25、 Recently,my students couldn't get on well with each other,so I decided to have them play a game. I told each student to bring a plastic bag with a few tomatoes in it to school. Each student would "name" their tomatoes after the people they did not like. Therefore,the number of tomatoes would be different depending on how many people each student disliked.
The next day,all of the students brought their tomatoes to school. Some of them had just one or two tomatoes,while others had as many as five or six. I then told the students that they would have to carry their tomatoes with them wherever they went for one week.
Several days went by. Some of the students started to complain,as their tomatoes started to rot (腐烂) and smell bad. The students who carried more tomatoes also complained about how heavy their bags were.
One week later,the game was over. I asked,"How did you feel about carrying your tomatoes for a week?"
The students complained once again. I simply smiled and said,"This is what it's like to carry hate in your heart. You have to carry "it" with you wherever you go. If you can't stand carrying rotten tomatoes for one week,can you imagine having hate in your heart for a whole lifetime?"
It can be exhausting to carry hate in your heart for a whole lifetime. Forgive others and move on with your life.
【1】The number of tomatoes the students were asked to carry depended on __________.
A.the size of the tomatoes B.the name of the tomatoes
C.the weight of the tomatoes D.the number of the people they hated
【2】What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A.The student. B.Hate. C.Heart. D.The tomato.
【3】Why did the students start to complain after several days?
A.Because the game was over.
B.Because they hated the tomatoes.
C.Because the tomatoes started to rot and smell bad.

C.Think more about the people you like. D.Forgive others and make your heart light.
26、The Art of Singing
When Alana first saw the musical Annie, she knew she wanted to try out for the lead role at sometime in her life. She went home and sang the show tune (曲目) of Annie. She recorded her singing and listened back to it, but it didn’t sound as good as she thought.
“Your voice is like an instrument. You need to learn how to use it,” her mother suggested.
So Alana joined a band and a singing club. She also learned how to read sheet music and other singing skills.
Days later, Alana went to the library and took out some CDs of female artists to listen to. She ran through the female artists and tried very hard to emulate (模仿) their singing. First, Alana put on Aretha Franklin, who is know as the Queen of Soul. Then, she put on Billie Holiday. She learned to relax her neck and shoulders and breathed in from above her belly. Alana found that each singer had their own way of forming the notes. She was amazed to see that the human voice could stretch (伸展) in so many different ways. As Alana experimented with various ways of singing, she got more comfortable with what her own voice naturally sounded like.
Around this time, it was announced that her school would produce their own performance of Annie. Alana wanted the lead!
When she tried out for Annie, she sang very powerfully. “The sun’ll come out.. tomorrow!” she belted out. “You’re only... a dayyy....a... wayyyyy!”
Her music teacher applauded. “Alana, you’ve been working hard to become a better singer. Congratulations! You’ve got the lead role! You’re our new Annie!”
Alana’s dream came true. But she knew her dream didn’t just happen because she wished and hoped it would. She’d been taking lessons and working hard. She walked home whistling (用口哨吹奏) a happy little song.
【1】Why did Alana practice singing the show tune of Annie?
A.Because her mother encouraged her to join a band.
B.Because she wanted to try out for the role of Annie.
C.Because Alana would teach her classmates to sing it.
D.Because it was a song from her favorite musical Annie.
【2】After listening and emulating some artists’ singing, Alana ________.
A.helped her class win a prize
B.learned to use her voice better
C.was able to write her own songs
D.mastered different ways of singing
【3】What can we learn from the story?
A.All roads lead to Rome.
B.Love me, love my dog.
C.Hard work does pay off.
D.Two heads are better than one.
27、A recent study shows that a third of UK students aged between 16 and 30 are interested in overseas study. Among them, half wish to study at the undergraduate level.
UK students have increasing interest in studying or working in a European country through the EU’s Erasmus Program, an EU student exchange program started in 1987. Recent Erasmus statistics(数据) show that nearly 15,600 UK students spent up to a year in another European country through the program during 2013-2014 school year, up 115 percent since 2007.
The figures reflect that more young people in the UK are realizing the value of receiving international experience. “The UK needs graduates who have the skills and confidence to compete worldwide, and can compete against foreign talent that may speak more languages and have wider international experience,” said Rebecca Hughes, director of education at the British Council.
Most UK students would like to go to the United States, followed by Australia, France, Canada and Germany, the findings show, but 42 percent of those who took the questionnaire were interested in traveling outside of the English-speaking world.
Why do UK students want to go abroad? Among those who are interested in overseas study, nearly 50 percent want to have fun traveling and exploring different cultures, while 30 percent want to work for an international company and live overseas. About 15 percent said they wanted to go to the best university and get the best education offered worldwide. What’s more, the high cost of UK university studies plays a role in over half of students’ interest in overseas study.
Also, the study found the biggest schooling check to studying abroad was a lack of foreign language skills—chosen by over half of those who were not interested or had not made a decision about studying overseas. But the top non-schooling check for students was the great cost.
【1】The writer presents UK students’ increasing interests in overseas study by ______.
A. giving examples B. making surveys
C. having interviews D. listing statistics
【2】It can be learned that ______ is probably the last choice for UK students to study abroad.
A. Australia B. America C. Germany D. France
【3】Which is the greatest reason why UK students are interested in overseas study?
A. Working for an international company.
B. The high cost of UK university studies.
C. Receiving the best education worldwide.
D. Travelling in non-English-speaking countries.
【4】Which of the following statements is true?
A. UK students are expected to compete with students around the world.
B. Half UK students are unable to afford the university education in the UK.
C. More UK students choose to study abroad through the EU’s exchange program.
D. Overseas UK students all hope to travel around and experience different cultures
