1、阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

A group of frogs were traveling through the woods, and two of them fell into a deep hole. The hole was very deep. 1. The other frogs believed the two were hopeless to be alive. At first, the two frogs tried to jump up out of the hole with their efforts. But the other frogs kept telling them to stop and wait for their death. Finally, one of the two frogs gave up and soon he died.

2. 另一只青蛙仍旧尽可能地奋力跳。 Once again, the crowd of frogs shouted at him and told him to give up. 3. Because all his efforts would end up doing nothing. But he jumped even harder and finally he made it.

When he got out, the other frogs said: “Didn’t you hear us?” The frog explained to them that he had a poor hearing. So 4. 他以为他们那时候正在鼓励他。

The story teaches us two lessons. Firstly, there is power of life and death in the tongue. 5. An encouraging word to someone who is down can help him make it through difficulties. Secondly, a destructive(消极的) word to someone who is down can make him give up and die. So be careful of what you say.

24、When Shanghai introduced a new rubbish sorting policy(垃圾分类政策) in July last year, the people in this city took some time to get used to it. They joked that every time they took out their litter, the aunt standing by the bins would ask, “What kind of litter are you?”

Starting on May 1, Beijing joined many Chinese cities by introducing a new rubbish sorting policy. People should sort their litter into four groups: kitchen, recyclable, harmful and other waste. These groups are represented(代表) by four different colors of rubbish bins—green, blue, red and gray. Those who fail to sort their litter correctly in those cities may face fines(罚款) of up to 200 yuan.

The way Beijing sorts its rubbish sounds different from cities like Shanghai and Qingdao. These cities use four different groups: wet, recyclable, harmful and dry. Although their names are different, the groups are actually the same. Wet rubbish in Shanghai is, in fact, kitchen rubbish. And dry rubbish is the same as other waste.

Many people don’t know how to sort their litter correctly, so Beijing government is offering online guidelines. If people don’t know how to throw away rubbish, they can search for it on the WeChat account Guanchenglishi (管城理市) to find out. By searching a key word or taking a photo, people can find out which group their litter belongs to at once.

【1】Kitchen rubbish is called ________ in Shanghai.

A．wet rubbish

B．dry rubbish

C．recyclable rubbish

D．harmful rubbish

【2】Which statement is TRUE according to this passage?

A．Rubbish sorting is being carried out all over the country.

B．Rubbish sorting started in Beijing on May 1.

C．In Qingdao, people who don’t sort their litter correctly may be fined 200 yuan.

D．People in Beijing dislike rubbish sorting policy.

【3】Which rubbish bin should the rotten-fruit(腐烂的水果) be put in?

A．Green bins.

B．Blue bins.

C．Gray bins.

D．Red bins.

【4】What can we infer(推断) from the passage?

A．People are made to sort their litter and they are unhappy.

B．Four cities are using the new rubbish sorting policy in China.

C．Many people had some problems with rubbish sorting at first.

D．People should sort their litter into four groups.

25、Do you believe that only boys do well in science? Does it seem to you that girls have better language skills than boys? In your opinion, are boys better at building things? If your answer to each of those questions is “Yes”, you are right, according to an article in Current Science. There are exceptions(例外), but here are the facts. Usually, boys score higher in tests about math, while girls do better in tests about words, spelling and memory. But these differences may not always be true. In the future, a person’s abilities may not be decided by gender.

Jerome Kagan, a scientist at Harvard University, is studying the watching ability of 10-month-old children recently. Baby boys and baby girls are watching a “show” while seated on their mothers’ laps. In Act I of the show, an orange-colored ball is lifted from a blue box and moved slowly. Then it is returned to the box. This is repeated six times. Act II is almost the same with Act I, except that the orange ball is smaller.

Baby boys do not seem to notice the difference in the size of the ball, but baby girls immediately become excited and begin to make noises.

It’s also known that baby girls usually talk at an earlier age than baby boys do. Scientists believe that the left side of the brain develops faster in girls than in boys. As a result, by the time they start to school, little girls have an advantage that boys don’t have, but what have the boys been doing in the years before starting school? They have been developing something called aggression. An aggressive person feels strong and independent. He is often the first one to start a fight. It is said that aggression is caused by hormones(荷尔蒙). Scientists believe that hormones are not the only reason. They say aggression in boys is also caused by mothers.

【1】What can we learn from Paragraph One?

A. Boys and girls have completely different skills.

B. Girls always get higher scores than boys in math.

C. Boys may usually do better in building things than girls.

D. It is impossible for girls to become a scientist in the future.

【2】The writer uses the example of the orange balls to show that ____.

