24、I read somewhere that we spend a full third of our lives waiting. But where are we doing all of this waiting, and what does it mean to an impatient society like ours? To understand the issue, let's take a look at three types of "waits".

The very purest form of waiting is the Watched-Pot Wait. It is without doubt the most unpleasant of all. Take filling up the kitchen sink (洗碗池) as an example. There is completely nothing you can do while this is going on but keep both eyes fixed on the sink until it's full. During these waits, the brain runs away from the body until the water runs over the edge of the counter and onto your socks. This kind of wait makes the waiter helpless and absent-minded.

A cousin to the Watched-Pot Wait is the Forced Wait. This one requires a bit of discipline. Properly preparing packaged noodle soup requires a Forced Wait. Directions are very specific. "Bring three cups of water to boil, add mix, simmer (炖) three minutes, remove from heat, let stand five minutes." I have my doubts that anyone has actually followed the procedures (步骤) strictly. After all, Forced Waiting needs patience.

Perhaps the most powerful type of waiting is the Lucky-Break Wait. This type of wait is unusual because it is mostly voluntary. Unlike the Forced Wait, which is also voluntary, waiting for your lucky break does not necessarily mean that it will happen.

Turning one's life into a waiting game requires faith and hope, and is strictly for the optimists (乐观派) among us. It seems to be silly to follow the directions on soup mixes, but the Lucky-Break Wait well serves those who are willing to do it. As long as one doesn't come to depend on it, wishing for a few good things to happen never hurts anybody.

We certainly do spend a good deal of our time waiting. The next time you're standing at the sink waiting for it to fill while cooking noodle soup that you'll have to eat until a large bag of money falls out of the sky, don't be desperate. You're probably just as busy as the next guy.

【1】What is the difference between the Forced Wait and the Watched-Pot Wait?

A. The Watched-Pot Wait involves body and brain.

B. The Forced Wait makes people helpless.

C. The Watched-Pot Wait needs directions.

D. The Forced Wait requires some self-control.

【2】What can we learn about the Lucky-Break Wait?

A. It is less voluntary than the Forced Wait.

B. It brings more results than the Forced Wait.

C. It doesn't always bring the result we want.

D. It doesn't give people faith and hope.

【3】What does the writer advise us to do the next time we are waiting?

A. Don't lose heart. B. Don't depend on others.

C. Do something else. D. Take it seriously.

【4】The writer supports his opinion by _________.

A. describing detailed processes of "waits"

B. analyzing different kinds of "waits"

C. exploring several causes of "waits"

D. showing disappointing results of "waits"

25、As graduation season gets underway in June and July, graduates are departing to different destinations to celebrate the start of a new chapter in their lives.

For graduation trips, Chengdu in Sichuan province, Guangzhou in Guangdong province, Chongqing, Shenzhen in Guangdong and Hangzhou in Zhejiang province were listed as the top five most popular destinations for domestic tours. Thailand and the United States are popular among overseas destinations, according to a recent report by Qunar, a domestic rival that was acquired by Ctrip, the largest online travel agency in China, in 2016.

The agency surveyed those who were born between 1995 and 2005, and found that making trips and taking stylish photos are now standard practice to mark graduation. It is reported that the market scale of graduation tours has exceeded 15 billion yuan ($2.34 billion).

Young people are good at using travel apps to get more information and their decision-making is quite fast. It’s possible that just because of a song, a book, a TV drama, or a chat with someone, they may decide to take a trip somewhere, said Shao Jihong, senior director of the flight tickets department of Ctrip.

Compared with those who were born in the 1980s, and usually like to plan ahead carefully, the younger generations are deemed more free and casual. According to Qunar’s statistics, 56 percent of customers who were born after 1995 book accommodation on the day they need to stay there.

Besides, 1.12 percent of students buy plane tickets after they arrive at an airport. They have also become less price sensitive, and look for higher quality trips. Most trips involve groups of two to five people, according to Qunar.

This year, college students who traveled by air with their boyfriends or girlfriends accounted for 9.6 percent of the total, up 0.8 percent year-on-year. Those who traveled by air with friends made up 6.7 percent, edging up 0.3 percent over last year, Qunar said.

Last year, students who had just finished their college entrance examinations favored Shanghai, with many visiting the city’s Disneyland. Kunming, Yunnan province, and Beijing are also popular, the report said.

Taking an in-depth trip to one destination is the preference of the young, and those born after 1995 have abandoned group tours with travel agencies. Most of them would prefer to stay at the same hotel for three to seven days, and the number of those who stay in one place for five days consecutively rose by about 30 percent year-on-year.

Meanwhile, themed tours such as trips to deserts, cruises, camping, those involving cosplay or getting married, are all hot elements that the young would like to try.

On average, students plan to spend between 3,500 yuan and 7,000 yuan on their graduation tours per person, and the money comes from savings, income from selling secondhand items, part-time jobs, and support from parents, according to the report.

【1】which of the following cities is not included in the top five most popular domestic destinations for graduation trips?

A. Chengdu B. Shanghai C. Guangzhou D. Hangzhou

【2】Which of the following characteristics is not about the younger generation?

A. They are more free and casual. B. They may decide to a place because of a song.

C. They would like to plan things carefully ahead of time. D. They are good at using travel apps to get more information.

