24、 Money is what people use to buy things they need or want. A long time ago, people didn’t use money. So how did they get the things they wanted? Well, there is a long and interesting story about this.
At first, they would exchange something they had for what they needed. For example, if the shoemaker needed some bread, he would give the baker shoes and the baker would give him bread. This was called “bartering”(易货). Bartering worked fine for a while. But after the baker had too many shoes, the shoemaker still needed more bread. What could they do? The solution to this problem was money.
There were many earlier forms of money, such as cattle(牛), salt, grain and shells(贝壳). But it was not easy to move them to far-away places or store them. So coins began to take the place of things.
Coins had a fixed(固定的) value and could be stored. It became possible for people to trade in a standardized(标准的) way. Different coins are worth different amounts. Metal money was used in China as early as 1000 BC.
About three hundred years ago, paper money came into wider use. Paper money is cheaper to make than coins. It is also easier to carry around. Now people use paper money and coins in most countries.
Cash(现金) has been the most popular form of money. But these days, it seems that things have changed. Cashless payment has come into our lives and changed our world. China was the first country in the world to use paper money. Now, centuries later, it may become the first cashless society soon. Cashless payment apps such as Alipay(支付宝) and WeChat Pay are becoming more common in China. The buyer just scans the QR code (扫描二维码) of the seller, or the other way around. No real money is needed at all. Is tomorrow already there?
【1】The underlined word “It” in Para 5 refers to ______.
A.Bartering B.coins C.paper money D.cashless payment
【2】We can see the passage in ______.
A.a story book
B.an ad. of a health center

D.a social magazine
【3】Nowadays ______ becoming more common in China.

【4】The best title of the passage should be ______.

25、 Love is a two-way street
A father sat at his desk and looked at his bills when his young son rushed in and announced: “ Dad, because today is your birthday and you’re 40 years old, I’m going to give you 40 kisses, one for each year!” When the boy started making good on his word(履行诺言),the father shouted: “ Andrew, don’t do it now. I’m too busy!”
The boy soon fell silent as tears fell from his big blue eyes. Feeling sorry, the father said: “ You can finish later.” The boy said nothing but walked away. That evening the father said: “ Come and finish the kisses now, Andrew!”
Unfortunately, a few days later after the father’s birthday, the boy had an accident and died. His father wrote: “ If only(要是··· ···,该多好)I could tell him how sorry I am for my thoughtless words, and how much my heart is hurting.”
Love is a two-way street. We must warmly accept any loving act, or others will take it as a “NO” and it can leave a scar(伤疤). If we don’t receive love, our life will lose its true meaning. Nothing is more important than accepting love from those who are near and dear to us.

26、We see with our eyes and taste with our tongues. Ears are for hearing, skin is for feeling and noses are for smelling. Would anyone say that ears can smell, or that tongues can see? Actually, yes. Paul Bach-y-Rita, a scientist at the University of Wisconsin, believes that the senses can changeable. For example, a tongue can be used for seeing. The brain, as we know, is a complex organ(复杂的器官). Even when part of it is hurt, it will try to carry out the same function by sending the function to another area of the brain.
A college student was asked to take part in an experiment. In the experiment, his eyes were covered with a small video camera. The camera was connected to a long plastic line which went into his mouth. A computer would change the video’s picture. The picture would travel through the plastic line as an electric current(电流), reaching the electrodes(电极板) inside the student’s mouth. The scientist would roll a ball towards his right side, left side, or centre, and the student would have to catch it. When the scientist rolled the ball, pain passed over the student’s tongue. For the position of the pain on the tongue, the student reached out his hand and caught the ball.
If the brain can see a ball through a camera and a wet tongue, blindness and deafness can be overcame.
【1】How many senses are talked about in the first paragraph?
A. 4. B. 5. C. 3. D. 2.
【2】What is the right order according to the experiment?
①The scientist rolled a ball.

27、
Have you ever been in a conflict (冲突)? Do you know how to solve it? Conflict resolution is a peaceful way of trying to deal with a conflict. Both sides in the conflict explain what they think happened to cause it. The person who listens to both sides is called the mediator (调解人).
After both sides tell what they think happened to cause the conflict, they discuss ways to solve it. They try to come up with a “resolution” that both sides agree to. They cannot be angry during the communication. Everyone should use good listening and attending skills while talking. If voices get too loud or it appears that someone is angry, the mediator will speak up and have them treat each other with respect. After different suggestions are shared in how to mediate the conflict, it is time for discussing the best solution(解决办法).
Here is an example of how conflict resolution works step by step in a school playground setting:
♦Someone says a student pushed him on the football field.
♦The person who was accused as the “pusher” says it was actually an accident.
♦The person who was pushed gets the mediator.
♦The mediator takes the two persons to a quieter place, away from others to talk.
♦The mediator calms them down and lets them know he understands their feelings.
♦Each person describes what happened.
♦The mediator repeats what he heard, so it is clear to everyone.
♦The mediator asks for ideas to solve the problem.
♦The two persons offer their own solutions.
♦The two persons have a discussion and come to an agreement.
♦The mediator makes sure the persons follow the solution.
♦The mediator offers praise for solving the problem.
Conflict resolution can be used in many environments. It encourages people to tell what really happened, to share their feelings, and to work together peacefully to solve the problem.
It offers people workable steps to reach an agreement with the help of a mediator.
