24、The yearly Academy Awards ceremony was once a private affair. Now, because of television, it is very much a public affair. Hundreds of people gather in Hollywood to see the Oscars presented to outstanding actors, and others involved in the motion picture industry. Millions more watch on television.

It all began on May 16, 1929, when 270 men and women sat down to dinner at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. There was no secret about the winners. The names of the winners had been known for months．Janet Gaynor, for example, had won as Best Actress．Douglas Fairbanks presented her with the famous gold statue. The little statue was not then called Oscar. Like a new actor, Oscar was unknown. About six years later, it somehow got that renowned name. A number of explanations have been offered for its origin, but nobody knows the true story for certain.

Nowadays the results of the Oscar voting are kept secret. Only two people know the winners before the names are announced at the ceremony. The counting of votes is not done by one group of people but by different groups. Nobody except two members of an accounting company sees the final results.

The information is not kept in open files. Winners' names are placed in closed envelopes．The accountants each carry a complete set of envelopes to the ceremony．One set is simply a spare to be used in case something happens to the other one．

26、In the 1920s and 30s the airlines were just beginning. It was unusual for people to travel by air because it was expensive and dangerous. In those days, there were no flight attendants to look after the passengers. Young men ,or “stewards” helped the passengers onto the airplane and carried the passengers’ luggage(行李)but they did not provide food and drinks. But then in 1930,a woman called Ellen Church invented the “stewardess”.

Ellen Church was born in 1904 on a farm in Iowa. She was a different child. She didn’t want to work on a farm or marry a farmer —she wanted a more adventurous(冒险的)life. Ellen studied to be a nurse at the University of Minnesota and then got a job in a hospital. For the next few years she stayed at the hospital but also took flying lessons and got her pilot’s license.

Ellen was twenty-five years old when she first got in touch with Boeing Air Transport. She loved flying but she understood that airlines were a man’s world. Although women like Emelia Earheart were becoming famous, she realized it was impossible for a woman to have a career as a pilot .But she had another idea. Most people were frightened of flying because. flying was still an unreliable(不可靠的) way to travel. There were often delays(延误),many crashes and the bad weathers made many passengers sick. Ellen thought nurses could take care of passengers during flights and B.A.T. agreed.

The young woman from Iowa and seven other nurses became the first air stewardesses.

At first pilots were unhappy because they did not want stewardesses on airplanes, but passengers loved the stewardesses. In 1940 there were around 1000 of them working for different airlines. The early “stewardesses” had to be under twenty-five-year-old, single and slim. When a woman joined an airline, she had to promise not to get married or have children. It was hard job and not well paid. They worked long hours and earned ＄1 an hour.

In the 1970s, stewardesses were unhappy in their job and airlines had to make some changes. Since the 1970s, “stewardesses” have been called flight attendants. They are well paid and work fewer hours than in the past.

【1】The last sentence of the first paragraph suggests that _________.

A. the word “stewardess” was made up by Ellen Church

B. Ellen Church was the first woman who flew a plane

C. Ellen Church was the first woman who worked on a plane

D. Ellen Church was the first woman passenger on a plane

【2】From the second paragraph, we learn that ________.

A. Ellen did not behave in the same way as most other girls

B. Ellen’s family was not rich enough to support her education

C. Ellen was fond of working as a nurse in the hospital

D. Ellen has an unhappy childhood that changed her completely

【3】The main reason for Boeing Air Transport offering Ellen the job was ________.

A. her flying experience

B. her university education

D. her life attitudes

【4】The passage mainly talks about _______.

A. the background of early flying pilots

B. the experience of flying passengers

C. the history of early flight attendants

28、语法填空：用所给单词的适当形式填空，未提供单词的限填一词。

One day, a teacher entered the classroom and gave the students an exam. To 【1】(everyone)surprise, there were no questions on the papers, just a black dot in the center of the paper.

The teacher saw the 【2】(express) on their faces and said, “I want you to write down 【3】 you see.” At the end of the class, the teacher took all the answer papers and started reading. All of them described the black dot and tried to give 【4】 explanation where it was and what it was like on the paper. At the end of the lesson, the classroom was 【5】 (complete) quiet.

The teacher began to explain, “I 【6】(read) all your answer papers, but I am not going to grade you according to this. I just want you【7】(think) about something. No one wrote about the white part of the paper. Everyone focused on the black dot. Our life is a gift filled【8】love and care. We always have reasons to celebrate --- friends【9】help us or jobs that support our lives. We fix too much on the dark spots --- the health problems, the lack of money or the bad relationship with a family member, etc. The dark dots are really【10】(annoy), but they are small. Take your eyes away from them in your life.”

29、   I have five children, so our house is always noisy. Luckily, I love gardening and my garden helps me _______. For a long time, I _________ the garden of peace and quiet. When the children followed me into the garden, I would _________ them to be out of sight. And I would hand out tasks.

“Mama, I want the others to try them too.”

Suddenly, I realized I had been wrong for long. I tried to keep the ________ of gardening to myself, and here was a child who couldn’t wait to share with others. “Sure, honey, let’s pick some.”

Now I enjoy all of the garden’s beauty with the children. We bring the fruits back home, preparing and cooking the produce(农产品) together, because we know that everything is better when shared.
