24、There are reports that some developed countries have shipped broken parts of computer to China. Such a thing can be found every day though it’s against international laws. Last month Hong Kong officers found 131,000 kilograms of broken computers, TVs and phones sent from Japan. Things like this are called e-waste. Dealing with them isn’t an easy job because dangerous poisons like mercury(汞) and lead(铅) can be found in them. Every time an old computer breaks down, it needs dealing with safely. But at present, broken computer parts are usually buried. It may be hundreds years before they are really gone in the soil.

Many places in China are polluted by e-waste. Guiyu in Guangdong Province is one of them. This town is named as “the e-waste capital of the world”. It has to deal with 1.5 million kilograms of e-waste each year, from which it makes 75 million yuan, But many of the poisons find their way into the environment. Greenpeace, an environmental group, has found the air, the earth and rivers in Guiyu badly polluted. This year, China presents a new environmental protection law. Computer companies like Lenovo and Dell will be asked to take back their old computers. This is because the companies that make computers know best how to deal with them safely. Hopefully, the problem with e–waste will be solved in the near future.

A. is the e-capital of the world   B. has serious e-waste pollution

25、Today there are 6.4 billion people on the earth. By the year 2050 there may be 12.5 billion. There are many people to feed. We need more and more food.

One way to produce more food is growing stronger plants. For thousands of years, farmers have made plants better. Every season, they pick the best plants for the next season. It works very slowly. Since 1983, scientists have been able to change plants more quickly by changing their genetic (遗传的) material. Foods from plants grown in this way are called genetically modified (转基因的) foods, or GM foods.

By changing the genetic material of a plant, it is possible to make new plants. Scientists make plants which are strong against plant diseases. They can also help in our diseases: a kind of rice will be grown, for example, which stops people becoming blind.

Rich countries produce GM foods because they are easy to grow and bring in more money. Poor countries are interested in them because they help produce more food.

GM plants are not natural. No one knows how good or bad they are. Making GM foods is only one way of feeding people in 2050. There are strong feelings against them because they are unnatural. They may feed people, then hurt them or their children later. But both rich and poor countries are interested in their uses, and they are not going to go away. In 2050, we may think differently about them.

【1】There may be __________ billion people by the year 2050 on the earth.

A．6.4

B．12.5

C．18.5

D．20.5

【2】How have scientists been able to change plants more quickly?

A．By making the best plants.

B．By asking the farmers to grow plants.

C．By changing planting environment.

D．By changing their genetic material.

【3】Why do rich countries produce GM foods?

A．Because they are easy to grow and bring in more money.

B．Because they are easy to grow and very cheap.

C．Because they help produce more food.

D．Because they are the best plants.

【4】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A．GM plants are not natural.

B．GM plants are strong against plant diseases.

C．Everyone knows how good or bad GM plants are.

D．GM foods may hurt people or their children later.

【5】What can we learn from the passage?

C．People will not be interested in GM foods.

26、James shook his money box again.

Nothing! He carefully counted the coins that lay on the bed. All that he had was $24.52 (about 153 yuan). The bicycle he wanted was at least $90! How on earth (究竟) was he going to get the rest of the money?

He knew that his friends all had bicycles. It was hard to hang out with people when you were the only one without a bicycle. He thought about what he could do. There was no point asking his parents, for he knew they had no extra money.

There was only one way to get money, and that was to earn (挣) it. He would have to find a job. He decided to ask Mr Clay for advice.

“Well, you can start right here,” said Mr Clay. “You see, my windows need cleaning and my car needs washing.”

That was the beginning of James’ part-time job.

For the next three months he worked every day after finishing his homework. He took dogs for walks, cleaned out cupboards and repaired books.

The day finally came when James counted his money and found $ 94.32. He wasted no time and went down to the shop to pick up the bicycle he wanted. He rode home proudly, looking forward to showing his new bicycle to his friends. It had been hard working for the money, but James knew that he valued (珍惜) his bicycle far more because he had bought it with his own money. He had achieved what he thought was impossible, and that was worth even more than the bicycle.

【1】Why didn’t James ask his parents for help?

27、   I have just finished reading the lovely book called Daddy Long legs written by Jean Webster. And this book was produced into a great movie in America and it was first shown in 1919.

Judy was a girl who was always positive about life though she was an orphan (孤儿) living in a small village for 18 years. Then one day a man came and decided to send her to the college, which later totally changed Judy's life. He asked Judy to write a letter to him once a month to tell him what she had learned in school. But he would never reply her letter.

The different life between the village and the college made Judy fully realize the beauty of life and she cherished every moment of her life. She never asked too much about life. Her only quarrel with life was that time ran too fast. She caught up with the other classmates so quickly although she had a quite different childhood from them, which at first did cause her a lot of trouble.

The story of Judy was told in the form of letters which were also written by Judy herself. When I was reading the letters, I was touched by Judy's character.

I am wondering whether you have ever read it and I am sure that you will be deeply moved by the unexpected and romantic ending if you are a teenager girl. In a word, the book Daddy Long legs is worth reading and the movie Daddy Long legs is also well worth watching.

【2】What did the man ask Judy to write in the letter?

A.Judy always remembered her life in the past.

B.Judy valued her new life and studied hard.

C.Judy wanted to live in a much better life.

D.Judy wanted to help that man in the future.

【4】What moved the reader too much?

A.Judy's character. B.Judy's study. C.Judy's letters. D.Judy's book.

【5】What can we learn from the passage?

A.Learn to walk before you run. B.Time and tide waits for no man.

28、   If you want to do your homework right after school, you may eat something before getting to work. Never try to work when you are very【1】[ˈhʌŋɡri]. Always do your homework before you get too tired. Don't wait until late in the evening, or the homework will seem【2】(hard) than it really is.
