24、Every summer morning, I know I am going to my favourite place to volunteer and make a difference in someone’s life just by being with him or her-----a summer school for children with autism(孤独症)。

By helping the kids read or do math, I am not only teaching important skills but also helping them feel like any other kid. There are many wrong ideas about autism. The kids I work with can think and feel. They need help only in certain areas.

Of course, each kid is special. For example, some kids like to draw, and others like to sing.

At the school, the kids learn through about 20 activities. These activities can help them learn skills they will need later in life.

The very first day I volunteered, a boy came up to me, put his hand on my shoulder and said “Hello.” From then on, I knew I could make a difference.

Another boy loved to have me read books that can help him learn to read. Sometimes he could be encouraged to read a few words or sentences. Finally, one day during reading practice, he read nearly 220 words himself!

Summer school is also a time for fun. Last summer, bagpipe(风筝)players came to perform. Most of us had our hands over our ears because they were so loud. When they asked for a volunteer from the audience, one girl raise her hand as high as she could, got up on stage and even tried the bagpipes in front of everyone.

Through these experiences, I realize that the challenges these kids face do not stop them from doing many amazing things. I’m teaching them, but they are teaching me as well.

【1】According to Paragraph 2, many people think those kids______________

A. can’t read or do math

B. don’t have important skills

C. don’t play with other kids

D. can’t think or feel

【2】The writer believed he could make a difference when______________

A. a boy let him read books 

B. a boy greeted him actively

C. a boy could read by himself

D. a girl tried the bagpipes

【3】What does the writer mainly talk about in the passage?

A. His teaching experience in a summer holiday

B. How to make a difference in others’ lives

C. His experience as a volunteer in a special summer school

D. What the life of the children with autism is like

25、Niangao, also known as year cake or Chinese New Year’s cake, is a popular dessert eaten during Chinese New Year. Because the pronunciation of niangao sounds like “higher year”, it is considered good luck during the Chinese New Year.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, the whole country was divided into different small kingdoms and people suffered from the wars. At that time, Suzhou was the capital of the Wu Kingdom. Strong walls were built to protect Wu people. All of the people stopped worrying about the war, except for the Prime Minister Wu Zixu. He told his entourage(随从), “The strong wall is a good protection, but if the enemy fights with us, they can’t go inside, but we can’t go outside, either. If we eat up all the food, we will die from hunger. So remember to dig a hole under the wall.” Many years later, after Wu died, his words came true.

During the war, the army did what Wu Zixu had told them before and found that the wall under the earth was built with special bricks(砖) made from glutinous rice flour(糯米粉). This food saved many people from hunger. These bricks were the earliest niangao.

After that, people made niangao every year in memory of Wu Zixu. As time passed, niangao became the known Chinese New Year’s cake.

D．Good luck

【2】According to the passage, what was the earliest niangao made of?

【3】Why did Wuzixu tell his entourage to dig a hole under the wall?

A．Because the strong wall is a good protection.

B．Because there are special bricks made from glutinous rice flour.

C．Because the wall can stop them from going outside.

D．Because the food saved many people from hunger.

【4】The best title of this passage may be _________ .

26、She was returning from teaching out in a small community . It was a moonless night, and a heavy snow was falling.

She remembered back to when she had first started teaching out in small communities. In those days she had always picked up hitchhikers (搭便车者), until the day her sister told her of a friend who had been shot (中枪) in the head by a hitchhiker, all because she had stopped out of kindness to help him during a storm.

Her family didn’t become concerned (关心的) about her safety over the hitchhikers until the family heard the promise: “No more hitchhikers!” The snow that night was making her think back to this.

Then she saw a man waving. She slowed down for him, but now as he ran toward the car in the dark she shook with fear. Yet she thought that if he was truly in need she couldn’t leave him here in this storm.

When he reported back to her that a family member would soon come for him, she wished him well and left.

27、   Five years later, Aladdin became the owner of a shop in the market and three market-sellers worked for him. The sellers liked Aladdin because he was good to them, as well as the market children as he gave them money when he walked past. Everybody liked Aladdin.

Aladdin’s mother never called her son a good-for-nothing now. They lived in a nice house near the gardens and she had many beautiful things which she could hardly dream of before. But only Aladdin and his mother knew about the magic lamp and the jinnee.

One day a noise stopped Aladdin. ‘The Sultan’s daughter is coming,’ he heard. ‘Princess Badr-al-Budur is coming!’

A litter which was decorated by countless jewelry and carried by six slaves showed up in the street. All the people forgot to walk, staring at her. ‘Princess! Princess Badr-al-Budur!’ a hooray burst suddenly.

Aladdin watched in the crowd when the litter came past him, and he saw the Princess’s face. Her skin was as white as milk with big-dark eyes shining like diamonds in black velvet. Her silky hair with tiny gold bells was the only thing in Aladdin’s eyes. The litter disappeared, but for some minutes he did not move.

Then he ran home, “Mother! Mother! I saw the Sultan’s daughter, Princess Badra-Budur, in the street.” Aladdin’s face was pale.

“But, Aladdin ...”

“No ‘buts’, Mother. I love the Princess and I want to marry her. Go to the Sultan and ask for me.”

“Me? Go to the Sultan’s palace? No, no, no,” Aladdin’s mother said, “Listen, my son. The daughters of a Sultan do not marry poor boys from the city.”

“But we are not poor now, Mother. And we can give the Sultan something for his daughter. Wait!”

Aladdin went away and got the fruit from the magic garden under the ground. Now, of course, he knew it was not fruit, but jewels in different sizes and colors.

“Take these jewels, Mother, on a gold plate,” he said, “and give them to the Sultan.”

Can you climb trees? Maybe your parents ever told you,  “Don’t climb trees. It’s d  【1】  .” But Xiamen University is going to have a new class： Tree-climbing.

Zhu Chongshi, the president of Xiamen University, once visited Cornell University in New York, and he was surprised a  【2】  the course there.

In Tree-climbing class, the teachers do not just let the students c  【3】only with their hands. They teach the safety skills like t  【4】 used in rock-climbing. Students wear special caps and clothes to protect t  【5】  . And they use ropes so that they can not f  【6】   and get hurt. The class is very useful.
