1．Several Things That You Can't Miss in Macao
Macau，along with Hong Kong，is one of the two special administrative regions of China in Eastern Asia.It lies on the western side of the Pearl River Delta，bordering Guangdong and facing the South China Sea.If you have ever thought of travelling around，Macao is definitely on your list.
?Visit the Macao Tower
The Macao Tower，338 meters tall，is the world's 10th highest tower，with a variety of activities，such as gambling，eating and entertainment.One of the acclaimed activities is the bungee jump.If you are not daring enough to jump that height，you can try the skywalk on the 57th floor — it's still remarkable.Grab this chance and tick off this item on your bucket list.
?Grab a traditional Portuguese dinner
Macao was colonized by Portugal before 1999.As a result，Portuguese culture is deeply immersed into many corners of Macao.Many Portuguese settled and opened Portuguese restaurants in the special administrative region.

?Watch the Macao Grand Prix
The Macao Grand Prix is a major worldwide car-racing event held annually，featuring over 300 top drivers every year.This challenging circuit consists of fast straights，tight corners and uncompromising crash barriers，attracting numerous top Formula One drivers who aim to win.The Grand Prix runs annually in November every year for about four days.

2．Chase is always on the lookout for ways he can help others.At just 13 years old，he has already contributed a great deal to the community in Port Allen，Louisiana.He has hosted dinners for senior citizens，donated hundreds of pairs of socks to the homeless，and now he is contributing directly to the kids at his school.
Chase noticed many children at Port Allen Middle School have a hard time affording new clothing，especially when events like school dances and graduations come up.So when school leaders asked students how they could improve their community，Chase suggested helping families get clothes.
The school agreed，and PAM's Pantry was born.The concept is simple：First，people donate clothing，shoes，sports equipment，and other helpful personal items.Then，Chase helps organize the donations so headmaster Jessica and the teachers can hand them to those in need.
Jessica says this plan is helping the school meet more kids' needs than ever before，especially since they live in a low-income area. "We really want the kids to feel like they have somewhere to go when they need something，" the headmaster said. "We only have 215 kids，so we're able to get to know them really well and try to help them where we can."
Amanda，Chase's mother，said she was not the least bit surprised that her son decided to come alongside his peers. "He seems to have a great passion for people，" she said. "I always encourage him to bless others because they deserve happiness，too."
If more people think like Chase does，the world will be a kinder place!Simply looking for ways to be the change we want to see in the world can have life-changing effects，not just on us，but also on those around us.

3．Like the move from horse-drawn carriages to vehicles powered by internal-combustion engines，the change from cars powered by fossil fuels to electric vehicles （EVs） will have a profound effect on personal transport.The Epidemic worldwide caused a 20% drop in global light vehicle sales in 2020，to about 70 m，but they pick up in 2021.And the proportion of vehicles powered by batteries will grow quickly.
The increasing share price of Tesla，provides a big motivation for newcomers to catch up.Tesla may lead in battery technology and software，but to make those advantages stick，it must prove that "production hell" is behind it.Sealing up（擴大規(guī)模） manufacturing has caused Tesla its biggest headaches.
Big-name carmakers face an equally discouraging challenge：learning how to write software.Electric cars require integrated software，not just to ensure that batteries and motors work together to provide the best performance，but to connect the car to the outside world.
And what of the Tesla followers，from China's Li，Nio and Xpeng to American firms such as Fisker，Lucid and Nikola？Cash from excitable investors has poured in and it is the same with big-name carmakers — as are tech giants，keen to get involved as transport goes digital.Can the followers persuade investors that they have patent technology that will give them a long-term advantage？
Eye-catching Advertisements of vehicles are one thing，but as the industry's trouble shows，working out how to make cars at scale，when softwares are as important as brakes and bodywork，is quite anojye.air.The coming year will make clearer which of Tesla's competitors，new and old，can stay in race.
（1）Which word best describes the trend of electric cars industry？
A.Uncertain.
B.Challenging.
C.Disappointing.
D.Promising.
（2）Why is Tesla in trouble？

B.It may lose its advantage in software writing.
C.Its advertising is considered to be exaggerating（夸張的）.
D.It has to compete with many capable newcomers.

A.Their share prices are catching up with those of Tesla.
B.They are all receiving money from eager investors.
C.Their problem lies in improving brakes and bodywork.
D.They are mostly well-established companies.
（4）Which is the best title of the passage？

10．閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容寫一篇60詞左右的內(nèi)容概要。
Parents everywhere praise their kids.Jenn Berman，author of The A to Z Guide to Raising Happy and Confident Kids，says， "We've gone to the opposite extreme of a few decades ago when parents tended to be more strict." By giving kids a lot of praise，parents think they're building their children's confidence，when，in fact，it may be just the opposite.Too much praise can backfire and，when given in a way that's insincere，make kids afraid to try new things or take a risk for fear of not being able to stay on top where their parents' praise has put them.
Still，don't go too far in the other direction.Not giving enough praise can be just as damaging as giving too much.Kids will feel like they're not good enough or that you don't care and，as a result，may see no point in trying hard for their accomplishments.
So what is the right amount of praise？Experts say that the quality of praise is more important than the quantity.If praise is sincere and focused on the effort not the outcome，you can give it as often as your child does something that deserves a verbal reward. "We should especially recognize our children's efforts to push themselves and work hard to achieve a goal，" says Donahue，author of Parenting Without Fear：Letting Go of Worry and Focusing on What Really Matters. "One thing to remember is that it's the process not the end product that matters."
Your son may not be the best basketball player on his team.But if he's out there every day and playing hard，you should praise his effort regardless of whether his team wins or loses.Praising the effort and not the outcome can also mean recognizing your child when she has worked hard to clean the yard，cook dinner，or finish a book report.But whatever it is，praise should be given on a case-by-case basis and be proportionate（相稱的） to the amount of effort your child has put into it.組卷：16引用：6難度：0.6
