2.Craig Blackburn,a father and car fan,built a Batmobile for his son's hope for using the vehicle to brighten the lives of sick children.And now he hopes to use it for more than just his son's hope after seeing the children's reaction to the Batmobile.
Based on the number of failures he had seen in car groups,he estimated that only about one in 50 attempted constructions was actually finished and he realized what an incredible opportunity he had.
Mr.Blackburn started the project at the beginning of 2018 after hearing a friend in the US was doing the same thing.It started with importing an outer shell overseas,before picking brains of a friend who had a background as a worker in a car factory to gain knowledge of how to build the car.With the help of his friend,Mr.Blackburn built the Batmobile in 18 months with the cost reaching six figures.
Mr.Blackburn hoped to add a flamethrower(噴火器)onto the back of the vehicle and said he had thought about building the more recent Batman Tumbler from the series film Dark Knight.Though Mr.Blackburn encountered plenty of difficulties to get over during the construction,in September 2019,the car made its first show at the Carnival of Flowers in Toowoomba,before being used by Blackburn's son for his hope.
"It was great.It was so good to see the kids' and adults' excitement at seeing the Batmobile," Mr.Blackburn said.As a result,the car lovers hope to make the car work on the roads as soon as possible,so he can visit sick children and take them out with his son.
(1)What is Craig Blackburn's initial purpose of making the Batmobile?
A.To realize his son's dream.
B.To donate it to sick children.

C.Impossible.
D.Unsure.
(3)How did Blackburn's friend help him?

B.By offering him financial support.

3.America's first transcontinental railroad,completed 150 years ago today at Promontory Summit in Utah,connected the vast United States and brought America into the modem age.Chinese immigrants contributed greatly to this notable achievement,but the historical accounts that followed often ignored their role.
Between 1863 and 1869,as many as 20,000 Chinese workers helped build the dangerous western part of the railroad,a winding ribbon of track known as the Central Pacific.At first,the Central Pacific Railroad's directors wanted a whites - only workforce.When not enough white men signed up,the railroad began hiring Chinese men for the backbreaking labor.Company leaders were skeptical of the new recruits' ability to do the work,but they proved themselves not only capable but even superior to the other workers.
Chinese workers cut through dense forests,filled deep narrow steep-sided valley,constructed long trestles(高架橋)and built enormous retaining walls(防護(hù)墻)-some of which remain complete and undamaged today.All work was done by hand using carts,shovels and picks but no machinery.However,progress came at great cost:an estimated 1,200 Chinese laborers died along the Central Pacific route.
Despite these facts,Chinese workers were often left out of the official story because of their identity of foreigners.On the transcontinental railroad's 100th birthday,the Chinese workers were still not honored.It was another fifty years later that their role was gradually highlighted.To celebrate the railroad's 150th anniversary in 2019,the California assembly passed a resolution in 2017 to recognize and honor the Chinese railroad workers by designating May 10,2017,and every May 10 thereafter,as California Chinese Railroad Workers Memorial Day.
(1)What might be the best title for the text?
A.The Birth of the Central Pacific Cost Dearly
B.May 10-A Special Day for Chinese Immigrants
C.Chinese Workers' Contributions Gained Recognition
D.The 150th anniversary of the Central Pacific Railroad
(2)What does "they" in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Chinese laborers.
B.White workers.
C.Company leaders.
D.Railroad directors.
(3)Why does the author make such detailed descriptions in Paragraph 3?
A.To prove Chinese workers' superior skills.
B.To stress the danger and difficulty of the work.
C.To describe the grand scenery along the railroad.
D.To show notable achievements made by Chinese workers.
(4)What does the text intend to tell us?
A.None so blind as those who won't see.
B.No pains,no gains.
C.Truth will come to light sooner or later.
D.Doing is better than saying.組卷:5引用:2難度:0.5

A Funny Story A funny thing happened to Arthur when he was on the way to work one day.As he walked along Park Avenue near the First National Bank,he heard the sound of someone trying to start a car.He tried again and again but couldn't get the car moving.Arthur turned and looked inside at the face of a young man who looked worried.Arthur stopped and asked, "It looks like you've got a problem." Arthur said.
"I'm afraid so.I'm in a big hurry and I can't start my car."
"Is there something I can do to help?" Arthur asked.The young man looked at the two suitcases in the back seat and then said,"Thanks.If you're sure it wouldn't be too much trouble,you could help me get these suitcases into a taxi."
"No trouble at all.I'd be glad to help."
The young man got out and took one of the suitcases from the back seat.After placing it on the ground,he turned to get the other one.Just as Arthur picked up the first suitcase and started walking,he heard the loud noise of an alarm.
It was from the bank.There had been a robbery(搶劫)!
Park Avenue had been quiet a moment before.Now the air was filled with the sound of the alarm and the shouts of people running from all directions.Cars stopped and the passengers joined the crowd in front of the bank.People asked each other,"What happened?" But everyone had a different answer.
Arthur,still carrying the suitcase,turned to look at the bank and walked right into the young woman in front of him.
She looked at the suitcase and then at him.Arthur was surprised. "Why is she looking at me like that?" He thought. "The suitcase!She thinks I'm the bank thief!"
Arthur looked around at the crowd of people.He became frightened,and without another thought,he started to run.
Paragraph 1:
As he was running,Arthur heard the young man shouting behind, "Stop,stop!"___________
Paragraph 2:
The taxi stopped in front of the Police Station and Arthur組卷:16引用:2難度:0.3
