Not long ago, President Xi Jinping, signed the presidential order to award Zhong Nanshan with the “the Medal of the Republic” and awarded Zhang Boli, Zhang Dingyu and Chen Wei with the honorary titles of “People’s Hero”. The CPC Central Committee has decided to recognize a number of advanced people and organizations in the fight against COVID-19. “They are the role models of all Chinese people and the heroes of the country and the people,” said a netizen. The spiritual home of the Chinese nation is highlighted by a large number of advanced examples in the fight against COVID-19.

Zhong Nanshan is one of them. At the age of 84, he could have rested, but he felt the responsibility was on his shoulders and he had to shoulder it. “Wearing this uniform, I should do everything for the country,” said Chen Wei.

And he led the medical team to treat thousands of patients.

People often think of the North Pole(北极) and the South Pole as similar frozen(冰冻的) wastelands. They are both places with very low temperatures and few people live there. However, the North and South Poles are not much alike as people may imagine.

The North Pole has no land, only thick ice. Temperatures seldom go above 32°F, at which water turns into ice. Most of the time, it stays below zero. In winter, temperatures are usually as low as －30°F.

Although conditions were very poor, people tried for many centuries to reach the North Pole. About 100 years ago, two men, Robert Peary and Mathew Henson, were able to get to this environment full of troubles and difficulties. They reached the North Pole on March 8th, 1909. It was really a hard trip for them.

There are few things more dangerous than crossing the Arctic(北极圈) on foot. People who stayed there may face many problems: very low temperatures, sudden storms, and even hunger. Most of the area is uninhabited. Few people can live in such a difficult place.

People might think that with such low temperatures for most of the year, the ice would be thick and hard. However, this is not true in the Arctic. The movement of the ocean water under the ice may often cause many different changes on the surface. Sometimes the ice breaks into two opening lanes of water(水道) called “leads”. Anyone who falls into a lead can be frozen to death in a few minutes.

31. According to the passage, what happened about 100 years ago?

 A. Two men succeeded in getting to the North Pole.

 B. Temperatures in the North Pole went above 32°F.

 C. The environment in the North Pole suddenly became worse.

32. What does the underlined word “uninhabited” probably mean?

 A. Dangerous.  B. Unlivable.  C. Difficult.

33. The reason for the ice to break into two opening lanes of water is _______.

 A. that the temperature suddenly drops

 B. that the water under the ice is frozen

 C. that the ocean water under the ice moves

34. What does this passage mainly talk about?

 A. The thick ice in the North Pole.

 B. The real situation in the North Pole.

 C. The differences between the North Pole and the South Pole.

35. This passage is probably from _______.

 A. a book review  B. a science book  C. a school report

第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)

阅读下面短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。每个选项仅使用一次。

A winter wonderland of words

Winter is coming! Every season brings people a special feeling, and winter is no exception.

36. __________________ Let’s take a look at a few of them.

Jack Frost nipping at your nose

You may have heard the phrase “Jack Frost nipping at your nose”. 37. __________________ Jack Frost is a playful spirit who appears in stories. He’s known for nipping at people’s noses and toes during winter, and then this expression was born.

Dead of winter

Winter is known as the season when many plants die and animals go to sleep until spring. The phrase “dead of winter” shows the middle part of the season, when it seems to be the coldest and darkest time of a year. 38. __________________ At this time, like in the dead of winter, there is typically not much activity going on.

39. __________________

In very cold places, icebergs can be found moving in the sea. Only a small part of these icebergs can be seen from above the water. Since it’s hard to tell how large icebergs actually are, many ships, including the famous Titanic, have hit them. This may have led to the phrase “the tip of the iceberg”, which means something is only a small part of a much bigger, unseen object.

40. __________________ Even in the dead of winter, these sayings are sure to develop your vocabulary!

Vince Brasco, a 19-year-old American man, is less than 1.3 meters tall, for he was born with a type of disease that affects bone growth. Still, he has been a volunteer fireman at his local fire department(消防部门) since he was 16 years old.

“I’ll never let my disease stop me from doing anything,” he told the reporter. “I just set my mind to something and do my best. It was my dream to be a fireman as a child, so I did it as soon as I was old enough to volunteer at 16.”

Although Brasco is only 87 pounds, he can lift 265 pounds. When there is a fire going, Brasco wears a special fire suit while on the job.

His greatest challenge was when a neighbor’s house caught fire last year.

“It was near my home, and I knew the family inside. I was outside and firing water in through a second-floor window,” he said. “It was the first time there was an accident about someone I knew and I was really worried.”

“Sadly, they lost their two German dogs in the fire, but all the people got out safe and I knew we did everything we could. I felt proud to be part of the team that saved them.”

41. Why is Vince Brasco short?

42. How long has Vince been a volunteer fireman?

43. What does Vince wear while he is working?

44. Did all the people and dogs manage to get out safe in the fire in Vince’s neighbor’s house?
