24、   Most of us fear failure. However, without failure, progress would be impossible. In fact, the word success comes from the Latin succedere, meaning “to come after.” And what does success usually come after? Failure. It seems that one cannot exist without the other.

Every failure – even the worst ones – helps us learn to do things differently in the future. “Learning from the past mistakes and making changes helped me to reach the top of Everest successfully,” says mountaineer Pete  Athans, who  has now reached  the world’s  highest peak (山峰) seven times. Failure also reminds us that things can go wrong – sometimes with terrible results.

Austrian Gerlinde Kaltenbrunner is the first woman to reach the top of all 14 of the world’s 8,000-meter peaks without extra oxygen (氧气). In 2007, while climbing in Nepal, she was in an avalanche ( 雪 崩 ). She survived, but two nearby Spanish climbers died. The experience taught Kaltenbrunner that no matter how prepared a person is, bad things can still happen. But Kaltenbrunner decided she had to learn from her experience and move on.

Accepting failure is not easy for many, though. We are often reluctant to tell people that we are failures because our good name depends on success. However, things are slowly changing. In the past ten years, some scientific magazines – mostly in medicine – have published reports of failed experiments. The belief is that the science community can also learn from “negative” results and that this can finally lead to positive outcomes.

The business world already understands the value of negative results. Eli Lilly and Company has failure parties to study data about medicine that doesn’t work. In fact, one of the business world’s most famous failures became one of its biggest successes. In the early 1990s, Apple Corporation created the Apple Newton. It was one of Apple’s biggest failures. However, Apple’s CEO, Steve Jobs, believed the product had potential (潜力) and he began to improve it. In time, this led to the creation of the iPhone and the iPad, two of the company’s most successful products.

The story of the Apple Newton can teach us another important lesson about failure. There is a lot we can learn by studying mistakes. Perhaps the most important lesson is that failure and success are two sides of the same coin. One truly cannot exist without the other.

【1】The writer writes Paragraph 2 and 3 mainly to   .

A.show how bad things can become important lessons

B.tell us that it’s possible for anyone to be successful

C.prove how bad things can happen in any situation

D.teach us what not to do when climbing mountains

【2】The underlined word “reluctant” in Paragraph 4 probably means “   ”.

A.unable B.unsure C.unwilling D.uninterested

【3】What is the passage mainly about?

A.An attitude towards failure.

B.The experience of success.

C.A difficult way to success.

D.The rewards of failure.

25、   Many kids do homework such as doing the dishes, making the bed, and folding the clothes. In exchange they get some money or other computer time.

Paying kids for housework is one of the most popular topics, especially at a time when everyone is more careful about money. Some parents think since adults are paid to do their jobs, we should pay kids for everyday housework.

But some people don't think kids should get rewards (报酬)for doing housework. Susie Walton, an expert, believe that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn't worth doing unless you get something in return. “Running any kind of housework is a team effort,” Walton said. “A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house, and families decide how they want their home to look, and how they are going to keep it looking like what they want.”

Other people believe that getting a reward encourages kids to do housework, and it also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to get money. There are also apps(程序) that gives kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed(兑现) either online or in the real world. “Our goal is to give kids lawful power so they can get rewards,” says Chris Bergman. “And kids need rewards to help encourage them.”

【1】Which of the following housework is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 1?

A.Washing the dishes. B.Cooking meals.

C.Folding the clothes. D.Making the bed.

【2】The underlined phrase “in return” in paragraph 3 has the same meaning as “________”.

A.as a reward B.for punishment C.on sale D.under control

【3】According to Chris Bergman, kids should be encouraged to ________.

A.do housework without rewards B.do more housework

C.stay away from housework D.do housework be getting rewards

【4】Which is the best title for the passage?

A.Kids Should Study as Well as Doing Housework

B.Let Children Do Some Housework

C.Should Kids Be Rewarded for Doing Housework

D.Doing Housework Is Good for Children's Study

27、Scientists have worked for twelve years to develop what they call Green Super Rice. The “green” in Green Super Rice means environmentally friendly. “Super” means the rice can grow well in bad soil conditions and keep away insects and diseases. Researchers say it will produce at least as much grain as other rice plants but with fewer inputs.

Modern rice plants produce two to three times more grain than that was possible before the 1960s, but they also require large amounts of water and chemical fertilizers. In the 1960s, scientists created crops that produced bigger harvests in what became known as the Green Revolution. It helped many people to get rid of hunger. But modern rice plants require too much water and too much use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides that can hurt the environment. And farmers may be too poor to buy these things to grow modern rice plants.

The developers of Green Super Rice do not use genetic engineering. In that way they avoid the high costs as well as the problems connecting with getting permission to plant genetic crops.

Anna McClung leads a rice-breeding center for the United States Agriculture Department. She praises the researchers working on Green Super Rice. But she also says that combining many different genes into one plant without genetic engineering requires a lot of plant breeding.

The research is still going on. The researchers on the Green Super Rice project continue to help farmers produce more with less.

【1】When did the scientists begin to work on Green Super Rice?

A．In the late 19th century.

B．In the early 20th century.

C．In the late 20th century.

D．In the early 21st century.

【2】What does the second paragraph tell us?

A．The beginning of modern rice.

B．The advantages and disadvantages of modern rice.

C．The ways of creating and growing modern rice.

D．Modern rice and our everyday life.

【3】Why isn’t genetic engineering used to develop Green Super Rice?

A．Because doing so can reduce the costs.

B．Because scientists don’t want to do so.

C．Because the technology isn’t perfect.

D．Because this kind of rice doesn’t need it.

【4】What does Anna McClung think of Green Super Rice?

A．She thinks the researchers should use genetic engineering.

B．She thinks different greens should be combined into more than one plant.

C．She thinks we needn’t develop Green Super Rice.

D．She thinks it is not easy to develop Green Super Rice.

【5】What is the main difference between modern rice and Green Super Rice?

A．Modern rice is better for the environment.

B．Green Super Rice is better for the environment.

C．Modern rice is much more important than Green Super Rice.

D．Green Super Rice doesn’t taste delicious.

28、阅读下面短义，根据首字母提示填空。

Not long ago, I made a d【1】 to read a lot of books to get more knowledge. So I went to the library and returned happily with several books. But after a few days, I felt impatient.

Reading is a journey of spirit. Every time we read a book, we are actually talking with the writer, I tried to p【4】 all my attention to his or her books, so I could feel all of his or her happiness and sufferings. Now books have become a part of my life.

Someone once said, “ A【5】 the situation is bad, people still have a chance to choose their attitude.” So, don’t complain about study or work.It helps nothing.

Try to see things from a different way. This will change the situation and help you a lot.
