24、   Taking care of pets can be a great way to teach children responsibility, but it's important to be realistic (现实的). If you're keen on bringing an animal into your home and you've designed a plan for its proper care, here are some choices.

• FISH

First-time owners should consider getting cold-water fish as no tank (鱼缸) heater is required. They should research what kinds of fish get along in the same tank, and be aware of life expectancies-some goldfish can live up to 20 years.

• RABBITS

Though rabbits, or nickname bunnies, may seem like a lovely choice, they can live up to ten years and require an amount of care similar to that of a dog or cat. They have their special diet needs, and often don't behave well around small children. Each year, quite a lot of Easter bunnies become homeless when families feel tired of them.

• GUINEAPIGS (豚鼠，荷兰猪)

These small animals are ideal starter pets. Their cages must be cleaned daily, and they require toys to keep their ever growing teeth in check. Once they're used to the new way of life, guinea pigs need daily exercise in a small room without cracks or holes for escape. They don't want to be alone, but if you get two, make sure they're the same sex or they'll have babies.

• BIRDS

Fond of a fixed timetable, birds require feeding at the same time each day. Cages should be cleaned daily and disinfected (消毒) weekly. Birds clean themselves by bathing in dishes of water and grow in cages big enough to spread their wings and fly a short time.

【1】All the following pets are recommended in the passage EXCEPT ________

A.Rabbits B.Cats C.Guinea pigs D.Birds

【2】As a beginner to raise fish, you'd better ________ in a tank.

A.get some cold-water fish, which get along well B.get some warm-water fish, which get along well

C.get some cold-water fish and some warm-water fish D.get only one cold-water fish or warm-water fish

【3】Rabbits can live up to ________ years, as long as dogs or cats.

A.five B.ten C.twenty D.thirty

【4】________ are necessary for Guinea pigs to play with or grow.

A.Tank heaters B.Cages C.Toys D.Cracks or holes

【5】The underlined word "fixed" from the passage means ________.

A.regular B.repaired C.full D.mixed

【6】The passage is mainly written to ________.

A.officers working for SPCA B.staff from the local zoo

C.reporters for the Animal World D.kids hoping to raise pets at home

25、Have you ever been swimming in a pond, stream, or lake and had a leech(水蛭) stick on you? You probably shouted and tried to force it away as fast as you could. But leeches aren’t really sick, and sometimes they can save lives.

In ancient Egypt and later medieval(中世纪) Europe, doctors put leeches on patients. They believed that the spineless wormlike living things can cure all kinds of illnesses by sucking(吮吸) a patient’s blood. In Europe and in the United States, millions of leeches were used throughout the 1800s. Doctors used leeches to treat a number of illnesses, from obesity to headaches. People soon learned that leeches could not cure most diseases and were not a good treatment for patients. However in 1985, a Harvard University doctor changed people’s thinking once again. He was trying to reattach(重新接上) a patient’s ear, which had been cut off. He had trouble reconnecting the veins because the patient’s blood kept clotting(凝). He used a leech to draw out the blood and saved the ear.

Since then, leeches have often been used in surgery where body parts are reattached. During surgery, a leech is placed on the area where the surgeon does not want the blood to pool and clot. Then the leech produces a thing that keeps the veins(静脉) open and stops the blood from clotting. The leech sucks up excess blood, allowing fresh blood to flow, which helps the patient get well.

Some people are scared to death at the thought of having a blood sucking thing attached to them. But why not welcome a leech if it can save your life?

【1】What is the passage mostly about?

A．Patient’s interest in leeches.

B．How and where leeches live.

C．The medical uses of leeches.

D．Leeches in ancient medicine.

【2】When were leeches first used?

A．In medieval Europe.

B．In ancient Egypt.

C．In 1985 by a Harvard University doctor.

D．In the 1800s in Europe and in the United States.

【3】When a leech is placed on a patient, which one happens first?

A．The leech produces a thing.

B．The patient’s veins open.

C．The patient’s blood flow faster

D．The leech sucks up excess blood.

【4】Why did a doctor in 1985 decide to try using leeches?

A．He needed a way to close the wound.

B．He wanted to change people’s thought.

C．He believed in the mystery of nature.

D．He needed to keep blood from clotting

26、   From deserts（沙漠）and beaches to playgrounds， we can find sand everywhere. But you might not know that sand is also useful.

"Sand is the second most-used things in the world after water，" the BBC reported. However， the UN said we might be running out of it.

Sand is made up of very small pieces of rock ， soil and minerals（矿物质）. It can take tens of thousands of years to form（形成）. But now we are using sand more quickly than it is being formed. According to the BBC， we use about 15 billion tons of sand every year to build houses， roads and other things. That 's enough to build a 20-meter-high and 20-meter-wide wall around the equator（赤道）every year.

People also put sand in the sea to make new islands. Singapore， for example， is now 20 percent bigger than it was in 1965. Palm islands are three large man-made islands in Dubai， United Arab Emirates. They took 94 million cubic meters of sand to build.

