10、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One day a man saw an old lady, standing on the side of the road, but even in the poor light of day, he could see she needed help. So he pulled up in front of her car and got out.
Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn't look safe; he looked poor and hungry. He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He said,"I'm here to help you, ma'am. Why don't you wait in the car where it's warm? By the way, my name is BryanAnderson."
Well, all she had was a flat tire(爆胎), but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Bryan checked under the car looking for a tool. Soon he was able to change the tire. As he was tightening up the lug nuts(螺帽), she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was only just passing through. She couldn't thank him enough for coming to her aid. The lady asked how much she should pay him. Any amount would have been all right with her. Bryan never thought twice about being paid. This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were plenty, who had given him a hand in the past. He told her, "If you really wanted to pay me back, next time you see someone in need, give them a hand."It had been a cold and cheerless day, but he felt good as he headed for home.
A few miles down the road the lady saw a small café. She went in to grab a bite to eat. It was a dirty-looking restaurant. The lady noticed the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant(怀孕的), but she had a sweet smile, one that even being on her feet for the whole day couldn't erase.

The waitress came over and brought a clean towel to dry her wet hair.

I just got a parcel from home! It took about two weeks ( arrive), and it was a bit damaged, but it was so nice to get some sweets and jam from home; I've been dying to have some of my favourite sweets, and it's always nice to get mail.
So I've been here in the jungle for about a month now. My secondary school is a bush school. The classrooms are made of bamboo, clay floors and roofs of grass. It takes me only a few minutes to walk to school down a dusty track (cover) in weeds. When Ireach the school grounds, I'm greeted by a chorus of"good morning"from the boys. Unlike students in our country, these boys do not wear cotton uniforms, and many of (they)also have to walk a long way, sometimes for up to two hours, just to get to school.
There's no electricity, running water or even textbooks. All the students have are pencils, rubbers, and paper. I'm still trying to adap t to these (condition). I've had to become much more (imagine) in my teaching. Science is my most (challenge)subject as my students have no concept of doing experiments. There is no equipment, and since there isn't even washroom, if I need water I have to carry it from my house in a basin! It's important not to be too rigid about rules here, too. The other day I was showing the boys a chemistry experiment when, before I knew it, the mixture was bubbling out of the test tube spilling everywhere! The class (become) a circus as the boys, had never come across anything like this before, started jumping out of the windows.

19、阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
City parks and open space improve our physical and mental health, strengthen our communities, and make our cities and neighbourhoods more attractive places to live and work..
In Boulder, Colorado, a greenbel t added $5.4 million to the total property values of one neighbourhood. Other things being equal, there was a $4.20 decrease in the price of property for every foot one moved away from the greenbelt, and the average value of homes next to the greenbelt was 32% percent higher than those 3,200 feet away.
Parks attract tourists. As community landmarks, parks offer a marketing tool for cities to attract businesses and conferences. Parks can be used to hold festivals, concerts and athletics events, bringing additional boosts to the local economy.
Green space provides rich ecosystem services. The U. S. Forest Service found that over a 50-year lifetime, one tree produces $31,250 worth of oxygen, provides $62,000worth of air pollution control, recycles $37,500 worth of water, and controls $31,250worth of soil erosion(流失).
A park's trees store water, reducing the rate at which it flows into a city's stormwater treatment facilities. Parks increase the amount of a city's pervious surfaces, which allow rainwater to pass slowly into the ground. .
A. Your local city park may improve your health.
B. Homebuyers prefer homes close to parks and open space.
C. It makes a great contribution to the improvement of our living environment.
D. They help fill hotel rooms and bring customers to local stores and restaurants.
E. Building facilities to deal with that amount of stormwa ter would cost $38 million.
F. Lots of studies have shown all kinds of benefits parks bring to a city and its people.
G. Having trees and parks can decrease the necessary size of the city's stormwater management system.

20、阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
When we talk about plastic rubbish polluting the earth, we don't often talk about the environmental impacts caused by fast-food packaging. Actually, this packaging is often coated with environmentally damaging chemicals. Recently researchers from Flinders University andGerman biomaterials developer, one·five, have started using seaweed(海草) to solve the packaging waste problem of the fast-food industry.
Using seaweed to create sustainable alternatives to existing products isn't a new concept.The idea of turning seaweed into a material to replace bubble wrap(气泡膜包装) was put forward more than seven years ago. This time, the Flinders University materials researchers and one · five are using seaweed extracts(提取物) to develop next-generation coating materials.
In fact, these new non-pollutive biomaterials are designed to replace the traditional fossil-based plastic coatings that are used in most oil-proof fast-food packaging. The new coating not only meets the required functionality standards of traditional oil-proof packaging materials but also works to create an environmentally sustainable solution. It is as recyclable as paper,explains Dr Zhongfa n Jia, a lead researcher from the Flinders Institute.
"The seaweed extracts have a similar structure to the natural fibres from which paper is made,"says Dr Jia.
"Our novel treatments boost the oil-proof feature of the seaweed through simple adaptation while neither affecting the biodegradability(生物降解力) nor recyclability of the coated paper."
"The product could be great news for the environment. We are able to reduce harmful plastic pollution with it,"says Claire Gusko, co-founder of one·five.
Now Flinders University and one·five are trying mass production from the laboratory to the factory.
Although achievements like this are definitely worth celebrating, we can't just stop at seaweed packaging. We need to use seaweed and other sustainable tools to effectively help reduce our environmental impacts and make real changes.
(1)、What're researchers from Flinder University and one·five doing?A、Solving the food waste problem. B、Producing seaweed extracts. C、Using seaweed to develop new coating materials. D、Turning seaweed into bubble wrap.(2)、What is the traditional plastic coating like?A、Oil-proof. B、Expensive. C、Sustainable. D、Recyclable.(3)、What do we know about the seaweed extract coating?A、It has been put on the market. B、It is just a novel concept. C、It is coated with damaging material. D、It is environmentally friendly.(4)、Why does the author write the text?A、To suggest people create environmentally friendly products. B、To stop people from using plastic package. C、To warn readers of the environmental impacts caused by fast-food packaging. D、To introduce a replacement for traditional packaging material.
