27、A ban on smoking in public places has come into effect in China — home to a third of the world’s smokers. The move is aimed at controlling the number of deaths from smoking-related diseases, running at a million a year. But the rules have been criticized, because they do not include punishments for those who choose to ignore them. Many business owners hate rules that force them to ban smoking because many customers do not like the rules and complain. The rules do not allow smoking in places like restaurants, hotels, railway stations or theaters, but not at the office. Employers have a duty to warn staff off the dangers of smoking but do not have to forbid them from lighting up at their desks.
Shanghai introduced similar rules a year ago, but people do not seem to take much notice of them. Often you find people smoking at the next table while you are eating your meal or having a drink in a bar. The problem is that the rules do not include punishments for businesses or individuals who ignore them.
It appears that many Chinese people are unaware of the dangers of smoking. Research suggests that only one in four knows the harm cigarettes of second-hand smoke can cause. Officials say they have to try to persuade people not to smoke to reduce the numbers dying from smoking-related diseases. But it is hard to deal with the problem and there is still a long way to go.
【1】The number of smokers in China makes up about ______ of the world’s smokers.
A. 66% B. 44% C. 33% D. 55%
【2】Why have the rules been criticized by some people?
A. Because those people don’t want to be punished.
B. Because they do not include punishments for those who ignore the rules.
C. Because the rules are ignored by all the people who smoke.
D. Because nobody takes notice of the rules.
【3】What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A. How to punish those who ignore the ban.
B. What the dangers of smoking are.
C. Why it’s hard to ban smoking.
D. How the non-smokers suffer from second-hand smoke.
28、An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old son. Suddenly a crow landed on their window. The father asked his son,“What is that?”The son replied,“That’s a crow.”
After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time, The son said,“Father, I told you just now. It is a crow.”After a little while, the father asked his son the same question for the third time,“What is that?”This time, the son said to his father in a low and cold tone,“It’s a crow, a crow.”
After a moment, the father yet again asked his son for the fourth time,“What is that?”This time his son shouted at the father,“Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again? I have told you already, ‘IT IS A CROW.’ Are you not able to understand this?”
A minute later the father went to his room and came back with a diary, which he had kept since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page.
“Today my little son aged 3 was sitting with me on the sofa when a crow suddenly landed on the window edge. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied him 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I did not at all feel angry, but instead felt affection for my son.”
If your parents reach old age, do not look at them as a burden, but speak to them gently, and be kind to them. From today say this aloud,“I want to see my parents happy forever. They have cared for me ever since I was a little child. They have always showered me with love. I will take care of my old parents in the BEST way no matter how they behave.”

C. He tried to remind his son of what he did in the past.
D. He didn’t want to be treated as a burden.
29、Every year, some lucky students will receive offers from their dream universities. But before they are admitted, they might have to go through an interview. This might make them think: “How do I prepare for the interview?”
【1】
It’s impossible to decide which applicant to admit from the application materials alone. The interview is an opportunity for the school to learn more about the applicant—to put a face to a name. Besides, the interview can be used to examine the applicant’s professional knowledge. 【2】
Different kinds of interviews
There are three main kinds of interviews. The first is an online interview. 【3】 The second is an on-site interview at an appointed site, and the last is an in-person interview at the school.

31、背诵课文填空
May 24, 2005 will live in my mind forever. The day started to go wrong 【1】 【2】 I left home. Normally, the school bus arrives at 7:30, but that day it didn't arrive at all!
