26、We feel angry or bad about the things we did or did not achieve, about the things that we cannot have, and many other things. It seems that everyone carries their own bad emotions. But neither guilt nor anger can help us. 【1】
These bad emotions don’t do anything good for us at all. So you might ask yourself — is it possible to put down this heavy burden and give yourself a break? It is quite possible. Start by actually looking at your feelings. 【2】 Why do we carry them for so long instead of putting them down? Can we live without them?
By thinking about our bad emotions, we can find healthy ways to deal with them. 【3】 They provide no relief. Instead, there are better ways to solve them. One of the best ways is forgiveness.
Forgiveness is a powerful tool. We should forgive ourselves first. We shouldn’t keep bad emotions inside. 【4】 This is not always easy. But when we learn to forgive ourselves, it becomes easier to forgive others as well.
There is nothing good about carrying years of emotional burdens. By forgiving ourselves and others, we can abandon our burdens and feel better about ourselves. The moment you do this, you will start to feel a lot lighter. Years of heaviness will be magically lifted. 【5】
A．How do they get inside of us?
B．How do you deal with bad emotions?
C．Unhealthy behaviors are not the way to do this.
D．Over time, they can be heavy weights on our shoulders.
E．Forgetting the past is a good way to deal with bad emotions.
F．We must also forgive others who have made us guilty or angry.
G．You’ll start to feel like you have more energy and you’ll be much happier with your life.
27、 It has always been thought that when it comes to tornadoes, the most peaceful place is the centre: the eye of the storm. But a photo taken this week in the small Canadian town of Three Hills, Alberta, suggests that there is perhaps no place more peaceful than inside the calm mind of Theunis Wessels.
It all started when Mr Wessels’ wife, Cecilia, was warned by their nine-year-old daughter that he was cutting grass in their yard when a violent tornado appeared in the distance. When her husband refused to come inside, saying it was moving away from them, Mrs Wessels took a photo to show her parents the storm. The photo, which has been shared widely on social media, is a masterclass in calmness.
In it, the sockless Mr Wessels, dressed casually in summer shorts and sunglasses, is seen never being upset by the disastrous column of cloud. “I took the picture just to show my mum and dad in South Africa, ‘Look, there’s a tornado,’ and now everyone is like, Why is your husband cutting the grass?” Cecilia told the Times Colonist.
When asked later about the tornado’s approach to him, Mr Wessels responded, “I was keeping an eye on it,” seeming as cool as his gardening style and attracting more than a little respect. “Alberta, Canada,” wrote one admiring Twitter user, “where men face the elements and do what needs to be done.” A writer for Esquire magazine struck a pensive note: “I can understand Theunis,” Peter Wade admitted, “sometimes when the world is raging outside, the only thing you can do is keep your small area of it.”
【1】How is Paragraph one developed?
A．By listing theories.
B．By giving examples.
C．By analyzing causes.
D．By making comparisons.
【2】Why did Cecilia take the photo?
A．To post it on social media.
B．To record her husband’s heroic act.
C．To inform her parents of the tornado.
D．To prove what is the most peaceful place.
【3】Which may make Mr. Wessels respected?
A．His way of gardening.
B．His calmness in the face of a tornado.
C．His bravery in fighting the tornado.
D．His rich knowledge about tornado.
【4】What is the main idea of the passage?
A．A man ignored a tornado in Canada.
B．There are some features of tornado in Canada.
C．A man survived surprisingly from a tornado.
D．A picture caused heated discussions.
28、If it had not been for Fan Jinshi and her team, the world cultural heritage of Dunhuang Mogao Caves in a remote Chinese desert might have long been destroyed by sand, weather or humans.
Born in Beijing and raised in Shanghai, Fan has spent half a century fighting an uphill battle to preserve the ancient Buddhist wall paintings at Dunhuang, in Northwest China’s Gansu Province. The 1,653yearold Dunhuang Mogao Caves are a huge collection of Buddhist art—more than 2,000 buddha figures and 45,000 square metres of paintings spread among 735 caves. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Archaeologist Fan was sent to Dunhuang after graduating from Peking University in 1963. While in Dunhuang, a remote village in the desert then, Fan lived in an abandoned temple. At first, she did not even dare to go out to the toilet at night. To protect the treasures from sand and dampness, Fan and other workers put doors on the caves, planted trees and started monitoring temperature and humidity in the caves. They also controlled the number of visitors.
