Once upon a time, there was a man who had several sheep.
1 One morning, the man discovered that one of his sheep was missing. It turned out that, during the night, a wolf had stolen his sheep through a hole in the sheep pen(羊圈).
His neighbor said to him, “you should fix up the pen and cover the hole right away to avoid further losses(损失).” But the man said, “2 那只羊已经丢了,所以我不需要修理它。” And so he didn’t listen to the neighbor.
The next morning, the man discovered that another sheep was missing. 3 The wolf stole the sheep through the hole once again. 4 那个人后悔没有听他邻居的劝告。And he covered the hole at once. From then on, no more sheep were stolen by the wolf.
The story tells us: 5 It is never too late to take action to correct mistakes and prevent future losses.

24、阅读下面短文,从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中,选出一个最佳选项。
Many kids do housework such as doing the dishes,making the bed,and folding the clothes.In exchange,they get some money or other computer time.
Paying kids for housework is one of the most popular topics,especially at a time when everyone is more careful about money.Some parents think since adults are paid to do their jobs,we should pay kids for everyday housework.
But some people don't think kids should get rewards (报酬) for doing housework.Susie Walton,an expert,believe that by rewarding kids,parents are sending a message that work isn't worth doing unless you get something in_return.“Running any kind of housework is a team effort,” Walton said.“A home is a living space for everyone in the family.It's important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house,and families decide how they want their home to look,and how they are going to keep it looking like what they want.”
Other people believe that getting a reward encourages kids to do housework,and it also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to get money.There are also apps (程序) that give kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed (兑现) either online or in the real world.“Our goal is to give kids lawful power so they can get rewards,” says Chris Bergman.“And kids need rewards to help encourage them.”
【1】Which of the following housework is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 1?
A. Washing the dishes. B. Cooking meals. C. Folding the clothes.

Little kids can learn a lot including story-telling, poems and music. They start learning by touching the contents in the books with the pen. This way kids can learn by themselves. They are also great helpers for primary school students after school. | |
Mopping robots(扫地机器人)are popular with people who are too busy to do housework. They are more popular with office ladies. They can help people clean dirt, dust and hair easily. With the help of them, people don’t need to spend much time on housework. They can enjoy a more relaxing life after work. | |
As for old people, an electric foot basin(电动洗脚盆)is the best invention. It’s a good choice to buy one for your grandparents. It can help keep their blood pressure normal and improve blood circulation(循环). The special basin can keep the water warm. So washing feet with it will help old people become healthier and more relaxed. |

27、The earth is our home. We must take care of it. Life today is easier but there are some new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. Pollution comes in many forms. It is beginning to harm our health and even our life.
Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there weren’t so many people. In other words, the more people, the more pollution. Now man is slowly polluting the whole world.
Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s not good for living things in the world.
Many countries don’t let people burn anything bad for air in houses and factories in the city. Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous pollution. It’s partly caused by heavy traffic. People say it’s best to ride bicycles. When you are riding, there is no pollution. But even in developed countries, most people don’t go to work by bicycle. It’s not because bicycles are expensive or people are tired if they ride to work. It’s because cars are more convenient (方便的), so more people go to work by car, and then the situation is getting worse and worse. In my opinion, we can make it difficult and expensive for drivers to drive their cars into the city. They will go back to use their bicycles.
【1】From the passage, life today is easier but there are some new problems, and one of the biggest problems is _________.
A.food
B.pollution
C.traffic
【2】Many years ago, the problem was not so _________ because there weren’t so many people.
A.serious
B.light
C.simple
【3】What kind of pollution is still the most serious?
A.Rubbish.
B.Water.
C.Air.
【4】Why don’t most people go to work by bicycle?
A.Because bicycles are expensive.
B.Because cars are more convenient.
C.Because cars are cheap.
【5】From the passage, what do you think is the best way to go to work in the future?
A.Taking a car.
B.Taking a bus.
C.Riding a bicycle.

How to improve English seems to be a difficult thing for lots of students. Here are some suggestions for you.
First, Listening is the 【1】 (秘密) to language learning. You must listen to the teacher carefully. You should also listen to the English news on the radio from VOA or BBC. It’s a little difficult, so you should be 【2】 (耐心的) while listening. Sometimes you need to 【3】 (重复) out loud. It’s also a good idea to take 【4】 (笔记) in your English class.
Second, you should read more. You can read the 【5】 (课本) and English articles to learn some useful words and sentences. And try to 【6】 (连接) them together and 【7】(复习) them from time to time. Don’t read word by word. You should pay 【8】(注意) to the main idea. If you do, your reading will become better.
Finally, it is necessary to take every chance to practice. For example, you should find a 【9】 (搭档) to practice English with or take a(an) 【10】 (活跃的) part in the English corner. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes. “Practice makes perfect.”
I hope the above suggestions could be helpful in improving your English.
