24、I am Jim Hawkins and my story begins many years ago, when my father worked at the Admiral Benbow inn.

One day a tall man with a scar (疤痕) on his face arrived. He opened the door of the inn, singing the song I know so well:

“Fifteen men on the dead man’s chest-Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum!”

“A glass of rum,” he said when he came inside.

“This is a pleasant inn,” he said, “Do you have many customers (顾客)?”

“Not many,” my father answered.

“Well, this is the place for me. You can call me ‘captain’.” he said. The he asked a man to carry his large sailor’s chest to his room. “I’m a simple man,” he told my father, “Rum and bacon and eggs is all I want. Here are four gold coins to start. Tell me when I have to pay more.”

During the day he went to the cliffs with his telescope (望远镜) and in the evening he sat by the fire drinking rum and water. He asked about sailors every day. We soon understood that he wanted to avoid them. When a sailor visited the inn, the captain was always very quiet. One day he asked me:

“If you see a sailor with one leg, tell me as soon as he arrives.”

When the captain drank too much rum, he sang sea-songs and told the other customers terrible stories about his violent life at sea.

He stayed month after month, but he didn’t give my father any more money. My poor father was too frightened to ask. Everyone was frightened of the captain and his stories. The only person who was not afraid of him was the local doctor and magistrate, Dr. Livesey.

“If you keep drinking rum like that, you will very soon be dead,” he warned the captain.

26、A number of amazing plants grow in the nature world, including bamboo. Many people prefer to call it a tree because of its shape and size. In fact, it is a kind of grass.

Like other kinds of grass, a bamboo plant may be cut very low to the ground, but it will grow back very quickly. A Japanese scientist recorded one bamboo plant which grew almost 1.5 meters in 24 hours! Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe. There are more than 1,000 kinds of bamboo which grow around the world on both mountains and plains(平原).

Not all bamboo looks the same. Some are very thin. They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across. This plant also comes in a variety of colors, from gold to black to green.

Bamboo has been used to make many things, such day-to-day items as hats and kitchen tools. Because it is strong, bamboo can also be used to build buildings.

Many Asian countries have been using bamboo for hundreds of years. They often use bamboo for building and supporting new buildings while they are being built. The cables(缆绳) which hold up the hanging bridge across the Min River in Sichuan, China are made of bamboo. The bridge has been in use for more than 1,000 years, and it is still holding strong.

As we know, pandas feed on the plant of bamboo. But not all the bamboos fill their appetite(胃口); only about 20 kinds of them can be their fine food.

【1】There are over ________ kinds of bamboo around the world.

A．1,000

B．20

C．30

D．24

【2】Bamboo grows almost everywhere across the world except ________.

A．China

B．Sichuan

C．Europe

D．Japan

【3】The word “day-to-day” in the fourth paragraph means ________.

A．holiday

B．everyday

C．someday

27、   A team of engineers at Harvard University has been inspired by Nature to create the first robotic fly. The mechanical fly has become a platform for a series of new high-tech systems. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.

“It’s extremely important for us to think about this as a whole system and not just the sum of a bunch of individual components (元件),” said Robert Wood, the Harvard engineering professor who has been working on the robotic fly project for over a decade. A few years ago, his team got the go-ahead to start piecing together the components. “The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of those components are off the shelf (现货供应) and so we have to develop them all on our own,” he said.

They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencie(相互依赖) on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything it’s connected to,” said Wood. The flight device was built into a set of power, computation (计算), sensing and control systems. Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufactured. 

While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-board (外置的) power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source, so that it might someday perform data-gathering work at rescue sites, in farmers’ fields or on the battlefield. “Basically it should be able to take off, land and fly around,” he said.

Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications. “You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots instead,” he said. “So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day-to-day basis.”

【1】The difficulty the team of engineers met with while making the robotic fly was that ______.

A.they had no model in their mind B.they did not have enough time

C.they had no ready-made components D.they could not control flight tasks

【2】It can be inferred from paragraphs 3 and 4 that the robotic fly ______.

A.consists of a flight device and a control system

B.can just fly in limited areas at the present time

C.can collect information from many sources now

D.has been put into wide application

【3】Which of the following can be learned from the passage?

A.The robotic flyer is designed to learn about insects.

B.Animals are not allowed in biological experiments.

C.There used to be few ways to study how insects fly.

D.Wood’s design can replace animals in some experiments.

【4】Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

A.Father of Robotic Fly B.Inspiration from Engineering Science

C.Robotic Fly Imitates Real Life Insect D.Harvard Breaks Through in Insect Study

28、Working on a team is a good thing for you. But it can b【1】 you some trouble. If people on your team are not good at communicating, you may often feel terrible. To c【2】 a successful team, good communication is the most necessary for both team members and the leader(领导者). The following is some helpful a【3】.

Don’t criticize(批评) other people. When someone on your team do something wrong, don’t criticize him. You can help him to find out the r【4】 and then help him to solve the problem. Criticizing your team members too often may make them keep away from you. As a r【5】, you may feel lonely.

Think about other people’s ideas carefully. When someone tells you about his ideas, you should take his ideas s【6】 and think about them carefully, no matter how silly they may seem. This s【7】 you are interested in his ideas and makes him feel good.

Listen to other people actively. When someone is speaking to you, you need to listen to him actively. If you don’t u【8】 him about something, you should ask him about it. By doing this, you can clear up any confusion(困惑) before moving on.

S【9】 your ideas with other people. When you have a new idea, talk about it with your team members. This h【10】 to improve the idea. Besides(除...之外) this, it also helps to improve your relationships with your team members.

29、On the top of a tree, an old eagle raised her young. It was a remarkable ___________ to choose. She got her food from the ocean, but this tree stood full ten miles from the beach. It had long been known as the “Old Eagle Tree”.

On a warm, sunny day, the workmen were working in the fields. At a certain hour of the day, the old eagle was known to leave for the seaside to ___________ food for her young. As she returned with a large fish in her claws, the workmen stood around the tree, shouting and throwing stones. They scared the poor bird. So she dropped her fish, and they carried it off.

The bird soon returned to her home ___________ food. The babies at once started to cry for food. The parent bird seemed to try to comfort them, ___________ the babies were so hungry that she couldn’t calm them down. She then stood near the babies, and looked down into the home in a manner that seemed to say, “I don’t know what to do next.” A minute later, she spread her wings and was ___________ again for the sea.

She was away for nearly two hours, about double her usual time for a trip. When she again ___________ on slow, weak wings, she flew uncommonly low in order to have more air to ___________ her with another fish in her claws.

On nearing the field, she made a circuit round it to see if her ___________ were again there. Finding the field clear, she once again reached the tree. Again the baby eagles began to cry. But soon they became ___________, busy having their big meal.

What a great bird! We can learn a lesson from her. Others might ____________, but this bird, at once recovering from the loss, has tried her best to succeed in her task.
