24、F. Scott Fitzgerald, born on September 24, 1896, an American novelist, was once a student of St. Paul Academy, the Newman School and attended Princeton University for a short while. In 1917 he joined the army and was posted in Alabama, where he met his future wife Zelda Sayre. Then he had to make some money to impress her.

His life with her was full of great happiness, as he wrote in his diary “My own happiness in the past often got such joy that I could share it even with the person dearest to me but had to walk it away in quiet streets and take down parts of it in my diary.”

This side of paradise, his first novel, was published in 1920. Encouraged by its success, Fitzgerald began to devote more time to his writing. Then he continued with the novel the Beautiful and Damned (1922), a collection of short stories Thales of the Jazz Age (1922), and a play The Vegetable (1923). But his greatest success was the novel The Great Gatsby, published in 1925, which quick brought him praise from the literary world. Yet it failed to give him the needed financial（财政的） security(安全，保障). Then, in 1926, he published another collection of short stories All the Sad Young Men.

However, Fitzgerald’s problems with his wife Zelda had an effect on his writing. During the 1920s he tried to reorder his life, but failed. By 1930, his wife had her first breakdown and went to a Swiss clinic. During this period he completed novels Tender Is the Night in 1934 and The love of the last Tycoon in 1940. While his wife was in hospital in the United States, he got totally addicted to alcohol（酒精）. Sheila Graham, his dear friend, helped him fight his alcoholism.

a. He became addicted to drinking.

b. He studied at St. Paul Academy.

c. He published his first novel This Side of Paradise.

d. The Great Gatsby won high praise.

A. f-c-e-a-b-d B. b-e-a-f-c-d

A. had made some money when he met Zelda in Alabama

25、Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.

One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one's own.

Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one's free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of nature.

Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional (偶尔的) walk in one of the parks and a fortnight's (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest of the country they are quite prepared to spend with those who are glad to get away from London every night.

【1】Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. People who love nature prefer to live outside the city.

B. People who work in London prefer to live in the city.

C. Some people enjoying city life prefer to work and live inside London.

D. Many nature lovers, though working in London, prefer to live outside the city.

【2】One can use the same money for _______ to buy a little house with a garden in the country.

A. getting a small flat with a garden

B. having a small flat with a garden

C. renting a small flat without a garden

D. buying a small flat without a garden

【3】People who think happiness lies in the town would feel that _______ if they had to live outside London.

A. their life was meaningless

B. their life was invaluable

C. they didn't need a happy life

D. they couldn’t sleep late in the morning

【4】What does the writer think of the life in London?

A. He likes living in the city centre.

B. He prefers to live in the countryside.

C. It isn’t mentioned in the passage.

D. He enjoys working in the garden at weekends.

26、

John and James were best friends. They fought for many reasons, but never gave up their friendship. They visited many places in their travels. They passed through various villages, towns, and forests. They supported each other throughout the journey.

One day, they reached a desert. They had very little food and water. John said that they should save the food and water for later use. However, James disagreed. He wanted to drink water, as he was very thirsty. They had an argument with each other for the water. John slapped (掌掴) James, and they walked in silence. James felt hurt and wrote on the sand, "My best friend slapped me!"

Finally, they saw an oasis (绿洲). They were very happy, and had a lot of fun in the water. While they were both taking baths, James was a little careless and nearly drowned himself. John rushed to him and saved him. James hugged his friend and thanked him. They had a rest and decided to leave the place. When they were about  to leave, James carved (刻) something on a rock. It was "My best friend saved my life!"

He said to John, "When you slapped me, I recorded it on the sand. The wind would have blown it away by now. However, when you saved my life, I recorded it on the rock. It will remain there forever." We have to forget the bad things and cherish the good things that are done to us.

【2】When they got to the desert, John wanted to drink water as he was very thirsty.

【3】John and James had an argument with each other for the water.

【4】James wrote on the sand, "My best friend saved my life!"

27、When US student Olivia Priedeman, 17, woke up one morning, she thought she had had a dream about making plans with a friend.

But it wasn't a dream. Her phone showed that during the night, Priedeman had read a text message from her friend. She did it while she was fast asleep.

Reading and sending text messages while asleep called─ "sleep texting"─ is an unusual sleep behaviour, similar to sleep walking. It's also a growing problem among doctors: young people can’ t live without their cell phones.

One in three teenagers sends more than 100 text messages a day, according to the Pew Internet & American Life Project. And at least four out of five teenagers said they sleep with their phone on or near their bed.

Elizabeth Dowdell, a professor at Villanova University in Pennsylvania, has studied sleep texting. She said that having a phone nearby all night is a big part of the problem.

Andrew Stiehm, a sleep medicine researcher with Allina Health in Minnesota, agrees. It's possible for the part of the brain that controls skills to wake up, while the part of the brain that controls memory and judgment(判断) may be still asleep. That's why some people can perform basic movements-such as walking, talking, texting or even driving while they're sleeping. Some of Dowdell's students said that they're disturbed by their nighttime texting behaviour. But because sleep texting is unconscious, it's a difficult habit to break. Dowdell said she knows of some students who wear socks on their hands to keep themselves from texting.

Marjorie Hogan, a doctor at Hennepin County Medical Centre in Minneapolis, Minnesota, suggests keeping all electronic products outside the bedroom.

【1】What happened to Olivia Priedeman?

A. She sleepwalked to a friend's house.

B. She dreamed of making plans with a friend.

C. She phoned one of her friends during the night.

D. She read a text message from her friend while asleep.

【2】What does the underlined word "unconscious" mean?

A. 无意义的   B. 无意识的   C. 无反应的   D. 无规律的

【3】What can we learn from the passage?

A. It's easy to give up a sleep texting habit.

B. One in three teenagers has a sleep texting habit.

C. Sleep texting can reduce the quality of one's sleep.

D. Sleep texting does more harm to one's health than sleep walking.

28、I often hear some students say English is difficult, and it gives them a headache. But English is very easy for me. I’m good at it. I’m very glad 【1】 (tell) you something about how I study English. First, I think an interest in English is very important. When I learned English first, it was fresh for me.

Then practice again and again, never be tired. I think English 【5】 (learn) well, because it is useful. Besides this, I often read English stories, jokes and easy novels.
