23、 One morning, I was driving my father-in-law to the airport when a plane flew silently over the road like a big bird, about to touch down at the airport.
“It’s magic,” my father-in-law said. I looked at him, without knowing what was happening.
He was a doctor who gave speeches at colleges and had visited more than 100 countries. He understood better than I why a plane can fly in the sky. It, really, wasn’t magic. But now, I realize he was at least right in some way.
Though flying might not be magic, it’s certainly magical. What it brings to our real lives is something found in our dreams.
But too often, we, especially I forget. I read a sentence a few months ago. It said, “You know you’re growing-up when you no longer want a window seat.”
Too often in recent years, I’ve asked for a seat near the exit row, forgetting the wonders of traveling fast. But sometimes, when the Wi-Fi’s not working or my computer has no power, I remember to look.
I think of one time when I was leaving on a family vacation. Moments after take-off, I started working. But a passenger behind me wouldn’t stop talking. “The clouds!” he kept saying, “Look at the clouds!”
I turned around, and saw two men, one who appeared to be in his seventies and the other much younger. The chat continued for 20 minutes until, not patiently, I raised my eyes from my computer screen and looked out of the window.
The clouds!
He was right. We were floating through big soft balls of cotton, each in different shapes. They seemed easy enough to touch. The afternoon sun provided all kinds of colors, all against a blue sky. I put away my computer and appreciated(欣赏)them for the rest of the flight.
I don’t remember the work I felt like I had to complete that afternoon. I’ve never forgotten those clouds.
【1】The writer thinks flying is “magical” because .
A. he wonders why a plane can fly
B. it has changed human lives in some ways
C. he thinks planes have magic powers
D. it can fly silently over the road like a big bird
【2】What is the meaning of the underlined sentence in the 6th paragraph?
A. Where people grow up, their minds slow down.
B. When people grow up, they do not like changes.
C. Grown-ups often care too much about day-to-day work.
D. Grown-ups care little about the speed of travelling by plane .
【3】How did the writer feel first when he listened to the chat for 20 minutes?
A. Unhappy. B. Excited. C. Interested. D. Nervous.
【4】Which of the following is probably the best title for the passage?
A. Is it a wonder? B. Is it magic?
C. What soft clouds! D. What a strange flight!
24、When I was a child, my parents always told me that I should never talk to strangers. This was part of a whole list of things I should never do: Never accept food or candy from strangers, never get in a car with strangers, and so on.
But if we didn’t start a conversation with strangers, we’d never make new friends. We’d never get a job. We may miss the happiness that comes from talking with strangers. And the more people you know, the more chances you can get.
The following passage offers you some advice on how to break the ice.
Don’t just look at your shoes. Go and say “Hi” to that new guy. It will be easier to break the ice if you know more about different cultures.
British: Beautiful day, isn’t it?
The weather in Britain is changeable. So, it is one of the topics the British care most about. And there’s a simple rule: Say “Yes” whether you agree with the person’s idea on the weather or not. That’s because the British start a conversation using the weather so that they can continue their talk.
French: Where did you go on holiday?
To talk with a French person, the safest way is to ask about his or her last holiday. French students enjoy a 10-to-15-day holiday every two months. French employees(雇员) get more than one and a half months of holidays every year.
American: So, where are you from?
The US is so big and people move so often that place is always a source(来源) of talk. You can try to find a connection with the place they’re from. For example, if someone is from Los Angeles, you could say, “Oh, I have a friend who studied there.”

25、根据首字母提示补全短文。
Plants are very important living things. Life could not go on if there were n【1】 plants. This is because plants can make food from air, w【2】 and sunlight. A【3】 and humans cannot make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals get their food by eating plants and o【4】 animals. So animals and humans need plants to live. This is why we find that there are so many plants a【5】 us.
If you look c【6】 at the plants around you, you will find that there are two k【7】 of plants: flowering planst and non-flowering (不开花的) plants. Flowering plants can make seeds (种子). Fruits p【8】 the seeds. Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. B【9】 a few fruits have no seeds at all.
Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds. They grow from spores (孢子). Spores are very, very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds. When these spores fall in w【10】 and shady (阴凉的) places, they usually grow into new plants.
