24、I like planes, but I am nervous about the flying part. One time, I had to take a fight. I went on the plane. An old lady who sat beside me smiled at me.

When the plane was ready to take off, I was feeling so nervous, I was just about to hold someone’s hand when the old lady held mine and said, “I’m so afraid. Can I hold your hand?” I was shocked and said, “Okay.” We held each other’s hands tightly. The plane took off and climbed into the sky.

Just as the flight was coming to an end, the pilot announced on the speaker, “Ladies and gentlemen, this is Captain Williams. This is a special flight to me. Today, I am retiring (退休) as a pilot after working for 30 years. My family is on board to celebrate my last landing.

As the plane moved to a smooth stop, everyone cheered. The pilot stopped by my seat and the old lady stood up and hugged (拥抱) the pilot. She was his wife!

The old lady said goodbye to me and left with the pilot. On the way out, I said to the flight attendants (服务员), “Isn’t it strange that the pilot’s wife is afraid to take the plane?” The two flight attendants laughed and said , “Mrs. Williams has been a flight attendant for 20 years.”

25、阅读下面材料，从所给的A-F六个选项中选择正确的选项（其中一项是多余选项），将其序号填入小题。

Several months ago, New Zealand announced a plan. Under the plan, the country would make it illegal (非法的) for people born after 2008 to buy cigarettes (香烟). 【1】 And it won’t make a difference to smokers now.

Starting in 2023, people under the age of 15 would be stopped from buying cigarettes. After that, the age limit (限制) for buying tobacco products would be raised every year. 【2】 In short, the move will stop people born after 2008 from ever buying tobacco products.

Tobacco products contain something poisonous (有毒的) called nicotine (尼古丁). Though nicotine is a poison, when people have a little bit of it, it can give them an excited feeling. Over time, nicotine changes the body so people feel like they need more of it. 【3】 Then people are unable to stop taking it. That’s why it’s so difficult for people to stop smoking.

【4】 It’s one of the leading causes of deaths around the world. In New Zealand, about 5,000 people die every year from illnesses connected with smoking.

No country has ever tried an age limit-raising smoking plan like New Zealand’s before. 【5】 We expect the plan to have important influences.

A．This may be a good try.

B．They may feel sick if they don’t get more.

C．Smoking is very dangerous to human health.

D．People spend a lot of money in buying cigarettes every year.

E．The plan is made to prevent young people from ever starting to smoke.

F．By 2050, someone would have to be at least 42 years old to buy cigarettes.

27、任务型阅读  认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。注意：每空格1个单词。July 16th was a bad day for Arthur Johnson. In the morning, he set off from his home in Santa Barbara, California. It was the start of his summer holidays, and he decided to visit his friends at Las Vegas. Then he hoped to go fishing at Lake Mead.

Johnson’s troubles started while he was driving happily across the Mojave Desert. His car broke down and he tried to repair it, but he failed. He telephoned a workshop to ask it to send a tow truck (拖车) to pull the car away and repair it.

When waiting for the tow truck, he fell asleep. While he was sleeping, a tow truck arrived from San Pedro (the nearest town) and pulled his car away. Later on, Johnson woke up and thought that somebody had stolen his car. Unwillingly, he started to walk back towards San Pedro, but a police car stopped him to find out why he was walking in the desert.

Johnson looked like a man wanted in California for robbery, so the police kept him at San Pedro for the night. The next day, Johnson’s friends came from California. They proved that Johnson was a harmless salesman, so they let him go.
