24、Droughts (干旱)are common in Kenya . Before ,they came every 10 years ,but now they seem to be hitting us more often and for a longer time .

We gave the droughts names :“longoza”was the drought when many animals died ; there was the drought of the “planes” because food was dropped from the air by planes; and one particularly bad drought was called “ man who dies with his money in his fist (拳头)”，because ,even if there was money , there was simply no food to buy .

I was born in 1951 in Machakos. From what my mother tells me , when I was 7, there was a serious drought . I clearly remember the terrible weather and the hunger. I can’t tell you how many times I went to bed without eating . “ I slept like that ,” is how we described it . I can’t count the number of days when “ I slept like that,” or describe the feeling of going to sleep hungry ,knowing I’d wake up and there would still be no food for breakfast.

My father would leave early in the morning carrying a little basket to ask for food on credit (赊欠). Each night he would return home around 10:00p.m. My mother would try to encourage me by telling me to keep the water in our pot boiling so that when my father arrived we could quickly cook any food he brought in the already prepared water . I would keep the fire burning and the water boiling , along with the hopes that we would eat that night. But my father would arrive frustrated and empty -handed. And I would sleep like that.

25、

I recently watched a TV program Real Sports where the presenter looked into the culture of handing out participation（参与）trophies to children. There's no doubt that today's kids live in a world of scoreless games and everyone gets a trophy. Sometimes when a league decides to award（奖励）just the winners instead of all participants, the parents buy their own trophies for the whole team!

However, when we try to protect children from losing at the early ages, are they less prepared when real competition kicks in? People who support giving trophies say they want to make each child feel special, but how does this make them feel special? Stanford University looked at this recently and found that although kids react positively to praise-they enjoy hearing that they're talented, smart and so on, they break down at the first experience of difficulty. Discouraged by their failure, they say they'd rather cheat than risk failing again.

There are also endless social-science studies showing the harmful effects of easy competition, not just on the psyche（精神）but more surprisingly on achievement. If children know they will get an award simply by showing up, what is the reason for improvement? Jean Twenge, writer of Generation Me, warns that when living rooms are filled with participation trophies, it's part of a larger cultural message:  to succeed, you just have to show up. In college, those who've grown up receiving these endless awards do the required work, but don't see the need to do it well. In the office, they still believe that attendance is all it takes to get a promotion（晋升）.

When I was a child, I earned my fair share of trophies but none of them was for just showing up. I also missed out on even more and had to watch my friends collect them while I stood by and clapped. I realized that in life, I'm going to lose more often than I win, even if I'm good at something, and I've got to get used to that to keep going.

When children make mistakes, our job should not be to turn those losses into decorated（装饰性的）victories. Instead, our job is to help kids overcome difficulties, to help them see that progress over time is more important than a certain win or loss, and to help them politely congratulate those who succeed when they fail. To do that, we need to refuse all the meaningless trophies.

【1】The writer mentions Stanford University's study to show that

A.kids should be awarded for their special talents

B.necessary protection helps kids deal with failure

C.parents should try their best to keep kids out of competition

D.overpraise is likely to reduce kids' ability to face difficulties

【2】The writer probably agrees that

A.attendance is the key to making progress

B.participation is more important than victory

C.getting awards easily stops kids from working hard

D.participation trophies give kids a sense of achievement

【3】From his childhood experience, the writer has learned that

A.it's difficult to accept friends' victories

B.it's beneficial to learn from teammates

C.it's important to face winning or losing properly

D.it's necessary to be excellent at something to succeed

【4】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A.Participation Trophies:  Do They Really Matter?

B.Participation Trophies:  Why Are They Special?

C.Participation Trophies:  How Do They Help Kids?

D.Participation Trophies:  Who Should Award Them?

27、My dear boys and girls, good morning. Today I’m going to talk to you about my understanding of learning history.

Many of you may think it is a terrible thing to study history. You may often wonder why we students should study something that has nothing to do with our own lives. If you think that way, I should say you are far from the truth.

In fact, if we study history, we can learn quite a lot about personal stories and events of people just like us. The people who came before us helped build and develop the country we are living in. Their ideas often solved many of our problems and troubles. Studying the past helps us to understand what our ancestors’ (祖先) lives were like. And it also helps us to see how their experiences have shaped our own life.

To be honest, ▲ . Some of what we study in history helps us understand the mistakes of the past. And these mistakes will help people not to do the same wrong things. People often learn from the past to have a better future.

Whether we like the subject of history or not, we must understand the importance of the events and the people who came before us. Our ancestors’ decisions have influenced our own life. Similarly, the decisions of our own generation will finally influence those who come after us. In this only way, the world is truly connected.

History is not just a study of the past. History is the study of people, places, and events that can influence the future.

Now do you still think studying history is a sad thing? Or do you have any doubt about learning history? If you have any questions, just feel free to ask.

【1】If we study history, we can learn that ________.

A．history has nothing to do with our own lives

B．our ancestors helped build and develop our country

C．our ancestors’ ideas solved all our problems and troubles

D．our ancestors’ experiences can’t shape our own life

【2】Which of the following can be put in the ▲ in Paragraph 4?

A．the mistakes of the past won’t help us

B．I don’t like the idea of learning history

C．it is not easy to learn the subject of history

D．not everything that happened in the past is good

【3】The writer wrote the passage to ________.

A．introduce some important people in history

B．develop students’ interest in learning history

C．explain different people’s understanding of history

D．show the relationship between the past and the future

28、三、短文填空。

Three years have passed since I 【1】 (enter) junior high school.And now it is time for us 【2】 (start) our new journey.I still 【3】(remember) my first day at this school.I 【4】 (be) always a shy boy in primary school.So I couldn't stop 【5】 (feel) nervous and afraid when I sat in the new classroom.I used to 【6】 (think) that no teachers would like me until I met my head teacher，Ms.Lin.She had a talk with me.I will never forget【7】 (stand) in front of her，listening to her kind and warm voice.She encouraged me a lot and made me 【8】 (fill) with confidence(自信)．Since then，I【9】 (change) so much.Now，I am no longer a shy boy.I have confidence in myself and am full of hope for the future.I 【10】 (not make) Ms. Lin down.
