24、 A poor boy once went to a ragged(破旧的)school, where his face was well washed. When he returned home, the neighbors looked at him in surprise.
They said, "That looks like Tom Rogers, and yet it can't be, for he is so clean."
After a while, his mother looked at him, and seeing that his face was so clean, she thought that her own face was dirty, and she washed it at once.
The father soon came home from his work, and, seeing his wife and his son so clean, he thought that his face was dirty, and so he followed their example.
Father, mother and son being clean, the mother began to think that the room looked dirty, so she went down on her knees to scrub(擦洗)the floor clean.
A woman lived next door. Seeing so great a change in her neighbors, she thought that her face and her room were very dirty, so she, too, quickly set about cleaning them.
This story shows how two houses and their families were made tidy and comfortable, simply by the example of the clean face of one ragged school boy.
Children, as well as grow-up people, should always set a good example. We never know how much good may be done in that way, nor can we tell how much harm results from a bad example.

【1】The poor boy got his face washed at home.
【2】When the mother saw that his son's face was so clean, she thought that her own face was dirty, and washed it right away.
【3】The boy's father thought the room dirty, so he went down on his knees to clean the floor.
【4】Seeing such a great change in her neighbors, the woman neighbor thought that her face and her room were very dirty.

25、 A computer program that could help catch and even translate messages from aliens in outer space has been developed by a British scientist.
If aliens are discovered one day, scientists fear their language may make it impossible to understand them. But John Elliott of Leeds Metropolitan University in Britain has come up with a program that can figure out the structure(结构)of their language. He thinks that’s the first step in understanding what they are saying.
Dr Elliott’s program would compare an alien language to a database ( 数据库) of 60 different languages in the world to look for a similar structure. He believes that even an alien language will have its own structure. “Language has to be structured in a certain way, or it will be hard to use,” he told New Scientist magazine.
Research had shown that it is possible to know if a signal(信号)carries a language rather than a picture or music.Dr Elliott has gone a step further by finding a way to pick out what might be words and sentences. Because languages have different word orders, Dr Elliott has set up a library of the sentence structures of 60 human languages.
If a message is received from outer space, it could be compared against this database. Scientists would then be able to see if it’s similar to any human language, or a mix of the languages.
However, Dr Elliott also said that in order to translate what the aliens are actually saying, it may still be necessary to have a “code(密码)book”.
【1】Why did Dr Elliott come up with the program?
A.To learn more about outer space.
B.To develop a new language.
C.To help translate messages from aliens.
D.To compare an alien language to human languages.
【2】According to Dr Elliott’s opinion, what’s the first step of understanding an alien language?
A.Coming up with a program.
B.Knowing its structure.
C.Understanding aliens.
D.Discovering aliens.
【3】What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us?
A.Some necessary conditions for making the program work.
B.Dr Elliott’s findings about alien languages.
C.Three important functions of the program.
D.The number of sentence structures of human languages.
【4】How does the program work when it receives a message from aliens?
A.Mix the message with 60 human languages.
B.Translate the message and send it to the database.
C.Pick out the sentence structure and translate it.
D.Compare the message to the database of 60 human languages.
【5】What can we infer from the passage?
A.Not all languages have their own structures.
B.To translate alien languages, there is much work to do.
C.The structure of alien languages is similar to that of human languages.
D.Alien languages are signals carrying pictures and music.
26、The human brain weighs about 1.4 kilograms, but it can hold much more information than most computers. However, there is another difference between humans and computers.
Computers don't forget information they are given, but humans often do. No one remembers everything, and luckily we don't usually have to. But everyone can improve their memory if they want to. Here are some suggestions.
◆Try to use new information immediately(立刻). For example, if you meet someone who says "Hi! I'm Carlos," don't just say "Hello." Repeat the person's name. Say"____"
◆Break a big number into smaller parts. For example, it's hard to memorize (记忆) 109244153. But if you break it into three parts--109/244/153—it becomes easier.
◆Write out what you need to remember over and over again. This will help you keep it in mind longer, especially for memorizing formulas (公式) or facts.
◆Always review information. If you bring what you've learned back to your mind, they become easier to remember. For example, before you go to sleep, it’s a good idea to review the new things you learned that day.
◆Discuss with a friend. It is always easier to remember things through discussions. You can have a discussion about what's right and what's wrong, and it will lead to the right answer.
◆Never tell yourself that you have a bad memory. You can always do something to help improve your memory. And everyone's memory gets better if they use it often enough.
All of the suggestions are helpful. If you follow them, you are certain to improve your memory.
【1】How many suggestions are mentioned in the passage?
A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six.
【2】Which should be put in the blank (空格) in Paragraph 2?

