24、   Singapore's public transport system (公共交通系统) is one of the best in the world, so you should have no problem finding your way around like a local person. There are three main forms of public transport that you would find in any other major city—trains, buses and taxis.

TRAINS

Trains run from 6 a.m. to midnight. Single trip tickets start at 80 cents. If you buy an EZ-Link card for $15, you can ride the trains and buses all you like.

If you need more information, just call Transit Link on 1800 767 4333.

BUSES

There are several bus services in Singapore and fares (车费) start at 80 cents. Be sure to always ask the driver the cost of your ticket as he can not give changes. If you need help, just call Transit Link on 1800 767 4333.

TAXIS

There are three main taxi companies—City Cab (6552 2222), Comfort (6552 1111) and Tit (6552 8888). Booking can also be made easily by calling the numbers listed above.

25、Chinese astronauts gave a science lesson to millions of students on Dec 9, 2021. They did so from 400 kilometers above Earth, from the Tiangong space station. The three, Zhai Zhigang, Wang Yaping and Ye Guangfu, showed life in space and did experiments in gravity.

“It was the first lesson of the Tangong class, China’s first in space.” noted China Daily. “Its goal is to make more people know space science.”

“The lab of the space station has many conditions that the Earth lab does not have, such as the environment of weightlessness and radiation.” Wen Xin, a professor at University, told Xinhua. He said that important jobs for astronauts in the space station include research of cell growth and plant life.

In the lesson, Ye did experiments that had to do with cell growth in a weightless environment. He compared the growth and shape of cells in artificial gravity and zero gravity to study their changing rules in space. This was not the first time that China has tried to grow plants in space. As early as 2016, Chinese scientists grew rice on the Tiangong Ⅱ space lab to study how plants grow without an Earth-like environment.

Another experiment in the space lesson was shown by Wang Yaping. She showed how a paper flower “bloomed” on the surface of water in Tiangong space station. She explained that the surface tension of water becomes stronger in space due to zero gravity. Surface tension is like a “skin” of water. One of the examples of surface tension on Earth is that some insects can walk on water. Most of the time, gravity is too strong and it breaks the “skin”. But with zero gravity in space, some insects can use surface tension to “stand” instead of falling through water. Surface tension plays a key role in product development. Researchers are measuring surface tension to improve the quality of their products. Detergent effect can be improved with even lower amounts. Surface tension also has influence in medicine development.

Although the astronauts are thousands of miles away, their research really influence our life. Shi Yi, a teacher, told China Daily that the space lesson was “an eye-opening experience that would attract more students to study science”.

【1】What do we know about the science lesson?

A．Its goal is to study the cell growth in space.

B．It focused on the use of zero gravity in space.

C．It only showed experiments in artificial gravity.

D．It was the first lesson from China’s space station.

【2】Ye’s experiment about is mainly about?

A．Ways to study the rules of cell growth.

B．How to better develop space-grown plants.

C．How cells grow in a weightless environment.

D．Differences between artificial gravity and zero gravity.

【3】What can we learn about from water surface tension from the passage?

A．It always gets stronger when increases.

B．It makes insects fall through water In space.

C．It helps plants to grow better in space.

D．It can help to make better detergents.

【4】What’s the best for the passage?

A．Tiangong space station

B．Special teachers from space

C．A science lesson in space

D．A study of weightlessness

27、阅读理解。

Damini Bansal (14 years old)

Freedom is something different in everybody's way of thinking—a student would probably like to raise a revolt(造反) against all the obnoxious(易受伤害的) rules of his or her school and as a grown up one might want to have less responsibilities(责任).

Freedom according to me is the power in me to make some of my life's decisions on my own. And this Independence Day (独立日) will be a lot more different than our first one in 1947 when people actually came to know what it was like to be free, for them it was the dawn of a new day, it was a day when they could do what they felt was right.

We have come far from all of this. We now no longer see the Independence Day as a day of very great importance for the students of my class (and most of the children of my age), and the most important value is that it is a holiday.

Arihant Jain (12 years old)

We can do anything we want like not going to school.

Everything should be free. We should not pay money to buy anything.

Can go anywhere I want…to the playground when exams are on.

Chatting on phone as long as I want.

To eat dinner outside everyday.

In school being able to play sports and not study.

Flying Kites.

【3】Damini Bansal and his classmates treat Independence Day as .

A．a normal holiday   B．a day that they can enjoy freedom

28、There are mainly three ways of eating all over the 【1】. Some people use chopsticks. Some people eat with their hands. Most people in Europe use a knife and fork.

People should not make noise with chopsticks. Playing with chopsticks is seen 【5】 bad manners,just as playing with forks and 【6】（knife）in a western country would be impolite.

There are also some superstitions（迷信）about chopsticks. For example,some people believe that chopsticks should not be left 【7】 [ˈstændiŋ] in a bowl. It looks like the incense（香）that Chinese use to honor（祭奠）the dead. Doing it at the dinner table is believed to bring bad luck. You shouldn’t use chopsticks to beat the edge of the bowl,either. Because beggars do this to ask for food. Parents might get angry if children do this,for they don’t want their children to be as 【8】（poor）as beggars in the future.

Chopsticks can not only be tools,but also can be a great 【9】. “chopsticks”are known as “kuaizi”. It means to have babies soon. Newlyweds（新婚夫妇）sometimes receive chopsticks as a wedding gift. Skilled craftsmen 【10】 [peint] beautiful pictures on chopsticks to make them look like fine artwork.
