26、   Can you imagine a five-year-old boy writing and playing music on a child-sized violin? This was true of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, a gifted boy who grew up to be one of the most creative composers (作曲家) of all time. Then you might think that the life of this child was easy all the time. Read on. Decide for yourself.

Mozart was born in January of 1756 into a musical family. His father, Leopold Mozart, recognized the talent of his child and devoted himself to teaching him. Later, Mozart toured Europe, putting on concerts for the people of high social positions. He could listen to any piece of music once and then play it from memory. He could play the piano or the violin with his eyes covered. What's more, music that Mozart wrote at the age of five was as good as works by many adult composers.

Mozart earned a living by selling his compositions, giving concerts and providing music lessons for the wealthy. Some of the operas Mozart wrote, such as The Marriage of Figaro, The Magic Flute and Don Giovanni, are still performed today. He composed 41 symphonies(交响乐). However, none of them earned him much money, and he spent far more than he was able to earn. Mozart often waited until the last moment to work on pieces that had been asked for.

By the spring of 1791, Mozart was ill and sad. He was deeply in debt(债务). His health, which had never been good, was becoming even worse. A stranger asked Mozart to write a musical piece for a funeral( 葬 礼 ). Mozart agreed, but then began to fear that it was being written for his own death. His fears turned out to be true. Mozart died in December of 1791, at the age of 35.

【1】What is the purpose of the writer by saying "Read on. Decide for yourself "in paragraph1?

A.To increase your reading interest.

B.To tell you it is your business to read it or not

C.To introduce that the child always led an easy life

【2】Which of the following can't show that Mozart was a born musician?

A.He could play any music wonderfully

B.He could write good works at an early age.

C.He held concerts for the people of high social positions

【3】We can infer from the paragraph 3 that________.

A.Mozart could support himself by working so hard

B.Mozart led a poor life although he wrote many pieces

C.Mozart's compositions sold well and he made a lot of money

【4】According to the passage, which statement is TRUE?

A.Mozart was still poor before his death

B.Mozart's fame gave him a hard life and he felt unhappy

C.Mozart was in poor health so he wanted to wrote a piece for his own funeral

【5】What's the passage about?

A.Mozart's lifetime B.Mozart's talent C.Mozart's works

27、   After more than 30 years of development, Huawei has now beaten Apple and become the world's second-largest maker of smartphones behind Korea's Samsung. It has also become the world's largest supplier of 5G.

But recently, Huawei faced some difficulties. The U.S. government ordered a ban (禁令) on its sales in America. American officials said Huawei gave information that it collected to the Chinese government. At the same time, the U.S. government planned to stop selling parts and services to Huawei, which was believed that Huawei's business would be hurt.

"We have never received such a request (要求) from Chinese government and we have never tried to get into other system to collect information." RenZhengfei, Huawei's founder and president said.

In an interview several years ago, RenZhengfei said. "I started Huawei with only E4,000 at the beginning, but now it has become a $ 100 billion company. The experience was not as romantic as you imagine."

At the same time, sales from both Samsung and Apple declined (下降). So far, Huawei has grown world's largest telecommunications (电信) equipment supplier, selling in 170 countries. It may beat Samsung as the largest smartphone maker in the near future.

【3】From what RenZhengfei said, we can learn that Huawei

A.is deeply affected by the ban.

B.has gotten into the system of the U.S.

C.can solve the problems they are facing

【4】The underlined sentence "The experience was not as romantic as you imagine." in Paragraph 4 probably means.

A.Huawei's developing experience was hard

B.it is romantic to start a company with £4,000

C.the romantic experience was a large amount of wealth

【5】What does the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph?

28、   Hello, everyone! I’m George. I’m glad to be here this morning. Have you ever met a stranger who becomes one of your real friends? Now I’d like to 【1】    (分享）the following experience with you.

【2】 (几个、数个) days ago, the woman I met on my way home from work is a perfect example. I left my 【3】 (办公室）late and forgot that my car needed gas. I had been driving on the road for about 【4】 (四十）minutes when the car started making strange noise. Then it 【5】 (突然) stopped. It was out of gas, and I was quite 【6】   (紧张的）because it was getting dark. After a few minutes，a young couple stopped and offered to help me. They went to a gas station, 【7】  (买）a big can of gas，and put the gas in my car. The woman told me that when she saw me looking so alone and 【8】 (无望的）, she told husband to stop. She wanted to help me because she hoped that someone would stop and help her in a 【9】 (相似的）situation. I’m so thankful for their 【10】   (善意).

A stranger is someone you have never met before, but sometimes great meaning can truly be brought to our life by him or her.
