24、A mother wanted to encourage her son to play the piano. She bought tickets to the concert of a great pianist. When the evening arrived,they found their seats near the front of the concert hall and looked at the big piano waiting on the stage(舞台). Soon the mother found a friend to talk to and her son ran off.
At eight o’clock, the lights in the hall became weak, and the concert was set to start. The mother began to look for the boy. Then, she saw her 6-year-old son on stage. He was on the piano bench playing Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.
The mother was very amazed. Before she could get her son back, the famous pianist himself was on the stage and quickly moved to the piano.
“Don’t stop. Keep playing,” he said kindly to the boy. The great pianist reached down with his left hand and began filling in the bass (低音部) part of the song. Soon, his right arm reached around the other side and played a beautiful piece of music. Together, the old pianist and the little boy impressed people with their beautiful music.

25、Have you heard of the word “hygge”? It’s a Danish (丹麦的) word, as well as a lifestyle practiced by Danish people. There is no English word for the exact meaning of hygge, according to Oxford Dictionaries. It might be translated into being comfortable, safe in English, but it is more than that.
Enjoying beautiful music or having a movie night is hygge. Lighting candles or making real tea in china cups—that’s hygge too. There’s nothing more hygge than sitting around a table with your family or friends, discussing the big and small things in life. Hygge focuses on the idea of making ordinary daily activities special or meaningful, according to the BBC.
For Danish people, hygge is a way of fighting the cold winter.In Denmark (丹麦), there can be up to 17 hours of darkness a day in winter, and the average temperature is around 0℃, according to the BBC. As a result, people spend more time indoors and focus on home entertaining.
Now the idea of hygge is traveling abroad and becoming popular in the world. In the United Kingdom and the United States, there are more and more hygge-themed cookbooks and lifestyle guides, as well as Danish restaurants, cafes and bars. “The rest of the world seems to be slowly waking up to what Danes have been wise to for ages,” Helen Russell, author of The Year of Living Danishly, told the BBC.

26、Even kids know that we should wait for the traffic light to turn green before crossing a road, but not everybody follows this basic rule.
“Chinese style road crossing” has become a hot expression recently. Chinese people “cross roads without thinking about traffic lights, so long as they are part of a crowd”, said a post on Sina Weibo.
A CCTV news program showed that in only an hour, more than 600 people ran red lights when crossing a road in Shijiazhuang, Hebei.
Many people say that they jaywalk (乱穿马路) because the red light lasts too long. Such an opinion is supported by a research team at Tongji University.
The team did research on people’s waiting times at different road crossings from 2008 to 2010. They found that Chinese people would wait for 70 to 90 seconds before they lost their patience.
“People are likely to run the red light when the waiting time is longer than they can bear (忍受),”said Ni Ying, a member of the research team.
However, a survey on Sina Weibo shows that nearly half of respondents (调查对象) believe that people jaywalk mainly because they disregard (忽视) rules.
“I always obey(遵守) traffic rules. Time is important but safety should come first,”wrote “Qixiaoe”on Weibo.
Many countries give out punishments to jaywalkers. In Singapore, the maximum can be three months in prison. Some Chinese cities have started taking some actions, too. For example, the first three people in a jaywalking group will be fined (罚款) 50 yuan in Shijiazhuang.
But calling on people to respect rules is more important. “To completely solve the problem, everyone should realize the importance of obeying the traffic rules,”Wang Jianping, a professor at Sichuan University, said to Huaxi Metropolis Daily.
【1】【1】What does the phrase“the team”in Paragraph 5 refer to(指的是)?
A. A CCTV news program.
B. A research group at Tongji University
C. A post on Sina Weibo.
D. Huaxi Metropolis Daily.
【2】【2】How long will Chinese people wait for to cross the road before they lose patience?
A. Less than one minute.
B. About five minutes.
C. Less than one and a half minutes.
D. More than ten minutes.
【3】【3】In the sentence“People are likely to run the red light, we can use ________ to take the place of “be likely to.
A. may B. love to
C. be able to D. be going to
【4】【4】Why do people jaywalk according to the survey on Sina Weibo?
A. Because there are too many people on the road.
B. Because the red light lasts too long.
C. Because people don’t pay much attention to rules.
D. Because people have less patience.
【5】【5】Wang Jianping suggests that we should ______ to solve the problem of jaywalking.
A. punish the jaywalkers
B. disregard the traffic rules
C. reduce the time of red lights
D. call on people to obey the traffic rules
27、“Keep your eyes on your own paper” is one of the rules that Mrs Archer has taught us. It is a simple rule, but it’s not a rule everybody chooses to follow.
This morning, I had an experience with a “rule breaker” during an English exam. I felt somebody was watching me a little too closely. I turned my head quickly and saw James, who sat right behind me. My eyes caught his and he said in a low voice, “I hope you studied for this test!” I gave him a smile, not sure whether he was joking or not, and returned to my test. This time I leaned(倾身)a little more closely towards my paper. “I can’t see!” James said.
“What am I going to do?” I thought to myself. Cheating(欺骗)went against my beliefs. I curled my arm around my answers.
“He’s your friend, and what are friends for?”
“You know it’s wrong.”
I tapped(轻敲/轻拍)the top of my desk, hoping for an easy way out of this matter. No easy answer came. I just knew I had to do what I felt was right, even if it made James mad. So I guarded my paper so that he couldn't see my answers.
When the exam ended, I stood there for a moment, searching for the right words to say to James. “Sorry, James, but you know me well enough to understand how I feel about cheating,” I said slowly and softly. “But maybe I could help you study before the next test.” “OK, Brian,” he smiled. “It might not be easy, but I’ll give it a try.”
I felt happy that my friendship with James hadn’t been destroyed(破坏). Mrs Archer would be proud.
【1】Who was the “rule breaker”?
A.Mrs Archer.
B.James.
C.Brian.
D.A boy on the left.
【2】Which three actions had the same purpose?
①I gave him a smile.
②I leaned a little more closely towards my paper.
③I curled my arm around my answers.
④I tapped the top of my desk.
⑤I guarded my paper so that he couldn’t see my answers.
A.①②③
B.②③④
C.②③⑤
D.③④⑤
【3】Who said the two underlined sentences and in what way?
A.Brian, silently in his mind.
B.James, in a low voice.
C.Mrs Archer, slowly and softly.
D.Brian and James, to each other.
