24、How would we travel without maps? It would be a bit adventurous (冒险的) to set off from Oxford University to go to London Bridge if there wasn't a map of the London Underground at each station. In fact, a lot of the early map-makers were adventurers and explorers, especially in the 15th and 16th centuries.
So what did people do before there were maps? Well, it was quite easy to use natural signs like mountains and rivers if you were travelling on foot or riding a horse. People took small boats down rivers and followed coastlines. And it was much more logical (合理的) to use time, not distance, to measure (计量) journeys: the next village is a three-hour ride, for example.
In fact, in the earliest maps, people didn't draw landmarks. They drew the stars. It was very easy to see the night sky and use it for navigation (航行). The sky was a lot clearer before the light pollution from cities that we have today. When towns and cities were built, people drew road maps which gave correct distances and directions.
The London Underground was opened in 1863 and it also used a road map style. But a man called Henry Beck realized that travelling by train wasn't the same as driving your car across London. Passengers only needed to know which stations to change at. His new design (设计) for the Underground map wasn't very popular with the train companies at first. But the passengers loved it and in 1933, 700,000 copies were printed.
These days, of course, you can ride a bike, drive a car or go through a forest and know where you are exactly, using a GPS. It's really difficult to get lost!
【1】【1】What was drawn in the earliest maps?
A. Stars.
B. Landmarks.
C. Cities and towns,
D. Mountains and rivers.
【2】【2】When did road maps come out?
A. Around 15th and 16th centuries.
B. When people began to travel by train.
C. When people began to travel by sea.
D. When cities and towns appeared.
【3】【3】Which of the following is true?
A. A GPS helped people to travel long time ago.
B. Ancient people could travel on a horse without maps.
C. The sky was polluted by light before cities were built.
D. Henry Beck's map wasn't popular with the passengers.
【4】【4】What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Maps have a long history.
B. We never get lost these days.
C. We can't travel without maps.
D. Henry Beck designed a new map.
25、Years ago, we were asked to create a newspaper in groups about world culture in our history class.
We first wrote the names of three friends we wanted in our group. Unluckily, Mrs. Bartlett, our teacher, didn’t put me in the group with any of my friends. Instead, I was with Mauro, who never spoke English, Juliette, who always wore thick glasses and Rachel, who wore strange clothes. I had never talked to them. Oh, how badly I wanted to be with my friends!
I was so sad that I walked up to Mrs. Bartlett. “I know what you want, Karina,” she gently patted me on my shoulder, “but your group needs a leader. I need you to help them get a passing grade on this project. Only you can make it.”
I was shocked.
“Will you help them?” she asked.
“Yes.” I replied. I couldn’t believe it came out of my mouth, but it did. I bravely walked to my group and started our project. We had different tasks according to our interests. Little by little, I felt myself enjoying their company (陪伴). I realized that they were not strange; they were just people that no one cared enough for—except Mrs. Bartlett. Her thoughtfulness brought out the best in the four of us.
I learned something that week. I was given a chance to see other people in a new light. I learned that who we are is more important than what we are or seem to be.
Mrs. Bartlett gave us an A on that project, but we thought we should have handed it right back, for she was the one who truly deserved it.

26、Andrew Engel was puzzled. He was sitting in class, but had no idea what the other students were talking about. He had done his homework, paid attention to lectures, and taken notes, but nothing was familiar. “Everyone is so much cleverer than I am,” he thought. It was a strange feeling, as he was always a good student in high school.
He felt even more puzzled a few days later. He got lost on his way to his favorite cinema. What’s worse, he began having trouble finding the right words when speaking. He asked, “What’s for dinner, Mom?” after he had just eaten. Poor Andrew, he was only 15!
His parents were worried and took Andrew to see a doctor. A brain scan(扫描) made it clear: Andrew had a malignant brain tumor (恶性脑肿瘤). It was pressing on the part of the brain that makes a new memory. He should be operated on as soon as possible. Andrew was scared!
Doctors removed the tumor, but Andrew’s memory was still poor. He was told he would probably never go back to school. Andrew was eager to enter a university, but it seemed that his dream wouldn’t come true.
“Even though they told me this, I knew I wanted to go back to school,” Andrew said. “I wanted to get my memory back.”
Andrew began by auditing(旁听) an English class at a nearby school. In class, he took notes carefully and read his notes several times a day, then typed them again and again. He studied twelve hours a day, seven days a week. He worked ten times harder than other students. In 2007, at age 29, he graduated from a local university. Six months later, Andrew found a job.

27、Do you know Yao Beina?
Not only a popular singer was Yao Beina, but also she was an energetic and warm-hearted angel. She had her corneas (眼角膜) donated to two men who needed them, which helped them see the world clearly again.
Yao was born in a music family on Sept. 26, 1981 in Wuhan. Her father, Yao Feng, was the former chairman of the Shenzhen Association of Musicians and now serves as the vice chairman of Guangdong Association of Musicians. Under the influence of her family, she had taken up piano since the age of 4, and she sang her first song on the stage when she was 9 years old. Yao did quite well in singing, so she took part in the thirteenth Youth Singing Competition and won the first prize.
She became well-known to the public after making a series of songs for the hit TV drama “The Legend of Zhenhuan” in 2012, and the mandarin version (中文版本) of “Let It Go” from Disney’s “Frozen”. In July 2013, she competed in The Voice of China II and finally got the second place in Na Ying’s team. She had won a lot of music awards before she was famous.
Yao Beina was unfortunate to be diagnosed (诊断) with breast cancer (乳腺癌) and had a successful operation in 2011. Since then, she has fought against the disease for about four years while keeping singing, but sadly she failed. She originally thought of donating all of her organs (器官) to save others’ lives, but failed to do it because of her serious illness.
