24、

In Chinese culture, it is believed that people with fair skin are more beautiful. However, in Western culture, many people think tanned skin is prettier. The example shows that different cultures have different ideas of what is beautiful. These cultural meanings of beauty, however, are no longer important. As more and more people travel overseas, ideas about beauty are being shared. The Internet has also made it easier for people to share different types of beauty. The result is an ever-changing idea of what is beautiful.

The cultural practice of ear piercings (打耳洞), for example, has become a part of modern day culture. In Kenya, it is a tradition among the Masai men and women to pierce and then make their ear lobes (耳垂) longer using wood or stones. They then wear colorful things on their ear lobes. This is a common practice since longer ear lobes are seen as a sign of beauty. This tradition has now found its way into present-day culture. Nowadays, this might still seem unusual to some, but with more and more well-known actors and film stars showing off their longer ear lobes, it will finally become more fashionable.

It is understood that different cultures around the world have different ways of showing beauty. However, since we now live in a worldwide society, people’s views about beauty are always changing. With the help of the Internet, people are now able to easily borrow ideas from other cultures to help them stand out. So what new fashions can we expect to see in the future?

【1】What has made it easier for people to share ideas about beauty?

A．Internet.

B．Fashion.

C．Culture.

D．Tradition.

【2】What can be learned about the Masai people from the passage?

A．Longer ear lobes are their new fashion.

B．Only women make their ear lobes longer.

C．They think longer ear lobes look beautiful.

D．They make actors and film stars famous.

【3】The underlined word “them” in the last paragraph refers to ________.

A．people

B．ideas

C．cultures

D．fashions

【4】What is the passage mainly about?

A．People in Asian countries like fair skin better.

B．Beauty is considered important in many cultures.

C．Different cultures have different ideas about beauty.

D．People’s ideas about beauty are changing all the time.

25、Do you have a headache? Take an aspirin or eat bird brains. Do you want beautiful skin? Use skin cream or eat pearls. Is your hair turning gray? Color your hair or eat black rice.

“Eat bird brains, pearls, and black rice?” some people ask. “How strange!” But for many Chinese people, bird brains, pearls, and black rice are not strange things to eat. Instead, they are good medicines.

Food that people use for medicines is called medical(药用的) food. The Chinese have eaten medicinal food and spices(香辛料) for centuries. Ginger, for example, is a common spice in Chinese cooking. Ginger gives food a nice flavor. The Chinese began to use ginger many years ago. They used ginger not because it tasted good. They used ginger because it was medicinal. Ginger, they thought, was good for the digestion. It also helped people who had colds. Pepper and garlic, too, were probably medicines a long time ago.

Some people don’t believe that food and spices are good medicines. They want to buy their medicine in drugstores, not in supermarkets. Other people want to try medicinal food. They say, “Maybe medicinal food can’t help me. But it can’t hurt me, either.”

People can try medicinal food at a Chinese restaurant in San Francisco, California. The restaurant serves medicinal food. The menus at the restaurant have a list of dinners. Next to each dinner there is information about the food. The information helps people order “Queen’s Secret,” for example, is one dinner at the restaurant. This dinner has meat from chickens with black feathers. It is for women who want to look young.

【1】Why did the Chinese begin to use ginger many years ago?

A. Because it gave food different flavors

B. Because it made food more delicious

C. Because it was good for people’s health

D. Because it made people feel cold

【2】Which answer to the following questions can be found out from the passage?

A. When did the Chinese start to eat bird brains?

B. Why do women like”Queen’s Secrets”?

C. What is the advantage of using pepper?

D. How do Chinese people stop a toothache?

【3】What is the best title for the text?

