24、Are you often in mind-wandering, enjoying the state of having nothing to do, or just standing and staring? Did you dream to get good grades and devote yourself to the tasks for a few days, however, your dream fell to zero as a TV play attracted you some day?
Do we need to have a dream? The founder of Wal -Mart, Sam Walton, says high expectation is the key to everything. The important thing in life is to have a great aim and the determination to achieve it, J. W. Goethe, the famous German poet and dramatist says. Successful people suggest that those who believe in the beauty of their dreams tend to have more self-motivation (自我激励)to keep on trying and enjoying the beauty of life.
Thomas Edison dreamed to light the world by the power of electricity. He tried over 2,000 different materials before he was able to create a market light bulb. It’s hard for many of us to imagine spending so much time and energy in exploring a possibility, which is most likely to come to a dead end but for Edison, who sticked to his dream, it was just an enjoyable process. As Edison says, The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.
Helena, a 17-year-old girl, dreamed to build the magnificent sculpture (雕塑) in the world. She devoted herself to observing faces around her and making sculptures. She was woken up by her dream every morning rather than her alarm clock. She said she became passionate (有热情的) out of her dream, which kept her going through any difficulties and found pleasure in it.
You can benefit a lot from your dream, but do you know the behavior that is necessary to fulfill your dream? You have a dream and you truthfully want good grades. However, you can’t help playing on the smart phone and let go your homework. Or you rush through it so that you can get back to the smart phone. This is the case when the present-desire to play on your smart phone beats the will to reach the future goal, which is called immediate gratification. If you always behave like this, you may lose the chance to meet with your dream.
Your dream can inspire you. It can give you motivation to work hard. It helps you to focus on a path so that you are moving forward. Meanwhile, you need to set a long-term goal and work for it. The key to dream is concentrating on small wins, which gradually lead to genuine confidence. You will enjoy the whole process of rea lizing your dream as well as involving yourself into the pa ssion of the coming life.

A.suggest good ways of realizing your dream

A.enjoying pleasures here and now

A.it’s necessary for you to deal with difficulties quickly
B.it’s better for you to work hard than to have passion
C.setting big goals will make differences for your life
D.having your dream can help you take things light
【4】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.Keep Calm and Dream On
B.Dream Bigger, Think Deeper
C.Dream a Dream and Step by Step

26、 Robots are increasingly being developed to think and act like humans. But it is difficult for engineers to create humor (幽默) in machines. Computer scientists have hoped to help them understand humor. But they failed again and again. Why is it so difficult?
Kiki, a computer language expert (专家), studies humor at a university. “Most robots are powered by artificial intelligence (人工智能AI). But AI will never understand jokes like humans do.” He said, “The main problem is that AI system doesn’t have the sense of humor.”
Other experts agree that context (语境) is very important to understand humor, both for humans and robots. In one project, Tristan Miller, a computer scientist, studied more than 10, 000 puns. Puns are a kind of joke that uses a word with two meanings. For example, you could say, “Balloons (气球) do not like pop music.” The word “pop” can be a way of saying popular music, or “pop” can be the sound a balloon makes when it explodes (爆炸). “A robot might not understand the joke because it doesn’t know the meaning of the puns.” Miller said.
Although it’s difficult, some scientists say there are good reasons to keep trying to teach humor to robots. It can make machines understand humans better and serve humans better. And it can also help them to think more like humans.
But other scientists don’t think it’s a good idea to teach humor to robots. They may find humor, but they may use it in a wrong way. Maybe bad AI will start killing people because it thinks it is funny. Besides, it may make some people feel not safe. The comedians (喜剧演员) may lose their jobs when the robots can understand humor.
【1】Kiki is an expert who studies ______ at a university.
A. humans B. humor C. AI system D. robots
【2】What does the underlined word "pun" mean in Paragraph 3?
A. 语言 B. 笑话 C. 双关语 D. 同义词
【3】From the passage, we know that ______.
A. AI system has the sense of humor
B. context is very important to understand humor only for humans
C. if robots understand humor, they can’t serve humans better
D. some scientist think it’s good to teach robots humor but others don’t
【4】If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is the best?

A. ①;②③④;⑤ B. ①;②③;④⑤ C. ①②;③④;⑤ D. ①②;③;④⑤
27、People are always afraid of making mistakes. But sometimes it's not bad to make mistakes, and here is why.
At first, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things. It's always good to try new things, because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never try new things, how can you improve? How can you create? The simple answer is,“You can't.” Look around you, everything you see is the result of someone trying new things.
Another good thing about mistakes is this: when you are making mistakes, you are learning. Consider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb. When he was asked how he felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadn't failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn't work.
Finally, when you make a mistake, you are that much closer to success. Why? Because you have said what you should say, and you have done what you should do. Every time you make a mistake, you are closer to success. But it doesn't mean that you can make mistakes without thinking. Instead, when you try new things you have to think them over, so that you can keep away from some unnecessary mistakes.
We shouldn't spend all our time and money on the only one way, but use them correctly. Because our time and money are limited (有限的).
There is an old saying, “If you are not making mistakes, you are not trying hard enough.” So go bravely and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And succeed.
【1】If you are making a mistake, that means________.
A. you're careful B. you're kind
C. you're growing D. you know nothing
【2】If you never try new things, you can't________.
A. improve B. create C. spend D. A and B
【3】After Edison failed 10,000 times, he________.
A. gave up
B. invented the light bulb
C. invented the computer
D. invented 10,000 new things
【4】When you make a mistake, you are closer to________.
A. time B. money C. success D. everything
【5】What's the main idea of the passage?
A. Never make mistakes.
B. You can make mistakes without thinking.
C. Sometimes it's good to make mistakes.
D. Making mistakes is terrible.
