24、① I love snakes. My mum does not. Lots of people who are afraid of snakes have never even seen one. So where does the fear come from?

② According to scientists’ experiments, it seems that we’ve evolved (进化) this way—faster to see snakes and faster to learn to fear them.

③ People may not be born afraid of snakes, but we are born able to see them quickly. In tests with pictures, people picked out snakes faster than they could find flowers, birds, and rabbits. It wasn’t just snakes, though. People also found spiders (蜘蛛) and angry faces faster than “safe” things like flowers. It seems like we find things that might be threatening to us faster than things that aren’t.

④ People also learn to fear snakes faster than many other things. After all, if we had to be bitten by a snake to learn that it’s dangerous, we might learn our lesson too late. So it’s important for us to fear snakes. And it matters more to nature. People protect animals they like, not animals they fear. Snakes may not be as cute as cats, but they’re just as important to the environment. If we don’t fear snakes, we may choose to kill instead of avoiding them. Our fears help snakes to live safely.

⑤ How can we deal with our fears to give snakes a chance? Scientists did a research recently where students went on a field trip. Guides helped them find and catch snakes in the forest. Everyone can safely touch and hold a snake. It showed that snakes weren’t so bad when you got to know them. Most people who were afraid of snakes before the field trip aren’t afraid now. In fact, snakes even became some students’ favourite animals. Maybe I should take my mum on the next field trip.

25、Li Yaotang is regarded as one of the most important and widely-read Chinese writers in the 20th century. He wrote under the pen name of Ba Jin. He started writing his first work in the late 1920s. Li was born in Chengdu, Sichuan. He was born in a rich family of officials. As a child, Li was taught to read and write by his mother. In 1920, Li entered Chengdu Foreign Language School to study English. Three years later, Li moved to Shanghai and studied in Dongnan University. On February 15th, 1927, he went to Paris with his friend for further study. After returning to Shanghai in 1928, Ba Jin continued writing and working on translation. His first novel came out in 1929. Then he wrote a lot of famous novel during ten years. Most of Ba Jin’s works could be easily understood by anyone with high school education, which make him one of the easiest modern Chinese writers. Ba Jin died of cancer in Shanghai at the age of 100. His death marked the end of a century for Chinese literature. He was one of the masters of language like Lao She.

26、  Most people follow others blindly mainly under the effect of peer(同龄人) pressure. Some people also feel it safe to follow a large number of people. In some rare cases it might be right to follow the crowd (群众), but in most cases this can be one big mistake. Ninety-five percent of people never succeed because they are following the wrong group. Actually there are reasons why we shouldn’t follow the crowd blindly.  According to a study, people tend to follow the crowd when they aren’t sure about the direction they should take. This means a large number of people could be following others without understanding what’s right and what’s wrong! This attracts more people to follow them and the result is that most people move in a certain direction even if it isn’t right.

A man who wants to be successful always hopes for others’ guidance and he usually follows the same path of most people, but the question this man never asks himself is: are all of those people successful? Of course not! If you want to follow a crowd, then follow a successful one. However, in real life you’ll only find one successful person among hundreds of people, and that’s why following the crowd makes no sense at all.

Most people act without thinking wisely. If you always follow others because

they're greater than you in number, then sooner or later you'll discover that you're

making decisions you might regret later.

However, should we never follow the crowd？No. I'm not trying to say you should never follow the crowd, but instead I'm just asking you to think wisely before you take a decision. If you find others are right, there is no problem in following them, but if you have doubts about the direction they're moving in, don't follow them blindly.

【1】What does the underlined word “rare” mean?

A. A small number of.

B. A large number of.

C. The total number of.

D. The same number of.

【2】A man who wants to succeed should_____________.

A. follow the crowd

B. follow others’ guidance

C. follow a successful person

D. follow the same path of most people

【3】What is the passage mainly about?

A. Ways of finding successful people to follow.

B. Advantages of making a right direction.

C. Examples of not following others blindly.

D. Reasons of not following others balindly.

27、Dear Sir,

Thirty years ago, I walked into your bakery(面包房) and asked for some loaves(块)of bread to sell. At that time I was twelve years old. A young lady was working that day. She gave me five loaves and wished me good luck.

I took the loaves and went out to sell them. It took me all day, but I sold them all. At the end of the day, I had some money. I was the happiest boy in the world as I walked home that evening.

The next day, I went to a bicycle shop. I paid a deposit(定金)on a new bicycle. And then I started my next job—as a newspaper deliver(递送)boy. Soon I could pay the rest of the money for the bicycle and the bike was mine. I was so proud!

Today, I still work in the delivery business. I have a lot of trucks to send goods(货物)all over the country. I live in a beautiful house, but I don’t ride a bicycle these days. I drive a large and nice car.

I do not know who that young lady was. But because she gave me the start, I have become a successful man. I’d like to show my thanks to her.

Yours,

George Jenkins
