The year of Rabbit is coming. Maybe it’s the best time to talk about the lovely animal in the eyes of different culture. 1.让我们一起来分享一些关于兔子的有趣的事情吧。
In China
Rabbits are quiet but smart, which is shown by the Chinese expression “dongru tuotu”. The fairy tale about Jade (玉) Rabbit living on the moon is spread widely. Another fact is that rabbits can give birth to many baby rabbits at a time. 2 .So in ancient China, it’s common sense that the more children you had, the luckier you would be. The belief made the rabbit a popular symbol of good luck.
In the West
In the West, rabbits are regarded as a kind of lucky animals. 3. If a hunter can catch a rabbit, it’s also a sign of good luck. Another tradition for good luck found in North America and the UK is to say the word “rabbit” on the first morning of every month. 4 .Rabbits also show up in other areas of western culture. It’s a rabbit that Alice follows in the story of Alice in Wonderland. Rabbits are related to Easter. Although the animal appears in many different places, it’s always seen as an animal to be welcomed.
So with it now being the lucky animal’s turn on the Chinese zodiac (生肖),5.我们相信兔年也会给你带来运气和幸福。

24、We don’t know how different our future will be in the future.We can only try to imagine it.
At first we think about human relationship.In the year 2050, we will use computers almost every day.We will be making new friends through the Internet—even our husbands or wives will be met in this way.It will be much faster and easier for us.On the other hand, our relationships with people won’t be as important as they are today—we will feel a little lonely.
Computers will also help us in many other activities in 2050.For example, they will be used by the children at school to make their learning easier.In addition, there will be much more other machines which will play a similar role as computers, like robots which will do the homework for us.
Spending holidays will also be completely different.Traveling to other planets or to the moon will be available for everyone.Means(方式) of transport will, of course, change, too.We will be using solar-powered cars, which will be much cleaner.
We could expect that the faster technological progress would lead to a more polluted environment.But it isn’t true.We will pay more attention to protecting the environment.And, scientists will probably find cures for many dangerous diseases, like cancer or AIDS.Therefore, our surroundings as well as health will be in better condition.
Although we can’t predict(预测) the exact changes which will be made in the world, we often think about them.We worry about our and our children’s future; we have expectations, hopes as well as fears.But I think we should be rather sanguine(乐观的) about our future.We should be happy and believe good things will happen.

25、To us, it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But in fact the umbrella was not invented as protection against the rain. Its first use was as a shade(遮蔽)against the sun.
Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, back in the eleventh century BC.
We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use : it became a symbol of honor and power(权力). In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by those in high office or by royal people such as the kings or queens.
In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. The umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece, but it is believed that the first people in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans. During the middle ages in Europe, the use of the umbrella almost disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it became a symbol of power.
Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn't until the twentieth century that the umbrellas for women began to be made in all kinds of colors.
【1】Ancient people first used umbrellas as ____.
A. a symbol of honor
B. protection against the sun
C. a symbol of power
D. protection against the rain
【2】According to the passage, the umbrella was probably first used in ancient ______.
A. Egypt B. Babylon C. Rome D. China
【3】The underlined word royal might mean _ in Chinese.
A.皇室的 B.富裕的 C.中产的 D.平民的
【4】According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A. The ancient Greeks used the umbrella in their daily life.
B. Europeans hardly used the umbrella during the middle ages.
C. The umbrellas for women were made colorful in ancient times.
D. The style of the umbrella hasn't changed a lot since it was invented
【5】This passage is mainly about _____.
A. the sales of the umbrella
B. the differences among umbrellas
C. the invention of the umbrella
D. the history and the use of the umbrella
26、 “How are you?” is a nice question. It's a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other. But “How are you?” is also a very unusual question. It's a question that often doesn't need an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine”, even if the person's friend isn't fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn't really a question and “Fine” isn't really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello” or “Hi”.
Sometimes, people also don't say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?” the other person might think, “No, I disagree. I think you're wrong…” But it isn't very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “I'm not sure.” It's a nicer way to say that you don't agree with someone.
