24、任务型阅读阅读下列短文，根据短中的信息完成文后表格。（每空一词）

Have you ever been so worried about something that you have a headache or even can’t sleep at night? Then you cannot pay enough attention during a test or in your study. If so, then you know that is stress. You are worried too much about something. The bad feeling in your mind can make you angry, sad, or scared, and can even give you a stomachache or a headache.

However, some kind of stress is good. You might feel excited when you are called to give a speech at school. You feel nervous but excited. This kind of stress can help you to get things well done. And you may do a better job in your test if the stress pushes you to prepare more beforehand(提前).

On the other hand, bad stress can last long if you are unable to come over your problems. You may not feel well, if your parents are having a quarrel, if a family member is badly ill, if you’re doing poorly at school, or if anything else makes you unhappy. That kind of stress isn’t going to help you. And it can actually let you do worse in your daily life.

The best way to fight the stress is to have a balanced life. Make sure you get enough sleep and eat properly. Have some regular exercise. You should take some time for fun. Get advice from your parents, teachers and friends. Soon after that, you’ll probably get away with your stress.

25、According to a new scientific research, we are rapidly going close to major climate change and the effects on the environment could be quite serious. Geographers predict that climate zones could completely disappear within the next eighty years. Where will crops be grown if this happens? When the climate changes a lot, polar regions will get colder and tropical regions will get even hotter. As a result, where will animals be forced to move on the earth?

Climate changes like these could lead to the spread of diseases. Tropical storms and hurricanes(飓风) will not only increase but may also become stronger. If the changes come too quickly, animals and plants may not be able to adapt(适应) right away and could disappear from the earth.

According to Science Daily, a new study predicts that, by the year 2100, many of today’s familiar climates will be taken place by climate unknown in today’s world. It is urgent that we reduce the risks of far-reaching results for the whole world. The planet itself has been showing signs of change. In 2004, a huge tsunami created by a major earthquake killed thousands in Sumatra and in 2008, thousands more died in China in another big earthquake. Egypt was hit in 2009 with a major earthquake and Haiti was destroyed seriously and became ruins in 2010 by another big earthquake.

Not long ago, scientists discovered ice melting(融化) in west Antarctica(南极洲). This is very worrying because temperatures in this area have remained rather constant(不断的) and actually even lower at time. Melting occurs when temperatures increase and since temperatures have remained, the ice should not be melting. However, satellite data(数据) shows melting around west Antarctica.

Within just the last few months, new reports from around the world have been coming in and most agree that our climate situation is much worse than previously expected. At this point, it doesn’t matter what is causing it, but rather, what can be done about it. On the other hand, our world is getting more and more unstable(不稳定) every year. Natural disasters(灾难) are becoming more frequent(频繁的) and serious.

However, other planets are experiencing global warming as well as our own and some scientists believe there may be some connections between these. No one knows anything for sure at this point because there is simply not enough data.

【1】What’s the writer’s attitude toward the climate changes?

A. We should observe the great changes of the climate carefully.

B. We must connect with other planets to prevent the climate changes.

C. We should try our best to do something against the climate changes.

D. We need to discover what causes the climate changes first of all.

【2】What does the underlined word “tropical” mean?

A. cold and dry   B. cool and wet

C. hot and wet D. warm and dry

【3】What can be inferred from the passage?

A. Collecting more data will help us to solve the problem.

B. The climate will be much better than we have expected.

C. Earthquakes can be avoided in a few years’ time.

D. The ice in west Antarctica will stop melting in the future.

【4】What’s the passage mainly about?

A. It tells us how to protect the environment of the earth.

B. It talks about the bad effects of the climate changes.

C. It shows us how to prevent diseases from spreading.

D. It describes what we should do with the earthquakes.

26、We’ve all done it at one point or another. You’re driving along to work or school when that familiar sound reaches your ear. You look down, reach into your pocket and begin to read, your steering wheel(驾驶盘) in one hand, your phone in the other. What can go wrong?

What do you think is the number one killer of teens in the U.S.? Drugs? Alcohol? Violence? The answer is “distracted driving(分心驾驶)”. According to a study, over 24 percent of all motor vehicle(车辆) crashes involve(涉及) cellphone use. What’s more, drivers who talk on a cellphone are four more times likely(有可能的) to crash.

When you’re a teenager, the risk of getting into an accident rise. According to the study, more than 3,000 teens die in car accident each year, with about another 450,000 teens being injured. Besides, one text message is equal to 0.08 alcohol level. In most states, that is considered drunk driving. When you’re a teen, it may seem that this weekend’s party is the most important thing going on in your life right now, but anyone would agree that being alive is more important.

So, how do you protect yourself from the dangers of distracted driving? Put your phone away. Put it silent or just turn it off completely while driving. If someone is trying to reach you, you can have a better conversation with them when you’re not doing 60mph down the freeway. If you don’t trust yourself not to use your phone, put it on the back seat.

You may get out with talking on the phone now, but there may be a day when you don’t. Not using your phone may be an inconvenience, but it’s better to be safe while driving.

A. To tell people about the wide use of cellphone.

【2】 According to the study, when driving are four times more likely involved in car accident?

A. people who talk on a cellphone

D people who think about things

【3】 How can we protect ourselves from the dangers of distracted driving?

①Turn the phone off. ②Talk on the phone while driving at over 60mph on the freeway.

③Put the phone on silent.  ④Put the phone on the back seat.

A. ①②③ B. ①③④ C. ②③④ D. ①②④

【4】 What is the main idea of the passage? 

A. The wide use of cellphone among teenagers.

B. The causes of car accidents.

C. The dangers of using phone while driving.

D. Ways to avoid car accidents.
