24、   It was Thanksgiving morning and in the crowded kitchen of my small home I was busy preparing the traditional Thanksgiving turkey when the doorbell rang. I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling(蜷缩) together inside the storm door on the top step. “Any old paper, lady?” asked one of them.

I was busy. I wanted to say “no” until I looked down at their feet. They were wearing thin little sandals, wet with heavy snow. “Come in and I’ll make you a cup of hot cocoa.”

They walked over and sat down at the table. Their wet scandals left marks upon the floor. I served them cocoa and bread with jam to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started again on my household budget.

The silence in the front door struck me. I looked in. The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, “Lady, are you rich?”

“Am I rich? Mercy, no!”

I looked at my shabby slipcover ( 家具套). The girl put her cup back in its saucer carefully and said, “Your cups match your saucer.” Her voice was hungry with a need that no amount of food could supply. They left after that, holding their bundles of papers against the wind. They didn’t say “Thank you”. They didn’t need to. They had reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful.

Plain china cups and saucers were only worth five pence. But they matched.

I tasted the potatoes and stirred the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof covered over our heads, my man with a good, steady job—these matched, too.

I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The muddy prints of small scandals were still wet upon my floor. Let them be for a whole, I thought, just in case I should begin to feel how rich I am.

【1】Why did the writer let the children in?

A.She showed great pity on them.

B.She had old papers to sell.

C.She knew them and wanted to make them a cup of coca.

D.She wanted to invite them to her Thanksgiving party.

【2】The girl thought the writer was rich perhaps in that   .

A.she saw that the lady’s room was comfortable B.she saw the cups matched the saucers C.the writer’s slipcovers were very new   D.the boy thought so

【3】From the passage, we can infer that whether you are rich depends on .

A.how much money you have had B.how you feel about your life

C.how you have helped others D.what job you are doing

【4】The writer left the muddy prints of small scandals on the floor for a while to .

A.show her husband that someone had come B.remind her that she had helped two children

C.show that she was a kind-hearted woman D.remind her how rich she was

25、Musical for the new era

  Some of the world’s most famous movies, like The Sound of Music（《音乐之声》）and Singin’ in the Rain(《雨中曲》), are musicals. These are both very old movies, though. It seemed as if musicals had gone out of fashion.

But La La Land, a new musical by US director Damien Chazelle, 32, had made the genre(类型) popular again. “Brilliantly written and directed, La La Land gives movie musicals life in the 21st century,” Peter Travers wrote for Rolling Stone.

  Starring US actor Ryan Gosling, 36, and actress Emma Stone, 28, the movie was released in Chinese mainland on Feb14. Set in the colorful world of Hollywood’s film and music scene, the two characters-a jazz musician and an actress-sing and dance their way to love.

  It has made history as the first film to win seven Golden Globe(金球奖) awards. It has also been nominated(提名) for a record-equaling 14 Oscars.

Other popular movies of today are often about violence(暴力),war, drugs(毒品) or politics. Thanks to Chazelle’s creative style, original music and wonderful location(地点), La La Land has a light feel that will put you in a good mood.

The opening scene, when hundreds of people in a traffic jam start singing , “will be studied and swooned(着迷) over for years to come,” according to Travers. “The very fact that it doesn’t have a strong political message, but is still good enough to win awards, is what makes La La Land so unusual,” Nicholas Barber, wrote for the BBC. “It is intimate(亲切的) and personal and magical.”

【1】What does Peter Travers think of La La Land?

A. It is better than The Sound of Music.

B. Its genre is out of fashion.

C. It is not a good story.

D. It makes musicals popular again.

【2】Which of the following is NOT true about La La Land?

A. It was directed by a 32-year-old US director.

B. It starred US actor Ryan Gosling and actress Emma Stone.

C. It’s a love story about a jazz musician and an actress.

D. It has won seven Golden Globe and 14 Oscars.

【3】La La Land contains_______.

A. original music   B. war scenes

C. violent scenes   D. a strong political message

【4】According to Nicholas Barber, La La Land ________.

A. is a very good movie   B. has an impressive opening scene

C. lacks magic and personality   D. needs strong political message

26、Jay Kohl, an American student, posted an online advertisement two weeks ago searching for a Chinese family to stay with so that he can learn the language and culture.

