2．What do you usually do when a flying insect lands on your arm？Most likely you blow it away.But what if that bug were a ladybug（瓢蟲(chóng)）？Then chances are that you would let it stay.What is it about ladybugs that we like？
Farmers once thought ladybugs were a good luck sign.A Ladybug in the field meant that the crops（莊稼）would be successful and the weather would be good.The farmers may have been exaggerating（夸大）about what a very small bug can do，but in fact ladybugs do help out with the crops.They eat harmful insects.
Actually，it is not the adult ladybug that eats the other insects.It's the ladybug larvae（幼蟲(chóng)）.Ladybugs lay their eggs on the leaves that are covered with aphids or other insects.When the larvae come out of the eggs，they are very hungry and will eat mites，aphids，mealybugs，green flies，and other crop-destroyers.
A single ladybug larvae can eat over 1，000 aphids in one day.In the 1800s，ladybugs were brought all the way from Australia to California and set free among orange trees that were dying from being eaten by insects.The little red and black "eating machines" completely saved all the trees.
Ladybugs go about their daily business without worrying much about anything.Very few birds or insects will eat a ladybug because it gives off something that is dangerous to eat.Ladybugs also protect themselves by playing dead.They fall of leaves and remain very still until their enemy goes away.
So next time you see a ladybug，think about what it may be up to.Maybe it is off to save an orange tree.Maybe its next move will be to fall off a leaf and play dead or stand up to a bird about 100 times its size.Maybe it's letting you know that the weather will be good tomorrow.Who knows？Ladybugs are special that way.
（1）What do we know about mites and aphids？
A．They do harm to the crops.
B．They eat more than they should.
C．They are good for adult ladybug.
D．They are the enemy of ladybug larvae.
（2）What does the underlined part "stand up to" in the last paragraph probably mean？
A．Play with.
B．Worry about.
C．Get along with.
D．Fight back against.
（3）What does the author think of the ladybug？
A．It is a crop-destroyer.
B．It is a good luck sign.
C．It is a little flying helper.
D．It is a big eating machine.組卷：0引用：1難度：0.7 -
3．On Tuesday，the Amazon Company introduced Amazon One，which connects your palm（手掌）print to a stored credit card so you can place your hand above a sensor to enter and leave easily after buying at checkout-free Amazon （AMZN） Go stores.
Dilip Kumar，Amazon's vice president told CNN Business that Amazon One had been used since long before the COVID-19.But the timing could be a positive for Amazon：Customers may find such payment convenient，and businesses also find it hopeful.
Yet the use of the Amazon One could raise eyebrows，too.Amazon has once come under fire from people who care about its facial-recognition software.When it comes to Amazon One data，Kumar said all palm pictures are coded and Amazon stores them online.
"I encourage people to try it，see how they like the experience，" Kumar said.You can hold your palm above an Amazon One scanner to enter the store.Then，anything you take will be automatically（自動(dòng)地）charged to the credit card connected to their palm.Amazon One will make shopping faster and more convenient.Before trying it，users must place a credit card in an Amazon One device and hold a palm above it，facing down，so it can be scanned.The camera in it takes many pictures of the fine lines of the palm，and catches some details，which can't be seen in typical photographs.
Amazon One now can be bought at two of the Amazon Go stores in Seattle，at 7th Avenue and Blanchard Street，and in the South Lake Union neighborhood.
（1）Why is Amazon One introduced？
A．To ensure the safety.
B．To have a test.
C．Too see credit cards.
D．To pay easily.
（2）Which of the following best explains "under fire" in paragraph 3？
A．Being quite hot.
B．Receiving ill comments.
C．Getting on fire.
D．Gaining wide recognition.
（3）Which of the following is not true about Amazon One？
A．It was not used until the outbreak of COVID-19.
B．It is convenient for customers.
C．It connects the credit card to one's palm.
D．Its device takes the pictures of the palm.
（4）What was Kumar's attitude to Amazon One？
A．Doubtful.
B．Objective.
C．Supportive.
D．Unclear.組卷：6引用：4難度：0.7

9．閱讀以下短文，根據(jù)所給情節(jié)進(jìn)行續(xù)寫(xiě)，使之構(gòu)成一個(gè)完整的故事。
In a certain store where they sell puddings，a number of these delicious things are laid out in a row during the Christmas season.Here you may select the one which is most to your taste，and you are even allowed to sample them before coming to a decision.
I have often wondered whether some people，who had no intention of making a purchase，would take advantage of this privilege.One day I asked this question to the shop girl，and I learned it was indeed the case.
"Now there's one old gentleman，for instance，" she told me， "he comes here almost every week and samples each one of the puddings，though he never buys anything，and I suspect he never will.I remember him from last year before that，too.Well，let him come if he wants it，and welcome to it."
She was still speaking when an elderly gentleman limped（跛行）up to the counter and began looking closely at the row of puddings with great interest.
"Why，that's the very gentleman I've been telling you about，" whispered the shop girl. "Just watch him now." And then turning to him， "Would you like to sample them，sir？Here's spoon for you to use."
The elderly gentleman，who was poorly but neatly dressed，accepted the spoon and began eagerly to sample one after another of the puddings，only braking off occasionally to wipe his red eyes with a large torn handkerchief.
"This is quite good."
"This is not bad either，but a little too heavy."
All the time it was quite evident that he sincerely believed that he might eventually buy one of these puddings，and I am positive that he did not for a moment feel that he was in any way cheating the store.Poor old chap!Probably he had come down in the world and this sampling was all that was left him from the time when he could afford to come and select his favorite pudding.
注意：
1.所續(xù)寫(xiě)短文的詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
2.續(xù)寫(xiě)部分分為兩段，每段的開(kāi)頭語(yǔ)已為你寫(xiě)好；
Paragraph 1：
In a burst of benevolence（善舉），I went up to him and said： "Pardon me，sir，would you mind me purchasing you one of these things？"

Paragraph 2：
The girl started to make a parcel of it，while he pulled out a worn little black pocketbook.
