24、Like many people, I have no clear idea about heroes. At some point, we all wonder if we need a hero and what a hero really is.

Although there are a lot of differences in cultures, heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics(特点) which give us courage and make us want to learn from them.

A hero does something worth talking about. A hero has a special story to tell and people think highly of it. But a hero is not just the person with great fame(声誉).

A hero has powers(力量) larger than himself. Some people want to live like a hero, and they have to experience life with new and further meaning. A sure test for would-be heroes is what or whom they serve. What do they want to live and die for? If the answer suggests they serve only their own fame, they may be famous persons but not heroes.

A hero has a vision from the mountaintop. He has the power to move people. He creates new possibilities. Without Gandhi, India might still be part of Britain. Without Martin Luther King, Jr., Americans might take different buses, eat in different restaurants, go for walks in different parks, and shop in different stores because of the different colours of their skin.

There might be changes in society without a hero, but the speed of change would be rather slow. Thanks to heroes in history, they make the society develop so rapidly.

【1】According to this passage, a hero is a person who always ________.

A．gives us courage

B．thinks highly of others

C．shares great fame

D．stands on the mountaintop

【2】If you want to live like a hero, you should ________.

A．experience a new and meaningful life

B．listen to something worth talking about

C．serve your own fame and try to be famous

D．know where and how you want to live and die

【3】The underlined word “vision” in the passage means “________”.

A．风景

B．想象

C．远见

D．形象

【4】Black people in America used to ________ before Martin Luther King, Jr.

A．shop at the white’s stores

B．drive buses with the white

C．take walks in the white’s parks

D．eat in restaurants without the white

【5】What can we learn from the passage?

A．We don’t need heroes anymore at some point now.

B．Heroes are all the same though different in cultures.

C．People get power from heroes to move to a new place.

D．Our society has developed faster because of heroes in history.

25、   Tim and Jim lived in the same village. They were both hard-working and had a happy life with other villagers.

But that year, there was a serious drought(旱灾) happening in their village. Their fields were all dry and their crops were dying. They couldn’t get enough water for their crops until a visitor from a village next to theirs came. The visitor told them that there was a spring on the mountain near their village and it had a large amount of water to water their fields. So Tim went to find it with two big buckets(桶) at once and later he began to carry water for his field every morning. He earned water from morning to night, but that wasn’t enough for his field. Jim also went to find the spring with Tim, but he didn’t carry water the next day. He also left the village in the early morning and then came back at night. Three days had passed, many villagers didn’t see Jim in the daytime. They began to ask him where he went. Jim smiled and just told them to wait for his good news. Then the next day, at noon, Jim and a line of pieces of bamboo appeared in front of his field. When he joined the last piece of bamboo from the mountain with another one’s end, water ran along them into his field. With Jim’s help, all the other villagers’ fields got water by joining pieces of bamboo with his and were saved. And Tim needn’t carry water with two heavy buckets, either.

There’s no doubt that being hard-working is a good quality. But hard work with good ideas is much better.

根据短文内容判断正误，正确的写（A），错误的写（B）。

【1】Tim and Jim lived a hard-working and happy life until a visitor from a village next to theirs came.

【2】The crops in their fields were all facing the danger of death when a visitor came from a neighbor village.

【3】Just Jim carried water from the spring every day.

【4】Jim didn’t tell the others until the fourth day because the spring water wasn’t enough for all of them.

【5】The writer tries to tell us that we should not only work hard but also use our wisdom.

27、   They hang from trees. They float in rivers and oceans. They are piled up in landfills(垃圾填埋场). Our frequent use of plastic products has, for many years, been a leading cause of serious environmental problems in the world. Last month, China drew up new guidelines(指导方针) aiming to bring plastic pollution under control across the country in five years’ time.

According to the new guidelines, the ban(禁令) on the use of non-biodegradable(不可生物降解的) plastic bags will have been applied to cities including Beijing and Shanghai by the end of this year. Other sources of plastic garbage will have been banned in these cities by the end of 2022. And that rule will have extended nationwide by late 2025.

Fortunately, China will not start from zero. Late last year, the country announced a national standard for biodegradable plastic shopping bags. It is technologically prepared for their production. Some regions have gained valuable experience that others can learn from. For example, Jilin province is leading the way by providing eco-friendly(环保的) shopping bags in some local supermarkets.

Given the size of China’s consumer market, one main obstacle(障碍) is the large number of plastic items that are being used by restaurants and e-commerce(电子商务) platforms. It’s estimated that nearly 25 billion plastic bags were used for deliveries in 2018. Most of them were rarely reused.

However, most Chinese people welcomed the government’s effort to reduce the use of plastics. “Beijing is thinking about the problem seriously,” said Tang Damin, a member of Greenpeace East Asia in Beijing. He added that the policy could be far more effective(有效) by using incentives(激励) such as a deposit(押金) return program on plastic products.

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

A.China has invented biodegradable plastic shopping bags.

B.Plastic pollution becomes more and more serious in China.

C.Greenpeace East Asia in Beijing worries about the plastic pollution.

D.China has drawn up new guidelines to reduce plastic pollution in five years.

【2】According to the time line of the new guidelines, .

A.the rules will have extended nationwide by late 2025

B.plastic garbage will have been banned in Shanghai by the end of 2020

C.plastic bags won’t be allowed to be used in Beijing by the end of 2022

D.a deposit return program on plastic products will be put into practicing in 2023

【3】What is the biggest challenge to follow the guidelines?

A.Most Chinese people aren’t used to using paper bags.

B.It’s hard to make effective policy to solve the problem.

C.Many supermarkets are still providing customers with plastic bags.

D.Restaurants and e-commerce platforms need large number of plastic items.

【4】What does Tang Damin think of the new policy?

A.The new guidelines are not much useful.

B.People should be encouraged to follow the policy.

C.The new policy can help a lot to develop Greenpeace.

D.Beijing is thinking about the plastic pollution seriously.

【5】After reading the passage, we can infer that .

A.people will order more take-out food

B.plastic bags will be widely reused in the world

C.biodegradable plastic shopping bags will become popular

D.there will be more people using paper products in the future