People also don't say exactly what they are thinking when they want to finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person says “I have to go now.” Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse: “Someone's at the door.” “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn't want to talk any more, but it isn't polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn't hurt the other person.
Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people don't say exactly what they are thinking. It's an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it's part of the game of language.
【1】When a person in America asks “How are you?”, he or she wants to hear “________”.
A.How are you? B.Hello. C.I don't know. D.Fine.
【2】When a person disagrees with someone, it is polite to say “________”.
A.You're wrong. I disagree. B.I'm not sure. C.I'm sure I disagree. D.No, I disagree.
【3】A polite way to finish a talk is to say “________”.
A.You have to go now. B.I want to hang up.
C.I have to go now. D.I don't want to talk any more.
【4】When a person says “I’ve to go now. Someone's at the door”, the person may be ________.
A.giving an excuse B.hurting someone's feeling
C.talking to a person at the door D.going to another place
【5】The rule of the game of language is probably________.
A.Always say what you mean. B.Don't disagree with people.
C.Never say exactly what you are thinking. D.Be polite.
27、Some animals can easily find their way home after a long journey. How do they make it? Scientific research shows that they are born with certain unusual abilities for direction.
A certain kind of ants, for example, can count their steps to avoid getting lost. They can go as far as 110 metres and bring food home. These ants live in the open desert (沙漠), so they have nothing to guide them along the way. It’s like someone walking six kilometres through a dark forest.
Some fish have an unbelievable sense of smell. They can smell even a single drop of their home water in a large sea area. Some sea birds have a similar ability. They are able to make a smell map of their flying area.
Some animals can sense the earth’s magnetic field (磁场), while humans can’t. This magnetic field guides a certain kind of fish when they swim a long way to a place and then back. How can this kind of fish do that? It is still a mystery. Scientists have no good answers yet.
However, animals with such unusual abilities still have difficulty dealing with environmental changes caused by human activities. For example, many birds depend on stars for direction, but they get lost easily at night when city lights are kept on all night. To solve this problem, we can simply turn off some lights at night. Clearly, one small act of humans may mean a lot to animals.
【1】How can a certain kind of ants find their way?
A．By imagining the way.
B．By counting their steps.
C．By walking through a forest.
D．By bringing food home.
【2】What does the underlined word “mystery” in Paragraph 4 probably mean in Chinese?
A．奥秘
B．抉择
C．损害
D．心情
【3】What does the writer advise people to do in the last paragraph?
A．To help animals.
B．To travel at night.
C．To keep city lights on.
D．To develop unusual abilities.
【4】What’s the right structure of the passage (①=Paragraph 1)?
A．①②/③④⑤
B．①/②/③④⑤
C．①/②③④/⑤
D．①②③/④⑤
【5】Which can be the best title for the passage?
A．Animals’ Sense of Magnetic Field
B．Fish’s Sense of Smell
C．Birds’ Sense of Light
D．Animals’ Sense of Direction
28、阅读下面短文，根据语境、音标或单词的提示，在每个空格内填入一个适当的单词，要求所填的词意义准确、形式正确，使短文意思完整、行文连贯。
A young couple decided to go camping in the mountains to celebrate their 【1】 (one) year of marriage. They took with them all the things they would need to go camping—warm 【2】 (cloth), food and a tent.
They went up to the mountains and 【3】 /faʊnd/ the perfect place to set up their tent. After that, they decided to go 【4】 a hike to see more of the mountains.
After a long hike, they went back to their camp, built a fire and cooked 【5】 /ˈdɪnə(r)/. Finally, it was time to go to sleep.
Sometime in the middle of the night, the wife woke her husband 【6】 and said, “Look up at the sky. What do you see?”
Her husband answered without 【7】 (think), “I see millions of stars.”
His wife said, “That’s right. What does that mean to you?”
The husband said, “Well, if there are 【8】 many stars out there, that means there might also be a planet just like 【9】 (we). And if that’s true, then there could be life on one of those planets. That’s kind of exciting.”
His wife said, “You are 【10】 /rɒŋ/. It means that someone has stolen our tent.”
