24、Connie Talbot was born on November 20th, 2000. She is an English child singer from Streetly, West Midlands. She is best known for being on “Britain’s Got Talent”（《英国达人》）when she was just six. She has been singing since she was 19 months old. The song she is most known for is Somewhere over the Rainbow. And now she is touring the country with the UK’s biggest children’s choir—Young Voices.

Do you know what the Young Voices Tour is? Well, it’s a great event for children. It is great for them to sing on a big stage with thousands of other children. Everyone waits for the parents to arrive in the evening to watch the children put on a great show. There is so much fun. When the lights turn on, everyone sings together at the same time as one. It’s so loud and powerful(有力的). Connie loves looking around at the choir and seeing everyone so happy when she was performing.

“We’ve heard you got a new Guinness world record!” I asked her. “Yes! I am very proud. It was amazing to get the Guinness world record for the biggest choir at the back of a singer. I am glad to share that world record with more than 6000 other children present that day,” she answered.

25、   It has been described as art by some people, but to others it’s an ugly part of modern life.

What is it? Graffiti (涂鸦), of course. Look around cities in the UK today and you can see graffiti on buildings, walls, doors and even on buses or trains that have stayed in one place for too long. But where modern technology creates a problem, it also finds a way to deal with it. Last week, The Weekend West was shown around the factory of a small but successful company (公司), Hubdean.

Hubdean’s achievement is some special paints which are graffiti-resistant. How do they work? It couldn’t be simpler. Take any graffiti-covered surface. First, a treatment called Agproclear is used. Then, using a very hot pressure jet (压力喷嘴), this treatment is taken away and the graffiti disappears at the same time. Now you have a clean wall. But before this clean wall can be painted on by graffiti lovers, a new product, Agproshield, is used. This paint has a special surface which gives it two important advantages. Firstly, spray paint (喷雾颜料) won’t stick to the surface very well, and secondly, the whole surface can be cleaned very easily, just using water. Once the surface is painted, no specialist equipment (设备) is needed to keep the area clean and graffiti-free.

Not surprisingly, Hubdean’s products are used by both local governments and private companies all over the UK, and now orders are being received from around the world. This brings the company a problem, however. Can they increase production to satisfy the needs? Of course, they can build a second factory or work with a large international company to make their products. The future is looking good for Hubdean!

【1】What does the underlined word “graffiti-resistant” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A.Painting graffiti. B.Keeping graffiti. C.Preventing graffiti. D.Changing graffiti.

【2】When should Agproshield be used?

A.Before Agproclear is used. B.When the wall is still clean.

C.When Agproclear doesn’t work. D.After graffiti is painted on the wall.

【3】What can we learn about Hubdean?

A.There is a good market for its products.

B.A large company is going to buy its products.

C.It is developing more new and better products.

D.Most of its business comes from private companies.

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

A.Is Hubdean successful? B.Is graffiti art? Of course not!

C.Hubdean a high-tech company? D.Graffiti a problem? Just wash it off!

26、   Whether you’re looking for things at the Natural History Museum or taking a trip of discovery at the Science Museum, there are a host of top museums in London for families. Most London museums offer activities to children. Take your pick in London. Here are some:

A. at least &29 B. at least &14.5 C. at least &21.75 D. at least & 36.25

27、   Have you ever noticed the black and white bars on a book？Do you know what they are used for?

They are bar-codes（条形码）used in most products. If you go to a supermarket，you can see almost every product with a bar-code on it. Bar-codes have information about the product, such as name and production date.It's an easy and convenient way to know about the products. Just scan the bar-code and everything is clear.

The first use of a bar-code in a supermarket checkout system was on a pack of American Wrigley Company chewing gum in 1974.Beyond supermarkets, bar-codes are needed everywhere:for renting cars, for luggage checks on a plane, for parcels(包裹) you send. Life would be rather difficult without bar-codes.Most of our things would get lost in the post.

Bar-codes change as well.Bar-codes in the past were 1-D(one-dimensional空间), but now there are 2-D bar-codes,such as QR code.Since 2009, QR has been used on Chinese train tickets. People can enter stadiums,cinemas and theaters by holding certain types of bar-codes.

With these small codes, life is getting much easier for us.

If you find these bar-code things boring, a bar-code building might be more up your street. In St Petersburg, Russia, there is a building designed like a bar-code.It looks strange, but it's actually a shopping mall. There are games too. Bar-code Monsters is a mobile phone game. You have to scan bar-codes and find the monsters!

【1】Bar-codes were first used in ________.

A.1974 in the UK B.1974 in the US C.2009 in China D.2009 in Russia

【2】The underlined word “scan”might mean “________” in Chinese.

A.复印 B.展示 C.描写 D.扫描

【3】From Paragraph 3 and 4, we can learn that ________.

A.bar-codes are very useful in our daily life B.our things will get lost without bar-codes

C.bar-codes make our life rather difficult D.we can’t live without bar-codes

【4】Which of the following is NOT true about the bar-code building?

A.It looks like a bar-code. B.It’s in St Petersburg, Russia.

C.It’s used as a shopping mall. D.Its name is Bar-code Monsters.

【5】The best title of this passage is________.

A.From 1-D Bar-codes to 2-D Bar-codes B.Why Bar-codes are Black and White

C.Small Codes that Make a Big Difference D.What if the World Doesn’t Have a Bar-code

28、   Henry was a kind, good boy. His father was dead, and his mother was very poor. He had a little sister about 2 years old. He wanted to help his mother because she could not a【1】 earn(挣) enough money to buy food for his little family.

One day a man gave him a dollar for r【2】 the pocketbook which he had lost. Henry could have kept the pocketbook because no one saw him when he found it. But his mother had taught him to be h【3】, and never to keep what did not belong to him. So he gave the pocketbook back to the man.

The first day he c【8】 over 50 cents, which he gave to his mother to buy food with. When he gave her the money, she cried with joy and said, “You are a d【9】, good boy, Henry. I didn’t know how I could earn enough to buy bread, but now I think we can m【10】 to get along quite well.”
