24、   Clothes are traditionally made of natural materials, such as cotton, leather and wool. They are all from plants or animals, but that doesn't mean they're friendly to the earth. For example, farmers have to use a lot of chemicals to grow cotton plants.

Scientists are now looking for new ways to make clothing materials. They hope the new materials are both comfortable and good for the earth. Scientists have worked out how to make materials out of corn husks(玉米皮), chicken feathers and rice straws.

"They used to be useless things. We always have a problem of how to deal with them," Yang, a scientist says, "Now, we can turn them into beautiful materials. Chicken feathers are better than other things. They have small air pockets like honeycombs. That means it will be very warm if you use them to make a jacket or sweater, and I think more and more people will like to buy these kinds of clothes."

25、Portia gave the decision. “One pound of the merchant’s flesh is yours. It is what the contract says. You may take his flesh!”

Shylock held his knife and told Antonio to get ready. “Wait” exclaimed Portia. “You will not do anything that is not written in the contract. Is that right, Shylock?”

“Yes, that’s right,” said Shylock. He wondered what the wise young judge was going to say.

“Well” said the young judge, “I have read the contract carefully, and it does not say anything about taking his blood. It says ‘a pound of flesh’. You can take your pound of flesh, but you may not take one drop of his blood. If you take any of his blood, the duke will take everything you own!”

Now it was Graziano’s turn to bless the judge and call him wise.

“You wanted justice,” Portia told Shylock, “and you will have more justice than you wanted.”

Shylock didn’t want to give everything he owned to the duke. He decided not to take his pound of flesh. He said he would take the money.

“Give me ninety thousand dollars,” he said, “and I will have mercy on Antonio and let him go.”

Bassanio was happy to give him the money. He was very pleased that his friend Antonio would not die.

“Wait!” Portia said again. “He does not want the money. It is not written in the contract.”

But shylock said he just wanted to have his money back and wouldn’t even demand interest. Bassanio was ready to give it to him, but again Portia stopped him.

“He said he wanted only the penalty that is in the contract.”

Shylock understood that he would not get his pound of flesh. He understood that he would not get his money. He decided to go home.

“Wait!” said Portia, for the third time. The law of Venice, says that if you plan to kill a citizen of Venice, you will lose everything that you own. Half of what you have will belong to the person you tried to kill, and the other half will belong to the duke.

26、Hyperloop: the train of the future?

We’re going through the Nevada desert, north of Las Vegas, for having a look at what its supporters believe is the future of transport. This is Hyperloop - an attempt to send passengers rushing at 700 miles an hour through a vacuum tube.

Many think that’s impossible, but this project came back last year of virgin America Inc. with Sir Richard Branson becoming chari-man. In this 500-metre test track, they say they have shown that the technology works, though they’ve not yet put any human beings on board. The head of engineering, a space scientist from NASA, sees no reason why people might be frightened.

Anita Sengupta, Head of Engineering, Virgin Hyperloop One

“The Hyperloop is a maglev train in a vacuum system. And so you can also think of it as an aircraft flying at 200,000 feet high so people don’t have any problem flying in aeroplanes and people don’t have any problem going in maglev trains. This is simply joining the two and allows you to be more energy - saving.” The Virgin Hyperloop team have said they could take passengers from London to Edinburgh in 50 minutes or cut the journey between. New York and Boston to under half an hour.

Did you know?

The word ‘maglev’ is a combination （结合）of the words ‘magnetic’ and ‘levitation’. This is because the system uses magnets to levitate（使浮起）the train. This reduces friction（摩擦力）-- the force that makes it difficult for things to move freely when they are touching each other -- and increases speed. The first maglev train operated in Hamburg, Germany in 1979.

【1】You are likely to see Hyperloop in ________.

A.City of Las Vegas B.Nevada Desert C.NASA Base D.Hamburg, Germany

【2】Hyperloop didn’t get support until ________.

