24、“There’s nothing to discuss,” barked my husband when told him that Rosie, our 17-year-old daughter, had asked whether she could go to Kavos, Greece, for a holiday with her friends. “Of course she can’t. She’s too young to travel without the presence of an adult. It’s completely out of the question.”
So how come found myself standing, two weeks later, at Gatwick Airport. Tearfully, I watched our eldest child disappear through the security checkpoint. In four hours’ time, she would be in Kavos. It’s 2, 500 kilometers away from England!
There comes a time when you have to let your baby go—for many parents, it’s around the age of 17. We know that there is likely to be something wilder than hanging around by the pool and building sandcastles, but the time has come to trust that they’ll look after themselves.
But still felt worried. Rosie tried to put my mind at rest. She said she and her friends would always look after one another and that it really, really was all going to be okay.
After we had waved our last goodbye at the airport, I looked back. She was, to my surprise, looking back at me, too. Teenagers want to cut free, but it’s a frightening business for them, too.
We made Rosie promise to text as soon as she had arrived in Kavos and at least once a day after that. Around 9 a. m. on the first morning, her first message came through. It was twelve hours since I had left her at Gatwick. And all I got was: “I’m here.”
I wish there were safer places than these so-called teen destinations. But like all the dangers that life can hold for them, at some stage, all you can do is warn them, warn them again, warn them once more, and then hope that some of your messages have gotten through.
My daughter got home safely. So did her friends. But Rosie is now talking about a similar journey next year. And my alarm bells have already started ringing.
【1】We can learn from the last paragraph that the writer ________.
A.still thinks teenagers should not travel without their parents
B.believes it’s useful to warn teenagers about the dangers they might face
C.won’t allow her daughter to travel again without having an adult present
D.now encourages teenagers to learn how to safely travel without their parents
【2】After the writer and her daughter had waved goodbye to each other at the airport, ________.
A.both of them were feeling happy
B.both of them were feeling worried
C.the writer was feeling happy while her daughter was feeling worried
D.the writer was feeling worried while her daughter was feeling happy
【3】The writer didn’t receive message from her daughter until ________.
A.her daughter was about to return home
B.two days after her daughter had left her
C.her daughter had safely landed in Kavos
D.twelve hours after she had left her daughter
【4】The underlined phrase “out of the question” (in paragraph 1) probably means “________”.
A.acceptable
B.different
C.impossible
D.unnecessary
【5】Which of the following can be the best title of the article?
A.Mother’s care
B.Independent Daughter
C.Time to Let Go?
D.A Fascinating Journey!

26、Self- reflection (反省) means stopping the mad rush of activity and keeping yourself and your mind cool, so your brain can evaluate (评价) the input that it has already received. Some people prefer to do their self-reflection in the way of thinking, while others do it in the way of writing something, like keeping a diary or writing notes of some kind.
School textbooks are often divided into units of study. This can make self-reflection easier for someone who wants to do it. Self-reflection can be done in any of the subjects you are learning: math, art or others. Sometimes you are reminded that the unit is over because there is some kind of test. Using those natural breaks above as chances to reflect is a good way.
As a student, you can do self-reflection at school. First, you can write down some notes on things that you learned in this unit that you did not know before you began. Let your mind think over the notes and make some connections with what you have learned. Next, think about the things that you still wonder about. For example, you learned a new way to solve a math problem, but you are not sure when to use it. Writing down your questions will help you remember to seek answers when you meet the same topic again.
Self-reflection is an important skill for a successful student. If you have never taken the time to reflect, try it now.
【1】If you keep a reflection diary, that means you are doing self-reflection by the form of___________.
A.speaking
B.action

【2】___________is a natural break chance to reflect.

27、 Have you ever heard of character amnesia? Amnesia refers to a condition where someone loses all or most of his or her memory. It may be too strong a word to use. With character amnesia, however, it means people have forgotten to put the correct stroke (笔画) in a character or have forgotten the character completely.
Character amnesia is partly caused by the popularity of electronic communication. Today, most people write using computers or other electronic devices. These devices all have input software. You can easily type in a character even if you don't know how to form it.
Back in 2013, CCTV held an interesting TV contest. Contestants were given a word and then asked to write it on a screen. Some of them had a hard time writing such common words as “癞蛤蟆” and “打喷嚏”. The audience at home were encouraged to try writing these words at the same time. The contest showed how widespread character amnesia had become. It encouraged much discussion. The audience felt surprised. For teachers, however, it was just old news.
Su Yunsheng has taught Chinese for more than twenty years. She says, “In recent years, character amnesia has become more and more common among students. I often see students write words incorrectly. The popularity of electronic devices is a major factor.” Su is not the only one complaining, Many experts think not being able to write characters correctly threatens China's cultural heritage.
Written Chinese requires a good memory and a lot of hard work. But Chinese characters are a great cultural achievement. Chinese people should be proud of it. It will be a pity if we lose that heritage someday. The threat is nothing to sneeze at!
【1】According to the article, people with character amnesia ________.
A.cannot read or write
B.have lost all or most of their memory
C.don't know how to write some characters correctly
D.cannot write using computers or other electronic devices
【2】In the 2013 CCTV contest, contestants were asked to ________.
A.write some common Chinese words
B.pronounce some common Chinese words
C.type in some difficult words using keyboards
D.show how widespread character amnesia had become
【3】Which of the following statements about Su Yunsheng is NOT true?
A.She asks her students not to write using computers.
B.She has been teaching Chinese for more than 20 years.
C.She has seen many students suffer from character amnesia.
D.She thinks character amnesia is caused by the popularity of electronic devices.
【4】By writing this article, the writer probably wanted to________ .
A.explore the causes of character amnesia
B.advise people not to use computers too often
C.ask people to pay attention to the threat of character amnesia
D.tell readers the difference between amnesia and character amnesia
