1、阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。
The world is not hungry, but it is thirsty. It seems strange that nearly 3/4 of the earth is covered with water while we say we are short of water. Why? Because about 97% of water on the earth is sea water which we can’t drink or use for watering plants directly. ①Man can only drink and use 1% of water on the earth. It comes from rivers and lakes. And some of the water is polluted, ②因此我们不能全部利用它。
Now more water is needed. The problem is: can we avoid (避免) a serious water shortage later on? ③首先，我们应该学会怎样节约用水。Secondly, we should find out the ways to reuse it. Scientists have always been making studies in the field. Today, in most large cities, water is used only once and then runs to the sea or rivers. But it can be used again. ④Even if every large city reused its water, still there would not be enough. Thirdly, there is a lot of water in the sea. What we need to do is to separate (分离) the salt from sea water. This is expensive, but it’s already used in many parts of the world. ⑤Scientists are trying to find a cheaper way. So you see, if we can find a way out, we’ll be in no danger of drying up.

24、Small talk is a popular way of getting to know someone, getting into a school or job, or just passing the time. But do you think you’re good at it? If not, then it’s never too late to learn.
Talking about unimportant things like the weather, small talk still plays an important part in our daily life. Brett Nelson gave many reasons in Forbes Magazine.
It’s completely free. It doesn’t matter if you fail, and you never know where it will go—it “can lead to many results, from a pleasant talk to the signing of a million—dollar business deal”, according to Nelson. The benefits to small talk don’t stop there. It can also make us smarter, as a study by researchers at the University of Michigan found that friendly, social interaction（互动）could help us solve problems.
You may be wondering how best to break the ice. If you and the other speaker have something in common, that may also be acceptable to talk about. For example, if the bus you are on is full, you might talk about the reasons why. Complimenting（恭维）someone on their clothing or hair is acceptable; however, if you bring up something like death or serious news, you will turn people off.

25、
Singles Day falls on every November 11th, and this new holiday is one only for people who are still living the single life. China is the only country in the world that has set a special day for singles to celebrate their lives.
Origin of Singles Day
An old story goes that once there were four single men, leading very boring lives. None of them was married, or had lovers, or did anything exciting. They just sat around all day and played Mahjong（麻将）.
One day they played Mahjong from 11 in the morning until 11 at night. During the game, no matter who won, the winning card was always the four columns card（四条）. Even more of a coincidence（巧合）, it was Nov 11, or 11/11. In order to commemorate（庆祝）the day, they nicknamed it Singles Day.
University culture
The main way to celebrate Singles Day is to have dinner with your single friends, but it’s important that each person pays their own way to show their independence. But for many, it’s also an excuse to buy things on Taobao, China’s biggest online shopping platform.
On that day, almost all products are sold at half price. It is said that in just six minutes after midnight, $164 million was spent on Tmall.com.

26、How can philosophy help kids' mental health?
Just as it's important for you to have a healthy body, it's also important to have a healthy mind. For a healthy body, you need to eat healthy food and do some exercise. But how do you keep your mind healthy? Perhaps exploring the meaning of things around us and thinking about how we should act in the world might help. That's called philosophy!
Have you ever wondered about the big things in life, like what is happiness? Or what is true friendship? It's normal for all of us to ask these questions. Usually when you are a kid, your parents try to teach you about these kinds of things. In the 1970s, philosophy professor Matthew Lipman developed a series of activities for the classroom which he called Philosophy for Children (P4C). The aim of these activities is to help children think for themselves about things that matter. The series includes different kinds of activities in which kids discuss different topics: the environment, animal rights, and more. Since kids usually spend more time at school than they do at home, school is a great place for these discussions. The teacher's role is to encourage the students to talk and express their thoughts and beliefs, not to give them the 'answers' – after all, these are the kind of questions to which there are no easy answers!
There is evidence that P4C really does make kids better thinkers and better students. But we thought that the program might also help with the students' mental health. After all, over the past years, mental health problems among children have been increasing. So what if schools carried out the P4C program? Would it have a positive influence on their mental health? This is the question we wanted to answer.
To judge the influence of P4C on children's mental health, we asked three classrooms to take part in our study. Even though our results are promising when it comes to levels of self-determination and anxiety, the P4C program didn't show any influence on depression (忧郁) levels. However, perhaps we could expect an influence on children with clinical depression (a very serious level of depression). Because none of our participants suffered from it, there was not much room for improvement – they were already doing pretty well. There was no important change in how satisfied the children were with their lives, nor with themselves. Perhaps the topics we discussed were not that suitable for this kind of improvement. Another possibility is that their self-respect and life satisfaction won't grow immediately but could do so some time after the end of the program.
【1】According to the passage, what can perhaps keep your mind healthy?
A.Taking part in the study about mental health problems.
B.Developing a series of activities for our self-respect.
C.Encouraging the students to talk about their life satisfaction.
D.Exploring the meaning of things and thinking about how we should act.
【2】P4C is to help children ________.
A.have a healthy body and mind B.think about the important things
C.spend more time talking at school D.answer the difficult questions
【3】What can we learn from the passage?
A.It's normal for all of children to ask stupid questions.
B.P4C has a negative influence on kids' mental health.
C.P4C really helps children be a better thinkers and students.
D.The study increased the levels of self-determination.
【4】The writer probably agrees that after the study ________.
A.kids' self - esteem will grow immediately B.P4C helps with the students' mental health
C.P4C showed influence on depression levels D.the topics are suitable for kids' satisfaction
27、 People around the world love their pets. Cats are very popular. Their strange and funny behavior has made them really popular on the Internet, too. And English has many cat expressions.
Today we talk about one that is about canaries（金丝雀）. With the beautiful feathers and lovely bird-song, many people keep them as pets. Some cats like to catch such small birds. So, if a cat eats one, it may have a look on its face that shows both pride and guilt（内疚）. The cat was happy when it did it even if it was wrong.
If I look very proud but a little guilty for doing something, others can say that I “look like the cat that ate the canary”. This means, “I should not have done it, and I know it was wrong. But I am still pleased with myself!”
When using this expression, don’t forget the guilt part. If you have a friend who didn’t study hard but still passed the test because she cheated and still looked proud of it… then the expression will work quite well.
Now, we use this expression in other situations. When we have a secret, we may look hike the cat that ate the canary. We also use it when we feel smug. It means you are too proud of yourself. This kind of people are also hiding something from others or simply not telling all the details.
【1】What does the underlined word “smug” in Paragraph 5 probably mean in Chinese ________.
A．自豪的
B．内疚的
C．不以为然的
D．自鸣得意的
【2】Which paragraph shows how this expression “look like the cat that ate the canary” is created?
A．Paragraph 2.
B．Paragraph 3.
C．Paragraph 4.
D．Paragraph 5.
【3】Why can cats be popular on the Internet?
A．Because they are proud and guilty.
B．Because they are lovely and beautiful.
C．Because they can catch the small birds.
D．Because they have strange and funny behavior.
【4】What can be learned from the last paragraph?
A．We use this expression in only one situation.
B．We shouldn’t be too pleased with ourselves.
C．We can use this expression in other situations.
D．We should try to hide something from others.
【5】What would be the best title for the text?
