24、“Don’t forget to study for the history test on Friday,” Mrs. Beville told the class.

That night, Julie opened her textbook and read it several times. It was difficult for her to learn all the facts and dates.

“Need some help?” asked her older brother, Eric.

Julie handed him her textbook. “Test me.”

Eric took the book and read the questions, but Julie shook her head.

The following day, she decided to use library time to study. With her textbook open in front of her, she tried to make sense of all the facts and dates. But it was useless.

She lowered her head and hid her face in the pages of the book. “Impossible!”

“Julie!”

Julie looked up. Maria, from her class, was seated at a nearby table.

“Want to study together?”   Maria asked.

Julie picked up her things and joined Maria, who was sitting with some cards and colored pencils in front of her. On each card was a colorful painting.

Julie looked confused. “I thought you were studying history.”

“This is how I study,” Maria said. “I like art, and the pictures help me recall facts. Sometimes memorization isn’t enough, and I have to get creative.”

“I see,” said Julie, with interest.

“But right now, I’m having trouble answering this question.” She pointed to a line she’d written on the front of a card. What would you call someone who lives in Flanders?

After looking up the answer “Fleming”, Julie had a thought. “If Maria could use her artistic skills to study, then why couldn’t I use my own love of poems and wordplay?”

Julie said aloud, “See the flamingo home to Flanders!”

Maria was looking at her. “What does a flamingo have to do with it?” She stopped for a moment. “See the flamingo home...See the Fleming go home to Flanders. Yes! A Fleming lives in Flanders. Perfect! This is a clever use of words.”

Maria used a pink pencil to draw a flamingo on the back of the card. “Hey, that was pretty cool.”

“Thanks.” Julie smiled.

“Hey, want to be study partners?” asked Maria.

“Certainly,” said Julie. Suddenly, studying didn’t seem so impossible after all.

【1】When Julie studied alone in the library, she felt learning history was ________.

A．interesting

B．hard

C．useful

D．surprising

【2】How did Maria review history?

A．She drew pictures.

B．She went over her notebook.

C．She read the textbook.

D．She asked her brother for help.

【3】From the experience, Julie learned about ________.

A．the goal of learning

B．the importance of history

C．the necessity of testing

25、   A 12-year-old girl from Virginia, US, never thought that a simple message she put online could bring her big problems. She posted the words,"Killing. Meet me in the library Tuesday”,  with three emojis（表情符号）of a gun, a knife and a bomb (炸 弹 )on Instagram, a social media (社 交媒体). She was told that she broke the law because of threatening （威胁）her school.

This problem is not far away from us. Not long ago, Ni Hanxiang, a Chinese student at university in the US, was sent back to China after expressing on social media that he would kill his teachers if he failed to pass his exams.

In China, posting threatening words online is also against the law. In 2013, Wu Hongfei, a singer, got into trouble for saying on weibo that she wanted to blow up a building.

"Threatening happens not only face to face but also through the Internet, social media and the telephone,” said Mr.Cao, a lawyer from Chongqing."Although the law of China protects people's right of free speech, it doesn't include words that threaten others' lives and national safety."

"Some people may not mean to threaten. They may just be trying to say 'I'm strong’,” said Fred Pratt, a lawyer from the US.

The girl's mother said her daughter was a good kid who had never been in trouble before. Ni Hanxiang also said he didn't realize that what he put online was so serious.

"But not knowing the law doesn't mean the law will treat you any differently if you break it,” says David Allen Green, a lawyer from the UK. So, do you think we'd better spend a minute or two thinking about the words or emojis we use on social media before we press "send"?

【1】The12-year-old girl from Virginia put the words “ Killing. Meet me in the library Tuesday “, with three emojis________ .

A.in her own diary B.in a letter to her friend C.on a social media

【2】Ni Hanxiang was sent back to China ________ .

A.because he broke the US law B.because he wasn't honest C.after he klled his teachers

【3】From this passage,we infer (推断) that________.

A.Wu Hongfei blew up a building in 2013

B.the girl's mother didn't think her daughter did anything wrong

C.putting threatening words on QQ may bring you problem

【4】Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A.According to the law of China, people are fee to express any opinions online.

B.Many people didn't mean to threat others when they said something serious online.

C.If people know little about the law, they may be treated with difference.

【5】This passage mainly wants to tell us that ________.

A.we shouldn't break the US law if we study at a university in the US

B.students and singers shouldn't post words or emojis on social media

C.we should be careful when we send words or emojis on social media

The Girl No One Talked to

Last year there was a girl at our school who hardly anyone talked to. I think it was because she seldom showered, and she kind of smelled bad. Her name was Cindy Lindburg. I didn’t know exactly where she ______, but it must have been somewhere in the neighborhood because we always got on the school bus at the same bus stop.

One day, I was walking up to the bus stop and I saw Carl making fun of her. I couldn’t hear what he was saying, but I saw how sad it made Cindy. As soon as I got close enough, I glared (怒视) at Carl to make him ______ laughing. But it didn’t work. So I walked over and stood closer to Cindy to make sure she wouldn’t feel quite so bad. It was just one of those times when you just knew someone needed someone to be a friend.

I didn’t think she’d say anything, but she did. Her eyes peeked up from staring at the ground and whispered (低声说), “Hi.”

“Hi,” I said. Then as ______ as I could, I said, “Don’t pay any attention to Carl! His parents have been unsuccessful in teaching him some manners.”

Some of the kids around us laughed after they heard what I had said. By now everyone there was talking with a friend. Quietly, and with a serious look on her face, Cindy said, “I don’t know why everyone ______ me.”

I was surprised at her words. “No one hates you,” I told her.

“Then why don’t I have any friends?” she asked.

I thought for a moment. “Well,” I began, wondering if I could tell her that maybe it was because she smelled so ______, “I think you’re smart, and you dress okay, and…”

“So then, what is it?” she asked.

“Maybe it’s because you…” I paused because I almost said “stink” (发出臭味) but instead, “don’t smell so good.”

She looked up, ______ my face as if checking to see if I was making fun of her or being mean. I guess she decided I wasn’t. She nodded. I added, “I think you’d probably make more friends if you took more ______.” She looked away. I worried that I might have gone too far.

Turning back to face me, Cindy took a deep breath and said, “Thank you.” I was so relieved, and the next moment the bus arrived, and all the kids started getting on.

“If I save a seat for you on the bus tomorrow,” she asked, “will you sit with me?”

“Sure,” I said.

I’m happy to report that Cindy did take more baths from that day on. And it wasn’t too long before she started to make ______ at school. I was one of them.
