24、When we are reading, we often see one or two graphics(图表) in a text. Have you ever thought about these questions; Why are they there? What information do they give? Do they help with our reading and understanding?

Graphics are things like pictures, maps, charts and tables. They give information to readers, Very often, we can see different kinds of graphics in books, magazines and newspapers. Writers use graphics to get the readers’ attention and give them some particular(特别的) information. Graphics help to understand the given information in a text. and graphics put the information in a particular order so that it's easy to understand when we take a quick look.

It is not always true that a picture is worth a thousand words. But many things are easier to show than to tell and they may also be easier to understand. Graphics are just the right things that give a great deal of in information but it doesn’t take much time to read and understand.

So, the right way to read and understand a graphic is to look at the picture and the words together. In a graphic, only a few words are used to explain what the picture shows you. Sometimes, numbers and percentages(百分比) are also given to go with the words to explain.

【1】Which of the following is mentioned as a graphic?

A. A letter. B. A poem.

C. A map. D. A name card

【2】The writer thinks graphics are important because   .

A. less space is taken on a page B. a picture is worth a thousand words

C. a lot of time can be saved for writers D. many things are easier to show than to tell

【3】When we read a graphic, we should   .

A. find out if there are any tables in it B. put the information in the right order

C. count how many words there are in it D. look at the picture and the words together

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

A. ①,②③④ B. ①②,③④

C. ①,②③,④ D. ①,②,③④

25、Nowadays, the food that you buy comes from many different countries. Have a look in your fridge, cupboard, and fruit bowl and check the origins(来源) of the food. Perhaps there are apples from California, lamb from New Zealand, or potatoes from Egypt? You will probably be surprised how far food travels to get to your plate. This journey, from “field to plate”, is called “food miles”. A food mile is the distance that food travels from the farmer’s field to the person who buys the food. Nowadays, food often travels thousands of miles to get to the consumer(消费者).Why is this, and what are the effects(影响) of these long distances?

Traditionally, farmers sold their food in the local market so the food didn’t have to travel very far. The consumers also did not travel very far, because they went to their local market to buy the food. This was a good system for farmers and consumers. However, there were some disadvantages. For example, consumers could only buy food that farmers produced locally. In addition, they could only get food that was in season. Now, because of modern technology, food comes from all over the world. We do not have to wait for spring or summer to buy strawberries or tomatoes. They are available in winter if we want.

Some countries have to import(进口) most of their food. This is because they have difficult climates. The United Arab Emirates(UAE), for example, gets 85% of its food from other countries. Even food made in the UAE often uses imported materials.

What’s wrong with “food miles”? Is this not a good way of increasing international trade? I believe these miles are worrying for a number of reasons. First of all, because food travels such long distances. we need more planes, lorries, and ships to move the food. This means we use more oil or petrol, so there is more pollution and more global(全球的) warming. In addition, food that travels a long way is not fresh and usually not very tasty. Tomatoes, for example, are picked early and stored for their long journey. For this reason, they are usually tasteless when they get to the consumer. Local food has a better taste, and it also reduces the amount of global pollution. We need to buy more local food.

【1】What is called “food miles” according to this passage?

A. The origins of the food.   B. The journey from field to plate.

C. The effects of long distances.   D. The disadvantages of imported food.

【2】Some countries like the United Arab Emirates have to import most of their food because of ____.

A. long distances   B. fresh and tasty food   C. difficult climates   D. modern technology

【3】The writer uses the LAST paragraph mostly to encourage readers to ______.

A. buy more local food   B. travel long distances

C. increase international trade   D. use imported materials

26、Dear Amy,

I couldn’t read your two e-mails until today because my computer was broken. I’m so sorry to hear about your problem, but I’m glad you’re feeling better and are recovering(康复). I’m surprised that in China someone’s liver(肝脏) matched(适合) yours! This is really a moving story—a stranger donated part of his liver to a girl he doesn’t even know!

You’re right. We shouldn’t care too much about our weight. I’m happy you stopped taking medicine to lose weight. From your photo I can see you are now looking very well in the hospital. To keep slim(苗条) is important, especially for an actress, but nothing is more important than health. Your doctor’s advice is really very good—exercise for at least half an hour every day and eat lots of fruit and vegetables.

It’s not only in your country. It’s the same here with us Chinese—many people are always taking medicine to lose weight. That is often dangerous. But in fact, some of them are not overweight(超重) at all. I hope these people can learn something from your story. Hope you will leave hospital as soon as possible.

Love

27、Gulangyu, a beautiful island, was successfully listed in the UNESCO World Heritage List on July 8th, 2017. It’s not only the pride of my hometown, but the pride of the whole nation.

Gulangyu is separated from Xiamen by the 600-metre-wide Egret River (鹭江), with an area of 1.91 square kilometers. It’s like a garden on the water. You can go there only by ship. Cars, buses and bikes are not allowed to run on the island. It is so quiet that wherever you go, you can hear the sound of playing the piano. As a result of this, it is called “the island of music”.

The first name of the island was Yuan Zhou Zi. In the Ming dynasty, it was changed to Gulangyu, meaning “drum waves”. Because the holes in the southwestern reefs hit by the waves make sounds like the drum beating.

Today, Gulangyu is listed as one of the nation’s major travelling places. The main places of interest here include the Sunlight Rock, Shuzhuang Park, Piano Museum and Memorial Hall to Zheng Chenggong which are visited by millions of people from all parts of the country and the world. What’s more, the buildings and food are popular with visitors.

Therefore, I hope our government can protect the fairyland well, especially the environment.

28、Dear Mr. and Mrs. Greaves，

We are very worried about Peter. He has cut three classes this month and has been seen in town in school hours. When he comes to class，he does not put heart into 【1】（he）lessons. He does not seem to understand the work and yet he never asks any questions. The only thing he'd like to do is making up excuses（借）for not having done his homework.

【2】 he has a natural talent for art，he is not even taking any interest in art lessons. This is disappointing，as last year there was a great【3】（improve）in Peter's work and we hoped he might win a scholarship. However，unless he starts to attend school 【4】（regular）and to put more effort into his studies，he will certainly not even meet the requirements for the university course next year.

I would be grateful if you could come into school to discuss this situation further.

Yours sincerely，

Thomas Brooker
