24、   On Feb 12, 2020, Dalian (not his real name) was taking a train to Changsha, Hunan, for a business trip. While on the train, he went into a carriage (车厢) to have lunch and chose to remain in the carriage. He did not realize that the carriage was only for people heading to Wuhan. Several hours later, when the train arrived in Wuhan, Dalian was asked to get off, as he was in the special carriage. Although he was surprised, he didn’t want to cause trouble and got off the carriage with just a single bag. As Wuhan had been locked down because of the epidemic, Dalian couldn’t find a hotel to stay in. Feeling at a loss, he saw a notice online looking for volunteers to work in hospitals. The payment was 500 yuan a day. Dalian decided to give it a try. He soon became a volunteer at Wuhan No. 1 Hospital. He was responsible for taking out trash, mopping (拖) the floor, disinfecting (消毒) the hospital, dealing with used protective suits and bringing meals to patients. The young man, reportedly from northeast China, had to work 12 hours every day, changing his protective suit three times a day. While working, he couldn’t drink anything or go to the bathroom. He also had to have close contact with infected patients, which is risky. Dalian was afraid of getting infected at first. “When I entered the wards (病房), I was kind of frozen (僵硬的) and felt like I couldn’t move,” he said. But after seeing more patients get better, his fear gradually went away.

Dalian’s story has since gone viral (走红的) online. People were surprised by his experience, but also described him as having “a heart of gold”.

【1】Why did Dalian have to get off in Wuhan?

C.Everyone can fight the virus in their own way.

25、Let's suppose it is a common day of 2060. Of course, things have changed and life is very different.

Trips to the moon are being made every day. Taking a holiday on the moon today is as easy as taking a holiday in Europe in the 2010's. At a number of scenic spots(风景胜地) on the moon, many hotels have been built. In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon, every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment of the young and old.

What are people eating now? People are still eating food. But many foods now come in pill(药片) form, and the food that goes into the pill comes mainly from green plants.

Because people in the world today are many more than those about fifty years ago, most of the earth's surface has to be filled. The deserts are irrigated with water and crops are no longer eaten by pests(害虫). The harvest is always good.

Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just using a few computers.

People are now largely vegetarians, and they eat only bread, vegetables, fruit and so on and they don't eat meat or fish. You see, as the number of people increases, the number of animals decreases. So people have to be vegetarians. We are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds, and we know how to deal with all kinds of illnesses. No one has to be ill any more. Such would be our life in 2060.

【1】What will be on the moon in 2060 according to the passage?

【4】Why do people have to be vegetarians in 2060?

A．Because they want to be healthier.

B．Because vegetables can make the patients well.

C．Because there will be more people and fewer animals.

A．He feels pretty hopeful about the future.

B．He is not very satisfied with some things of the future.

C．He seems really sad about what is happening in the future.

26、If you’ve been joining in chat room conversations, or trading e-mail with net pals (网友), you have become one of the millions who write in a special, short form of English.

Throughout the world, every night children and their elders are “talking” online—many of them are talking at the same time.

It’s fast: trying talking to six people once. It’s convenient: three or four words per exchange. It takes cleverness, concentration and quick fingers.

And it requires very simple language. There’s neither time nor space for explanations. Why waste valuable time telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB (=be right back) will do?

Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI (=pardon me for jumping in).

Interested in whom you’re talking to? Type A/S/L, the common request to know your pal’s age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a reply from your pal.

If something makes you laugh, say you’re OTF (=on the floor), or LOL (=laughing out loud), or join the two into ROTFL (=rolling on the floor laughing).

And when it’s time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG (=got to go) or TTYL (=talk to you later).

People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing feeling, as it takes more time to hold down the “shift” key and use capitals. Punctuation is going too.

【1】When people are online, they talk by ______.

A．using body language

B．drawing some strange pictures

C．making phone calls

D．making use of a special short form of English

A．people should use words properly

B．people should know what time it is when they are talking
