24、   The relationship between students and teachers is very important.Why is getting along with teachers important? Every day, we spend more hours with our teachers at school than with our parents at home.We learn many things from them and they teach us to be good people.

In China, many students think that teachers care mainly about our studies and school lives.We believe that they know everything, especially about the subjects they teach.They also have the right to decide who should be the new class leaders, give a speech or take part in some important activities.

Many students want to be the teacher's “pet”.Just like a pet to its owner, we show great respect to our teachers, For example, in class we follow the rules and keep quiet unless the teacher asks us to speak.We seldom argue with our teachers and believe everything teachers say.When they make a mistake, we seldom point it out.Some of us even wouldn't like to contact(接触)teachers after class, because we don't want to bother them.

However at American schools.teachers and students are more like friends.In class, students express their opinions freely and challenge teachers when they don't agree.If a teacher makes a mistake, the teacher will say sorry in front of the whole class.They talk about studies and life experiences.

In my opinion, it's good to show respect for our dear teachers in China, but we'd better think more about how to build a better relationship with teachers.

26、Imagine one day, the water taps in your house stop running. You have to buy water from shops. And still there isn’t enough for everyone. Your mother has to save the family’s shower water to do other things. Would you be able to stand that kind of life?

Probably not. But that’s what kids in Yemen are experiencing. Experts said Yemen is going to be the first country in the world to run out of water. According to a report, the capital, Sana, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025.

Because of the shortage, the government often cuts the water supply(供应). Hannan, an 18-year-old from Lahej, told Times: “In a good week we’ll have a water supply all week. But then the following week there will be water only for a day or two.”

Hannan said only rich people have enough water to use. They can buy water from the shops or from the water trucks. Private companies own the trucks. They travel around the city every day to sell water—at very high prices. “A lot of people can’t afford it,” she said.

The average (平均) person in Yemen uses 100 to 200 cubic(立方) meters of water per year. That is far below the international water poverty(贫困) line of 1,000 cubic meters.

The government is thinking of making use of seawater. But it will cost a lot and it may not happen soon enough to help the people of Yemen.

【1】_____________ is the name of the capital city of Yemen.

A. Sana B. Lahej C. Hannan   D. Times

【2】A report shows that Sana will have ____________ as early as 2025.

A. enough drinking water to use

B. no drinking water to use

C. no private companies

D. more water pollution

【3】What does the word “shortage” in the third paragraph mean in Chinese?

A. 充足   B. 短缺 C. 干旱   D. 需求

【4】We can infer(推断) from the passage that _____________.

A. the poor don’t have to worry about the water supply

B. the 18-year-old boy is from a poor family

C. private companies make a lot of money

D. Lahej is a beautiful place

【5】 Which of the following do you think is the best title for this passage?

A. How to Save Water

B. How to Make Use of Seawater

C. How People Use Water Fully

D. Yemen is Facing Serious Water Shortage

27、判断下列句子是否符合短文内容，符合的用“A”表示，不符合的用“B”表示。

This famous poem, with four couplets（对句）, was written by Du Fu（712—770, Tang Dynasty）when he was living and farming in Chengdu. His farming experience taught him to be thankful for nature.

The very first word, “Good”, shows the poet’s joy and love for the spring rain. The rain is good because it “knows” the proper time to come. Here the poet uses personification（拟人化）, as if the rain were smart enough to come in time for the farmer’s busy season.

When the rain comes, it appears during the night without making any noise. Unlike the summer storms, the spring rain finishes its task without being known.

In the third couplet, the poet describes a peaceful scene to us. In the night sky, the clouds look dark and heavy. It’s a sign that there will be enough rain during the night. The light from the riverboat makes the dark scene a bit livelier.

Lastly, the poet starts to imagine. Tomorrow morning, he thinks, the city of Chengdu will become beautiful when all of the flowers bloom（盛开）after the rain.

【1】The Chinese title of the poem is “Ye Yu Ji Be”.

【2】The rhyme（韵律）for this poem is ab—ab—cd—cd.

【3】The word “quiet” can be used to describe the rain in this poem.

【4】The sentence “With wind it steals in night” uses personification.

【5】Xu Yuanchong wanted to show that he’s thankful for nature in this poem.

28、阅读短文，根据语篇要求填空，使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词。

Once there was a young camel who asked his mother many questions, as all children naturally do.

“Mother, why 【1】 we have a hump (驼峰) on our backs?” he asked.

His mother replied, “My child, these humps prevent hunger and thirst as we go on long journeys through the dry desert.”

“But mother, could you please tell me 【2】 we have long eyelashes (睫毛)?” he continued.

“Oh, son, those are to keep the sand in the desert from hurting our eyes during sandstorms. This protection allows us 【3】 continue traveling.” his mother answered patiently.

“And what about our strange feet?” he asked.

“They prevent our legs 【4】 sinking (下沉) into the soft sand. This lets us walk more easily and quickly,” his mother replied.

The child thought for 【5】 while. Then he said, “I see. The hump is to prevent hunger and thirst when we are in the desert, the legs are for walking through the desert and these eyelashes protect our eyes from the desert. So why are we in this zoo?”
