In it, Sawyers explained that she was feeling “some type of way” after her classmates had mean things to say after she wore her natural hair the day before. But she was determined not to let it bring her down, and wore it the same way the following day. “Don’t allow anyone to steal your joy,” Promise said. “Don’t give them that much power.”‎ Daugherty says that Promise has been surrounded by that type of positivity her whole life. She’s always taught her daughter to “meet a negative with a positive”, even when somebody is trying to bring her down. And although this example seems like one of the more disheartening( 令人气馁的) ones that Promise has faced after starting at a new school, her video proved that she took her mom’s advice to heart.‎ Now, nearly 2 million views later, people everywhere are responding to the video. “We had no idea the impact that it was going to make and the amount of messages,” Daugherty said. “It’s made a huge impact behind the scenes that has blessed me personally.”‎ Daugherty jokes that Promise doesn’t understand how influential her words are. Instead, the 10-year-old is just excited about the millions of views.‎ ‎“I just tell her not to focus on the numbers,” Daugherty says. “Let’s find a way we can be impactful behind this and make an influence and inspire people. That’s all we want.”‎ ‎24. What does the underlined word “afro” in Paragraph 1 refer to?‎ A. A hairstyle. B. A disability. C. An attitude. D. A video.‎ ‎25.

Keep wearing the same hair to school.‎ ‎26. What will Daugherty advise Promise to do when there’s something disheartening?‎ A. Switch to a new start. B. Look on the bright side.‎ C. Make necessary changes. D. Share her joy with others.‎ ‎27. How did Daugherty feel about people’s response to the video?‎ A. Embarrassed. B. Worried. C. Confused. D. Surprised.‎ C Many of us think, wrongly, that the moon doesn’t change. For example, the Tang Dynasty poet Zhang Ruoxu once wrote that “Generations have come and passed away; From year to year the moons took alike, old and new.”‎ However, a new study published in the journal Nature Geoscience shows that the moon is in fact slowly shrinking over time. For the study, a group of US scientists examined and analyzed thousands of photographs taken by the NASA orbiter Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (月球勘测轨道飞行器照相机) . They found that there were lots of faults (断层) on the surface of the ‎ moon. These faults were formed by recent movement on the moon.‎ According to NASA, the moon is made up of pieces of rocks with a hot core (核) .The moon continued to expand as it was born. But in this process, it released energy and cooled down. Then it began to shrink, in a way comparable to the shrinking of a grape into a raisin (葡萄干) . Over the past several hundred million years, it has become 46 meters “skinnier”. But due to its hard and rocky crust (外壳) . the moon’s surface continues to push up, “Some of these quakes can be fairly strong around five on the Richter scale (里氏震级 ) ,” said Thomas Watters, a senior scientist at the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum in the US.‎ But does that mean the moon is a dangerous place that human shouldn’t try to explore and live on in the future? Maybe not, reported the Telegraph, “This isn’t anything to worry about. The moon may be shrinking, but not by much. It’s not going anywhere,” Watters comforted us.‎ The new discovery proves that the idea that the moon is a dead, boring place is wrong. “We have been to the moon and we’ve done some great science, but there is still a lot we don’t know. The moon is shrinking — we didn’t really realize that until recently. It’s a much more active and interesting place than we thought and we should explore that,” NASA scientist Nathan Williams said.‎ ‎28. Which point of view about the moon may the writer agree to?‎ A. It stays the same as before. B. It is becoming lightly smallers.‎ C. It is getting older and older. D. It has passed away.‎ ‎29. What can we learn about the moon from the third paragraph?‎ A. It has become 46 meters fatter due to expanding.‎ B. It has changed from a grape into a raisin in recent years.‎ C. It quakes even at seven on the Richter scale.‎ D. It has a hot core and releases energy during expanding.‎ ‎30. Who thinks that we needn’t worry about the moon?‎ A. Zhang Ruoxu. B. Thomas Watters. C. Nathan Williams. D. The journalist.‎ ‎31. What does Nathan Williams think of the moon?‎ A. It is a dead and boring place. B. It has lots of faults on the surface.‎ C. It is valuable to do more science. D. It isn’t a place where we can live.‎ D Take a walk through Washington and you’ll find plenty of marble memorials(纪念碑). But is that what the future of the memorial-rich city holds? If the winners of a new design competition have their way, probably not.‎ The Memorials for the Future design competition invited submissions (意见书) from teams throughout the world. Though, the memorials selected won’t actually be built in the city, they were intended to start a discussion about how to think of memorials in a very different future.‎ Climate Chronograph, the winning project by Team Azimuth Land Craft, greatly departs from memorials as we know them. The project memorializes the harmful effects of climate change by suggesting a memorial at Hains Point, a spot between the Potomac River and Washington Channel. Just 100 years ago, the man-made island was part of the river. It came into existence after the National Park Service decided to turn the confluence(合流点) of the waters into a tidal basin to protect the nearby National Mall from floods.‎ Those floods are expected to come more and more often as the climate changes. Climate Chronograph will memorialize those changes by planting cherry trees as a kind of tidal gauge(潮位计) that can be used by future visitors to determine just how much water levels have risen.‎ The other winning projects include a project that frees mechanical parrots that fly over the Jefferson Memorial and collect and retell stories about monuments，a podcast (播客) platform that puts immigrant stories on public transportation, and an interactive memorial that brings national parks to the D. C. Metro. The competition also produced a report that points to ways America can better memorialize the things that matter—strategies that could help cities save money and space.‎ That’s good news, especially given that D. C. ’s iconic Mall has been closed to new construction. The memorials of the future won’t just turn collective memories toward the stories of new phenomena and groups like climate change and immigrants. Rather, it seems that they’ll make use of space in new creative ways—no marble needed.‎ ‎32. What is the purpose of the design competition?‎ A. To select the best design team. ‎ B. To find new uses for old memorials.‎ C. To design new memorials for Washington. ‎ D. To explore new ways of experiencing memorials.‎ ‎33. What can be used to replace the underlined word “departs” in Paragraph 3?‎ A. Differs B. Benefits C. Suffers D. Learns ‎34. What do we know about Climate Chronograph?‎ A. It will be located in a park.‎ B. It will be built after the competition.‎ C. It clearly shows the effects of climate change.‎ D. It uses high-tech equipment to measure climate change.‎ ‎35. What would be the best title for the text?‎ A. A memorial to a sad future. ‎ B. Marble memorials are out of date.‎ C. Climate Chronograph, memorial for our future. ‎ D. What will the memorials of the future look like?‎ 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。‎ Who can forget their first day of school?
