24、

There you are, looking through your Qzone or Weibo, and you come across sayings like “nbcs”,“zqsg” or “paw”. But what do they mean?

These are examples of internet slang(俚语) terms that have become popular among China’s post-00 generation(时代). According to People’s Daily, these internet slang terms mainly come from two ways: the acronyms(首字母缩写) of pinyin or English and a set of emojis(表情).

For example, “nsdd” is made up of the first letters from pinyin “Ni shi dui de” which means “you are right” and “brb” means “Be right back”. A group or emojis of “sun”, “soccer” and “tea” may tell people that a person played soccer and drank tea in the daytime.

Li Junzhang, a 16-year-old student, loves using internet slang terms. She chooses to express herself using these symbols rather than words when communicating online. She believes, “We like to talk in a convenient way. And parents have no idea what we are talking about. Using the new terms creates a feeling of being ourselves and gives us a sense of belonging to a certain generation.”

“Of course, we encourage people to express themselves in different ways,” a language expert said. “but we also fear that the use of internet slang terms will lead to more mistakes in using Chinese characters.”

【1】According to the passage, we can usually see slang terms like “nsdd” or “brb” from ________.

A．magazines

B．novels

C．online language

D．newspaper

A．

B．

C．

D．

【4】In the expert’s opinion, using internet slang terms can ________.

A．bring convenience in communication

B．help to hide secrets from parents

C．encourage using Chinese characters

D．cause problems in language using

【5】It can be inferred from the passage ________.

A．young people like using slang terms when talking face to face

B．slang terms will take the place of traditional Chinese language

C．Li Junzhang prefers communicating with words to symbols online

D．using slang terms creates a sense of belonging to a certain generation

25、One day after school, I went to the teacher's office to see my teacher, but nobody was there. As I was about to leave, I noticed a piece of paper on the floor. I picked it up and saw the words "FINAL-TERM EXAMINATION" at the top. I put the paper into my school bag secretly and ran out of the room.

After I came back home, I took out the paper quickly. It was the exam paper of my worst subject, History. I felt excited. My heart beat fast. I took out my History book and started working on the answer. I had never answered any questions so seriously.

On the day of the History exam, I went into the exam hall confidently. When the paper was sent to me, I dreamt of getting the highest mark in the whole grade and could not help smiling. "My History teacher always encouraged me to work hard and get better grades, but I let him down time and time again. This time I will give him a big surprise," I thought.

When the teacher said we could start, I turned the paper over. To my surprise, all the questions were different. Later I felt nervous. In the end, I almost left the paper undone. After the exam, I ran to the toilet, took out the paper and carefully read it from the top. Oh! It was last year's exam paper. I read all the questions but I hadn't read the date.

26、I learned about life from an ant farm. When I was seven years old, my family created one. First, we put

clean sand in a thin glass box, and then we waited for the live ants to arrive. Shortly after the chilly ants were dropped into the glass structure, they got to work making tunnels. I was amazed that each one knew exactly what to

do. After hours of staring, I realized that the ants had assigned jobs.

With my mom ' s help, I kept a diary of what happened each day and named the ants. One day an incident struck

the ant farm. The pages of the diary, still wrinkled(皱巴巴) where tear drops fell, indicate the great loss.

'I had put my face so close to the structure that I accidentally knocked it over and all the tunnels caved in.

Although the ants survived(幸存) their earthquake, one by one they began to die.

I was terrified as I watched them give up their tunnel-building to carry the bodies to a comer of the farm.

My mother reported that the ants were dying of "frustration." They simply could not stand the reality that their

tunnels had been destroyed.

Although much time has passed, I still think of that ant farm. Mom had hoped it would teach me about the

natural world, but it taught me much more. Over the years, I came to realize the ants were a study in the benefits

of teamwork. Working together, they were able to create an amazing world for themselves. I also learned that

they should be admired for their hard work. Day in and day out, each labored at their task.

The ant farm showed that teamwork and perseverance are indeed two key ingredients to success. But there

was an even larger lesson that I did not realize until recently: Adversity is a natural part of life, and must be accepted. Unlike the ants, humans cannot give up when they face disappointment. Unlike the ants, we have to

realize that if a tunnel caves in, we just have to build another. Giving up, I say, is not a choice.

