10、 known as Mark Twain. He moved to Hannibal with his family at the age of four. Now its easy to find little Samuel Clemens in this town.As a big fan of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, I especially enjoyed seeing the Mark Twain Boyhood Home where Twain really slept. The bedroom window that lured(诱惑)Twai
11、ns character out into the night apparently held the same fascination for Twain himself. Going out secretly was a favorite, though forbidden, activity. Along the side of the house runs a tall white fence, much like the one Tom Sawyer persuaded his friends to paint.Across the street from the Mark Twai
12、n Boyhood Home stands the home of Laura Hawkins. Hawkins found her way into American literary history as Becky Thatcher, the girlfriend of Tom Sawyer. Many of her belongings can be viewed in the elegant living room, and visitors can hear a recording of Laura talking about her childhood and her frien
13、dship with Mark Twain.The New Mark Twain Museum a few blocks away provides interactive displays. Children can enjoy the adventure on a large boat, helping Tom Sawyer paint his fence, and sitting in a model stagecoach(公共马车).In the town of Hannibal, I cant help looking around for a boy with a fishing
14、rod and a naughty smile, who has gone out of his bedroom window secretly to play pirates. The boy isnt there, of course. He exists only in the writings of the man he became. But the town has preserved the boys memory so well that I must say I would have been disappointed if I hadnt seen it.4What can

19、h humans left was worse than expected.Not all plastics are to blame. They are necessary in places like hospitals and airplanes , and make our vehicles lighter and more efficient. However , other plastics, especially disposable(一次性的) plastics , account for the growing mess on the beaches. Islands all
20、 over the world are jammed with plastics. And the Cocos Islands are no exception.It requires the greatest effort of all time to control plastic pollution in modern society. No matter how tall the hurdles are , something has to be done.Apparently, demand for disposable plastics must be reduced greatl

We should understand how serious the situation is.”Although it is important for individuals
22、 to make an effort to avoid using disposable plastics, it is also generally believed that only with international rules can such a deep- rooted, common, and worldwide disaster be tackled. However, the U.N, which engages in dealing with accelerating climate change and public health crises , obviously
23、 isnt paying enough attention to calling for international action on plastic pollution. As a result, billions of plastic products will still be produced every year, many of which will end up in the ocean.Nowadays, fish are eating plenty of plastics, and people eat those fish. It remains unrevealed h

In 2018 , measles (麻疹)
28、 infected almost 10 million people throughout the world, killing 142,000. Countries that achieved high vaccination (疫苗接种) rates or had formerly eradicated the disease also failed to have a narrow escape.Fortunately, apart from troublesome measles, many inspirational global health stories happened in
29、 the last decade. New viruses, vaccines and treatments were discovered, once again showing the significance of science.Huge progress was made in virus research. For instance, a kind of virus named Medusavirus, which can turn an amoeba, a kind of single-celled living creature, into a “stone”, was ide
30、ntified by Japanese scientists. The virus has one of the largest and most complicated viral genomes (基因组) that have ever been found. Besides, a new virus, Alongshan virus, was discovered in a group of patients in Inner Moggolia. Researchers also found for the first time that an insect RNA virus, the
31、 Providence virus, was able to infect plants and mammalian cells, which indicated that plants could serve as hosts of human viruses.We also saw improvements in treatments and vaccines. Ebola virus is a good case in point. According to the Royal Free Hospital in Britain, the drug MIL 77, which had be
32、en developed by Academy of Millitary Medical Sciences, an institution in China, jointly with some other companies, was adopted to treat a Briton infected with the disease and helped her recover from the deadly virus. This has indicated Chinas capability of offering and economical and practical drug
33、fighting Ebolavirus worldwide. Furthermore, the Chinese and British medical research teams have worked on genome sequencing of the virus, making it possible to develop drugs and vaccines that are more effective. Therefore, Ebola is no longer a death sentence.Thanks to the investment in global superv
34、ision(监督), transnational partnership, and scientific research, many new viruses, vaccines and treatments were successfully discovered in the last decade. But the journey will continue and much more needs to be done. For example, we need to have a deeper understanding of how climate change influences

38、Sometimes, the simplest ideas are the best. For example, to absorb heat from the sun to heat water, you need large, flat, black surfaces. _16_ But why go to all that trouble when cities are full of black surfaces already , in the form of asphalt(柏油)roads?Ten years ago, this thought came to the mind
39、of Arian De Bondt, a Dutch engineer. _17_ The result is that their building is now heated in winter and cooled in summer by a system that relies on the surface of the road outside. _18_ Most of them run one side of the street to the other, just under the asphalt road. Some, however, dive deep into t
40、he ground. When the street surface gets hot in summer, water pumped through the pipes picks up this heat and takes it underground through one of the diving pipes. At a depth of 100 meters lies a natural aquifer(蓄水池) into which several heat exchangers(交换器)have been built. _19_ After that, it returns
41、to the surface through another pipe. The aquifer is thus used as a heat store.In winter, the working system is changed slightly. Water is pumped through the heat exchangers to pick up the heat stored during summer. This water goes into the building and is used to warm the place up. After performing
42、that task, it is pumped under the asphalt. _20_AHe finally persuaded his boss to follow it up.BSome water pipes have to be re-arranged in winter.CThe Dutch engineers system has been widely used.DThe heat-collector is a system of connected water pipes.EThus, its remaining heat keeps the road free of
43、snow and ice.FOne way to do that is to build those surfaces on the roofs of the buildings.GThe hot water from the street runs through the exchangers, warming the ground-water.三、完形填空Students start a joyful hotline to cheer people upWouldnt a joyful message lift your spirits during this time of corona
44、virus (新冠病毒) isolation (隔离)?A group of Calgary Board of Education students in the Ever Active Recreation program set out to _21_ peoples lives during this hard time.The program is called joy4All which encourages anyone, especially the _22_ , to share their own messages through a hotline that provide
45、s pre-recorded _23_ stories, kind messages and jokes.Jamie Anderson, a teacher at Ever Active Schools, encouraged his students to take an active part. “Many people are experiencing _24_ to connection with others, so the students decided to bring joyful messages to phone lines to _25_ as many people
46、isolated from others as possible to cheer them up,” Anderson said.Ali Ahmad, 16, one of the students for Joy4All, said he wanted to make a _26_ during the time. “Through this project we will be able to _27_ people isolated at home with something they can always look forward to in their day._28_, it
47、can lighten the _29_ and even help save lives,” he said. “We _30_ wanted to reach out to seniors, and people in nursing homes and hospitals , but later we also want to connect with other parts of the community, like families who are at home.”Another student _31_ for Joy4All, Jared Quinn, 20, said he wanted to help those who were dealing with isolated families. “Im doing this mainly because of my _32_ with isolation. My grandparents, who live in a different province, were _33_ to come and visit, but now they cant owing to the isolation policy,” said Ouinn. The program is due
