24、Popeye the Sailor first became a popular cartoon in the 1930s. The sailor in that cartoon ate lots of spinach(菠菜)to make him strong. People watched him, and they began to buy and eat a lot more spinach. Popeye helped sell 33 percent more spinach than before! Spinach became a necessary part of many people's diets. Even some children who hated the taste began to eat the vegetable.
Many people thought that the iron in spinach made Popeye strong, but this is not true. Spinach does not have any more iron than any other green vegetable.
People only thought spinach had a lot of iron because the people who studied the food made a mistake. In the 1890s, a group of people studied what was inside vegetables. This group said that spinach had ten times more iron than it did. The group wrote the number wrong, and everyone accepted it.
Today, we know that the little into there is in spinach cannot make a difference in how strong a person is. However, SPINACH DOES HAVE SOMETHING ELSE WHICH THE BODY NEEDS--FOLICACID.(叶酸)
It is interesting to point out that folic acid can help make a person strong. Maybe it was really the folic acid that made Popeye strong all along.
【1】What is the best title for this passage?
A. Popeye the Sailor B. A Mistake with Numbers
C. Folic Acid Makes You Strong D. The Truth About Spinach
【2】Why did many people eat spinach after they saw Popeye the Sailor?
A. Because they thought spinach made them strong.
B. Because they thought Popeye was funny.
C. Because spinach had a lot of iron.
D. Because people liked folic acid.
【3】The reading passage says that perhaps Popeye got his strength from .
A. iron B. spinach C. folic acid D. exercise
【4】Folic acid is .
A. something in food B. a vegetable C. dangerous D. a certain kind of spinach
25、I’ll never forget that summer day in 1965 when my mother suddenly died of an unexplained illness at the age of 36. Later that afternoon, a police officer stopped by to ask my father if the hospital could use Mother’s corneas(角膜). I was shocked. “The doctors want to dissect Mum and give her away to other people!” I thought as I ran into the house in tears.
“How can you let them do that to her?” I screamed at my father. “My mum came into this world in one piece and that is how she should go out.”
“Linda,” Father said quietly, putting his arm around me, “the greatest gift you can give is a part of yourself. Your mother and I decided long ago that if we can make a difference in just one person’s life after we die, our death will have meaning.” He went on to explain they had both decided to donate their organs(器官).
The lesson my father taught me that day became one of the most important in my life.
Years passed. I married and had a family of my own. In 1980, my father became seriously ill and moved in with us. He cheerfully told me that when he died, he wanted me to donate his eyes. “Sight is one of the greatest gifts a person can give,” he said.
I told Wendy what her grandpa had said, and with tears in her eyes, she went into her grandpa’s room and gave him a big hug. She was only fourteen years old—the same age at which I was introduced to such a thing. What a difference!
My father died on April 11,1986, and we donated his eyes as he had wanted. Three days later, Wendy said, “Mum, I’m so proud of you for what did for Grandpa.”
At that moment, I realized that my father gave much more than his eyes.
【1】How was it for the writer to agree the hospital’s use of her mother’s corneas?
A.Easy
B.Possible
C.Simple
D.Difficult
【2】According to the passage, the underlined word “dissect” may be best replaced by___________.
A.cut up
B.search for
C.move away
D.burn away
【3】Why did the writer finally agree on her mother’s donation?
A.Because she was afraid of her father
B.Because she didn’t care about it any more
C.Because she was too young to stop it.
D.Because her father explained to her
【4】What did Wendy think of her grandpa’s donation?
A.At first she couldn’t accept it, but she agreed in the end.
B.She begged her mother not to donate her grandpa’s eyes.
C.She felt proud of her grandpa’s donation
D.She thought it normal and didn’t car about it much.
26、Tony and Jane give their opinions about keeping pet dogs.
Keeping pet dogs is a good idea, says Tony I think people should be allowed to keep pet dogs. There are lots of reasons for this. First, dogs are really cute. It’s nice to pick them up and hold them in our arms, and it’s wonderful to see them growing up quickly. Second, your dog might not be dangerous but by simply barking he can keep away a burglar who might think of entering your house. Finally, we can also learn about life and death from dogs. Young people can learn how to care for others and how to respect all living things by keeping a pet dog. I think keeping pet dogs is something everyone can enjoy. | Keeping pet dogs is not a good idea, say Jane In my opinion, it is never a good idea to keep a pet dog. Firstly, pet dogs create a lot of mess. They leave fur and hair on the floor, on beds and on sofas, and they need to be washed daily. Secondly, we should remember that not all dogs are friendly. Some dogs bark at people they do not know. A few dogs bark all night. This stops their neighbors from getting any sleep. A small number of pet dogs even bite people. Lastly, you have to make sure pet dogs are in good health and provided with good pet products. Paying for dog food and seeing the vet when dogs are ill can be expensive. I believe that people should not keep pet dogs. |
【1】Tony would probably think it____ to put pet dogs on beds.
A. uncomfortable B. acceptable
C. dangerous D. untidy
【2】From the underlined part, we can guess “vet” means“ ____”.
A. places where people can buy dog food
B. places where people can treat dogs
C. people who can train dogs to do something useful
D. people who provide medical care for dogs
【3】Tony and Jane disagree on ____.
A. the growth of pets
B. the sound made by dogs
C. the money paid for pets
D. whether dogs need washing daily

What should a kid that does karate (空手道) do over the summer? Braden chose to teach karate to people who might never have a chance to learn it. He created a class for disabled adults at a center that offers job training for them. The class was very popular.
“The students taught me more than I taught them,” Braden said. One of his students was blind and in a wheelchair (轮椅).
