24、 “Life is speeding up. Everyone is getting unwell.”
This may sound like something someone would say today. But in fact, an unknown person who lived in Rome in 53 AD wrote it.
We all love new inventions. They are exciting, amazing and can even change our lives. But have all these developments really improved the quality of our lives?
Picture this. You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings, a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen, the noise from the television is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes blank and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up all night to get it done. How happy do you feel?
Inventions have speeded up our lives so much that they often leave up feeling stressed and tired. Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, who have no telephones, no cars, not even any electricity often seem to be happier? Perhaps because they live simpler lives.
One family in the UK went “back in time” to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today. The grandparents, with their daughter, and grandsons Benjamin, 10 and Thomas, 7, spent nine weeks in a 1940s house. They had no washing machine, microwave, computer or mobile phones.
The grandmother, Lyn, said, “The more things you have, the more difficult life becomes.” The boys said they fought less. Probably, they said, because there was less to fight over, such as their computer. Benjamin also noticed that his grandmother had changed from being a fashionable, beer-drinking granny, to one who cooked things.
【1】In the passage, the writer describes a picture to show that new inventions ________ .
A.have speeded up our lives
B.have improve the quality of our lives
C.may make people feel very happy
D.may bring people some trouble
【2】According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A.People who live far away from noisy cities often seem to be happier.
B.The family had some changes when they lived in a 1940s house.
C.An unknown Roman was sure that the quality of life would get better.
D.With the improvement of our lives, we often feel stressed and tired.
【3】The passage is mainly about ________ .
A.problems with technology
B.the importance of technology
C.changes happening to technology
D.improvements of our lives with technology
25、 Lu Jialei , 14 , from Hangzhou Foreign Language School, won the Chinese Characters(汉字)Dictation Competition on Oct .18. About 160 students took part in it .The host read a word to each of them, saying its meaning and giving sentences .They had to write down the word within half a minute.
To prepare for the contest ,she and her teammates studied the Modern Chinese Dictionary for 10 days. Before that, she had well studied how Chinese words were made up of.
In the final, judges gave her the word“wanluan”and said it means “graceful and beautiful”. She had never heard of that word. But she made a good guess. Chinese characters meaning beautiful often have“女”in them, while many Chinese characters pronounced“luan”have “亦”. So she wrote down “婉娈”. She was right.
Winning the contest was a “surprise”to Lu. “I am not the smartest one,” she said. “But I did the best this time.”

26、Emily and Alex were happy when their family moved to a house with a very big garden.
They could climb up trees, grow flowers and even play badminton. They liked to watch the birds flying among the trees in the garden. They even started to put food out to attract more birds.
Everything was fine for a few days until one afternoon there was a strange bumping noise on a window. Emily went outside and found a small bird dead on the grass. Its neck seemed to be broken.
“It must have flown into the window,” Alex said when his sister Emily called him to have a look. “Ah, yes, look here. You can see the mark where it hit the window. There are a couple of tiny feathers stuck(粘贴) on the window.”
“Poor thing!” Emily said.
During the next month, five more birds died in the same way. “Why would they fly to the windows?” they wondered. Finally they found out the truth. When the birds were flying, they couldn’t see into the rooms. All they saw was the reflection(反射) of the garden.
