24、
When you think of the Arctic, you imagine an icy land of white snow. Others imagine it as the last really clean place left on Earth. We have polluted the deepest oceans with plastic rubbish, and now, CNN says, “It’s the Arctic’s turn.”
German scientists have recently found microplastics in Arctic snow. Microplastics are pieces of plastic smaller than 5 millimeters. Sadly, the scientists found 1,800 pieces of microplastics per liter(升) of snow. That may cause terrible air pollution.
How is plastic pollution reaching the Arctic? According to scientists, “It’s clear that most of the microplastics in the snow come from the air. They fall off plastic objects and are moved by the wind. They mix with ice in the air and fall to the ground as snow. ”
Are they bad for us? We do know that our bodies cannot take in “large” pieces of microplastics. However, if the plastics are small enough, they can find ways into our bodies and stay there for a long time, which can be bad for our health.
Microplastics have also been found in rivers and oceans around the world. Research has found that they flow over long distances and into our oceans, damaging ecosystems(生态环境) along the way. They start in our wastewater, when we wash clothes with plastic fibers(纤维). The wastewater then flows into rivers and out to sea, where they are eaten by sea animals. If people then eat these animals, it means that we’re eating the plastic as well.
【1】According to the passage, microplastics are ______.
A.pieces of plastic bigger than 5 millimeters
B.pieces of metal smaller than 5 millimeters
C.pieces of plastic smaller than 5 millimeters
D.pieces of plastic smaller than 5 centimeters
【2】Which is the correct order of the following events?
①Waste water flows into rivers and seas.②People eat animals in the sea.
③People wash clothes with plastic fibers. ④Microplastics are eaten by sea animals.
A.③①④②
B.①③②④
C.③①②④
D.③②①④
【3】Which of the following about Microplastics is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Our bodies cannot take in “large” pieces of microplastics.
B.Microplastics flow over long distances before into oceans.
C.The deepest oceans have been polluted with plastic rubbish.
D.Microplastics are only eaten by sea animals.
【4】The writer wrote the passage mainly to tell us ______.
A.not to travel to the Arctic
B.not to eat animals in the oceans
C.to use fewer plastic objects
D.to wear a mask(口罩) when going out
【5】Where is the passage probably taken from? ________

25、 Once upon a time the frogs decided to ask Jupiter, the king in Roman mythology(罗马神话), for a king of their own. Jupiter felt it funny. “Here you are,” he said, throwing a log(原木) of wood with a splash into the lake where they lived. “Here is a king for you.”
The frogs dived under the water in fright, going as deep into the mud as they could. After a time one of the braver ones swam carefully to the surface to take a look at the new king.
“He looks very quiet, “said the frog. “Perhaps he is asleep.” The log stayed quite still on the smooth lake and one by one more frogs came up to take a look. They swam closer and closer until at last they leaped(跳跃) right on top of it,quite forgetting that they had ever been frightened. Young frogs began to use it as a diving board; old frogs sat sunning themselves on it; mother frogs taught their tadpoles(蝌蚪) their first jumps on its bark(树皮).
One day an old frog said, “This is a dull kind of a king , you know. I thought we wanted someone to keep us in order. This one just lies around and lets us do what we please.” So the frogs went once more to Jupiter. “Can’t you give us a better king? ”they asked. “Someone who will be a bit more active than the one you sent before?”
Jupiter was not in a good mood. “Silly little animals,” he thought. “I shall give them just what they deserve this time.” He sent a long-legged stork(鹳) to the lake.
The frogs were very impressed and crowded admiringly round. But before they would even begin the speeches of welcome they had prepared, the stork stuck his long beak(尖嘴) into the water and began to eat up as many frogs as he could see.
“That’s not what we meant at all,” gasped the frogs as they dived once more into the mud. But this time Jupiter would not listen. “I only gave you what you asked for,” he said, “Perhaps it will teach you not to complain about things so much.”
【1】How can we tell that the first king wasn’t frightening?
