26、 Next month, I'm traveling to a remote area of Central Africa and my aim is to know enough Lingala—one of the local languages—to have a conversation. I wasn't sure how I was going to manage this until I discovered a way to learn all the vocabulary I'm going to need. Thanks to Memrise, the app I'm using. It feels just like a game.
"People often stop learning things because they feel they're not making progress or because it all feels like too much hard work," says Ed Cooke one of the people who created Memrise. "Were trying to create a form of learning experience that is fun and is something you'd want to do instead of watching TV."
Memrise gives you a few new words to learn and these are "seeds" which you plant in your "greenhouse". When you practice the words, you "water your plants". When the app believes that you have really remembered a word, it moves the word to your "garden". And if you forget to log on, the app sends you emails that remind you to "water your plants".
The app uses two principles about learning. The first is that people remember things better when they link them to a picture in their mind. Memrise translates words into your own language, but it also encourages you to use "mems". For example, I memorized motele, the Lingala word for "engine", using a mem I created﹣I imagined an old engine in a motel room.
The second principle is that we need to stop after studying words and then repeat them again later, leaving time between study periods. Memrise helps you with this, because it's the kind of app you only use for five or ten minutes a day.
I've learnt hundreds of Lingala words with Memrise. I know this won't make me a fluent speaker, but I hope I'll be able to do more than just smile when I meet people in Congo. Now, I need to go and water my Vocabulary!
【1】What does Ed Cooke make an effort to do with Memrise?
A.Create memorable experiences. B.Make progress with hard work.
C.Master languages through games. D.Combine study with entertainment.
【2】What do the underlined words "water your plants" in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Learning new words. B.Being a Memrise user.
C.Logging on to the app. D.Taking care of your garden.
【3】How does Memrise work?
A.By providing learners with interesting pictures.
B.By helping learners lean from mistakes.
C.By offering learners human translation services.
D.By encouraging learners to link words to pictures in their mind.
【4】What is the author's attitude towards Memrise？
A.Positive. B.Doubtful. C.Uncaring. D.Disapproving.
27、France is getting tough with food waste with great determination.A new law has been passed in the country that will ban grocery stores over 4, 305 square feet from throwing away unsold food.If it's still safe to eat, the food must be donated to charity; if not, it goes to farmers for use as animal feed or compost(肥料).
Supermarkets will no longer be allowed to destroy unsold food intentionally in order to prevent people from eating it.There are many people who search for food in the garbage cans behind stores, wanting to take advantage of the perfectly edible(可食用)food that gets thrown away on a daily basis; and yet some stores try to stop this, either by locking the garbage cans or pouring bleach(漂白剂)into them, a practice that Guillaume Garot, the former French food minister who proposed the new bill, describes as“scandalous.”
Food waste is a global problem, with an estimated 24 percent of calories produced for human consumption never getting eaten.Most of this waste happens at the final consumption stage.It is reported that“the average French person throws out 20 to 30 kilograms of food a year—7kg of which is still in its wrapping.”American shoppers throw away about one-fifth of everything they buy at the grocery store, according to a fascinating new documentary called“Just Eat It”.
The supermarkets aren’t happy about the new law because their food waste represents only 5 to 11 percent of the 7.1 million tons of food wasted annually in France.By contrast, restaurants waste 15 percent and consumers 67 percent.“The law is wrong in both target and intention, ”argues Jacques Creyssel, head of the distribution organization for big supermarkets.“Big stores are already important food donors.”
Despite this, France’s new law is a move in the right direction.Wasting food absolutely needs to become a socially immoral thing to do—much like throwing garbage on the ground.If law is what’s needed to get people thinking about conservation and edibility, then it's not a bad thing.
【1】How should supermarkets handle unsold food by the new law?
A．They should leave it alone.
B．They should give it away.
C．They should sell it at lower prices.
D．They should drop it into garbage cans.
【2】What does the underlined word“scandalous”in Paragraph 2 mean?
A．Inconvenient.
B．Challenging.
C．Impractical.
D．Unacceptable.
【3】What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A．The seriousness of food waste.
B．The reasons for food waste.
C．The consequences of food waste.
D．The solution to food waste.
【4】What do the supermarkets think of the new law?
A．It is strict.
B．It is ineffective.
C．It is unfair.
D．It is well-intentioned.
28、Five steps to better handwriting
Some kids love handwriting, but others hate when it’s time to put their pen to paper. Maybe they are worried about their handwriting. Are you one of them? 【1】 Here are five steps that really work!
Get a great grasp
Try this — hold your pencil at the top and try to write your name. Pretty hard? But when you hold your pencil the correct way, writing is much easier. 【2】 Hold it in place with your thumb, and your index (食指) and middle fingers.
Let the lines be your guide
Lined paper is your friend! Those lines can help you create letters that are the right size and proportion (均衡). 【3】 Also be sure to fill up the lined space completely. Those capital letters should be from the bottom line to the top one.
Slow down
If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. If you rush, it’s hard to control where you stop and start your letters.
Lower the pressure
【4】 That makes it harder to make the smooth lines. Try easing up and don’t hold the pencil too tightly.
【5】
Lots of games require you to write or draw pictures. So even though it’s not schoolwork, you’re still using the skills you need to control your pen better.
A．Play games
B．Ask for more advice
C．So “a” should be half the height of a capital “A”.
D．You’ve been writing since you were a little kid.
E．Some kids press down really hard when they write.
F．The good news is that just about everyone can improve their handwriting.
G．The best way to hold a pen or pencil is to let it rest next to the base of your thumb.
29、All her life,my mother wanted busy children.It was very important that her house should remain at all times clean and tidy.
You could turn your back for a moment in my mother’s house,leave a half-written letter on the dining room table,a magazine open on the chair,and turn around to find that my mother had “put it back where it belonged,”as she explained.

These disappearances had a confusing effect on our family.We were all inclined to(有……的倾向) forgetfulness,and it was common for one of us,upon returning from the bathroom,to find that every sign of his work in progress had disappeared suddenly.“Do you remember what I was doing?”was a question frequently asked,but rarely answered.
Now my sister has developed a second-hand love of clean windows ,and my brother does the cleaning in his house,perhaps to avoid having to be the one to lift his feet.I try not to think about it too much,but I have at this later time started to dust the furniture once a week.

31、Directions: Complete the following passages by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
The elementary means of communicating with other people is conveying messages by voice. This fact is widely acknowledged and we recognize the voice as a(n) 【1】 characterizing the identity of a person. The array of voices is immeasurable as no two are exactly similar. They can be nasal, resonant or shrill produced in accordance with the individual physical【2】 of the throat.
One possible implementation of the 【3】 of voice recognition is voice profiling used by police analysts as a method of substantiating court evidence in trials. Every year, thousands of audiotapes with recorded interviews or 【4】 utterances are put to the purpose to help identify the probable 【5】. Specialists dealing with the voice investigation claim that people can give themselves away by their 【6】, inflections or other voice attributes like pitch, intensity and loudness. A recorded sample is usually 【7】 into electric impulses and later transformed into a pictorial recoding which is processed by a computer program. Very frequently voice analyst have a stake at deciphering the relevant information which may be 【8】 with background noise or other interfering sounds until they attain the 【9】 results.
Thankfully, these efforts help the police detect individuals who threaten their victims by phone or inform about bomb 【10】 or those who make offensive calls disturbing the peach of decent citizens.
