24、

A shy 15-year-old boy was heartbroken to hear that his favorite teacher Kim or Miss K was retiring from her position. So she could do something for Beat Disease—a group that raises money for medical research.

To help Miss K, Waylon decided to take the pig he’d raised and auction（拍卖） it off at the town fair and give away all the money. But after several people heard about his unselfishness, the auction took a very unexpected turn.

The boy had e-mailed his situation to several companies who would be buying—hoping they would bid（出价） higher than the usual price of $3-to-4 per pound. His plan worked. When the bidding kicked off, the price jumped to $11, but then one of the bidders, Dan, had an idea and reached an agreement with his competitors. He won the bidding on the pig. Then he gave it back to be auctioned again. The second winner bought it for $10 a pound, but then he gave it back, too.

Then, a third competitor, Dave Moll, was free to buy—he, too, unexpectedly gave away the pig back for a third time. Dave Moll, who is Waylon’s father’s boss, said, “I hadn’t planned to spend that much money or give the pig back. But that’s what the people ahead of me did, and I felt like it was the right thing to do, so I did.”

The pig was finally bought and sold a fourth time for $5.50 per pound, meaning that Waylon managed to raise $10,070 for his teacher’s charity. “I did not see that happening,” Waylon said. “Usually, they just sell it once!My dream got bigger and bigger every time they said, ‘Give it back.’”

“I’m so proud of him; he is unusual,” Miss K said. “He doesn’t know the influence that he is having. Someday he will.”

【1】Why did Waylon auction his pig off?

A.Because he wanted to buy Miss K a present.

B.Because he wanted to make money for himself.

C.Because he wanted to help Miss K raise money.

D.Because he wanted to make money for his education.

【2】Waylon sent e-mails to these companies to_____________ .

A.sell the pig at a better price B.tell them how good the pig was

C.ask them if they would buy the pig D.tell them where the auction would be held

【3】What can we infer from Paragraph 4?

A.Waylon’s father is a good boss.

B.The pig was bought by Dave Moll at last.

C.People didn’t expect Dave Moll to return the pig.

D.Dave Moll didn’t want to keep the pig himself at first.

【4】What is the best title for this passage?

A.An Unexpected E-mail B.An Unexpected Winner

C.An Interesting Auction Activity D.An Unusual Auction Activity

27、   For most teenagers, the kitchen may be a mysterious(神秘的) place. But Flynn McGarry is already able to take charge of(掌管) a kitchen.

At the age of 15, he was already a well-known teenage chef in the US. He has opened his own dining club at home and works with some of the best restaurants in his country.

McGarry’s love for cooking started at the age of 10. He practiced his knife skills after school and taught himself from books and the Internet. In his room, there are no video games, basketballs or movie posters, but pots, cutting boards and pans(平底锅).

When he was 11, McGarry’s parents helped turn his bedroom into a monthly supper club called Eureka. Each month, he hosted his mother’s friends and soon won the title of “culinary prodigy(烹饪神童)”. Now, people pay $160(979 yuan) per person to eat at Eureka.

McGarry does not stick with just simple types of cuisine(菜肴). He likes creating interesting dishes. “I could take a carrot and raise it to this amazing level that you’d never think you’re eating a carrot,” he said. The New York Times described his meals as “creative enough to make an experienced chef inferior(逊色的).”

As for the future, McGarry dreams of being a Michelin-starred chef. He plans to open his own restaurant by 19 and make it, as he puts it, “the best restaurant in the world.”

【1】If Martin go to Eureka with his parents for dinner, how much do they pay in total?

28、根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词，使短文意思完整。每空限填一词。

Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in his life, he might write them in his d【1】. Now a teenager with the same problems might get on the Internet and write them in his blog. In many ways, a diary and a blog are almost the same. So, what makes a blog different from a diary?

The biggest d【2】 is that a blog is much more public than a diary. Usually, a teenager likes hiding his diary book and treats it as one full of secrets. Both diaries and blogs tell what h【3】 to the writer that day.

A blog has both good and bad points. The biggest problem is that anyone can r【4】 what you write in your blog. If you are not s【5】 with a friend during school and write something bad about him in your diary, he will never know it. However, i【6】 you do this on the Internet, that friend may read your blog and get angry. So we have to be c【7】 of what we write.

A blog has good points, of course. People choose to write in blogs, and they know that their friends will read what they write. If you feel sad one day and write in your diary, n【8】 will know about it. If you write the same words in your blog, your friends may quickly write back to comfort you or o【9】 their help. Blogs help people stay in close contact (联系) and let them know what their friends are doing. Though i【10】 a good way to write blogs about everyday life, I still prefer my old diary.

29、阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

The painter was very surprised to ask, “Why are you busy taking care of these flowers which you can’t see?”

The gardener smiled, answering, “I can tell you ___________ reasons. First, I was a gardener when I was young, and I really like this job. Second, although I can’t see these flowers, I can ___________ them. Third, I can smell the sweetness of them. As to the last one, that’s ___________.”
