24、The cowboy has become the hero of many movies. He is, even today, believed to have courage and adventure(冒险). But what was the life of a cowboy really like?

The cowboy’s job is clear from the word “cowboy”. A cowboy, according to dictionary explanation, is a man who rides a horse and whose job is to care for cattle(牛). The cattle were in the West and in Texas. People in the cities of the East wanted beef from these cattle. Trains could take the cattle east. But first the cattle had to get to the trains. Part of the cowboy’s job was to take the cattle hundreds of miles to the railroad towns.

These trips were called cattle drives. A cattle drive usually took several months. Cowboys rode for sixteen hours a day. Because they rode so much, each cowboy brought along about eight horses. A cowboy changed horses several times each day.

The cowboys had to make sure that the cattle arrived safely. Before starting on a drive, the cowboys branded(给---烙上印) the cattle. They burned a mark on the cattle to show who they belonged to. But these marks didn’t stop rustlers(盗窃牲口的人), or cattle thieves. Cowboys had to protect the cattle from rustlers. Rustlers made the already dangerous trip even more dangerous.

Even though their work was very difficult and dangerous, cowboys did not earn much money. They were paid badly. But cowboys liked their way of life. They lived in a wild and open country. They lived a life full of adventure and freedom.

【1】A cowboy’s job is ______.

A. to send beef to the city people   B. to be a hero in movies

C. to take care of cattle   D. to brand the cattle

【2】During a cattle drive, cowboys took the cattle ______.

A. to the East from the West   B. onto the trains

C. to the people in the cities   D. to the railroad towns

【3】Cowboys branded the cattle to _________.

【4】Cowboys enjoyed themselves because ______.

A. they could live a free life with excitement   B. they made a lot of money

C. they loved the difficult and dangerous job   D. they were heroes in movies

25、   A computer program that could help catch and even translate messages from aliens in outer space has been developed by a British scientist.

If aliens are discovered one day, scientists fear their language may make it impossible to understand them. But John Elliott of Leeds Metropolitan University in Britain has come up with a program that can figure out the structure（结构）of their language. He thinks that’s the first step in understanding what they are saying.

Dr Elliott’s program would compare an alien language to a database （ 数据库） of 60 different languages in the world to look for a similar structure. He believes that even an alien language will have  its own structure. “Language has to be structured in a certain way, or it will be hard to use,” he told New Scientist magazine.

Research had shown that it is possible to know if a signal（信号）carries a language rather than a picture or music．Dr Elliott has gone a step further by finding a way to pick out what might be words and sentences. Because languages have different word orders, Dr Elliott has set up a library of the sentence structures of 60 human languages.

If a message is received from outer space, it could be compared against this database. Scientists would then be able to see if it’s similar to any human language, or a mix of the languages.

However, Dr Elliott also said that in order to translate what the aliens are actually saying, it may still be necessary to have a “code（密码）book”.

【1】Why did Dr Elliott come up with the program?

A.To learn more about outer space.

B.To develop a new language.

C.To help translate messages from aliens.

D.To compare an alien language to human languages.

【2】According to Dr Elliott’s opinion, what’s the first step of understanding an alien language?

A.Coming up with a program.

B.Knowing its structure.

C.Understanding aliens.

D.Discovering aliens.

【3】What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us?

A.Some necessary conditions for making the program work.

B.Dr Elliott’s findings about alien languages.

C.Three important functions of the program.

D.The number of sentence structures of human languages.

【4】How does the program work when it receives a message from aliens?

A.Mix the message with 60 human languages.

B.Translate the message and send it to the database.

C.Pick out the sentence structure and translate it.

D.Compare the message to the database of 60 human languages.

【5】What can we infer from the passage?

A.Not all languages have their own structures.

B.To translate alien languages, there is much work to do.

C.The structure of alien languages is similar to that of human languages.

D.Alien languages are signals carrying pictures and music．

27、   Something unexpected happened in the summer of my eleventh year. The home I had grown up in burned to the ground in the middle of the night. Thankfully, my mom,  dad, grandma, brothers and I escaped (幸免于难) along with our dogs. Yet, we had nothing but the night clothes we were sleeping in. I spent the rest of that night with a friend of our family. I tried unsuccessfully to sleep in a bed in his house. I was too scared.

The next day my mom brought me a few T-shirts and pairs of jeans that another friend gave  to her. One pair of them was too short and the other pair too long, but I didn't care. At least I had some clothes again. My dad returned to our broken home to see what he could find. The only thing he could save was my mom's rings.

To spend the summer my dad rented (租借) us a big house on the same road as our old house had been. As we moved in, our friends and our community continued to donate ( 捐 赠 ) all they could to help us get back on our feet. There were more clothes, furniture (家具), food, money, and even some books for me to read. Love was around us.

Looking back now I am thankful for all we went through that summer because it taught  me so much about life, love and people. It showed me that when you have nothing left but love, for  the first time you see that love is enough.
