24、It was one of the hottest days of the dry season. It had not rained in almost a month. The crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. If it did not rain soon, we would lose everything. On this day, I witnessed(目睹) a wonder.
I was making lunch when I saw my 6-year-old son, Billy, walking very slowly toward the woods. Minutes later he came running out again, toward the house. Soon after, I saw him walking toward the woods again. This went on for an hour. Finally I walked out of the house quietly and followed him.
Billy cupped both hands in front of him as he walked, careful not to drop the water he carried. Leaves slapped his face but he kept walking into the woods. Then I saw an amazing sight. Several large deer stood in front of him. Billy walked right up to them. I saw a tiny baby deer lying on the ground. It was dying of thirst, and it lifted its head with great effort to drink the water in my boy’s hands.
When the water was gone, Billy ran back to the house. I followed him to the tap. Billy opened it and a small trickle(细流) came out. He knelt down, letting the drops slowly fill up his "cup".
Now I understood what was going on. The week before, he tried giving water to our horses but I told him not to waste water. Now when he stood up and turned, I was there in front of him. His eyes filled with tears, “I’m not wasting,” he said. I joined him with a small pot of water from the kitchen. I let him walk to the baby deer alone while I stood at the edge of the woods. As tears rolled down my face, they were suddenly joined by other drops... and more drops... as if the sky itself was crying.

【3】The last sentence in the last paragraph means_________.
A. the writer was moved by the son and began to cry
B. the son cried because his parent told him not to waste water
C. a big trickle came out of the lap for the deer to drink

25、How do you like your school? Have you ever written to your headmaster to express your idea? Here are some letters written by students from different schools.
Luke, 14, from Jiangsu I will give some suggestions about our school uniform. In our school, we students have to wear uniform every day. But the yellow and green sports kit (服装) looks really dark and old. It can’t stand for young and lively spirit. We can add some red or orange colors and make a new type of uniform. I hope our headmaster will think about it. |
Danny, 14, from Zhejiang I have two suggestions for my headmaster. First of all, I think we should have more hobby classes in science, such as plane model making class and computer programming class. It is really boring to study basic subjects all the time. And second, I hope we can have more PE lessons or more time for physical exercise. Lots of students now don’t have a strong enough body. |
Sam, 15, from Shanxi I’d like to say thank you to my headmaster. About one week ago, I got a bad cold after playing basketball. Our headmaster came to me after he knew about it. He took care of me until my parents came. I really want to thank him for that. |
Helen, 14, from Shandong In the letter I wrote, I want to talk about the possibility of personal classes. Now many middle schools are trying the “personal class" system. Students don’t have regular classes. They can choose lessons they want to take. I think it is more effective. And it is also good for exercise. We don’t have to stay in one classroom all the time. |
【1】Luke gives some suggestions about ______ in his letter.
A. hobby classes B. personal classes C. school uniform D. basketball playing
【2】The reasons why Danny gives two suggestions are that ______.
A. students have too few classes every day and they love sports
B. studying basic subjects only is boring and students are too weak
C. hobby classes are interesting and students have no PE lessons at all
D. students want to cancel the basic subjects and they want to have more sports lessons
【3】According to the passage, most students write to their headmasters about ______.
A. personal experiences B. how to make schools better
C. spare time activities D. how to deal with other students
26、My dad was a plumber(水管工) for the public works department in our town, so from time to time he came into my school. Can you imagine sitting in class and seeing your dad walk past the door of your classroom and wave his hand at you? In junior high?
One girl in our class always made fun of me because my dad was a plumber and hers was a lawyer(律师), and she would say things like, “Ew, that’s gross(粗俗的)!” I must admit I was sometimes embarrassed by what my dad did, especially in my early teens, when the only thing I really cared about was what the other girls thought.
The girl lived a few streets away from us, and one winter day---the day her elder sister was getting married---the toilet in their main upstairs bathroom broke and there was water everywhere. Her father, the lawyer called every plumber in the Yellow Page, but nobody would come and because we were having a major snowstorm. Her daughter told him that my father was a plumber, and he called, and my dad went right over---and took me with him.(Maybe he was hoping that the lawyer’s daughter would be nicer to me.) My father fixed the toilet, help them clean up everything, and didn’t take much time for his trouble. But as we were leaving, he told the girl, “If I ever need a lawyer, I’ll be happy to call your dad.”
As we walked to our car, he said to me, “Do you believe he didn’t know where the main shut-off valve(阀) was? What a dumb ass!”
From that point on, her dad was known in school as Lawyer Dumb Ass.
When my husband and I bought our house, the first thing my dad showed him was the main shut-off valve.
I have always been proud to say that I’m a plumber’s daughter.
【1】When her father came to her school and walked past the classroom door, the writer might feel ________.
A.pleased B.embarrassed C.disappointed D.proud
【2】The girl’s attitude towards the writer can be best described as ________.
A.unfriendly B.doubtful C.kind D.gross
【3】Why couldn’t the lawyer find anybody to fix the toilet on that winter day?
A.He had little money
B.All the plumbers were too busy to come
C.There was a major snowstorm and nobody would come out
D.One of his daughters was getting married and the house was in a mess
【4】From the passage, we know the followings are right EXCEPT _______?
A.The writer’s father thought the girl’s father was stupid.
B.In the writer’s early teens, the only thing she cared about was what her dad did.
C.The writer’s father spent only a little time fixing the toilet.
D.What the other girls thought troubled the writer when she was in junior high.
27、A workmate of mine lives in the same street as me. He drives about 5 kilometres to work every day while I cycle the same distance almost every day. I must say that I occasionally(偶尔地)take the car if the weather is very bad, or I am very tired or in a hurry. Imagine my surprise when I cycled to work one day, went for a shower in the sports centre and saw my neighbor in the gym on the cycling machine after driving to work! I share an office with another workmate who lives near to me. She drives to work every day and, the end of the day, she drives to a gym. I don’t see the logic(逻辑). It would be much easier to cycle to work so that you have some exercise every day as part of your daily routine.
I try to advise them to cycle to work, so I did some research about the benefits of cycling to work. Of course, cycling has some advantages over driving. It is cheaper, it is better for the environment, and you don’t have to find a parking space. The point about the parking space is an important one as the car parks are often full. I know that my workmate sometimes spends 15 minutes looking for a parking space! It is true that cycling is a little slower than going by car, but at rush hour it doesn’t make much difference. The time it takes to cycle is generally easier to predict than the time it takes to drive. When there is heavy traffic, people on bicycles can get past, while people in cars have to wait.
There are clear health benefits to cycling. According to one expert, if you cycle regularly you should be as fit as a younger person. I am 47 and I still play football in a team,so I would say that his opinion is true. As well as being good for your health, cycling can reduce stress. I also find that when I can’t solve a problem at work, the answer often comes to me when I am cycling. Sometimes the harder you think about a problem, the harder it is to find the solution. And you really need to pay less attention to the problems. Cycling relaxes the mind.
I am going to say to my workmates “two wheels good, four wheels bad” every day until they get on their bikes!
