24、Many people go to school for an education. They learn languages, history, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything from school; no matter how much the teacher knows, he cannot teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.
It is always more important to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula(公式).
It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a maths problem. Great scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Galileo didn’t get everything from school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind. The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. They would ask many questions at what they read and they did thousands of experiments.
【1】What do many people go to school for?
A. Teaching. B. Books.
C. Learning languages. D. An education
【2】The teacher’s job is to teach ______.
A. everything the students want to know
B. students everything he knows

【3】Einstein, Newton and Galileo did so many things for mankind because _______.
A. they learned a lot at school
B. they learned everything inside and outside school
C. they were so useful
D. they went to college and learned from professors
25、Do you like listening to music? Do you often turn up the music when you’re using earphones? If so, your hearing may have been damaged(损坏).
The World Health Organization (WHO) is worried that 1.1 billion children and young people are damaging their hearing by listening to loud music. Nearly half the young people in developed countries may lose their hearing because of the "unsafe use" of music players, including smartphones. Loud music in nightclubs, parties and at sports also make it worse. The WHO advises young people to listen to music for just one hour a day. Dr. Etienne Krug told BBC: "What we're trying to do is to draw people's attention to a problem that is not talked about enough." He said it's easy to solve this problem.
Dr. Krug said keeping the music down and limiting (限制) the listening time to less than one hour a day would save a lot of people's hearing. However, he also said, "Even an hour can be too much if the music is too loud.” Ralph Holme, a researcher, explained how loud noise can damage ears. He said: "Loud sounds damage your hearing by killing off thousands of little hair cells(细胞) in the inner ear. The cells can tell different sounds through vibration(振动). But they are very fragile—they get damaged easily and even die if they vibrate too much because of loud sounds for too long.” He warned: "The bigger problem is they don't grow back and the ear can no longer get sound."
No one wants to lose their hearing! Therefore, next time when you listen to music, make sure it's not too loud and only listen for less than an hour. You can enjoy your music much better in this way.
【1】How are the children and young people damaging their hearing?
A.By using smartphones.
B.By going to the party.
C.By listening to loud music.
D.By talking with friends.
【2】How long does WHO advise young people to listen to music a day?
A.For a long time.
B.For just one hour.
C.For half of the day.
D.For more than one hour.
【3】What does the word “fragile” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Weak.
B.Clever.
C.Small.
D.Strong.
【4】From the passage we can learn that __________.
A.keeping the music down would save young people's hearing
B.the damaged cells can grow back and the ear can get sound
C.young people lose their hearing because of going to the nightclubs
D.the problem of young people's hearing damage is talked about enough

27、 Who invented the umbrella? There are many different opinions. Some people say that the people of ancient Egypt invented it, some say the Romans invented it and some say Luban's wife invented it in ancient China. There's even an interesting story about its invention in China.
Luban was the most famous craftsman (工匠) in ancient China. One day, Luban and his wife were taking a walk and enjoying the beautiful view. Suddenly it began to rain. Both of them were soaked when they got back home. Luban's wife said, "If there is something that can protect people from the rain when they are walking outdoors, it will be wonderful." Then Luban said, "That's easy. I will build many pavilions (亭)." His wife replied, "That's a good idea, but it is not convenient. Is it possible to make a movable (可移动的) pavilion, which could always follow the people?" She thought all day and all night. One day, she saw some kids playing in the rain, and each kid held a big lotus leaf (荷叶) over the head to protect themselves from getting wet. That gave her a great idea. Then, she made the first umbrella in ancient China.
Since the umbrella was invented, it has been part of people's life in every corner of the world. Right now, there are many kinds of umbrellas, such as beach umbrellas, kids umbrellas and market umbrellas.
How many umbrellas are made every year in the world? Maybe millions or even more. One interesting thing is that most umbrellas in the world are made in China. Shangyu in Zhejiang Province alone has more than 1,000 umbrella factories and it is called "China Umbrella City".

28、阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
When you see quite 【1】 beautiful girl on the street, which word will you use to describe the beauty of her? In Chinese, we may use these Chinese sayings as Chenyuluoyan or Biyuexiuhua. However, do you know where the proverbs are from?
In Chinese ancient history, there were four well-known beauties 【2】 (name) Xishi, Wang Zhaojun, Diaochan and Yang Yuhuan. Here are two stories about Xishi and Wang Zhaojun.
Xishi lived during the Spring and Autumn period. One day, she went to a river 【3】 (wash) silk with her friends. Some fish were swimming in the clear water. When the fish saw Xishi, they 【4】 (swim) down to the bottom of the water 【5】 (quick). The fish were shocked by the beauty of Xishi and felt embarrassed of 【6】 (they).
Wang Zhaojun lived during the Han Dynasty. The king of Han wanted to send her to the king of the enemy country 【7】 a gift. A few days later, while Wang was on the way with a group of guards, something interesting happened. There was a wild goose 【8】 (fly) above the head Wang Zhaojun. It was so shocked by the beauty of Wang that it even forgot to flap wings. Then it fell down heavily into the forest.
Nowadays, if a 【9】 (girl) beauty is overwhelming (势不可挡的), we can say she is the one 【10】 “can make the fish sink and the wild goose fall”.
