24、 London used to be "foggy" for the same reason that cities like Beijing' or Chongqing are "foggy~ today. The "fog was in fact smog, a mixture of smoke and fog. In other words, it was made by air pollution In London, some of this pollution came from factories, but much of it came from the coal that people burnt in their houses to keep warm during the winter. By the 1950s, London's smog problem had become so bad that the-government decided to do something to clean the air. A new law was made and nobody could bum coal in any British city. Within a few years, the air became much cleaner. There were no more “pea-soupers”. .
Many Chinese cities now face the same sort of' problem with air pollution that . London faced 40 0r 50 years ago.

25、Many people often spend hours watching videos on their phones before sleep, with the lights off. However, do you know that using your phone in the dark is not a very good idea? The screen of your phone sends out blue light, which is quite harmful to your eyes. It can also be hard for you to go asleep.
What is blue light? Blue light is everywhere. It is sent out both by artificial (人造的) light and by our biggest light— the sun! Blue light is the part of visible light which has the second shortest wavelength. Light with shorter wavelengths have greater power. The strong energy of blue light allows it to pass easily through the cornea (角膜) of our eyes. Therefore, blue light is quite harmful to our eyes.
However, blue light isn’t all that bad. After all, it is a part of sunlight. In fact, it can help to improve our sleep. The problem, however, lies in the bright screen lights we stare at each night. In other words, the problem isn’t exactly the exposure (暴露) to blue light, but the timing of our exposure to it.
Some scientists studied the difference between reading a paper book and an e-book before bedtime. They found that it took longer for people who used an e-reader to fall asleep. These people were also less smart in the following morning.
So, to protect the quality of your sleep, avoid screens an hour or two before your bedtime. If you must use your phone before going to bed, keep a night lamp on.
【1】 doesn’t send out blue light.
A.The sun
B.The moon
C.The mobile phone
D.The LED light
【2】Blue light is harmful to your eyes because .
A.the light is too weak
B.it makes you hard to sleep
C.it has the longest waves
D.it can go through your eye cornea easily
【3】What does the third paragraph mean?
A.Blue light affects our lives.
B.Blue light can improve our sleep.
C.Don’t use your phone or watch TV at night.
D.Don’t spend too much time on the bright screen.
【4】What does the underlined word “stare” mean in Paragraph 3?
A.阅读
B.打开
C.盯着
D.开始
【5】What can we learn from the passage?
A.Don’t use your e-reader any more.
B.Blue light is sure to affect our health.
C.You’d better use your phone before going to bed.
D.We should know about blue light and learn how to use it.

There is a festival in China that has three names. It’s known as the Chongyang Festival. Also, it is called the Double Ninth Festival because it falls on the ninth day of the ninth month of the Chinese lunar calendar(阴历). Finally it has been Senior’s Day(老人节) since1989. This year, it will fall on Oct 25.
There are many traditions for this festival. In the past, people climbed mountains, drank chrysanthemum(菊花) wine, and wore a plant called zhuyu to celebrate it. Climbing mountains in autumn brings people close to nature and it’s good for health. Both chrysanthemum and zhuyu are also clean plants and they can clean houses and make people healthy.
In China, nine has the similar pronunciation with the word “forever”, meaning long life. So the Chinese government set the day as the Senior’s Day in 1989—a day to respect the old. Many companies and communities organize autumn trips for old people. Young people bring elders to the countryside to enjoy nature. They also give them gifts.

28、 About every four years, new astronauts are accepted, it is that time again! As someone with such experience, I want to share some ideas with those who are trying to apply (申请) for this job.
【1】 you don’t want to lose the chance to be an astronaut, you must have already been at the top of your field. But once you are chosen, you will work in a very different environment. You will do things that you have never done 【2】. So, it is really important to be good at dealing with new situations.
Make sure your family and friends strongly support (支持) your dream, because you will be away from home for a long time. But don’t 【3】 and we will be here for you. In the astronaut office, we don’t just work together—we live together. So, it is important that we can trust each other and face the difficulties together.
It is really not 【4】 to be a real astronaut at last. In 2016, more than 18,300 people applied, but only 11 new astronauts graduated (毕业). Maybe 【5】 is perfect for everything but he still can’t succeed at last. However, if you do not apply, you will never be chosen. If you are not successful this time, don’t give up and 【6】 again. It takes most of us a few times to make it.

I was going to Marblehead with my sailboat team. The team was racing down the highway at 85 mph _______ we realized we were hungry. Luckily, we saw a rest area ahead. I had a brand-new $20 bill. I was so excited because I had never had that kind of cash before. But spending it on food seemed like throwing it away. We all rushed into the pizza line. _______ I got a pizza and a drink, and walked to my table. About halfway through the meal, I ______ I had not actually handed any money to the cashier. I had just walked out, and nobody had noticed. I felt terrible.
My conscience (良心) opened its mouth and swallowed me in one big bite. I couldn’t get over it. I just couldn’t go back to the cashier and _______ for my stolen pizza. I was so upset that I _______ to give myself the pleasure of an ice cream in ______ that someone would say, “Hey, Jeff, why not you use the change from the pizza instead of that nice, new $20 bill?” I was not so proud of my cash now.
