24、It was my first full-time job as a teacher in a high school in Riverside, California. The Department Chair told me that I would teach a writing class. I felt very confident.

It was my first class. When I entered the classroom, I was surprised. These kids looked too tall and mature（成熟的）to be high school students! I still didn’t have a list of names, so I started by talking with them and asking questions. Everything was fine until I noticed a tall boy eating a piece of cake. Rule 1, clearly written on the board, was “NO FOOD OR DRINK IN CLASS”. I got a little mad and asked him to read the rule out aloud. He did so and he got mad too!

I asked him, “Did you understand what you read?” This made him even madder.

“Yes, I did.”

“Well, then, what were you doing just now?”

“I was eating a piece of cake,” he looked at me angrily.

“Well, get up, go outside and throw the cake away.”

And then both of us made a mistake. He said, “Here, I don’t even want it.” Then he put the piece of cake in my hand. The icing（糖衣）of the cake went among my fingers, making a real mess. I was so mad that I hit the cake on his hair!

The class started laughing and clapping. Somebody got up, went to the board and wrote “Teacher - 1; Mark - 0”. I didn’t know whether I was supposed to laugh or not, but I couldn’t help it. And then, Mark got up and left.

The story was all over the school later. Some students came to me and said, “I hear that terrible things will happen if somebody tries to eat cake in your class!” Oh, how embarrassing!

Now I still teach, but I’m much better at dealing with students.

25、   It was a chilly November evening in New York City, and my daughter and I were walking up Broadway. Nora noticed a guy sitting inside a cardboard box next to a newsstand. She pulled at my coat sleeve and said, “That man’s cold, Daddy. Can we take him home?”

I don’t remember my reply, but I do remember a sudden heavy feeling inside me. I had always been delighted at how much my daughter noticed in her world, whether it was birds in fight or children playing. But now she was noticing suffering and poverty. She wasn’t even four.

A few days later, I saw an article in the newspaper about volunteers who delivered meals to elderly people. The volunteers went to a nearby school on a Sunday morning, picked up a food package, and delivered it to an elderly person. I signed us up. Nora was excited about it. She could understand the importance of food, so she could easily see how valuable our job was. When Sunday came, we picked up the package and phoned the elderly person we’d been assigned. She invited us right over.

The building was depressing. When the door opened, facing us was a silver haired woman in an old dress. She took the package and asked if we would like to come in. Nora ran inside. I reluctantly followed. Our hostess showed us some photos of her family. Nora played and laughed. I accepted a second cup of tea. When it came time to say good bye, we three stood in the doorway and hugged. I walked home in tears.

Where else but as volunteers do you have the opportunity to do something enjoyable that’s good for yourself as well as for others? Indeed, the poverty my daughter and I helped lessen that Sunday afternoon was not the woman’s alone it was in our lives, too. Now Nora and I regularly serve meals to needy people and collect clothes for the homeless. Yet, as I’ve watched her grow over these past four years, I still wonder which of us has benefited more?

【1】What do you know about the man Nora noticed on that evening?

A．He was asking for food.

B．He was one of those homeless.

C．He was taken home by the author.

D．He was buying a newspaper.

【2】Why did the author have a sudden heavy feeling?

A．Because his daughter had noticed the dark side of life.

B．Because he did not want to take the guy home.

C．Because he felt a deep sympathy for the guy.

D．Because his daughter was afraid of what she saw.

【3】In what order did the story take place?

a. I happened to read a piece of writing about volunteers.

b. Nora found a man and wanted to help him.

c. We just not only help reduce the poverty of the woman, but also the poverty in our lives.

d. Unlike Nora, I entered the woman’s house unwillingly that Sunday afternoon.

e. We went to pick up the food package in the nearby school.

A．a-e-d-b-c

B．a-b-e-d-c

C．b-d-a-e-c

D．b-a-e-d-c

【4】What is the best title for this passage?

A．A Loving Kid

B．Volunteers at Work

C．A Lesson in Caring

D．How to Help the Need

26、Betty and I are best friends. Our birthdays are on the same day, so every year we have a birthday party together. But this year, we had a costume party（化装晚会） instead.

While we were writing the invitations, my mum came in and asked, “Why not invite John?” John had been in our class for only a few months, but he was already getting better grades in math than anyone else in class. I wrinkled(皱起) my nose, “Mum, he wears the same pants to school every day. How could he even afford a costume?” Mum said nothing. The next day, mum gave me an envelope with a shopping certificate(凭证) in it.” I thought it would be nice for you to give this to John.” Mum said. But how? We didn't want to make John embarrassed. We discussed it for a long time. Finally, Betty and I had a good idea.

