24、The ants and the grasshopper(蝗虫)lived in the same big field. The ants always worked hard, and tried to prepare and harvest enough food for winter.

Their happy neighbor, the grasshopper, couldn’t understand them. He just kept singing. One winter day, the ants were busy spreading their grain(谷物)in the sun to dry. The grasshopper was nearly dying of hunger, so he went to the ants to ask for some food.

“Good day to you, kind neighbor,” said the grasshopper. “Won’t you lend me a little food? I will certainly repay(偿还)you before this time next year.” “Why don’t you have any food of your own?” asked an old ant. “There was a lot of food in the big field all summer. What did you do?”

“Oh,” said the grasshopper, forgetting his hunger, “I sang all day long, and all night long.” “Well, then,” said the ant, “If you can sing all summer, you should dance all winter.” And the old ant went back to her work, singing the ant song, “We ants never borrow; we ants never lend.”

25、Height is just one of the thousands of features your genes (基因) decide. In fact, because you have two parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent. If both, your parents are tall, then most probably you will be tall, too. If you have questions about how tall you’re going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find it out.

But genes don’t decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full potential (潜力). Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height.

No doubt you’re wondering how fast you should grow. It depends. There’s no perfect or right answer. Generally speaking, kids grow about two inches (six centimeters) a year between age three and the time when they start puberty.

Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years. Two centimeters here and two inches there are not nearly as important as the height you’re at now. How you’ve been growing up to this point and what other changes your body may be going through are important.

Don’t be nervous if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time. Everyone has a growth peal (高峰) during puberty. The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys. But it can be earlier and later, between 6 and 13 for girls and 7 and 15 for boys.

You’ll usually begin to notice that you’re growing faster about a year after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty.

【1】If you want to know how tall you will grow, ________.

A．you should have enough exercise

B．you can ask your doctor for help

C．you should have a healthy diet

D．you can record your growth during puberty

【2】After reading this passage, we can learn ________.

A．how good it is to be a doctor

【3】The underlined word “puberty” means ________ in Chinese.

A．童年时期

B．婴幼儿时期

D．生长发育期

【4】Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?

B．Girls’ age for starting puberty is usually earlier than boys’.

27、    Gever is a computer scientist from California. In 2005, he started a summer program for children called Tinkering School. The idea was that children can learn important skills for life by building things together. Gever and his team help the children  to think big and create plans for new things they want to build. Children have made fantastic things since the school started. They have made a rope bridge, tree houses, wooden motorbikes and boats.

At Tinkering School, children get all kinds of materials like wood, metal, plastic, nails and ropes. They get lots of real tools too, such as knives, hammers(锤子) and power drills(电钻). Tinkering School has been around for many years now, but nobody has ever had a serious injury in all those years. This is because there are strict health and safety rules they must follow. The children always learn how to use the tools safely and they must wear the right clothing and protection at all times.

Gever’s ideas have worked very well. A lot of children have gone to his summer schools over the years. In 2011, Gever decided to create a ‘real’ school, called Brightworks, in San Francisco. The school is very small —it only has 20 students aged 6 to 13. Brightworks is based on the same principles(理念) as Tinkering School.

Since it started, Brightworks has been written about a lot. Most of those articles have been very positive(积极的). They have praised the quality of the school. They have found the children are more active than at many other schools. But there have also been critical (批评的) voices. Some people have said that children are not learning enough at Brightworks. They feel that students and teachers are just ‘playing around’ all the time.

The students at Brightworks seem to love their school. We spoke to 12-year-old Tina Cooper. She has been a student at the school since last October. “Since I started here. I’ve never sat in a ‘normal’ class with a teacher,” she told us. “But it’s been a very exciting experience. I’ve worked hard at my new school for eight months now, and there hasn’t been one single moment when I found it boring.”

【1】Which can best describe Tinkering School or Brightworks?

A．A place you can walk around freely.

B．A space with new ideas and practice.

C．A factory full of materials and tools.

D．A family you will never leave behind.

【2】Gever’s principle on education is to ________.

A．train children to follow strict rules

B．provide children with famous schools

C．help children create new fantastic plastic things

D．lead children to learn by doing hands-on activities

【3】About safety at Tinkering School, we know that ________.

A．the school is not safe enough for kids

B．children are taught how to protect themselves

C．children have never had an accident or injury

D．there isn’t any safety information mentioned there

【4】From the last two paragraphs, we can infer that ________.

A．Brightworks has influenced students like Tina

B．critical voices brought bad results to the school

C．there hasn’t been one single boring moment for all

D．the students there often stand in a class with a teacher

【5】The author’s writing purpose is probably to ________ .

A．choose the best schools for parents

B．let the readers listen to different voices

C．praise Gever’s thoughts about education

D．draw much attention to Gever’s school

28、   Being humble (谦以待人)

When we stay with others, there are some questions to be considered. Do you talk when you【1】 listen? Are you used to thinking you’re always right and everyone else is 【2】? Do you try your best to win even if it hurts others?

If the answer to each 【3】 is yes, then you’re not very humble. That will hurt you over time if you don’t 【4】 your ways. So, it’s best if you learn to be more humble.

You may know many things. You may also have special talents and skills. Being humble means that you don’t show off in public,【5】you’re good at many things.

Humble people know 【6】 they’re able and not able to do. They also know others may be smarter than them and they should【7】from them. That’s the best way they think to get along 【8】 others.

Humble people know mistakes do happen. When they make 【9】 mistake, they’ll admit(承认) and say sorry. They won’t try to cover it up. They know that 【10】 is perfect. Because of that, they accept people for who they are.

Humble people appreciate (感激) what they have. They’re helpful and looking forward to learning from others. They know it’s good to be humble.
