24、判断下列句子是否符合短文内容,符合的用 “T” 表示,不符合的用 “F”表示。
Jenkins was a jewler, a master craftsman (工匠) in the Silkstone Jewellery company. Ten years ago, he made a large diamond ring for the company. It was worth $2,000. The second ring looked exactly like the first one. Jenkins knew it would pass all the usual tests—except one possibility. Jenkins gave the much more valuable ring to his wife on her fortieth birthday, and the couple flew to Paris for a weekend. Later, the company sold the ring for $6,000.
Six months ago the buyer brought it back to Silkstone’s head office. “It’s a faulty diamond,” he said. “It isn’t worth the high price I paid.”
He explained the facts. His wife’s car had caught fire in an accident. She escaped, but the ring had come off her finger. It had fallen to the ground and been damaged in the great heat of the burning petrol.
The company had to agree. They knew that no fire on earth can ever damage a perfect diamond. Someone had taken the real diamond and put a faulty stone in its place. The question was: who?
A picture of the ring appeared in the newspaper. A professional photographer recognized the ring. The next day there was another picture in the paper: it showed a famous actress walking out to a plane for Paris. Behind the actress there was a woman wearing a large diamond ring. “Do you know the woman with the lovely diamond ring?” the papers asked the readers.
At his trial (审讯), Jenkins asked the judge to consider eighty-one similar crimes against the Silkstone Jewellery company.
The judge said, “You are a master craftsman who turned bad. I feel rather sorry. But I must send you to prison for seven years.”
【1】From the passage we can tell that the master craftsman is good at making diamond rings.
【2】Jenkins made a large diamond ring for his wife on her fortieth birthday.
【3】The Silkstone company didn’t know about the faulty diamond ring they had sold for $2,000 until they received the complaint from the buyer.
【4】The faulty ring looked just like the real one except that it would be seriously damaged in a fire.
【5】The actress in the photograph gave the judge very important clues.
【6】It was the professional photographer that helped to find the criminal.
【7】The master craftsman wasn’t put into prison at last.
25、 On the first day of college, our teacher asked us to get to know someone who we didn't know.
I stood up to look around when a hand touched my shoulder. I turned around to find an old lady. She smiled at me and said, "Hello, my name is Rose. I'm eighty-seven years old." I was surprised and asked, "Why are you in college?"
"I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one!" she told me. After class we walked together and shared what we had. We became good friends.
Rose became a campus icon. In our school, almost everyone loved her and studied from her. She easily made friends wherever she went. At the end of the term, we invited Rose to make a speech. I'll never forget what she taught us. She said, "There are some secrets to staying young, being happy and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You've got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die. We have so many people walking around who are dead and don't even know it! There is a great difference between growing older and growing up. Anybody can grow older. That doesn't take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity in change.”
One week after graduation Rose died peacefully. Over two thousand college students attended her funeral. They came to honor the wonderful woman who taught that it's never too late to be all you can possibly be.
【1】Rose became a campus icon, because ________.
A.she was the oldest student in the college

26、Do You Go To Sleep In Class?
The “Acronym”, our student newspaper, reports that most students go to sleep at 1: 30 a. m. Even if that’s an exaggeration(夸张), it’s too close to the truth. Scientists say teenagers should sleep nine hours each night. But that’s hard to do.
Some even “pull all-nighters”. These are lazy students who have homework due to(到期) the next day that they haven’t done. In the morning they don’t look healthy and you can tell who has been doing it.
One of my classmates did a survey(调查) on the problem. She found that most kids pull all-nighters to finish homework, but some do it for other reasons, such as playing computer games!
Maybe our lack of sleep is because of laziness — I think I’m a lazy student — or maybe it’s because we have too much to do in American high schools.
I usually go to bed around midnight. If I stayed up past 1: 30 a. m., I wouldn’t get any work done. I’d be falling asleep at my computer. My classes begin at 7:30 a.m. I’m partly awake in my first class. By the second, I’m slightly tired and sleepy. By my third class, I’m sleepy. By midday I’m finally wide-awake. But by 3: 00 p. m., I’m slowing down again.
Most American high schools seem to have such a problem.
High school classes start at 7: 30 a. m., so students have to wake up one and a half hours before that to get ready and catch the bus. It’s believed that lack of sleep can do harm to both grades and health.
Some schools are paying attention. Classes in those schools start at 8:30 a. m.
【1】What’s the problem talked about in the passage?
A.Many kids have too much homework to do.
B.Many teenagers don’t have enough sleep.
C.Many children are crazy about playing computer games.
D.Many kids are too lazy to finish their homework on time.
【2】The underlined expression “pull all-nighters” most probably means ________.
A.开夜车 B.上夜班 C.睡懒觉 D.补作业
【3】Which of the following is NOT a reason mentioned in the passage?
A.Laziness. B.Homework. C.Housework. D.Computer games.
【4】What’s the idea suggested at the end of the passage?
A.Later start of classes. B.Less homework.
C.Going to bed early. D.Eating healthy food.
27、阅读下列内容,从每小题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案
Great news! Archaeologists(考古学家) confirm that the tomb found in Xihu township of Yangzhou belongs to Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. Do you know Emperor Yang Guang? He is considered as one of the worst tyrants(君主) who brought the Sui Dynasty to an end in Chinese history. But in fact, he started the construction of the Grand Canal(大运河) to connect the North and the South, making Yangzhou a transportation hub (中心)city.
As we know, Emperor Yang loved Yangzhou very much. Throughout his life, he paid three visits to Yangzhou. On his first tour to Yangzhou, he stayed here for eight months. And the second time, he enjoyed an extravagant lifestyle in Yangzhou. He watched the song and dance shows all day and stayed in Yangzhou for nearly a year. The third time, he enjoyed himself drinking wine without planning to go back to the capital. It lasted for almost one and a half years. In the year AD 618, Emperor Yang was killed by his followers in one of his palaces in Yangzhou, and the Sui Dynasty ended.
Everyone complains that the Sui Dynasty ended because of the Grand Canal. However, it is still an important way for people to travel. In the year AD 605, Emperor Yang ordered the canal to be dug. Digging such a long canal proved to be very difficult. 3.6 million people worked on it and in less than a year many of them lost their lives. When the construction was completed, the journey from the north to the south became more direct. It is the longest canal in the world. It runs from Beijing to Hangzhou, covering a distance of nearly 1,800 kilometres and joining five rivers including the Yellow River and the Yangtze River. Even today, the Grand Canal still plays an important role in travel. Every day, ships go up and down the canal, carrying things between the north and the south.
【1】During his life, how long did Emperor Yang stay in Yangzhou in total?
A. One and a half years.
B. Two years and a half.
C. Two years and eight months.
D. Three years and two months.
【2】Which of the following is true?
A. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty is considered one of the best tyrants.
B. Emperor Yang was killed by the robbers in one of his palaces in Yangzhou.
C. Everyone complains that the Sui Dynasty ended because of the canal.
D. The canal runs from Beijing to Yangzhou, covering a distance of nearly 1,800 kilometres.
【3】The best title should be “______________”.
A. Emperor Yang Guang and the Grand Canal
B. The tomb found in Xihu township of Yangzhou
C. The life of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty
D. The construction of the Grand Canal
