26、 Once upon a time, there was a farmer. He didn't have a lot of money, so he used an old horse to plow(耕)his field instead of a tractor(拖拉机).
One afternoon, while working in the field, the horse died. Everyone in the village said, "Oh, what a terrible thing!" The farmer just said, "We'll see." He was such a good person that the villagers got together and bought him a new horse as a gift.
Then many people said, "What a lucky man!" And the farmer replied, "We'll see."
A few days later, the new horse jumped over the wall and ran away. Everyone in the village said, "What a poor man!"
The farmer smiled and said. "We'll see." But finally, the horse found his way home, and everyone said, "What a fortunate man!" The farmer said, "We'll see."
Later in the year, the farmer's young boy went out, riding on the horse. He fell off the horse and broke his leg. Everyone in the village said, "What a poor boy!" The farmer said, "We'll see."
Two days later, the army came into the village to ask people to be soldiers. When they saw that the farmer's son had a broken leg, they decided not to ask him to join the army.

27、Mankind will soon be able to discover the far side of the moon as the Chang'e 4 probe(探测器), the first one to touch down on the moon's far side, lifted off at 2:23 am on December 8, 2018.
Affected by Earth, the same side of the moon always faces Earth. The other side, most of which is never seen from Earth, is the far side of the moon. However, it is not a "dark side" of the moon because the far side is as lighted by the sun as the "near side" facing us. Though the far side has been taken pictures of, no probe had ever made a soft-landing on it so scientists around the world expect to be able to make close observations and researches of it.
The program's scientific tasks are to perform special observations, to explore condition of the landing site, and to carry out lunar environmental research. The tasks will enable scientists to discover what they haven't known about the moon. They also can make clearer observations into deep space through Chang'e 4.
Chang'e 4 has been designed to fit the moon surface and communication conditions on the far side of the moon. In addition to Chinese scientific equipment, the Chang'e 4 tasks also include scientific devices(装置) developed by the Netherlands, Sweden, Germany and Saudi Arabia.
In May, China sent off a satellite, whose task is sending signals(信号) between Chang'e 4 and ground control.
The next step in China's lunar exploration timetable, the Chang'e 5 task, is scheduled for 2019 and will collect samples and then bring them back to Earth.
【1】According to the passage, Chang'e 4 will be the first .
A.to take photos of the moon.
B.to soft-land on the moon.
C.to soft-land on the far side of the moon.
D.to take photos of the far side of the moon.
【2】The far side of the moon is the side that .
A.on the earth we can see little of.
B.is dark all the year round.
C.scientists have known nothing about.
D.faces the earth all the time.
【3】What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A.What Chang'e 4 is made up of.
B.What scientists want Chang'e 4 to do.
C.How Chang'e 4 communicates with ground control.
D.How scientists make lunar environmental research.
【4】From the passage we can know .
A.Chang'e 4 can communicate with ground control directly.
B.Chang'e 4 will bring samples back to Earth in 2019.
C.scientists can make clearer observations without Chang'e 4.
D.there is experiment equipment for foreign countries on Chang'e 4.
28、Both men and women are living longer these days in industrialized countries. 【1】 In general, they can expect to live six or seven years more than men. One reason for this is biological.
One important biological factor that helps women live longer is the difference in hormones between men and women. 【2】 Between the ages of about 12 and 50, women produce hormones that are involved in fertility(生育能力). These hormones also have a positive effect on the heart and blood flow. In fact, women are less likely to have high blood pressure or to die from heart attacks.
【3】They help the body defend itself against some kinds of infections. This means that women generally ger sick less often and less seriously than men. The common cold is a good example: women, on average, get fewer colds than men.【4】Scientists are still not exactly sure how influence aging, but they believe that they do. Some think that a woman’s body cells have a tendency(向) to age more slowly than a man’s. Others think that a man’s body cells have a tendency to age more quickly.【5】
A.However, women, on average, live longer.
B.The biological factor plays an important part.
C.Women are also helped by their female genes.
D.The female hormones also protect the body in another way.
E.Recent research seems to support both of these possibilities.
F.Therefore, women are more healthy than men and can live a better life.
G.Hormones are chemicals which are produced by the body to control carious body functions.
29、 As more and more people speak the global languages of English, Chinese, Spanish, and Arabic, other languages are rapidly disappearing. In fact, half of the 6,000 - 7,000 language spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational, Scientific, an Cultural Organization (UNESCO).
In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations - UNESCO and National Geographic among them -- have for many years been documenting dying languages an the cultures they reflect.
Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Center, Yale University,who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition. His recently published book, A grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, working, and raising a family in a village in Nepal.
Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalaya reaches of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.
At the University of Cambridge, Turin discovered a wealth of important materials -- including photographs, films, tape recordings, and field notes -- which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.
Now, through the two organizations that he has rounded -- the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project -- Turin has started a campaign t make such documents, found in libraries and stores around the world, available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected. Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet, Turin notes, the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.
【1】Many scholars are making efforts to _______.
A.promote global languages
B.rescue disappearing languages
C.search for language communities
D.set up language research organizations
【2】What does “that tradition” in Paragraph 3 refer to ?
A.Having full records of the languages.
B.Writing books on language teaching.
C.Telling stories about language users.
D.Living with the native speakers.
【3】What is Turin’s book based on?
A.The cultural studies in India. B.The documents available at Yale.
C.His language research in Bhutan. D.His personal experience in Nepal.
【4】Which of the following best describes Turin’s work?
A.Write and donate. B.Record and reward.
C.Collect, protect and reconnect. D.experiment and report
