24、When you are about to do something brave, a cheerful wish of “Good luck!” from a friend can be helpful. But if you think you need lots of luck, what else might you do?

In the UK and US there are some strange traditions for bringing yourself a little more good luck. Some are hundreds of years old and some are much newer.

Have you heard the saying “When you wish upon a star”? If you are looking up at the sky on a clear night and you see a sudden flash of light, it is probably a shooting star! Seeing one doesn’t happen very often. The saying goes that if you see one you have been very lucky, and so ifyou make a wish, it will come true.

Maybe you have heard of the lucky rabbit’s foot. Some people believe that rabbits are lucky animals, so they carry a part of the rabbit, its foot, for good luck. There are all kinds of strange, unclear rules about which of the rabbit’s feet is the luckiest. It is said that this good luck tradition is the oldest one of all. However, as the funny saying goes, “Depend on the rabbit’s foot if you will, but remember it didn’t work for the rabbit!”

People in Britain love trees. If it is autumn and leaves are falling from the trees, some people try to catch the leaves as they fall because they think each leaf they catch will bringthema lucky month in the following year—they will need to catch 12 falling leaves to have a whole of good luck.

A. A falling leaf

25、   He Jiang, a postgraduate(研究生) in biology, will become the first Chinese student to give a speech in the commencement(毕业典礼) at Harvard University on May 26.

Given the highest honor by the university, He Jiang, who was born in a small village in Hunan Province, said, "People in China often believe that it's useless to study and children from the countryside cannot be successful in the future. However, I cannot agree with them. Education can change a person's life. I hope my experience can encourage the students from the countryside to spare no effort in study and make their dreams come true."

Different from many other families in the village, his parents never thought about finding a job in big cities and leaving their two sons at home without their care. His father was strict about their studies. He and his younger brother studied at home while the other kids in the village played in the fields. Unlike his strict father, his mother took her sons' side when her husband scolded the boys. She preferred to sit with her sons when they studied rather than chat with other women in the village.

Getting the chance to speak at the commencement is no accident. During his first days in Harvard, it was quite difficult for him to follow the professors in class and he was speechless in campus because of his poor English. Instead of giving up, He Jiang spent all his free time on English. He also made friends with natives to improve his spoken English. One year later, he had little difficulty in class and soon became one of the top students in his class. With the encouragement from Professor Diana Eck, He Jiang decided to apply(申请) for the chance to speak at the commencement." Few Chinese students had applied before, but I wanted to have a try. I just want to realize my idea of letting more people hear the voice from China and telling them that China is not what it used to be." said He Jiang. After beating three students from Harvard Kennedy School in the third and final round, He Jiang made it to get the chance to speak at the commencement.

He Jiang will go to Massachusetts Institute of Technology after graduating from Harvard.

【4】Paragraph 4 mainly tells us ______.

26、As the birds wake up the people on the farm early in the morning， one man is already up. In fact， he has never slept not once in the past 36 years.

The man has never been ill after so many years of insomnia(失眠). This has not only made him famous， but also interested many scientists to study him.

Sixty-four-year-old Thai Ngoc said he could not sleep at night after getting a fever in 1973， and since that time he has experienced more than 14，000 sleepless nights.

“I don’t know whether the insomnia has impacted my health or not， but I’m still healthy and can work normally like others，” Ngoc said.

His wife said， “My husband used to sleep well， but these years， nothing can make him get to sleep.” She said when Ngoc went to Da Nang for a medical examination， doctors said he was healthy.

Ngoc now lives on his farm at the foot of mountain， busy farming and taking care of pigs and chickens all day. “I have tried sleeping pills and some other medicine， but nothing helps， even to sleep for a few minutes，” he said.

27、Flow like the river of change

Little stream ran down from a high mountain through many villages and forests. Then it reached a desert. “I went through so many difficulties. I should have no problem crossing the desert, ”she thought. As she started, she found herself slowly disappearing into the sand. After many tries, she still failed. “Maybe I can’t reach the ocean, ”she said sadly to herself.

At this time, a deep voice said, “If a breeze(微风)can cross the desert, so can a river. ”It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream answered, “That’s because a breeze can fly, but I cannot. ”

“That’s because you can’t give up what you are. Let yourself evaporate(蒸发)into the breeze, and it can take you across, ”said the desert. “Give up what I am now? No! No! ”The little stream could not accept this idea. “The breeze can carry the vapor(蒸汽)across the desert and let it leave as rain. The rain will form a river again, ”said the desert. “And whether you’re a river or vapor, your nature never changes. ”Hearing this, the little stream went into the open arms of the breeze. It carried her to the next stage of her life.

The course of our lives is like the experience of the little stream. If you want to go through difficulties in your life to head for success, you should also change the way you are.

28、

You may think you cannot live through summer w【1】 air conditioners. But in ancient China, hand fans were almost the only for people to drive the heat away. Chinese people started to use hand fans over 2,000 years ago. The fans came in different s【2】, such as round and square. They were also made from all kinds of materials. Palm leaf fans were cheap and easy to make. Feather fans showed the o【3】 high status (地位). Sandalwood (檀香) fans could send out a sweet smell.

Later, hand fans became far more than just something that could c【4】 you down. They developed into art w【5】, in which tuanshan (round fans) and zheshan (folded fans) were the most common.

In the shape of a full moon, tuanshan was usually made of silk. They had beautiful embroidery (刺绣) featuring birds and f【6】 on them. Women especially those in the imperial palace (皇宫) liked to use them. Poets (诗人) in ancient China often compared a woman’s unlucky life to tuanshan, Nalan Xingde w【7】 during the Qing Dynasty, "If only life were as beautiful as when we first met, why should the auturnn wind bother to pity deserted fans? "

Meanwhile, men, especially the literati (文人), used zheshan, or folded fans. The literati liked them b【8】 zheshan were usually made of paper and they could paint and write poems on them. It was a way for them to show off their ability in literature, painting and calligraphy. Almost a【9】 can be painted on zheshan, but the most popular ones usually featured landscapes.

Today, Chinese people still use these fans, t【10】 not many people write or paint on them any more. Next time when you were waving a fan, you may think of the stories behind it.
