24、   Imagine this, somebody hides free books on the subway for you to find and read. Sounds exciting? Well, British actress Emma Watson, 26, is doing it! She is known for acting as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movies.

Watson hid 100 copies of a book called Mom & Me & Mom (2013) on London's subway. The book is from US writer Maya Angelou. It tells about the writer's relationship with her mother. Watson wrote of the book.“This book is one I have read before and is one of my favorites. I can't wait to hear your thoughts!” These books were put in different places on the subway. People saw Watson doing the same thing on the New York Subway this month.

With each book, there is a handwritten note by Watson. She asked people to “take special care of the books” if they found them. She also wrote that “when you are finished, please leave it on the subway again for someone else to find”.

Watson's work is part of a movement called Books on the Underground. It calls on people to leave their books on the subway, so other people can enjoy them too.

Hollie Belton, a woman in London, started the movement in 2012. She loves reading on the subway. She noticed that a lot of people shared her habit, so she got the idea. Over the years, Belton has left over 2,000 books of her own. The movement has attracted more and more people.

Watson is a book lover as well. That's why she tried it. Earlier this year, Watson set up her own online book club Our Shared Shelf She reads a book every month with others. Mom & Me & Mom is the club's book for November.

25、“Dad,” I say one day, “let’s take a trip. Why don’t you fly and meet me?”

My father has just retired after 27 years as a manager for IBM. His job filled his day, his thoughts and his life. When he woke up and took a warm shower, I screamed under a freezing waterfall in Peru. When he tied a tie and put on the same Swiss watch, I rowed a boat across Lake of the Ozarks.

My father sees me drifting aimlessly, nothing to show for my 33 years but a passport full of funny stamps. He wants me to settle down, but now I want him to find an adventure.

He agrees to travel with me through the national parks. We meet four weeks later in Rapid City.

“What is our first stop?” asks my father.

“What time is it?”

“Still don’t have a watch?”

Less than an hour away is Mount Rushmore. As he stares up at the four Presidents carved in granite (花岗岩), his mouth and eyes open slowly, like those of a little boy.

“Unbelievable,” he says, “How was this done?”

A film in the information center shows sculptor Gutzon Borglum devoted 14 years to the sculpture(雕像) and then left the final touches to his son.

We stare up and I ask myself, “Would I ever devote my life to anything?”

No directions, no goals. I used to hear those words in my father’s voice. Now I hear them in my own.

The next day we’re at Yellowstone National Park, where we have a picnic.

“Have you ever travelled with your dad?” I ask.

“Only once,” he says. “I never spoke much with my father. We loved each other—but never said it. Whatever he could give me, he gave.”

The last sentence—it’s probably the same thing I’d say about my father. And what I’d want my child to say about me.

In Glacier National Park, my father says, “I’ve never seen water so blue.” I have, in several places of the world. I can keep traveling and I realize—maybe a regular job won’t be as dull as I feared.

Weeks after our trip, I call my father.

“The photos from the trip are wonderful,” he says. “We have got to take another trip like that sometime.”

I tell him I’ve decided to settle down, and I’m wearing a watch.

【1】We can learn from Paragraphs 2 and 3 that the father ________.

A．followed the fashion

B．got bored with his job

C．was unhappy with the author’s lifestyle

D．liked the author’s collection of stamps

【2】What does the author realize at Mount Rushmore?

A．He should have a specific aim in life.

B．His father is as innocent as a little boy.

C．He should learn sculpture in the future.

D．His father is interested in sculpture.

【3】From the underlined paragraph, we can see that the author ________.

A．wants his children to learn from their grandfather

B．comes to understand what parental love means

C．learns how to communicate with his father

D．hopes to give whatever he can to his father

【4】What could be inferred about the author and his father from the end of the story?

B．The Swiss watch has drawn them closer.

C．They decide to learn photography together.

D．They begin to change their attitudes to life.

26、Is the whale the world’s largest fish? No. It looks like a fish, but it is really a mammal. （哺乳动物）Then what’s the world’s largest fish? It’s the whale shark.