【1】The family created an ant farm in a glass box because it was easy _____.

A. for the ants to live in   B. to get sun light in

C. to keep the sand clean   D. for the boy to observe

【2】The word assigned in the first paragraph is close to _______

A. quit   B. completed   C. shared   D. organized

【3】What made the pages of the diary wrinkled?

A. The tears.   B. The earthquake   C. The ants.   D. The incident.

【4】What did the writer finally realize?

A. His mother taught him much more.

B. People should admire anyone for their hard work.

C. Humans cannot give up when facing adversity.

D. Perseverance is the only way to success.

【5】Which statement is true according to the passage?

A. The writer broke the glass box because to the passage?

B. The arts died one by one because the tunnels were destroyed.

C. Unlike people, teamwork is not so important for the ants.

D. Giving up is a good way when we meet trouble

27、Have you ever heard of e-waste (electric waste), which can be produced every day? How do you deal with your computers, MP4 players and mobile phones when they’re broken or you want a new one?

Most people just throw them away. With the development of electric industry, e-waste pollution has become a serious problem. According to the United Nations, in 2014, people around the world produced 41.8 million tons of e-waste and only recycled 6.5 million tons. The US was the biggest waster, producing 7.1 million tons. China came second, with 6 million tons.

It’s important to pay attention to e-waste. It can either be valuable or harmful, depending on how we deal with it. E-waste is a valuable urban mine（城市矿藏）. The value of the metals, like gold and silver in the waste around the world, is amazing. And the metals can be reused. But if people throw them away, the harmful chemicals can get into the earth or air, polluting the environment around us and affecting people’s health.

Apple, for example, now recycle people’s used products in China when they are buying new ones. The company will test and repair the used ones and sell them at lower prices. To help reduce e-waste, we can also take computers and phones to see if companies offer recycling programs.

【1】Which of the following can become e-waste?

A. Computers. B. Vegetables.

C. Clothes.     D. Plastic bags.

【2】According to the passage, how much e-waste did China produce in 2014?

A. 41.8 million tons.   B. 6.5 million tons.

C. 7.1 million tons. D. 6 million tons.

【3】If you buy a new mobile phone, what shouldn’t you do with the old one?

A. Throw it away immediately.

B. Repair the old one.

C. Sell it at a lower price.

D. Take it to a recycling company.

28、根据下列短文内容，在短文后的空格处填上一个恰当的词，使短文完整、通顺。

“I’m just a kid! I shouldn’t have to work!” That’s right. You probably don’t have to work, 【1】here are some reasons why you may want to.

Earning(挣钱) is learning.

By working to earn your own money, you’ll learn the skills you’ll need to succeed in the world, such as dealing with money or 【2】along with people.

【3】 gives you more choices.

If you want to see a movie, get that great video game, or go out for hamburgers with your friends, you’ll need money to do it. When your pocket money runs out, does it mean cancelling all your plans? 【4】 your own extra(额外的) money, you don’t have to.

Being independent(自食其力的) feels great.

When you make your own money, you needn’t wait for someone 【5】 to give you some. Five dollars that you’ve earned will probably seem a lot better to you than twenty you have asked for, and there is nothing better than the proud 【6】 of taking your own money to the bank or store.

It beats being bored.

How many times have you ever been bored because you can find 【7】 much to do? Well, how about coming up with a plan to earn some money? By working and earning money, you’ll be able to 【8】 the hours fly by.

Okay, so now we know why we should make money, but what’s the best place to do it? Start at home!

Indeed, Robert played it. After a few minutes, his mother said, “Robert, Whenever you make a mess like this, you have to clean it up. So we would use a sponge (海绵), a towel or a mop. Which do you prefer?” He _________ the sponge and together they cleaned up the spilled milk. His mother then said, “You know, what we have here is a difficult experiment in how effectively to carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands. Now, let’s _________ a way to carry it without dropping it.” The little boy learned that if he grasped the bottle at the top neat the lip with both hands, he could carry it _________.
