24、In Tibet, there is a newly opened minimarket. It provides all kinds of daily products for local people. But people don’t need to pay money. Villagers here can exchange (交换) recyclables (可回收物品) for them. “Rubbish for cash (现金)” is the secret behind its success.

It was not accepted by all the local people at first, so the minimarket started with children. The children exchanged recyclables for snacks and soon the news spread. Now more and more people come to exchange recyclables for daily products. Four local villagers even found a job in the minimarket. Tenzin Drolma is one of them. He is busy but happy every day. “The idea is good, and it is good for the environment. Also, I’m thankful for having such a job. I can get 3,000 yuan every month,” he says.

The minimarket is not the only “green” market. In another “green” supermarket in another city, customers can buy daily products by points. People exchange recyclables for points. For example, one kilogram of boxes can be exchanged for 5 points. When people get 16 points, they can exchange them for a bag of salt.

Technology also makes the green life smarter and cleaner. The smart bins (垃圾箱) can tell people how heavy their recyclables are and put the number into cards held by them. When the bins are full, they will “remind” the cleaning staff to take the rubbish out.

【1】What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A．The cash.

B．The daily product.

C．The new sale form.

【2】Why does the writer say the two markets are “green”?

A．Their buildings are green.

B．Their products are good for the environment.

C．They do the business in an environmentally friendly way.

【3】How do people get products in another “green” supermarket?

A．They pay money for them.

B．They exchange points for them.

C．They exchange rubbish for them directly.

【4】Which of the following is true?

A．The two markets are in the same city.

B．The markets are popular as soon as they appear.

C．People use points to exchange daily products in another “green” market.

【5】What does the passage mainly talk about?

A．The “rubbish for cash” life in Tibet.

B．How local people in Tibet buy daily products.

C．How technology makes people’s life smarter.

25、任务型阅读

A请认真阅读下面短文，在短文后表格的空白处填上适当的单词。注意：每空一个单词。）

Good morning, boys and girls. Today I’ll talk about going online.

We know that there are too many net bars around us. The Internet can make our lives interesting and enjoyable. Many of us like going online very much because we can learn how to use the computer. We can learn English and read some newspapers and magazines to know more around us. It can make us clever in playing computer games. Also when we can send e-mails to our friends they can get them at once. It can help us contact people from all over the world.

But some students spend too much time in playing computer games and some stay in the net bars all day and all night. Some girls even get to have boyfriends or some boys get to have girlfriends online. They write too many letters to each other. It takes them too much time to chat online so they do worse in their lessons and they don’t study well any more. I think we mustn’t get online when it is time for us to study. We can do it in summer or winter holidays. I think we should get online with our teachers or parents.

At the same time, if we have lots of free time, we can do some activities after class. We usually have activities from 4：50 to 5：50 in the afternoon. You can play basket ball or football. We also have some interest groups in school, such as drawing, singing and dancing. We can go to the English corner on Monday afternoon. We hope we can spend more time on our subjects or on such activities that we can learn a lot from and less time on the Internet.

26、   People with high self-esteem (自尊) use their successes to build confidence. They feel good about the future. They are willing to try new things and make new friends. People with low self-esteem often think about the times they have failed and the mistakes they have made. They are uncomfortable while trying new things and making new friends. Read what Jack and Mike wrote in their own diaries.

Dear diary,

Tomorrow is the first meeting of the Chess Club at the youth centre. I’ve been looking forward to this all week. My grandfather taught me how to play last summer. Since then, I’ve played only a few times. Now I’ll be able to play chess in the club every week. I’m sure I’ll feel nervous when I walk in the centre tomorrow. But I’m confident I’ll make friends there. We’ll  have something in common (共同之处)— we love chess.

Jack

27、Students in Denmark take national tests on a computer at different times. About 4 years’ test results, researchers found something interesting. Students who took the test in the morning scored higher than those who took it in the afternoon.

So what happens? We might have noticed that in the afternoon we become less productive (有效率) and the work we do is of lower quality (质量). A lot of people around the world experience the same thing every day. That’s called the afternoon slump (低迷).

There’s a reason why this happens. Our bodies are controlled by our circadian rhythm ( 昼夜节律) which is like a clock. It tells our bodies when to go to sleep and wake up. Our energy levels change with the circadian rhythm.

We are smarter and more energetic during some parts of the day, while during others, we are less energetic. For example, during the night we experience a large drop in energy, especially between 2 a.m. to 4 a.m.. However, our energy slowly rises after waking up until it reaches a peak (峰值) in the late morning. But that peak is then followed by an afternoon low, which we call the afternoon slump. The low appears about seven hours after waking up, which is usually between 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. for most people. This is the time when people make more mistakes during the daytime. When the afternoon slump is over, it rises again. But as our body gets ready for sleep, it slowly drops.

________ Stretching (拉伸) for even 20 seconds, taking a break for about 15 minutes, eating a bar of black

chocolate and so on can have a huge influence on your energy levels. Hopefully, you have a better idea about the afternoon slump and what we can do about it.

【1】The afternoon slump makes people________.

A．feel sad

B．become less productive

C．feel more energetic

D．improve work quality

【2】According to the passage, the circadian rhythm has a big influence on our________.

A．habits

B．energy levels

C．looks

D．learning skills

【3】Which of the following sentences can be put in the ________?

A．Some of our habits may make the afternoon slump even worse.

B．It’s important for us to know why the afternoon slump happens.

C．It’s difficult to avoid the afternoon slump, so we should do nothing about it.

D．The afternoon slump is natural, but there are some ways to get energy back.

【4】Picture ________ shows the change of the energy level with the time.

A．

B．

C．

D．
