25、Climate change has been a hot topic for a long time. Scientists often provide new studies and suggestions for protecting our planet.
Scientists in the US recently invented the whitest paint that we have ever made. The paint can reflect(反射)up to 98 percent of sunlight and cool surfaces(表面)by 4.5℃. The researchers hope that this new paint can help cool down the planet if it is used to paint buildings. “Our paint can help fight against global warming by helping to cool Earth—that’s the cool point,” lead researcher Professor Ruan Xiulin from Purdue University said. “Producing the whitest paint means the paint can reflect the maximum(最大的)amount of sunlight back to space.”
There are two things that make the paint so white. First, it has a large amount of barium sulphate(硫酸钡). Barium sulphate is used to make paper white. Also, the barium sulphate particles(微粒)in the paint are all different sizes, which helps to reflect more light.
But exactly how much paint would be needed to help stop climate change? “We estimate(估计)we would only need to paint 1 percent of the Earth’s surface with this paint—perhaps an area where no people live that is covered in rocks—and that could help fight the climate change,” Professor Ruan said.
Thankfully, we won’t have to wait much longer to use it. The new whitest white paint could be on the market in about one or two years.
【1】The white paint can ________.
A.protect us from sunburns
B.clean up air pollution
C.take in direct sunlight
D.reflect a lot of sunlight
【2】The paint can reflect more sunlight because ________.
① it reflects sunlight directly back into space
② it has a large amount of barium sulphate
③ the barium sulphate in it can turn things white
④ the barium sulphate particles in it have different sizes
A.①②
B.①③
C.②③
D.②④
【3】Why do scientists invent the white paint?
A.Because the white paint can be used to paint buildings.
B.Because the white paint can help make much money.
C.Because the white paint can help cool down the planet.
D.Because Professor Ruan asked them to do so.
【4】The new paint is most likely to be used ________.
A.on buildings or rocks
B.on human skin
C.in forests
D.in rivers and oceans
【5】What is the writer’s attitude towards the new paint?
A.He is against it.
B.He supports it.
C.He is not sure about it.
D.He doesn’t care.
26、Tom and his family lived in the countryside. They had to use an outhouse (户外厕所) near a river. It was hot in the summer and cold in the winter. And it smelled all the time. Tom hated the outhouse. He wanted to push it into the river.
One day, a heavy spring rain made the river rise. Tom decided it was time to make his move. So he got a large stick and used it to push the outhouse. Finally it fell into the river. That night, his dad told him that they were going to the woods after dinner. Usually, this meant Tom would get a spanking (打屁股). Tom asked why. The dad answered, “Someone pushed the outhouse into the river today. It was you, wasn’t it?” Tom answered yes. Then Tom thought for a while and said, “Dad, I read in school that George Washington cut down a cherry (樱桃) tree and didn’t get into trouble because he told the truth.” The dad said, “Well, son, George Washington’s father wasn’t in that cherry tree.”

27、 Even the closest star to us, Proxima Centauri, is very far away.
Scientists would love to get a closer look at this star and its planets. But the fastest spaceship ever built would take nearly 75,000 years to get there. That's just too long!
Scientists have come up with a plan-send a group of very tiny spaceships. Why tiny? The smaller something is, the easier it is to make it go fast. They're hoping a group of stamp-sized ships(Star Chips)could travel fast enough to reach Proxima Centauri in just 20 years. There they could take pictures and collect information. If there is any life there, the Star Chips might be able to find it-and say hello from Earth.
Each Star Chip will carry a tiny camera, thrusters, and sensors. It will ride a sail about the size of a picnic table. The plan is to send many, in case some don't make it.
Scientists hope that their tiny Star Chips will be able to reach a speed of 134 million miles(216 million km)an hour. First, the rocket will take the Star Chips to space. Once in space, they will open their shining sails. Then, people on Earth will shoot out lasers at the sails. All those lasers shot at the sails will push the Star Chips so fast that they will reach the moon in just two minutes.
The computer chip at the heart of each Star Chip is tiny like the ones in mobile phones. None of the other technologies has been built yet. The hardest part will be the lasers, which have to be extremely powerful. The team will also need to invent a light, strong, and very shiny material for the sails, and tiny cameras powerful enough to take pictures of planets. And they'll have to find a way to send those pictures back to Earth. There's a lot of work ahead. But if they succeed, the heart of a mobile phone may be the very first interstellar traveler.
【1】Scientists plan to invent the Star Chip mainly because it .
A.could send messages to other planets B.could take photos and collect information
C.could find life in other stars and planets D.could be small enough to travel much faster
【2】Powerful lasers will be shot at Star Chips to .
A.make sure Star Chips won't be hit in space B.send Star Chips to space from Earth safely
C.open the strong and shining sails of Star Chips D.give Star Chips enough energy to travel in space
【3】What technologies about Star Chips are still waiting to be built?
①The way to send pictures back to Earth.
②The strong and shiny material for the sails.
③The tiny cameras able to take photos of planets.
④The chip as small as the ones in mobile phones.
A.①②③ B.②③④
C.①②④ D.①③④
【4】What is the best title of the passage?
A.A Chip with Great Power B.A New Coming Spaceship
C.A Big Problem about Star Chips D.A Great Trip to Proxima Centauri
28、阅读下面短文,用括号内所给动词的适当形式填空。(必要时可加情态动词或助动词)
Long long ago there was a lovely field garden and there was a very thick tree in it. Both the vegetables and the tree 【1】_______(make) the garden beautiful. The garden’s owner was very proud of this. But no one knew that the vegetables and the tree couldn’t stand each other. The vegetables hated the tree’s shadow(树荫), “You【2】_______ always _______(stand) there.

Before long, the vegetables were really thin and the tree’s branches were drying up. “You 【6】_____already _______(drink) too much water.” The farmer got angry with the vegetables and stopped watering them. When he did that, both the tree and the vegetables really learned what thirst was. There seemed 【7】________(be) no way to work out the problem, but one of the vegetables, a small tomato, understood what 【8】________(happen), and decided to deal with it. With the little water and under the hot sunshine, the little tomato did all he 【9】 _______(do) to grow, grow …..
He managed to grow so big that the farmer【10】_______(shock) and started watering the field again. Then the vegetables and the tree realized that it was better to help each other than to fight. So they decided to work together and help each other instead of fighting, using both the shadow and the water in the best combination to grow good vegetables. Seeing how well they were doing, the farmer now gave the best of care to his vegetable field, watering it better than any other field.
