第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分) 第一节(共15小题; 每小题2分,共30分)
请阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项的标号涂黑。
A
The convenience store in school is a place where many students enjoy a snack and a chat.
However, it may become a thing of the past. China's educational and health authorities have forbidden convenience stores in all primary, middle and high schools across the country. The new rule has come into effect (开始实施)since April 1, 2019.
The new rule caused heated discussions. Many students were sad about it. “Without convenience stores, our school life will be less interesting,” said Fang, a student from a senior high school. “We won't be able to have different delicious
drinks or desserts.” However, many parents expressed different opinions about it. The father of a junior school student said that “cheap, unhealthy snacks sold at these stores are harmful to children’s health.” “Students rushed to shops to buy snacks as soon as a class was over, which influenced the normal teaching,” he added.
The rule replies to food health concerns at public schools and is to meet the health needs of students, The Beijing News reported. It also requires schools to help students follow a healthy diet.
And in fact many foreign countries have their own ways to make students eat healthily. Many parents in Australia volunteer in schools, sometimes in school dining rooms. These parents, at least, do their best to see that their children are served healthy food. In Japan, primary and junior high school students eat lunch in their classrooms, where they learn about diet and Japan’s food culture. They also take turns serving meals to each other, cleaning up, and recycling. 21. In the past, the school convenience store could A. help parents serve students B. help teachers manage students C. provide students with a chatting place D. provide physical exercise for students
22. The new rule is mainly made to A. keep students healthy B. cut down education costs C. make parents less worried about their kids D. let school dining rooms make more money
23. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Students should bring healthy lunch to school. B. Parents should work as volunteers in schools.
C. Many countries make efforts to make students eat healthily. D. Other countries are facing different problems of food safety.

A Tanzanian woman named Hadhara Charles Mjeje is travelling around Africa, showing her soccer skills as a way to feed her family. Her soccer short videos have received a lot of attention on social media.
Mjeje started working on her ball movement, or juggling (颠球),skills when she was growing up in Tanzania. Mjeje hits the ball with her feet, head and upper body, but not her hands. For many years, she has played for a local women’s soccer team.
For the past six years, Mjeje, a 29-year-old single mother of two boys, has been using her special juggling skills to help her support them. She asks for $4 for a two-minute performance, and she earns between $45 and $50 a day.
So far, Mjeje has been to Cameroon, Burundi, Gabon and Malawi to give her performances. In Malawi, her skills got the attention of the country’s National Women’s Football officials, who were interested in bringing her into their women's soccer development program, but Mjeje refused the offer. “It’s a regret,” said an official. Sugzo Ngwira, the head of the Women’s Football Committee in Central Malawi, said that if Mjeje was ready to use her skills with other players, her organization would explore ways to work with Mjeje.
Mjeje’s skills have caught the interest of male soccer players, too. Samuel
Zeka plays soccer in Malawi’s capital, Lilongwe. He said it was a rare talent for women to juggle the ball as she did, “I will be very grateful if she teaches me such skills,” Zeka added. Mjeje returned to Tanzania in March, after an agent traveled to Malawi to meet her. The agent wanted to share the possibility of signing an advertising contract (合向)that could earn her a lot of money in Spain with her. Mjeje said she hoped the new contract would mark the beginning of a better life. 24. Mjeje is a soccer player who _________.

For most people, completing the “Explorers Grand Slam,” which requires climbing the Seven Summits — the highest mountain in each of the seven continents — and reaching the North and South Poles, would be a great enough achievement. However, it was not so for American explorer and adventurer Victor Vescbvo, who completed the challenge in 2017. Since December 2018, the 54-year-old former US naval (海军的)officer has been on a new quest (探索)—to become the first person to take a manned submersible (载人潜水艇)to the deepest-known point in each of the world’s five oceans.
On April 28, 2019, the adventurer came one step closer to achieving his goal when he fell 10,928 meters (35,853 feet) aboard Limiting Factor, a 15-foot-long, 12-foot-high submersible, to the Earth’s deepest known point — the Challenger Deep. In addition to establishing a new world record for the deepest human dive, Vescovo also became the first person in the world to reach the highest (Mt. Everest) and lowest (Challenger Deep) points of the planet.
However, that was not the adventurer’s only visit to the Challenger Deep. Vescovo returned to the area three more times in the next eight days and on May 7, 2019,he became the first human to fall to the Sirena Deep, and collect the deepest piece of mantle rock ever recovered. While the first two visits were paid alone, during the final visit, Vescovo was accompanied (陪伴)by another member of his crew
(全体海员).“It is almost indescribable how excited all of us are about achieving what we just did,” said Vescovo.
The American explorer has his sights set on space. He said, “No one has done the so-called trifecta (三连胜)——the top and bottom of the world and space. For me, that would mean getting to the Karman Line, 100 km above Earth. I’d love to see the sunrise from there. I think that would be lovely.” 28. What did Victor Vescovo achieve in 2017?
A. He completed the “Explorers Grand Slam”. B. He dived to the Earth’s deepest-known point. C. He discovered a new species in the oceans. D. He became a US naval officer.
29. Victor Vescovo is the first person in the world to_______,
A. complete the “Explorers Grand Slam”
B. reach the Earth’s highest and lowest points C. explore the highest point in the world
D. stay for the longest time in the deepest area of the ocean 30. How many times has Victor Vescovo been to the Challenger Deep?
A. Twice. B. Three times. C. Four times. D. Five times. 31. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A. Victor Vescovo’s next goal. B. Victor Vescovo’s hobbies. C. Something about trifecta. D. Difficulties Vescovo will face.
