24、
Kimberly, 15, Diocesan Girls' School Many students now work part-time during the summer and winter holidays. Some people think students should not work part-time. However, I support the idea. Firstly, working part-time can raise students' self-esteem. Through earning money, students will gain a sense of achievement. Secondly, part-time jobs can provide both training and experience. They will prepare students for their future careers. Part-time work can also teach students about responsibility (责任感). What's more, it allows them to put into practice the skills they have learned in school. However, students must make sure their part-time work does not affect their studies. | Laurence, 15, Tsung Tsin Middle School In my opinion, working part-time is not a good idea. Here is why. During the summer and winter holidays, students should go over what they have learned in school. Working part-time will make them very tired. Students will not be able to focus on their studies. It is very hard to balance studying and working. Compared with students in many other cities, those in Hong Kong have a heavy workload. They should use the little free time they have for relaxation, not work. Some may argue that part-time work helps students learn skills that are not taught in class. Therefore, students should work part-time. I disagree. We study full-time from primary school to university, for only about 15 years. This period of time is very precious. After leaving university, few people go back to school to study full-time. We have so many years ahead of us to learn skills we cannot learn at school. As students, we should just focus on our studies. |
【1】How many advantages of working part-time did Kimberly mention?
A.Two.
B.Three.
C.Four.
D.Five.
【2】Laurence thinks students should________.
A.work full-time
B.work part-time
C.balance studying and working
D.just pay attention to studies first
【3】In Laurence's opinion, what should students do during the summer and winter holidays?
①Relax②Go over what they have learned in school.
③Take extra classes.④Put what they’ve learned in school into practice
A.①②
B.①③
C.③④
D.②④
【4】Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.Both Kimberly and Laurence are working part-time.
B.Kimberly thinks it is difficult to balance working and studying.
C.According to Laurence, students in Hong Kong have little free time.
D.Many people today go back to school to study full-time after leaving university.
25、阅读理解
Hello Sandy,
We have just returned from our holiday. We went with our friends Edward Smith and his wife Tina to the Yorkshire Moors. This is a beautiful place. It is a natural park. There are lots of places to walk on the tops of the hills, miles of grassland with no people, just sheep and birds.
Edward, who had just come out of hospital, could not walk as far as be used to. However this meant that we walked in the mornings, and then stopped at a cafe for lunch each day, before returning to the place we live. Edward and I slept in front of the fire all afternoon, while the ladies went for another walk. Very pleasant!
I have taken lots of photos from the place we live, across the valley(峡谷)below us, of the morning sunrise, and the mist in the valley. Also, in England, the old steam powered trains(蒸汽火车)are very popular. I have taken many photos of the train and from it.
Yesterday we had the first snow of this winter. It is very early (we usually expect snow in January). It rained all day, then snowed in the evening. Today we have bright sunshine!
Both Jenny and I are well I don’t know if I told you, in the last e-mail, that Jenny is now working in a hotel. Although she has to work hard, people there are nice and she is enjoying the work.
Please write to us to tell us your news.
Yours,
Victor

26、The Amazing Brain
Sleep. It’s something we spend about a third of our lives doing, but do any of us really understand what it’s all about?
We all know based on our own experience that when we sleep, it clears our minds, and when we don’t sleep, it leaves our minds murky (昏沉沉的). But when we still haven’t understood why sleep has this amazing function for the mind.
Recently biologists have found that sleep may actually be a kind of design solution to some of the brain’s most basic needs, the way that brain meets the high demands and the narrow margins (范围) that set it apart from all the other organs (器官) of the body. The brain has a large pool of clean, clear fluid (流体) called cerebrospinal fluid. Biologists call it the CSF. The CSF fills the space that surrounds the brain, and wastes from inside the brain make their way out to the CSF, which gets the waste into the blood. What was surprising to them was that the fluid on the outside of the brain didn’t stay on the outside. Instead, the CSF goes into and through the brain along the outsides of the blood vessels (血管), it was actually helping to clear away and clean the waste from the spaces between the brain’s cells (细胞). This only happens in the sleeping brain.
Recent research suggests that what’s happening is that when the brain is awake and is at its most busy, it puts off clearing away the waste from the spaces between its cells until later. When we go to sleep, it gets into a kind of cleaning mode to clear away the waste from the spaces between its cells.
We go to sleep every single night, but our brains never rest. While our body is still and our mind is off walking in dreams somewhere. Like our housework, it’s dirty and a thankless job, but it’s also important. In your house, if you stop cleaning your kitchen for a month, your home will become completely unlivable very quickly. But in he brain, the situation is much more serious because when it comes to cleaning the brain, it is the very health and function of the mind and the body that’s at stake. That is why understanding these very basic housekeeping functions of the brain today may prevent and treat diseases of the mind tomorrow.
【1】What does the underlined phrase “at stake” in the last paragraph mean?
A. in a healthy situation
B. in a dangerous situation
C. in an amazing situation
D. in an unlivable situation
【2】What can we learn from the passage?
A. Sleeping makes our brain feel murky.
B. The CSF can clean the waste in our brain.
C. Our brain can clean the waste at any time.
D. Sleeping makes our brain have a good rest.
【3】What is the main purpose of writing this passage?
A. To teach us how to have a good sleep.
B. To show the new research of our brain.
C. To introduce how CSF works in our brain.
D. To tell us the importance of sleeping.
27、 What is the difference between a fear and a phobia? You might have a fear of dogs if you have ever been bitten by one. However, if you avoid walking down streets where you think there might be a dog, you may have a phobia, which is a strong unnatural fear. If the fear has started to change a person’s life, he or she probably has a phobia. Different surveys say that between 10 and 80 percent of us have at least one phobia.
You can probably guess what some of the most “popular” phobias are. Flying may be the safest way to travel, but many people are scared of doing it. Fear of heights is also very common. For example, Spider-Man actor Tobey Maquire can’t stand high places. However, Tobey is not afraid of spiders that most people are afraid of. Rupert Grint, who plays in the Harry Potter movies, is in fear of spiders. “In one scene of the movie, we come into the large spider’s hole, and there we meet a spider that is the size of an elephant and really scary because he has these hairs. I’m really scared of spiders,” he said.
Some people have phobias that are more unusual. For example, cats are very cute for most of us, but not for such powerful people in history as Alexander the Great and Napolean Bonaparte. Actor Nicole Kidman says, “I’m not scared of snakes or spiders, but I’m scared of butterflies. Sometimes when I came home from school, the biggest butterfly you had ever seen would be just sitting on our front gate. I would climb over the fence, move slowly to the side of the house, or do anything to avoid having to go through the front gate.” Clowns (小丑) are not so funny for actor Johnny Depp, whose childhood memory of the “painted faces and fake smiles” still makes him scared. Some other weird (怪诞的) phobias, including chewing gum, old doors or windows and footsteps, also fear some famous persons, such as Orah Winfred, Billy Bob and Sigmund Fred.
【1】Rupert Grint who acted in Harry Potter is scared of________ .
A.dogs B.snakes C.spiders D.butterflies
【2】Which of the following behaviors can be a phobia for these persons?
A.Cathy dislikes keeping a pet cat at home.
B.Victor cannot sleep well before the exams.
C.Linda feels very tired climbing the mountains.
D.Doris shouts crazily whenever hearing footsteps at night.
【3】We can infer (推断) from the passage that________ .
A.people are born with phobias B.phobias are common in our daily life
C.famous people are easier to get phobias D.phobias do not influence people’s life at all
