26、On October 23, 2018, scientists came across a white octopus (章鱼) with “wings” that looked more like a ghost from outer space than the eight-legged ones we usually see.
The octopus’ scientific name is Grimpoteuthis. However, thanks to the two ear-like fins(鳍)on the sides of its body, it is better known as a dumbo octopus, after Disney’s animated (把……制作成动画片)elephant. The sea creature also has eight legs connected to its body by a web of skin, which are used to increase the pace when it is faced with natural enemies like sharks. Dumbo octopuses can also move across the seafloor using their tentacles (触须).
While the one caught on tape is mostly white, dumbo octopuses, like other octopuses, can change their skin color in different environments. They, however, do not produce ink which is often used as a weapon by other octopuses. Instead, some dumbo octopuses have developed something sharp on their tentacles.
There are more than a dozen known species of dumbo octopuses. While most are small, measuring between 8 and 12 inches long, some can reach over 6 feet in length. Though octopuses have huge eyes, they can hardly see. However, although dumbo octopuses live in the deepest and darkest parts of the ocean, where nothing can be seen, the lack of sight does not affect them. Instead, they have learned to use the suckers(吸盘)on their tentacles to feel their surroundings.
The deep-sea environment makes these octopuses difficult to spot, which is why any sighting of the unusual creatures is met with such joy. The latest one, caught on camera by Hercules, an unmanned robot, was discovered two miles underwater around the Davidson Seamount, a volcano in California.
【1】What can we learn about the white octopus from the passage?
A．It looks strange.
B．It has no legs.
C．It can fly out of water.
D．It is common in the sea.
【2】Which of the following are dumbo octopuses good at?
A．Taking on different colors.
B．Attacking enemies using ink.
C．Seeing things in the darkness with big eyes.
D．Protecting themselves with wings.
【3】What is the major function of the suckers on dumbo octopuses’ tentacles?
A．To keep their balance.
B．To speed up their pace.
C．To sense their surroundings.
D．To take in necessary food.
【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?
A．The Octopuses Studied by Scientists
B．The Dumbo Octopus Found Around a Seamount in California
C．The Elephant-like Dumbo Octopuses Spotted by Robots
D．A New Species Noticed Around the Davidson Seamount
27、Eat less and exercise more-it has long been a magic word for reducing extra weight. But now it seems that all the hard work may have been useless.
Scientists say there are other reasons why people just keep getting bigger. They say that sleeping habits, central heating, medicines and even some pollutants can play a role in weight gain.
Traditionally, people have focused on diet and exercise to solve the problem. However, the scientists from top US and Canadian universities say that other things must be considered.
Less sleep could be partly the reason. In recent years, the average night's sleep has dropped from nine hours to just seven. Sleep shortage changes levels of the hormones that control food intake and body fat and increases hunger and appetite.
If it is too hot or too cold, we burn calories to cool down or heat up. But if the temperature is just right, the calories may be turned into body fat instead.
Those who take medicine to control their blood pressure can often put on weight. Similarly, studies have shown that going on taking the pill can add to a woman's weight.
The nature of a mother may also be the reason with our body shape partly inherited. The overweight are also more likely to look for partners of a similar size. And their children are more likely to be overweight.
The use of pollutants is on the rise, say the researchers. Some man-made chemicals and plastics can lead to weight gain.
Your mother's age and your weight at birth are also important, with older women more likely to have overweight children and underweight babies having a bigger chance of being overweight in later life.
We tend to put on weight as we get older. Giving up smoking can also help pile on the pounds. The scientists from Yale, Cornell and Johns Hopkins University said there was some evidence supporting poor diet and lack of exercise as the main causes of gaining weight.
【1】Which is commonly thought to be effective in losing weight?
A．To keep away from pollutants.
B．To take pills and avoid fatty food.
C．To sleep less to burn more calories.
D．To have less food and take more exercise.
【2】Which of the following statements would the author agree to?
A．Less sleep leads you to take in more food.
B．Unpleasant weather helps you to put on weight.
C．Overweight parents are not likely to have fat children.
D．Medicine for blood pressure helps you lose weight.
【3】What's the main idea of the passage?
A．Some reasons are given why people put on weight.
