24、In the most southern part of our planet, there's a place that's covered with snow and ice all year round. But it has the clearest and cleanest air. Amazingly, in this place, the sun sometimes hangs even in the midnight sky. This place is Antarctica (南极洲): the coldest, windiest and harshest (恶劣的)  place on the Earth.

As the world's least-known place, Antarctica is of great interest to scientists around the world. During 30 years, China has sent many scientists to Antarctica. They mostly look for the resources under the icy land and do research about climate change and marine (海洋的) biology.

Antarctica is a place with fantastic views. However, life there is very hard. Food is one of the biggest problems. Frozen food which can be heated easily is people's daily food. Fresh vegetables are hard to grow in the cold weather.

Sleep is also difficult. In Antarctica, summer lasts from November to March. During this period, Antarctica points to the sun and receives sunlight 24 hours a day. In order to get some sleep, scientists cover the windows with black plastic cloth to create "night".

Working in Antarctica is dangerous, especially when meeting gale-force (七级以上的) winds. They can easily blow people away. So there are ropes that connect buildings of some research stations. People can hold these ropes to keep their balance in forceful winds.

What's more, communicating with others is difficult. Without cables and Internet in some research stations, two-way radios are the only tools to communicate. If people want to say hello to friends and relatives, they can use satellite phones.

Although it is challenging to work in Antarctica, scientists' passion to learn about this mysterious land will never end. It is hopeful that one day they will step every corner of this icy land.

【1】 From the passage, we learn that Antarctica_______.

A. is covered with water

B. rains heavily from time to time

A. find out ways to control water pollution

A. wear more clothes to keep warm

26、Can you post the photos of your friends online? Some students think they can post their friends’ photos online. Others don’t agree with them. Here are the different ideas about the question.

Yes:

Li Yaobo, 14, Beijing

I think people need to get the permission from their friends. Some people may not like to share their photos on social media. If their friends directly post their photos online, they will feel uncomfortable and even argue with their friends about it. It will affect their friendship.

Sun Yao, 14, Zhejiang

Photos could show their friends’ faces, the places they have been to and other information. In this case, people disclose their friends’ privacy while posting their photos online. It is impolite or even against the law to disclose one’s privacy.

Liao Chengkun, 14, Guangdong

If people directly post photos of their friends online, many people can get the photos. Some strangers might use their photos illegally (非法地).

No:

Zhang Yingke, 14, an overseas student at Unionville High school , Canada

I believe that we don’t have to get our friends’ permission before posting their photos on social media. If that person takes photos with you and the photos are in your hands, they are yours and you have the right to do whatever you want. Second, if our friends are active on social media and like sharing, they would like their photos to be seen.

Zhang Yiyi, 14, Shanxi

I think that if my friends want to post photos of us online, they don’t need to tell me. I believe that they have no harm to me. And it is also another way to show our real friendship. It means they value friendship with me and want to share it with more friends. I can also interact (互动) with them online. Maybe someone worries that the posted photos will disclose his or her privacy. But I think real friends will not post photos that do that.

27、In order to tell what I believe, I must bring up something from my personal history.

The turning point of my life was my decision to give up my promising business job and study music. My parents didn’t think it was a good choice I took up music as a job. Considering my family background, this was understandable. My grandfather had taught music for forty years at Spring Hill College. Although he was much loved by his students, he didn’t earn(挣钱) enough to provide for his large family. As a result of this example in the family, my parents strongly asked me to the college instead of a music school, and so to college I went.

Before my graduation from Columbia, the family ran into some money problems and I felt it was my duty to leave college and find a job. That was why I took a business job, which I always think of as the wasted years. I went into it for money, for being able to help the family. Money is all I got out of it. It was not enough. I felt that life was passing me by. I became very sad.

My wish was to save enough money to quit(退出) and go to Europe to study music. I continued to make money, and finally, little by little, I saved enough to go abroad.

At that time, my family got out of the trouble. ____________, and so I gave up my position and sailed for Europe. I stayed four years, worked harder than I had ever dreamed of working before, and enjoyed every minute of it.

“Enjoyed” is too soft a word. I walked on air. I really lived. When I broke away from business, it was against the advice of all my friends and family, but if I had stayed in business, I do not believe I would have made a success of living.

Money is a wonderful thing, but now I know that it is possible to pay too high a price for it.

【1】The writer gave his grandpa’s example in order to ______.

A. couldn’t find his place in a new environment   B. couldn’t make a success of living

C. felt free because he was doing what he loved   D. felt a pity for beginning new life

【4】What’s the best title of the passage?

A. Life in a Business World.   B. Money Is Success.

C. Stick to Something in Your Life.   D. Learning Music in Europe.

Write out what you need to remember over and over again. This will help you keep it in m_______longer, especially for memorizing formulas（公式）or facts.

Always review information. If you bring what you've learned back to your mind, they become easier to remember. For example, b______ you go to sleep, it's a good idea to review the new things you learned that day.

Discuss with a friend. It is always easier to remember things through discussions. You can have a discussion about what's right and what's w______, and it will lead to the right answer.
