How do you imagine the future? Will life in the future be better, worse or the same as now? What do you think of the future?
People think that life will probably be very different in 2050. First of all, planes will be very small, so flying will be very cheap. Everyone will have a small car. Fuel(燃料) will be new and clean but expensive. We will see robots everywhere. And space planes will take us around the world in two hours. Houses will be warm in winter and cool in summer, so they will be very comfortable. We’ll use the sunshine to heat our houses. Computers will be very small, so they’ll be very light. People will do many things on the Internet.
At that time, water will become one of our most serious problems. In many places, farmers will be in great need of water to grow fruit and vegetables.
By 2050, we will be able to help blind people see again or deaf people hear again. At that time, our life will become better and better.

25、
The boat arrived at a small town, and Legree and his slaves(奴隶) got off. Tom and the other men walked all the way to the plantation.
They stopped in front of a house. It was large, but it looked empty and uncomfortable, the glass of some windows were broken and there were bits of wood and boxes on the ground. Two slaves, Sambo and Quimbo, were Legree’s two main helpers on the plantation, and they arrived with dogs.
“Don’t try to ran away,”said Legree to Tom and the others, “or the dogs will follow you.”
“Sambo,” said Legree, “take these new slaves down to the cabins.”
The slaves followed Sambo to the cabins. They were near the plantation and far from the house. Tom’s heart sank when he saw them. Each one had only one room, without any furniture.
“Go into this one,”said Sambo. “They will all be crowded later.”
Later in the evening the other slaves came back from the plantation, tired, hungry and dirty. They didn’t even look at the new ones. They had to wait in line for their turn to cook a very poor meal. Then they all went to sleep on the floor in the cabins.
Every day, from early in the morning until late in the evening, under the hot sun, the slaves picked cotton. When they finished, Legree weighed it, and there was whipping(鞭打)for the slaves who didn’t pick enough cotton. Tom learnt to pick cotton quickly.

26、If someone asks you to choose a great living thing, mushrooms probably won’t be your first answer. However, scientists recently have discovered that mushrooms can do more than you think.
First of all, they can control the weather. Scientists have found that mushrooms have the unique (独特的) ability to create rain. This happens because of the way they release their spores (孢子). As water collects on the surface of a mushroom, it gets stuck in these spores. Later, when the spores are set free, they get together with dust in the air to create clouds and rain.
Another fascinating thing about mushrooms is just how many kinds of them there are. It’s believed that there may be more than five million different kinds of mushrooms. What’s more, scientists believe that they’ve only found 10% of them.
Lastly, mushrooms could have an influence on the environment. We all know that plants can take in CO₂. However, when they die, CO₂ goes back into the air again. Mushrooms, on the other hand, keep this kind of greenhouse gas underground, which helps keep the air and environment clean. It shows that no matter how small mushrooms are, they can do more than we can see.
【1】According to the passage, what special ability do only mushrooms have?
A.They can create rain.
B.They can collect dust.
C.They can give off CO₂.
D.They can kill animals.
【2】The underlined word “release” has the same meaning with ________.
A.get stuck
B.set free
C.get together
D.take in
【3】Which of the following about mushrooms is NOT true according to the passage?
A.They release spores into the air.
B.They can keep CO₂ underground.
C.They have an effect on the weather.
D.There are only a few kinds of mushrooms.
【4】Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?
A.All mushrooms can be safely eaten.
B.Mushrooms have a lot of interesting qualities (特点).
C.Only mushrooms have the ability to protect the environment.
D.Scientists do not plan to discover more about mushrooms.
【5】What’s the best title for the passage?
A.How to Grow the Best Crops
B.How Mushrooms Grow and Spread
C.Humans’ Plans to Control the Weather
D.Mushrooms: Nature’s Magic Box of Tricks
27、What makes people gain weight? This seems like a simple enough question to answer. If we eat a lot and don’t do enough exercise, we will become fat. However, the science behind weight problems is more complicated than we think.
As we know, what we eat greatly affects our weight. It is widely accepted that people have 100% control over what they eat and how much they eat. This, however, is only partly true. People form habits around food at a young age. You may rarely touch vegetables while overeating fried chicken. Meanwhile, the serving size and the background music can both affect how much we eat.
Our bodies themselves can decide whether we are more likely to gain weight or lose weight. Scientists have found that the more delicious the food is, the more excited our brains get. If we often have delicious food, over time, our brains will change. Compared to people of normal weight, fat people feel more excited when they see delicious food.
Now you know why fat people often have a tough time losing weight. They may have tried very hard. but their bodies are working against their will.
Also, our bodies use a variety of hormones (激素) to tell our brains whether they are hungry or full. Ghrelin, for example, tells the brain that the body wants food. Leptin, meanwhile, tells the brain that it’s time to stop eating. Ghrelin and leptin help us to maintain a healthy weight. But sometimes, they may work improperly. As we get fatter, the levels of leptin in our bodies rise. Our brains are told not to eat all the time. In the end, they would no longer trust Leptin and would stop responding to its “warnings”. When we start to lose weight, Leptin levels drop. Our brains think we are hungry and make us find food in our fridges.
【1】The following can affect what or how much we eat EXCEPT ______.
A.eating habits
B.serving size
C.background music
D.the colour of food
【2】Which is the best for the blank in the picture?
A.Ghrelin maintains a healthy weight.
B.Hunger causes Ghrelin levels to rise.
C.Ghrelin works against a person’s will.
D.Brain responds lo Ghrelin’s “warning”.
【3】The underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refers to ______.
A.our bodies
B.our brains
C.the warmings
D.the levels
【4】In which section of the newspaper would you probably read this article?
A.Health.
B.Education.
C.Environment.
D.Fashion.
