24、   Hard Work Makes Dreams Come True

Astronaut Ellen Ochoa shows that with a good education and hard work, you can reach for the stars. Ochoa is the first Hispanic astronaut woman to fly into space.

As a child, Ochoa didn’t know what she wanted to be when she grew up. But her mother always told her to stay in school and study hard. She listened to her mother. When she was 13 years old, she won a spelling contest. In high school, Ochoa spent many hours each week studying for all her classes. She finished with the best grades in her class. After high school, Ochoa went to college. One day in college she heard that the U.S. government had chosen six women to become astronauts. At that time, Ochoa decided to become an astronaut, too.

Her many years of hard work paid off at last. She was asked to be an astronaut in 1990. In April, 1993 in the space shuttle(航天飞机) named Discovery, she made history by becoming the first Hispanic woman to travel to space. Ochoa and the other astronauts had many jobs while on the Discovery. One of her tasks was to use the shuttle’s robot arm to move large objects. Ochoa used a computer to make the arm pick up a satellite and put it into space. A satellite is a spacecraft that moves around the earth or some other objects. Satellites can take pictures and gather information about planets and stars. During her second trip in 1994, she used the robot arm again. She used the arm to pull in a satellite from space. The satellite had been used to study the air around the earth. Then Ochoa went to two more shuttle trips. Altogether, she spent a whole month in space. That’s more than 700 hours. 

Ochoa knows that she is a hero to many young people. She often tells them the same thing her mother told her when she was a little girl. “Get a good education and believe in yourself,” says Ochoa.

【1】When did Ochoa decide to become an astronaut?

A. When she was in college. B. When she was 13 years old.

C. Before she went to high school. D. After she went to work.

【2】On the Discovery, Ochoa used the robot arm to ______ .

A. repair the shuttle’s computer B. take pictures of the earth

C. gather information about planets D. put a satellite into space

【3】Ochoa probably advises the young people to ______ .

A. fly into space one day B. become scientists some day

C. do their best in school D. learn how to use robot arms

25、   Reading is the key to success in all school subjects. With a bit of creativity, you can help your child enjoy reading more, and encourage him to do more!

Buy or borrow a lot of “fun” books. Choose books that are slightly below his level of reading ability. Don’t forget what your child likes to do when choosing books for him. Don’t comment about the books. Simply leave the books lying on the table where your child is sure to see them. Computer games are not as harmful as most parents usually think them to be. Instead, you should take advantage of your child’s love of computer games to purchase those that require a lot of reading and avoid those that are simply computerized video games.

Buy your child a bedside reading lamp, or a tiny book light. Tell him that from now on, he must be in bed by a specific time (say 8:30) and that he can either sleep or read. Most kids will do anything else rather than go to sleep, so there’s a chance you’ll create a new bedtime reading habit.

Many children will read when they are sitting alone having a snack, or when they have a few minutes of unplanned free time. Put a box of books and magazines near the kitchen table so that reading material is accessible.

Often, once children learn to read independently, parents stop reading to them. This change of routine causes great sadness to a child who has come to love falling asleep as you read. Even a teenager will enjoy being read to if you pick books that interest him. Select books together, and make sure they’re ones you enjoy as well, so your enjoyment will come through as you read to them.

【1】To make children become interested in reading, parents should ________.

A.choose the easiest books for them to read

B.tell them what they can learn from these books

C.choose books based on their interest

D.always read books together with them

【2】Which of the following is NOT what parents are advised to do?

A.Pick the right computer games. B.Reduce children’s sleeping time. C.Have reading material available.   D.Read to children when possible.

【3】The main idea of the passage is to ________.

A.help children succeed in school subjects

B.teach parents how to encourage children to read

C.remind parents of the importance of reading

D.give parents advice on how to educate children

【4】According to the passage, why should parents set a specific bedtime for their children?

A.To ensure their children have enough sleep.

B.Because their children are too naughty and make noises.

C.Because children will do anything else rather than go to sleep.

here were a lot of cars and buses and trucks in the square. So the taxi-driver asked, “Are you afraid to cross the street,” “Oh, no,” said the young lady, “but I said that I would meet that young man for lunch at one o’clock, and it is now a quarter to two.

28、阅读短文，根据语篇要求填空，使短文通顺，意思完整。每空限填一词。

An old man went to India. When he got there, he saw some fruit for sale, but most of it was very cheap. 【1】 cheapest thing was a basket of red fruit.

“How much per kilo? the old man asked.

“Two rupees(卢比),” the shopkeeper answered. Two rupees in India is almost nothing, so the old man bought a whole kilogram and started eating it.

However, as soon as he started eating, his mouth began to burn, his eyes began to water, and his whole face became as red 【2】 the fruit. As he coughed and struggled to breathe, he jumped up and down, screaming: “Ah! Ah! Ah!”

And yet he continued to eat the fruit. Some people 【3】 were looking at him shook their heads and said, “You are crazy! Those are chili peppers (辣椒)! You can’t just eat them by the handful!”

The old man said to 【4】, “I paid for them, so I must eat them.”

This old man seemed pretty stupid. But are we so much smarter? All of us have spent money and time on something--maybe a relationship, or a business, or a job- -and sometimes, even if we know there’s no hope that things will change, we still continue with it.

What we can learn 【5】the old man is this: if you’ve lost a lot over something that doesn’t work, let it go and move on. It’s better than continuing to lose.