A.They swam carefully and looked at the king. B.No matter what the frogs did, the king kept still.
C.The tadpoles were scared to jump on the king. D.The king was sleeping and didn’t move at all.
【2】Why did the frogs ask for another king?
A.Because the frogs needed a frightening king. B.Because it controlled the frogs too much.
C.Because it was not active and did nothing at all. D.Because it was too bad to become a diving board.
【3】The sentence “I shall give them just what they deserved this time.” in Paragraph 5 means that .
A.Jupiter wanted to help the poor animals B.animals would get what they really wanted
C.animals should learn something by getting punished D.Jupiter was sad and tried to make them clever
【4】The underlined word “That” in the last paragraph refers to .
A.The stork killing many animals. B.The God making fun of them.
C.The second king being dull again. D.The second king being very popular.
【5】What can we learn from the story?
A.Don’t believe in Jupiter. B.All the frogs were stupid.
C.All kings are bad to the frogs. D.Don’t complain so much in life.
26、 Success doesn’t begin until you begin the walk down the pathway towards your aim. And your walk down the path always begins with a baby step.Why do we call them baby steps?Are they really anything more important than our next steps down the life’s pathway?
Baby steps are the first steps we take as an act of faith(信念). We see others stepping out and we want to show our ability to walk by following them.As we grow, we continue our development by taking additional(额外的)baby steps. Sometimes we fall; sometimes we fail. After that, all steps become an act of faith; we just become more practiced. If you say to yourself. “'I don’t want to make a fool of myself” or “I’m not good at this”, you will probably never take the baby steps towards your aims and end up in your own self-pity.
As a culture, we pay much attention to results. We think about every risk that must be taken to reach our aims. There are few people who are excellent performers of any tasks the first time they try them. They fail and succeed. Then, they build upon their abilities learned each time. They practice their skills and use their talents through baby steps before they are ready to prove themselves to the whole world.
So learn to take those baby steps to reach the goals before you. As you become more experienced, your baby steps become a walk, then a jump, and finally a sprint. That’s how our baby steps lead us through the marathon of life.
【1】What does the writer mainly discuss in the passage?
A.The importance of baby steps.
B.The power of faith in our life.
C.The abilities to achieve success.
D.The cause of cultural differences.

A.Aim.
B.Support.
C.Faith.
D.Practice.
【3】In Paragraph 3, the writer expresses the idea that ________.
A.no one can succeed with working hard
B.grown-ups should learn from babies in dealing with hard tasks
C.baby steps play a key role in leading us to success
D.we must make full use of our skills in order to reach our aims
【4】What’s the meaning of the underlined word “sprint” in the passage?
A.Fly away.
B.Run fast.
C.Fall down.
D.Get success.
【5】What’s the writer’s tone(语气)in the passage?
A.Encouraging.
B.Light-hearted.
C.Doubtful.
D.Regretful
27、Both the young and the old may feel lonely. A three-year-old child will feel lonely when it is left alone, and an old man over eighty years old is often afraid to live alone, too.
Some people feel lonely because they may not have enough time to make friends. Not only the quiet, shy people may feel lonely. Some people are active and outgoing, but they are sometimes afraid to talk and make friends with others. They always try to hold other people away from them. They may seem to have lots of friends, but inside they are hurting.
Are you lonely? If your answer is “yes”, you may need to work hard enough! Here are some tips to think about:
To be wanted and needed is a big answer to loneliness. Is there any way you can help other people? Try to do something helpful for others even if you are very busy. By helping other people, we find friends and lose loneliness.
Do you have an interest or hobby? Find a group of people with this interest and join them.
Live in the real world! The world on the Internet is not a real world and it is very different from the real life. The students asleep in class are mostly those who often surf the net through the night. As a result, they’ll get lost in the real world.
Don’t wait for someone to phone, or write, or email you, you call them. And if they seem too busy, it doesn’t mean you are not welcome. Try another time!
When you’ve done anything wrong to other people, don’t be too proud to say sorry. You must do that even if you find it hard to open your mouth.
