24、Today was quite an amazing day for me. It was the day that my father returned home from Russia. He had been away from us for over a year. I had missed him more than words could ever say. Although we were proud of him, we hoped that he could wake up under the same roof (屋顶) as us. Now the day had finally arrived. He had worked hard and it was now time for him to return home.

Mom woke us at 6 a.m. to go to the airport. My father's flight (航班) was due to arrive at 9:30. “We don't want to be late!” she kept saying as she woke everyone up. She had no need to remind me! I quickly dressed, washed and had breakfast. I could not take my eyes off the clock all morning. Time was going so slowly. When it was 8:45, my mom told us all it was time to go. We all ran to the car and made our way quickly to the airport.

We arrived just after 9 and waited patiently. But 9:30 came and went and our father's flight had still not arrived. I kept asking Mom where he was. She just kept smiling and saying he'd be there soon. Another 10 minutes went by, and suddenly a tall man appeared in the crowd. There was my father standing before me. He dropped his bags to the floor and hugged my sister and me. “I've missed you so much,” he said. We all cried together. I never want my father to be away for such a long time.

Today was pretty perfect.

25、The Amazing Brain

Sleep. It’s something we spend about a third of our lives doing, but do any of us really understand what it’s all about?

We all know based on our own experience that when we sleep, it clears our minds, and when we don’t sleep, it leaves our minds murky (昏沉沉的). But when we still haven’t understood why sleep has this amazing function for the mind.

Recently biologists have found that sleep may actually be a kind of design solution to some of the brain’s most basic needs, the way that brain meets the high demands and the narrow margins (范围) that set it apart from all the other organs (器官) of the body. The brain has a large pool of clean, clear fluid (流体) called cerebrospinal fluid. Biologists call it the CSF. The CSF fills the space that surrounds the brain, and wastes from inside the brain make their way out to the CSF, which gets the waste into the blood. What was surprising to them was that the fluid on the outside of the brain didn’t stay on the outside. Instead, the CSF goes into and through the brain along the outsides of the blood vessels (血管), it was actually helping to clear away and clean the waste from the spaces between the brain’s cells (细胞). This only happens in the sleeping brain.

Recent research suggests that what’s happening is that when the brain is awake and is at its most busy, it puts off clearing away the waste from the spaces between its cells until later. When we go to sleep, it gets into a kind of cleaning mode to clear away the waste from the spaces between its cells.

We go to sleep every single night, but our brains never rest. While our body is still and our mind is off walking in dreams somewhere. Like our housework, it’s dirty and a thankless job, but it’s also important. In your house, if you stop cleaning your kitchen for a month, your home will become completely unlivable very quickly. But in he brain, the situation is much more serious because when it comes to cleaning the brain, it is the very health and function of the mind and the body that’s at stake. That is why understanding these very basic housekeeping functions of the brain today may prevent and treat diseases of the mind tomorrow.

【1】What does the underlined phrase “at stake” in the last paragraph mean?

A. in a healthy situation

B. in a dangerous situation

C. in an amazing situation

D. in an unlivable situation

【2】What can we learn from the passage?

A. Sleeping makes our brain feel murky.

B. The CSF can clean the waste in our brain.

C. Our brain can clean the waste at any time.

D. Sleeping makes our brain have a good rest.

【3】What is the main purpose of writing this passage?

A. To teach us how to have a good sleep.

B. To show the new research of our brain.

C. To introduce how CSF works in our brain.

D. To tell us the importance of sleeping.

26、Everyone has got two personalities (性格)—the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don’t show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control yourself, but when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, you often change your sleeping positions. The important position that best shows your secret personality is the one that you go to sleep.

If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by new ideas. You don’t like to make people unhappy, so you never express your real feelings. You're quite shy and you aren't very confident.

If you sleep on your stomach, you are a person who likes to keep secrets. You worry a lot and you're always easily becoming sad. You never want to change your ideas, but you are satisfied with your life the way it is. You usually live for today not for tomorrow.

If you sleep on curled up (蜷缩) , you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and often protect yourself from being hurt, so you are very defensive. You're shy and you don't usually like meeting people. You like to be on your own.

If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced (平衡的) personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You're usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel worried, but you don't often get unhappy. You always say what you think, even if it makes people angry.