【3】What can we infer from the story?

A. More and more people like to try themed tours.

B. The money students spend on graduation tours is from their parents.

C. Students now are more likely to care about the quality.

D. Those born after 1995 prefer to stay in different hotels.

【4】What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Group Tours B. Themed Tours

C. Domestic Destinations for Graduation Tours D. Graduation Tours

26、The students have given Miss Chan the following.

Passage 1   Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland

It is an interesting story about a girl named Alice, who follows the White Rabbit down a rabbit hole and finds herself in Wonderland. She not only finds the White Rabbit, but also meets other animals such as the Dormouse and the Caterpillar. During her adventure, Alice eats and drinks things that make her changein size. At last, Alice enters a garden, where she happens tosee a trial (审判). The Knave of Hearts is accused of   (被指控) stealing the Queen of Hearts’ tarts (甜馅饼), while the King of Hearts is the judge. As Alice argues with the Queen, the Queen becomes angry with Alice and orders her men to kill her. In the end, Alice grows into a huge size and knocks over the playing cards. Suddenly, Alice wakes from her dream.

The classic Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, written by Lewis Carroll, an English author, was fantastic and entertaining. It took you to a world of fantasy. The entire storyline is so imaginative. Alice, with her pleasant personality is attractive. It is one of the classics needed to complete your bookshelf.

Ada Lee, IA

Passage2     The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

It is an interesting story about a girl named Dorothy, who is taken away from her home in a storm and finds herself in the Land of Oz. Dorothy, together with her companions the Tin Woodman who wants a heart, the Scarecrow who wants a brain and the Cowardly Lion who wants courage, journeys in search of the wizard inorder to return home. After facing many difficulties, they successfully meet the Great Oz, who                                 in fact is not a wizard. However, the old man gives the Scarecrow a brain made of pins and needles, the Tin Woodman a heart made of silk and filled with sawdust and the Cowardly Lion a bottle of courage. In the end, Dorothy finally                                 gets home to where her aunt and uncle live. They are very glad to find her safe and sound.

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, written by L. Frank Baum, is an enjoyableAmerican classic. What I loved most were Dorothy’s trustworthy friends, who were always there when Dorothy needed help. Dorothy is also loved by everyone for her sweetness and honesty. If you have not read it, why don't you give yourself a treat?

27、Jeans have become one piece of clothing worn by the most people in the world. Everybody wears them, from the farmer to the lawyer and from models to housewives. But why have jeans become so popular？You’ll get many answers. For some people they look cool, for others jeans are just comfortable.

Jeans were first stronger trousers made for farm workers in the states of the American west. In the eastern part of the US jeans were hardly worn at all. They were connected with farm people and the workers. So the rich wouldn’t like to wear them.

It was James Dean and Marlon Brando that made them popular in movies and everyone started to wear them. They were a symbol of the rebellion of young people during the 1950s and 1960s. So these new trousers were not allowed in American schools and sometimes in theatres and cinemas. As time went on，jeans became more acceptable. American people in Europe and Japan often wore them when they were not on duty to show that they were Americans. The trousers showed the world a happier way of life, something that people needed, especially after what they had gone through in World War II.

Jeans had other advantages as well. They didn’t need to be washed as often as other trousers and women didn’t need to iron them. This became more important as more and more women started working and had less time for housework.

Today jeans are an important part of our lives. They are always washed a few times before they are sold to give them a faded look.

【1】Jeans first appeared ___________.

A. in eastern America B. in Middle America

C. in western America D. all over America

【2】From the passage, we can know that James Dean and Marlon Brando were  ________ .

A. Jeans makers  B. film stars

C. young students D. farmers or workers

【3】What is the possible meaning of the underlined “rebellion” in this passage?

A.  反叛   B. 活力   C. 清纯   D.奢侈

【4】Which of the following was a possible advantage of jeans to women?

A. They could easily be bought anywhere in the world.

B. They didn’t need to be washed often or ironed.

C. They had many different styles and colors.

D. They were comfortable and easy to wash.

【5】What is the best title of the passage?

A. Jeans － Symbol of Wealth

B. Jeans － Working Women’s Best Choice

C.  Jeans － Part of the Lives of Farm People and Workers

D. Jeans － Popular Piece of Clothing in Our Daily Life

28、   As a student, books play an important role in our life. As Gorky once said, “Books are the ladder of human progress.” Then which book is your favorite?

As a book lover, my favorite book is Robinson Crusoe. This book is 【1】（写）by Daniel Defoe, and it has already 【2】（影响）lots of students like me. Every time I read it, I see a tall and strong image of Robinson. The 【3】（整个的）book tells the stories of his adventures and courage. He is such a brave man that I【4】(钦佩) him so much. When Robinson was young, he dreamt of sailing on the sea day and night. Unfortunately, after his grown up, he 【5】（实际上）lived on a desert island for twenty-eight years. He【6】（经受）a lot. But the idea of 【7】 up（放弃）never came to his mind. During these years, he had to endure hunger, fight against 【8】（自然的）disasters, and overcome many 【9】（困难）. But the great man went out of the desert island at last because of his fighting 【10】（精神）, and hard-working attitude. That story encouraged me deeply. Our life cannot be lucky all the time. But no pains no gains. And only hard work can lead us to a better life.
