24、

Cultures across the world have different ways for people to greet one another. In Spain, many people kiss both cheeks. In New Zealand, they bump noses! The goal of these actions is to make others feel welcome. However, some people would rather say hello orally. They don’t like being touched. Neither does the sensitive plant.

Some people keep the sensitive plant as a houseplant because of its interesting behavior. When you touch the leaves of the sensitive plant, it releases(释放) water from its leaves and stalks. As water drains(流出) to the plant’s base, the leaves close and the stalks droop. This causes the plant to look wilted!

The sensitive plant draws back from physical contact because it doesn’t want you to touch it, of course! Just like people, this plant sends physical signals that you should leave it alone. This reaction to touch is a defense mechanism. Many animals and insects eat plants, so the sensitive plant learned to move to scare away predators(捕食者). Frightened by the sudden wilting, hungry animals move away to find a different plant to eat. Additionally, wilted plants don’t look mouth-watering. This encourages other nearby predators to look for their dinner elsewhere.

If you touch the sensitive plant and it wilts, have no fear! It’s still a healthy plant. After a few minutes, it will send water back to its leaves and stand straight up again. However, it takes lot of time for the sensitive plant to rejuvenate itself. Don’t touch the plant just to watch it wilt. It may seem like fun, but it’s not fun for rejuvenate.

It’s always important to pay attention to the body language of plants, animals, and other people! We should never want to make other living things uncomfortable, and especially not for our own entertainment.

【1】What’s the main purpose of writing Paragraph 1?

A．To introduce the cultures across the world.

B．To list the actions that can make others feel welcome.

C．To compare different ways for people to greet one another.

D．To lead readers to make a connection between people and the plant.

【2】We can infer that the sensitive plant may be also called _________.

A．forget-me-not

B．touch-me-not

C．rose of sharon

D．daughter of wind

【3】The underlined word “wilted” means “________” in Chinese.

A．艳丽的

B．茂盛的

C．枯萎的

D．有毒的

【4】The sensitive plant’s interesting behavior is actually a way to ________.

A．protect itself

B．entertain itself

C．attract animals

D．kill animals

【5】In the writer’s view, _________.

A．watching the sensitive plant wilt is fun

B．we should treat other living things kindly

C．body language helps us know each other better

D．it’s a good idea to keep the sensitive plant as a houseplant

25、   Once upon a time, there was a family with 18 children living in a village. Two of the children, both boys, loved painting very much, but the family was so poor that it was impossible to send both of them to study at art school at the same time.

After many discussions, the two boys finally worked out a plan. They would toss(抛) a coin. The loser would go down into the mines(煤矿)and,with his money, pay for his brother's college tuition(学费).Then, when the brother who won the toss finished his studies, he would pay Tor the other brother to study at the college.

One of the brothers, Albrecht Durer, won the toss and his brother Jack went down into the mines. Durer worked with all his heart and his paintings were much better than those of most of his teachers. He was beginning to make a lot of money for his paintings.

Durer returned. When he told Jack he could go to art college, Jack said softly: "The fouryears in the mines have done too much to my hands. It is too late. Now I can’t even hold a glass."

To show his great love and respect for his brother, Durer drew his brother's hands with palms(手掌）together and thin fingers towards the sky. He called his drawing The Praying Hands, which became very famous years later.

26、   It’s said that both work and play are important for a developing mind. Though it may be crucial (重要的) for everyone to work hard, it is also important to relax from time to time.

In 2018, the average (平均数) amount of leisure (闲暇) time for Chinese people was 2.84 hours per day, higher than 2017’s average of 2.27 hours, according to the China Media Group (CMG).

CMG’s surveys focus (聚焦) on the happiness of China’s population. The surveys, which began in 2006, cover many areas, including leisure time, vacations and spending habits. Each year, CMG surveys around 10,000 households across the country.

The surveys also showed what people prefer to do during their leisure time. Seven in ten people enjoy surfing the internet, while 55 percent like to watch TV and 46 percent prefer shopping.

What’s more interesting is that people in different provinces like to do different things. For example, people in Guangxi like reading books. Those who live in Tianjin prefer to go to a concert or movie. People in Jilin province prefer to exercise.

In general, people are happier when they have more leisure time, the survey suggests. Having enough leisure time has even become more important than income (收入) for Chinese people.

However, it is still important to work as well. Working hard during part of the day makes leisure time more valuable and enjoyable, CCTV News reported.

CMG has also found that over the last 10 years, Chinese people have generally become happier. In 2018, over half of Chinese people felt satisfied with their lives, the highest rate (比率) seen since 2009.

【1】In 2017, the average amount of leisure for Chinese people was ________ per day.

C．reading books

【4】In 2018, how many Chinese people felt satisfied with their lives?

B．Seventy percent of Chinese people.

C．Forty-six percent of Chinese people.

【5】The writer wants to tell us that ________.

A．both work and play are important

28、   Scoring a goal is always worth celebrating. The Chinese striker (前锋) called Wu Lei scored his first goal in La Liga (西甲) on March 2. He is the first Chinese player 【1】 has scored in the top European league. Few other goals could be compared to it so that lots of Chinese fans celebrated it 【2】 (wide) – some of them even cried with joy.

“I’m so excited! Several 【3】 (month) ago I was scoring in the Chinese Super League, but now I’ve scored in La Liga. It’s 【4】 dream come true for me,” Wu said after scoring.

Wu is now a member of the Spanish club Espanyol. He joined the club 【5】 the end of January. But in just his 【6】 (five) match on the field, he scored his first goal. The coach Rubi said Wu is like “a floating feather (飘着的羽毛) with great speed.”

Wu was quite strict with 【7】 (him) while training. He ever got hurt when he first joined the team, 【8】 he wanted to start training right away. He also told his coach that he didn’t want to be treated any differently simply because he was Chinese.

【9】 (fit) into the team better, Wu is learning Spanish. He practices talking with his teammates every day. He 【10】 (learn) enough so far, so he has no problems with language. His hard work has helped him win the trust of his teammates.

Of course, Wu’s first goal is just the beginning. Chinese fans are looking forward to seeing what he’ll do in the future.

29、I've never thought that a money raiser could have had such a huge influence on my life. Back in 5th grade, our school announced a money raiser and each class would get a box to fill it up with small _______. To make my class to come to the first place in the money raiser, I took two fifty-dollar bills _______ to school and put them into the box.

Two weeks later, my parents asked me about the money. They said they had discovered the truth and weren’t _______, but I must do something to make up for it.

My dad had the perfect idea in mind. The day _______ Christmas, he took me to St. John's Hospice in north Philadelphia, and explained to me that we were going to be working in the kitchen for several hours, making meals with potatoes and chicken for the 300-400 _______ men that came in each day.

As the lunch began. I thought I could wait for this by playing with my new toys. But as the mealtime went on. I found these men were overjoyed at the _______ food they were receiving, which I couldn't believe. I considered it a fairly common winter meal. The men's faces lit up with the food they were given. I realized how poor some people in this world actually are.

I had always heard about giving to the poor; but I never fully _______ it until that day. It was enlightening to see how thankful they were for something I thought was _______. I learned that I didn't really need all the good and expensive things I hoped for. On the drive home, my dad _______ McDonald's for lunch and I answered no at once. I knew that I didn't need it.

That day I came to know how good the feeling is to help people who are really in need. I now return to St John’s Hospice every year, trying to make a ________.