B．“Eating less and exercise more" is proved out of date.
C．Age plays a key role in people's getting bigger.
D．The public should find new solutions to weight problems.
28、The cost of living in countries like the U.S, Britain, Australia or France has skyrocketed (飞涨，猛涨) in recent years. However, if you’re willing to leave your country and explore life in other areas, there are many countries boasting an extremely cheap and low cost of living. Check out the following countries when planning your next move.
Ecuador
Ecuador is similar to the United States in many ways, and as a result has become a popular American getaway. They even use the U.S. Dollar for their currency. In this country, it’s cheaper to eat out every day than cook for yourself on a budget in the U.S.
Mexico
Although the country is known for its poverty ridden streets, there are many wealthier areas that provide every facility you might need. You can live off a mere $700 to $800 a month in Mexico, and this includes rent for a nice place, facilities, food, and any sightseeing.
Argentina
Argentina has been a popular tourist destination for many years. It has great restaurants, a rich history, and many places to explore. Not to mention, it’s not very expensive to live here. A decent sized home can cost around $139,000, which is relatively cheap in relation to homes in the United States.
Vietnam
Vietnam has also become a popular tourist destination in recent years. There are many million-dollar luxury homes by the beach, but you can find a modest flat or a small home for around $25,000 to $50,000 if you search in the right areas.
【1】How much does it cost to live in Mexico for a year?
A．About $12,000.

29、Grandpa was a carpenter (木匠). One day he was making some boxes for the clothes his church was sending to an orphanage (孤儿院) in Egypt. On his way home, he reached into his shirt pocket to find his glasses, but they were gone. He drove back to the church, but his search turned out to be fruitless.
Suddenly, he realized what happened. The glasses had slipped out of his pocket and fallen into one of the boxes, which he had nailed shut. His new glasses were heading for Africa!
Grandpa had six children and he had paid twenty dollars for the glasses that morning. “It's not fair,” he told God as he drove home. “I've been very faithful (忠诚的) in giving my time and money to YOUR work.”
Several months later, the director of the orphanage was on holiday in the United States. He wanted to visit all the churches that helped him in Egypt, so he came to speak on Sunday night at my grandfather's small church in Chicago.
“But most of all,” he said, “I must thank you for the glasses you sent last year. You see, I had just broken my glasses. Then your boxes arrived. To my surprise, I found a pair of glasses in it and it fit me very well!”
The people listened, happy for the amazing glasses, but thought that the man must have confused their church with another. There were no glasses on their list of items to be sent overseas. Sitting quietly in the back, with tears in his eyes, Grandpa realized that God had played a big trick on him.
【1】Where were Grandpa’s glasses lost?
A. In a church in Egypt. B. In the box he made.
C. On his way home. D. At the orphanage.

32、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Justin and his younger sister, Lily, lived with their parents in a poor neighborhood. Their mother was very sick and their father was struggling to find a job, and they has only a little money with which to buy food. As they had not paid the rent for several months, the landlord was breathing down their necks.
One day, Justin took Lily’s shoes to a shoe repairman to be fixed, but he lost them on the way home. It was not until he got home that he realized he had lost the shoes. He was afraid that his parents would be angry and disappointed, so he begged his sister to keep it secret. Lily agreed and the two decided to share Justin’s running shoes. Lily’s school hours were in the morning, so she would wear them first. After school, she would rush back and give them to Justin. He could then run to his school, which began in the afternoon. Although he ran as fast as he could, Justin often arrived late and was warned by the school.
A long distance race was going to be held for the boys in the city. When Justin learned that the third prize was a new pair of shoes, he decided to take part. He ran home excitedly and promised his sister that he would win her the new shoes.
The day of race arrived. Justin had a strong start, but halfway through the race he began to get tired and his legs began to ache. Getting more and more exhausted he thought only of Lily and his promise to her. Dreaming of the new shoes he would win for his sister gave him strength, and he stayed right behind the two faster runners, determined to finish third. Suddenly, as the finish line drew near, another runner collided (碰撞) with Justin from behind and Justin crashed to the ground.
Paragraph 1: Justin looked up and he saw the other boys rushing ahead.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
