24、It was a week before I saw Captain Nemo again. Every morning, I noticed fresh air coining into the rooms, and I knew that the Nautilus had surfaced (浮出水面). I would go out and see the sunrise. Then, I received a note from Captain Nemo. He invited me and my friends to go hunting with him in the forests of Crespo Island. Ned was excited. He thought there might be a chance to run away. I was not so sure. When I saw Captain Nemo the next day, I asked him why he was so interested in Crespo Island. “I thought you preferred the sea to being on land. ”

“I do, ” replied the captain. “ But these forests are under the sea.” During breakfast, he explained that he had made diving suits that used special air tanks. These tanks would allow us to stay under the water for ten hours. He had also made lights that worked on electric batteries and an air gun with electric bullets. When Ned realized that we were not going onto land for our hunting trip, he decided not to come at last.

Conseil and I put on our diving suits, and so did Captain Nemo and one of his men. We stepped into a room and closed the door. The room filled with water, and another door opened. We went through it, and we were on the sea floor. It was an amazing experience.

25、

Green is more than just a color. It also means taking special steps to protect the environment. Buying a green product is a small step everyone can take. Deciding whether a product is green, however, isn’t always easy. We need to consider the whole life cycle of the product even after it’s of no use. Here is what we may keep in mind.

The materials of a product are usually our first focus. What is it made of? Are there any harmful chemicals in it? Green products are made of more natural materials which are free from harmful chemicals, so they can be good for our physical health.

Packaging is important. How is a product packaged? Is it over packaged? We’d better choose glass, metal and paper packaging, as these can be reused or more easily recycled. We can also look for less packaging or even choose unbagged products whenever possible.

Location matters. Where was a product produced? Where are we buying it? Think about how much energy was used to get it. To us, try to choose local products. When it comes to food, it is a good idea to order directly from local farmer, shop at markets and buy fruits in season. Buying from stores near our houses is also a good choice, because we can go there without driving a car.

Look into what the company tells us about their product. It’s easy to say that a product is “green” or “all natural” but the words may be too good to be true. So, much of the information about a product should be taken with a grain of salt. After all, companies try to make us believe that their products are environmentally responsible.

The greenest thing is certainly the one we don’t buy. Things like food and clothing are necessary for life. But many others are not. Better than buying is choosing to leave an unnecessary product in the store and doing without. It sends a message to the producer, keeps money in our pockets, reduces waste and keeps the planet healthy.

【1】The writer would suggest choosing a product that is ________.

A．beautifully packaged

B．locally produced

C．delivered from abroad

D．made of unnatural materials

【2】The words “be taken with a grain of salt” in Paragraph 5 probably mean ________.

A．be widely spread

B．not be totally believed

C．be easily understood

D．not be quickly forgotten

【3】Which is the structure of the passage? (P-paragraph)

A．

B．

C．

D．

26、   What will you do if you come across an English word or phrase you don't know? You'd probably look it up in the dictionary, wouldn't you? This, however, was not the case. Although English has a history of over 2,500 years, the first English dictionary didn't appear until the 17th century.

During the 16th century, Europe saw rich developments in science, medicine and arts. People had to "invent" words to express new ideas. Many new English words were borrowed from foreign language. There was also a renewed interest in ancient languages. Some new English words had roots（根）in languages like Latin and Hebrew.

The general public, however, had difficulty understanding these new words. At that time few girls would go to school. Only rich parents were able to afford professional teachers. Robert Cawdrey, an English schoolteacher, wanted to help. In 1604, he published A Table Alphabetical in London. Cawdrey hoped his dictionary would be able to help more people learn to read and write properly.

But Cawdrey's dictionary was not very dependable. The fist edition had only 120 pages. There were only 2,543 words in it. As Cawdrey's focus was on words "hard for the general public," many common words were not included. And for many words, the explanations（解释）were unclear. Take "loaf" as an example. It explained, "A piece of bread." While in today's dictionary, it reads, "A shaped mass of baked bread that is usually sliced before eating." For some words, Cawdrey used only one word to explain each of them. This made A Table Alphabetical more like a book of synonyms（同义词）than a real dictionary. While readers could check the spelling of some words using the book, they had no way of finding out what these words actually meant.

Although Cawdrey's dictionary had many problems, it was quite popular. As the saying goes, ________." In the year of 1604, people finally had something to help them read more easily!

【1】According to the article, the first English dictionary came out in ________.

A.the early 16th century B.the late 16th century

C.the early 17th century D.the late 17th century

【2】Robert Cawdrey published A Table Alphabetical in order to ________.

A.help more girls to be able to go to school

B.help people to understand the new English words

C.help his own students to read and write words properly

D.help people to become interested in learning new things

【3】Paragraph 4 is mainly about the ________ of Cawdrey's dictionary.

A.look B.history C.popularity D.disadvantage

【4】Which of the following is the most suitable（适合的）in the blank in the last paragraph?

A.Practice makes perfect. B.Where there's life, there's hope.

C.It's better to give than to receive. D.Half a loaf is better than no bread.

28、   Brazil is the world’s fifth 【1】 (large) country. It lies in the 【2】 (east) part of South America and covers an area of 8.51 million square kilometers. The capital city of Brazil used to be Rio de Janeiro, 【3】 now it is Brasilia.

Brazil is a beautiful country and is worth 【4】 (visit). Every year a lot of people from all over the world pay a visit to it. Would you also like to travel there? If so, you should learn as many Brazilian 【5】 (custom) as you can.

In a work-relared （与工作相关的）environment, 【10】 is not acceptable to wear jeans.

29、完形填空

先通读短文，掌握其大意，然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个可以填入相应空白处的最佳答案。

Sometimes, I doubt(怀疑) whether there is any love between my parents. Every day they are busy trying to   money. They don’t act in the romantic(浪漫的) ways that I read in books or I see on TV. They never say, “I love you”. My father has a bad temper(性情, 脾气), and it is for him to be angry in his daily life.

One day, my mother was sewing a quilt (缝被子). I sat down beside her.

“Mom, I have a question to ask you.” I said after a while.

“What?” she asked, still working.

“Is there between you and Dad?” I asked her a very low voice.

My mother stopped her work and   her head with surprise in her eyes. She didn’t answer immediately. Then she bowed(低下) her head and went on sewing(缝).

I thought I had hurt her. At last my mother said: “Susan, look at this thread(线). Sometimes it appears, but most of the time, it disappears in the quilt. It makes the quilt ___ . If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be seen anywhere,   it’s really there.”

I listened carefully but I didn’t understand her   the next spring. My father suddenly got sick. My mother had to stay with him in the   for a month.

After they got back, she helped my father walk slowly down the road every day. My father had never been so weak. “Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.

“Susan, don’t worry about me.” he said gently. “I just like   with your mom.”

Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. Now, I know that love is the thread that holds a family together.
