24、   We often reach a point in our life when we should be ready for change that will help us unlock our self-improvement power. However, there’s always something staring at us right under our nose but we don’t see it. The only time we think of unlocking our self-improvement power is when everything gets worst.

When do we realize that we need to change diets? When none of our shirts and jeans fit us. When do we stop eating candies and chocolates? When all of our teeth have fallen off. When do we realize that we need to stop smoking? When our lungs have gone bad. We think about changing only when the whole world is falling apart. We think and feel this way because it is not easy to change, but change becomes more painful when we ignore(忽 视) it.

Unlocking our self-improvement power means unlocking ourselves out of the box of thought that we are just the way we are. It is such a poor excuse for people who fear change.

Jane always tells everyone that she doesn’t have the courage to be with groups of people. She heard her family tell the same things about her to other people. Over the years, that is what Jane has believed. Every time a great crowd come, she steps back and locks herself in a room. Jane not only believes in her story, but lives it!

Exercising three times a week would result in a healthier life. Reading books every day would build up knowledge. And only when we are enjoying unlocking our self-improvement power will we realize that we’re beginning to take things light and become happy.

【1】The writer mentions the three questions in Paragraph 2 to show that ________.

A.we learn our lessons when we experience pain

B.we are responsible for the problems we meet

C.life fails us when we get into the wrong way

D.life is a long journey full of ups and downs

【2】According to the passage, what is the key to solving Jane’s problem?

A.She needs to remember why she started.

B.She has to know how to get on with people.

C.She has to realize she is not what she is in her story.

D.She needs to understand the importance of confidence.

【3】The writer probably agrees that ________.

A.ignoring change can make us happier

B.people change when they find it easy to do that

C.welcoming change in life helps us to become better

D.enjoying self-improvement makes life more difficult

【4】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A.Is it important to take things light?

B.Is it necessary to face challenges?

C.To hold on to the last moment or to give up?

D.To unlock ourselves out of the box or to stay in it?

27、   Sometimes people come into your life and you know that they were sure to be there at once. They may come for some reasons: teach you a lesson or help to find out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be: your classmate, neighbor, teacher, long-lost friend or even a real stranger. But you know that they will affect (影响) your life in some serious ways.

28、   People all over the world celebrate the new year. However, not all c【1】 celebrate it in the same way, and in some places, the new year doesn't begin on, the same date every year.

In many countries, the new year b【2】 on 1st January, but people start celebrating on 31st December, New Year's Eve. In New York many people go to celebrate in Times Square. While they're w【3】 for the New Year, they listen to music, sing songs and have fun. Just before 12 o'clock, everyone counts down from 10:10,9,8.… As soon as it's 12o'clock, everyone s【4】very loudly, "Happy New Year!"
