24、 One day， a physically-deformed man came to our college and on his back was a notice saying， “Free shoe repairing for college students”.

  Repairing shoes for free? Most of us didn’t believe it， and some even thought that it was just a device(策略) to the students who would have to pay for shoes once they had been repaired. But the man just smiled and said， “Save your money to buy some books.” These words really surprised me and I talked with him， “You need to make a living. Why do you repair shoes for us for free?” He answered， while keeping on working， “I’m an illiterate(文盲)， but I know how important knowledge is for everyone. So I’d like to serve the students like you. I hope you can do well in your studies. In my opinion， money isn’t everything in life.”

After the chat， I felt he was great compared with me. He， a physically-deformed man who couldn’t walk without a wheelchair， still tried his best to devote(奉献) himself to society. I would like to thank him because he gave me a new direction in my life， and taught me what the true value of life is.

26、   I had the meanest mother in the world. Other kids ate candies for breakfast. I had to have cereal, eggs or bread. Others had Coke and candies for lunch. I had to eat a sandwich. As you can imagine, my supper was also different from other kids’. But at least, I wasn’t alone. My sister and two brothers had the same mean mother as I did.

My mother had to know who our friends were and where we were going. If we said we would be out for an hour, we couldn’t stay away for one hour and one minute. We had to be in bed by nine each night and up at eight the next morning. We had to do housework like doing the dishes, making the bed and cooking.

Through the years, things didn’t improve. Our marks in school had to be up to standard. Our friends’ report cards had beautiful colors on them---green for passing red for failing. My mother, being as different as she was, would only accept black marks. With our mother behind us, none of us were allowed to drop out of school.

My mother forced us to grow up into educated and honest adults. I am now trying to raise my children. I am full of pride when my children call me a mean mother. Why? Because now I thank God every day for giving me the meanest mother in the world.

27、Scientists have found a new use for children’s imaginations(想象力)—to make Stomachaches go away.

The BBC reports a new study that shows: “Children can be taught to use their Imaginations to deal with stomachaches.” This may be very good news for parents who need a quick cure for their sick children.

Any mother or father understands the stomach problem is one of the most frequent(时常发生的) things their children complain about. Around twenty percent of children suffer from stomachaches that doctors cannot find a reason for.

This new research is especially good for kids with active imaginations. Researchers found that the more creative the child is, the better he or she is at imagining the pain away.

The researchers used a relaxing CD with children. A voice guided them through different fantasy(幻想) situations. One of these was pretending to be floating on a cloud. Thirty children took part in the tests. Half of them used the “guided imagery” method, and the other half received normal medicines. Researchers found 73.3 percent of the CD users reported a reduction in pain. This compared to only 26.7 percent of kids who got normal treatment.

Study leader Dr Miranda Tilburg was very excited about her findings. She believed that it was a very cheap and easy way to stop children’s stomachaches. She said it would not work as well with adults.

【1】The new study may be good news for those who____________.

A．have less imaginations

B．don’t know how to relax

C．want to stop their kids’ stomachaches in a short time

D．can find why children suffer from stomachaches

【1】What kind of kids will benefit(从…收益) most from the new research?

A．Kids who like listening to music.

B．Kids who are good at remembering things.

C．The independent(独立的) kids.

D．Kids with active imaginations.

【1】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.  Sometimes, doctors don’t know why children suffer from stomachaches.

B.  Children complain about their learning problems most frequently.

C. The more creative the child is, the less likely he or she is to have a stomachache.

D.  30 children received normal medicines in the tests.

【1】From the end of the passage, we know that__________.

A．adults can also use their imaginations to make stomachaches go away

B．Dr Miranda Tilburg wasn’t pleased with her findings

C．the normal cure for stomachaches will not be used

D．a cheap and easy way to stop children’s stomachaches has been found

【1】What does this passage mainly tell us?

A．Tell us how to stop stomachaches in public places.

B．Children can “imagine”their pain away.

C．Children’s imaginations are very active.

D．It mainly talks about how to develop children’s imaginations.

28、阅读短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或用括号内所给词的正确形式填空，使短文通顺、连贯。

An auditor (旁听生) with cerebral palsy (脑瘫) 【1】 (study) at Lanzhou University for 12 years. His name is Xie Yanting.

In 1992, Xie was born in a poor family without much wealth. One day, when he was 11 【2】 (month) old, his face turned pale. He fell seriously ill and 【3】 (send) to hospital. After the doctors examined him 【4】 (careful), they said he had cerebral palsy. This almost drove his family mad.

As Xie grew 【5】 (old), he couldn’t go to school like normal students, so his parents taught 【6】 (he) at home. This continued until Xie was 15 when his father died of a heart attack (发作).

In 2011, he sat the college entrance examination (入学考试). Because he lost the power 【7】 (hold) a pen and write, he could answer only the choice questions. He scored 262 out of 280. He didn’t disappoint his family. However, the score wasn’t high enough to enter 【8】 university.

To make Xie’s dream of entering university come true, his mother went to Lanzhou University and asked whether her son could study there as an auditor. Finally, the president (负责人) of the university agreed. His teachers 【9】 classmates all admire his courage to follow his dreams. They often try their best to help him.

At Lanzhou University, he met his bole (伯乐), Xu Shoujun. Thanks 【10】 Doctor Xu and his mother, he has finished his doctoral thesis (博士论文). He said he hoped to be another “Hawking” in math. Best wishes to him!

29、   Most people hate change, which is sad since we often go through changes in life. And for some of us, even the Smallest changes can upset our day. So, the question is: Why do most of us find making adjustments（调整）to  our lives so hard?

Why we dislike change

Fear of change is _______ new. Over a century ago, people in Paris were unhappy over an unusual addition to their city: the Eiffel Tower. In fact, the citizens were so angry about the plans for the tower that they were against its construction（建造）. As strange as it may seem, their anger was completely _______. They were given no choice about the huge change that was going to be made, so they became angry. But we get upset over changes even when we do have to a say in the matter. Changes are brought about every day by the decisions we make: which school to attend, which job to take. Voluntary（出于自愿的）changes also make most of us uneasy because we don’t know how those changes will _______ our future.

How we can overcome our fear of change

People have discovered that the key to overcoming the fear of change is to be flexible. When people are flexible, they can _______ new situations more easily. Being flexible is especially important in the 21st century as technology makes change occur faster than ever before. Those  who were against change, especially with technology in the workplace, may end up finding themselves out of a job.

When change comes, and you have no choice but to _______ it. A positive（积极的）attitude helps a lot. In fact, the change may turn out to be the best thing for you. That new job you got may end up being much better than your old one. You may make the best friends of your life in the new city you moved to. _______, don’t just focus on how you feel about change. You should learn to accept the change. The change is the reality and it’s up to you to decide whether the change will be a success or a failure. You never know—your next change may be your life’s Eiffel Tower!
