On the suburb(郊区) of a town in England, there lived an old man in a nice house with a large garden.  【1】____________ He watered and fertilized(施肥) them.

One day a young man went by the garden. He looked at the beautiful flowers, imaging how happy he could be if he lived in such a beautiful place. 【2】_____________ He was very surprised about this and asked, “You can’t see these flowers, why do you take notice of them every day?”

The old man smiled and said, “I can tell you four reasons. First, I was a gardener since I was young, and I really like this job. Second, 【3】_________________ Third, I can smell the sweetness of them. As for the last one, that’s you.”

“Me? But you don’t know me,” said the young man.

“Yeah, it’s true that I don't know you. But I know that flowers are angles(天使) that everyone knows. 【4】_______________”

24、Do you dream to be a superman? Do you dream to have super-human strength (力量)?

The book “What Makes You a Super Hero”, written by Danika Gordon, tells us that everyone has his or her own super power: to be kind and help others. “There are lots of little stories in the book.” said Danika.

Danika Gordon is a 14-year old girl from South Dakota, the US. Both at school and in her community, she is always helping others. She finds joy in being kind and calls on others to do it.

Gordon’s idea came from her own experience when she was 8 years old. At that time, Gordon was always bullied (被欺负) at primary school. But she never lost hope. From then on, Gordon began to help some students with their lessons. She believes that when students are bullied, they should get help from teachers, and not think about revenge. That only makes things worse. Kindness is the strongest power.

【1】How does Gordon let us know that everyone of us has super strength?

A. By speaking knowledge.

B. By telling stories.

C. By introducing herself.

D. By explaining her point.

【2】What can we know about Gordon from the passage?

B. She never lost hope of life.

C. She dreamed to be a superman.

D. She studies very hard.

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

A. Get help from teachers.

B. Students are bullied.

C. Be kind to others.

D. Revenge.

【4】What is the best title of this passage?

A. Everyone is a superman.

B. Kindness makes you strong.

C. We should help others.

D. The book “What Makes You a Super Hero”.

【5】From the passage, we can know that super-human strength is ______.

A. love   B. smile   C. bravery   D. kindness

25、Most of us fear failure. However, without failure, progress would be impossible. In fact, the word success comes from the Latin succedere, meaning “to come after”. And what does success usually come after? Failure. It seems that one cannot exist without the other.

        Every failure-even the worst ones-helps us learn to do things differently in the future. “Learning from the past mistakes and making changes helped me to reach the top of Everest successfully,” says mountaineer Pete Athans, who has now reached the world’s highest peak (山峰) seven times.

        Failure   also   reminds   us   that   things   can   go   wrong-sometimes   with   terrible   results. Austrian   Gerlinde Kaltenbrunner is the first woman to reach the top of all 14 of the world’s 8, 000-meter peaks without extra oxygen (氧气). In 2007, while climbing in Nepal, she was in an avalanche (雪崩). She survived, but two nearby Spanish climbers died. The experience taught Kaltenbrunner that no matter how prepared a person is, bad things can still happen. But Kaltenbrunner decided she had to learn from her experience and move on.

        Accepting failure is not easy for many, though. We are often reluctant to tell people that we are failures because our good name depends on success. However, things are slowly changing. In the past ten years, some scientific magazines-mostly in medicine-have published reports of failed experiments. The belief is that the science community can also learn from “negative’ results and that this can finally lead to positive outcomes.

        The business world already understands the value of negative results. Eli Lilly and Company has failure parties to study data about medicine that doesn't work.

        In fact, one of the business world’s most famous failures became one of its biggest successes. In the early 1990s, Apple Corporation created the Apple Newton. It was one of Apple’s biggest failures. However, Apple’s CEO,

        Steve Jobs, believed the product had potential (潜力) and he began to improve it. In time, this led to the creation of the iPhone and the iPad, two of the company’s most successful products.

        The story of the Apple Newton can teach us another important lesson about failure. There is a lot we can learn by studying mistakes. Perhaps the most important lesson is that failure and success are two sides of the same coin. One truly cannot exist without the other.

【1】The writer writes Paragraph 2 and 3 mainly to ________.

A．show how bad things can become important lessons

B．tell us that it's possible for anyone to be successful

C．prove how bad things can happen in any situation

D．teach us what not to do when climbing mountains

【2】The underlined word “reluctant” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.

A．unable

B．unsure

C．unwilling

D．uninterested

【3】What is the passage mainly about? ________

A．An attitude towards failure.

B．The experience of success.

C．A difficult way to success.

D．The rewards of failure.

26、Studies have shown that a good night’s rest helps us stay healthy, both mentally and physically. Sleep is probably the best tool we have for memory and learning. A good night's sleep helps to learn better.

