24、 There are several ways you can find out about the countries and places you wish to visit. You can talk to your friends who travelled to places, you can go and see a colour film about them, or you can read travel books.
It seems that there are three kinds of travel books. The first kind is those which give a personal, subjective (主观的) idea of travels which the writer has got himself. These books can be useful if the writers share their travelling experiences with others. The second kind is those books which give objective (客观的) information of things to be done and seen. If a cultured person has written such a book about the facts of a place, then it is more useful. The third kind is those books which are called “a guide” to some place or others. If they are good, they will describe and explain the place in detail. Like the first kind, they can be interesting and exciting. But their main purpose is to help the reader plan his travel in the most practical way.
Whatever kind of travel books you choose, you must make sure that the book does not describe everything as interesting, exciting or fantastic. You must also keep an open eye on its date of publication (出版) because travel is a very practical matter and many things change quickly in the 21st century. Finally, you should make sure that it's easy to find the useful information for your travel.
【1】This passage was written to introduce ________.
A.travel maps B.travel books
C.travel films D.travel places
【2】The writer of the first kind of travel books gave his ideas after he ________.
A.travelled B.read books C.watched films D.surfed the Internet
【3】The underlined phrase “a cultured person” means a person with ________.

C.a lot of experience D.a lot of money
【4】The date of publication must be noticed because ________.
A.the places of travel books may be different
B.the writers of travel books may be different
C.the information in travel books is always the same
D.the information in travel books is always changing.
【5】According to the passage, it is best to read _______ before travelling to a place of interest.

B.the second kind of travel books
C.the third kind of travel books

25、In the most southern part of our planet, there's a place that's covered with snow and ice all year round. But it has the clearest and cleanest air. Amazingly, in this place, the sun sometimes hangs even in the midnight sky. This place is Antarctica (南极洲): the coldest, windiest and harshest (恶劣的) place on the Earth.
As the world's least-known place, Antarctica is of great interest to scientists around the world. During 30 years, China has sent many scientists to Antarctica. They mostly look for the resources under the icy land and do research about climate change and marine (海洋的) biology.
Antarctica is a place with fantastic views. However, life there is very hard. Food is one of the biggest problems. Frozen food which can be heated easily is people's daily food. Fresh vegetables are hard to grow in the cold weather.
Sleep is also difficult. In Antarctica, summer lasts from November to March. During this period, Antarctica points to the sun and receives sunlight 24 hours a day. In order to get some sleep, scientists cover the windows with black plastic cloth to create "night".
Working in Antarctica is dangerous, especially when meeting gale-force (七级以上的) winds. They can easily blow people away. So there are ropes that connect buildings of some research stations. People can hold these ropes to keep their balance in forceful winds.
What's more, communicating with others is difficult. Without cables and Internet in some research stations, two-way radios are the only tools to communicate. If people want to say hello to friends and relatives, they can use satellite phones.
Although it is challenging to work in Antarctica, scientists' passion to learn about this mysterious land will never end. It is hopeful that one day they will step every corner of this icy land.
【1】 From the passage, we learn that Antarctica_______.
A. is covered with water
B. rains heavily from time to time
C. has little wind most of the time
D. has sunshine during every night for 5 months
【2】Scientists from China go to Antarctica to _______.
A. find out ways to control water pollution
B. research climate change and marine biology
C. grow plants and vegetables in special condition
D. stop the hunters from killing the marine life
【3】In order to sleep well in Antarctica, the scientists have to __________.
A. wear more clothes to keep warm
B. cover the windows with black plastic cloth
C. connect research stations with ropes
D. eat more fried and canned vegetables
【4】We can replace (替换) the underlined word ‘passion’ in the last paragraph with _____.
A. strong love
B. full preparation
C. pleasant introduction
D. amazing imagination
【5】The passage is mainly about__________.
A. views of Antarctica
B. exploring(探索) Antarctica
C. how to survive in Antarctica
D. climate changes of Antarctica
26、We spend hours, days and years of our lives in education. But how perfect do you think your school is? Imagine you could design(设计) your ideal(理想的) school. What would it be like? We wanted to find out what teenagers around the world thought. Here is some designing from four children of different countries.
Ma, China
My dream school would have an Olympicsize swimming pool, two football pitches and a golf course. It would also have a cinema, a gym, a restaurant and a shopping centre. My school has none of these and I think there should be more enjoyable things for pupils to do while they are studying.
Sonia, Italy
I'd like a room where we can go and relax and play computer games and chat with friends. Some older pupils in the school have this but I think there should be a place for everyone to go when they want to switch off (转换注意力) from the lessons.
Richard, USA
I think it would be great to have a day off every week, as well as the weekend. If that day was a Friday or a Monday, we would have a long weekend every week. What fun! I also think school should start later, at about 10 o'clock, and finish earlier. We spend a lot of time at school doing nothing at all. I'm sure we could learn just as much in fewer hours.
Rebecca, Australia
My dream school would be big and roomy with a computer for every person in the school. I'd also like to have a music room where we can just go and play instruments when we want. We need a recording studio, too. I hope that teachers can respect(尊重) our opinions.
【1】Ma thinks his dream school should provide ________ for students.
A.more enjoyable things
B.a comfortable computer room

