24、Once upon a time, a king dressed up and went to a local village. He placed a large stone in the middle of the main road and hid gold coins under the stone. Then he hid behind a huge tree and watched.

The first person down the street was a milkman with his cart. He crashed into the stone and the milk spread all over the ground. “What fool put the stone here?” he shouted. He picked himself up and angrily went away.

After a while, a group of women came along, each balancing a pot of water on her head. One woman tripped over(绊倒) the stone and her water pot went crashing to the ground. She picked herself up and walked away in tears. Neither she nor her friends thought about moving the stone out of the road.

The king watched all day as many people complained about the stone, but he found nobody was willing to move it. The king wondered, “Is there no one in this village who feels any responsibility to keep their neighbors from harm?”

Just then, the king saw a young girl coming along. She was the daughter of a local farmer. She had been working all day and was very tired. But when she saw the stone, she said to herself, “This stone is a danger to anyone who comes down the road after dark. I’ll move it out of the way.”

After a great deal of effort(努力), the girl finally succeeded in moving the stone to the side of the road. And, she saw the gold coins.

Just then, the king stepped out from behind the tree. “Oh sir,”the girl said. “Is this gold yours? If not, we surely must find the owner, for he will certainly miss it.”

The king said, “My dear, the gold is mine, but now the gold is yours, because you are the only person who has learnt the lesson I want to teach my people. Nothing good can come to a nation whose people only complain and expect others to solve their problems.”

25、Started in 1636, Harvard (哈佛) University is the oldest of all the colleges and universities in the United States. Yale, Princeton, Columbia and Dartmouth were opened soon after Harvard.

In the early years, these schools were nearly the same. Only young men went to college. All the students studied the same subjects, and everyone learned Latin and Greek. Little was known about science. And few people knew that one kind of school could teach everything that was known about the world. When the students graduated, most of them became ministers or teachers.

In 1782, Harvard started a medical school for young men who wanted to become doctors. Later, lawyers could study in Harvard’s law school. In 1825, besides Latin and Greek, Harvard began to teach modern languages, such as French and German. Soon it began to teach American history.

As knowledge increased, Harvard and other colleges began to teach many new subjects. Students were allowed to choose the subjects that interested them.

Today, there are many different kinds of colleges and universities. Most of them are made up of smaller schools that deal with special fields of learning. There’s so much to learn that one kind of school can’t offer all.

26、Life is competitive—some kids can do something faster or better than other kids. This might not seem fair, but all people are different and how well you can do something is different to others. This means there are “winners” and “losers”, and lots of people are neither winners nor losers but in-between. You can choose to be a good winner or an even better loser whether you are competing against others or yourself.

Being a “good” winner

No one likes a “show off”.

No one likes someone who takes all the praise for the efforts of a team.

No one likes people who put others down to make themselves look good.

To be a good winner you need to:

◆ Be modest(谦虚的).

◆ Thank those who helped you for their efforts.

◆ Keep trying to improve your skills.

◆ Aim for the next step up in whatever you are doing well.

Being an even better loser

Of course it’s disappointing to lose, especially if you are close to winning. Behaving badly or angrily, name-calling and going on about things being “unfair” won’t change the final result and will only make you look like a bad sporter. And no one likes bad sports either.

To be an even better loser you need to:

◆ Behave politely, nicely and kindly.

◆ Congratulate the other team.

◆ Keep any negative (消极的) thoughts to yourself—at least until you are away from the game.

It’s OK to let out your negative thoughts to your best friend or parents later. And if you don’t do very well in a game, try harder to learn for the next one. Improving yourself makes you a winner too.

【1】What can we learn from the first paragraph?

A．We are either losers or winners.

B．We should face winning or losing properly.

C．We can do nothing about winning or losing.

D．We are always competing with others not ourselves.

【2】If we succeed, it’s NOT proper to ________.

A．go on improving our skills

B．tell our team members to aim higher

C．thank our team members

D．put down others to make ourselves look good

【3】Who is probably a bad sporter?

A．Tom keeps saying the game is unfair when he loses.

B．Jim encourages his teammates after their team loses.

C．Anna thanks her coach for what he has done though she fails.

D．Cindy shows her congratulations to other competitors even if she fails.

【4】A better loser should ________ when losing.

A．let out his anger to his parents at once

B．express his negative feelings in the game

C．try harder to improve himself in the next game

D．behave badly to his team members or competitors

【5】What is the passage written for?

A．Telling us what we can learn from losing.

B．Offering advice on what we can do to win.

C．Encouraging us to become a winner instead of a loser.

D．Giving advice on how to deal with winning and losing.

28、阅读短文，首字母填空。

Life has gone mostly online for many people around the world. With more people going online during the pandemic, global (全球的) internet traffic has become a big problem. Between January and late March, a quarter of major cities experienced (经历) an i【1】 in internet traffic.

Video meetings, online c【2】 and stay-at-home entertainment have become a lifeline to the outside world. This increase in traffic is testing the internet’s strength. In March, major phone networks in the UK experienced mass outages (断供). People were not able to take calls, receive texts o【3】 use mobile data (数据).

In the US, major telecommunications (电信) companies like AT&T said traffic was up 21% month over month. Video streaming services like YouTube, Netflix and Facebook have cut their picture qualities and download (下载) speeds. This is being done to r【4】 network traffic jams (拥挤).

This is due to (由于) China’s work in building network infrastructure (基础设施), e【8】 5G technology. By the end of February, 164,000 5G base stations had been built all over the country. This has given Chinese networks the power to withstand (承受) increased traffic. “Without the d【9】 of the internet network field, people could hardly enjoy such a colourful life at home. Online working and teaching could never be realized so e【10】,” Wen Ku, an official with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, told Xinhua.
