26、Do you believe the happiness of your life has anything to do with the quality of your thoughts? Let me tell you about my friend Matt if you don’t.

Several months ago I was asked to be a FB friend with a guy named Matt. I was told that Matt had been in a terrible motorcycle accident in June of 2017. As a result of that accident, Matt’s wife died. What’s worse, Matt broke 42 bones and was burned over 33% of his body. He spent two months in the York Metro burn unit, one month in recovery center and another nine months in therapy. At first, the doctors were not sure that Matt would even live. Then he received a bad report and it was doubtful that he would ever walk again.

If there is anyone who could have fallen into a pit of self-pity, you would believe it could be Matt. But that is not what Matt chose to do. He gave it his best shot in rehab and therapy. In the end, not only did he live, but he could also walk! Believe it or not, Matt went back to work this past April! He put a quote on FB. When I read the quote knowing all Matt had been through, tears filled my eyes. Here's the quote: “Train your mind to see the good in everything. Positiveness is a choice. The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts.”.

Matt has a new goal now to write a book and share his story to help others. Most people don't like to do public speaking but Matt wants to do that. My friend Matt is a true inspiration!

28、   The sharing economy has grown in recent years to include everything from apartment sharing to car sharing to community tool sharing. Since 2009, a new form of sharing economy has been emerging in neighborhoods throughout the US and around the world-Little Free Libraries. The libraries are boxes placed in neighborhoods where residents can take out and leave books. Little Free Libraries come in all shapes and sizes. Some libraries also have themes, focusing on books for children, adults, or tour guides.

In 2009, Tod Bol built the first Little Free Library as a gift to his mother, a devoted reader. When he saw the people of his community gathering around it, exchanging conversations as well as books, he knew he wanted to take his simple idea further. "I think Little Free Libraries open the door to conversations we want to have with each other." Bol said.

Since then, his idea has become a movement, spreading from state to state and country to country. According to Little Free Library. org, there are now 18,000 of the little structures around the world, located in each of the 50 US states and 70 countries in Europe, Africa and Asia.

The Internet has helped to spread Little Free Libraries. But an Atlantic article says the little structures serve as a cure for a world of e-reader downloads. The little wooden boxes are refreshingly physical and human. For many people, the sense of discovery is Little Free Libraries' main appeal: "A girl walking home from school might pick up a graphic novel that gets her excited about reading; a man on his way to the bus stop might find a volume of poetry that changes his: outlook on life," says the Atlantic article. "Every book is a potential source of inspiration."

【1】How do Little Free Libraries get their books?

A.Tod Bol donated them. B.Citizens shared them.

C.US government provided them. D.The communities bought them

【2】Why did Tod Bol want to build more Little Free Libraries?

A.He wanted to promote his idea worldwide.

B.He was inspired by the sharing economy.

C.They can offer neighbors more chances to talk.

D.They are a' gift to please his mother.

【3】According to the Atlantic article, Little Free Libraries   .

A.benefit the spread of the Internet B.help cut down on e-reading

C.promote (encourage) e-reader downloads D.call on human to care about each other

【4】Little Free Libraries attract readers most in that   .

A.they connect strangers together B.they are located all over the world

C.they are in various shapes and sizes D.they may give readers a sense of discovery

29、When Harrison School District 2 turned to e-learning last spring, they made sure to provide each student with a laptop and the tools needed to succeed at home. But one remaining need in many families was Internet access.

Christine O’Brien, spokesperson for District 2 said, "When you had many people learning and working from home, sometimes there were Internet glitches. We wanted to avoid that and make sure students in our district could have equal chances to learn and that our families could learn from home as well."

O’Brien said that this year they made sure to survey each of their students to see who exactly needed the Internet.

“This year we were really specific about asking whether families had Internet service at home without a phone," she said. They discovered that about a thousand families needed some sort of Internet connection.

And that’s where Altia came into play. A local software company heard there was an Internet shortage for students and it stepped in to see how they could help. Teaming up with local foundations (基金会), they were able to provide a monthly Internet service that allows many people to have Internet access at the same time. Mike Juran, CEO of Altia said; “At Altia we talked to Randy Rocha at District 2 and I just put out an email to friends and people that I knew and that made its way back to Pikes Peak Community Foundation and Norwood Foundation and people spread that around. Within weeks we were able to get something done."

