24、When the great library of Alexandria was burned, the story goes that one book was saved. But it was not a valuable book, and a poor man bought it for a few coins.

The book wasn’t very interesting, but between its pages there was something very interesting. It was a thin paper on which was written the secret of the touchstone (试金石)! The touchstone was a small pebble (卵石) that could turn any common metal into gold.

The writing explained that it was lying among thousands of other pebbles that looked exactly like it. But the secret was this: The real stone would feel warm, while ordinary pebbles were cold.

So the man sold his house, bought a tent, camped on the seashore, and began testing pebbles. He thought that if he picked up ordinary pebbles and put them down again, he might pick up the same pebble hundreds of times. So, when he felt one that was cold, he threw it into the sea. He spent a whole day doing this but none of them was the touchstone. Yet he went on and on this way. Pick up a pebble. Cold—throw it into the sea. Pick up another. Throw it into the sea. The days turned into months and the months into years.

One day, however, about midafternoon, he picked up a pebble and it was warm. He threw it into the sea before he realized what he had done. He was used to throwing each pebble into the sea as soon as he picked it up. So when the one he wanted came along, he still threw it away.

So it is with opportunity. Unless we are vigilant, it’s easy to fail to recognize an opportunity when it is at hand. And it’s just as easy to throw it away.

【1】Why did the poor man buy the book?

A．Because it was very cheap.

B．Because it has great stories.

C．Because there was a secret in the book.

D．Because he wanted work by the sea.

【2】How did the man probably feel when he realized it was the touchstone?

A．Tired.

B．Moved.

C．Interested.

D．Regretted.

【3】What’s the meaning of the underlined word “vigilant” in the last paragraph?

A．brave enough

B．strong enough

C．careful enough

D．kind enough

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

A．Opportunity knocks but once.

B．Practice makes perfect.

C．Where there is a will, there is a way.

D．Truth comes from practice.

25、When trouble comes, what do we usually do? We pick up our mobile phones and call for help. That’s easy, right? But in an emergency, many people are unable to call for help. Floods and earthquakes come suddenly. Wars can hurt or kill. Successful communication can sometimes mean the difference between life and death.

Meet French NGO Telecoms Sans Frontiers (Telecommunications Without Borders (边际)). Its goal is to use mobile communication technology (技术) to help people in need. TSF began in 1998. First, they opened their main base (总部) in France. Then in 2003, they started another base in Nicaragua. The next year they opened their Thailand base. Now if a disaster hits anywhere in the world, TSF is ready. They can send workers to a disaster area to set up communication systems within 24 hours.

Once TSF arrives at a disaster area, they set up telephone connections (连接点）and Internet service. They share these services with other international helpers on the scene such as the UN or UNICEF. Mobile communication helps other volunteers do their jobs better.

TSF also offers three-minute phone calls to local people who need to contact their loved ones. These communications can allow people to get together again after being separated (分开). Often the callers are moved to tears after speaking to a relative found to be still alive. Then the families can decide on a safe course of action for their family members.

Since 1998, TSF has helped thousands of people in many countries. Most of the TSF workers does not get paid with money, but the satisfaction（满足）of helping others and changing lives is often a great reward.
