21、I have a rule for travel-never carry a map. I prefer to ask for direction.

Foreign visitors are often puzzled (困惑的) in Japan because most streets there don’t have names. In Japan, people use landmarks instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”

In the country of the American Midwest, usually there are not many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat. In many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”

People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map. They measure (测量) distance by telling time. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They don’t know.

People in Mexico never answer “I don’t know.” People in Yucatan think that “I don’t know” is not polite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A visitor can get very, very lost in Yucatan!

One thing will help you everywhere. You might not understand a person’s words, but maybe you can understand his or her body language. He or she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction. Go in that direction, and you may find the post office!

【1】What do you think the word “landmarks” means? It means ________.

A．street names

B．building names

C．hotels, markets and bus stops

D．buildings or places which are easily seen

【2】In which place do people tell distance by telling time?

A．Japan.

B．The American Midwest.

C．Los Angeles, California.

D．Mexico.

【3】Which of the following is wrong?

A．Travelers can learn about people’s customs (习俗) by asking questions about directions.

B．People in some places give directions in miles, but people in other places give directions by telling time.

C．A person’s body language can help you understand directions.

D．People in different places always give directions in the same way-they use street names.

22、Ways to Predict the Weather Without a Forecast

Most of us know about the weather from the weather report. However, we can know the weather by ourselves. It is a fun hobby, and it can also be a useful skill if you enjoy outdoor activities, such as hiking or camping. By learning what to look for, you can predict(预测) the weather.

▲Watch the Wind and Air.

Observe the direction(方向) of wind. Wind comes when air moves. Since weather moves in from the west, westerly winds bring good weather. Easterly winds suggest that the bad weather is coming toward you.

You can use grass or flower petals(花瓣) to decide the direction of the wind. Throw your grass or flower petals into the air and watch the direction of the wind.

▲Watch smoke from a fire.

The air pressure(压力) decides what direction the smoke will go. In high pressure high up in the sky, the smoke will go up into the air. If the pressure is low, it will be back down around the fire. If you see the smoke back down, bad weather is likely on the way.

▲Take a deep breath.

Close your eyes and smell the air. Smells become wet right before a storm, making them stronger. Before a storm, you should also notice a compost(堆肥) smell as plants release(释放) their waste. If you start to smell this, it likely means that a storm is coming.

【1】The underlined word “Observe” means ________.

A．have

B．play

C．watch

D．smell

【2】Which of the following is true?

A．The grass stands still in the wind.

B．The flower petals can’t tell us anything about the weather.

C．The air pressure is the same in all the places.

D．You can smell the air to know about the weather.

【3】The main idea is about _________.

A．the wind is strong

B．how to tell the weather

C．how to get home earlier

D．how to travel

23、   DNA is the whole“ map” of the human body. It is something that all humans have, and it tells the body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our parents, because we get some of their DNA to make our own.

People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In 1860, Mr. Mendel discovered why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small things called“ genes” （基因）in our body. In 1953, two scientists, Watson and Crick, found out that genes are really messages. They're written in the DNA with a special language.

In 1961, another two scientists found the first" word" that they could understand in that language. It shows how DNA tells the cell（细胞）to build its parts. So far, scientists have found all the words in the DNA map, but we still don't understand what they all do. By understanding what just one“ word” means, we can help to save people from several illnesses. So the more we understand, the more doctors will be able to do.

Most people hope that this can help to make better medicine to help sick people. Other people worry that when we learn more“ word” and find out more information, we will use it in the wrong way. Just to make people more attractive, or stop sick people getting jobs.

【1】Watson and Crick found in 1953.

A. all the words in the DNA map

B. small things called“ genes” in our body

C. genes are written in the DNA with a special language

D. the first" word" they could understand in that language

【2】If we understand more" words" in the DNA map, we can help sick people.

A. get jobs B. get better medicine

C. in the wrong way D. in an attractive way

【3】What do people think about this research about DNA?

A. It can be only bad. B. It can be only good.

C. It can be good and bad. D. It can be good but won't come true.

【4】If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is the best?

（①-Para. （自然段）1②=Para. 2③=Para. 3④-Para. 4）

A. ①; ②③; ④ B. ①; ②: ③④ C. ①②; ③; ④ D. ①②; ③④

24、   Experts say that students usually need eight to ten hours' sleep at night, but most Chinese students do not get enough sleep. Some Chinese parents are usually glad to see their children studying late. They will think their children work very hard, but not all parents are happy about this. Once a mother told us that every morning her 10-year-old boy put up one finger with his eyes still closed, begging(请求) for one more minute to sleep. Like thousands of students " early birds" in China, he has to get up before six every morning.

A report shows that without a good night sleep, students seem to be weaker (虚 弱) than they should be. Many students have fallen asleep during class at one time or another. Too much homework is not the only reason why students stay up late. Some watch TV or play the computer games late into the night.

Experts have ever said that the students should develop good study habits. So some clever students never study late, and they are able to work well in class.

25、Buying second-hand items is becoming more p【1】 these days. One million people are selling over 2 million second-hand items ranging from c【2】 and books to electronic devices on Xianyu every day, Xinhua reported.

People have made more money in r【3】 years and bought more things than they really r【4】 according to a speech given by Wei Ying, founder of the second-hand book-trading site Deja Vu. As more people turn to a s【5】 lifestyle, they are selling their used items for cheap. Shoppers are a【6】 to the low prices, as well as the fact that buying second-hand is good for the environment.

When Chen Junjun, 22, a college student in Shanghai, wants to buy books, she uses Deja Vu. She searches for the books she wants and adds them to her shopping cart, just like on any other shopping site. The difference is that the books are much cheaper— as much as 70 percent cheaper than new books. “Since I have limited spending money, it’s a perfect c【7】 for me,” Chen said.

Lots of people like Chen are buying second-hand books. Deja Vu has over 3 million users and sells about 20,000 second-hand books every day, Beijing Daily reported. It has also opened two brick-and-mortar (实体的) bookstores—one in Beijing, the other in Shanghai.

Besides lower prices, people can also find out-of-print (绝版的) books. Yan Minjun, 21, is a picky reader. She has bought many classic versions of books on Daja Vu, such as a copy of Pride and Prejudice that was published by People’s Literature Publishing House in 1993, “I looked for it a long time. Now I have it!” she said.
