24、It was Jennifer Williams’s mother who made her interested in books lifelong. As a librarian (图书管理员), she read to her three children every day. “Not until we went to preschool” Williams told vadogwood. com, a local news site. “Until we went to college.”

When Williams, now 54, became a teacher in Danville, Virginia, she wanted her students to fall in love with reading just as she had. But early on, she realized that some kids had little chance to develop reading habits.

“It’s very easy for teachers of young children to find out which kids read and who do not,” she said. “It’s clear at the end of the first day of school.” To Williams, the way to solve the problem was simple: Give kids books. In 2017, as part of a civil (市政的) event called Engage Danville, she gave away 900 used children’s books over three days. Most people would be satisfied with that.

“Anybody could do that,” she said. “I wanted to do something that’s going to go with my faith (信仰), my work rules, my everything.”

In order to realize her dream, she set a new goal for herself: Give away one million books. It sounds like an unreachable number, but as Williams posted on Facebook: “Don’t complain in the bedrooms if you aren’t willing to work hard out on the field.”

So she got to work, first by roping in friends to donate books or money to buy books. Before long, as news of Williams’ project spread, strangers started leaving boxes of books at her front door. As quickly as the books come in, Williams gives them to local schools—free of charge—and also gave away books to little free libraries around her city of 41000 just over the North Carolina border (边界). She also hosts a book club for people in the local jail (监狱).

In the four years, she’s been doing all this, the Book Lady, as Williams has come to be known, has given away more than 78, 000 books—only 922, 000 more to reach her goal. And she’s not slowing down. It’s too important for kids with few choices.

“Reading can take you anywhere,” she told a reporter. “You can travel in time and space. If you can read, you can learn almost anything.”

27、   In today’s society, every day may face some kinds of stress (压力) and difficulties from work, school or family. They can influence both our bodies and our minds (头脑). So learning how to deal with (对付) stress is very important for keeping healthy. Well, how do we reduce stress? In my opinion, the best ways are exercise and contacting with nature (亲近自然).

For example, we don’t have to go to a gym or spend much money on exercise. In fact, walking or riding to work is OK for exercise. The second way of dealing with stress is to make contact with nature.

Nature is very great and if you can make contact with her, you can enjoy the smell and the sight of green plants and then let you feel delighted.

Some of these activities can let you get exercise, but also you can enjoy the beauty of your garden every day. So, take my advice and start now if you meet some kinds of stress in your work or study. Good luck!

28、请认真阅读下面短文,并根据各题所给首字母的提示,写出一个合适的英语单词完整、正确的形式,使短文通顺。

Many Chinese people go abroad to travel, to study, and even to live on their own. People should learn about the cultures they visit because some of the cultures are very d【1】from ours. If you know them and understand them, it will help you a lot.

Talking about the weather and sports is a good way to s【2】 a conversation. But when you talk to westerners, you shouldn't ask their age because it is not p【3】. Also, you should not ask about how much money they make every month, not even with someone you know well. In p【4】 places like museums and libraries, you shouldn't eat or drink when others are q【5】 looking at art works or reading books. When you visit a western country and you want to give someone a small g【6】 or flowers, be careful to choose the right c【7】 of flowers. This is because in some countries white flowers are for the dead.  When you receive a gift from someone, r【8】 to write a thank you note to express your thankfulness.

29、   Once my mother told me a story about the antelope (羚羊) and the lion in Africa.
