24、When someone walks into a room wearing bright colours, everyone seems to take notice. Beautiful bright colours can easily draw our attention. Fresh roses can cheer us up when we’re feeling blue. Dressing up in colourful clothing can bring us into a more positive mood.
What shall I wear today? What colour should I choose?
Dressing yourself for the day is quite important whether you know it or not. Our moods often show what our bodies end up wearing. When you look in the mirror after you dress, train yourself to notice how you feel when you see yourself. Notice your mood. If you are not feeling yourself, could the colour of what you are wearing irritate (使不适) your nervous system? Did you never notice that before? We all know that dark colours can tell lies. They can make you look and feel older than you really are. That is why baby clothes never come in dark colours. To the mind, dark colours seem easier to hold power, but to the heart and feeling level, they don’t help your heart to open. Bring happy colours and happiness to go hand in hand. Bright happy colours open your heart, calming your nervous system.
Some advice:
If you work around people who wear black, try to find a happy colour to look at to replace (取代) the picture of dark colours in your mind.
At night, wear soft clothes in light colours to help your nervous system calm down and smooth it out, preparing yourself for sleep.
Don’t dress children in dark colours because their nervous systems are just beginning to feel.
【1】What kind of colours can easily draw our attention?
A. All of the colours. B. Dark colours.
C. Dark red. D. Bright colours.
【2】Which of the following colours shouldn’t we choose to look at if a lot of people in your office wear dark clothes?
A. Black. B. Green. C. Yellow. D. Red.
【3】What does the underlined word “They” refer to?
A. Some lies. B. Baby clothes.
C. Dark colours. D. Different moods
【4】We should wear ________ to help our nervous system calm down and smooth it out to prepare for sleep.
A. leather clothes in light colours
B. soft clothes in dark colours
C. soft clothes in light colours
D. leather clothes in dark colours

A. We should dress children in dark colours.
B. Fresh roses can cheer us up when we’re feeling blue.
C. Dark colours can tell lies.

25、3D printing is becoming more and more popular. We are now able to print things such as clothing, musical instruments and other things. People and businesses are able to produce the things they need very quickly and easily using 3D printers.
But can you imagine printing food? Some scientists are trying to change the dining experience by doing this. They hope that having a 3D printer in the kitchen will become as common as the blender. Scientists say that they are easy to use: you simply have to choose a recipe (食谱) and put the food “inks” into the printer. You can also change the instructions to make the food exactly how you want it. This means that it would be very quick and easy to make rich and delicious meals.
Using 3D printers to make your meals would also be saving the environment. There would be less need for traditional growing, transporting and packing processes.
Printing food could also help some sick people. They could use the printer to make softer versions (版本) of their favourite foods so that they would not have trouble eating them.
However, some people think that a future of 3D-printed food would be a serious problem. It could take away many jobs, including those for growing, transporting and packing food. Imagine a world where there was no need for farming or growing crops, and the same tastes could be printed from a “food ink”. Also, traditional restaurants might lose business. And there are still some worries: is it really possible to get the nutrients (营养物) we need from food-based inks?
What’s more, cooking and eating together with family and friends has long been a traditional and enjoyable activity. It is hard to imagine a world where the enjoyment of cooking is dead and meals can be made as soon as you turn on the machine.
【1】What does the underlined word “inks” in paragraph 2 mean?
A.Black or colored materials used for writing.
B.Materials used to make food in a machine.
C.Things thrown away in the kitchen.
D.Instructions given to the printer.
【2】What are some scientists doing to change the dining experience?
A.Making 3D printers look like blenders.
B.Making all the instructions exactly the same.
C.Making 3D printers easy and good to use.
D.Making traditional growing more important.
【3】Why do some people think 3D printing is a serious problem?
A.It will provide too many good jobs.
B.Farming is not needed any more.
C.All the tastes of foods are different.
D.More restaurants are needed.
【4】Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.3D printers will take the place of traditional kitchens.
B.3D printers: the most successful invention?
C.3D printers will bring a lot of problems.
D.3D printing: the future of food production?
26、Stephen Curry
My favorite basketball player is Stephen Curry.
Physically, Curry looks younger than most other men. His baby face makes him look even cuter.
Curry is gentle and good-tempered. Basketball matches are often so intense that there can be some conflicts between the players. But when Curry meets conflicts, he always stays calm.
At the same time, Curry is so hard-working that he practices basketball every day to improve his skills. Also, he is very determined. He tries to be himself and never be easily influenced by others.
Stephen Curry is the person I respect the most. He has inspired me a lot. I will work harder, trying to become a good person like him.

