25、Choose the best answer(根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案)
Last summer, I began the biggest adventure of my life. I moved from a tiny city in England to one of the largest cities in the world.
As the plane landed in Beijing, I felt excited that I'd finally arrived after months of planning. One of the first things 1 did was visiting one of the city’s hutongs(胡同). Strolling (闲逛)around the narrow streets, the warm air was filled with the smell of delicious food as people played mahjong and rode their old-fashioned bikes . This was the first moment I thought, "Wow, I'm in China."
Beijing couldn't be more different to my own home city, Preston, which has a population of just 114,000. It has one shopping street that's around 500 meters from one end to the other and on Sunday, all the shops close at 4:00 pm. There isn't a great deal of choice when it comes to restaurants, either, and as a fan of food, I couldn't wait to see what Beijing has to offer. I still don't have a favorite dish here yet.
I'm slowly getting used to the fast-paced(快节奏的) lifestyle and different way of life , but I still find some habits here quite strange and humorous .
British people are raised to not make any sort of bodily noise at the dinner table or in public , so to hear the loud noise of Chinese diners or the throat-clearing(清嗓子) sounds of colleagues(同事) was a funny culture shock at first .
Something else I’ve discovered is the attention that being a foreigner brings. On the subway or in streets and restaurants, some people stare (盯着看) and try to take secret photos of me. It seems that I am a famous person or a popular star.
In the future, I hope to see many other parts of China. My dream is to buy a motorbike travel from one end to the other of this beautiful country, taking photos and meeting new people along the way.
My adventure in China is only just beginning, and I can't wait to see how it turns out.

26、 It’s always a happy moment when you get some pocket money. But have you ever thought about how to spend your pocket money wisely? Here is some advice.
Make a list.
When you get your pocket money, don’t get too excited. We all have a lot of things that we want. But do you really need them? That’s why it is necessary to make a list before you spend money. Start with the thing you want most. You can also write down how much it costs or how important it is in your life. By doing this, you will see if it is really necessary to buy it.
Help others.
How about being more selfless and using your pocket money to help others? We all know that there are many people in the world who are in need of our help. Helping others brings out the best in us and is one of the greatest joys in our lives. So consider using your pocket money to do something useful and helpful, and feel how you can make a difference.
Save as much as you can.
There is an old saying that “Money doesn’t grow on trees.” If you spend all your pocket money right away, you’ll have no money until your next “pay day”. A wallet sometimes might not be the best place to save money because it may make it easier for you to spend your money. Get a piggy bank(存钱罐)or ask your parents to start a savings account (账户) for you. Someday when you look back, you’ll get a strong feeling of achievement by saving so much money by yourself!
【1】Why should we make a list before spending money?

27、 A smile will tell people around you that you are a kind and friendly person. However, many people don’t smile because they think they have ugly teeth. For example, one of my classmates, Mike, doesn’t have very nice teeth, so that is why he seldom opens his mouth. He even says that he has lost confidence because of his teeth. So it is very important for us to look after our teeth. In fact, a lot of people have this problem. Some people inherit teeth problems from their parents, while others’ teeth are damaged because of bad habits, like heavy smoking, eating too much sugar or not brushing teeth often. If your teeth are in bad shape, you should see a dentist and ask for help. They can help improve your teeth and tell you how to take care of them.
Smiling can help you to feel more confidence and make people think of you as a more friendly person. If you want to keep healthy, you should not only smile but also laugh. An Indian doctor called Kataria said that young children should laugh about 30 times a day, while adults should laugh between 7 and 15 times a day. So please take this chance to smile and laugh now.

28、 Why Short Stories Are Best for English Learning
You get more time to focus on words. When a text is short, you can have more time to learn how every single word is used and what importance it has in the text. This is more useful for those who are 【1】 (begin) of English. You can read a whole story at a time. Attention length is very important for learning. And the ability to finish a story gives you more time 【2】 (understand) it. Short stories are written to give you 【3】 (much)information with less effort (努力).
It is best for consistency (一致性). It is much easier to read one story every day than trying to read a big novel that never 【4】 (seem) to end.
You can share them easily in a group. Since short stories can 【5】 (read) in any place, they are perfect for book clubs and learning circles. Most of the time these groups do not work because members have no time to read. Short stories are the perfect way for them.
You can focus more on ideas. Language is less about words and more about the meanings behind them. If you spend all your time 【6】 (learn) vocabulary and grammar, you will never be able to speak a language 【7】 (smooth) because you will have little to talk about. Short stones give you the chance to understand big ideas in a short text.
In a word, short stories will not only improve your English reading comprehension (理解力) but also open your mind to different worlds.
29、Once upon a time, a beautiful young lady married a young man. The couple led a ________ life, except for one problem: the husband spent all his time dreaming of turning dirt into gold. In those days, such people were called alchemists. Soon the husband ran through all his money. So the wife begged him to find a job. But he ________ with his dream.
Finally the wife went to her father about the problem. The father asked to see the young man. The young man arrived and expected his father-in-law would be ________. To his surprise, his father-in-law told him that he had been an alchemist before.
“Now you need one more thing to change dirt into gold, and I have only recently discovered this ________.” The old man whispered, “It is the silver powder that grows on banana leaves. You must plant the bananas yourself and put spells on them. When the plant grows, the powder will become magical. And you need two pounds of it.”
The son-in-law shouted loud. “That would require hundreds of banana plants!”
“Yes,” sighed the old man, “That’s why I am too ________ to complete the work myself.”
“Do not ________!” said the young man, “I will!” So the old man taught him the magic spells and gave him enough money to start the project.
The next day, the young man began to work just as the old man had told. Each day he looked after the plants ________ . It took him several years to collect two pounds of the powder. He rushed to his father-in-law’s house.
“I have the magic powder!” he cried with ________.
“Wonderful!” said the old man. “Now I can show you how to turn dirt into gold! But first you must bring your wife here.”
The young man was puzzled, but obeyed. When his wife appeared, the old man asked his daughter, “While your husband was collecting the powder, what did you do with the bananas?”
“I ________ them,” the daughter said, “That’s how we’ve made a living. I have also saved money.”
“May I see it?” asked the old man. So his daughter hurried home and returned with several bags. The old man opened them, saw that they were full of gold. Then he took a handful of ________, and put it next to the gold.
“You see,” he said, turning to his son-in-law, “You have changed dirt into gold!”
