25、Long ago, people made fires from lightning(闪电). But they had to keep the fire burning, for they couldn’t start it again if there was no lightning. Later, they found out hitting two pieces of stone together could make a spark (火花). The spark could fire dry leaves. In this way they could make the fire again if it went out. Then people also learned to make a fire by rubbing. They made a hole on a big piece of wood and put a smaller stick into the hole. They turned the stick again and again. After a few minutes they got a fire.

As years went by, people learned other ways to make a fire. Sometimes they used the heat from the sun. They held a piece of glass in the right way and made a piece of paper on fire.

About two centuries ago, people began to make matches (火柴). Matches brought people a quick and easy way to make fire. Today matches are still being used, but people have more new ways to make fires. One of them is to use an electric fire starter. Of course an electric fire starter is much more expensive than a box of matches. But it is more useful.

27、   My 14 year - old son, John, and I saw the coat at the same time in a second - hand clothing store. It stood out among big and old coats. It was so beautiful and had an unbelievable price, $ 28. I looked at my son and we both said nothing, but John’s eyes shone. Dark, woolen coats were popular with teenage boys, but new ones could cost several hundred dollars. This coat was even better. John tried it on and turned from side to side, eyeing himself in the mirror. It fit him so well.

John wore the coat to school the next day. After he came home, I asked, “Did the kids like your coat?” “They love it,” he said with a big grin. Over the next few weeks, John changed. He was polite, less argumentative, more thoughtful, and much happier. “Good dinner, Mom,” he would say every evening. Without a word of complaining, he would carry in wood for the stove.

One day when I suggested that he might start on his homework before dinner, John, who always put things off, said, “You’re right. I guess I will.” When I mentioned this change to one of his teachers, she joked that the coat must have changed him.

John and I both know we should never judge a person by his clothes. But it is true that when wearing beautiful and suitable clothes, we may try to be better in thought, speech and behavior to match what is on the inside to what is on the outside.

【1】What can we learn from the first paragraph?

A. The price of the coat was too high.

B. John liked the coat very much.

C. They often went shopping together.

D. The writer didn’t want to buy the coat.

【2】What does the underlined word “grin” mean?

A. A wide smile. B. A worried look.

C. An upset voice. D. An angry mood.

【3】Which of the following changes did NOT happen to John after he wore the coat?

A. He was willing to follow suggestions.

B. He often helped to do some housework.

C. He was often worried about his study.

D. He said sweet words to make his mother happy.

【4】What does the writer want to say through this passage?

A. Life is full of possibilities when we are young.

B. We should not judge people by their appearance.

C. It’s a good choice to try different things in our lives.

D. What we wear could help what we are.

28、 Fill in the blanks with proper words (在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺。每空格限填一词，首字母已给)

The rise of the Emoji(表情符号)

Happy, angry, amazed－these are some of the emotions we like to express these days when we’re sending a message on our mobile phones. We’re also using them as a quick way of telling someone how we’re f【1】. Yes, emojis have become a very important tool for communication.

Let’s clear one thing up first－there are emojis and emoticons. The latter are little images which are made using normal keys on a keyboard. For example, a colon(冒号), two dots, followed by a close bracket(右括号) is a “smiley face”. But as technology has improved, many images have been created and they can be simply a【2】to your messages, which is great!

The emoji was first invented in Japan in the late 1990s and the word “emoji” comes from the Japanese words for “picture” and “character”. The number of different images has greatly i【3】 since then. Now we have a picture of every mood or situation.

Another a【4】 of emojis is that they are an international language－they don’t use word but tell a message in pictorial form so they can be e【5】 translated whatever your native language is. However, the emojis you send need some thought as they can sometimes be misunderstood. If a friend sends you an emoji of a hammer(锤), you may think he is angry when really he is s【6】he has hurt!

But as Linguist Neil Cohn says, “To many, emojis are an exciting development of the way we communicate; to others, they are linguistic decline(语言的衰退).” It shows there is a lot more to our communication than words a【7】, but does this mean the decline in traditional writing?
