24、Like many people, I have no clear idea about heroes. At some point, we all wonder if we need a hero and what a hero really is.
Although there are a lot of differences in cultures, heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics(特点) which give us courage and make us want to learn from them.
A hero does something worth talking about. A hero has a special story to tell and people think highly of it. But a hero is not just the person with great fame(声誉).
A hero has powers(力量) larger than himself. Some people want to live like a hero, and they have to experience life with new and further meaning. A sure test for would-be heroes is what or whom they serve. What do they want to live and die for? If the answer suggests they serve only their own fame, they may be famous persons but not heroes.
A hero has a vision from the mountaintop. He has the power to move people. He creates new possibilities. Without Gandhi, India might still be part of Britain. Without Martin Luther King, Jr., Americans might take different buses, eat in different restaurants, go for walks in different parks, and shop in different stores because of the different colours of their skin.
There might be changes in society without a hero, but the speed of change would be rather slow. Thanks to heroes in history, they make the society develop so rapidly.
【1】According to this passage, a hero is a person who always ________.
A.gives us courage
B.thinks highly of others

A.风景
B.想象
C.远见
D.形象
【4】Black people in America used to ________ before Martin Luther King, Jr.
A.shop at the white’s stores
B.drive buses with the white
C.take walks in the white’s parks
D.eat in restaurants without the white
【5】What can we learn from the passage?
A.We don’t need heroes anymore at some point now.
B.Heroes are all the same though different in cultures.
C.People get power from heroes to move to a new place.
D.Our society has developed faster because of heroes in history.
25、 What can we do whenever Earth faces a disaster? Is the only solution running away from the planet in spaceships? The latest Chinese sci-fi (科幻) movie, The Wandering Earth, offers a different and more ambitious (有雄心的) idea.
The film is based on a short story by Chinese sci-fi writer Liu Cixin. In the film, Earth is in danger of being destroyed by the dying sun. Humans around the world work together to build a giant engine system that will push Earth away from the sun. We're taking the Earth with us to run away.
What makes The Wandering Earth different from Hollywood-style space films? It’s probably the special cultural background (背景). For many years, “homeland” has rooted (生根) in the hearts and minds of Chinese people. One old saying is luoyeguigen. It means returning to one’s homeland in old age, like fallen leaves returning to the roots of their tree. There are also many ancient poems about homeland. “The season called the White Dew begins tonight / Nowhere as in our native place is the moon so bright”. These all show that Chinese people have the tight bond (情感纽带) with their homeland.
What is Chinese sci-fi? Guo Fan, the film’s director said, “Chinese sci-fi is a way to express our cultural and spiritual core (精神内核). Otherwise (否则), we’re just imitating (模仿) others and telling the same American stories.” And the film was released on February 5, 2019, the first day of Chinese New Year. It was a time when many people had just made the hard journey back to their hometowns. It seems the best time to tell this Chinese sci-fi story. Anyway, to us Chinese, Earth goes wherever humans go, because it’s our home.
【1】Why do people consider the film so ambitious?
A.Because humans work together to build a giant engine system.
B.Because humans are trying to take the Earth to run away together.
C.Because the film story is written by the famous writer Liu Cixin.
D.Because people have managed to run away from Earth in spaceships.
【2】Why does the writer use the old saying and ancient poems in this passage?
A.To tell the difference between Chinese and American.
B.To remind us of China’s many years of history.
C.To teach some Chinese traditional cultures and spirits.
D.To express Chinese people’s love of their homeland.
【3】What does the underlined sentences mean? ____________.
A.明月几时有,把酒问青天 B.露从今夜白,月是故乡明
C.举杯邀明月,对影成三人 D.床前明月光,疑是地上霜
【4】What makes The Wandering Earth different from Hollywood-style sci-fi?
A.Its fantastic pictures and settings. B.Imitating foreign sci-fi films.
C.Its Chinese cultures and spirits. D.Its creative and brave idea.
【5】What’s the best title for the passage?
A.The Latest Chinese Sci-fi Film B.What is Chinese Sci-fi?
C.Chinese Sci-fi Sets a New Path D.Chinese Sci-fi VS Hollywood-style

28、根据短文内容和首字母提示,在下文空格处填入适当的词使短文完整。在答题卡标有题号的横线上,完整地写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。(每空一词)
Usually, you don’t find the same words in different languages. But there is an exception for the word “OK”!
The word OK first appeared in the Boston Morning Post on March 23, 1839.
It was an abbreviation of the phrase “oll Korrect”, an incorrect s【1】 of “all correct”. Although it began as a joke, people later u【2】 the phrase on documents(文件) or through telegraphs(电报) to say that all was well.
This year, OK celebrated its 179th b【3】. We use this expression countless times every day. “How about two o’clock? OK?” “OK then.” The word OK is e【4】 to say, write and understand.
Besides, it is more neutral(中立的) than many words. Allen Metcalf, American author of OK : The Improbable story of America’s Greatest Word, told The Times, “What OK provided that other words did not was neutrality, a way to express agreement w【5】 having to offer an opinion.” For example, if someone asks you to go for a walk after lunch, you can s【6】 answer “OK”. There you go — no extra opinions.
OK can be spelled in different ways: okay or O.K. they are all p【7】 the same. But “OK” is the most widely accepted spelling and is often used in writing. Some people, however, like the spelling “okay” b【8】 it looks more like a word.
Sometimes, people also say short forms of OK like “K”. For example, someone might say, “I’m just going to the supermarket, but I’ll be b【9】 in 10 minutes.” You could reply with “K”.
OK is so useful that it’s said worldwide. You may not know the l【10】 of someone you’re talking with, but saying “OK” with gestures(手势) can help you communicate.