27、   When Randy Heiss went hiking behind his Patagonia, Ariz farm, the last thing he expected to find was a Christmas list from a little girl across the US-Mexico border( 边境). “I found this balloon on my morning walk near Patagonia on Sunday.

Attached(系上) to it was a piece of paper with the Christmas wishes from a little girl,” Heiss wrote on his Facebook page.

When he brought the list home to his wife, who speaks Spanish well, they discovered that the little girl had asked for toys, clothes, art supplies(美术用品) and many other gifts. That's when Heiss set out to make the little girl’s Christmas dreams come true. Heiss said he had tried to send Christmas letters to Santa Claus by balloon when he was a kid, but never received a reply.

Heiss sent a Facebook message on Wednesday to XENY, a radio station in Nogales, to see if it could help him find out the girl or her family. He later received a reply from the station, which was sure that the writer of the letter was an 8-year-old girl named Dayami. And the station wanted to set up a meeting between the two on Thursday. "It just changed my whole day, " Heiss told the  ashington Post. " Instead of going back to my office in Bisbee, I went with my wife to Walmart."The couple bought almost everything on Dayami's list. They also brought a few gifts for Dayami's little sister, Ximena. They told the children they were Santa's helpers.

Heiss, 60, said the experience was very helpful for him and his wife. Nine years ago, the couple's only son died. "Being around children at Christmas time has been absent in our lives." Heiss said. "We now have friends for life. For a day, that border fence would be moved away."

28、A young painter completed a nice picture. To get people’s t【1】 about his skills, he put it at a crossing on a busy street. And below it a board read, “Gentlemen, I have painted this piece. S【2】 I’m new, I might make some mistakes in it. Please put a cross (叉号) wherever you see a mistake.”

When he came back in the evening to c【3】 his picture, he was shocked to see that the whole picture was filled with crosses. And some people e【4】 wrote something on his picture. Sadly, he ran to his master and said, “I failed. And if this is what I have learned, I’m not w【5】 teaching. ”

The master smiled and suggested, “I’ll let you know that you’re a great artist. Now go to paint the same picture again and give it to me. ”

Then they went to the same street the next morning and put the new picture exactly at the same place. Now the master took out another board w【6】 said, “Gentlemen, I painted this piece. There might be some mistakes in it. I have put a box with colors and brushes just below. Please give me a h【7】. If you see a mistake, pick up the brush and correct it.”

Two days later, they came back to the place. The young painter was s【8】 to see that actually there was not a single correction done!

It’s easy to say but difficult to do. If you want to help people i【9】 their behavior, you’d better learn how to help people change their attitudes (态度) or skills. Also, always remember not to judge (评判) y【10】 by someone else’s words and feel bad.

选项中，选择最佳选项。

My sister has always been a good friend to me. Thirteen years ago, she tried to

throw a blue plastic toy at my nose to see if it would hang on my face. Her first try was

unsuccessful. I giggled and laughed at her poor skills. Again, she threw it, and this time

it ________my nose. It hurts a little, but tears rolled down my face. Seeing this, my

mother rushed down the steps and took me to another room. I remember I cried for

hours, not because of the pain but because I was taken away from my sister who was

teaching me how to have _______ .

Growing up, my sister was the person I wanted to be. So I took up _______ in

Grade Three, just like her. I was a reasonably talented player, with the height and the

myself _______ it. I didn’t like the girls, the coaches, or the competitiveness of the

game. I usually pretended (假装) to be sick so I couldn’t practise any more.

Finally my mom found this and told me that if I hated it so much, I should stop.

Was she _______ ? I couldn’t stop! My sister _______ gave up anything, and neither

would I. However, when I finished the season hating each and every moment, I knew I

couldn’t continue to play it any more.

I turned to my sister, telling her that the________ of stopping playing basketball

seemed crazy since it was the only thing I could do. I told her I was afraid of my future,

not knowing how to handle the rest of my life and that I needed her advice.

To my 13-year-old self, this seemed like a big problem, but to my 17-year-old sister,

the solution was simple: take a risk. She asked me to keep doing whatever _______ me

although there would be some trouble. So I did. In Grade Eight I succeeded in

basketball tryouts (选拔赛), and playing the part of the queen in the school play and

that brought me lots of fun.
