1、 Do you often use a cellphone? Do you take the subway to school every day? These items make our modern life easier. But do you know how we should behave properly while using them? ①以下建议可能是有帮助的。
For cellphone users
♦②Keep your voice down when you make a phone call in public. Shouting on the phone may make others feel uncomfortable. And you'd better not use it during an appointment(约会).
♦ Stop sending messages or playing games with your cellphone at a dinner or a party. ③这是和你家人以及朋友交流的好时候。
♦Don't make or answer a call while driving. It is not only very dangerous for both you and your passengers but also against the law.
For subway passengers
♦You are supposed to wait in line while buying tickets and getting on the subway.
♦④You're not allowed to eat, drink or smoke on the subway train. The smell and noise may trouble others.
It's our duty to keep the train clean and tidy. Besides, smoking is bad for health.
♦You can't take pets on the train. As we all know, animals may spread diseases (传播疾病) and get the train dirty.
♦You'd better not lie across the subway seats even if the train isn't crowded.
⑤Offering your seat to someone who needs it is regarded as good manners.

24、 Ghina Ghaliya of Indonesia says a stranger’s visit to her house led to a project to help students affected (影响) by COVID - 19. Ghaliya remembers when a rubbish collector came to her house in Jakarta. The man asked if she had an old mobile phone his children could use to get on the Internet for learning from home. Ghaliya thought there must be many people who need second-hand mobile phones out there. She and her group decided to provide mobile phones for poor students so that they could do face-to-face learning.
When the project was made public, many people donated (捐赠) second-hand phones, while others donated money. As of November, they had collected more than 200 mobile phones and donations of more than $ 35,000. They used the money to buy more phones. They also paid for Internet use for those needing it. Now nearly 300 phones have been given to students in and around Jakarta as well as to faraway areas.
Maghribi had also been using his father’s phone to attend lessons. But the 11 - year - old boy sometimes sent his homework late because he had to wait for his father to return. For the first time in his life, Maghribi was falling behind in his studies. This was making him feel worried.

26、It was a village in India. The people were poor. However, they were not unhappy. After all, their forefathers (祖先) had lived in the same way for centuries.
Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frogs’ legs. However, they did not have enough frogs of their own, and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.
This seemed like money for nothing. There were millions of frogs in the fields around, and they were no use to the villagers. All they had to do was to catch them. Agreement was reached, and the children were sent to the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. For the first time, the people were able to dream of a better future. But the dream didn’t last long.
The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if (好像) the crops(庄稼) were not doing so well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and there seemed to be more insects around lately.
The villagers decided that they couldn’t just wait to see the crops failing and the children getting weak. They would have to use the money they’d just had to buy pesticides (杀虫剂) and medicine. Soon there was no money left.
Then the people realized that what was happening. It was the frogs. They hadn’t been useless. They had been doing an important job—eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed, soon there were more and more insects. They were doing harm to both crops and people.
Now, the people are still poor. But in the evening they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs. These sounds of night now have a much deeper meaning.

【2】What might be the cause of the children’s sickness?
A. The crops didn’t do well.
B. There were too many insects.
C. The visitors brought in disease.
D. The pesticides were overused.

A. Good old days will never be forgotten.
B. Health is more important than money.
C. The harmony between man and nature is important.
D. Happiness comes from peaceful life in the country.

28、根据语篇要求填空, 使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词。
Three is a powerful number. If you take a close look at your life, you will find that 【1】 is all around us. Everything has a beginning, a middle and an end. We eat three meals a day. Traffic lights all over the world use three colors. Many famous slogans (标语,口号) 【2】 all three words long, such as “Just do it”, “Coke is it”.
But why is this number so powerful? Well, one of the main reasons is that human brain likes thinking in patterns (规律). If there is no patterns, our brains will create them. And three is 【3】 smallest number needed to form a pattern. As a result, “Important things need to be repeated for three times” becomes popular around us. If we make a good use of the rule of three in our daily lives, we can make things easier. For example, many people like to add lots of tasks 【4】 their to-do list. However, experts 【5】 has learned about the patterns, advise just three tasks. So the next time you are making New Years resolutions, why not list only three things?
