24、Choose the best answer (根据以下内容,选择最恰当的答案)
Gary and Gavin were twin brothers who worked in a department store owned by their father. After the father had passed away, they took over the store. Everything went well until the day a 100-dollar bill disappeared. Gary had left the bill on the cash register(收银机). But when he returned, the money was gone.
Gary then asked his brother Gavin, “Did you see that one-hundred-dollar bill on the cash register?” Gavin said that he had not. But Gary did not let it go and kept questioning. “100-dollar bills can’t get up and walk away by themselves! Surely you must have seen it.” There was complaint in Gary’s voice. Tempers began to rise and resentment(愤恨)grew. “I said I didn’t see it!” Gavin replied angrily.
The argument divided the young men and they could no longer work together. Later, a wall was built in the center of the store. For twenty years, resentment never ended.
One day, a strange man came to the store. He walked in and asked Gary, “How long have you been here?” Gary replied that he’d been there all his life. “Then you are the person I’m looking for, since I must confess something to you,” the man said. “Twenty years ago, I was totally broken and hungry. I entered this store from the back door and saw a 100-dollar bill on the cash register. And I took it. All these years I haven’t been able to forget that. I had to come back and ask for your forgiveness.”
The stranger felt very surprised when seeing tears well up in the eyes of the middle-aged man in front of him. “Would you please go next door and tell the same story to the man in the store?” Gary asked. Then something surprised the stranger even more -- after hearing his story, the two middle-aged men hugged each other and cried out in front of the wall of the store.
After twenty years, the wall of resentment that set them away from each other finally came down.

25、On a usual day, Miranda jumped out of bed even before the alarm clock could ring. She did not mind getting up early. She loved morning because she could complete her two-mile run before most of her family members got up. She ran every morning in order that she would realize her dream of being the best runner in the school. However, this morning was different. She would go and find out whether the pain in her leg was something that could be easily treated or would stop her from doing something she loved most: running with the school track team.
As the alarm clock rang out again, Miranda knew she had to get up. She cut off the annoying (讨厌的)noise and rose from her bed. She could hear the sound from the kitchen where her mother was making her favourite breakfast of pancakes and bacon. Her mother always made her favourites whenever Miranda was facing a problem or in a bad situation, but she’d never faced anything like this before.
Sighing (叹气)deeply in the quiet room, she tried to stand up. She could feel the pain in her right leg. It was serious but bearable. Surely, Miranda thought, it would not be as bad as she had imagined.
She shook her head to clear her thought and got ready to join her mother. As she walked into the kitchen, her mother gave her a big smile. Miranda felt less worried right away. If nothing else, she at least knew one thing was certain. She was not alone in this and that would make all the differences, no matter what the day would bring.
【1】Why did Miranda keep on running for two miles every morning?
A.To keep healthy.
B.To realize her dream.
C.To get up earlier than her family members.
D.To get away from the annoying noise.
【2】What does the underlined word “bearable” mean?
A.可忍受的
B.可获得的
C.可创造的
D.可解答的
【3】What did the smile on her mother’s face mean to Miranda?
A.Suggestion.
B.Encouragement.
C.Promise.
D.Agreement.
【4】What would Miranda probably do after breakfast?
A.She would continue training in the school track team.
B.She would have a rest in bed till she felt better.
C.She would have her leg checked in the hospital.
D.She would help her mother do some cleaning in the kitchen.
26、 Old habits, especially bad ones, can be hard to break.
People often make fun of New Year's resolutions (决心). However, resolutions present a big opportunity for self-improvement. Fortunately, social science has some ideas about how to start a good habit and stick to it.
Gary Charness and Uri Gneezy, two scientists at the University of Chicago, did some research, where 120 students were asked to take part in an experiment about exercise habits, and each of them would get $175 in the end. The students were randomly assigned (随机分配) to three groups. The first group got the money for just giving researchers permission (允许) to record their gym attendance. The second group gave permission, but had to go to the gym at least once the next month. The final group gave permission and had to go to the gym eight times that month.
Unsurprisingly, the group that had to make eight gym visits to get paid exercised more than the other two groups. After the payments stopped, these students kept going to the gym at higher rates (频率). They went to the gym about twice as often as the other two groups.
In another study, researchers invited 151 students to work out in the gym, and randomly assigned 75 to a “temptation-bundling” group. As they exercised, they listened to the start of an attractive audio-novel (有声小说). At the end of their workout, students were told that if they wanted to hear what happened next in their book, they would have to come back to the gym. They could only listen to the audio-book while exercising. The other 76 students also completed the first workout but without any kind of temptation bundle.
It turned out that the students in the temptation-bundling group visited the gym 27% more often than the control group over the next seven weeks. Sadly, the temptation-bundling trick fell apart over the Thanksgiving holiday when the gym was closed.
The studies show that trying something new quite often for as little as a month can kick-start a lasting change in behavior. Moreover, “temptation-bundling” may also be a useful method for changing behavior, particularly when used together with other methods. Even if you cannot promise yourself to stick with something for long, there is a huge benefit in putting in a lot of energy for a few weeks. It may pay off for longer than you think. So, why not challenge yourself with next New Year's resolution?
【1】What can we learn from the two studies?
A.The students got different payments according to their gym attendance.
B.The temptation-bundling group loved audio-novels more than the other group.
C.27% of students in the temptation-bundling group exercised more often than before.
D.The students who exercised more often at first were more likely to keep working out.
【2】The third paragraph is mainly about __________.
A.how the research was performed B.what was found in the research
C.why the scientists did the research D.who took part in the research
【3】The underlined word “temptation-bundling” in Paragraph 5 probably means __________.
A.forming new habits by trying something you didn't like before
B.connecting something you like with something you have to do
C.improving your workout skills by listening to audio-books
D.pushing yourself by doing two tasks at the same time
【4】What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?
A.To encourage people to go to the gym more often.
B.To present a new way to do scientific research.
C.To offer advice on how to develop a good habit.
D.To stress the importance of New Year's resolutions.
27、When I was growing up in America, I was ashamed of (感到难为情) my mother’s Chinese English. Because of her Chinese English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended(假装) not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.
My mother realized that she was poor at English. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on phone to pretend I was she. I was made to ask for information or even to shout at people who had been rude(粗鲁的) to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker(股票经纪人). I said in an adolescent(青少年的) voice that was not very certain, “This is Mrs. Tan.” My mother was standing beside me saying, “Why he doesn’t send me check, already two weeks late.”
And then, in perfect English I said: “I’m getting rather worried. You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn’t arrived.”
My mother then talked more loudly. “What he want? I come to New York to tell him in front of his boss.” And so I turned to the stockbroker again, “I can’t accept any more excuse. If I don’t receive the check immediately, I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week.”
The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs. Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English.
When I was a teenager, my mother’s broken English embarrassed(令人尴尬) me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was the language that helped me see things, express ideas, and make sense of the world.
