24、 Joe moved to Canada with his family at the age of 41. There were many stressful days for them in the beginning. Since Joe had no job, the savings(存款) they brought with them were diminishing rapidly.
One day, Joe went out to look for a job. As he walked, he saw many things on the street that people threw away. Joe could not believe his eyes. “Why would people throw away such things?” he asked himself. Joe saw a “new” television and decided to take it home to see what the problem was.
Since he was 12 years old, Joe’s main hobby has been electronics(电子产品). As a teenage boy, he began to repair radios, TVs and so on.
Joe brought the television home and turned it on. There were pictures on the screen, but there was no sound. He opened the back cover. Before long, Joe found the problem. The loudspeaker(扬声器) was broken. He went out again. Among the garbage on the street, he found a toy piano. He carried the piano home. Luckily its loudspeaker worked. Fifteen minutes later, Joe had a TV with both pictures and sound.
Joe began to question people about why they were throwing away electronics. The answer was the same from everyone: getting them repaired was too expensive. People would rather(宁愿) buy new products.

25、 Like all big cities, Paris has a traffic problem: lots of traffic jams and lots of pollution from exhaust fumes. So in 2007, the city began a scheme(计划) to improve the situation.
Under the Velib scheme(bicycle freedom), people can take a bicycle, use it for as long as they want, and then leave it at the same or another bicycle station. The first half-hour on the bike is free, but if you don’t return it after 30 minutes, you have to pay. But it’s only 1 euro a day or 29 euros a year! The bicycles are heavy (25 kilograms). They are all grey and have baskets. There are about 20,000 of them in the city, and around 1,450 bicycle stations. So there are a lot more Velib stations than the 298 metro stations!
Paris is not the first city to have a scheme like this — not even in France. Many years ago, Lyon started a free bicycle scheme. However, not everybody in Paris thinks it’s a great idea. One Parisian said, “These bicycles are only for short journeys. If people want to travel across the city, they won’t use a bicycle; they’ll still use their cars.”
A city spokesman said, “The bicycle scheme won’t solve all of our traffic problems, of course. But it might reduce pollution levels in the atmosphere. Traffic, together with factory fumes, is a big problem. Everyone knows about global warming. We know this is partly because rainforests are disappearing, but it’s also because there’s so much pollution in the world. We can help improve the situation right here. The Velib bikes might help people to lead a healthier life, too.”
“There aren’t any simple answers to traffic problems and pollution in cities,” the spokesman added. “But unless we do something now, there will be more traffic jams and temperatures will continue to rise. The problems in our environment will only get worse.”
【1】How did Paris improve the situation of its traffic problem?
A.It built many bicycle stations. B.It is renting heavy bicycles to visitors.
C.It sold more bicycles to people. D.It is providing shared bikes for people.
【2】How much will you have to pay if you use the bike for 45 minutes?
A.29 euros. B.1.5 euros. C.1 euro. D.Nothing.
【3】According to the city spokesman, which of the following statements is true?
A.Traffic is not the only cause of global warming.
B.There aren’t any solutions to the city’s traffic problems.
C.Riding bikes is a perfect way to solve pollution problems.
D.It’s better to drive a car than to ride a bike to travel across the city.
【4】What of the following is NOT a way to deal with global warming?
A.Using bicycles often. B.Protecting the rainforests.
C.Reducing factory fumes. D.Traveling across a city by car.
【5】Which of the following may be a suitable title for the passage?
A.Traffic Jams in Paris B.Taking Action for the Environment
C.Bicycles and the Future D.The Advantages of the Velib Scheme
26、 After a while, you may have saved some pocket money. You finally have enough money to buy that game or piece of clothing you dreamed of. You take the money, go to the store and find them. But when you go to check out, you see a sign: "Hello! We've gone cashless (无现金)." It is disappointing and then you may have to leave the store.
While this may become common if more stores and restaurants stop accepting cash as payment. Instead, customers (顾客) must pay with their bank card or by Smart phone App. Many business owners say that accepting no cash has helped them simplify the way that their business runs. Cashiers don't have to worry about having enough money to make change or about putting bills and coins to the bank.
But a growing number of people say cashless stores are unfair. Some even say they should be illegal (非法的).
According to the research, many families actually don't have bank savings. Many people including kids, don't have bank cards because they don't meet the conditions for applying for the bankcards. Therefore, cashless stores seem to be unfair. Some people even say cashless stores are " discriminating (歧视) against people." Plus, people who do have bank cards might prefer paying with cash is still very popular with consumers. It's used by almost eight in ten adults in the world every month. That's more than any other payment type.
Lawmakers in several places have taken steps to ban (禁止) cashless stores. Some big cities have already passed laws to address the problem. A lawmaker says: "It's really about equity. It's about understanding that not everyone has fair way of getting things."
【1】Many business owners think that accepting no cash is ________.
A.helpful B.unfair C.disappointing
【2】Why do many people have no bankcards? ________
A.Because they don't know how to use cards.
B.Because they don't have enough money.
C.Because they don't meet the conditions for applying the bankcards.
【3】According to Paragraph 4, what is the most popular payment type?________
A.Paying with Smartphone. B.Paying with cash. C.Paying with cards

27、It feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation, it turns into an argument. We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly, my mother will push the conversation into World War III. She’ll talk about my lack of a bright future because I don’t plan to be a doctor. And much to her disappointment, I don’t want to do any job related to science, either. In fact, when I was pushed to say that I planned to major(主修) in English and communications, she nearly had a heart attack.
“Why can’t you be like my co-worker’s son?” shebemoansall the time. Her co-worker’s son received a four-year scholarship and is now earning 70,000 dollars a year as an engineer. I don’t know what to answer except that I simply can’t be like Mr. Perfect as I’ve called the unnamed co-worker’s son. I can’t be like him. I’m the type of person who loves to help out in the community, write until the sun goes down, and most of all, wants to achieve a career because I love it, not because of fame (名声) or salary(薪水).
I understand why my mother is worried about my future major. I’ve seen my mother struggle to raise me on her small salary and work long hours. She leaves the house around 6:30 a.m. and usually comes home around 5 p.m. or even 6 p.m. However, I want her to know that by becoming a doctor, it doesn’t mean I’ll be successful. I’d rather follow my dreams and create my own future.
