24、Have you ever been swimming in a pond, stream, or lake and had a leech(水蛭) stick on you? You probably shouted and tried to force it away as fast as you could. But leeches aren’t really sick, and sometimes they can save lives.

In ancient Egypt and later medieval(中世纪) Europe, doctors put leeches on patients. They believed that the spineless wormlike living things can cure all kinds of illnesses by sucking(吮吸) a patient’s blood. In Europe and in the United States, millions of leeches were used throughout the 1800s. Doctors used leeches to treat a number of illnesses, from obesity to headaches. People soon learned that leeches could not cure most diseases and were not a good treatment for patients. However in 1985, a Harvard University doctor changed people’s thinking once again. He was trying to reattach(重新接上) a patient’s ear, which had been cut off. He had trouble reconnecting the veins because the patient’s blood kept clotting(凝). He used a leech to draw out the blood and saved the ear.

Since then, leeches have often been used in surgery where body parts are reattached. During surgery, a leech is placed on the area where the surgeon does not want the blood to pool and clot. Then the leech produces a thing that keeps the veins(静脉) open and stops the blood from clotting. The leech sucks up excess blood, allowing fresh blood to flow, which helps the patient get well.

Some people are scared to death at the thought of having a blood sucking thing attached to them. But why not welcome a leech if it can save your life?

【1】What is the passage mostly about?

A．Patient’s interest in leeches.

B．How and where leeches live.

C．The medical uses of leeches.

D．Leeches in ancient medicine.

【2】When were leeches first used?

A．In medieval Europe.

B．In ancient Egypt.

C．In 1985 by a Harvard University doctor.

D．In the 1800s in Europe and in the United States.

【3】When a leech is placed on a patient, which one happens first?

A．The leech produces a thing.

B．The patient’s veins open.

C．The patient’s blood flow faster

D．The leech sucks up excess blood.

【4】Why did a doctor in 1985 decide to try using leeches?

A．He needed a way to close the wound.

B．He wanted to change people’s thought.

C．He believed in the mystery of nature.

D．He needed to keep blood from clotting

25、

An unusual school, Notch Peak Elementary, has just one student and only one teacher. The only student is Corinne Gaby. Her teacher is Lisa Geary. Corrine has no brothers or sisters and lives with her parents on a large farm in a mountainous area.

The school is based on the idea that every child has the right to a public education-no matter where that child lives. But the closest public school is at least a one-and-a-half hour drive away. And that road is not considered safely passable during the winter.

A new, separate school was not built. Instead, a classroom area was created on the second floor of a horse barn (马厩). Large windows keep the room bright, and a wood stove provides heat.

Several teachers were considered for this unusual teaching situation. The first lasted a year. The next left after two. Then came Lisa Geary. She says her first year was “harder than expected.” She faced lonely surroundings and severe weather.

“It wasn't easy in the beginning Corinne was strong-headed, and it was tough.” Geary said she became discouraged with their lack of progress .At first, she said it seemed like Corinne did not want to be taught. “We really, really struggled that first year, so it wasn't fun for me as a teacher who is waiting for her cup to be fled up.” Corinne agrees that the start of teaching was difficult.

But over time, Corinne said Geary's teaching methods changed her mind about the unusual one-on-one learning situation. “Now in fifth grade and fourth grade, Ms. Geary and I have seen lots of changes in ourselves.” Corinne says Geary's teaching has taught her far more than just what happens in the classroom.

Geary adds that in every teaching situation, the relationship between teacher and student is very important. She says that her relationship with Corinne is now so close, the two are like family.

Corinne agrees that the two have a much deeper connection than most students and teachers. She describes Geary as the “greatest teacher in the galaxy.”

The two also spend a lot of time together outside the classroom. Sometimes Corinne even gets to sleep over at her teacher's house, and they both love taking care of the animals on the farm.

A.she had to drive at least one and a half hours to get back home

【3】How does Corinne's feeling change to Geary?

A.Excited-happy. B.Afraid-glad. C.Difficult- close. D.Strange-satisfied.

A.“We are living together. We're just a family.”

B.“She is the teacher who is waiting to fill me up.”

C.“She gives me chances and she really believes in me.”

D.“It is she who has spent almost three years with me in the horse barn.”

27、People use their mouths for many things. They eat, talk, shout and sing. They smile and they kiss. In the English language, there are many expressions using the word “mouth”. But some of them are not so nice.

For example, if you say bad things about a person, the person mightprotestand say “Do not badmouth me.”

Sometimes, people say something to a friend or family member that they later regret because it hurts that person’s feelings. Or they tell the person something they were not supposed to tell.The speaker might say: “I really put my foot in my mouth this time.” If this should happen, the speaker might feel “down in the mouth.” In other words, he might feel sad for saying the wrong thing.

Another situation（情况）is when someone falsely claims （宣布）another person said something. The other person might protest: “I did not say that. Do not put words in my mouth.”

Meghan watched__________as the boys ___________ their old toys and games and put them together. Then she walked away. A few minutes later she came back with Lucy, her much-loved doll.
