn’t understand what she was doing, I really enjoyed watching her and waiting for the cakes. As I got older, she let me help with the easy parts, such as measuring (测量) the sugar. The day I helped her bake (烘焙) cakes, I felt like I found complete pleasure.

Later my parents decided that I could take care of myself and my grandmother stopped coming over every day. The love of baking, however, stayed with me. I started baking by myself, and even if the cookies ended up burnt sometimes. More often they turned out pretty good. I tried out new recipes, and whenever I got to a thorny part, I would call my grandmother for advice and she would always give lots of useful advice patiently. Sometimes I would call her just to talk, too. I felt like I could talk to her about anything.

My grandmother passed away three years ago, but I still think of her sometimes. Last week, I found a recipe book she made for me in her bedroom. It included her recipes for cakes, cookies and my favorite, lemon pie. As I looked through the pages, I thought I could hear her voice and see her smile. She was the one who taught me not only about baking, but about life.

24．While helping her grandmother bake, the writer _______.

A．turned out to be a troublemaker       B．found it interesting and attractive

C．hoped to make a living by baking       D．regretted missing the schoolwork

25．The underlined word “thorny” in Paragraph 3 most probably means “_______”.

A．wonderful       B．special       C．dangerous       D．difficult

26．From the recipe book the writer found last week, we can infer that her grandmother _______.

A．knew the writer’s taste well       B．taught the writer how to read

C．wanted to sell the recipe for money       D．thought the writer was unable to bake

C

It seems food deliverymen (送货员) are always in a hurry. They wear blue, red or yellow helmets and many of them don’t follow traffic rules. They drive on the wrong side of the road and run red lights. They use mobile phones while driving. These reckless (鲁莽的) behaviors have caught the public’s attention.

In the first half of 2017, food deliverymen had 76 traffic accidents in Shanghai, according to Shanghai Public Security Bureau. That means every two and a half days, a food deliveryman will die or get hurt on the road.

What makes deliverymen take such risks? The strict rules of the food delivery service companies and the anxious (焦急的) customers may be the answer.

Many companies will fine a deliveryman up to 2,000 yuan, if he fails to deliver an order on time, reported China Daily. Fines also go to those who get bad reviews from customers.

To solve the problem, food delivery service companies need to improve their incentive systems (激励制度), noted CRI Online.

Some cities are also taking action. Shanghai has asked companies to train their deliverymen on traffic rules and safety. Now in Shenzhen, if a deliveryman gets caught breaking traffic rules more than twice, then he will be banned from driving food service delivery vehicles (交通工具) for a whole year .

27．How many traffic accidents did food deliverymen in Shanghai cause in the first half of 2017?

A．76.       B．38.       C．152.       D．2, 000.

28．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A．It’s a pity that all food deliverymen don’t follow traffic rules.

B．If a deliveryman can’t deliver an order on time, he will be fined up to 200 yuan.

C．It matters a lot to a deliveryman if he gets bad reviews from customers.

D．The deliveryman isn’t allowed to send food for a whole year if he breaks traffic rules more than twice.

29．What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

A．Companies are improving their review systems.

B．Some cities are working to improve the situation.

C．To drive safely, food deliverymen will obey more traffic rules.

D．Food deliverymen cannot drive on important roads in the future.

The other day, my sister and I were sitting in the restaurant, trying to have a conversation, but her children, four-year-old Willow and seven-year-old Luca, would not stop fighting. The arguments—over a fork, or who had more water in a glass—never stopped.

Then my sister reached into her handbag, produced two shiny iPads, and handed one to each child. Suddenly, the two were quiet. They sat playing games and watching videos, and we continued with our conversation.

After our meal, as my sister stuffed the iPads back into her bag, she said, “I don’t want to give them the iPads at the dinner table, but if they keep them occupied for an hour so we can eat in peace, I often just hand them over. I am afraid that it’s bad for them. I do worry that it makes them think it’s OK to use electronics at the dinner table in the future. ”

Dr. Gary Small, director of the Longevity Center at the University of California, Los Angeles says that the brain is highly sensitive to stimuli （刺激物）, like iPads and smartphone screen, and if people spend too much time on one technology, and less time interacting （互动）with people like parents at the dinner table, that could prevent the development of certain communication skills.

“Conversations with each other are the way children learn to have conversations with themselves, and learn how to be alone,” said Sherry Turkle, a professor of science, technology and society at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She fears that children who do not learn real interactions, which often have imperfections, will come to know a world where perfect, shiny screens give them a false sense of intimacy （亲密）without risk. However, they need to be able to gather themselves and know who they are. So someday they can form a relationship with another person without a panic（恐慌）of being alone. “If you don’t teach your children to be alone, they will only know how to be lonely,” she said.

30．What did Willow and Luca fight about?

A．Little things.       B．iPads.       C．Delicious food.       D．Interesting things.

31．According to Dr. Small, what should parents do?

A．Provide their children with various technologies.       B．Teach their children communication skills.

C．Limit their children’s screen time.       D．Talk to their children at the dinner table.

32．What is Sherry Turkle worried?

A．Children are afraid of taking risks.       B．Children try to escape from the real world.

C．Children can’t deal with situations with few friends.       D．Children can’t live without electronic devices.

More Chinese universities are opening their libraries to the public, allowing people to enjoy reading during normal time and the vacations.

____33____Wang Ling, a student in Sun Yat-sen University is one of them. “Members of the public come to our libraries more for sightseeing than reading,” said Wang. “They sometimes even bring their kids along, and take photos as if it were a place of interest.” ____34____ Being short of space is a common problem for university libraries in China.

However, this is not the only reason why students dislike their libraries being open to members of the public. ____35____ Chen Jie, 18, a student in Tongji University, is one who would be against opening to the public. “I have been to a public library before. People were chatting loudly or speaking on cell phone so you can hardly read,” Chen said. She notices teachers doing serious reading and feels their concentration has influenced her. “If too many strangers stay here, the whole library will be a noisy place and it’s difficult for us to study quietly,” she said.

____36____ Some experts consider that university libraries can prevent the public from entering certain areas. “We might keep magazines for academic research only for teachers and students,” said Zhu Lina, library director in Jinan University.

____37____ “It’s possible that a member of the public can order a book in our library over the Internet,” Ge Jianxiong, the library director in Fudan University said. “We’ll send it to a public libraries close to their home.”

A．Will there be other ways to share those libraries?

B．Wang has found it hard to get a seat during busy times.

C．Opening the libraries means a lot to middle school students.

D．But for some students, this practice has caused headaches.

E．The government has planned to build more libraries in the city.

F．Working together with the community library is another solution.

G．They fear that the quietness of the libraries will be influenced.

There was once a company in the United States that announced that it would offer a large amount of money to anyone who could find a white marigold (金盏花). It is known that most marigolds ___48___ (be) either golden or brown, so it is very hard to find a white one.

The woman was a fan of flowers. When she first heard the ___50___ (company) announcement 20 years ago, she got very excited. She thought she could grow her own white marigolds.

Still, she worked to make it happen. She planted some common marigold seeds and took good care ___52___ them.

____57____ (final), after 20 years, she went out to her garden and found a marigold that was not just white—it was as white as the purest snow.
