24、The Tianchi Meteorological Station is one of China’s best weather stations. It was really difficult to set up and develop this station.
The Tianchi station is at an altitude (海拔) of about 2,620 meters and is about 150 meters away from Tianchi Lake on the top of Changbai Mountain. Weather workers there not only enjoy wonderful sights, but also work under terrible weather conditions.
The average temperature there is -7.3℃ with the lowest of -44.0℃. Every year, there are strong winds in about 269 days with some up to 74 kilometers per hour. Snow can be seen in about 250 days. And there are 56 days of thunderstorms.
The station was set up in 1958 to improve weather information collection. These days, workers also need to pay attention to the effects of climate change and protect the wildlife in Changbai Mountain. Workers stay at the station from June to September. In other months, they check the equipment to keep everything in working order.
Since the station was set up, many workers have done their part in collecting weather information from Changbai Mountain. Jiao Xiangzhao, 53, is one of them. He has worked there for 24 years. He still remembers his first day of work.“Because of the heavy snow, the car we took had to stop when we were one-third of the way to the station. We took four hours to get to the mountain top with heavy bags,” he said.
Over the past years, conditions have improved a lot. Since 2010, new equipment has been used at the station. In 2016, a new building of 1,000 m² was built. Workers could work more safely there.
Working at the station may be hard but important. Jiao feels happy that he can help change the world for the better through his job.

25、There you are in your favorite clothing store. You don’t really need to buy anything, but everything is so cheap and fashion! Before you know it, you leave the store with bags and bags of new clothes. On the surface, this doesn’t seem so bad. However, there are a lot of hidden costs behind the cheap price tags.
To be honest, the fashion industry is terrible for the planet. Not only does it use up a lot of resources, but it also heavily pollutes the environment with chemicals and unwanted waste.
Fashion is one of the least sustainable (可持续发展的) industries on the planet, commented Michael Stanley-Jones, a program management officer with the United Nations Environment Program. “We’ve all become our own waste managers, storing fashion waste in our closets, “ he noted.
It doesn’t just take up space in our closets, though. It also ends up in landfills (垃圾场) , too. In fact, three out of every five clothes end up either being fired or sent to landfills.
But, thankfully, the fashion trends are changing.
People are thinking about what changes they can make to become sustainable, therefore, shopping secondhand has become an increasingly popular and eco-friendly choice.
According to a survey, the secondhand market is predicted to reach $80 billion (about 518 billion yuan) by 2029. And, although fast fashion will continue to grow 20 percent over the next 10 years, secondhand fashion is expected to grow an unbelievable 185 percent in that same amount of time.
Secondhand has become more socially acceptable and, for some, cool. Thrifting is now popular on TikTok. “The only true sustainable way to shop is to not shop at all. ” Michael said, “Unless you’re buying clothes that exist.”
【1】What is the main idea of paragraphs 2-4?
A.People’s love for fast fashion.

A.Storing
B.Avoiding
C.Sorting
D.Saving
【4】What is the author’s main purpose in writing the article?
A.To introduce young consumers’ habits.
B.To inform readers of what is sustainable.
C.To predict the new fashion trend in 2021.
D.To show changes in clothing shopping.
26、When I was young,I liked to play jokes on people I knew, especially on my parents and friends. One day my mother was cooking and I was playing with my younger brother Tony.

Another day I went swimming with my friends in the sea. I wanted to play a joke on them. In the beginning I swam fast and I called out “Help!”. All my friends came to help me.
