24、 If you could see a movie of your life before you lived it, would you want to live it? Probably not. The excitement of living is that you don’t know what’s coming.
Sure, it’s hard to see uncertainty(不确定) in such positive(积极的)light when you’re out of work, or when you feel like you’re failing. But uncertainty is really another word for chance.
When Allison graduated from Harvard, she had chances all over the place but had no idea what she wanted to do. She took a job in consulting(咨询), but she knew she wouldn’t stay there. She took the GRE and scored so high that she was able to increase her income(收入)by teaching students. Still, she didn’t think she wanted to go to graduate school(研究院). Allison knew she wasn’t doing what she wanted, but she didn’t know what she wanted.
She worried. All her friends were going to graduate school or starting their own businesses. She was lost and felt that she would never find anything out. After six years, Allison, by having a general(全面的)plan in mind, got married, moved to the Midwest and used her consulting experience to get a great job. Allison realized that she spent her years finding her way: time well spent.
The only way to lead an interesting life is to face uncertainty. Otherwise your life is not your own—it is a path someone else has chosen. Moments of uncertainty are when you create your life, when you become who you are. Uncertainty usually begins with a job hunt, but it doesn’t end there. Every new role we take on means another round of uncertainty. Instead of fearing it, you should find some ways to deal with uncertainty.
【1】 From the first two paragraphs, we can learn that .
A. being out of work is a sad thing
B. uncertainty is what makes life interesting
C. life in a film is more exciting than real life
D. chance never appears when we need it
【2】What troubles Allison after graduation?
A. She couldn’t find a well-paid job.
B. She had no money to start a business.
C. She was not sure what to do.
D. She didn’t score high enough for graduate school.
【3】 How did Allison feel about her six years’ working experience?
A. Uncertain. B. Amazed. C. Sorry. D. Satisfied.
【4】What may be discussed in the following paragraph?
A. How to deal with uncertainty.
B. What role uncertainty plays in life.
C. Why people fear uncertainty.
D. Whom to go to when facing uncertainty.

27、When I was young, my father used to grow carnations — a kind of flower that was red, pink or white. He took care of them with much love and devotion. Every day he came home from work, he would enjoy watching them. And he used to tell us, “No one should touch my flowers.”
One day, my younger sister Clemence, who loved dad very much, wanted to help him. So she cut the carnation from their stems (枝干) one by one and arranged (排列) them on the ground. She believed that dad would be very happy to see them that way.
When mom and I realized what my sister had done, we became completely silent. However, my sister didn’t know why no one showed her any appreciation (感谢). When dad arrived, he went as usual straight to watch the flowers. Seeing his flowers lying on the ground like dead animals, he was shocked at first. He looked towards the street to see if it was any of the neighbors’ children who could have done it. Then he looked at mom in silence. Finally mom, who always taught us to tell the truth no matter what, said, “No bad neighbors did this great job, only your lovely daughter Clemence.”

28、根据短文内容及首字母提示,填写所缺单词。
As red as chicken blood, the chicken-blood stone is one of the most costly ornamental (装饰用的) materials in China. With its b【1】 red color and jade-like texture (质地), it has been used for centuries to create carved works.
Changhua in Zhejiang is one of the producing areas of such stones. The stones were created by volcanic activity 75 million years ago. S【2】 the Ming Dynasty, local people have been using chicken-blood stones to carve all kinds of things in different s【3】 and sizes.
In 2008, the chicken-blood stone carving was a【4】 to the national intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) list. It not only records geological (地质的) changes, but is also a cultural relic that shows people’s lives of different times. For Chinese people, the carving’s red color also means j【5】, success and good luck.
Craftsman Qian Gaochao, 67, and his son, s【6】 more than six months making three “chicken-blood” stone carvings showing the taekwondo and wrestling competitions for the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou.
Qian is a national inheritor (继承人) of the intangible cultural heritage of the chicken-blood stone carving technique. He said, “it’s a great honor to be able to contribute to the Asian Games, h【7】 in my hometown, through my hand skills.”
According to Qian, the content and themes he chooses for carvings keep up with and show the style of the times. “I’m not only doing carving work, but also r【8】 the development and changes of our society, and remembering the important events through my carvings,” he said.
Qian has created fascinating works, many of which are related to important events in Chinese history, i【9】 the Zunyi Conference in January 1935. He has also done work to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China.
Qian hopes the technique can be learned by more people so that it can be passed down. “We are looking for qualified people to continue to inherit and develop these traditional skills. At the same time, we also hold research activities and provide training courses, a【10】 more young students to understand and learn Chinese traditional culture.” he said.