A.human beings were put on board B.the vacuum tube was completed last year

C.Sir Richard Branson became chairman D.scientists solved two problems of transport

【3】The underlined word “attempt”can be replaced by “________’.

A.effect B.effort C.event D.example

【4】A maglev train is fast because it can ________.

A.rise to 200,000 feet high B.rush in a vacuum tube

C.float because of the magnets D.reduce friction of the air

【5】Which of the following statement is TRUE?

A.Head of the Virgin Hyperloop Team is a space scientist.

B.The first maglev train was invented in the Untied States.

C.Most people have confidence in the Hyperloop project.

D.Hyperloop has sent passengers from New York to Boston.

【6】What is the Hyperloop? The Hyperloop is ________.

A.a vacuum tube testing a maglev train system

B.an aeroplane flying at 700miles an hour

C.a maglev train floating on the railway tracks

D.a maglev tain traveling in a vacuum tube

27、To us, it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But in fact the umbrella was not invented as protection against the rain. Its first use was as a shade (遮蔽) against the sun.

Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, back in the eleventh century BC.

We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use : it became a symbol of honor and power(权力). In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by those in high office or by royal people such as the kings or queens.

In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. The umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece, but it is believed that the first people in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans. During the middle ages in Europe, the use of the umbrella almost disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it became a symbol of power.

Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn't until the twentieth century that the umbrellas for women began to be made in all kinds of colors.

【1】 Ancient people first used umbrellas as _________.

A. a symbol of honor   B. protection against the sun

【2】 According to the passage, the umbrella was probably first used in ancient ______.

A. Egypt .   B. Babylon C. Rome D. China

B. Europeans hardly used the umbrella during the middle ages.

C. The umbrellas for women were made colorful in ancient times.

28、先阅读短文，然后在短文后空白处写出各单词的正确形式，单词的第一个字母已给出。

Once upon a time, there was a cat. His name was Tom. Some people at an animation (动画) studio thought it would be a good idea to p【1】 him with a mouse. Then they found a young, smart star named Jerry. The cat and mouse finally c【2】 a double act (双人表演) that made both of them household names.

After 80 years, Tom and Jerry still can’t s【3】 trying to get at each other’s throats (打斗争吵). This time, the forever-battling pair is once again r【4】 to the big screen. But this isn’t necessarily the Tom and Jerry you remember.

In fact, the new movie Tom & Jerry p【5】 them in the real world. Based on (基于) the f【6】 cartoon characters, the film is an eye-catching mixture of classic animation and live action (真人实景). All the a【7】 in this world are animated, from the title characters to the horses pulling carriages. The humans, however, are all played by real p【8】.

Tom & Jerry may not be the best film in r【9】 years as its storyline is pretty simple. The film isn’t trying to be overly touching or thought-provoking (发人深省的), either. Instead, it brings audiences an interesting story and a c【10】 to laugh with their family.

29、   My six-year-old granddaughter, Catherine, and I stopped at a bakery for some bread. As we were going out the door, a young teenage boy was coming in.

This young man had no hair on the sides of his head and some blue hair on top of it. One of his nostrils was pierced (穿孔), and his ears were full of rings. He held a skateboard under one arm and a basketball under the other. Catherine, who was walking ahead of me, _______ when she saw the teen.

I thought he’d scared her and she’d frozen on the spot. I was wrong. My Grand Angel backed up against the door and opened it as _______ as it would go. Now I was face to face with the young man. I stepped aside and let him pass. His response was a kind “Thank you very much.”

On our way to the car, I praised Catherine for her _______ in holding open the door for the young man. She didn’t seem to be  _______ by his appearance, but I wanted to make sure. If a grandmotherly talk about freedom of self-expression and allowing people their differences was in order, I wanted to be ready.

It _______ that the person who needed the talk was me. The only thing Catherine noticed about the teen, was the fact that his arms were full. “He would’ve had a hard time to open the door.” I saw the partially shaved head, the blue hair, the piercings and the earrings.
