26、London is considered as one of the greatest cities on Earth. From historical sites to the modern-day metropolis, it can seem an infinite feast of activities and possibilities. For the budget-minded traveler, London might not appear to be the most wallet-friendly destination. 【1】 There is a wide selection of free things to do in London, as long as you know where to look.

One of the most surprisingly free things to do in London is visit top museums and art galleries.【2】For those who prefer museums with an archeological feel, the British Museum charges no admission, and contains such cultural treasures as the Rosetta Stone. Many other museums are also free to visit, although some offer access to special traveling exhibits for a fee.

London has a long history of influencing the musical world, and the wise traveler knows that concerts are some of the best free things to do here in various seasons. Particularly in the summer, free concerts are available along the banks of the Thames River, and frequently advertised in entertainment guides.【3】Covent Garden, a theater and shopping district, is famous for its free performances, and even auditions musicians before allowing them to perform.

【4】 For instance, Charles Dickens's fans may take a stroll through Camden Town, following in the footsteps of Bob Cratchit. For those desperate for a glimpse into the world of Harry Potter, go to King's Cross Station, where you can see for yourself if Platform Nine-and-three-quarters really exists…

While London is full of exciting opportunities for the luxury traveler, it doesn't exclude those on a budget. The free things to do in London will often help travelers escape from the tourist attractions and catch a look at local life. 【5】

B．Literary lovers will find many free things to do in London.

C．That's because London is among the world's priciest cities.

27、Drive through any suburb in the US today, and it’s hard to miss the bins that have become companions to America’s trash cans. Recycling has become commonplace, as people recognize the need to care for the environment. Yet most people’s recycling consciousness extends only as far as paper, bottles, and cans. People seldom find themselves facing the growing problem of e-waste.

E-waste rapidly increases as the techno-fashionable frequently upgrade to the most advanced device and the majority of them end up in landfills(垃圾填埋地). Some people who track such waste say that users throw away nearly 2 million tons of TVs, VCRs, computers, cell phones, and other electronics every day. Unless we can find a safe replacement, this e-waste may get into the ground and poison the water with dangerous toxins(毒素), such as lead, mercury, and arsenic. Burning the waste also dangerously contaminates the air.

However, e-waste often contains reusable silver, gold, and other electrical materials. Recycling these materials reduces environmental problems by reducing both landfill waste and the need to look for such metals, which can destroy ecosystems.

A growing number of states have adopted laws to ban dumping(倾倒)e-waste. Still, less than a quarter of this waste will reach lawful recycling programs. Some companies advertising safe disposal(处置)in fact merely ship the waste to some developing countries, where it still ends up in landfills. These organizations prevent progress by unsafely disposing of waste in an out-of-sight, out-of-mind location.

However, the small but growing number of cities and corporations that do handle e-waste responsibly represents progress toward making the world a cleaner, better place for us all.

【1】What can we infer from the first paragraph?

A．Most of America’s trash cans are made of recycled material.

B．E-waste cannot be put into trash cans in the US.

C．Most Americans have realized the dangers of e-waste.

D．Many Americans now have access to recycling bins.

【2】Which word can best replace the underlined word   “contaminate ” in Paragraph 2?

A．reduce.

B．heat.

C．absorb.

D．pollute.

【3】Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A．Progress is being made in handling e-waste.

B．A growing number of states ship the e-waste to developing countries.

C．A large number of cities have begun to handle e-waste responsibly.

D．The world will become cleaner by disposing of waste in an out-of-sight location.

【4】What’s the author’s purpose in writing this text?

A．To tell us how to recycle e-waste.

B．To talk about the future of e-waste.

C．To encourage us to deal with e-waste properly,

D．To discuss if it’s necessary to recycle e-waste.

28、 Grammarphobia is the fear of grammar. This fear attacks almost everybody at one time or another, and it's most likely to strike during English or language arts classes. Even people who love reading and writing have been known to get feverish and insecure when they are aware of the possibility of turning in homework with grammar or spelling mistakes. Though writing may be enjoyable, being corrected is definitely not!

Grammarphobes, it's time to put your fears behind you. Grammar isn't that dreadful (可怕的). Here's why.

Let's assume you like hearing and telling stories and that you enjoy joking with friends. You probably also like e­mailing and instant­messaging.  Well, what do you think makes all these possible? Grammar!

Grammar is simply the art of putting words together to make sentences. Whenever you use words to express yourself, you're using grammar. You do this all the time without even thinking.

So why think about it? Because good grammar helps you convey the ideas you intend. If your words aren't right, or if they are not in the right order, the person you are talking to might get the wrong idea. This can have embarrassing results.

Grammar helps us understand each other.  It's like a manual (手册) for assembling the words in your head. You have to put your words together the right way if you want them to make sense. They can't do what you want if they aren't put together correctly.

What if everybody you know had a different manual? How would you agree on what others' words mean? People with different grammar manuals might be speaking different languages.

Communicating is similar to playing cards.  To make sense, we have to play the same game, by the same rules. What are the rules for playing the game of English? You already know most of them without having to open a book.

【1】Grammarphobes refer to people who ________.

A. consider grammar to be boring

B. are afraid of making grammar mistakes

C. mind grammar too much in writing

D. are worried about grammar homework

【2】 The underlined word “assembling”  in Paragraph 6 may mean ________.

A. directing   B. remembering

C. looking for   D. bringing together

【3】What does playing cards have in common with communicating?

A. Both can be learned easily.

B. Both can be interesting games.

C. Both need standards.

D. Both can make sense for our life.

【4】What might be the main idea of the passage?

A. Grammar is not horrible.

B. Forgetting grammar when writing.

C. Improving grammar through writing.

D. What is grammarphobia?

29、Many people like traveling, but they cannot take their dogs wherever they go. Some people let their dogs stay alone at home while others ask someone else to take care of their pets. If you’re leaving your beloved pet at home for a holiday, it can turn into a bad experience. Luckily, you don’t have to worry about your dogs anymore because Rover can cover for you while you are on leave. Rover is the latest service to offer at•home dog boarding. It’s a good alternative (替代物) to boarding your dog at a dog boarding kennel (狗舍) or your neighbor’s house.

The way Rover works is sort of like Airbnb. Dog owners surf the Rover website or app for pet sitters (照看者), which can be organized by zip code (邮政编码) and available dates. Information of pet sitters is provided, complete with many reviews, specific services and rates. Now Rover has over 25,000 pet sitters in more than 5,000 US cities. And they’re all experienced pet sitters.

After finding someone that meets your needs, just send messages to the pet sitter to arrange a meeting. Then, like Rover says, all that is left to do is relax! Rover’s pet sitters are encouraged to send text and picture information throughout the day, and if there’s a medical emergency, the site will send a vet (兽医). Besides, don’t worry about a pet sitter who fails to help you, because someone else will soon take his or her place.