On the day of our party, kids arrived, dressed differently. John arrived, in an old sheet (床单), but still in the same brown pants as usual. We danced, ate snacks and played games in groups. Before eating the birthday cake, Betty said in a loud voice, “Now it is time for the great prize game. It is the following riddle（谜语） …” It was a math game. None of us was surprised when John came up with the right answer first and walked off with the envelope.

Everything went on well as we planned. John wore a new pair of pants and a new shirt the next week. He felt happy. So did we.

When we help others, we need to find a proper way, or we may hurt them in another way.

【1】The two girls and John were in the same ____________.

27、Have you ever seen the auroras (极光) in the sky? Cosmic radiation (宇宙辐射) creates these pretty lights in the North and South Pole areas. It seems that cosmic radiation is a beautiful gift from space. But for some people, it can be dangerous.

A 53-year-old fight attendant in South Korea, who spent about 1,022 hours flying each year, passed away due to cancer. A South Korean court connected his death to great exposure (暴露) to cosmic radiation. During his career, nearly half of his flights crossed the areas in and around the North Pole, where cosmic radiation is extremely strong.

① Cosmic radiation from space is hitting Earth nonstop, coming from both the sun and other stars in the Milky Way.

② Earth’s magnetic field (磁场) and atmosphere (大气层) protect us from most cosmic radiation. The magnetic field is strongest near the equator and weakest at the poles. People living at higher latitudes (纬度), like in Heilongjiang province, are exposed to a little bit more cosmic radiation than those living at lower latitudes, like in Hainan province. Also, when you go higher in an airplane, the thin atmosphere increases exposure to cosmic radiation.

③ For flight attendants crossing polar areas and for astronauts in space, cosmic radiation can create health risks. NASA reported that the radiation exposure faced by astronauts spending six months in space is the same as having 1,000 chest X-rays.

④ However, what makes cosmic radiation dangerous also makes it useful. The light speed and energy of cosmic radiation have provided wonderful ideas for treating tumors (肿瘤). Scientists can now produce man-made radiation similar to cosmic radiation. Compared to the present ways of treating tumors, it can kill tumors better with less damage to healthy parts of the body around them.

【1】The death of the flight attendant is believed to have something to do with ________.

A．long flight hours

B．lower latitudes

C．strong cosmic radiation

D．a family history of cancer

【2】The sentence “Luckily, our planet is well-protected.” should be put in ________.

A．①

B．②

C．③

D．④

【3】Astronauts are exposed to more cosmic radiation because ________.

a. they are closer to the sun and stars       b. they are at higher latitudes in space

c. space suit cannot prevent cosmic radiation       d. there is not much atmosphere protecting them

A．ac

B．bc

C．ad

D．cd

【4】What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A．Cosmic radiation is very dangerous.

B．People can produce cosmic radiation.

C．Earth is filled with cosmic radiation.

D．Cosmic radiation helps fight cancer.

28、   More and more people believe that technologies are great for learning. Today, teaching tools like iPads are used in a lot of courses, i【1】 language, history and science.

Many teachers are supporters of using iPads in language learning. They say that students now have much more time for discussion in the classroom. Instead of spending valuable class time listening to texts or watching teaching videos, students can do this on their own and come to class prepared for discussion.

The teachers also say that iPads allow students to learn at their own pace. Some students might listen to a dialogue only once and understand it, so they can save time for doing other things. Other students, however, might need to listen to the same dialogue again and again to understand it. Using iPads is especially h【2】 to the students who are learning a language at different paces.

The students who are using the new tool in some courses are also happy. They believe that using iPads is a more enjoyable way to learn (like listening to stories and watching movies). The class has become much more interesting and creative.

There are other advantages for students. By using iPads, they can pay some attention to the material and learn more. Teaching notes are s【3】 in their iPads and are easy to find. Some students spend more time studying now. “I can listen to my language material or watch teaching videos on the bus, instead of having to wait till I get home,” a student explained.

But many adults c【4】 that technologies like iPads are doing harm to students. They worry that students might use iPads to download teaching notes and use them to cheat during exams. Some believe that iPads may separate students from each other. If a student spends more time watching videos on an iPad, he will have f【5】 chances to have face-to-face communication with others.

However, technologies are a【6】 a part of most students’ day-to-day lives. As for cheating, teachers can ask students to hand in their iPads when they take exams. Education needs to make c【7】 with the times as technology is playing an important part. We should look forward to a wonderful future when iPads and other technologies can add a lot to the classroom.
