24、If you won a lottery and had lots of money, what would you do? Most people start by buying themselves things, such as a new car or a bigger TV.

Many people who win lots of money may suddenly find that they have a lot of socalled(所谓的)friends. The new friends they make may follow them for their money but they may also leave them when all the money is spent. Besides that, they can’t decide what to do with the money, so they try to think what they want. In the end, most people usually decide to save the money.

There are some lottery winners who decide to quit(辞职)their jobs, because they think they have enough money and don’t need to work any longer. Some big lottery winners make even bigger changes—they end their marriages. They think that winning a lot of money has suddenly made them more intelligent and more attractive(有吸引力的).So they feel that they have to be with a younger or more attractive man or woman.

They don’t know their new money is just a bit of luck.  It can’t change everything.

25、

The FIFA World Cup 2022 has begun in Qatar. It is the biggest and also the most eye-catching sporting event in the world. But this year’s event looks quite different for two main reasons.

First, it’s the first time in history that the event is happening in winter, from Nov. 20 to Dec. 18. This is because Qatar is a desert country and in summer the temperature can be as high as 42℃. So it’s too hot to play outdoor sports. But it’s still warm in winter. The temperature in the stadiums (体育场) can be around 20℃ to 30℃, which is just right for the event.

Another reason is that Chinese elements(元素), from brand support to construction(建筑), can be found both on and off the field. The idea of “Made in China” is also catching the world’s attention.       

According to Global Data, a data analysis and consulting company based in London, Chinese companies have put $1.4 billion (about 10 billion yuan) into the event, making them its biggest sponsors(赞助商).

China Railway Construction Corporation designed and built the Lusail Stadium. With 80,000 seats, it’s the largest of the eight stadiums for the World Cup. As the main stadium, it will hold the closing ceremonies and 10 games, including the final. Besides the stadium, Chinese companies from Guangdong and Zhejiang have provided more than 10,000 container houses for tourists and soccer fans to live in.

“The World Cup sponsorship by a large number of Chinese companies shows China’s economic power and makes the world feel the power of Chinese brands,” Song Xiangqing, vice-president of the Commerce Economy Association of China, told China Daily.

26、You may never know how valuable something is when it can not be fixed. And it could be a lovely moment you lose forever.

I grew up with very practical parents. My mother washed aluminum foil (铝箔纸) after she cooked in it, then reused it. She was the recycle queen, before they had a name for it.

My father was happier getting old shoes fixed than buying new ones. Their marriage was good. Their dreams focused. Their best friends lived so near. I can see them now, Dad in trousers, T-shirt and a hat and Mum in a house dress, lawn mower (割草机) in one hand, dishtowel in the other.

It was the time for fixing things — a curtain rod (杆), the kitchen radio, the oven door, the hem (褶边) in a dress — things we kept.

It was a way of life, and sometimes it made me crazy. I wanted just once to be wasteful. Waste somewhat meant affluence (富裕). Throwing things away meant you knew there would always be more.

But then my mother died, and on that clear summer’s night, in the warmth of the hospital room, I was struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn’t any more.

Sometimes what we care about most gets all used up and goes away… never to return. So, while we have it, it’s best we love it, care for it, fix it when it’s broken, and heal it when it’s sick.

This is true for marriage, old cars and children with bad report cards, dogs with bad hips, aging parents and grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it, because we are worth it.

【1】The writer really wanted to tell us   .

A. her mum was the recycle queen.

B. her dad liked fixing old shoes.

C. throwing things meant there would be more

D. we should cherish (珍惜) what we care about while we have it

【2】What does the underlined word “struck” mean?

A. knocked B. touched C. stuck D. caught

【3】Which of the following is NOT mentioned according to the passage?

A. Fixing things is a way of life.

B. Waste somewhat meant affluence.

C. The writer’s family was very poor.

D. The writer’s parents were practical.

27、   China is the home of tea, which has more than 4000 years of history. Among the three main drinks—tea, coffee and cocoa, tea is drunk by the largest number of people in the world. Tea from China, along with silk and porcelain, began to be known by the world over a thousand years ago.

The words for “tea” in different languages came from the Chinese character “cha”. The English word, “tea”, sounds similar to the pronunciation of it in Xiamen.

Tea leaves are produced mainly in the south of China because of the mild climate and rich soil there. Longiing, Pu’ er, Wulong and Tieguanyin are all famous tea.