【3】What can help memorize a big number more easily according to the passage?
A. To store it in a computer.
B. To break it into smaller parts.
C. To discuss it with a friend.
D. To review it before you sleep.
【4】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Discussing with friends can help you remember things.
B. Always reviewing information can help you fall asleep.
C. Formulas and facts can help you learn about your brain.
D. Human beings can improve their memory by computer.

27、When I was in college, I remember hearing about a book titled “Looking Out for Number One”. I never read the book, but the title has always stuck with me. I think it was because the title turned me off. I hadn’t been taught to be so selfish that I should be focused on only me . I thought I needed to be helping others and, along the way, I would also be helping myself. Now, I realize I should have at least considered learning more about looking out for number one.
Over 30 years after seeing the book about looking out for number one I’m realizing number one, me, is the person I should be concerned about first. Jeffrey Gitomer asks the question, “Who is the most important person in the world?” Most people answer, the customer. He then asks, if there were only two people left in the world, the customer and you, who would you want to survive ? Now the answer is me.
It makes me sense that if we can’t help ourselves first, we will never be prepared to help others. We all need to learn to control our lives and make the best decisions for ourselves. That will put us in a position to help others in the future . But many of us are slow to understand this.
It has been said that happiness will bring success, but success doesn’t always bring happiness. We all want to be happy and successful. For some of us can be very happy when our basic needs are met and our family are safe. Others will seek high levels of success thinking that will bring happiness. I’m sure we can think of a person who is very successful, according to the world’s standards (标准), but they don’t appear to be happy at all. This is because they have been so busy working for somebody else’s goals that they haven’t considered their own needs.
【1】Who does the writer think is the most important person in the world now?
A. Others B. Himself
C. The customer D. Jeffrey Gitomer
【2】The underlined words“ turned me off” in Paragraph 1 probably mean “________”.
A. made me excited B. made me bored
C. made me surprised D. made me pleased
【3】From the third paragraph we can learn ________.
A. we should help others instead of ourselves
B. we need help others make the best decisions
C. helping others can help control our lives
D. actually few of us understand this idea earlier
【4】 Why do some successful people not feel happy at all?
A. Because they don’t believe success always brings happiness.
B. Because their basic needs are not completely met.
C .Because they seek for too high levels of success.
D. Because they haven’t been working for their own goals.
【5】 The best title for the passage is “______________”.
A. Considering Our Own Needs First
B. The Most Important in the World
C. Helping Others First
D. Happiness and Success
28、Dear Mr. and Mrs. Greaves,
We are very worried about Peter. He has cut three classes this month and has been seen in town in school hours. When he comes to class,he does not put heart into 【1】(he)lessons. He does not seem to understand the work and yet he never asks any questions. The only thing he'd like to do is making up excuses(借)for not having done his homework.
【2】 he has a natural talent for art,he is not even taking any interest in art lessons. This is disappointing,as last year there was a great【3】(improve)in Peter's work and we hoped he might win a scholarship. However,unless he starts to attend school 【4】(regular)and to put more effort into his studies,he will certainly not even meet the requirements for the university course next year.
I would be grateful if you could come into school to discuss this situation further.
Yours sincerely,
Thomas Brooker
(Head teacher)