A. The Medicinal Food

B. To Eat More Delicious Food

C. The Most Effective Medicine

D. Find a Good Place to Have Food

26、Some people love going to museums，while others absolutely hate it and would rather stay at home，enjoying their favorite TV shows．Increasingly，museums are being seen as outdated and boring by today's youngsters．I have just returned to the UK after travelling around the USA． While there，I visited lots of museums  I must say，museums are typically educational, either to develop knowledge gained at school in particular subjects，or to enhance knowledge of other cultures

In Chicago，we visited the world-famous Art Institute of Chicago．It was filled with paintings，drawings and sculptures by a huge variety of artists，such as Picasso，Monet，Matisse and Dali．

There was a mixture of traditional and modern art，including colorful stained glass windows and abstract art．

When we were in Washington D． C． ，we visited a few of the Smithsonian museums．These are all free to visit-which is great if you just want to see a few things，and not spend all day inside．

The Air and Space Museum was particularly good：it had lots of aircrafts and rockets on display，interesting information and also some interactive parts．We also went to the National U．S．Holocaust（纳粹大屠杀）Memorial Museum．Naturally，it was sad to read about the horrors of this tragedy which affected so many people in World War II．However，it was also incredibly interesting to read the stories of those who survived the Holocaust，as well as those who helped others．

  Last but not least，I also found the 9/11 Memorial and Museum to be of great interest．This museum is dedicated to those who lost their lives，as well as their families，when the Twin Towers in New York City were attacked by terrorists in 2001It tells you how the terrorists planned the attack，how they hijacked the planes，and ultimately what happened as a result of their actions．Surviving pieces of the towers are shown in the museum，alongside damaged fire engines．It was a truly thought-provoking visit，which made me value my own life that little bit more．

  I think museums play an important role in preserving artifacts of historical importance for future generations．Whatever your interests，there is likely to be a museum for you．You can visit waxwork museums to see models of your favorite celebrities（and get photos with the Queen！），science museums for a more hands-on，interactive visit and so much more！Best of all，if you're ever in the UK，many of them are free！

【1】The first paragraph tells us that______________．

A． people of all ages love going to museums

A． Future generations have the duty to protect museums．

B． Visiting 9/11 Memorial and Museum is educational．

C． Most museums around the world are free for students.

D． Taking photos is allowed in the Smithsonian museums.

27、Last week, my granddaughter started kindergarten(幼儿园), and certainly I wished her success. I was saying something that is not true. What I actually wish for her is failure. I believe in the importance of failure.

Success is boring. Success is proving that you can do something that you already know you can do, or do something correctly the first time, which can often be a problem for the future. First-time success is usually a fluke(侥幸). First-time failure, in fact, is the natural order of things.

Failure means how we learn. I have been told of an African phrase(短语) describing a good cook as “she who has broken many bowls”. If you’ve spent enough time in the kitchen and have broken a lot of bowls, probably you know a lot about cooking. I once had a dinner with a group of cooks, and they spent time comparing knife wounds and burn scars. They knew how much their failures gave them.

My younger daughter is a dancer. She spent three years getting ready for an act. She did it successfully for years. There was no reason for her to change the act—but she did anyway. She said she was no longer learning anything new and she was bored; and if she was bored, she couldn’t play well. So she changed the act. She risked failure in order to feed her heart.

My granddaughter is a perfectionist. But I will also, I hope, remind her of what she learned, and how she can do whatever it is better next time. I probably won’t tell her that failure is a good thing, because that’s not a lesson you can learn when you’re five. I hope I can tell her, though, that it’s not the end of the world. Indeed, with luck, it is the beginning.

【1】What did the writer really wish for her granddaughter in the kindergarten?

A. Success. B. Failure.     C. Kindness.   D. Care.

【2】The third paragraph mainly tells us   .

A. what “a good cook” means B. a cook should often cook

C. a cook must break many bowls D. failure means how we learn

【3】 Why did the younger daughter change the act?

A. Because she didn’t do well in it.

B. Because she was asked to change it.

C. Because she wanted to feed her heart.

D. Because she wanted to try a failure.

【4】What does the writer hope to tell the granddaughter?

A. Failure is a good thing.

B. She can’t fail any more.

C. Failure is not the end of the world.

D. Success is the end of the world.
