25、
Do you know who was described as “superhuman” by the great inventor and astronomer Galileo? It was Archimedes who solved the king’s problem of the golden crown while taking a bath. He was perhaps one of the most outstanding scientists in the world. He was a mathematician, physicist, engineer, weapon designer and inventor. He was wise in philosophy, active in mathematics and physics. He was also recognized as one of the finest engineers of his time. He was born on the island of Sicily in the city of Syracuse around the year 287 BC and died in 212 BC.
Archimedes showed great love for mathematics. He made many discoveries. For example, he determined the exact value of pi. He invented and developed methods similar to calculus (微积分) and used them to find the area of a circle and an accurate estimation (估计值) of the value of pi.
Today he is regarded as one of the greatest mathematicians in history. Archimedes used his mathematical skills and talents to create useful inventions. One of his most famous inventions is called the Archimedes’ Screw. It was a device that could lift water to higher levels. One of its first uses was to pump water out from a leaking ship. It is still used today in some places to move water from low places to high places. This invention influenced Leonardo da Vinci as he worked on developing the functioning flying machine.
Can you imagine counting the sand in the universe? Archimedes once tried to calculate the number of sand grains in the universe. Obviously, it was impossible but it goes to show that he was too smart. His intellectual curiosity and achievements to mathematics, in general, would go on to encourage other mathematicians as well. Most of his achievements were by far ahead of his time. Archimedes was in deed a genius.
【1】What’s the main idea of paragraph 2?
A.A brief introduction to Archimedes.
B.Archimedes’ discoveries in maths.

26、Here are four letters to their headmasters from students in different places.
Li Xue, 14, from Jiangsu | I will give some suggestions about our school uniform. In our school, we have to wear school uniform every day. But the yellow and green sports uniform looks really dark and old. It can’t stand for young and lively spirit. We can add some red or orange color and make a new type of uniform. |
Liu Hua, 14,from Fujian | I have two suggestions for my headmaster. First, I think we should have more hobby classes in science, such as plane model making class and computer programming (编程)class. And second, I hope we can have more PE lessons or more time for physical exercise. |
Han Bo, 15 ,from Shanxi | I’d like to say thanks to my math teacher. About one week ago , I got a bad cold after playing basketball. My math teacher came to me after he knew about it. He took care of me until my parents came. I really want to thank him for that. |
Zhao Fei, 14,from Hebei | I want to talk about the possibility of personal classes. Now many middle schools are trying the “personal class” system. Students don’t have regular (普通的)classes in their schools. They can choose lessons they want to take. They don’t have to stay in one classroom all the time. I think it is more effective. And it is also good for exercise. |

27、 In the fall of 1985, I was a bright-eyed girl heading off to Harvard University, aiming at a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere. Twenty-one years later I am still a bright-eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell.
My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college at the age of 65. She was the first in our family to reach that goal. But one year after I started college, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.
Then I got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopted (领养的) and biological children. In 1999, we adopted our first son. To lay eyes on him was fantastic and very emotional. A year later came our second adopted boy. Then followed son No. 3. In 2003, 1 gave birth to another boy.
You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys under the age of 8! Our home was a complete zoo — a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college full-time, but I never gave up on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant taking as few as one class each semester.
The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit. But I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives.
In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college degree!
I am not special, just single-minded. It always struck me that when you're looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when you're in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won't arrive in your life on one day. It's a process. Remember: little steps add up to big dreams.
【1】What does the underlined word "occupied" in the fourth paragraph mean?
A.nervous
B.busy
C.attracted
D.confident
【2】Why did the author leave school in her second year of college?
A.She wanted to study by herself.
B.She got married and built a big family.
C.She suffered from serious illness.
D.She decided to look after her grandma.
【3】What can we learn about the author from Paragraphs 4 and 5?
A.Her family life was tiring yet she enjoyed it
B.She was tired of taking care of her children.
C.She wanted to remain a full-time housewife.
D.She was so confused that she couldn't make a correct choice.
【4】What does the author mostly want to tell us in the last paragraph?
A.Failure is the mother of success.
B.Little by little, one goes far.
C.Every coin has two sides.
D.Well begun, half done.

Besides the cosplay show, the students 【7】 (encourage) to write out some famous quotes (引述) from the books. As one quote said, “Working hard is important, 【8】 there is something that is more important: believing in yourself.” These classic lines encouraged the students to keep looking ahead.
