24、Is there a strange thing high up in the world's tallest mountains？If so, is it a big bear？Is it a monkey？Or is it a kind of man?

No one knows. This mystery has puzzled(困惑) the world for years.

In 1887, a mountain climber found large footprints in the snow. They looked like the footprints of a very large man. But men don't walk without shoes in the snow!

In 1906, another climber saw more footprints. Far off, he saw a very large animal standing on two legs. As he watched, it ran very quickly.

Fifteen years later，newspaper had new stories about the “something”．A mountain climber said he had seen the “snowman” walk slowly across the snow, far below him. He said it looked like a very large man. From then on, more and more people had stories to tell. But not until 1951 did a mountain climber bring back pictures of large footprints. The pictures showed clearly that the snowman walked on two legs. Could it be an ape(猿) man？The mystery grew! Someday we may find out just what it is that makes the large footprints.

根据短文内容，判断正(T)误(F)。

【1】The passage is mainly about the mystery of the snowman.

【2】The underlined word “footprints” in the passage means “a mark in the shape of a foot that a person or animal makes in or on a surface”．

【3】People were interested in the footprints because they looked like the footprints of a large man.

【4】The pictures of large footprints were taken by a mountain climber in 1951.

【5】Since a mountain climber first found the large footprints in the snow, the mystery of the snowman has puzzled the world for less than one hundred years.

25、   As part of the “Facebook generation”, we have grown up in an Internet world and we can connect with people with a touch on the smart phone. Nowadays, it is common to offer guests the Wi-Fi password along with a cup of tea when they come around to visit. We have lost ourselves in our smart phones.

Of course, smart phones are really useful and have changed our lives in many ways. Thanks to thousands of APPs, we can now do almost anything when we’re out and about. However, it seems that these addictive(上瘾的) pieces of technology are slowly beginning to take over our lives. It’s so easy to become dependent on the phones, whether it’s to find your way around with the map APP or even just check the time. As a result, we’re becoming more anti-social, choosing to search the Internet rather than talk face-to-face with other human beings.

Even when we’re socializing(交往), it seems most of us feel uneasy without our phones at arm’s reach. Phones were invented to keep us more connected, and indeed they have done just that. We can now get in contact, yet this means we’re starting to be short of sincere(真诚的) contact with each other. People are connecting more and more across screens rather than in person.

I’m not here to say I’m any better. However, I’m trying to use it less and less when I’m out and about. Next time you’re out with your friends, put your phone away and see how long you can last without it.

【1】Which of the following is commonly offered to guests nowadays?

A.A cup of wine. B.The Wi-Fi password.

C.A smart phone. D.A piece of newspaper.

【2】What can we learn from paragraph 2?

A.Smart phones have taken over our lives already.

B.We can hardly do anything without phones now.

C.Smart phones can make people more social.

D.It’s easy to lose ourselves in smart phones.

【3】Why were phones invented?

A.To keep people more connected.

B.To help people contact sincerely.

C.To help people find their way.

D.To make it easier to check the time.

【4】What is the passage mainly about?

A.We shouldn’t use smart phones when meeting friend.

B.Smart phones have changed our lives in many ways.

C.People today have lost themselves in smart phones.

D.The writer never uses smart phones when he’s out.
