26、Donald Watson was a man who thought very much about the food he ate. He was born in yorkshire, England , in September 1910. And he died in November 2005, at the age of 95. That is a very great age. Watson explained that it was because he never ate any food from animals.
When he was a boy , Watson stayed on a farm. .He loved to see the animals. He said that they gave so much to people. And all the animals were so friendly. Then , one day , he saw a man killing a pig . He was very sad. . From then on, Watson decided that he would never again eat meat . Twenty years later he decided that he wouldn’t eat anything from animals, such as milk, cheese or eggs. He became vegan (素食主义者).
Watson formed a group called “The Vegan Society”. In its newspaper, The Vegan Society thought it was terrible and wrong to eat food from animals. At first, there were not many people who agreed with him . They thought it was crazy to do____.Most people thought it was too difficult and unhealthy. However, over time , more and more people began to agree with Watson and The Vegan Society.

Now, people also become vegans for environmental reasons. Keeping animals takes a lot of resources(资源), including water and food. Also, in some places, people are cutting down trees to create more land for cows. By avoiding food from animals, vegans hope to protect these forest areas.

27、Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
Does Failure Really Exist?
If you believe you have failed, then you have. If you believe you don’t have the ability to succeed, then you don’t. 【1】 The moment you decide to give up or stop working toward your goals, failure is born.
【2】
Most people give themselves an out without even realizing it. They are willing to work hard on reaching their goals, but only until the things get too rough or their energy dies down. Don’t do that! Instead, make up your mind to make your goal happen, no matter what!
【3】
It’s a good idea to set a general timeline, but remember that something will be beyond your control. You can never say exactly when your goal will be reached. If you lock yourself into a given timeline, you might make yourself feel like a failure! Instead, get a general idea of when you’d like your goal to be completed. Then take it one day at a time and focus on making progress instead of reaching the finish line in as little time as possible.
【4】
Difficulties mean only one thing: it’s not time for your goal to be completed yet. That’s it! It doesn’t mean you failed; it doesn’t mean you’re weak; it doesn’t mean you’ll never achieve your goals. It simply means you have not done enough yet. You’ve got to keep moving forward and find a way over, around, or through the difficulties.
A.Never give up on yourself.
B.Failure only exists in your own mind!
C.That's exactly how failure makes us feel.
D.Don't believe in a clear finish line for goals.
E.Work hard towards your goal, and you will be likely to get good results.
F.Be sure that you don't see difficulties as failures.
28、A scanner is recently created by a group of professors. It is believed to predict the perfect job for anyone simply by reading their fingerprints. The group says that in the future, fingerprints could help tell a person’s key personalities.
To use the scanner, people place their fingers upon the fingerprint reader and computer technology connected with sensors (传感器) reads back what sort of job could suit the individual. The machine bases its results on a collection of a large amount of information in the computer about how fingerprint shapes connect with job selection.
Local companies help researchers from the city’s Kuban University of Physical Education and Sport to test the technology.
Twenty - one - year - old Oscar Galkin, a mathematics graduate, said: “I got the result from the scanner that I would suit a job in IT, which is exactly what I want to do. I don’t know if it is luck or if it can really read a person’s talents, but it worked for me.”
And Zara Tokareva, aged 20, who feels uncomfortable at the sight of blood, said: “I want to be a house designer but the machine said I should be a nurse. So, no, I don’t think it is as clever as expected.”
Though fingerprint identification has been widely used in crime discovering, it is still a science that has a lot of possibility of being used, say experts, from discovering drug misuse to personality analysis - exactly as hand readers have been saying to do for centuries.
“The basic idea is that although everybody’s fingerprints are completely different, there are obvious features that are common on the fingers of certain professionals working in certain jobs,” said researcher Ravil Yudin.
It’s not really a new idea because hand readers have been saying for hundreds of years that you can tell a person’s future by reading their hands. We want to match that by looking at fingerprints and trying to tell what career path people would choose.
【1】From the text we know that the fingerprint scanner .
A. matches fingerprints with jobs B. tells people’s personality
C. helps collect job information D. reads individual’s mind
【2】What can we learn from what Ravil Yudin said?
A. The fingerprint scanner is based on a new idea.
B. Cerain people’s fingers actually have something in common.
C. Telling one’s future by reading his hands started a few years ago.
D. The technology of fingerprint identification can be used in many fields.
【3】What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Hand readers are widely used in life.
B. A fingerprint scanner could tell a person’s personality.
C. A fingerprint scanner could predict a person’s job.
D. A fingerprint scanner could be used in crime discovering.
29、I drove to a local supermarket one day. My shopping list was long and my wallet was light. Still, I needed to get a week’s worth of groceries for my family. I parked my car, looked down at my list, and hoped I could afford it all.
As I approached the door, I saw an old man with kind eyes and a gentle smile. He said he was collecting for a local food bank. He handed me a second shopping list and asked if I could help them. I smiled back, took the list and walked into the store. I really wanted to help but wasn’t sure whether I could this time.
I walked through the store, getting what I needed. When I looked down at my full cart I wondered again if I even had enough to pay for it all. Then as I put my own list back into my pocket I remembered the food bank list under it. I smiled. I went over and picked up two of the biggest boxes of rice for the food bank. It took another six dollars out of my wallet, but my heart felt six times larger when I did it. And when everything was totaled, I had just enough to pay.
It takes so little to make our world a better place. A few dollars can help to fill a child’s hungry belly. A smile and hug can help to heal a hurting heart. An encouraging word can inspire someone else to live and to love. A random (偶然的) act of kindness can change another’s day and life. It is up to you, though. You can think only of yourself and those close to you while saving a few bucks on rice.
【1】We can learn from the first two paragraphs that_______.
A.the author drove to the local supermarket every day
B.the old man was actually begging for food for himself
C.the author didn’t take much money with him that day
D.the author had no interest in the old man
【2】When the author took the list given by the old man, he_______ .
A.thought highly of the old man’s behavior
B.refused to take the shopping list to the store
C.wasn’t sure if he could help him
D.decided to give him a hand at once
【3】Which of the following statements does the author probably agree with?
A.Nothing but smiles can help heal a hurting heart.
B.It actually takes so little for us to make a difference to others.
C.Our world would be poor without kindness and help.
D.It is important for us to think of those who are in great need of rice.
【4】What would be the best title for this passage?
A.A Pleasant Shopping Experience
B.An Old Beggar
C.A Long Shopping List
D.A Small Act of Kindness
