24、根据短文内容,从每小题A、B、C三个选项中选出一个最佳答案。
Mobile phone use among children has become a problem for the school this year. Several children have got mobile phones as Christmas gifts, and more students will want them.
Mary Bluentt, an official, said mobile phone use is a distraction(分心的事)to students during school hours and it also gives teachers so much trouble in their classrooms. Teachers were also saying that sometimes students might use phone messages to cheat during exams.
She said some schools had tried to ban(禁止)mobile phones. Some parents felt unhappy because they couldn't get in touch with their children.
Many teachers said students should not have mobile phones at school, but if there were special or good reasons(理由), they could leave their phones at school office. They also said there were many reasons why the students shouldn't have mobile phones at school: they were easy to lose and were a distraction from studies.
Many people say that they understand why parents would want their children to have phones, but they think schools should let the students know when they can use their mobile phones.

25、Laughter can help us be free from pain and increase our endurance(忍耐力). A study at 2011 Oxford University showed that telling a joke to a friend can help us do more exercise at the gym(健身房) or go farther on our daily walk.
Joking around is also good for our social life. Compared with staying alone, a person is more likely to laugh when he is staying with other people. When someone starts laughing, everyone else laughs too, even if they’re not sure why he is laughing.
Sophie Scott, a British scientist, believes that when we laugh, we are making and keeping social connections. They are very important for our health, because keeping connections with people around can make us healthier and live longer. Those who feel more connected to others have less depression(抑郁), and are better at understanding others.
Dr. Caspar Addyman, psychologist(心理学家) at the University of London, said babies naturally understand the importance of sharing laughter. “ Babies can make you laugh and you can make them laugh” he said. “It’s all about connection.” Laughter means that we are part of a group and we like them.
So, spending time with people we care about is the quickest and easiest way to reduce stress and improve our health condition. It’s pretty fun, too.
【1】What can telling a joke help us to do?
A.It can help us laugh a rather long time.

26、It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don't. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn't accepted by all people.
Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don't need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and maths need not be taught in detail, either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.
Education is well-rounded (全面的) and it is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and take an interest in the world.
I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.
【1】 People with little education usually_______.
A. spend a long time in school
B. have a good chance to get a job
C. spend the best years to choose jobs
D. have fewer chances to get a good job
【2】The earliest education was probably to_______.
A. make a man lead a better life
B. teach a man to write and read
C. make people get a way of living
D. teach people to read good books
【3】 It is expected that educated people will be able to_______.
A. accept education as a way of living
B. take an interest in the whole world
C. develop their abilities to make plays
D. learn subjects like language and math
【4】 The passage mainly tells us that_______.
A. education should make a man improve
B. people can get education in a short time
C. people should be able to get good paying jobs
D. all subjects are so important for a way of living
27、Geoffrey Payne talks for the first time about the night his wife was killed. The judge thought it was he who killed his wife. Now he wrote to a magazine from the prison (监狱) about what happened on the night of 13 October 1999.
I had to stay late at the hospital that night to do an operation. I finally left at about 11 p. m. I drove home slowly because the weather was terrible—the wind was blowing and it was raining heavily, I was turning into our road when a man suddenly ran in front of my car. I almost hit him but I stopped just in time. I was frightened and the man looked frightened too. I got out of the car but he ran away before I could ask if he was all right. It was very strange.
When I got home, the lights were on but it was very quiet. I called to my wife but there was no answer. Then I remembered that she was out at a concert.
I was still very upset about what happened on the road, so I made myself a drink. Then I went upstairs to have a bath. I saw that the window in the bedroom was open. This was strange because my wife always locked the doors and windows before she went out. She was afraid of burglars. When I went to close it, I found Ellen. She was lying on the floor. There was blood everywhere. I rushed over and felt for her pulse but she was dead. I sat on the floor beside her body and was too frightened to do anything.
The next thing I knew, the sky was getting light. I can't remember a thing about that night. In the morning I phoned the police. They arrived about half an hour after I phoned them. But it seemed like hours. During that time I tried hard to remember anything I could about the night before. I couldn't stop thinking about the man in the road. What was he doing at that time of night in our quiet neighbourhood? Why did he look so frightened"! Why did he run away?
【1】 Geoffrey Payne was a .
A. doctor B. policeman
C. judge D. taxi driver
【2】 After he found Ellen dead, Payne .
A. called the police at once
B. called out for help
C. tried to find out who killed his wife
D. sat beside his wife's body without knowing what to do
【3】 Which of the following is NOT TRUE?
A. Payne called the police the next morning.
B. Payne could remember clearly what had happened.
C. The policemen arrived thirty minutes after Payne's call.
D. Payne wondered what the man was doing in his neighbourhood that night,
【4】In this passage Payne tried to .

28、Suppose you find a bright yellow bike on a street corner in the city. You hop on(跨上)it and r【1】 away. But wait—isn’t this stealing? No, it isn’t. No one shouts, “Stop! Thief!” That is b【2】 this free ride is just fine with the city.
You can find hundreds of free yellow bikes in some US cities. The idea began in Portland, Oregon, in 1994. People saw a need for free transportation, and they wanted to help c【3】 pollution. So, to get citizens(市民) o【4】 of their cars and onto pollution-free bikes, they
s【5】 the Yellow Bike Project.
The public bikes are painted bright yellow and placed all o【6】 the city. People can hop on the yellow bike and ride to run errands(短程差事), to work o【7】 to school. Then, they leave the bike for the n【8】 rider. There have been times when bikes have been stolen, but most people f【9】 the rules, because they think it is not wise to steal the bike that’s already free.
Portland’s i【10】 was quickly loved by a lot of people. Within two years of its starts, similar programs were set up in cities in six other states.