A. baby boys are cleverer than baby girls

B. baby boys are not interested in shows

C. baby girls are better at watching different things

D. baby girls talk at an earlier age than baby boys do

【3】Scientists believe that ____.

A. girls never start a fight with others

B. boys’ left side of the brain doesn’t develop at all

C. boys are all bad at study when they start school

D. boys’ left side of the brain develops slower than girls’

【4】What’s the meaning of the underlined word “aggression”?

A. Feelings of anger.

B. Feelings of sadness.

C. Feelings of happiness.

D. Feelings of disappointment.

【5】What does the text mainly talk about?

A. Development of our brains.

B. Differences between boys and girls.

C. Relationships between boys and girls.

D. Reasons why boys are smarter than girls.

27、Is Technology Changing the Way Kids Develop Relationships?

Technology is redefining（重新定义）the meaning of relationships. For example, technology has enabled people who have never met nor will ever meet to call themselves friends. It makes the line between connections and real friends become unclear.

Because of technology’s omnipresence（遍在；无所不在)in the lives of most children, it is shaping how children feel about and develop relationships without fully consideration of the influence that it has on children’s relationships. Because of this growing influence of technology on them, children need to really understand where they are learning about relationships and whether what they are learning is healthy and will lay the groundwork for a future of positive relationships.

It’s necessary to recognize these changes because relationships play such a central role in who children become and the quality of the lives they lead. Relationships provide children with a foundation of values, love, security, and support. The quality of children’s early relationships acts as the model on which their future relationships are modeled and built. Later relationships with peers, teachers, and other influential people shape children’s beliefs about the world and the direction that their lives will take. In fact, there is no aspect(方面)of children’s lives that remains untouched by relationships.

At the same time, many of the changes in relationships caused by technology have been positive. Technology has also been a good thing to keep already-established（建立） relationships. If you have family or friends who live at a great distance, they no longer have to rely on the telephone or snail mail to stay connected. They can contact through email, texting and so on.

As with all value-neutral（价值中立的）advancements, there are both benefits and costs, positive uses and unhealthy misuses. My worry focuses on how children come to define relationships and the role that technology is playing in that process(过程). For example, I hear many young people talking about all of the “friends” they have made on the web. There’s no doubt that the web has enabled people everywhere to connect and communicate like never before, but I would argue that connection alone can not make a relationship.

【1】The line between connections and real friends has become unclear because ________.

A.technology brings new change

B.it’s difficult to find real friends

C.it’s wise to connect with strangers

D.technology gives kids more free time

【2】What do you know about children’s relationships from the passage?

A.Relationships are easy to develop for children.

B.Children can understand relationships correctly.

C.Relationships connect with every part of children’s lives.

D.Children’s later relationships are more important than their early ones.

【3】The writer probably agrees that ________.

A.children can’t make friends on the web

B.technology is changing children’s lives

C.technology can’t cause positive influence

D.children dislike the growing influence of technology

【4】What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?

A.To list the changes in relationships caused by technology.

B.To introduce a new type of relationships in kids’ daily life.

C.To tell the kids to develop their relationships with the help of the technology.

D.To remind the kids of thinking about the influence of technology on their relationships.

Many countries all over the world have National Parks. There are about 7, 000 National Parks around the world. Most of them  protect natural environment as well as the plants and animals that live there,  but a few are in towns and cities.

There are nine National Parks in England. The first t【1】were the Peak District, the Lake District and Dartmoor, which were all named as National Parks in 1951. Others followed afterwards, such as the North York Moors in 1952, the New Forest in 2005 and the South Downs in 2010.

Many  National Parks around the world cover huge areas of land where n【2】lives, but in England most of the countryside within them is useful for farming and some activities. As a result, National Parks in England i【3】 places where people live and work, as well as wild and beautiful areas where there is little sign or human life.

There are plenty of activities to do in all of the National Parks in England. Visitors can walk or cycle and many of the parks organize activities for families.

There are about 110,000,000 visitors to the parks every year. They bring many benefits to the areas but c【4】problems too. Many popular towns and villages can be crowded with visitors. This results in overcrowded car parks and roads choked with traffic. Life can be difficult for people who live there, as more and more gift shops and cafes are opened instead of those everyday shops; local people can h【5】afford to buy houses in popular places.

Another major problem is litter. In the parks it is especially d【6】to animals. Broken glass can also get other things, like leaves, on fire by focusing the rays of the sun. When they start in wild places, they are much harder to c【7】and can damage large areas very quickly.

All National Parks in England promote the Countryside Code, which tells people how to take care of their environment. If these rules are followed, the National Parks will be protected and continue to give pleasure to many people for a long time.
