24、The year of the Dragon will begin on February 10, 2024. The Dragon is the fifth sign of the Chinese Zodiac (生肖). Dragons are not real animals. Chinese dragons can fly in the sky or swim in the sea. In stories, dragons rule over water, rainfall, wind and flood.

The Chinese dragon is a symbol of strength and good luck. The emperors of ancient China loved dragons. Their clothes were covered with pictures of yellow dragons. The dragon is very important in Chinese culture. We Chinese people are proud to call ourselves “the descendants (传人) of the dragon”. A number of Chinese sayings refer to dragons. For example, “Hoping one’s child will become a dragon”, which means hoping he or she will be successful.

Unlike in China, dragons are seen differently in Western countries. Western dragons often look like dinosaurs. They breathe fire and catch people. It is a common fairy tale about a man who becomes a hero after killing a dragon and saving a princess. In the English movie How to Train Your Dragon (《 驯龙记》), a little boy becomes much braver by killing some bad dragons. In one of the Harry Potter stories, Harry Potter has to fight against a scary dragon and get back the golden egg from its nest.

Because of this, some Chinese experts have suggested changing the English word “Dragon” into its pinyin “Long”. They believe the name “Dragon” makes Western people think badly about China. But some don’t agree. They think Chinese people can look after their own culture. Many Western people already know the differences between Chinese dragons and Western ones.

【1】Which power of dragons is NOT mentioned in Chinese stories?

A．They can fly in the sky.

B．They can swim in the sea.

C．They can rule water and wind.

D．They can catch and eat people.

【2】What does the sentence “Hoping one’s child will become a dragon” in Paragraph 2 mean in Chinese?

A．龙马精神

【3】Who can be called as “a hero” in Western fairy tales?

A．A man who can train a dog.

B．A man who can get an egg.

C．A man who can breathe fire.

D．A man who can kill a dragon.

【4】According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A．There are many Chinese sayings about dragons.

B．The Dragon is the first sign of the Chinese Zodiac.

C．Harry Potter becomes much braver by killing some bad dragons.

D．Emperors in China liked wearing clothes with red dragon pictures.

【5】Why do Chinese experts suggest changing “Dragon” into Chinese pinyin “Long”?

A．Because Chinese are proud of their own pinyin.

B．Because dragon makes Western people think highly of China.

C．Because Western people know nothing about Chinese culture.

D．Because “Dragon” in Western countries doesn’t carry the same cultural meanings as in China.

26、Watson entered Mr. Smith’s office. The boss was a hard man. He fired people who didn’t do well without giving them a second chance.

“Watson,” said Mr. Smith, “this past year your department hasn’t earned money. We’re going to drop that department. It’s finished. I’m sorry, ______________.’’ “But, sir — if I just had a little more time. For the moment I need the job to keep my son at Riverside School.”

“What’s that!” said the boss. “Riverside! I didn’t know you had a boy there. That’s an expensive school for a man with your salary.”

“I know, sir. But he likes it there so much! He’s a star athlete and the best boxer in the school. The boys call him Champ there.”

The boss sat seriously still for a long time — a faraway (恍惚的) look in his eyes. Then, suddenly, he said, “We’ve got to close your department, Watson. But you’ll take over a new job in another department. It means longer hours — maybe more pay. Now get out. You’re here for life.”

Watson got out, with surprise on his face. Then the boss took a letter from the top drawer of his desk. It was Herbie’s last letter from Riverside School — written a few days before he died. He had read it over and over again with sick pain. The letter read:

I can’t say the boys here are any nicer to me than the others were. I guess it’s the same everywhere when you're a cripple (跛脚的人). But don’t worry about me, Dad. And there’s one boy here who is really great. He’s a track star and boxing champ (冠军) and just tops in chemistry. The boys call him Champ. He made them stop throwing my books around. And he knocked a boy down who hit me. He is the best friend I ever had. Dad, I am so grateful to him, when I grow up, I want to do something for Champ. Something big — that he won’t even know about.

Your son,

Herbie

27、When you’re having a hard time with something, it’s natural to turn to others for help. Getting help sounds simple, but it’s not always easy to do. Sometimes certain beliefs or ways of thinking can make it hard to ask for help. Here are some kinds of attitudes that can stand in the way and ideas on how to get past them.

Some people believe that needing help is a sign of weakness. Actually, it’s a sign of strength, not weakness. You know what you need and you shouldn’t be afraid to reach out for it. Once a boy told me he wanted to ask his coach how to improve his basketball skills, but he was afraid that his coach might think he shouldn’t be on the team. In fact, when he asked his coach for help, his coach thought he was practicing hard.

Some other people think they don’t deserve(应该得到) help or support. Everyone needs help now and then. Accepting help can strengthen friendships and relationships. Everyone feels good when they can support a friend. For example, if you want to find out how Katy solves problems with her parents, you should ask Katy if she has time to talk and tell her how important her viewpoint is, instead of worrying that Katy is too busy to help you. When you ask for help, choose someone who listens and cares, not someone who judges or criticizes you. If you get refused, it's not because of you, but the other person. So tell yourself: If Katy says no, she might not be ready to talk about her own experiences.

Another wrong attitude is waiting for someone else to make the first move. It’s not always easy for other people to see when you need help. Maybe you’re putting on a cheerful face to hide the problem. Don’t wait for someone to read your mind. You have to ask.

Because it can be hard to reach out for help, don't hesitate(犹豫) to offer support to another person if you think he or she needs it. Giving and receiving help are great life skills to learn. They help us improve our abilities to understand other people.

【1】In Paragraph 2, the boy was afraid to ask his coach for help because ________.

A．his coach criticized him before

B．his coach was too busy to help him

C．he wasn’t practicing as hard as other players

D．he thought it would show he was a weak player

【2】What should you do if you need help?

A．Be supportive to other people first.

B．Be active to find a caring person to talk to.

C．Try to make your friends notice what you need.

D．Put on a happy face to avoid worrying other people.

【3】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A．Asking for Help: Everyone’s Natural Ability

B．Asking for Help: Getting Past Improper Attitudes

C．Giving and Receiving Help: Great Skills to Learn

D．Giving and Receiving Help: Strengthening Relationships

28、   There are some expressions(表达方式) about colours. They are very interesting. If someone 【1】(want) a cup of “black coffee”, that will mean he or she wants coffee without milk, while “white coffee” means coffee with milk. “A green hand” means someone is not good at 【2】(do) something.

Maybe you 【3】(hear) of the expression “a black sheep” ever. It refers to(指) a person who behaves badly and often causes trouble. For example, Tom doesn’t listen to teachers and school rules 【4】(break) by him often, so he is called a black sheep.

Then what does “a white lie” mean? It means a lie with a good will(意愿). For example, someone gives you a present you dislike, but you don’t want 【5】(hurt) him, so you say, “That’s really nice. I like it very much.”

If you have interest, you can spend some free time 【6】(search) for expressions about colours online for yourself.
