24、阅读下列短文, 从每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

C

One day a man found a cocoon(蚕) of a butterfly in the forest．He sat there for several hours and watched the butterfly．Suddenly, a small opening appeared and the butterfly made its great effort(努力) to force its body through that little hole．Then it seemed to stop making any progress．It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no further.（那个蛹好象忘记了它该怎样做, 也好象停止了挣扎）.

So the man decided to help the butterfly．He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly would come out easily．But to his surprise, the butterfly got a heavy body and very small wings when it came out of the cocoon．

The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would become larger and be able to fly．But neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling(爬) around with a heavy body and small wings．It was never able to fly.

The man was in his kindness, but he didn’t understand the nature rules．Before the butterfly came out of the cocoon, fluid(液体) from its body must be forced into its wings, and then would be ready for flying．It must have a hard struggle(拼搏) to get through the small opening to get its freedom from the cocoon.

Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life．If God allowed us to go through our life without any difficulties, it would make us fail．We would not be as strong as we could have been, we could never fly．

26、   Many people want to buy the newest gadget (小玩意) the fastest car and the most expensive watch-but are these things really worth?

For some people, these things give them status(地位) .They're cool because they have a cool car, or they're better at the newest Xbox game. Lots of people say that buying new things makes them happy, They like having new, pretty,impressive things. The problem is that people don't say happy and the feeling you get when you buy something new disappears. For example, there's a new iPhone. You stop liking your old car. Your friend has Beats in a different color and they're so much nicer! Things get old and outdated. And someone else always has something better.

So, what can you buy and stay happy with? A research suggests that the best thing to spend your extra(额外的) money on is doing things like traveling, learning to cook , speaking a language, skiing or surfing. What about going to the theater, eating at a Michelin star restaurant or climbing a mountain?

In the long term(从长远来看)，people are happier with money they spend on activities than on things. You don't remember what shoes you wore, but you remember running the marathon! When you do new things or things you enjoy, you get life experience and memories. You can share them with people. Even it you don't enjoy the experience. you can learn something and often a little while later you see the god sides of it. At least, it's a story to tell-maybe even a funny one.

So forget about designer clothes and fancy gadget- a new skill or experience lasts longer!

27、① Hello, I’m Frank. I’d like to tell you something about my interest-cooking.

28、阅读短文，根据语篇要求填空，使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词。

An old man 【1】 fishing on the bank of a river. A child came to see him fishing. The old man was really good at fishing and it didn’t take long for 【2】 to catch a full basket of fish. The old man saw that the child was very cute, and he wanted to give her a whole basket of fish. But the child shook her head. The old man was surprised and asked, “Why don’t you want the fish?”

The child answered, “I want the fishing rod (竿) in your hands. ”

The old man asked, ‘’Why do you want the rod?”

“It doesn’t take long to eat all the fish in a basket. 【3】 if I have the fishing rod, I can go fishing by myself and I won’t be afraid of not having any more fish to eat. ”

I think you will certainly say that the child is very smart. Wrong! If she doesn’t know 【4】 to fish, she can not have fish to eat, even though she has the fishing rod. It’s useless to only have a fishing rod. Fishing skills are the most important, not the fishing rod.
