26、If you want your children to become ready, willing, and able gardeners, take steps early. It is not difficult, but you might need to change your thinking about children in the garden. 【1】. He writes about gardening for the Associated Press. Lowenfels says that gardeners are made, not born. He suggests several ways to help turn a child into a gardener.
● Arouse their interest
The first step is to get your child interested in plants. This, he says, is getting more difficult because of competition from electronics. 【2】. There they can smell the flowers and touch other plants. Next, let your child buy a plant. Lowenfels says he still remembers the first plant his father helped him choose when he was six years old. He says that plant, called a lantana (马缨丹), is where his love of plants and gardening began to grow.
● Teach your children well
Children not old enough to care for a plant by themselves, need adults to teach them. This may be the best way to get children interested in gardening. 【3】. So, let them see how much you enjoy working with plants. Another great way to lead young people into gardening is to have them grow plants from seeds. This is very effective when the plants are things they like to eat. Carrots are favorites of many children.
● 【4】
Don’t forget that children like responsibility. Find a gardening task that fits their age and is just for them. They can fill containers with soil. You can show them how to water and how to place labels. 【5】.
Small children can help in other ways. Lowenfels says his first garden job at age 5 was deadheading dandelion flowers into a container. When his own children wanted to be in the garden, he gave them the job of hunting worms. Then they moved on to deadheading dandelions and pulling weeds.
A．Give them a job
B．Children copy adults
C．Teach them responsibility
D．Taking a child to a plant store is a good place to start
E．That is one of the many suggestions made by Jeff Lowenfels
F．You can also show them how to provide the right amount of light
G．Gardening with children is a great way to get children connected with nature
27、The Strangest Jobs in the World
You may be tired of a 9-to-5 job. Or you may be looking for something different to do.
You won’t believe what some of these people do for a living. Check out these strangest jobs and tell us if you could handle doing any of them.
Watching Paint Dry
This may be one of the most boring jobs in the world. The paint company hires people to watch paint dry. They need to take note of the changing colors and have to examine the changes under a microscope(显微镜) as well as on the walls.
Iceberg(冰山) Mover
This job appeared after the Titanic tragedy( 悲 剧) in 1912. Iceberg movers remove icebergs and prevent any further accidents. Using satellites and airplanes, the movers search the seas for icebergs. And if any are found, they pull the iceberg to an area where it won’t be in the way. Pulling an iceberg can take up to 72 hours. This is because the boat needs ten hours to reach a speed of just one mile per hour.
Luggage Organizer
There are many camp activities for children in New York. Mothers are now inviting luggage organizers to pack their kids’ bags. To hire an organizer costs around US $250 an hour. It can take up to four hours to be fully packed and ready. US $1,000 to pay somebody to pack your kids’ bags, is it worth it?

28、 Local officials in Beijing promised to further protect the city’s cultural heritage (遗产), in particular the narrow streets known as hutongs.
Hutongs are commonly found in the cities of North China, but they are at risk. Beijing is currently believed to have fewer than 1,000 hutongs, most of which are near the Imperial Palaces. Only 60 years ago, the number was 3,250. In the old districts of Dongcheng and Xicheng, which cover 62 square kilometers, some people will be asked to move from hutong houses to avoid further damage to the ancient architecture.
“On average more than 100,000 people visit the Imperial Palaces during the National Day holidays. The visitors put pressure on the protection of cultural relics,” said Huang Yan, director of the Beijing Municipal Commission of Urban Planning, adding that hutongs should be protected from human damage.
The government focused on how the protection plans were carried out and how the management of cultural heritages worked. Wang Shaofeng, head of the Xicheng district government, said the area has 182 cultural relics, many of which were built as far back as the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368). The district of Xicheng has 1.28 million residents in its 57 square kilometers of land. “The most efficient way is to decrease the local population to reduce the possibility of causing harm to the heritage,” Wang said
“Each community has been required to report the status of its cultural heritage, especially hutongs, and any actions to damage the heritage will be punished,” Wang said.
No one knows for sure how many hutongs will be left in the coming 100 years.
【1】How many hutongs have disappeared in the past sixty years in Beijing?
A．Less than 1.000.
B．About 2.000.
C．More than 3.000.
D．Over 4.000.
【2】According to Huang Yan, what is the main cause of the damage to cultural relics?
A．Visitors’ activity.
B．Residents’ attitude.
C．Communities’ behaviour.
D．The government’s policy.
【3】Which of the following is a useful way to protect hutongs?
A．To attract more visitors.
B．To punish anyone damaging them.
C．To increase the local population.
D．To forbid everyone getting close to them.
【4】What will happen to hutongs in the near future?
A．Only time will tell.
B．No one will remember them.
C．The number will be growing.
D．Hutongs will disappear completely.
29、Canada is a very large country. It is the second largest country in the world. By contrast it has a very small population. There are only about 29 million people there. Most Canadians are of British or French origin, and French is an official language of Canada as well as English. About 45% of the people are of British origin, that is, they or their parents or grandparents, etc., come from Britain. Nearly 30% are of French origin.

31、Directions：Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
Tributes（致哀）poured in last week to the world-famous British physicist Stephen Hawking, whose insights 【1】 modern cosmology（宇宙学）and inspired global audiences in the millions. He died at the age of 76 on March 14.
Hawking was given only a few years to live after being diagnosed with ALS（肌萎缩性脊髓侧索硬化症）at the age of 21. The illness left him in a wheelchair and largely 【2】 to speak expect through a voice synthesizer（合成器）. Nevertheless, Hawking completed his doctorate（博士学位）on the origins of the universe three years later and became a research fellow at the University of Cambridge’s Caius College.
Hawking’s first major 【3】 came in 1970. With mathematician Roger Penrose, Hawking used Einstein’s theory of relativity（相对论）to 【4】 the origins of time and space to singularity（奇点），a single point of zero size and infinite density（无限大的密度）where all the laws of physics would have broken down. Their work gave mathematical expression to the Big Bang theory（创世大爆炸理论）. Hawking was the first to try to 【5】 relativity with quantum mechanics（量子力学）. In 1974, he put forward that black holes leaked radiation, now known as“Hawking radiation,”and would eventually disappear with a tremendous explosion. The proposal 【6】 to one of the most passionate debates in modern cosmology—before Hawking, it was widely accepted that black holes were completely black and would 【7】 forever.
In 1982, Hawking was among the first to show how tiny changes in the distribution（分布）of matter might give rise to the 【8】 of galaxies（银河系）in the universe and lay the seeds of stars, planets and life as we know it.
For 30 years, Hawking was Cambridge’s Lucasian professor of mathematics（卢卡斯数学教授席位），arguably Britain’s most distinguished chair（席位）and a post once held by Sir Isaac Newton. He received 12 honorary degrees and was awarded a Companion of Honor（英国荣誉勋位）by Queen Elizabeth in 1989. The 1988 publication of A Brief History of Time won Hawking international 【9】. The book, through which the professor brought complex science to a【10】 audience, has sold at least ten million books in 40 languages.
