24、   Wherever travellers go, cameras are sure to follow. It's great fun to take photos, and even more fun to show slides of the trip to friends and relatives when they come back home.

There's Aunt Sarah, smiling in front of Buckingham Palace, Aunt Sarah, smiling under the Eiffel Tower, and Aunt Sarah, smiling in a Venetian Canal. Everyone knows what Aunt Sarah looks like；they also know what Europe's great landmarks(地标)look like.

But a young man named David, just back from a trip to Greece, asked a few friends over to see his slides. The young man had an artist's eye. His pictures were not of familiar Greek architectures. Instead, he took pictures of farmers at work in the field, fishermen repairing their nets, and bearded priests(牧师)bending over their Bibles. He captured(抓住)the colour and character of the country. His friends were so interested that they asked for more.

Any amateur(外行)can do the same. All he needs is a simple camera and a little sensitivity(灵敏度). When he learns that a nation lives in its people as well as in its landmarks, he moves from an amateur to an artist.

【1】People who watch Aunt Sarah's slides would be ________.

A.frightened B.excited

C.bored D.sad

A.takes a camera with him

B.knows the history of a place

C.is interested in not only the landmarks but also the people of a place

D.learns how to draw and paint pictures of a place

25、The biggest secret about inventing is that anybody can do it! Perhaps this sounds crazy, but it’s true. Maybe you have the wrong idea about inventing, so read on to discover the truth.

Wrong idea No.1： An invention has to be something completely new.

Well, inventing means creating something “new”, but the idea could come from something that already exists*. The Wright Brothers, for example, got the idea for building a “flying machine” from watching birds.

Wrong idea No.2： Inventors are born, not made.

There are a lot of factors* that make invention possible. Take Mozart, for example. He was born with an endowment for musical composition. But other factors were also important for his creativity. His father was a music teacher, and Mozart practiced for hours every day, from the time he was four years old. Thomas Edison said that being an inventor was “99% hard work and 1% inspiration”!

Very successful creators don’t give up when they get something wrong. As one inventor said, “A failure is the right answer to the wrong question.”

Wrong idea No.3： Inventors are always old people.

Don’t believe that you can’t invent something when you are young. Here are two examples of young inventors： Louis Braille went blind when he was a child. When he was fifteen, he invented a system of reading and writing for blind people that is still used in most countries today.

As a young man, George Nissen was watching some artists performing in a show. He watched how they fell into the safety net and then jumped back up again. This gave him an idea, and he invented the trampoline*.

【1】   got the idea for building a “flying machine” from watching birds.

A. Mozart       B. George Nissen

C. Louis Braille D. The Wright Brothers

【2】The underlined word “endowment” probably means “   ”.

A. 态度 B. 品质 C. 天赋 D. 能量

【3】According to the passage, which of the following is right?

A. Anybody can do inventing.

B. Inventors are born, not made.

B. Inventors are always old people.

D. An invention has to be something completely new.

【4】The best title for the passage would be _______.

27、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.

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.

This is a lesson in which I know I have to put my feet on the ground. I regretted[doing such a silly thing. After that, I told my teacher the truth and I promised to be honest. From then on, I worked harder than ever before.
