24、Americans think a great deal about time. From childhood they learn to value(珍惜)time. As children, they are taught to be on time to go to school, to do work and to do everything. When they are having a good time, they say that time flies. When a person is dying, they say he is living on borrowed time. Time is money. Time is knowledge. Time is everything in America. A working America has to work hard for 8 hours a day or 40 hours a week. This is the working time. In his free time, he also works hard for more money. Even Saturday and Sunday are filled with(充满)activities. In the street you can hardly see a man who walks slowly. They walk very fast. In fact, they are running. They love time because time brings them money, comforts and progress. But sometimes they also hate time, for they feel they have become servants(仆人)of the clock.

25、Some people think music isn’t funny at all. About 4% of the population is what scientists call “amusic”. People who are amusics are born without the ability to enjoy musical notes. Amusic people often cannot tell the differences between two songs.
As a result, songs sound like noise to an amusic. Many amusics compare the sound of music to pieces of metal hitting each other. Life can be hard for amusics. In fact, most people cannot understand what it feels like to be an amusic. Just going to a restaurant or a shopping center can be uncomfortable or even painful. That is why many amusics have to stay away from places where there is music. However, this can result in social loneliness. “I used to hate parties,” says Margaret, a seventy-year-old woman who only recently discovered that she was an amusic. By studying people like Margaret, scientists are finally learning how to identify(辨别)this unusual condition.
Scientists say that the brains of amusics are different from those who can enjoy music. The difference is complex(复杂 的), and it is not connected with poor hearing. Amusics can understand other non-musical sounds well. They also have no problems understanding common speech. Scientists compare amusics to people who just can’t see certain colors.
Many amusics are happy when their condition is finally diagnosed(诊断). For years, Margaret felt embarrassed about her problem. Now she knows that she is not alone. That makes it easier for her to explain. “When people invite me to a concert, I just say ‘No, thanks. I’m an amusic.’” says Margaret.
【1】Amusics are the people who ________.
A.like music

C.don’t like music

26、According to a new survey, students’ safety has become a big problem. Nearly 50% of the students say they are worried about robbery (抢劫) on the way to and from school. Now in main big cities in China, some schools have taught an unusual lesson: self-protection. Students like this lesson because there are no exams or boring things. And they can learn how to save lives and know how to stop danger before it really happens. A teacher named Chen Haoyu gives young students advice on how to deal with danger.
If you are robbed, please keep calm. If you cannot cry for help or run away, give the robber your money. Try to remember what the robber looks like and tell the police later.
If a car hits you, you should remember the car number. If it is a bicycle, try to call your parents before you let the rider go. This is because you don’t know how seriously you are hurt.
If it is raining hard and there is lighting, don’t stay in high places and stay away from tall trees.
When there is a fire, get away as fast as you can. Put wet things on your body and try to find an exit. Do not use the lift.
If you see that someone is drowning (溺水) but you can’t swim, don’t get into the water. Cry out for help.
Remember that danger is never as far away as you think. Take care of yourself at all times!
【1】Why do students like the self-protection lesson?
A.Because it’s unusual.
B.Because it’s important.