In the late 1990s, with tourism booming nationwide since national holidays were extended, the local government planned to go public with Dunhuang Mogao Caves, but found Fan firmly in their way. “The heritage would have been destroyed if it had been listed,” she said.
Dunhuang Academy has now photographed and cataloged online all the sculptures and paintings. “Despite our efforts to minimise damage, we can’t completely stop them from being eroded. But the digital database will last.”
Fan was grateful when her husband joined her in Dunhuang in 1986 after 19 years of separation. Her two sons grew up seldom with her accompany. “I have not been a good mother or wife. With regard to my family, I’m full of guilt,” she said. Fan, 81, retired four years ago as the director of Dunhuang Academy but continues her efforts as a national political adviser.
【1】When was Fan separated from her husband?
A．In 1967.
B．In 1986.
C．In 1963.
D．In the late 1990s.
【2】What does the phrase “in their way” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A．Go to a place.
B．Reject something.
C．Give in to something.
D．Be in favour of something.
【3】What is the passage mainly about?
A．The history of Dunhuang Mogao Caves.
B．The attractions of Dunhuang Mogao Caves.
C．The appeal for the protection of Dunhuang Mogao Caves.
D．Fan’s devotion to preserving Dunhuang Mogao Caves.
【4】What kind of person do you think Fan is?
A．Devoted.
B．Considerate.
C．Kind.
D．Humorous.
29、There are 195 countries in the world today and actually none of them have purple on their national flags. Throughout history, purple was never used to represent a kingdom.
So what’s wrong with purple? It’s such a popular color today. The answer is really quite simple. Purple was just far too expensive.
The color purple has been related to royal power and wealth for centuries. Queen Elizabeth I didn’t allow anyone except close members of the royal family to wear it. Purple’s unique position comes from the rarity and high cost of the dye used to produce it. The dye was from a small sea snail that was only found in the Tyre area of the Mediterranean. Over 10,000 snails were needed to create just one gram of Tyrian purple; not to mention lots of work went into producing the dye, which made purple dye so expensive even for some royal families. Third century Roman Emperor Aurelio famously wouldn’t allow his wife to buy a scarf made from purple silk because it cost three times its weight in gold. A single pound of dye cost three pounds of gold, which equals 56,000 dollars today. Therefore, even the richest countries couldn’t spend that much having purple on their flags.
In 1856, 18-year-old English chemist William Henry Perkin by accident created a man-made purple dye while attempting to produce an anti-malaria drug. He noticed that it could be used to dye cloth. He patented the dye and mass-produced it. Therefore everybody could afford it.
Till now, a handful of new national flags have been designed and a few of them have chosen to use purple.
【1】Why was color purple expensive in the past?
A．Because only royal families were allowed to wear purple.
B．Because it took a long time to get purple dye from snails.
C．Because purple was worth as much as its weight in gold.
D．Because purple dye used to be uncommon and hard to produce.
【2】What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A．The anti-malaria drug.
B．Snails.
C．The man-made purple dye.
D．Tyrian purple.
【3】What can we infer from the passage ?
A．A few new national flags have chosen to use purple.
B．William Henry Perkin got rich by producing the purple dye.
C．Royal families stop using purple because it’s not expensive.
D．A single pound of dye cost three pounds of gold.
【4】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A．No Purple Flags?
B．Purple vs. Gold
C．How to Produce Purple Dye?
D．The Birth of Purple Color

31、用本部分所学词汇知识完成下面短文(每空一词)。

32、Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible.
In the past two hundred years, people have caused many kinds of animals to die out. People keep building houses and factories in fields and woods. As they spread over the land, they destroy animals’ homes. If animals can’t find a place to live, they die out. Sixteen kinds of Hawaiian birds have become extinct for this reason. Other animals, such as the Florida Key deer, may soon die out because they are losing their homes. Hunters have caused some animals to become extinct, too. In the last century, hunters killed all the passenger pigeons in North America and most of the buffaloes（水牛）.
Pollution is killing many animals today, too. As rivers become polluted, fish are poisoned. Many die. Birds that eat the poisoned fish can’t lay strong, healthy eggs. New birds aren’t born. So far, no animals have become extinct because of pollution. But some, such as the bald eagle （白头鹫）and the brown pelican（鹈鹕）, have become rare and may die out.
Scientists think that some animals become extinct because of changes in climate. The places where they live become hotter or cooler, drier or wetter. The food that they eat cannot grow there anymore. If the animals can’t learn to eat something else, they die. Dinosaurs （恐龙）may have died out for this reason.
