1、语篇翻译   阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

1. A Chinese man called Cai Lun invented paper about 2 ,000 years ago. He made it from wood. He took the wood from trees and made it into paper. He then put these pieces of paper together and made them into a book.

Now paper still comes from trees. We use a lot of paper every day. If we keep on wasting paper， there will not be any trees left on the earth. If there are no trees, there will be no paper. Every day， people throw away about 2，800 tons of paper in our city. It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper. This means that we are cutting nearly 48,000 trees every day. Since it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow, we must start using less paper from now on.2. If we don't, we will not have enough time to grow more trees.

So how can we save paper? 3. Some people suggest we should use both sides of every piece of paper. We can also choose drinks in bottles instead of those in paper. We can also use cotton handkerchiefs（手帕） and not paper ones.4. 当我们逛街时，我们可以使用更少的纸袋子。If the shop assistant gives use paper bag, we can save it and reuse it later.

Everyone can help to save paper. If we all think carefully, we can help protect trees. 5. 让我们现在采取行动节约用纸。

24、   Every year on 15th October, over 200 million people around the world take part in Global Handwashing Day. But why do we have a day for something we do all the time? Well, research shows that not enough people often wash their hands with soap. Experts believe that this leads to the deaths of millions of people every year.

Sidibe, a public health expert says soap is the most beautiful invention in public health'. Washing your hands with soap can have a huge impact on reducing (减少) the spread of diseases. Handwashing with soap prevents babies from getting ill and keeps children healthy and in school.

However, washing hands with soap does not happen as often as you might think. This is partly because there aren't enough resources (资源) in poorer countries, but it's also because for many people, handwashing is simply not part of their everyday life. It's not easy to get people to change habits they learned in early childhood -- but this is what Global Handwashing Day wants to do.

In 2008, the Indian cricket team joined around 100 million Indian schoolchildren in washing their hands to promote (促进) the first ever Global Handwashing Day. Every year since then, many different events have been held around the world. In 2014. Global Handwashing Day was used in the fight against Ebola, a very serious disease, with events held in affected (受感染的) African countries.

Today, local and national leaders continue to use the day to spread the message about the importance of clean hands. The hope is that handwashing becomes a necessary part of people's lives and improves the health of millions around the world.

【1】Who started Global Handwashing Day?

A.Public health experts. B.The Indians. C.African schoolchildren.

【2】What does the underlined word "impact" mean?

A.Danger. B.Influence. C.Background.

【3】What's the main idea of the last paragraph?

A.Washing hands with soap is good for public health.

B.Washing hands with soap doesn't become part of people's lives.

C.People all over the world are encouraged to wash hands with soap.

【4】Which statement is NOT TRUE according to the passage?

A.A few people's unwillingness to wash hands with soap everyday lead to many people's death.

B.People in different countries join in Global Handwashing Day.

C.Global Handwashing Day's purpose is only wanting people to wash hands without soap.

【5】What would be the best title for the passage?

25、Steve Jobs, the founder and former CEO of Apple, died in 2011 at the age of 56. Jobs had been fighting cancer since 2004.

Even as a young man, Jobs was never one who followed the rules. He dropped out of college after only six months. He quit his first job to backpack around India. Jobs says that those early experiences made him creative. They opened up his mind and helped to create Apple’s “think different” spirit.

As a successful businessman, Steve’s passion and energy encouraged the world. He told us to “do what you love”. He believed “ People with passion can change the world for the better.” He made computers fun and interesting. His iPhone, iPad and iTouch are popular around the world. People say Jobs sells dreams, not products.

Jobs taught us how to face failure. He was fired by the successor he himself chose. Despite this, Jobs didn’t hide away. He picked himself up and continued to follow his passion.

Another valuable lesson he taught us was to listen to that voice in the back of your head – the voice that tells you if you’re on the right track or not. Most of us simply decide that we’re going to work in finance or become a doctor because our parents tell us this is what we should do. But Jobs believed and showed that it is wise to listen to that voice in your head, whatever it is telling you to do.

As Barack Obama said, Steve was “brave enough to think differently, brave enough to believe he could change the world, and talented enough to do it.”

【1】How many years had Steve Jobs been fighting the disease?

A. For 56 years. B. For 24 years. C. For 12 years. D. For 7 years.

【2】What did young Steve do?

A. He finished his college. B. His first job was to travel around India.

C. He created Apple after leaving school. D. He never followed the rules.

【3】What does the underlined word “it” refer to?

A. To do what your parents tell you. B. To work in finance or become a doctor.

C. To do what you should do. D. To follow your heart.

【4】What can we learn from Steve Jobs?

A. If you want to succeed, try to drop out of the college.

B. Believe that working hard is more important.

C. Be brave enough to follow your heart.

D. What your parents tell you is always wrong.

26、Einstein often received invitations to explain his theories at different universities. On these trips, his driver was always the same man called Hans. Hans often said to him. “It is a pleasure to drive a talent like you, Dr Einstein.”

One evening, on their way to a university, Einstein said, “I’m so tired. I wish I could refuse to give my lecture(讲座) tonight, Hans, but I don’t want to let my audience down.”

“I know what to do,” said Hans. “I can give the lecture for you. You can trust me. I’ve listened to your lecture so many times that I’ve learnt it by heart. No one knows you at this university, so they won’t find out.”

So, they changed places. At the university, Hans was guided to the front of the hall. Einstein took a seat, listened to Hans give his lecture without difficulty, and joined in the applause (掌声) at the end.

However, before Hans left, a man shouted, “I’d like to ask you a question.” He then asked a difficult question and Hans had no idea what he was talking about.

Einstein turned pale. “Oh no! ,” he thought. “Now we’re in trouble.” But Hans just laughed and said, “That’s such an easy question that even my driver can answer it. Hans, please…”

Einstein stood up and answered the question perfectly.

They left the university, with Einstein driving. A little later, Hans offered to drive. “No, ” laughed Einstein. “It’s a pleasure to drive a talent like you, Hans.”
