24、   Since the beginning of history people have used rivers for transportation. The longest one in the United States is the Mississippi. The lifeline of Egypt is the Nile. To the people of India, the Ganges is great, but it is also important for transportation. Ships can travel along it for a thousand miles. Other great rivers are the Congo in Africa and the Mekong in southeastern Asia. The greatest of all for navigation(航海), however, is the Amazon in Brazil. It is so wide and so deep that large ships can go about two thousand miles up it.

Besides transportation, rivers give food, water to drink, water for crops, and chances for fun and recreation for the people who live along their banks. In order to increase the supply of water for crops, engineers sometimes build a dam(坝) across a river and let a lake form behind the dam. Then people can use the water not only to irrigate(灌溉) their fields but also to make electricity for their homes and industries

However, large cities and industries that are located on rivers often cause problems. As the cities grow in size and industries increase, the water in the rivers becomes polluted with chemicals and other materials. People are learning the importance, however, of doing more to keep their rivers clean if they want to enjoy the benefits of them.

【1】Which is NOT true according to Paragraph 1 and 2?

A.Many cities are located on rivers.

26、Tears filled my eyes when I stood in our room. I was washing new jeans and a shirt of my 16-year- old stepson(继子), Brett. He drank a lot last night. The clothing was already dirty.

I was very tired. The clothes were just one thing. He had already kicked a large hole in his bedroom wall. Many windows were broken because of his breaking in to steal money. Brett came to live with us when he was 12 years old. During those four years I had dealt with Brett

as patiently as possible, but inside I was feeling sad. Later, I cheered up again and continued parenting Brett. Still, Brett did not change his behavior.

When Brett was nearly 18, my husband and I decided to send Brett to a boarding school that had very good result with troubled teenagers.

At the graduation ceremony the graduates stood one by one to thank those who had helped them. Each graduate held a rose to give to the person who had meant the most to him or her.

Brett spoke lovingly to me, “You did so much. You were always there, no matter what

happened.You always showed me such love. And I want you to know that I love you for “it”.

Surprised, I stood as Brett placed the white rose in my hand and hugged me hard. At that moment I realized the truth-although I had been angry in my heart toward my stepson, Brett had seen only my actions.

27、Today, air travel is far safer than driving a car on a busy motorway. But still there is a danger that grows every year. Airliners get larger and larger. Some airplanes can carry over 300 passengers. And the air itself becomes more and more crowded. If one large airliner struck into another in midair, 600 lives could be lost.

From the moment an airliner takes off to the moment it lands, every movement is watched on radar screens. Air traffic controllers tell the pilot exactly when to turn, when to climb and when to come down.

The air traffic controllers around a busy airport like London, Heathrow may deal with 2,500 planes a day. Not all of them actually land at the airport. Any plane that flies near the airport comes under the orders of the controllers there. Even a small mistake on their part could cause a terrible accident.

Recently such a disaster almost happened. Two large jets were flying towards the airport. One was carrying 69 passengers from Toronto, the other 176 passengers from Chicago. An air traffic controller noticed on his radar（雷达） screen that the two planes were too close to each other. He ordered one to turn to the right and to climb. But he made a mistake. He ordered the wrong plane to do this. So, instead of turning away from the second plane the first plane turned towards it. Fifteen seconds later, it flew directly in front of the second plane. They avoided each other by the smallest part of a second. The distance between them was less than that of a large swimming pool. This is an example of the danger that grows every year.

【1】The air traffic controllers of an airport _______.

A. control all the planes flying near the airport

B. give orders to planes leaving the airport

C. only deal with the planes that want to land there

D. are allowed to handle 250 planes a day

【2】The danger of air crashes（碰撞） grows every year because ________.

A. airliners are getting larger and air traffic is becoming heavier

B. a pilot does not always hear a controller’s order

C. a controller is likely to make more and more mistakes

D. airports can hardly serve the growing number of airplanes

【3】 The example in the passage is to show that _______.

A. air traffic controllers are often careless

B. air traffic controllers should pay much attention to avoiding accidents

C. it is difficult for airplanes to avoid terrible accidents

D. two planes should not fly too close to each other

28、根据短文内容和首字母提示，在下文空格处填入适当的词使短文完整。(每空一词)

And now six years have already gone by. I have never yet told this story. The companions who met me on my return were well content to see me a【1】. I was sad, but I told them: “I am tired.”

Now my sorrow is comforted a little. That is to say—not entirely. But I know that he did go b【2】 to his planet, because I did not find his body at daybreak. It was not such a heavy body... and at night I love to listen to the stars. It is l【3】 five hundred million little bells.

But there is one extraordinary thing when I drew the muzzle f【4】 the little prince, I forgot to add the leather strap to it. He will never have been able to fasten it on his sheep.

So now I keep w【5】: what is happening on his planet?

Perhaps the sheep has eaten the flower...

At one time I say t【6】 myself: “Surely not! The little prince shuts his flower under her glass globe every night, and he watches over his sheep very c【7】” Then I am happy. And there is sweetness in the laughter of all the s【8】.

But at another time I say to myself: “At some moment or other one is absent-minded, and that is e【9】! On some one evening he forgot the glass globe, or the sheep got out, without m【10】 any noise, in the night...” And then the little bells are changed to tears...

Here, then, is a great mystery. For you who also love the little prince, and for me, nothing in the universe can be the same if somewhere, we do not know where, a sheep that we never saw has--yes or no? -eaten a rose...