"The community came together and helped us piece this part. We worked so hard as a school district to get those devices into the hands of students but this was a piece that we weren’t ready to do. We hadn’t budgeted (预算) for it, so the community’s coming together to help our families in this way was really truly amazing," said O’Brien.

【1】What does the underlined word “glitches” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A．Users.

B．Services.

C．Problems.

D．Repairmen.

【2】What did Harrison School District 2 do according to O’Brien?

A．They kept track of students’ situations.

B．They sold laptops to students cheaply.

C．They kept holding new learning programs.

D．They encouraged students to treat each other equally.

【3】How did Altia help to make e-learning easier?

A．By visiting the families every month.

B．By sending emails to students every week.

C．By setting up a local foundation to raise money.

D．By offering Internet service to students in need.

【4】Why was O’Brien so thankful for the community?

A．It inspired students to be helpful and active.

B．It helped deliver devices to the hands of students.

C．It added a big part to the school’s planned budget.

D．It solved things the school district was unprepared for.

31、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

“Life of Pi” is narrated by an older Pi and takes place in the present as he tells his life story to a writer. Pi begins with how he got his name and how his family owned a zoo, but eventually leads into his family needing to leave India for financial 【1】. The heart of the story lies in Pi as a young man and the time he spent out at sea on a lifeboat with a tiger named Richard Parker, but getting to that point is quite an ordeal（苦难考验）. Pi loses everything and everyone close to him in the blink of an eye and he doesn’t 【2】 on making what feels like an unbreakable bond with a Bengal tiger.

The 【3】 film offers a rather marvelous message about religion as Pi discusses the experimentation with several different religions as a young boy. Even though it seems kind of silly that a boy has 【4】 so many religions at one point in his life, it portrays a/an 【5】 message in a light that doesn’t seem too preachy（说教的）. But the religious aspect is really only a backdrop for being on your own 【6】 to finding who you really are. Feeling so alone for so long and having Pi talk about not being alone and not getting to say goodbye to those he cared about most is one of those things that just hits you really hard.

While witnessing Pi attempt to tame Richard Parker is really 【7】, there are so many unbelievable sights to witness in “Life of Pi”. There’s the whale, the jellyfish, the flying fish, that 【8】 storm, and that seaweed island with all of the meerkats (a kind of monkey). “Life of Pi” never really lets up on being 【9】 breathtaking and amazing from beginning to end.

“Life of Pi” is pleasantly satisfying. With a heartfelt message, beautiful visuals, and stunning camera work. “Life of Pi” is truly a sight to behold and illustrates how 【10】 3D can be to a film that isn’t just a summer hit or blockbuster.

One time, the teachers at a school wanted to teach the students about airplanes. While all airplanes can fly, some are able to fly farther than others. This is because not all airplanes are built the same. For example, a fighter plane looks very different from a plane that people fly in when they want to go on a holiday. The teachers wondered how they could make students understand this.

Then, the science teacher, Mr Moose, decided that the school should have a paper airplane contest. Every student would design a paper airplane. They would stand in a line in the playground behind the school. The students would take turns throwing their airplanes. The student whose airplane went the farthest would win.

When Mr Moose announced the paper airplane contest to the students, they were very excited. A student named Paul, who was on the school sports team, said to everyone else that his airplane would win. “I am the strongest,” Paul said. “So I will be able to throw my airplane the farthest.”

However, while Paul was saying this, another student, Brian, was thinking how he could win. Brian did not play any sports and was not very strong. But he loved airplanes and really wanted to win the contest.

Brian realized what he had to do. He went to the store and bought a big stack (叠) of paper. When he got home, he took the paper into his backyard. He took a piece of paper and folded an airplane. It didn’t go very far, so Brian took another piece and folded (折叠) another airplane and threw it. This airplane went a little farther. Brian kept folding different kinds of airplanes and throwing them. Some went very far and some did not. Finally, when Brian had used all the paper, he walked up to the airplane that had flown the farthest and picked it up.

The next day was the contest. All the students lined up. Everyone took turns. After a while, everyone had thrown except Paul and Brian. Paul went first. With a loud yell, he threw the airplane into the sky. It went farther than every other airplane. Everyone cheered.