"If people keep using so much sand， it will run out in many places. For example ， Vietnam may run out of construction（建造）sand by 2020"， Live Science noted.

Since people need so much sand， they are trying to mine（开采）more of it. But this is bad for the environment. Mining sand may cause beaches to disappear and more floods to happen in places close to the sea. Also ，this may affect the habitats（栖息地）of many plants and animals.

【1】From the story ， we know sand___.

A.can only be found on beaches B.is the most-used things in the world

C.can never be used up D.can be used to build houses

【2】How is Singapore becoming bigger?

A.People build more houses in Singapore.

B.People build more roads in Singapore.

C.People put sand in the sea to make new islands.

D.People try to mine more sand.

【3】How many tons of sand do we use every year?

A.About 9 ，400 ，000. B.About 2 ，000 ，000 ，000.

C.About 2 ，000 ，000. D.About 15 ，000 ，000 ，000.

【4】What is the reason more floods will happen in places close to the sea?

A.Over mining of sand. B.The weather there.

C..The increasing size of certain islands. D.The death of some plants.

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

A.The UN said，" Sand is the second most-used things in the world after water.

B.We shouldn't over mine sand.

C.People took 94 million cubic meters of sand to build Singapore.

D.Sand is not being formed so quickly as we are using it.

27、Success by failure

I had failed again. It was the day of the big marathon. I had decided three years ago to train for the half-marathon event and take home a medal. There I sat, in front of my TV, while I watched others cross the finish line. It was just another in a long string(串) of failures. I had never met a single weight loss or fitness goal and I was majoring in the art of failing.

We are a family of exploration and often plan active vacations. It seemed that on every vacation I was the one who couldn’t go the distance. Each time I urged(催促) my family, “Go on without me. Bring me lots of pictures and videos. I’ll be fine just sitting here taking in the view.” I lied. Sick of being left behind, I decided that it would never happen again. Sure I was in my 50s, but surely there was still hope for me. I always spent weeks walking to prepare for our active vacations. I had lost weight many times. I just always seemed to fail to get where I needed to be.

But this time I would do something different. I was going to walk a half marathon. Surely I would lose weight and get in sharp if I could complete over 12 miles in four hours. Besides, this would be training. Training sounded cooler than diet and exercise. I was revved up and ready to go. I bought the proper gear(装备)，checked out what type of drinks would be handed out at the marathon and prepared a lot. I had a plan！

Now two years later, there I sat, watching thousands of people of all ages succeed where I had failed. I walked out, angry with myself, sat down and had myself a pity party. I was a master at the art of pity parties, having a great deal of experience in holding them. What was my problem? Where was I going wrong? I stopped and considered each failure, one by one. I made some very interesting discoveries.

I had failed to climb to the top of that Mayan pyramid, but I did climb it and stood on those ancient stones. I had failed to meet a single weight loss goal and yet I had lost 43 pounds. I couldn’t walk 12 miles in four hours, but I could walk 12 miles.

All my failures were sounding like a success story. This time I was giving thanks. I was thankful that I had been given the spirit of failure because failure meant that I was trying, that I didn’t give up. I decided that I would be crossing the finish line next year.

【1】What can you learn from the passage?

A. The writer didn’t lose any weight in the end.

B. The writer didn’t climb the Mayan pyramid.

C. The writer didn’t take part in the big marathon.

D. The writer didn’t have holidays with his family.

【2】What does the underlined sentence “I was revved up.” Probably mean?

A. I got excited.  B. I felt moved.

C. I was pushed.   D. I was chosen.

【3】Which words can best describe the writer in the passage?

A. Clever and friendly   B. Interesting and proud

C. Humorous and hopeful. D. King and strong-willed.

【4】The writer probably agrees that   .

A. one should never give up half way

B. setting a goal is the key to success

C. one can learn by making and correcting mistakes

D. trying but failing to reach the goal is still meaningful

28、    It is normal to think that “post-00s” generation(代) spends too much money on online gaming or online livestreaming(直播). But a report from China Youth Daily has 【1】 /ʃəʊn/ another side of the young.

Wang Yihan, 16, is from Fuzhou. During her vacation, she decided to buy 【2】 Casio watch. Before buying, Wang decided to research all of the possible 【3】 (choice). She looked up information on the different Casio watches on the website and compared each type 【4】 (careful). For Wang, researching products is as enjoyable as buying them.

Sun Xiaoxue, 15, from Guangzhou, likes 【5】 (make) her own diaries. To make beautiful diaries, many would buy lots of materials like stickers(粘贴纸) for decoration, but Sun had a different 【6】 /aɪ’dɪə/. “I found many old stickers and cut 【7】 (they) to make my own diaries. The stickers make my diaries more 【8】 /’speʃ1/,” said Sun.

For Liu Yu, 17, from Shandong, she doesn’t think she has to spend much on her interests. 【9】 she is a lover of Han Fu, she hardly spends money on them. Instead 【10】 buying them, she prefers to learn about the culture and history behind the clothes.
