21、Editor: Today our topic is part-time job. Are they good for school children or not?
Headmaster: Certainly not. Children have got two full-time jobs already: growing up and going to school. Part-time jobs make them so tired that they fall asleep in class.
Mrs. White: I agree. I know school hours are short, but there’s homework as well, and children need a lot of sleep.
Mr. White: Young children, perhaps some boys, stay at school until they’re eighteen or nineteen. A part-time job can’t harm them. In fact, it’s good for them. They earn their pocket money instead of asking their parents for it. And they see something of the world outside school.
Businessman: You’re quite right. Boys learn a lot from a part-time job. And we mustn’t forget that some families need the extra money. If the pupils didn’t take part-time jobs, they couldn’t stay at school.
Editor: Well, we have got two for, and two against. What do our readers think?
【1】Who have the same opinion?
A.Headmaster and Mrs. White.
B.Editor and Mr. White .
C.Mr. and Mrs. White.
D.Businessman and Headmaster.
【2】Mrs. White thinks the young children maybe ________.
A.need to stay at school until they are eighteen or nineteen

23、Hu Li’s heart sank due to the color of the air. Driving 140 kilometers from Tianjin City to Beijing last week, she held her breath as the air became a charcoal grey haze (炭灰色的阴霾) . The 39-year-old businesswoman has lived in Beijing for a decade, and this past month, she said, brought the worst air pollution she has ever seen. It gave her husband a cough and left her seven-year-old daughter housebound (足不出户) . “My husband as well as I is working here, so we have no choice,” she said. “But if we had a choice, we’d like to escape from Beijing.”
The extended heavy pollution over the last month, which caused punishment in return for a day last week-called the “airpocalypse” by Internet users-has largely changed the way that Chinese think about the country’s air. On one day, pollution levels were 30 times higher than levels considered safe by the World Health Organization (WHO). Flights were cancelled. Roads were closed. One hospital in east Beijing reported they had treated more than 900 children for breathing issues. Bloomberg found that for most of January, Beijing’s air was worse than that of an airport smoking area.
The smog’s most threatening aspect is its high concentration (浓度) of PM
2. 5-particulate matter that is small enough to breathe deep into the lungs and enter the bloodstream, causing breathing infections, lung cancer and possibly damaging children’s development. The WHO has estimated that outdoor air pollution accounts for two million deaths per year, 65% of them in Asia.
【1】Which conclusion can we draw from the first paragraph?
A. Hu Li is living in Beijing.
B. Hu Li traveled to Tianjin for business.
C. The haze is harmful to people.
D. The pollution is the worst in Beijing’s history.
【2】The extended heavy pollution has largely changed .
A. the way they traveled
B. the opinion about national air
C. the way they lived their life
D. the lifestyle of Internet users
【3】What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Hu Li’s Attitudes to Beijing’s Haze
B. The Damage of Beijing’s Haze
C. WHO Suggests Improving Beijing’s Air
D. What Caused Air Pollution in Beijing
24、In my first week as a graduate student at Cambridge University in 1964 I met with a fellow student, two years ahead of me in his studies; he was unsteady on his feet and spoke with great difficulty. This was Stephen Hawking. I learned that he had a bad disease and might not live long enough even to finish his PhD degree.
But, amazingly, he has reached the age of 73. Even mere survival would have been a medical miracle, but of course, he didn’t merely survive. He has become arguably the most famous scientist in the world for his brilliant research, for his bestselling books, and, above all, for his astonishing victory over hardship.
Stephen received his “death sentence” in 1964, when I thought it was hard for him to go on with his study. Stephen went from Albans School to Oxford University. He was said to be a “lazy” undergraduate, but his brilliance earned him a first-class degree, an “entry ticket” to a research career in Cambridge and a uniquely inspiring achievement.
Within a few years of the burst of his disease he was wheelchair-bound, and his speech was so unclear that it could only be understood by those who knew him well. But his scientific career went from strength to strength: he quickly came up with a series of insights into the nature of black holes (then a very new idea) and how the universe began. In 1974 he was elected to the Royal Society at the exceptionally early age of 32.
The great advances in science generally involve discovering a link between phenomena that were previously conceptually unconnected — for instance, Isaac Newton realized that the force making an apple fall to earth was the same as the force that holds the moon and planets in their orbits. Stephen’s revolutionary idea about a link between gravity and quantum(量子) theory has still not been tested. However, it has been hugely influential; indeed, one of the main achievements of string theory(弦理论)has been to confirm and build on his idea. He has undoubtedly done more than anyone else since Einstein to improve our knowledge of gravity and he is one of the top-ten living theoretical physicists.
【1】 What impressed the author most about Stephen Hawking?
A. His brilliant research.
B. His defeating hardship.
C. His serious disease.
D. His bestselling books.
【2】What made Stephen Hawking start his research career at Cambridge?
A. His death sentence.
B. His “lazy” attitude.
C. His above-average talent and ability.
D. His rich experience.
【3】It can be inferred that Stephen Hawking was born .
A. in the early 1940s B. in the late 1940s
C. in the early 1930s D. in the late 1930s
【4】 What can we learn from the text?
A. Hawking’s theory was proved years ago.
B. Hawking was not as successful as Newton.
C. Hawking’s theory has had little influence on others.
D. String theory built on Hawking’s idea.
25、 There was once a bridge which crossed a large river. During most of the_______ the bridge sat with its length running up and down the river paralleled with the banks, allowing ships to_______through freely on both sides of the bridge. But at certain times each day, a train would come along and the bridge would be turned sideways across the river, allowing a train to cross it.
A switchman sat in a small house on one side of the river where he_______the controls to turn the bridge and lock it into place as the train crossed. One evening_______the switchman was waiting for the last train of the day to come, he looked off into the distance and_______sight of the trainlights. He stepped to the control and_______until the train was within a prescribed(规定的) distance to turn the bridge into_______,but, to his horror, he found the locking control did not_______. If the bridge was not securely in position it would wobble(摇晃) back and forth at the ends, causing the train to jump the_______and go crashing into the river. This would be a passenger train with many people aboard. He____________across the bridge to the other side of the river where he would have to hold the lever(控制杆) back____________as the train crossed. He could hear the rumble(隆隆声) of the train now, and he took hold of the lever and____________backward to apply his____________to it, locking the bridge. He kept applying the pressure to keep the mechanism locked. Many lives depended on this man's strength.
Then, he heard a sound that made his blood run cold. “Daddy, where are you?” His four-year-old son was crossing the bridge to____________him. The man almost left his lever to run and seize his son and carry him to ____________ But he realized that he could not get back to the lever. Either the people on the train or his little son must die. He took a____________to make his decision.
The train sped safely and swiftly on its way, and no one aboard was even____________of the tiny broken body, thrown mercilessly into the river by the onrushing train. Nor did they notice the____________figure of the sobbing man, still holding tightly the locking lever____________after the train had passed. They did not see him walking home more slowly than he had ever walked: to tell his wife____________their son had brutally died.
