26、I suddenly heard an elephant crying as though frightened. Looking down，I immediately recognized that something was wrong，and ran down to the edge of the near bank. There I saw Ma Sha with her three¬ month¬ old calf struggling in the fast rising water，and it was a life and death struggle. Her calf was floating and screaming with fear. Ma Sha was as near to the far bank as she could get，holding her whole body against the rushing water，and keeping the calf pressed against her huge body. Every now and then the rushing water would sweep the calf away.
There was a sudden rise in the water and the calf was washed clean （完全地）over the mother's body and was gone. Ma Sha turned quickly to reach it and pressed the calf with her head and trunk (象鼻) against the rocky bank. Then with a huge effort，she picked it up in her trunk and tried until she was able to place it on a narrow shelf of rock.
Just at this moment，she fell back into the river. If she were carried down，it would be certain death. I knew，as well as she did，that there was one spot (地点) where she could get up the bank，but it was on the other side from where she had put her calf.
While I was wondering what I could do next，I heard the sound of a mother's love. Ma Sha had crossed the river and got up the bank and was making her way back as fast as she could，roaring (吼叫) all the time，but to her calf it was music.

27、 About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier, only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman!
There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shadows of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green—a strange world indeed.
Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell the difference between colors.
There are also millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us shape but no color.
Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes (蚊子) prefer blue to yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible (看不见的) colors around us.
【1】According to the passage, what can we do with the help of the “cones”?
A.We can tell different shapes. B.We can tell orange from yellow.
C.We can kill mosquitoes. D.We can see in a weak light.
【2】Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?
A.There are fewer color-blind women.
B.Women are more careful.
C.Women are fonder of driving than men.
D.Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.
【3】Which of the statements about the color-blind is true?
A.All of them see everything in shades of green.
B.None of them can see deep red.
C.None of them can tell the difference between blue and green.
D.Not all of them have the same problem in recognizing color.
【4】What light can we use to attract and kill mosquitoes?
A.A red light. B.A yellow light. C.A green light. D.A blue light.
【5】What is the passage mainly about?
A.Color and its surprising effects. B.Women being luckier than men.
C.Color blindness. D.Danger caused by color blindness.
28、Beverly Cleary, the celebrated children’s author whose memories of her Oregon childhood were shared with millions through the likes of Ramona and Beezus Quimby and Henry Huggins, has died. She was 104.
Trained as a librarian, Cleary didn’t start writing books until her early 30s, when she wrote Henry Huggins, published in 1950. Children worldwide came to love the adventures of Huggins and his neigh-bours Ellen Tebbits, Otis Spofford, Beezus Quimby and her younger sister, Ramona. They live in a real street in Portland, Oregon, the city where Cleary spent much of her youth.
Ramona, perhaps her best-known character, first appeared in Henry Huggins with only a brief mention. “All the children appeared to be only children, so I threw in a little sister and she didn’t go away. She kept appearing in other books, ” Cleary said.
Cleary herself was an only child and said the character wasn’t a mirror. “I was a well-behaved little girl, not that I wanted to be, ” she said. “At the age of Ramona, in those days, children played outside. We played hopscotch(跳房子)and jump rope and I loved them and always had wounded knees. ”
Cleary stopped writing recently, because she said she felt it was important for writers to know when to quit. “I even got rid of my typewriter. It was a nice one but I hate to type. When I started writing I found that I was thinking more about my typing than what I was going to say, ” she said in 2016. Although she put away her pen, Cleary re-released three of her most treasured books with three famous fans writing fore- words for the new editions.
Cleary’s books have been translated into more than a dozen languages and inspired many programmes, such as a 10-part PBS series, Ramona and the 2010 film Ramona and Beezus. Cleary was asked once what her favourite character was. “Does your mother have a favourite child? ” she responded.
【1】What do we know about Cleary?
A．She was a late starter as an author.
B．She wrote true stories in her books.
C．She published her first book in the 1930s.
D．She drew writing inspiration from her neighbours.
【2】What can be learned about Ramona in Cleary’s books?
A．She was a well-behaved little girl.
B．She was an only child of her family.
C．She had an impressive first appearance.
D．She played an increasingly bigger role.
【3】Which of the following best describes Cleary as a child?

B．Active.
C．Lonely.
D．Quiet.
【4】What did Cleary do after quitting writing?
A．She translated her books into other languages.
B．She learned to type quickly and correctly.
C．She added her fans’ words to her books.
D．She made TV programmes based on her books.
29、 Children love to have pets, and having these furry animals in your family does good to children. Many studies have shown that kids who have pets do better at school because they have higher scores of emotional intelligence(EI)(情商). Here are some of the ways pets can help children develop their EI.
Grow empathy(同情)
Children are naturally empathetic and having pets can develop this. Researchers Nienke Endenburg and Ben Baard wrote a book The Waltham Book of Human-Animal Interaction, which is an overview of scientific studies about raising pets. 【1】. It also shows that even young children who have pets show more empathy towards other animals and people.
Reduce stress
Today, some doctors are writing social prescriptions(处方) to get a pet. Even just petting a dog has been shown to reduce stress in children. 【2】, because they are great listeners.
Raise self-esteem(自尊)
【3】 In fact, the authors said that research “found that children’s self-esteem scores increased greatly over a nine-month period of keeping pets in their school classroom. Besides, it was children with originally low self-esteem scores who showed the greatest improvements.”
【4】
Many parents find it difficult to talk to their kids about sensitive topics like birth, illness, and death. Learning about these through the lives of their furry family members helps make it easier to understand the cycles of life. 【5】, but the authors say it can also be a very valuable learning experience. Children will learn how to deal with feelings of sadness and anger.
A.Help prevent loneliness
B.Teach about life cycle events
C.Animals can provide emotional support for kids
D.Of course, experiencing the death of a beloved pet is difficult for kids
E.Kids who take care of pets feel proud and have a sense of achievement
F.The book shows kids who take care of their pets are more caring than those who don’t
G.Having a pet around also helps children better socialize with other kids of the same age
