24、A few weeks ago, I went into Chase's class for help. I e-mailed Chase's teacher one evening and said, "My son keeps telling me that the thing you're sending home is math -- but I'm not sure I believe him. Help, please." She e-mailed right back and said, "No problem! I can help Chase after school anytime." And I said, "No, not him. Me. He gets it. Help me."
And that’s why I stayed with Chase’s math teacher. We talked about teaching children. We agreed that subjects like math and reading are not the most important things that are learned in a classroom. We also talked about something else —— kindness and bravery.
And then she told me this.
Every Friday afternoon Chase's teacher asks her students to take out a piece of paper and write down the names of four children with whom they'd like to sit the following week. She also asks the students to nominate(推荐) one student who they think is the most popular student that week. They needn’t write down their names on the paper.
After the students go home, she takes out those pieces of paper, and studies them.
In fact, Chase's teacher is not looking for a new seating chart or "popular students." She is looking for lonely children. She's looking for the ones who are unwilling to connect with others. She is discovering whose gifts are not noticed by their classmates. Then she gets to know who needs help.
After watching Columbine the wise woman realized that all violence(暴力) comes from loneliness. So she decided to start fighting violence early and often, and what she is doing is SAVING LIVES.
And she finds the lonely kids through those lists and tries to help them. It's math to her. All is love – even math.
【1】____ wants to get help according to the first paragraph of the passage?
A. Chase B. Chase’s teacher
C. Chase’s parent D. the popular student
【2】Why does Chase’s teacher ask her students to write down some names on paper?
A. Because She is looking for the popular student.
B. Because she is looking for a new seating chart.
C. Because she wants to help her students learn math.
D. Because she wants to find the lonely children.
【3】Which of the following is the correct order?
a. The students write down some names
b. The students take out paper
c. Chase’s teacher helps the lonely kids
d. Chase’s teacher studies the lists
e. Chase’s teacher finds who needs help
A. badce B. badec C. abdce D. adbec
【4】The best title should be ______?
A. Teaching math
B. Loneliness
C. Looking for the lonely

26、I heard the following curious story from a railway acquaintance (相识的人). He was a gentleman of more than seventy years of age, and his good face and sincere manner put the stamp of truth on everything he said.
“You know, in Siam the royal white elephant is very important. It is sacred to kings, and only kings can have a white elephant. And white elephants are more important than the king.”
Very well…five years ago…
After a misunderstanding between the countries, the King of Siam decides to send the Queen of England a present. This present must be a royal one. And what present can be as royal as a white elephant? It is my job to deliver the present to her Majesty the Queen. I travel with my servants, and the officers and helpers of the elephant, in a ship. Soon we arrive in New York harbour and I find a place for my royal elephant to stay in Jersey City. The elephant is not well and we must stay in New York until the doctors say he is better and can travel again.
_________________________________. I get a phone call in the middle of the night: the white elephant is stone! For some moments I feel helpless. Then I become calmer. There is only one thing I can do. I hurry to New York City and ask the first policeman that I meet to bring me to the headquarters (总部) of the police force. I am fortunate. The chief of the force, the well-known Inspector Blunt, is there. I tell him everything. He does not seem at all surprised. He asks me to sit down and says calmly, “Let me think for a moment, please.”
Then he sits down at his office table and leans his head on his hand. Some people are working at the other end of the room. For the next six or seven minutes the only sound I can hear is the sound of their pens. The inspector sits quietly, thinking. Finally he raises his head, and I can see from his face that he has a plan.

27、 It's no secret that laughter works wonders for us. And much research has been carried out, which shows that laughter is good for our general health and well-being. It has been found to release endorphins (释放安多芬), our bodies’ natural “feel-good” chemicals, into our blood. But as we grow older, we are more likely to find fewer things funny. A child will laugh on average 300 times a day. By the time we reach adulthood, his number is around 20. But what’s behind this? One theory suggests that it’s not a problem of losing our sense of humor but rather, as we grow older, we take things a bit more seriously.
Laughter is very much something we do with others. Studies have shown that we are 30 times more likely to find something funny when we are with others than when we are by ourselves. But to laugh with others, we do need to feel a connection to them. We need to feel comfortable in their company. That's why it can be difficult to laugh with strangers. Laughter is also very contagious and one person's laugh can spread quickly through out a group of people. But often what makes us join in is the fear of standing out and being different. We laugh, even if we don't' really get the joke, specially in groups controlled by a powerful person. When the head teacher ells a joke, for example, you laugh, even though later you might wonder if the joke was really that funny at all.
There are many different reasons why we laugh. Here are three widely accepted theories:
The Incongruity Theory: It's often the unexpected that makes us laugh. When things that we are familiar with suddenly take a turn into the unknown, our expectations are challenged and that often results in laughter.
The Superiority Theory: We often find the mistakes and misfortunes of others funny. This would explain the popularity of online videos showing pranks (恶作剧).
The Relief Theory: Laugh offers light relief. It explains why there are so many jokes about the darker things in life. By being able to laugh at them, we are able to face them more easily.
【1】According to the theory in Paragraph 1, why do we laugh less as we grow older?
A.There are fewer funny things. B.We take things more seriously.
C.Our body releases less endorphins. D.We gradually lose our sense of humor.
【2】What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A.More funny things happen when we are with others.
B.People feel comfortable in strangers' company.
C.We laugh sometimes because of social needs.
D.Powerful people are more likely to be funny.
【3】What does the underlined word “contagious” probably mean?
A.有感染力的 B.有区别的 C.令人害怕的 D.令人舒适的
【4】Which of the following statement is TRUE?
A.Something familiar is easy to make people laugh.
B.There are only 3 theories about the reasons why we laugh.
C.Every child laughs 300 times and an adult laughs 20 times a day.
D.The Superiority Theory can explain why people love making funny videos.
【5】What is the passage mainly about?
A.The art of laughter. B.The sign of laughter.
C.The power of laughter. D.The science of laughter.
28、 My dad is a patient, loving and giving person but his kind spirit that really touched me was one night as we were driving home after visiting my grandmother.