The Kite Runner
My favorite book is The Kite Runner.
This story is mainly about Amir and Hasan’s friendship. Hasan is a good kite runner. When he went to catch a kite, a bad boy named Assef humiliated Hasan. Amir saw the bullying, but he didn’t help Hasan because he was afraid. Later, feeling too sorry for Hasan, Amir drove away Hasan and his dad. Amir then went to America. Many years later, Amir’s uncle asked him to go back to Afghanistan and save Hasan’s son, Strabo. Finally, Amir got the salvation of his soul.
I was deeply moved by this story. We should try our best to run for the “kite”. The author also tells us to love peace and life.

27、One day an American called Simon went to London to visit his friend, Rick. Rick told him that his flat was on the first floor. When he arrived, Simon went straight to the first floor of the building. But he was told that there was no Rick on that floor. Do you know why? In fact, the British call the first floor of a building the ground floor. The floor above the ground floor is the first floor, which Americans would call the second floor.

The British and Americans may use different terms for many things. The British usually use football, eraser and mail while Americans prefer to use soccer, rubber and post.
There are some differences in spelling and pronunciation as well. In a word, we should pay attention to the differences between British English and American English when we are learning English.

28、Five tips for less plastic
The world has a plastic problem and it is increasing. Scientists are working to find a long-term solution by making plastic more biodegradable(可生物降解的). But in the meantime, here are five things you can do to r【1】 plastic waste now.
1.Stop using plastic bags. Instead, take your own reusable shopping bag to the store. People use a trillion plastic bags worldwide every year. About 10 percent are used in the United States alone. That’s almost one bag per American per day, but the a【2】 Dane(丹麦人)uses four single-use bags per year. In 1993, Denmark was the first country to place a tax on plastic bags. Today, other countries(such as Chile, Kenya and New Zealand)either make customers pay for plastic bags, or have banned(禁止)them c【3】.
2.Skip the straw. Today, around 8.3 billion plastic straws pollute the world’s beaches. So when you order a drink, say “no”to the reusable straw, or bring your own reusable one. In 2018, Seattle became the first major U.S. city to ban plastic straws and many other cities are set to follow its e【4】.
3.Don’t use plastic bottles. Buy a reusable bottle and fill it with any t【5】 of drink you like. Some cities have already banned bottled water. However, people still buy nearly a million plastic bottles every minute in the world.
4.A【6】 plastic packaging. Buy bar soap instead of liquid soap in plastic containers. Don’t buy fruit or vegetables in plastic packaging. In the U.K, leaders are calling for supermarkets to have plastic-free areas. They also want to tax plastic take-out containers.
5.Recycle. We can’t recycle all plastic items, but it is p【7】 to recycle most bottles and milk or juice cartons. Today, Norway recycles 97 percent of its plastic bottles. How? Machines at most supermarkets take the bottles and give a refund of up to 2.5 kroner(32 cents)per bottle.
29、For me, racing was something I started doing with my family when I was really young. My dad never pushed me into race. He just wanted me to be out there giving it my all, applying myself, and most of all, having _________.
I was racing motorcycles in California when I was 8 years old. In motorcycle racing, they _________ you by age. My ninth _________ was coming up, which meant I would be moving up into the 9-to-11-year-old group. One problem with that was that the motorcycle was much bigger than me. But that didn’t stop me from _________. So I was out there joining in the race, and went into a turn and fell off. My dad was sitting there in the trees just watching the race go on and watching me try to solve this problem. The motorcycle was lying on the ground and I couldn’t lift it up. I got really frustrated (沮丧的). And I began to _________ the motorcycle. That’s when I heard my dad shouting to me, “That motorcycle didn’t do anything to you, son. Don’t kick it.”
I think lots of parents _________ their kids too hard. They might be trying to live out their own dreams, or maybe they want so badly to see their kids _________ that they can take all the enjoyment out of it.
Fortunately, my parents just wanted me to be safe and have fun. If I wanted to race, that was fine with them as long as (只要) I knew what I was doing and take it _________. It wasn’t about winning or losing. It was about the _________ you behaved towards it.
