24、When we think of paper， we think of newspapers and books. But there are many other uses. Only half of the world’s paper is used for books and newspapers.

Paper is very good for keeping you warm. You have perhaps seen homeless men asleep on a large number of newspapers. In Finland(芬兰)， it is sometimes －40℃ in winter. The farmers wear paper boots(靴子) in the snow. Nothing could be warmer.

Each year， more and more things are made of paper. We have had paper cups and plates for a long time. But now we hear that chairs， tables， and even beds can be made of paper. You can wear paper hats， paper dresses， and paper raincoats. When you have used them once， you may throw them away and buy new ones.

The latest use of paper seems to be paper houses. These are not small houses for children to play in， but real， big houses for people to live in. You can buy a house with three rooms for about 500 dollars. It’s cheap. You can put it up by yourself in a few hours， and you can use it for about five years.

25、   Final exams are just around the comer. Liu Haoxuan,14, who studies at Beijing Dayu School, is quite busy. However, he still had to find time to practice his spoken English. That’s because he had to take a new English listening and speaking test.

Liu is not alone. This is a new test for all students who are taking senior high school entrance exams (中考）in Beijing. Junior 3 students have to take an English listening and speaking test that counts for 40 points on their full English exam. The test is taken on a computer. They can take the test twice---once in December and again in March---to try to get the highest score possible. The test was just introduced last year.

During the 30-minute test, students have to fill in blanks, answer questions and retell stories after listening to different materials. “It pushes us to speak. Though it was hard at the beginning, it's a good thing,” Liu said. He got a low score when he first took it last semester. But he kept working hard in order to improve his pronunciation and other skills. He practiced speaking in front of a mirror every day. Later, he got a score of 39 on the test.

Liu Tianyou,14, from Beijing Yuying Middle School, has his own way to prepare for the spoken English test. He uses apps to take practice tests every day. “The apps will score your performance so that you can improve accordingly,” he said. “Also, the practice tests help me learn to take notes properly. They help me grasp topic sentences and connection words.”

26、   As is often the case, parents are very shocked to discover their children have lied to them for the first time. But new research has suggested many parents may not even notice many of the lies their children tell them.

Psychologists have discovered that most parents are over-confident in their children’s honesty and this may impair their ability to discover a lie.

The findings may help to explain why some parents seem to be willing to let their children get away with almost anything even in the face of the evidence (迹象). They say parents suffer from a “truth bias (偏见)” with their own teenagers, but when faced with lies from other people’s children, they have less difficulty telling if a statement is true or not.

Dr. Angela Evans, a psychologist at Brock University in Canada, said, “The close relationship that parents share with their own children may lead to parents failing to discover their children’s lies. Parents’ truth bias may result in parents being less doubtable of their children, allowing them to successfully cheat (欺骗) them.”

Most children are thought to start lying as early as two years old but start telling more believable lies at around the age of four years old. Learning how to lie is considered as a key part of cognitive (认知的) and social development in children. But many parents are shocked when their children start lying to them. In their study, Dr Evans and her colleagues filmed 108 children aged between 8 and 16 as they performed a test after being asked not to look at the answers. They were then asked afterwards if they had looked, with 50 truthfully denying (否认) looking, 49 lying about looking and 9 admitting (承认) to looking.

Videos of those denying looking were then shown to 152 parents of children aged 8 to 16, 80 of whom had children who had taken part in the test. The researchers found that the parents were less able to discover lies told by their own children than by other people’s children.

【1】What does the underlined word “impair” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A.Show. B.Harm. C.Realize. D.Develop.

【2】When lying to their parents, children can’t be easily found because ________.

A.their parents aren’t prepared for the lies

B.their parents can’t notice any of their lies

C.they are very good at telling lies

D.they know how to lie to their parents

【3】What does Dr. Evans want to find about children’s lying?

A.What makes parents lose trust in their children.

B.What causes children to tell lies to their parents.

C.What makes parents fail to see their children’s lies.

D.What affects children’s relations with their parents.

【4】What can be inferred from Dr. Evans’s study in the last two paragraphs?

A.Parents prefer to protect their own children.

B.Lying is a part of children’s development.

C.Children aged 8 to 16 are very likely to tell lies.

D.Parents can easily discover lies told by children of others.

27、

【2】If your grandfather wants to have a physical examination,which number should he call?

A.65378529. B.55659640. C.65378259. D.55659604.

【3】If a couple want to enjoy the Culture Fashion Week,how much should they pay for VIP seats?

28、   “When it comes to Earth, there’s no time to waste,” the Earth Day Network says. And that is true. 【1】 (protect) our environment is very important. World Earth Day was created in 1970 to raise people’s e【2】  awareness.【3】  April 22, people around the world celebrate Earth Day.

Every year there is a special theme. The theme was “Trees for Earth” in 2016. Their goal is to 【4】 7.8 billion trees by 2020.

That’s a big goal, and you might wonder【5】  trees are so important. Well for one, they can help stop climate change. Carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) is a chemical in our atmosphere, but humans make too much of it. Each person makes about 2.3 tons a year, which is b【6】 for the environment.

Well guess what! Trees take in carbon dioxide and improve air quality. Planting new trees is important because people cut down countless t【7】.

According to Time, the total number of trees in the world has been almost cut in half since human civilization (文明) 【8】  (begin). So we need to plant more to replenish (补充) the ones we’ve lost. One tree can take in 48 pounds (21.8kg) of carbon dioxide per year. And it’s still one of the【9】  (cheap) and best ways to get rid of carbon dioxide.

But don’t forget that you can also help the environment by cutting down on how much energy or w【10】 you use every day. Every little bit helps!
