24、

Dear Alice,

I just received your letter. And I was very surprised to know that you decided to drop out of school and wanted to be a model（模特）.

Being a model for a living is not easy. In fact, a famous person like me has a lot of problems that you couldn't see. I can't eat what I like, even though I'm very hungry. Keeping thin makes me look more beautiful on the stage because no one would like to see a heavy model.

  Besides, I have to wear a heavy coat in the hot sun, in a swimming suit in the cold air. And practicing walking nicely every day is tiring for me.

  You might say I made much money from modeling. Bus my dear niece （侄女）, you have to know that money is, nothing, knowledge is everything. School is important and everyone should go to school for a certain period of time. The longer they stay at school, the better they will be. Very often, I hope I can give up my job and continue my studies at school. But it is very difficult for me to go back to school again. I am too old to go back to school now.

  You are a pretty young girl with a bright future. You only have one year to finish your studies in high school. A year is really short. Please do consider my words carefully before you decide. Of course, there is only one thing I care about, and that is your happiness.

  Love,

  Emma

【3】How long does Alice still have to study in high school?

C．Alice will go on her studies in high school

25、In order to push students to study at home as efficiently as they do in the classroom, one school in Shijiazhuang has demanded that students should attend their online courses in their school uniforms and that teachers should also, at the same time, give their lessons while wearing formal clothing. As soon as this regulation was released, it caused a heated debate.

In my opinion, whether to launch this regulation or not has arguments for and against it, depending upon one’s standpoint.

On the one hand, the practice of wearing appropriate clothing can help improve students’ sense of formality(仪式感) in their online classes, thereby making them more attentive. If all of the students were dressed in their pyjamas(睡衣) or clothes that would not be suitable for their classes at their schools, the quality of the lessons will perhaps decline as teenagers might easily become absent-minded and even feel sleepy. Therefore, the act of putting on one’s uniform while attending online classes can perhaps be quite effective as an aid and subconscious(潜意识的) reminder that they are students.

The other viewpoint is that students’ learning is their own business. Sooner or later they should be tasked with the responsibility of their own self-control. Therefore, taking online courses at home is the best opportunity for them to develop their ability of independent learning and good learning habits. The effect that online classes may have on students depends entirely on their own self-discipline(自律), so the argument about what kind of clothes they are dressed in shouldn't really be relevant.

To sum up, when we are studying from home on computers, it is both our sense of self-control and our sense of formality that can improve our studies. So it’s a matter of personal preference: You can wear a school uniform if it is of use to your own sense of learning and discipline, otherwise you shouldn't be required to show a fake or unwilling respect for your teachers and school by being forced to wear a uniform.

【1】Why are students required to wear school uniforms while attending online classes at home?

A．To show respect for teachers.

B．To push students to study efficiently.

C．To ensure students’ learning progress.

D．To show the formality of school.

【2】Which of the following is the reason why people support wearing school uniforms?

A．Students don’t have appropriate clothing besides pyjamas.

B．If students wear casual clothes in class, teachers can’t ensure the quality of lessons.

C．School uniforms can subconsciously remind students to study effectively.

D．Online classes will make students absent-minded and even feel sleepy.

【3】What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?

A．The importance of self-discipline.

B．The comparison between school uniforms and casual clothes.

C．The argument about what kind of clothes students should wear.

D．The reason why students don’t have to wear school uniforms at home.

【4】What can we infer about the author from the passage?

A．The author supports students to wear school uniforms while attending online courses.

B．The author thinks it unnecessary for students to wear school uniforms at home.

C．The author thinks it up to students whether to wear school uniforms at home.

D．The author insists on forcing students to wear uniforms.

26、Sadness and happiness are often talked about by people in their spare time. Most people want themselves to be happy forever, but few know how to find happiness. Others say if you own lots of money and success, you will be happy. However, money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. A famous Greek thinker, Aristotle, said, “Happiness depends on ourselves.” That’s to say, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.

The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future, for example, getting into college or getting a good job, which we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favourite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.

Another secret to living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.

Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping or help out with some things around the house for an elderly person.

If you do above, you will be happy.

【1】How many suggestions of happiness are mentioned in this passage?

A．One

B．Two

C．Three

D．Four

【2】If you want to enjoy the simple things in life, you can ________.

A．listen to your favourite music

B．read a bad book

C．think about getting into college

D．remember some problems

【3】According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?

A．Active persons may live a happier life than inactive persons.

B．Money and success alone do not bring you lasting happiness.

C．If you want to feel happier, you can go shopping for an elderly person.

D．Spending enough time thinking about the future can help you enjoy the present.

【4】Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?

A．Playing a sport.

B．Travelling to a foreign country.

C．Reading a good book.

D．Spending time with close friends.

【5】What’s the main idea of this passage?

A．How to live a happy life.

B．How to get a good job.

C．How to help the old people.

D．How to depend on ourselves.

27、   Not only humans but also animals can use body language to communicate. But the things they say to each other are different. We always use body language in our daily communication. When we talk with each other, we may use body language. For example, in the USA, people point to his head when he think someone is clever. However, human beings are not the only ones who use body language. Animals also use body language and facial expressions to tell each other how they feel and what they think.

When a dog is happy, its ears will stand up and its eyes will be wide. When it is angry, it will look straight at you. If an elephant spreads its ears, it means Watch out! To show friendship, elephants will touch each other with their long noses. Dolphins live in groups and like to show each other their feelings. An angry dolphin will slap its tail on the water. A happy dolphin will play with its friends, making small jumps into the air.

28、In most situations, light helps us see. But nowadays humans are using so much light that it is in fact a kind of pollution.

When it comes to looking at the night sky, too much light makes it d【1】for us to watch some of life’s most wonderful views: stars, planets and even galaxies(星系).

According to scientific research, about 2,500 stars can be seen by the human eye without u【2】any special equipment(设备). But because of light pollution, you can only see 200 to 300 stars from today’s countryside, and no more than ten stars from a city. In most big c【3】, people can’t see the sky filled with stars like they die in their childhood.

Light pollution influences more than just our view of sky. The latest research s【4】that lots of nighttime light can harm wildlife too.

When birds fly to a【5】place over cities, they sometimes get lost by the brightness and fly in circles u【6】they drop from tiredness. Sea turtles need dark beaches for laying eggs, but they can’t find their ideal places because of those bright lights.

Too much light at night m【7】even influence human health, but scientists aren’t sure of that. They are still learning more.

In order to prevent things from going w【8】, governments and some organizations are working to reduce light pollution. Many cities and towns have taken action to reduce the use of lights at night. Lights are used only when and where they are r【9】 needed.

Hopefully, in the near f【10】, humans can enjoy the clear and beautiful sky again and all the wildlife will live a peaceful and undisturbed life too.
