25、判断下列句子是否符合短文内容，符合的用 “T” 表示，不符合的用 “F”表示。

Jenkins was a jewler, a master craftsman (工匠) in the Silkstone Jewellery company. Ten years ago, he made a large diamond ring for the company. It was worth ＄2,000. The second ring looked exactly like the first one. Jenkins knew it would pass all the usual tests—except one possibility. Jenkins gave the much more valuable ring to his wife on her fortieth birthday, and the couple flew to Paris for a weekend. Later, the company sold the ring for ＄6,000.

Six months ago the buyer brought it back to Silkstone’s head office. “It’s a faulty diamond,” he said. “It isn’t worth the high price I paid.”

He explained the facts. His wife’s car had caught fire in an accident. She escaped, but the ring had come off her finger. It had fallen to the ground and been damaged in the great heat of the burning petrol.

The company had to agree. They knew that no fire on earth can ever damage a perfect diamond. Someone had taken the real diamond and put a faulty stone in its place. The question was: who?

A picture of the ring appeared in the newspaper. A professional photographer recognized the ring. The next day there was another picture in the paper: it showed a famous actress walking out to a plane for Paris. Behind the actress there was a woman wearing a large diamond ring. “Do you know the woman with the lovely diamond ring?” the papers asked the readers.

At his trial (审讯), Jenkins asked the judge to consider eighty-one similar crimes against the Silkstone Jewellery company.

The judge said, “You are a master craftsman who turned bad. I feel rather sorry. But I must send you to prison for seven years.”

【1】From the passage we can tell that the master craftsman is good at making diamond rings.

【2】Jenkins made a large diamond ring for his wife on her fortieth birthday.

【3】The Silkstone company didn’t know about the faulty diamond ring they had sold for $2,000 until they received the complaint from the buyer.

【4】The faulty ring looked just like the real one except that it would be seriously damaged in a fire.

【5】The actress in the photograph gave the judge very important clues.

【6】It was the professional photographer that helped to find the criminal.

【7】The master craftsman wasn’t put into prison at last.

26、In every school there is a ‘top’ crowd that sets the pace(榜样), while the others follow their lead. Let’s say the top crowd decides that it is smart to wear-bright red sweaters. Very soon everybody is wearing a bright red sweater. There is nothing wrong with that, except the fact that bright red is not suitable on some people at all. The situation can even become dangerous, if the top crowd decides that it is smart to drink or to drive cars at 70 miles an hour. Then the people who follow the lead are causing danger to people’s lives. They are like sheep being led to the slaughter(屠宰场).

Perhaps you have come across situations like these more than once in your life. In fact, at one time or another you probably did something you knew to be wrong. You may have excused yourself by saying, ‘The crowd does it.’ Well, let the crowd do it, but don’t do it yourself. Learn to say, ‘No.’ Make your own judgements(判断). If you know the crowd is planning something with which you disagree, have the courage to leave them politely. You’ll have the satisfaction(满足)of standing on your own feet.

At another rest area on the round-city greenway in Longhua District, people can see many volunteers providing help for others. More places such as nursery rooms (育婴室) and book bars have also been set up there.

A map, called the Shenzhen greenway coverage map, shows the general layout (布局) of the city’s greenways. And each district has one greenway map with information introducing the history and tourist places along the greenway. A woman living in Futian District says that she takes a walk on a greenway every weekend and the greenway map helps her a lot. “It offers a lot of information, such as how long the greenway is and where the toilets are,” she said.

29、   My father was a printer. He loved his work and always wore a printer ’s four-cornered newspaper hat. Every day after work, he_______________a page into a small hat and gently placed it on my head.

I didn’t like it but I had to wear the newspaper hat until bedtime. My father could not hear, but he learned how to speak with his hands. Sometimes my father felt _________________about the way he was treated by his fellow workers who could hear. Because they couldn’t talk to him with their hands, they seemed to ignore him.
