24、 Long ago, there was a queen who lived in a palace. She felt bored to her advisor, “All the things around me are too boring. I need a different kind of beauty. Let everyone know that I will hold a competition for the most beautiful thing in the world. And the prize will be this crown.”
Several days later, lots of people came to the competition and showed their things. The queen was not satisfied with what she saw. The advisor suggested, “What you are looking for cannot be brought to you. You must look for it by yourself. What about a journey?”
The queen was interested in the idea, so she started immediately. As she was on top of the hill near her palace, she looked down and suddenly something cried in her heart. “Why have I never found my palace so beautiful?”
The queen spent one year travelling. She saw beauty on the farm, in the forest and even in the stars twinkling at night on her journey. But what was the most beautiful thing? She thought it over.

25、 I will never forget my experiences in the United States. I went to an American college a year ago. Yet I did not know the real American society until I was hurt in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court(法院).
After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and decided to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was surprised. He had a good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible(负有责任的) for my accident, I’d have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him. But every day I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time. The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $215. My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to refuse his help. And he made me pay him $770.
Now I had to act as my own lawyer. I told the insurance(保险)company the date I was leaving America because of my inexperience(缺少经验). Knowing that, they played for time and I left without getting a cent.
My experiences taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America money is everything. It is more important than friendship, honor or professional morality. Secondly, foreigners are still being unfairly treated. So when we talk about America, we should see both its good and bad sides.
【1】The writer’s roommate offered to help him because________.
A.he thought it was a chance to make some money
B.he felt sorry for the writer
C.he knew the doctor was a very good one
D.he wanted the writer to have a good lawyer
【2】A good lawyer is important for the writer to________.
A.be well treated by the doctor
B.get well before he leaves that country
C.talk with the person responsible for the accident
D.get money from the person responsible for the accident
【3】Both the doctor and the lawyer in this passage are very_________.
A.selfish B.friendly C.rude D.busy
【4】The underlined word “charge” in the second paragraph means_________.
A.职责 B.掌管 C.要价 D.命令
【5】What conclusion can you get from the story?
A.America is not a perfect country.
B.One must be very careful while driving a car.
C.There are more bad sides in America than good sides.
D.Going to court is something very common in America.
26、It can’t be truer that when in Rome do as the Romans do. So it’s important for you to know what you can talk with the local people in other countries.
In France
You’ll find that conversations often turn into heated discussions. You’d better give opinions only on subjects that you are knowledgeable about. There is seldom a moment of silence, except when the topic under discussion has been finished, and nothing new has been introduced.
Food, art, music and current events or history are welcome topics. The French believe in freedom, and you can criticize(批评) anyone, but not Napoleon, who is a symbol of French spirit and never use the conversation opener “What do you do?”.
In Australia
Australians are excited about discussions. Many topics may be open to discussion, such as religion and politics. The best way, however, is to wait for Australians to bring up these two subjects; be prepared to listen to what they are talking about.
Australians like to criticize themselves, but they can’t stand being criticized by others. Don’t talk big. Instead, Australians prefer to judge(判断) your abilities through your actions. People who show off their education in conversation may be laughed at.
In Switzerland
The Swiss may seem cold. Once you get close to them, however, you’ll find that they are honest, responsible people, who will respect your interests much.
They are good listeners and will remember almost everything you say to them. Sometimes they will even take notes while you speak. The Swiss are very private people, so you should avoid asking personal questions. They can be rather serious, so it is advisable to avoid making jokes on them.
【1】According to the passage, it’s better NOT to criticize ___ ___.
A. the Romans B. the French
C. the Australians D. the Swiss
【2】From the passage we know that __ ____.
A. the Swiss are not as cold as they seem to be
B. the French can’t stand the heated discussions

【3】The writer wants to tell us ____ __.

27、Shenzhou 13 manned spacecraft (载人航天飞船) went to space (太空) successfully on October 16. Three Chinese astronauts (航天员), Zhai Zhigang, Wang Yaping, Ye Guangfu were taken to space. They will stay in space for six months. It is the eighth time for Chinese to visit space after Yang Liwei went as the first Chinese 18 years ago. These special “visitors” can take fantastic photos in space, just like taking trips there. Can common people go to visit space like them? The answer is “yes”.
On September 15, Space X sent four common people into space. The four spent three days in space. Just two months ago, in July, 70-year -old British billionaire (亿万富翁) Richard Branson, and 57-year-old American billionaire Jeff Bezos, both flew into space. But some think these trips are for the super rich. With the sky-high prices, most common people should give up their space dreams. However, US flight engineer (航工程师) Bobak Ferdowsi believes the price will come down. “Maybe in 10 to 15 years, it’s a decision between ‘do I buy a new car, or do I go to space?’. ”
Anyway, even we can’t have a space trip now, we’ll be able to have a science class from space. The woman astronaut Wang Yaping will be the space teacher to give us such a lesson just as she did eight years ago. That will be great fun. We will also be able to enjoy a space movie. A Russian film team stayed on the International Space Station from Oct 5 to 16 to film the movie Challenge. It’s the first time a movie was filmed in space.
【1】When did the first Chinese go to space in manned spacecraft?

【2】Who went to space as common visitors?
A.Richard Branson.

C.Wang Yaping.
【3】Why can’t most common people have the space trip now?
A.Because it’s too dangerous.

C.Russia.
【5】Which of the sayings is true?

28、根据下面短文内容,在短文的空格处填上一个恰当的词,使短文完整、通顺。
Does speaking on the phone make you nervous?
Speaking with people on the phone is becoming less common these days. Many people prefer to use email or messaging apps when they need to communicate with someone.

If this sounds familiar (熟悉的) to you, you might be among those with telephobia—the 【2】 of speaking on the phone.
Telephobia is a form of social anxiety. People who feel perfectly comfortable in social situations may also experience telephobia. When 【3】 face to face, we have lots of facial expressions that help each other follow the conversation. This is not the case over the phone. Very often the idea of speaking on the phone makes some people so scared that they will freeze up or lose control of the conversation. 【4】, there are things that they can do to stop this fear.
One thing that those with telephobia can do 【5】 making a call is smiling. It may sound silly, but smiling can help you feel more 【6】. It won’t get rid of (消除) the anxiety altogether, but it will take the edge off (使……缓解) it.
Similarly, imagining how the call will go before you make it can also help things go more smoothly. Just run through a positive conversation in your head. That will make you feel less nervous and may help you predict any possible problems.
Well, you don’t always have to pick up the phone at once. There’s nothing wrong with calling the person back 【7】 when you feel more comfortable. So the next time your phone starts ringing, remember—speaking on the phone doesn’t have to make you nervous. The important thing is to realize your fear and take steps to deal with 【8】. Over time, you will learn that using the phone need not be a terrifying experience.
