24、 In the past 2018, there were some amazing achievements in China which not only conquered (征服) the world but also sounded very interesting. Let’s have a look at some of them!
The tallest man-made waterfall in the world | In Guiyang, there is a waterfall hanging in front of a building. It’s reported that keeping it running costs about 800 yuan per hour, so it has been shown only for less than 10 times. And getting the waterfall ready isn’t an easy thing because it’s on the top of a 121-meter-tall building. |
The first pit (坑) hotel in the world | With 19 floors, this five-star hotel was built nearly 90 meters below the ground in Shanghai. It’s the world’s lowest building. It costs around 600 dollars for one night. Compared with the height, the cost is pretty high. |

26、 We often reach a point in our life when we should be ready for change that will help us unlock our self-improvement power. However, there’s always something staring at us right under our nose but we don’t see it. The only time we think of unlocking our self-improvement power is when everything gets worst.
When do we realize that we need to change diets? When none of our shirts and jeans would fit us. When do we stop eating candies and chocolates? When all of our teeth have fallen off. When do we realize that we need to stop smoking? When our lungs have gone bad. We see the warning signs and signals when things get rough and difficult.
The only time most of us ever learn about unlocking our self-improvement power is when the whole world is falling apart. We think and feel this way because it is not easy to change, but change becomes more painful when we ignore(忽视) it.
Change will happen, like it or hate it. At one point or another, we are all going to finally unlock our self-improvement power not because the world says so, but because we realize it’s for our own good.
Happy people don’t just accept change; they embrace (拥抱) it. Unlocking our self-improvement power means unlocking ourselves out of the box of thought that is just the way we are. It is such a poor excuse for people who fear change.
Jane always tells everyone that she doesn’t have the courage to be around groups of people. She heard her family tell the same things about her to other people. Over the years, that is what Jane has believed. Every time a great crowd come, she steps back and locks herself up in a room. Jane not only believes in her story, but lives it!
Self-improvement may not be everybody’s favorite word, but if we look at things in a different way, we might have greater chances of enjoying the whole process instead of counting the days until we are fully improved. Three sessions in a week at the gym would result in a healthier life. Reading books every day would build up knowledge. And only when we are enjoying the whole process of unlocking our self-improvement power will we realize that we’re beginning to take things light and become happy.
【1】The writer mentions the three questions in Paragraph 2 to show that ________.
A.we learn our lessons when we experience pain
B.we are responsible for the problems we meet
C.life fails us when we get into the wrong way
D.life is a long journey full of ups and downs
【2】What is the key to solving Jane’s problem?
A.She needs to remember why she started.
B.She has to know how to get on with people.
C.She has to realize she is not what she is in her story.
D.She needs to understand the importance of confidence.
【3】The writer probably agrees that ________.
A.the world tells us how to improve ourselves
B.people change when they find it easy to do that
C.welcoming change in life is a drive to become better
D.enjoying the process of self-improvement makes life simpler
【4】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.Is it important to take things light?
B.Is it necessary to embrace challenges?
C.To hold on to the last moment or to give up?
D.To free ourselves out of the box or to stay in it?
27、 Since 2005, office workers in Japan have been allowed to wear T-shirts and shorts to work, instead of business suits and ties. Why? The answer is simple. The government is trying to reduce the use of air conditioners.
Although air conditioners make our lives easier in hot weather, they can be bad for the environment. The coolers use a great deal of electricity to function and add to the effects of global warming.
But it is a vicious (恶性的) cycle. As temperatures rise, there will be more need for air conditioning.
Pawel Wargocki, an expert at the Technical University of Denmark, told The New York Times: “The air conditioning causes a huge problem to global climate and energy use.” He added, “More and more air conditioners are used. It’s very dangerous.”
We can’t live with air conditioning. But the thing is, we can’t live without it either. Scientific studies have shown that if indoor temperatures are high in hot weather, people will suffer from certain health problems and have a lower productivity.
For example, when air conditioners were turned down in Japanese offices, the room temperature rose to 28 or higher. As a result, workers started getting headaches, and feeling sleepy.
They couldn’t give all their attention to work and their productivity dropped by 2 percent, which means they did 30 minutes less work each day, according to Shinichi Tanabe, a professor of architecture at Waseda University in Tokyo, Japan.
So the best way to balance our comfort with environmental awareness is to change our expectations. Most of the time, it’s not that the room is too hot, but that we are used to it being cooler.
“The temperature many Americans find most comfortable indoors in summer —21C— feels uncomfortable to most Europeans, who find it too cold.” said Michael Sivak, professor at a University of Michigan, US. He said it is because Europeans care more about the environment and are willing to accept a bit more heat in summer.
Also, we can try to change our daily behavior. Open the windows to let air in, for example. Turning on the air conditioner is not the only way to make us feel comfortable.
【1】What did the Japanese government do to reduce the use of air conditioners?
A. To allow the workers to wear T-shirts to work.
B. To stop the workers from using air conditioners.
C. To let people accept a bit more heat in summer.
D. To ask people to open windows to let air in.
【2】The writer probably agrees that ______.
A. most people will be sick without air conditioners
B. global warming is mainly caused by air conditioners
C. people have to be used to living without air conditioners
D. we should change our expectations to protect environment
【3】We can learn from the passage that ______.
A. Japanese office workers are less productive in summer
B. Americans care less about environment than Europeans
C. People in Denmark believe air conditioners are dangerous
D. Europeans accept a bit cooler than Americans in summer
【4】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Protect Environment: Is it time to change business suits?
B. Protect Environment: Is it time to focus on temperature?
C. Protect Environment: Shall we change our expectations?
D. Protect Environment: Shall we stop using air conditioners?
