1、   Do you often use a cellphone? Do you take the subway to school every day? These items make our modern life easier. But do you know how we should behave properly while using them? ①以下建议可能是有帮助的。

For cellphone users

♦②Keep your voice down when you make a phone call in public. Shouting on the phone may make others feel uncomfortable. And you'd better not use it during an appointment(约会).

♦ Stop sending messages or playing games with your cellphone at a dinner or a party. ③这是和你家人以及朋友交流的好时候。

♦Don't make or answer a call while driving. It is not only very dangerous for both you and your passengers but also against the law.

For subway passengers

♦You are supposed to wait in line while buying tickets and getting on the subway.

♦④You're not allowed to eat, drink or smoke on the subway train. The smell and noise may trouble others.

It's our duty to keep the train clean and tidy. Besides, smoking is bad for health.

♦You can't take pets on the train. As we all know, animals may spread diseases (传播疾病) and get the train dirty.

♦You'd better not lie across the subway seats even if the train isn't crowded.

⑤Offering your seat to someone who needs it is regarded as good manners.

24、I went to a volunteer meeting at Salinas Valley Memorial Hospital in California several years ago.

Before I went there, I thought it was just a meeting for us to learn some basic information on how to do volunteer work. To my surprise, this meeting lasted for four hours! It told us in detail (详细地) how to be a good volunteer at a hospital.

For example, Shannon C. Graham, the director, told us to keep eye contact while offering help and never wait to be asked, but offer help first. She also told us to bend over (弯下腰) to listen while patients are talking to show that we’re willing（乐意）to hear. We should lead them to ask others for help if we can’t answer their questions and never refuse to help them. During the whole meeting, Miss Graham taught us how to satisfy patients through our words, body language and manners. It impressed me a lot. Americans focus so much on serving people with a professional attitude.

I suddenly realized why many people feel foreigners are really nice and friendly. They have been trained to do so since they were young. They always ask themselves: How do people feel about me? How can I improve to help them feel better?

I really like this kind of culture.

26、Once upon a time, there was a girl named Heather. She loved her home. It was a big, two-floored house. She had lived there for practically her whole life. “Heather, will you please come downstairs? I need to talk to you about something important.” Her mother said, from downstairs. It was a chilly winter night. “Yes, mother!” Heather said, then came downstairs. “What’s up?” She asked her parents, sitting down on the sofa, beside them.

“Dear, I want to talk to you about something important. It’s about this house. You see, month by month, this place has been hard to repair, because it’s so old. We have decided to move houses.” Her mother said. Heather was shocked to hear this. “But, mother, it’s fine! I will donate my money to repair this house! Please! Let’s not move!” she said, desperate to change her mother’s mind.

Before her mother could reply, she stormed upstairs to her room. She sat on her bed and cried. “I don’t want to shift! This house isn’t all that old!” After some time, she lay down on her bed and slept.

The next day, at the breakfast, her mother sat down across from her. “Heather, I promise, you will like your new home! You’ll be used to it before you know it!” Her mother said, trying to make Heather feel better. “Ok. I hope you’re right.” Heather mumbled（咕哝）. “We will move into an apartment, just 45 minutes away from this house. The house may not have as many rooms which we have here, but it has two balconies（阳台）, which have spectacular views!” Her mother said excitedly.

Heather could see that her mother was excited to move. “That sounds promising! Maybe I will like it there!” she said to her mother, trying to sound cheerful. “I’m sure you will!” Her mother said.

Before Heather knew it, Sunday had come. Her packing was done, and so was her parents’. She looked around. Her house was empty. It reminded her of the first time she stepped in it when she was about 5 years old. The house was empty then, too. Nine years later, that moment repeated itself. She didn’t know why, but this seemingly unimportant moment was very heart-touching for her. She smiled. Heather went to every room, saying her goodbyes.

“Dear house, I have enjoyed our time here. But, now it’s time for me to leave. Don’t be sad! We might meet someday, again. Let us both await it. I love you! You have made my life more special, with just your presence in it. I hope you work that magic of yours on every future resident（住户）to live here. Goodbye!” She said to her house.

