24、National parks are large areas of public land. They give a safe home for local plants and animals. They help keep the air and water clean. They also give us the best trip. Today, there are nearly 7,000 national parks around the world. Forbes has listed 12 of the most beautiful ones in the world that will surprise you with their amazing landscapes, geographic wonders and colourful plants and animals.
The Grand Canyon National Park of the US is a great wonder of the natural world. It is best known for its size and depth(深度). It is 446 kilometres long, up to 29 kilometres wide, and 1.6 kilometres deep. The immensity of the canyon makes people think big. Every year, about 5 million people visit here. Taking a tour in the South Rim offers visitors the park's full views, while the North Rim shows beautiful wild flowers.
If you love animals, you'll like the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. The “Big Five” live there. They are the lion, African elephant, African leopard, black rhinoceros and African buffalo. The name “Big Five” came from the five animals that were hardest to catch. Now they are what people most want to see in the wild. If you visit the park, you should never miss the migration(迁徙) of over 1.5 million wildebeest(角马) and 250,000 zebras every year. This is the most famous site of the park.

25、My aunt Cindy has her own cake shop. She can make nice cakes for special occasions, such as weddings. I spent a week last summer helping her in the shop. Making a nice cake is harder than I thought it would be.
I practised for hours in Aunt Cindy’s shop. I made little coloured dots (圆点) on a piece of wax paper (蜡纸). Unluckily, I could not get the dots to be the same shape or size.
I decided to take a break from making the dots, so I helped move cakes. However, that was not easy for me, either. I dropped a cake when trying to take it out of the freezer (冷冻箱) by myself. Luckily one of Aunt Cindy’s assistants (店员) was there. He saved the cake from hitting the floor.
It takes a whole team to make a huge cake. That’s one of the most important things I learned. Each person on the team has to be great at his or her job. Aunt Cindy designs the cakes on paper, Larry does the mixing and baking, and assistants carve and put frosting on the cakes. Aunt Cindy and Larry do most of the decorating while the assistants help make small parts like flowers and figures. Building a big cake is like playing a team sport. If one person doesn’t do his or her job well, the whole team pays for that.
Even though I was not much help to my aunt, I’m glad I spent the week in Aunt Cindy’s shop. Designing cakes takes more than just baking skills. It takes art and painting skills too. Now when I see a really nice cake, I don’t think of eating it first. Instead, I look at it and wonder how many hours it took to make.
【1】What does the underlined word “occasions” mean in this passage?
A. events B. needs
C. places D. ideas
【2】Why did the writer take a break from putting coloured dots on wax paper?
A. Because she practised for hours and became bored.
B. Because she could not make the dots good enough for a cake.
C. Because Aunt Cindy did not want her to make any more dots.
D. Because Aunt Cindy wanted her to help somewhere else.
【3】Who designs the cakes on paper?
A. Aunt Cindy. B. Larry.
C. Assistants. D. The writer.
【4】What was the main reason the writer was glad to have spent a week in her aunt’s shop?
A. She got to practise making coloured dots.
B. She learned the importance of teamwork.
C. She got to take a cake out of the freezer.
D. She learned art and painting skills.
【5】What is this passage mainly about?
A. Helping an aunt design cakes.
B. Spending a week in a cake shop.
C. Working as the assistant to a cake decorator.
D. Discovering that making a nice cake is difficult.
26、 Now short videos have a great number of views online. Many people create and share short videos on popular video apps like Douyin and Kuaishou. You can also add music and special effects to your videos. The videos are 15 seconds to a few minutes long. They show people doing activities like cooking, exercising and singing.
Teenagers enjoy these videos. More than 50 percent of first and second year high school students said they enjoy watching these short videos. About 47 percent have posted their own videos.
The videos let teenagers see funny and exciting things they wouldn’t usually see. Many teens like to share the fun things they do with others as well. For example, a 12-year-old user named Xiao Qianyu has posted videos showing her learning jazz dance. This has won her lots of fans.
But the videos can also bring trouble. Some students spend too much time watching them and don’t spend enough time studying. Some videos have vulgar(低俗的) content that is not good for teenagers’ mind.
To deal with these problems, Douyin added something new in the app. It stops the app if someone uses the app for over two hours a day. At the same time, the goverment also did something to stop vulgar content videos from video apps.
【1】What can teenagers do by using the short video apps?
A.Talk with their friends for a few minutes.
B.Share videos about exciting things.
C.Enjoy videos for three hours a day.
D.Make their study better.
【2】Para. 2 mainly tells us ________.
A.how teenagers make their short videos.
B.why teenagers like to use short video apps.

B.a storybook
C.an advertisement poster
D.a science magazine

— Mandy, October 16, 2023
The food here was great. I also loved the decoration of this cafe. There was only one waitress, so she was running around. It took a long time to order but it was worth the wait. The cafe closes at 3 p.m. , but sometimes they run out of food before then.
