24、A company named Manta5 in New Zealand has developed an electric bicycle that can be used on water—the Manta5 eBike.

The company describes its invention as half-bike and half-plane. It says riding one feels like normal cycling, but on the water. It uses a battery (电池), motor and underwater wings to move across water about 100 kilometers in five hours. The bikes are made to be strong, but still light enough to carry.

Manta5 was started in early 2011 by Guy Howard and Roland who are both passionate about cycling. They used to go cycling and fell in love with it deeply. Howard had wanted there to be more choices for would-be water cyclists, and when he met Roland, he decided to try and make that happen. It took the company eight years to develop the bike, but it was able to show a prototype (原型) in 2017. The company says that a short video of that first bike got 350 million views on the Internet.

The first bikes that Manta5 produced sold out in six months. It says that riders in New Zealand are already fans, and are using them to ride across lakes, rivers and ocean waves.

The company now hopes the bikes will become popular in the US as well. At $8,990, however, the eBike certainly isn’t cheap.

Greg Johnston, CEO at Manta5, says that learning to ride the water bike is like cycling for the first time: You might have to try a few times, but it’s a lot of fun once you get the hang of it. The company even believes that in the near future, biking across the water could be a sport, and even be included in the Olympics.

【1】The eBike is ______.

A．strong and heavy

B．small and strong

C．strong and light

D．light and modern

【2】The underlined word “passionate” means ______.

A．confident

B．bored

C．worried

D．crazy

【3】Which of the following is TRUE about the eBike?

A．The eBike can run on the road like a normal bike.

B．Cycling across the water is one of the sports in the Olympic Games.

C．The eBikes in the US aren’t so popular as those in New Zealand now.

D．The company spent a very short time to invent the eBike.

【4】People ______ the first bikes in New Zealand.

A．showed interest in

B．refused to buy

C．tried to fix up

D．managed to protect

【5】The passage is mainly about ______.

A．a bicycle company in New Zealand

B．an electric bicycle for the water

C．Howard and Roland

D．a new popular sport in the US

25、   The 18-year-old deliveryman(快递员) Mao Zhaomu first hit the headlines(头条) in March after sending a text message in English to one of his customers, a student in Sichuan International Studies University.

“Hello, your phone was power off when I called you. Your meal have been put by me on the vending machine(自动售货机). Please carry it home after you see the message. Thank you. Have a pleasant meal.” Surprised to receive a message in English from a deliveryman, the student posted a screenshot(屏幕截图) of it on Weibo. The post soon was viral, and more and more people got to know him.

Mao later explained he just wanted to practice his language skills at that time, and was sure that all SISU students would understand.

One year ago, after dropping out of school, Mao worked as a deliveryman for a restaurant near the SISU. He also got a job at a nearby restaurant to “talk with foreigners”. In order to keep his dream of learning English alive, Mao chatted in English-language groups online every day after finishing work.

He was inspired to continue his language education by his former English teacher. “My English teacher was also a self-taught exam student,” Mao said, “I believed I can do that, too.”

Early last month, Mao stopped delivering food and concentrated(专心) on preparations for the examination and college application(申请).

Finally, his efforts paid off. He received his admission(录取) letter from SISU on August 10. “Now, when I walk in SISU, I am not a deliveryman, but a student.” Mao said.

26、One morning, Wu Liang discovered that her classroom had changed. She found that the desks were no longer in rows, but pushed together to make eight bigger desks. She was so excited about it for the first two days that she couldn’t listen to the teachers carefully. But soon she and her classmates got used to this new classroom arrangement (安排). “Now our class is quieter,” said Wu. “What’s more, we can come up with our own ideas and learn more through discussion. It’s a better way to study.”

 Li Yu liked it, too. “Group members first discuss,” he said, “and then present to the whole class. It makes us believe in ourselves.” This was part of a reform (改革) at Li’s school. The school made this reform because they wanted to offer students easier ways to study and more chances to discuss. “Our school hopes to improve students’ abilities to study by themselves and work in groups.” said Zhang Ming, an English teacher.

However, the reform has demanded more from teachers. Now they have only 15 minutes to give a lesson that would have been taught in 45 minutes before. It is difficult to teach in such a short time. The teachers have to find better ways to teach more effectively.
