24、Recently, people in Brittany, France were shocked by a wild duck. The duck seemed to live a perfectly normal life though he was having a knife stuck in its neck.

People called the duck Donald. He had a red knife handle (柄) sticking out of the left side of his neck. What really shocked those who saw the wild duck was how unaffected (未受影响的) he seemed by the knife handle. He was swimming with other ducks and able to feed normally. People couldn’t believe that.

However, people worried that the knife could become a serious problem with time, so they decided to take it out. Because Donald was in excellent physical shape despite the knife handle, on March 31, people succeeded in catching him. They sent him to the hospital. Doctors helped him take the red knife handle out. He is doing great now.

How did Donald get a knife stuck in his neck? A member of the League for the Protection of Birds said that it could not have happened by accident. Someone hurt the animal in the neck. Local authorities (地方当局) are now trying to find the bad person.

25、根据短文内容，判断句子正（T）误(F)。

What are you going to do if you are in a burning house? How will you escape? Do you know how to save yourself? Please read the following passage.

Escaping from a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save your life. It’s important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family, such as stairways and fire escapes, but not elevators.

From the lower floors of the buildings, escaping through windows is possible. Learn the best way of leaving by windows with the least chance of serious injury.

The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building.

Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed. Or smoke and fire may come into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may get into the room.

On a second or third floor, the best windows for escape are those that open onto a roof . From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto hard ground might end in injury. But shes and grass can help to break a fall.

【1】It’s serious to know how to escape from a fire.

【2】In a fire we can use elevators to come down.

【3】Windows can’t be used when you are waiting for help.

【4】Doors must all be open so that smoke can come into the room.

【5】The passage may help save your life in a fire.

26、Have you had a headache during a test? Have you ever been so worried about something that you have a headache or even can’t sleep at night? If so, then you know what stress is. Stress is what you feel when you are worried about something. This worry in your mind can make your body feel bad. You may feel angry, sad, scared(恐惧的), or afraid—all of which can give you a stomach ache or a headache.

However, there are different kinds of stress. Some kinds of stress are good and others are bad. Good stress might happen when you’re called to answer questions in class or when you have to give a speech. This kind of stress can help you to get things better done. For example, you may do a better job in your test if the stress pushes you to prepare better before the test.

On the other hand, bad stress can happen if the stress lasts too long. You may not feel well if your parents are fighting, if a family member is sick, if you’re having problems at school, or if anything else makes you unhappy every day. That kind of stress isn’t going to help you. And it can actually make you sick.

The best way to face the stress is to have a balanced life. Make sure you keep yourself in mind: Sleep, exercise, leisure(休闲), and food. If you get enough sleep and eat healthily, and if you exercise and leave time for fun, you’ll probably feel less stressed.