But what about getting rest during the middle of the day? Short periods of sleep after a mid-day meal, we call it napping, may help our brain work better.

Past studies have shown that napping can help babies and young children learn better. And napping can help brain performance in older adults. Taking a nap may also help this group of people fight off age-related memory loss, As we all know, the older we are, the more memory we will lose.

The study found that people who took an hour-long nap did much better on mental tests than those who did not nap. The hour-long nappers also did better on the tests than those who had napped for shorter and longer periods. In this study, it seems that the most effective nap lasted for about an hour, but not much longer. Keep in mind, however, that these are the findings for those over the age of 65.

And there is a little difference between the old and young people. Doctor Michael Twery notes that an hour long nap may be too long for young, healthy adults. And 30 minutes is enough to remove the pressure to sleep and will help them feel more awake. If they nap longer, they will get tapped into(受困于) deep sleep, which can be hard to get out of.

If you have trouble falling asleep at night, limit(限制)your daytime nap to under 45 minutes. Also nap before 3 p.m. in the afternoon.

【1】We call “napping” .

A．long periods of sleep after lunch

B．short periods of sleep after lunch

C．long periods of sleep after supper

D．short periods of sleep after supper

【2】This group of people refers tor（指的是） .

A．babies

B．young children

C．older adults

D．young, healthy adults

【3】People who are over the age of 65 should spend napping.

A．10 minute

B．30 minutes

C．under 45 minutes

D．about an hour

【4】From the passage, we can know that .

A．The longer people nap, the better people feel.

B．Napping can be good for both the old and the young.

C．The young, healthy adults should nap longer than the old adults.

D．People had better nap after 3 p. m in the afternoon.

27、The clothes you wear. The food you eat. The color of your bedroom walls. Where you go and how you get there. The people you hang around with. What time you go to bed. What do these things have in common? You’re asking. They’re just a few examples of many hundreds of things that your parents controlled for you when you were a child.

As a kid, you didn’t have a say in everything; your parents made decisions about everything from the cereal you ate in the morning to the pajamas you wore at night. And it’s a good thing, too—kids need this kind of protection and assistance because they aren’t mature enough to take care of themselves and make careful decisions on their own.

But finally, kids grow up and become teens. And part of being a teen is developing your own identity (身份认同)—one that is separate from your parents’. But as you change and grow into this new person who makes your own decisions, your parents have a difficult time adjusting (调整) .They aren’t used to the new you yet—they only know you as the kid who had everything decided for you and didn’t mind.

In many families, it is this adjustment that can cause a lot of fighting between teens and parents. And issues like the type of friends you have or your attitudes to partying can cause bigger quarrels, because your parents still always want to protect you and keep you safe, no matter how old you are.

The good news about fighting with your parents is that in many families the arguing will lessen as parents get more comfortable with the idea that their teen has a right to certain opinions. It can take several years for parents and teens to adjust to their new roles, though. In the meantime, focus on communicating with your parents.

Sometimes this can feel impossible—like they just don’t see your point of view and never will. But talking and expressing your opinions can help you gain more respect from your parents and you may be able to reach compromises (和解) that make everyone happy. For example, if you are willing to clean your room in order to stay out an hour later. Keep in mind, too, that your parents were teens once and that in most cases, they can relate to what you’re going through.

【1】A lot of fighting breaks out between teens and parents because ________.

A．parents aren’t used to losing control of kids

B．teens like to have everything decided for them

C．parents get angry at teens not respecting them

D．teens are eager to develop their own identity

【2】In the author’s opinion, parents control teens in order to ________.

A．prevent them from having their own ideas

B．protect them from being hurt

C．make them respect parents in the family

D．make sure that children have a good future

【3】Which of the following teenagers’ questions does the author try to answer?

A．What do parents control their children for?

B．When do parents take care of their children?

C．How do I get rid of my parents’ control?

D．Why do I fight with my parents so much?

28、根据短文内容及所给提示，在文中的空白处填写一个正确的单词。

Health is very important. As we all know, people want to keep 【1】(health). But how can we do that? Here are some 【2】(way) to keep in good health. I think we should eat more vegetables 【3】 fruits. Because there are a lot of vitamins in them. We shouldn't eat butter, cheese, chocolate or drink coffee. Because they 【4】 a lot of sugar and fat. They are 【5】 (harm) to you.

29、   I was doing some last-minute Christmas shopping in a toy store. A nicely dressed little girl was ______ the teddy bears beside her father ______ she saw a little boy walk in and stop in front of the Pokemon toys. His jacket was obviously too small. He had money in his hand. However, it looked no more than five dollars at most. He was with his father, and kept picking up the Pokemon video games.
