23、In 1638,John Harvard donated some money and about four hundred books to a new university. This was the beginning of the library at Harvard University. The gift was so important that the university was
named for John Harvard.

24、 Green is an important color in nature. It is the color of grass and the leaves on trees. It is also the color of most growing plants. Sometimes, the word “green” means young, fresh and growing. Sometimes, it means something that is not yet finished. For example, a greenhorn is someone who has little experience as he is new to a situation. In the 15th century, a greenhorn was a young cow whose horns(角) had not yet developed. A century later, a greenhorn was a soldier who had no experience in war. By the 18th century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today — a person who is new in a job.
About one hundred years ago, greenhorn was a popular expression in the west of America. People used it to describe a man if he came from one of the big cities in the east. The greenhorn didn’t have the skills to live in the hard country. Someone who is good at growing plants is said to have a green thumb(大拇指). This comes from the early 20th century. A person with a green thumb can make plants grow quickly and well. The Green Revolution is the name given to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains some years ago. It was the result of hard work by scientists who had green thumbs. Green is also the color used to describe the feeling — Jealousy(嫉妒). The green-eyed monster(怪兽) is not a dangerous animal from outer space. It is an expression used about 400 years ago by the British writer William Shakespeare in his play Othello. It means the unpleasant feeling when someone has something he wants to get. In most places in the world, the color green is one of the traffic lights. Green has so many different meanings that we should know more to understand it better.
【1】A new soldier was called a greenhorn in the _________ century.
A.15th B.16th C.18th D.20th

25、Buying second-hand items is becoming more p【1】 these days. One million people are selling over 2 million second-hand items ranging from c【2】 and books to electronic devices on Xianyu every day, Xinhua reported.
People have made more money in r【3】 years and bought more things than they really r【4】 according to a speech given by Wei Ying, founder of the second-hand book-trading site Deja Vu. As more people turn to a s【5】 lifestyle, they are selling their used items for cheap. Shoppers are a【6】 to the low prices, as well as the fact that buying second-hand is good for the environment.
When Chen Junjun, 22, a college student in Shanghai, wants to buy books, she uses Deja Vu. She searches for the books she wants and adds them to her shopping cart, just like on any other shopping site. The difference is that the books are much cheaper— as much as 70 percent cheaper than new books. “Since I have limited spending money, it’s a perfect c【7】 for me,” Chen said.
Lots of people like Chen are buying second-hand books. Deja Vu has over 3 million users and sells about 20,000 second-hand books every day, Beijing Daily reported. It has also opened two brick-and-mortar (实体的) bookstores—one in Beijing, the other in Shanghai.
Besides lower prices, people can also find out-of-print (绝版的) books. Yan Minjun, 21, is a picky reader. She has bought many classic versions of books on Daja Vu, such as a copy of Pride and Prejudice that was published by People’s Literature Publishing House in 1993, “I looked for it a long time. Now I have it!” she said.