Although the whale shark is our biggest fish and lives in many oceans around the world, few people have ever heard of it. Scientists have not been studying whale sharks for very long. Much more needs to be learned about them.

A whale shark is sometimes called a “gentle giant”. It likes to be alone and doesn’t care a bit about divers or humans. The biggest whale shark weighed 24,250 pounds and was nearly 40 feet long. This makes it heavier and longer than a school bus.

Inside its huge mouth are great numbers of very small teeth. To count all of them, you’ll need to do some maths. The whale shark’s teeth are arranged in rows. There are between eleven and thirteen rows on each jaw (颚) and around three hundred teeth in each row.

However, the whale shark rarely uses its teeth. It does not chew or bite its food. Large amounts of water are pulled into its mouth and then pushed out through its gills (鳃).

For a few months every year, a group of whale sharks comes to Ningaloo Reef, off Western Australia. This gives scientists a wonderful chance to study the large fish. Whale sharks do live in other oceans of the world, but no one knows their population. It is possible that our biggest fish may need protecting. It is one of the reasons why scientists continue to learn all they can about these gentle giants.

27、   It’s 2012. You feel sick, so you go to the doctor. She checks your fever, looks at your throat, and asks what you’ve been thinking about lately. When you leave, she gives you some medicine, but also a list of thinking skills that you are supposed to practice daily. She says that the way you think is causing some of your illness.

Doctors and other scientists who study the human mind and try to explain why people behave in the way that they do, called psychologists, are starting to believe it. You know that your brain is connected to every part of your body through your nervous system(神经系统). Now scientists have proved that how you think and feel can have an influence on the health of your body.

Stress(压力，紧张) is caused whenever there is a problem or a change in your life. Of course, everybody has stress more or less; nobody’s life is perfect. In fact, stress is necessary. Without stress, we would never learn anything or grow or change. We would probably be bored to death. But too much stress can hurt you. It can weaken your body’s protection so that you are more likely to catch diseases. It can even make you more likely to have an accident.

When you feel stress, your brain sends a message to your body to produce a chemical called adrenaline(肾上腺素). Adrenaline speeds up your breathing and your heart beat. Today you have a different kind of stress. Problems like endless homework or troubles with your family are the kind of things you can’t fight or run away from, so you don’t use up all that adrenaline. It just stays bottled up inside you, and that’s what can do something bad to you.

What can you do about stress? First, you can try to find ways to change things so you aren’t under so much stress. You can set up a plan to finish homework or go to a doctor or a psychologist to try to work things out with your family or your friends. But sometimes you can’t change a stressful situation. Sometimes you don’t even want to. A big change might be a good change, but it will still be stressful.

The link(关联) between your body and brain works in two ways. Your body can help your mind deal with stress. If you are under stress, you need to take especially good care of your body. It’s important to get enough sleep and eat nutritious meals. Some people take a vitamin-mineral pill every day. Another thing that you can do is daily exercise. If you go walking or do aerobic dancing or work out at the gym, you give your body a chance to burn up some of that adrenaline. Of course, a person who isn’t used to much physical activity should start slowly. Anyone with a continuing physical problem should check with a doctor before starting any exercise programs.

【1】A psychologist is a person who may help you with your ________.

A.illness and abilities B.thoughts and behavior

C.mind and nervous system D.physical activity and daily exercise

【2】Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A.You shouldn’t go to the gym if you are under stress.

B.One can do his homework to burn up adrenaline.

C.Diseases and accidents are caused by stress.

D.Everyone needs stress to improve himself.

【3】From the last sentence of Paragraph 5 we can infer that ________.

A.it’s difficult to change a stressful situation

B.it’s not stressful when a good change takes place

C.a big change will cause another stressful situation

D.a stressful situation can’t be changed without any effort

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

A.The Body-Brain Link. B.The Causes of Stress.

C.The Advice on Health. D.The Nervous System.
