21、 Every woman dreams of receiving a huge, sparkling and priceless diamond. Now scientists have discovered the largest diamond in the universe.
But it’s well beyond the reach of the most lovestruck men — 50 light years to be precise. Space scientists revealed that they had discovered a ten billion trillion trillion carat gem. Measuring 2,500 miles across and weighing five million trillion trillion pounds, the rock was found on Valentine's Day buried in the core of a white dwarf star in the constellation Centaurus.
“It’s the mother of all diamonds,” said Travis Metcalfe, who led the team of researchers at the Harvard-Smithsonian Centre for Astrophysics in America.
“You would need a jeweller’s loupe the size of the Sun to grade this diamond.” Named Lucy, after the Beatles' song Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, the rock has sent a ripple of excitement through the scientific world.
The largest diamond found on earth was the 3,106-carat Cullinan. It was cut into nine major stones, including the 530-carat Star of Africa, now a part of the Crown Jewels. Diamonds were first discovered in India more than 2,800 years ago. The Ancient Romans believed that the stones were splinters of stars that had tumbled to earth.
In Ancient Egypt, diamonds were symbols of eternity and were used in funeral rites. In the Middle Ages, men wore them to symbolize their courage and virility. The tradition of giving them as love tokens dates from 1477, when Archduke Maximilian of Austria gave a diamond ring to Mary of Burgundy.
【1】The largest diamond in the universe________.
A．was found 50 years ago.
B．was in the centre of a white dwarf star.
C．was too large to measure.
D．could be graded by a common jeweller's loupe.

A．Diamonds have symbolized love since 1477.
B．The largest diamond on earth was found 2,800 years ago.
C．The Crown Jewels was totally made of the 530-carat Star of Africa.
D．At present, men wear diamonds to symbolize their courage and virility.
【3】Which of the following best serves as the title?
A．Diamond — a must on important occasions
B．Love — the symbolism of diamonds
C．Discovery — the largest diamond in the world
D．Diamond — the dream of women

22、Cycling is a healthy and fun activity that can be enjoyed by anyone. It is also cheap and very good for the environment. Are you wondering whether you should start cycling?
It will improve your cardiovascular（心血管的）health. 【1】 That's because when you're cycling, your heart will beat much faster than it usually does, which is something that promotes good heart health.
It will strengthen and tone your muscles. Working out regularly will help you to keep a lean body. When you are cycling you are not only exercising the muscles in the front of your legs, but also in your back, arms, and core. 【2】 A number of studies have shown that the more someone cycles, the healthier their muscles are.
【3】 There is a lot of scientific research that supports the idea that exercising helps to decrease stress levels. Therefore, if you find that you are getting stressed too often, then you should consider purchasing a bike and going for a cycle two to three times a week.
It improves your brain power. Cycling is an activity that helps with the formation of brain cells in your hippocampus（海马体）, the area of your brain that is used for memory and starts to decline once you pass thirty. 【4】 Researchers also have found that just a 5％ increase in cardiorespiratory（心肺的）fitness from jumping on a bike can lead to a 15% increase in mental tests.
It will help you lose weight. If you want to burn off those extra calories, then cycling is a great way to do so. A person who cycles at a speed of 10mph for an hour will burn around 260 calories. 【5】
A．It helps to ease your anxiety.
B．It will keep you self-motivated.
C．It really is a total body workout.
D．So, you'll be desperate to go out there and buy yourself a bike.
E．Charles Hillman claimed that cycling helps to decrease the risk of memory loss.
F．Those who cycle a lot are less likely to suffer from heart attacks or have a stroke.
G．However, just because you hope to keep the pounds off via cycling, you aren't allowed to eat whatever you like.
23、Traveling by train can be a romantic way to see the world. Since it was one of the original forms of transportation worldwide, here are some fantastic train trips to add to your travel list.
Qinghai-Tibet Railway
Where it goes: Xining to Lhasa
Why not start with the world's highest train ride? The Qinghai-Tiber Railway climbs to great heights of over 16,0000 feet as it snakes trough the Himalayas. The wonderful 1215-mile journey only makes seven stops.
Eurostar
Where it goes: London to/from Paris
Eurostar is a popular way for folks to get from London to Paris, thanks to its quick travel time, but it has another attraction that makes it a great train trip. For 20 minutes, you will actually be riding 150 feet underwater through the famous English Channel.
Trans-Siberian Railway
Where it goes: Moscow to Vladivostok
The Trans-Siberian Railway is another historically famous railroad that should be on your travel list. It is also the world's longest continuous railway. Along the way, you will pass through eight time zones and have plenty of time to see the beautiful Russian countryside.
Glacier Express
Where it goes: St. Moritz to Zermatt in the Swiss Alps
This train ride is a favorite among many, as it's arguably the best way to experience the Swiss Alps. It's much more about the journey than the destination, and it gives new meaning to the term slow travel, taking over seven hours to pass just 180 miles. But it's one of the most scenic train journeys out there, so the slow pace is welcomed.

24、As a garden designer and consultant, I see the amazing progress that can be made when gardeners get together and get things done. Here are some small stories about how something has been achieved through cooperation.
I was involved with one project earlier driven by two twelve-year-olds living in a small northern England town. To do something good for the environment, the two girls desired to grow their own food in some deserted land. So the pair spoke to their teacher about using a small abandoned space next to their school’s parking lot. The teacher reached out to me for advice and together we determined who owned the space. The owner agreed to rent the space and the kids were able to raise money to pay the rent and start growing food on the site.
Another inspiring story was about one enterprising gardener in Illinois who decided to speak with his neighbors about using their grass-filleld front yards to grow food. This gardener did have his own garden but he wanted to do more. So he offered to tend his neighbors’ front yards in return for the use of these underutilized spaces to grow food everyone would share. To his surprise, all of his neighbors adopted this front-yard farming idea, and even one neighbor joined him and helped grow the food to learn more about the process. Everyone gained a lot at last.
The final story was that of three women in a neighborhood in Vermont. Struggling to find the time to look after their kids and grow their own food, they found a solution. The mothers together raised children and plants, selling produce and young plants to other gardeners in the area to cover basic costs. They took turns on daycare duty for a handful of children and tended the garden around their part-time jobs.
These stories show just what can be achieved when people work together to make their own lives and the lives of those around them just a little bit better.
【1】What are the two 12-year-old girls particularly interested in?
A．A balanced diet.
B．School education.
C．Voluntary work.
D．Eco-friendly living.
【2】What was beyond the expectation of the gardener in Illinois?
A．His success in running a garden of his own.
B．The difficulty of getting land for gardening.
C．His neighbors’ positive response to his idea.
D．The good management of neighboring gardens.
【3】What did the three women do to handle their problem?
A．They sold goods at a local daycare center.
B．They took turns to look after their children.
C．They did full-time jobs to cover basic costs.
D．They collected donations from other gardeners.
【4】What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text?
A．To urge us to protect the current environment.
B．To praise the hard work of ordinary gardeners.
C．To prove the meaning of helping others in need.
D．To show the significance of cooperative work.
