24、   Many young people all over the world love to travel and see the world. Have you heard of backpackers? They are normally young people who travel cheaply with just one rucksack(背包) and comfortable walking boots. They buy local food in supermarkets to save money and at the same time become friends with local people.

Some people prefer adventure tours. Brave people may try bungee jumping from the bridge overlooking the Victoria Falls in Africa with only a rope around their legs. Some enjoy the challenge of rock climbing in the Alps in Switzerland. Others may go snowboarding in the Rocky

Mountains in the USA.

Have you ever heard of an ecotourism ? It means a holiday in which people come close to nature but are very careful not to damage the nature beauty or living things in the area. How can this be possible? Let's read an interview with people who enjoyed a swimming with dolphins tour.

Interviewer: what was the most exciting part ofyour holiday?

Sharon from South Africa: I felt excited when I heard the sound of wild dolphins approaching me in the water and then swimming directly under me. An image I will never forget.

Xavier from Portugal :There were two dolphins below us swimming downwards. One stopped and looked back at me as if to say 'What are those strange beings?" Fantastic!

Interviewer: Did you feel that your holiday helped local people and areas to keep their beautifulenvironment?

Jane from New Zealand :The hotel and the whale and dolphin watching companies employ(雇佣) local people. They used to hunt those whales and dolphins, but now they can earn money from tourism and don't have to kill them. Not many boats are allowed at the same time so these animals aren't bothered. The boat companies also work to educate the local schools about the importance of protecting these wonderful creatures.

Helen from England: I am glad they are not killing the whales and dolphins any more, but the cars and boats use fuel which could cause pollution and make the sea less clean.

Well, what do you think? Thousands of people visit the Forbidden City or the Great Wall China every year. Do you think that's a good thing, or do you feel that China's important historical sites can be damaged? Are there any ways of sharing your treasures but keeping them in good condition?

25、   Growing a Family Business Every Saturday and Sunday this fall, while other kids are sleeping in or preparing for a soccer game, Phillip Gargiulo, age 11, will be up at 5 a.m. sweeping floors. It's hard work, but Phillip's job at Masker Orchards（果园） isn't just a job-it's all for his family.

Masker is one of the largest pick-it-yourself apple orchards in the New York area, with 200 acres（英亩） of land and 16,000 trees. The orchard was founded in 1913 by the Masker family. In 1969, Phillip's grandfather bought the land. His three kids and six grandkids have been running the family business ever since.

On a good weekend, there will be more than 800 customers. One of Phillip's jobs is to count the items they bought, give customers a total, and take their money. That's a lot of apples-and a lot of math! And more than 100 teens work there, too. For their hard work, the Gargiulo kids are paid﹩15 per hour. After working there for seven years, Phillip has saved﹩3,000. He's planning to use it to buy a car one day, and to help pay for college.

Having a family business means much more than making money. It also means making sacrifices.

"Growing up, it was good and bad," says Phillip's mom. She's been working at the orchard since she was 4 years old. "From August to Halloween, I would be busy. In high school, you want to be with your friends, out doing other things. That wasn't always possible when I had to be at the orchard."

Phillip, too, sees both sides. "I'm learning how to run a business, and I'm learning what hard work is really all about." he says. He admits, though, that some mornings, when his alarm clock goes off in the early morning, he'd rather be sleeping in or playing baseball with friends. "But I'm learning to do things that I will need for the rest of my life," he says. "And I'm spending time with my family. I love it."

【1】Phillip gets up early every weekend to ______ .

A.finish his homework B.do the work for his family

C.prepare for a soccer game D.go for a run in the morning

【2】What does Phillip do on a good weekend in Masker?

A.To plant some apple trees.

B.To work on math problems.

C.To play baseball with friends.

D.To count apples and take the money.

【3】What can we learn from this passage?

A.Getting something probably means giving up something.

B.It's necessary to make money as early as possible.

C.Growing up means doing what you want to do.

D.There is nothing more important than parents.

27、We don’t know how different our future will be in the future. We can only try to imagine it.

At first we think about human relationship. In the year 2050, we will use computers almost every day we will be making new friends through the Internet—even our husbands or wives will be met in this way. It will be much faster and easier for us. On the other hand, our relationships with people won’t be as important as they are today—we will feel a little lonely.

Computers will also help us in many other activities in 2050. For example, they will be used by the children at school to make their learning easier. In addition, there will be much more other machines which will play a similar role as computers, like robots which will do the homework for us.

Spending holidays will also be completely different. Traveling to other planets or to the moon will be available for everyone. Means(方式) of transport will, of course, change, too. We will be using solar-powered cars, which will be much cleaner.

We could expect that the faster technological progress would lead to a more polluted environment. But it isn’t true. We will pay more attention to protecting the environment. And, scientists will probably find cures for many dangerous diseases, like cancer or AIDS. Therefore, our surroundings as well as health will be in better condition.

Although we can’t predict(预测) the exact changes which will be made in the world, we often think about them. We worry about our and our children’s future; we have expectations, hopes as well as fears. But I think we should be rather sanguine(乐观的) about our future. We should be happy and believe good things will happen.

【1】Why will people probably feel a little lonely in 2050?

A. Because the number of people will become much smaller．

B. Because there will be less face-to-face communication

C. Because people won’t like making friends with each other

D. Because people won’t communicate with each other much often．

【2】According to the passage, which of the following will happen in 2050?

A. The relationship between people will be more important than today.

B. The way of spending holidays will be the same as that of today.

C. It won’t be difficult for people to travel to other planets.

D. Our environment will be much more polluted with a growing number of cars.

【3】 What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. How people will communicate in the year 2050.

B. What our life will be like in the year 2050.

C. How people will travel and spend their holidays in the year 2050.

D. What high technology will appear in the year 2050.

28、One day, a boy had a fight with one of his classmates. Then he went to his grandfather and told him his story a【1】. “He is really bad,” the boy said, “and I hate him.”

The boy looked at his grandfather’s eyes and a【9】, “Which tiger always controls you, Grandfather?”

The old man said slowly in a serious v【10】, “The one that I feed. I always feed the good and kind tiger, so I never hate others and seldom (很少) get angry now. ”
