24、根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。

A city without cars would be very strange, right? But Venice is such a city.

Venice is in the northeast of Italy. It wasn't built on land, like Beijing or Shanghai, but on more than 110 islands.  Seawater is everywhere around the city.

Even so, travel isn't difficult. The waterways have always been the best way to get around. There are 117 waterways and more than 400 bridges that can guide you where you want to go. People in Venice move from place to place by boat. They like to enjoy the scenery(风光) and cool summer nights while taking boat trips.  They can talk to other people as they go along.

Venice grew out of small islands in saltwater lakes when some Italians escaped from a war over 1,500 years ago, and built homes there.

Water makes the city special, but it is also a big problem. Sometimes tourists will have such strange experiences. One moment they walk across the Rialto Bridge, and there’s nothing special. But when they come back to the bridge an hour later, it’s underwater and everyone is wearing rain shoes.

Once, people used too much underground water. This made the city get lower little by little. Now the city has gone down by 23 centimeters. Another problem is the rising seawater. The temperature has risen over the years. This has made the ice of the Arctic Ocean (北冰洋) melt( 融化).

Every year, high waters hit the city in autumn and winter. When a lot of water comes, more than half of the city is underwater.

Scientists are trying different ways to stop the city from getting even lower. The Italian government has asked some of Italy’s biggest companies to build the MOST project, which was planned to be build under the seawater to stop the rising water. Anyway, this project is helping solve the problem.

【1】According to the passage, Venice is a ___________of Italy.

A.  in the northeast. B. in the west.

C. in the southwest    D. in the south.

【2】______have always been the best way to go here and there in the city.

A. Taxis and cars.    B. The waterways

C.400 bridges.     D. Boats and rain shoes.

【3】Venice _____________ small islands in saltwater lakes more than 1500 years ago.

A. change into B. used to be

C. became D. developed from

【4】Which is NOT the reason why the city gets lower and lower?

A. The higher temperature

B. Overused underground water

C. Too many waterways

D. The rising seawater

【5】The passage is mainly about    of Venice.

A. the waterways and bridge

B. the MOST project and problems

C. the specials and problems

D. the history and scenery

25、The other day I came across a few local musicians and happened to hear them talking:

"I hate all the terrible pianos in this town. I hate that rubbish they play on the radio. They can't even understand a bit of music."

"I'm never playing in that club again. Too many drunks and nobody listens to us."

But one younger musician said, "There are a few clubs that book my band (乐队) a few nights a month, and I'm trying to find other places to play. I'm also looking forward to booking a few summer festivals this year."

It's said that you are the average (平均) of the five people whom you spend the most time with, or to put it another way, you are who your friends are.

Attitudes（态度） are important. Whether they're positive(积极的)or negative (消极的), they're rubbing off on you. If you're always around people who complain about short of work and about other musicians or say bad words about others, and you play the role of a victim, it's possible that you will start to as well. So it's time to take a look at the people you call "friends", as what kind of friends you have decides what kind of life you are going to live.

This is an easy exercise: Make a list of the people who you often go out with, and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list. Set a new standard for yourself and don't become friends with people who fall below that standard.

Keep successful people around you and your own chances for success will be much better. Ask them how they do it and learn from them. Ask if they will help you get the work you're looking for, or maybe give you some advice to help you on your career path.

【1】 The musicians' words at the beginning are written mainly to show_______.

A. the musicians live a poor life

B. people have poor taste in music

C. people have different attitudes towards the same thing

D. young people have greater chances of succeeding

【2】 The underlined sentence "they'll rubbing off on you" in Paragraph 6. means_______.

A. they'll push you ahead

B. they'll have an influence on you

C. they'll cover your feelings

D. they'll help you succeed

【3】By taking the exercise mentioned in Paragraph 7, you can_______.

A. improve a lot in making more friends

B. plan the time with your friends properly

C. develop a better relationship with your friends

D. come to the right way of making friends

【4】 Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?

A. You are who your friends are.

B. How to make friendship long.

C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

D. Friends are the most important in one's success.

26、It was a perfect summer morning on the beach in Rio De Janeiro. A man set up his umbrella and chair near the water and was ready to read his book. Just then, when he looked toward the sea, he noticed a small shape that came out of the water. It slowly made its way out onto the sand and began to flap (拍动) its wings. It was obviously weak and tired.

When the creature was just a few feet away, the man couldn’t believe his eyes. A penguin? Penguins don’t belong to Rio. The man was amazed. He looked around to see if there was anyone else noticing this strange sight.

A jogger soon appeared, followed by another. They stopped and stared. It was clear that the penguin was having trouble breathing. The first jogger looked at the sea and said, “Poor fellow, so far away from home.”

The penguin fell to its side. It had swum 2,000 miles, trying to find the tiny fish that penguins like to eat. Why did the penguin need to travel so far? Perhaps it was confused by moving ocean currents and temperatures—common effects of global warming. The penguin needed help. It would not survive on the hot sand.

One of the joggers phoned for help, and soon some firemen arrived. The man was glad that the penguin would soon be safe, although he felt a little sad, too.

The event on the beach at Rio happened some time ago. It was only the beginning of penguin migration (迁移) to Brazil. Since that time, hundreds of penguins have appeared on the coasts of Brazil. They come all the way from Patagonia and the Straits of Magellan, southern parts of South America. They land on the sands very tired and hungry, and many of them die. Some are shipped or flown back to colder waters farther south.

Perhaps the experience of the penguins will help us better understand the serious effect of human activity on climate change and on the condition of our planet.

【1】Why did the man think it strange to see a penguin on the beach of Rio?

A．Penguins there had already died out.

B．Penguins do not live in Brazil.

C．The penguin was not afraid of him.

D．The penguin was moving very fast.

【2】What probably caused the penguin to land on the beach of Rio?

A．Global warming.

B．Pollution in South America.

C．Penguins’ natural migration.

D．Animal scientists’ help.

【3】From the underlined sentence in the passage, we know that the writer ________.

A．is hopeful

B．is happy

C．is shocked

D．is worried

【4】We can infer that the writer’s writing purpose is to ________.

A．remind people to mind human activity and protect our planet

B．tell us the experience of the penguins

C．call on us to save the penguins on the beach of Rio

D．show people in Brazil are friendly to penguins

【5】What is the best title for the text?

A．Brazil Beach

B．South America Culture

C．Unexpected Guests

D．Human Activity

28、阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法结构和上下文连贯的要求，在空白处填入适当的词或用括号中所给词的正确形式填空，每空不超过两个词。

Last spring I was walking in a park while a little girl 【1】 (hold) a string(线), which had a balloon at the other end in front of me.
