18、the same, the youngster from Arequipa, Peru, came up with the idea of an eco-bank, which allows kids of all ages to become economically independent while also helping the environment.

The money received is placed in the individuals account where they collect until his/her savings goal is reached. The account holder can then withdraw(取出)his/

20、 her money, or choose to leave it and continue to save for a bigger goal.“At the beginning, my teachers thought I was crazy or that a child could not do this type of project,” Jose recalls.

21、of the president of my school.”Joses efforts paid off, and by 2013, the Bartselana Student Bank had over 200 members who collectively brought in one ton of recyclable waste. Today, the eco-bank has the support of several local organizations. On November 20, 2018, Jose won the Childrens Climate Prize

22、.“Joses eco-bank is a good way of linking the economy and climate change, both in thought and practice. The system clearly suggests that we must recycle the products that we no longer use,” a judge said. “This way caring about the environment becomes an investment (投资). A system that gives children

23、both economic independence and the power to influence the climate.”Hopefully, Joses success will inspire more kids and adults to come up with new ideas that create value while helping the environment.24.

We can hear music everywhere: in the streets and at home, over the radio and on TV, in the shops and in the parks. People all over the world are fond

27、of music. They listen to music, they dance to music, and they learn to play musical instruments.Music isnt only a combination of pleasant sounds. It is an art which reflects(反映)life. There are a lot of different kinds of music. Some of them appeared long ago, and some are modern. Folk music appeared

28、 long ago, but it is still alive. Folk songs are very pleasant to listen to. Classical music is often associated with the music of the past. Rap (说唱)is a modern musical style where the singer speaks or shouts the words in time to music with a steady(稳定的)beat.Great Britain has produced more popular m

29、usic stars than any other country. British groups often set new trends(潮流)in music. New styles, groups and singers continue to appear. Many of the new bands have been able to use changes in technology to develop their music such as computerized drum machines, synthesizers and other electronic instru

30、ments.Tastes differ. So peoples musical interests range from pop and rock music to classical music and opera. My favourite style of music is pop music, because it is full of energy. When I listen to pop music it makes me remember happy times and forget the problems of everyday life. I also enjoy lis

31、tening to classical music. The music I hate is heavy metal. I find it noisy. When I listen to this style of music, it presents to my mind pictures of dark days. My mother and father agree with my tastes in music. Though they prefer to listen to classical, they think that modern music is not too bad.

32、Music appeals to our hearts. It comforts our souls and enriches(充实)our minds. Music is beauty in sounds; it is our magic source of inspiration.28. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A.

34、rong.D. It sounds energetic.31. What is the authors parents attitude towards his musical taste? A. Doubtful.B. Supportive. C. Dissatisfied.D. Unconcerned. D Love is hard to find, and when you do find it you want to keep it for as long as possible. In the pursuit (追寻)of lasting love, Barbra Streisand

35、 seems to have kicked a hornets (大黄蜂的) nest of criticism. The 75-year-old singer, actress, and director had often been photographed in the company of her dog, Samantha. Streisand said that she now has two new dogs who are clones of her well-loved Samantha.When I first read this story, I felt an imme

36、diate wave of the same feeling as Streisand has. I was faced with a similar situation not too long ago, when my dog, Dancer, died on his 16th birthday. He was a wonderful companion so his loss was hard to deal with. So I finally got a new little dog of the same breed as Dancer. This dog, Ranger, is

37、a close enough match to fill that emotional gap(情感空缺) in my life. If you are as rich as Barbra Streisand, then you can afford the $50,000 that it costs to clone your companion through a company like ViaGen Pets, based in Texas. However, the clones are not the same dog as the original. The personalit

38、y of each dog is shaped by its environment, its experiences, and the person who owns and lives with the dog.What I suppose surprised me most was the firestorm of criticism of Streisand put forward by the animal rights organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). It said that her

39、act of cloning her dog was a terrible example. PETA said in a statement, When you consider that millions of wonderful adoptable dogs are dying in terrifying ways, you realize that cloning adds to the homeless-animal population crisis(危机).”Barbra Streisand said, You can clone the look of a dog, but y

40、ou cant clone its spirit. Still, every time I look at their faces, I think of my Samanth.and smile.”32. What does the underlined sentence in the first paragraph mean?A.

He failed to get over the loss of his pet.34. What can we infer about pet cloning according to PETAs statement?

42、A. It may influence the adoption of homeless animals.B. It may have bad effects on cloned animals.C. It serves as a good solution to losing pets.D. It can contribute to the local economy.35. What did Barbra Streisand say about her cloned dogs?A. They are just short-term companions.B. They bring back

43、 heartbroken memories.C. They make her think of Samantha and feel happy.D. They share the same personalities as her original dog.第二节（共5小题；每题2.5分，满分12.5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。Business etiquette in SingaporeBe polite, professional and patient at all times.
