24、It seems that beauty and women are twins．You are joking? No，I am not．Watch it for yourself! Ads on fashion TV screens，radio programs，magazines，newspapers，and the streets．Whether they have realized it or not, women are surrounded(包围)by a sea of fashion. They are taught to think that without beautiful clothes they will grow old and lose their charm. so who dares to neglect(忽略) dressing up at the cost of their appearance and youth?

But I do not agree with the opinion that women have to show their beauty through their appearances. The richness of their minds proves to be more beautiful and attractive than their appearances. a woman who has experienced many troubles and may be called “aunt” or“granny” can still keep up her beauty if she has such excellent qualities as knowledge，ability，a kind heart，great courage, caring for others, etc.

In addition, old and young, beautiful and ugly are relative concepts(相对的概念)．People who keep a young mind will never feel old．Interested in new things and eager to learn more，they keep up with the time. plainly-dressed women may have a type of beauty that is pure and real. Reading and learning is the best way to keep one youthful．Good books are rich soil which can feed the flower of one’s heart and appearances.

27、Think of somebody you really admire. You will probably find that their success didn’t come easily. As “Father of Hybrid Rice (杂交水稻)”, Yuan Longping got over great difficulties and spent his whole life working to reduce (减少) world hunger and helping to feed the country with the largest population.

Wu Mengchao. the “Father of Chinese Hepatobiliary Surgery” (肝胆外科), focused on saving people’s lives for nearly eighty years. He did more than 16, 000 operations (手术) during his life. Holding the knife for such a long time deformed his fingers. Wu once said, “It would be my greatest happiness if I could work at the operating table until my dying day.”

In 1969, in order to solve the problem of malaria (疟疾). Tu Youyou, a pharmacologist (药学家), took on the job as head of a research team. She and her teammates did different kinds of experiments (实验). However, the results were disappointing. Instead of giving up, they kept trying. Finally, in 1972, they made it! In 2015, at the age of 85, she received a Nobel Prize.

Thomas Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, believed that every failure was a step towards success. He once said, “If I find 10, 000 ways something won’t work, I haven’t failed. I didn’t give up, because every wrong try is another step forward.” Sometimes, their success was a surprise, even to themselves. The famous scientist Alexander Fleming said, “When I woke up just after daybreak on 28th September, 1928, I certainly didn’t plan to revolutionise (变革) all medicine by discovering the world’s first antibiotic (抗生素). But I guess that was exactly what I did.”

Some people only became successful after their deaths. Not like Pablo Picasso who became famous and very rich during his lifetime, the artist Vincent Van Gogh only sold one painting all through his life and that was to a friend. But he kept painting and he painted more than 2,000 artworks in the following ten years. Now his paintings are very popular and they sell for millions of pounds.

One thing all these people have in common is sticking to (坚持) their goals no matter what happens.

A．They succeeded in solving world problems.

B．They spent all their lives serving people.

C．They achieved a lot in the medical field.

D．They are remembered for their happiness.

B．Vincent Van Gogh painted 2, 000 artworks in his whole life

C．it took Tu Youyou’s team about 3 years to reach their goal

D．Thomas Edison tried 10,000 ways before he invented the light bulb

【4】When Alexander Fleming discovered the first antibiotic, he ________.

28、   Princess quiz time! How did Snow White survive? How did Cinderella leave her evil stepmother? How did Sleeping Beauty 【1】 (final) wake up?

A kind-hearted person always comes to save the princess, like a prince or a godmother. 【2】 (princess) cannot protect themselves.

However in 【3】 (real), women can’t put their life in the hands of a prince-like man. They need to work and even fight for their own 【4】 (happy). The traditional image of a princess is getting out of date.

Disney, a company famous for its princess movies, posted the “top 10 rules for 【5】 (be) a modern princess.” You will not find any rules relating (有联系) to 【6】 (beautiful) or looks. The rules focus ‘on loyalty, honesty and other moral values (道德观). The rules say princesses need to “believe in themselves” and “try their best” to get out of 【7】 (trouble) instead of waiting for a prince’s help.

It’s not the first time that Disney princesses have 【8】 (catch) up with society’s development. In 1950, when people’s hearts were 【9】 (break) by World War Ⅱ, Disney created Cinderella (《灰姑娘》). In 1991’s Beauty and the Beast, Belle loved reading during a time in which education was a man’s exclusive right (特权). Belle showed the 【10】 (improve) of women’s status (地位) in society.

Princesses are still very beautiful. But inner (内在的) character is the key to being a princess.

29、   When we were young, we wished everything to go quickly. We dreamed to become _______. Every morning, when sitting in the classroom, we were looking forward to hearing the bell ring in the afternoon. 40 minutes seemed like 40 hours in class. A term seemed to be three times longer than the _______.

People always say that it feels like time tends to move faster as we get older. When we get older, our life seems to be a copy of the day before and that makes time move _______.

Time is something like a pile of memories, so the fewer _______ experiences we have, the less likely we are to fill in those memories with interesting things.

The older we get, the faster time goes by. In the first few years of our lives, anything we sense or do is brand new. Many of our experiences are special, so they _________ deeply in our memories. As the years go by, we have many similar experiences instead of new ones. We have _________ the life and never want to change anything.

For example, try to remember what happened to you every day last week. The only answer is work and sleep. It will be _______ for you to remember the specific things you did on Monday, Tuesday, etc. You may even forget the wedding party of your friend's son.

What can we do about this? Maybe we need some _______ that will encourage us to try out new experiences, such as pointing out things we have hardly done, recommending dishes we have seldom taste and suggesting places we have _______ been to. Such an APP could make our lives more wonderful, encourage us to try new things, slow down the passage of time and increase our happiness. Before such an APP is invented, try to do at least one new thing every week. It's not too difficult to ________ yourself to do new things.
