24、 When taking an elevator, do you often push the “close” button? You hope by pushing it, the elevator door will close faster. But what if the button is actually fake(假的)?
Karen Penafiel is the executive director(执行董事)of the US National Elevator Industry. She said that elevators’ “close” buttons are a complete trick, at least in the US, and that doors will not close any faster no matter how hard you push.
In the 1990s the Americans with Disabilities Act(《美国残疾人法案》)was passed in the US. It means all elevators have to stay open long enough to allow disabled(残疾的)people to enter. Only US firefighters and elevator workers can really use the buttons with special keys.
But the buttons aren’t completely useless. According to psychologists(心理学家), fake buttons can make you feel better. They give you a sense of control that can help reduce stress. That’s why some other buttons in our lives are fake, too.
For example, many offices in the US have fake thermostats(温控器). People may feel better when they think they can control the temperature in their workspace.
You were told that traffic light buttons could help make the traffic signals change faster. But they may not really work either.
However, even when people know these little “white lies”, they still push fake buttons. As long as the doors finally close, it seems worthy.
John Kounios is a psychology professor at Drexel University in the US. He told The New YorkTimes that he always pushes the traffic light buttons. “After all, I’ve got nothing else to do while waiting. So why not push the button on the off chance that this one will work?”
【1】You push the “close” button in the US, the elevator door will ________.
A.close immediately B.not be completely open
C.play a trick on you D.not close as fast as you wish
【2】The US, in order for disabled people to go in safely, ________.
A.elevator workers will press the “open” button for them
B.they will be given a special key to use in the elevators
C.all elevators are designed to open long enough
D.no “close” button is fixed on the elevators
【3】Which of the following is NOT mentioned as fake?
A.Thermostat buttons. B.Elevator buttons.
C.Traffic light buttons. D.Power buttons.
【4】There are quite a few fake buttons in our lives because they can ________.
A.control people’s senses B.help people feel better
C.control the temperature D.tell “white lies”
【5】The underlined words “on the off chance” in the last paragraph most probably mean “______”.
A.with the little hope B.without any plan
C.with a great opportunity D.without any possibility
【6】The best title for the passage is ________.
A.Button pushing society B.Useless buttons
C.Buttons for disabled people D.Fake elevator buttons
25、Most of us feel younger or older than we really are. This “subjective age” is simply based on the way we feel inside. Scientists find that “subjective age” is the key to understanding why some people appear to be energetic as they age—while others do not. What’s more, studies have shown that you really are only as old as you feel in some real ways.
One interesting study has discovered our subjective age is connected with our personality. It is now well-accepted that people tend to become less open to new experiences while ageing. However, such personality changes are less pronounced in people with a younger heart and more noticeable in people with older subjective ages. Moreover, people with younger subjective ages become more careful and make fewer mistakes. But the connection between health and subjective age almost certainly acts in both directions; If you often feel upset, you are likely to feel older; The result could be a vicious cycle (恶性循环). In this way, the effect of subjective age on health is stronger than that of actual age.
When do we start to feel that our minds and bodies are running on different timescales? And why does it happen? One study finds that most children and teenagers feel older than they really are. But this changes at around 26, when 70% of them would feel younger. Some researchers argue that a lower subjective age is a form of self-defense. Believing “I may be 65 but I only feel 50” would mean you are less worried about your performance at work, for example. This thinking helps people free themselves from the society’s sad view of ageing.
With these findings, it is possible that in the future, science might be able to reduce people’s subjective age and improve their health as a result.
【1】According to the passage, subjective age ________.
A.will not change when you get older
B.is simply based on how others think of you
C.is the number of years you have lived
D.results from your personal feelings of ageing
【2】What does the underlined word “pronounced” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.发声的

C.明显的
D.有条件的
【3】What can we learn from the passage?
A.People with older subjective ages are healthier.
B.More people will have older subjective ages after 26.
C.Actual age has a stronger effect on people’s health condition.
D.A lower subjective age may help people do better in their work.
【4】We can infer from the passage that ________.
A.future science will stop us from getting old
B.most children and teenagers feel older than they really are
C.there are many secrects hidden in our brains
D.our society doesn’t think highly of old people’s work.
26、 Something unexpected happened in the summer of my eleventh year. The home I had grown up in burned to the ground in the middle of the night. Thankfully, my mom, dad, grandma, brothers and I escaped (幸免于难) along with our dogs. Yet, we had nothing but the night clothes we were sleeping in. I spent the rest of that night with a friend of our family. I tried unsuccessfully to sleep in a bed in his house. I was too scared.
The next day my mom brought me a few T-shirts and pairs of jeans that another friend gave to her. One pair of them was too short and the other pair too long, but I didn't care. At least I had some clothes again. My dad returned to our broken home to see what he could find. The only thing he could save was my mom's rings.
To spend the summer my dad rented (租借) us a big house on the same road as our old house had been. As we moved in, our friends and our community continued to donate ( 捐 赠 ) all they could to help us get back on our feet. There were more clothes, furniture (家具), food, money, and even some books for me to read. Love was around us.
Looking back now I am thankful for all we went through that summer because it taught me so much about life, love and people. It showed me that when you have nothing left but love, for the first time you see that love is enough.

27、 You must have read or heard of the sad love story between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu.But can you imagine the two singing opera in English instead of speaking poetic(有诗意的) Chinese?
Jia and Lin are two characters from the classic Chinese novel A Dream of Red Mansions(《红楼梦》 ), written by Cao Xueqin(_________)—1763 ).Now the book has been made into an English language opera. The opera was first performed last September in San Francisco, the US. This month it came to Beijing, Changsha and Wuhan.
Many of the opera’s creators have backgrounds in both Chinese and American cultures, including the director and playwrights( 剧作家 ).Their understanding of both cultures helped them to change a Chinese classic into a foreign-language opera.
The book, which covers the rise and fall of the Jia family, has 120 chapters and hundreds of characters. But the opera writer David Henry Hwang reduced the number of characters to just seven. Hwang, a Chinese-American, focused on the love story between Jia and Lin and tried to write a heartbroken tragedy that everyone would understand.
The art director Timmy Yip, from Hong Kong, tried to help foreign people understand the characters using costumes(服装)and stage settings(布景).He compared Lin to water and gave her a light green costume. When Lin shows up on the stage, there is usually water around her on the stage.
The creators consider it to be a meaningful job to introduce a Chinese classic to Western audience. Hwang told China Daily he was happy to “have made a contribution to the land where my parents were born”.
【1】 wrote the opera for the Chinese classic novel A Dream of Red Mansiorns.
A.Lin Daiyu B.Cao Xueqin

B.they thought the book was not good enough
