【题目】 The Supreme Court is the highest court in the United States. Let’s meet some of the great women who have left their mark on the country’s highest court.
Margaret Brent
In the early years of our nation, women were generally prevented from practicing law. However, there were some exceptions. One such exception was Margaret Brent, who settled in Maryland with her sisters in 1638 and became a wealthy landowner. Brent appeared before courts several times to file lawsuits( 诉 讼 ) against people who owed her money.
Lucy Terry Prince
Lucy was well -known for her skills as a public speaker, and in 1796 she became the first black woman in America to argue before a Supreme Court justice. The case arose from a land dispute, and Lucy argued against two leading lawyers. Chief Justice Samuel Chase , who oversaw the case, said that Prince “made a better argument than he had ever heard from a lawyer in Vermont.”
Ruth Bader Ginsburg
Born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1933, Ginsburg attended Cornell University and Columbia Law School. Between 1972 and 1978, she argued six cases before the Supreme Court concerning laws that kept women out of certain occupations. She won five of them. In the spring of 1993, Justice Byron White retired from the Supreme Court. President Bill Clinton then picked Ginsburg to be his replacement.
Myra Bradwell
In 1872, the Illinois Supreme Court denied Myra Bradwell’s admission to the Illinois Bar despite the fact that she had passed the state bar exam. Bradwell then asked the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn(撤销) the Illinois court’s decision. Unfortunately for Bradwell, the tables weren’t turned. The Supreme Court claimed that there was nothing unconstitutional about denying a woman the chance to practice as a lawyer.

There are several ways improve our English writing kills, such as keeping a diary, learning some good writings with heart, doing a lot of reading, ect. As for me, I prefer keeping a diary. Comparing with other forms of writing, keeping a diary is easier and take less time. Beside, it can help us form the habit of thinking in English. If we can keep this practice, and we will gradually learn how to express us in English. What’s more, keeping a diary can be like talking about one of our close friend, sharing our happiness or sadness. In the word, keeping a diary is a good way of improving our written English.

【题目】 The year was 1999. I was 18, living with friends in a town about an hour north of Milwaukee. Desperate for adventure, we often talked about haunted (闹鬼的) locations, and even wandered around the woods near Rienzi Cemetery. So when a friend shared a story about an abandoned house just down the road from Rienzi, how could I possibly resist? The group of us jumped in the car and headed off into the wild unknown, completely unaware of the misfortune that would soon befall us.
The house was isolated, overgrown and barely visible from the road. Most of its windows were broken. It seemed completely neglected except the locked door and a NO ENTRY sign outside. How would anyone notice, or possibly even care, if we went in and looked around?
We stole inside, hoping for anything to prove the legend. Nothing valuable was found until an old letter, addressed to a Mr. J. Witherell, caught my eye. Its paper was stiff and yellowed. Excited by the physical evidence, I slipped the letter into my back pocket. I was about to exit the house when I noticed firetrucks and police cars lining up out on the road. While most of us were exploring the house, one of us managed to knock a fire detector off the ceiling, which triggered an automated alarm at the fire department. I quickly alerted the others, but there would be no escape.
After a moment of panic, we decided to go outside and face the music. To avoid a theft charge, I left the letter where it was before stepping outside.
The result? Not only did we all get fined for entering, we were required to pay for property damage totaling $1,500 each — too much for us to afford.
For so many years, I have been wondering: Why is the deserted house so heavily protected with detectors and other security measures? Why is the property regularly maintained? What's the story behind that mysterious letter?
【1】What did the shabby appearance of the house seem to remind the kids?
A.They would have no trouble entering it.
B.Their entry would bring them a surprise.
C.Their entry would disturb the neighbours.
D.Their behavior would be noticed by its owner.
【2】Why did the author attempt to take the letter away?
A.It might reveal who had been maintaining the house.
B.It might help uncover the mystery of the abandoned house.
C.It must have been written to disclose a tragedy.
D.It was an evidence of the house being heavily protected.
【3】What led the police cars and firetrucks to arrive so quickly?
A.The police officers were checking there.
B.The house owner reported to the police.
C.The police cars were passing by accident.
D.Some boy started the fire alarm system.
【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.The empty house has been under strict protection.
B.The author wonders why they got fined.
C.No maintenance to the house is conducted regularly.
D.There is much mystery about the abandoned house.

This week should have seen the beginning of a new semester. Instead, China has been witnessing a different kind of new semester because of the novel coronavirus outbreak. Many Chinese schools have suspended the new semester and moved the classrooms online, leading to an explosion of viewings on online educational platforms,
On the first day of school, DingTalk, a virtual workplace developed by Alibaba Group, held online classes for an estimated 50 million students nationwide, from primary to high school level.
The huge demand led many to assume that online classrooms are the source of future prosperity. But according to a guideline issued by the Ministry of Education on Feb 12, “postponement of school without suspension of learning” is not equal to learning through online courses. As the education authorities have said, it is unnecessary for every teacher to record online courses to be evaluated for quality. Also, kindergarten classes cannot be held online.
