24、   When the musical sound rings you, you immediately reach for your pocket ready to have a chat.But although you probably use it all the time, have you ever stopped to think about the manners related to talking on the phone? If you haven’t, here are some tips to guide you．

●Always give the person you are calling plenty of time to get to the phone before you hang up. If the person who answers is not the one you want,give your name and ask if you may speak to the person you want．

●Think about the time you call people.Try not to call too early in the morning（before about 9:00）or too late at night（after about 9:30）. Also try not to call at mealtimes．

●If you go by plane to visit your relatives at Christmas, remember to follow airline instructions.Cell phones must be turned off as soon as the plane doors are closed and remain so until the doors open again on arrival．

●When face to face with someone, do not talk on the phone. It is rude to be on the phone when a waiter is trying to take your order in a restaurant, or when you are returning the shoes you have just been trying on in a shop. Finish any face-to-face business before taking a call. Continuing to use the phone while nodding to the person in front of you is quite impolite．

●When in a restaurant with your friends,keep phone conversations short. Make a call only if it is important. Practice speaking in a low voice.If no one looks your way, you’ve got it．

●If you go to a theatre, a concert or a cinema, consider the other people around you.Check that your phone is “off” before you enter. If you are expecting a very important call, put your phone on “vibrate”（振动）and run for the exit as soon as you feel it. If you forget both “off” and “vibrate” and your phone rings, don’t answer it, turn it off straight away.

25、Many years ago, I learned a lesson in the back seat of a New York City taxi. Here’s what happened. I got on a taxi and set out for Grand Central Station. We were driving on the right side of the road, all of a sudden, a black car cut in right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on the brakes. The taxi slid（滑行）and missed that black car’s back end!

The driver of the black car, who almost caused a big accident, started shouting bad words at us. My taxi driver just smiled, said nothing and wave at the guy. He was so friendly! I was surprised and asked. “Why did you just do that? This guy almost broke your car and sent us to the hospital!” Then my taxi driver taught me something, which I now call “The Law of the Garbage Truck”.

Many people are like “garbage trucks”. They are full of “garbage”—full of anger, full of sadness, and full of disappointment. As their “garbage” is full, they need to put them out. When they do so, do not take it personally. You just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. You will be happy with what you have done.

Successful people do not let “garbage trucks” influence their lives. What about us? If we let more “garbage trucks” pass us by, we will be happier. Life is too short to wake up with regrets in the morning. So, love those people who treat you right. Forget about the ones who do not.

【1】In Paragraph 1, “slammed on the brakes” means “______”.

A．passed by the front car carefully

B．drove the car slowly

【3】Which of the following is true about the taxi driver? ______

A．He acted friendly to the other driver.

B．He caused a big accident.

C．He was sent to the hospital.

D．He shouted at the other drivers.

【4】What does “garbage trucks” in this passage refer to ______?

26、Imagine a classroom missing the one thing that has long been considered a necessary part to reading and writing? No paper，no books，no test paper．Nor are there any pencils or pens which always seem to run out of ink at the important moment．

A "paperless classroom" is what more and more schools are trying to achieve．Students don't do any handwriting in this class． Instead，they use hand-sized or specially-designed computers．The teacher downloads information from Internet libraries and sends them to every student's personal computer．

Having computers also means that students can use the Web．They can look up information on any subject they're studying from math to social science．High school teacher Judy Herrell in Florida，US，described how her class used the Web to learn about what's going on in the world．

"We could touch every side of the country through different sites from the forest to refugee（难民） camps，" she said．"Using a book that's three or four years old is impossible " And exams can go online too．At a high school in Tennessee，US，students take tests on their own computers．The teacher records the grades on the network for everyone to see and then copies them to his own grade book on the Internet．

A paperless classroom is a big step towards reducing the waste of paper．High school teacher Stephanie Sorrell in Kentucky，US，said she used to give about900 pieces of paper each week to each student．

"Think about the money and trees we could save with the computers，" she said．But，with all this technology，there's always the risk that the machines will break down．So，paper books are still widely available for these hi-tech students．

【1】In a paperless classroom，what is a must?

A．Pens． B．Computers．

C．Information．   D．Books．

【2】The high school teacher，Judy Herrell，used the example of her class to show that ____．

A．the Web could take them everywhere

B．the Web taught them a lot

C．the Web can help students have online exams

【3】Which of the following is NOT the writer's opinion?

A．The paperless classroom will be good for trees．

B．There are some differences between the paperless studies and those in the usually way．

C．Paper books are no longer useful．

D．Paper-free studies are popular with more and more schools．
