25、"Face it,Andy.You sold your heart the day you put on that first pair of Jimmy Choo's."That line from the movie The Devil Wears Prada is an example showing how a shoemaker has become famous in the fashion world.
Jimmy Choos (Zhou Yangjie)was born in Malaysian and he is a Malaysian Chinese,born in 1961 into a family of shoemakers.He created his first pair of shoes at age 11.His family couldn't pay for his schooling,so he dropped out at a young age.He had to work with his father to support the family.But his dream to be a fashion designer never disappeared,so he did all he could to enter an art college and finally took up a position in the fashion world through his talent and willpower.

English is more important now. Almost everyone knows that we should learn English well. But it is difficult for many students to learn it well. Now I make some suggestions, maybe they can help you learn it well.
If you want to become a fluent English speaker, you should take some advice. There are four skills in learning English. They are reading, listening, speaking, and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills, you should first master the skills of reading and listening.
Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentence, the meaning of the unfamiliar words, etc. There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammars or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across, but the fact that you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example, in other passage or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it.
As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening.
For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening and preferably taking some notes.
Speaking is different among the four skills in learning English. The other three you can do alone on your own, but you can’t really speak alone. Then how can you practice speaking? Where can you find people to speak English with? There is a saying: practice makes perfect. That is to say, we should talk with our partners in English as much as we can.
At school you should use the chance to speak. If your teacher asks you to speak in pairs with other students, try to say as much as possible. Don’t worry about your mistakes. Just speak!
If you follow these pieces of advice, your speaking and writing will improve automatically, and you can be sure that with a little effort they will become perfect.
【1】According to the author, which should you improve first among the four skills?

27、During the past week, Beijing has been covered with thick smog that is forecast to stay until this weekend at least.
The smog, covering 1.43 million square kilometers mainly in northern China, made the Beijing government give an orange alert - the second-highest warning - and ordered people not to leave their homes.
A study in 2013 by researchers at Tsinghua University said that there were more than 1,300 microbes(可吸入颗粒) in the atmosphere over Beijing. Although most of them may do no harm to human health, the number still makes people worried.
Zhuang Guoshun, director of the Center for Atmospheric Chemistry Study at Fudan University, said Beijing is covered by smog for an average of 60 percent of the year, while the number for Shanghai is 30 to 50 percent.
However, research studies have found that higher air pollution levels do not exactly mean higher risks of early death or other health illnesses.
One of the scientists' main attentions is the level of PM2.5 - floating matter of 2.5 microns (微米)or smaller, which can go deep into the lungs(肺) and even enter the blood.
Guangzhou and Shanghai in the south of China have slightly higher relative risks to early death from the effects of PM2.5 than Xi'an and Beijing in the north, even though the levels of PM2.5 in the northern cities were nearly twice those in the south, according to a study published in September 2013, led by Pan Xiaochuan, a professor at Peking University's School of Public Health.
【1】What colour warning is the second-highest one?
A. Blue. B. Orange. C. Red. D. Black.
【2】The third paragraph mainly tells us that __________.
A. the number of microbes worries people B. smog does no harm to our health
C. the professor is from Fudan University D. Beijing must pay attention to the pollution now
【3】According to the fourth paragraph, we can see that in a year Shanghai is covered with smog at least __________ days.
A. 73 B. 110 C. 146 D. 183
【4】Which city has a little higher relative risk to early death from PM 2.5?
A. Xi’an B. Beijing C. Nanjing D. Guangzhou

I still remember my first 10,000m race. That was an unforgettable experience. I was not good at running. I was not strong enough, either. Why did I take part in the race? That's because of my volunteer work. When I was 14 years old, I volunteered to work at the water station at a 10,000m race. My job was to pass out water to the runners. I felt e【1】 when I saw all the different kinds of people pass by and take a cup of water hurriedly. Some ran past, some walked past and a few wheeled past.
