24、One morning, Wu Liang discovered that her classroom had changed. She found that the desks were no longer in rows, but pushed together to make eight bigger desks. She was so excited about it for the first two days that she couldn’t listen to the teachers carefully. But soon she and her classmates got used to this new classroom arrangement (安排). “Now our class is quieter,” said Wu. “What’s more, we can come up with our own ideas and learn more through discussion. It’s a better way to study.”
Li Yu liked it, too. “Group members first discuss,” he said, “and then present to the whole class. It makes us believe in ourselves.” This was part of a reform (改革) at Li’s school. The school made this reform because they wanted to offer students easier ways to study and more chances to discuss. “Our school hopes to improve students’ abilities to study by themselves and work in groups.” said Zhang Ming, an English teacher.
However, the reform has demanded more from teachers. Now they have only 15 minutes to give a lesson that would have been taught in 45 minutes before. It is difficult to teach in such a short time. The teachers have to find better ways to teach more effectively.
“The reform demands more, but I’m sure it is helpful.” added Zhang Ming.

25、 On a rainy day, the raincoat and the umbrella have been necessary for people to protect themselves from the rain for decades, probably even centuries. However, Chinese designers are trying to challenge a new product called an umbrella raincoat.
As the name suggests, this wonderful invention combines the raincoat and the umbrella. First, it looks kind of strange, which is the only disadvantage listed by sellers on Chinese Websites. They actually describe it a little differently---"You will get a 100% rate of second look"--- you actually know what it means.
Like the umbrella, it only protects your upper(上面的) body from the rain, with the lower part being almost completely exposed(暴露). Besides, it frees up both your hands, which is obviously the main advantage of it. But isn't the classic raincoat just better? I hear you asking. Well, it is not if you want to show off your clothes while still enjoying some protection from the rain. Though those clear raincoats become foggy (模糊的) in the rain, making it hard for passers-by to look at your fancy dresses, the umbrella raincoats still have a clear view. Other advantages include a lightweight, foldable design and two belts that keep it from being blown away by strong winds.
The umbrella raincoat comes in all kinds of sizes and colors, and as the Chinese online stores show, it will soon take the place of the traditional umbrella, and go into the houses of hundreds of millions of people. I think such a kind of raincoat will play a key role in peoples everyday life in the future.
【1】The underlined word decades means________.
A.dozens of years B.ten years C.many centuries
【2】Which of the following best explains the underlined sentence in paragraph 2?
A.It makes you famous to everyone.
B.You may draw tons of attention because of its strange design
C.The umbrella raincoat is a great tool and you will make 100% use of it
【3】The writer thinks the umbrella raincoat is
A.strange but useful B.ugly and useless C.interesting but stupid
【4】From the passage, we can know that________.
A.it is hard for people to look at your fancy dresses by wearing the umbrella raincoat
B.the umbrella raincoat protects not only your upper body but also the lower part
C.in the writer's opinion, the umbrella raincoat has a wonderful design
【5】About the umbrella raincoat, which of the following is NOT true?
A.There are two belts that make it stronger.
B.It can't be seen clearly in the rain
C.It can free up both your hands
26、I had hidden the long black bag in the garage(车库) for the past two days. Tonight, in the dark, I would finally take it away. If everything went OK, it would be done by morning. But I had to be sure no one, not even my wife, saw me.
It was more difficult to get away from the party than I expected. I said that the children were tired and needed to get to bed. It was partly true. But the main reason for leaving was that I wanted to complete my plan.
First I had to get the kids to sleep. That was never easy at any time and tonight it was even more difficult. The eldest one wanted to know why we left the party early. I told him 10:30 pm was not early. As usual, I read them a bed-time story, but I had to stop myself reading too quickly or they would learn my secret.
Silence finally came, and feeling like a thief in the night, I went out of the house and into the garage. Taking one end, I dragged the bag out from its hiding place and took it into the garden. I was worried that my neighbors might hear me and call the police.
It was already eleven o'clock. By the light of the moon I started working, trying to make as little noise as possible. And that was not easy with a saw (锯子) and a hammer(铁锤).
After much effort, my work was finally completed. I looked down at my watch. It was exactly 4:00 am. Then I went inside to have a shower and get a few hours of sleep. It wouldn't be long now before the kids would rush into my room and wake me up to tell me about the new tree-house Father Christmas had brought them this year.

27、As traditional Chinese art, paper cutting has a long history. The first and earliest paper cutting was found in China 1,500 years ago. But this traditional art is at risk of disappearing now. Luckily, Voyo Woo, a Chinese immigrant(移民)in America, is trying to bring this art back to life.
One Saturday in 2014, Ms. Woo held a paper cutting show at a shopping center near Washington. She got much fun and peace doing it. She hoped more people would enjoy it.
Ms. Woo began to study the art of paper cutting as a 14-year-old girl in her hometown in China. She said all the students at school had to learn paper cutting. But she had a deep love for it.

Soon after that, she took part in an activity to promote(宣传)Chinese paper cutting. And then she was invited to show the art in many important activities. “It is important to promote this art to Americans or anyone who is interested in it. Maybe it will make this art more popular. ”Woo said.
From the art of paper cutting, people can know about Chinese cultural values, history and stories of people’s life. Ms. Woo uses the art as a tool to show Chinese culture to people who know little about it. Chinese art is not only for Chinese, but also for people all over the world.