27、As a young boy, I sometimes traveled the country roads with my dad. He was a rural mail carrier. Driving through the countryside was always an adventure: There were animals to see, people to visit, and especially chocolate cookies if you knew where to stop, and Dad did.
One lady had no mailbox, so Dad took the mail into her house every day because she was nearly blind. Once inside, he read her mail and helped her pay her bills.
Mailboxes were sometimes used for other things. One note left in a mailbox read, "Nat, take these eggs to Marian. She’s baking a cake and doesn’t have any eggs. "A young girl wrote letters but had no stamps, so Dad paid for the stamps. One businessman used to leave large amounts of cash in his mailbox for Dad to take to the bank.
Later, father died. As I drove home, I noticed two green and red mailboxes made by father were still on each side of Main Street. Each box had a long narrow hole at the top with white lettering: SANTA CLAUS, NORTH POLE. For years children had dropped letters to Santa through those holes.
When I saw Frank Townsend, Dad's postmaster and great friend for many years. He asked, " What are we going to do about the letters this Christmas?"
“The letters?”
“I guess you never knew.”
"Knew what?”
Remember, when you were a kid and you used to put your letters to Santa in those green and red boxes on Main Street? It was your dad who answered all those letters every year.”
I just sat there with tears in my eyes. It wasn’t hard for me to imagine Dad sitting at the old table in our basement reading those letters and answering each one. I have since spoken with several of the people who received Christmas letters during their childhood, and they told me how amazed they were that Santa had known so much about their homes and families.
For me, just knowing that story about my father was the gift of a lifetime.
【1】It can be inferred (推断) from the passage that the writer regarded his travels with Dad as________.
A. great chances to help other people B. happy occasions to play with animals
C. exciting experiences with a lot of fun D. good opportunities to enjoy chocolate cookies 9)
【2】The writer provides the detail about the businessman to show that
A. Dad had a strong sense of duty B. Dad was an honest and dependable man
C. Dad had a strong sense of respect D. Dad was a kind and generous man
【3】What surprised the children most when they received letters in reply from Santa Claus every year?
A. Santa Claus lived alone in the cold North Pole.
B. Santa Claus answered all their letters every year.
C. Santa Claus had unique(独一无二的) mailboxes for the children.
D. Santa Claus had so much information about their families

29、No One Words but My Own
The classroom was full of those of us who wanted to work on the school newspaper.I didn't write a lot but working on the paper sounded like fun.I _____ the idea of being a reporter interviewing my friends and covering middle school event.
To be chosen,we had to turn in an example of our _____.I wrote an article about the joys of summer,and showed it to my father,a talent poet.He read it and frowned(皱眉).

No surprise—his version(版本) was _____.He had a gift for language.It was so much better than my piece that I turned in his version instead of mine.
“Welcome to the Dundee School News,”my teacher said to me.But before I could be _____ about the news,he added,“Based on that excellent article you wrote about summer,I expect you to write a personal opinion article every week for the second page of the paper.” I was so surprised!I was unable to write at that level,but I couldn't tell the _____ to the teacher,and I couldn't ask my father for help,either.That term working on the paper was really painful.And my teacher clearly expressed his _____.

I couldn't,because at that age,I didn't have my father's ability and experience as a writer.Week after week,I tried hard,but my writing never _____ the level of the first article.
At last,to my total shame,another student took my place.I _____ that my father rewrote my first article himself,instead of simply trying to help me to improve it.But in my heart I knew it was my fault(错误) because I allowed him to do it.
Later,I did become a successful writer on my own.Looking back,I realized that the pain and shame of that school experience had a ______ side.It taught me to depend on myself and be myself.So every day,I try to use my own words,find my own style and be my own best self.It feels great.