"I'm a clean, non-smoking, and warm-hearted American man looking for a homestay in the Wudaokou area to improve my Chinese language skills,” he wrote. "I'm willing to offer help with English tutoring(家教)and even can help you with applying for foreign universities.”

27、   I was in the seventh grade, and we had moved to New Jersey in November. By then, everyone already had had their own friends, and no one wanted to talk to a new girl. To make things worse, they put me in "Section L". I found out later that everyone called Section L "Loserville". It was sort of an open secret that it was the section for troublemakers and not-so-smart kids. When I found out, I wanted to scream. I had always been a good student and had amazing friends, and now everyone thought I was a loser!

I did text my friends in Illinois almost every night, especially my best friend, Ana. At first my friends wanted to hear all about it. But then some stopped texting back once I said something about how miserable (痛苦的) I was. One night when I was texting with Ana, I complained about another friend who had just done that. Ana's texts came really fast for the next few minutes and they surprised me. She said that she was tired of hearing about how bad everything was in New Jersey, too. She said she did not want to hurt my feelings, but that I needed to stop feeling so sorry for myself all the time, and I had to try to make things better.

The next day, I thought a lot about what Ana had said. She was right!

I wish I could say that everything changed overnight after that, but it didn't, I was still stuck in "Loserville", and some people were still mean (苛刻) to me, even though I tried to just stay out of their way.

But what did change was me-I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and did something about making friends. I signed up to make sets for the school play. I met a lot of new people there, and suddenly I had friends to say hi to in the halls!

I still miss Illinois sometimes, but life in New Jersey isn't so hard any more. Even though I couldn't change my situation, I could change my attitude-and that made all the difference.

【1】"Loserville" is a section for ________.

A.smart students B.low achievers C.class leaders D.new comers

【2】The writer complained all the time in the new environment because ________.

A.Ana didn't text back to her B.she was a good student

C.her friends hurt her feelings D.she was unfairly treated

【3】What made a difference in changing the situation?

A.She managed to go back to Illinois. B.She ended the friendship with Ana.

C.She began to make friends with others. D.She fought back with her classmates.

【4】What's the best title for the passage?

A.Friends Forever B.Say Goodbye to "Loserville"

C.An Incident at School D.Unhappiness in "Loserville"

28、Power in the Path

Have you ever taken a bike ride in the sun? It might make your ride a little 【1】 (更热) , but a cycle path in a sunny area can be a good thing. In fact, in the Netherlands, one company decided to build a cycle path that can create energy using the sun.

In the town of Krommenie, there's a cycle path of 【2】 (七十) meters with solar panels(太阳能电池板) in it. These panels get light from the sun. They then use that light to produce electricity, which is used for street lights and so on. In its first year, enough energy can be 【3】 (提供) for one house for a whole year!

Developers are still doing research. They make sure path is strong enough for buses and 【4】 (卡车) to drive over it. They must also make sure the path isn’t too 【5】 (平滑的) because that could make people fall over 【6】 (容易地). This test path must be just right before this type of path can be built in other places.

In 【7】 (另一个) Dutch town, Eindhoven, there is a cycle path that uses solar energy to make art. The path, which opened in 2014, is made up of thousands of tiny lights that get the light 【8】 (在……期间) the day and give off light at night. From above, these lights look like the famous painting The Starry Night by Dutch 【9】 (艺术家) Vincent van Gogh. This one-kilometer path is to honor Vincent van Gogh, who lived in this area from 1883 to 1885. It’s a beautiful and creative way of using the power of the sun, and the path now 【10】 (接待) many visitors.

29、Friendship, which you think may have lost, will come back amazingly. I had a best friend_______the age of 7. Two years later, her family moved to England. Before she left, she gave me a similar bracelet(手镯)to______. She said it was like our friendship. She also told me to be______ with it and remember our friendship.

Years passed, ______ I never saw her. I took the bracelet off, because I thought she might have forgotten me.

In the conversation, she found I wasn't______the bracelet she gave me, so she asked why. I explained the ____with patience. Then she said, “I promised you that I would come back, so here I am today.
