24、As a child, I was really afraid of the dark and of getting lost. These fears were very real and caused me some uncomfortable moments.

Maybe it was the strange way things looked and sounded in my own room at night that scared me so much. There was never complete darkness, but always a streetlight or passing car lights, which made clothes on the back of a chair take on the shape of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the curtains(窗帘) seem to move when there was no wind. A very low sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the day. My imagination (想象) would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would lie very still so that the "enemy(敌人) " would not discover me.

Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, especially on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home. That was no problem. After school, though, when all the buses were lined up along the street, I was afraid that I would get in the wrong one and be taken to some other strange places. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn't let the leaders out of my sight.

Perhaps one of the worst fears of all I had as a child was that of not being liked or accepted by others. Being popular was so important to me then, and the fear of not being liked was a serious one.

One of the processes(过程) growing up is being able to realize and overcome our fears. Understanding the things that scared us as children helps us achieve greater success later in life.

【1】The author had ________kind(s) of fears when she was a child.

A. one   B. two

C. three   D. none

A. Streetlight and car lights

A. walk away without others

B. take a bus by herself

C. follow others closely

D. make sure not to take a wrong bus

A. She was usually popular among people.

B. She was always the leader of the others.

C. She always' got poor grades.

D. She was not at all liked by others.

【5】The underlined word "overcome" means "_________" in Chinese.

A. 接受   B. 忍受

C. 信服   D. 克服

25、Tea and coffee are two of the most popular drinks in the world. However, people usually like one more than the other. These drinks also have very different uses.

It is said that tea was first drunk in China about 5,000 years ago. Tea is made from leaves. These days, some people drink tea for health, using it to help with stress or losing weight. However, most people in tea-drinking countries think of tea as more than just a healthy drink. In fact, tea drinking in some countries is a part of the culture. In Turkey (土耳其), tea is always there when people meet. Whether in someone’s home or a company, tea is always offered as a way of welcoming. In the UK, homes and offices usually have tea time. Tea and other dishes are served at tea time in the afternoon. It is a way of relaxing with friends or co-workers.

Coffee came much later than tea, just over 1,000 years ago. Coffee is made from beans. Something in the coffee beans makes a person feel active. Most people do not drink coffee to relax. Instead, they drink coffee to get going. Many people drink coffee in the morning to help them wake up. Others will also drink coffee during short breaks in the afternoon to keep going through the working day. Some people may visit coffee shops just to meet and talk with friends. However, many people in coffee shops drink coffee while working on their computers.

Is tea or coffee more common in your country? Between the two, which do you like to drink more?

【1】What can we know from Paragraph 2?

C．To introduce the tastes of tea and coffee.

26、Terrible weather events are harming the planet (星球，地球), and experts warn of even greater results to come. The sea ice loss and the Arctic (北极的) ice melting (融化) caused by climate change have increased much in the last ten years. So they have pushed down the number of polar bears (北极熊) and seals while polar bears depend on sea ice for hunting seals (海豹).

According to the data from the WMO, temperatures on the Antarctica (南极洲) just hit 18.3℃, which is higher than the record of 17.59℃ in March, 2015. Moreover, temperatures in this area have warmed about 3℃ over the last 50 years. Although such temperatures might be considered pleasant for a picnic or a hiking trip, this is the Antarctica we are talking about. It is home to the most inhospitable environment on the planet because it is supposed to be an extremely cold place. In fact, the average temperature of the continent’s central area is -57℃.

Besides, many places are experiencing the extreme weather this summer. Australia is undergoing its worst drought (干旱) since the 1930s, leaving bush fires (丛林大火) burning so long and causing many deaths. Meanwhile in Europe, crops in the northwest are suffering the driest weather in the past 80 years. Recently West Texas in America has also gone through its worst drought in more than 70 years, while floods have hit Eastern and Southern China.

“Climate change is bad for us human beings, which causes direct health problems. I’m afraid there will be more common events like the one that 30,000 to 50,000 persons died in Europe in 2003 due to the heat wave there,” Professor Schwartz said. “It will also cause more air pollution, diseases and lack of clean water and so on.”

【1】What doesn’t bring down the number of polar bears according to this passage?

A．Hunting.

B．Climate change.

C．The sea ice loss.

D．The Arctic ice melting.

【2】What can you get in this passage?

A．The Antarctica is pleasant for a hiking trip.

B．Extreme weather led to wildfires burning in Europe.

C．Climate change will cause air pollution and diseases.

D．The temperatures on the Antarctica hit the highest in March, 2015.

【3】What does the underlined word “inhospitable” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A．Comfortable to live

B．Friendly to live

C．Unhealthy to live

D．Unfit to live

【4】What is the main idea for this passage?