【1】Why did Heather’s parents want to move to a new house?

A．Because they had enough money to live there.

B．Because the old house was too old to be repaired.

C．Because the new house was close to the work places.

D．Because they wanted to give a better future to Heather.

【2】Which of the following statements is true about the new house?

A．It had wonderful views with two balconies.

B．It was very big and had two floors inside.

C．It was not far away from Heather’s school.

D．It was only 5 years old and still empty now.

27、Mr. Guo is a teacher from Xi′an. He asked his students to hand in their homework through a QR code(二维码). We spent an hour or two in class learning how to generate(使产生) the codes, and in the end everything got easier, "said Guo. When students finish the homework, they keep it on Wechat(微信).Then, each student makes his own QR code and gives it to me. So I can check their homework everywhere using my computer or telephone.

Students can send the QR codes to Mr. Guo by e-mail, QQ and Wechat. When Guo scans(扫描)his students′ QR codes. their homework appears on his phone. He finds that their homework becomes more creative with many pictures, music and even videos.

Guo′s students like the new way and think it is interesting. “We are living in the information age. Many students like to work with computers, because it makes learning more fun.” said Tingting, a student of Guo′s.

“The paper is not easy to keep, but the code is easy to keep and share,” Guo said. “It is necessary to try to use new technology in education. Education itself is a kind of creation. I don′t want my students to fall behind the times.”

However, some parents are worried. They are afraid that their children will spend too much time on computers and less time communicating with teachers. But in fact, it′s unnecessary. Students still need to look up information in books and write it down when they do their homework. They only use the code when they hand in their homework which doesn′t take them too much time. Also for teachers it allows them to check the students′ homework at any time. And it′s also an easy way to share homework with other students.

【1】According to the passage, where can students keep their homework?

A. WeChat   B. QQ   C. E-mail   D. Blog

【2】What does “It” in Paragraph4 refer to?

A. The paper is not easy to keep.

B. Keeping and sharing the code easily

C. Trying to use new technology in education

D. Education itself is a kind of creation.

【3】Why are some parents worried?

A. Because they think their children will talk with teachers face to face.

B. Because they think their children will spend too much time on computers or phones.

C. Because they think their children will not like the new way of handing in homework.

D. Because they think their children will find the QR codes too difficult to use.

【4】What′s the main idea of the passage?

A. Teachers needn′t check homework anymore.

B. Students needn′t hand in homework anymore.

C. Using QR codes makes checking homework easier.

D. Some parents are worried about their children.

28、Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words

Hamams, or bath houses, are a traditional part of Turkish (土耳其的) culture. They represent an important piece of Turkey's long history and serve as a window into the past. However, these bath houses are quickly  d【1】 because of the changing habits of the Turkish people.

Hamams hold a strong place in the history of Turkey and many date back hundreds of years. Traditionally, all kinds of people went 10 hamams because Islam has strict laws for cleanliness. Believers must w【2】themselves regularly, especially before their daily prayers (祷告): As most people in Turkey didn't have running water in their homes, the Hamam was the perfect place to get clean, r【3】 and catch up with friends.

Today, h 【4】, the tradition of going to the hamam is dying out for many young people. Now almost everyone has running water in their bathrooms, so they prefer to bathe at home. As a r【5】, Turkish people are not going to hamams as often as they used to. These days, instead of relying on locals, many hamams are trying to attract f【6】tourists

A typical process at a hamam can last well over an hour. Visitors will be welcomed into entrance hall. There they will be able to relax with friends and chat over a cup of tea. They will also be able to change into the Turkish towel, which wraps around the waist like a skirt. When ready, visitors will head into the hot room. There they will lie on the hot floor and be scrubbed clean and massaged by one of the in-house masseurs or masseuses. Men and women always bathe separately (分开地)，but their experiences are very s【7】

Although many hamams are in danger of closing, they will always remain a part of Turkish culture. An experience in one of Istanbul' s famous bath houses should not be missed on any visit to Turkey. It will certainly leave you refreshed, relaxed, and squeaky clean for your next adventure.
