24、   Plants and animals have some very clever design features (特征). Scientists study these models. Then they can make new products using the ideas from nature.

Copying what we see in nature can improve how we travel. Japan’s first super-fast trains pushed air through tunnels at high speeds. When a train came out of a tunnel, it made a loud noise. Kingfisher birds hardly make a splash (溅水声) when they dive into water. Engineers changed the front of the trains to match the shape of the kingfisher. Then the air passed over the trains. The problem was solved!

People look underwater for ideas, too. Sharks have skin covered in special scales ( 鳞 ). These scales help sharks move quickly through water. Scientists have copied sharks’ skin to make swimsuits. Aircraft engineers also copied the scales. They made a coating for the wings of airplanes that is similar to sharks’ skin. Both the swimmers and the airplanes now travel faster.

Scientists studied how dolphins communicate to solve a big problem. Some earthquakes happening on the sea floor can cause tsunamis (海啸). People need to be warned if a tsunami is coming. Scientists use special tools to gather information on the sea floor. Then the information is sent to the surface as sounds. But on the way, the sounds can get muddled, so the scientists may not hear them.

Scientists studied the way dolphins “talk”. Dolphins have a clever way to send messages through water. Their system is better than some of our systems. Now, experts have copied the way dolphins send messages. This will help them track tsunami waves. Nature’s designs are built to last. When we observe the natural world, we can find wonderful ways to improve our lives. What ideas from nature will people borrow next?

The possibilities are endless!

【1】What did engineers copy from the kingfisher bird?

A.Its high speeds. B.Its special looks.

C.Its sound when it’s flying. D.Its ability to travel in water.

【2】What can we learn from Paragraph 3?

A.Swimmers can swim as fast as sharks now.

B.Engineers have copied ideas from swimsuits.

C.People have copied ideas from sharks.

D.Shark scales are used to make wings of planes.

【3】What does the underlined word “muddled” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?

A.Not clear. B.Very loud.

C.Really strange. D.Quite terrible.

【4】What is the purpose of the system inspired by dolphins?

A.To look for dolphins. B.To help people ride waves.

C.To keep tsunamis away. D.To give early warnings.

25、People often say that an Englishman’s home is his castle. They mean that the home is very important and personal. Most people in Britain live in houses rather than in flats, and many people own their homes. They can paint and change them in any way they like. In a crowded city everyone knows that he or she has private space that is only for himself or herself and for invited friends.

People usually like to mark their space. Are you sitting on a beach or a train or in a library? If you are on the beach you may have spread your sands around you; on the train you may have put your coat or a small bag on the seat beside you; in a library you may have one corner or chair which is your own.

Once I was traveling on a train to London. I was in a section for four people and there was a table between us. The man sitting opposite me had his bag on the table. There was no space on my side of the table at all. I was made rather angry. Maybe he thought that he owned the whole table! I took some newspapers out of my bag and put them on his. When I did this he sat up straight at once, opening his eyes wide. I had invaded（侵占）his space! A few minutes later, I took my newspapers off his bag in order to read them. He at once moved his bag to his side of the table.

【1】The English call their homes “castles” because ____________.

A. they don’t make friend with others

B. they are very important persons

C. they don’t want to stay with others

D. homes provide them with their own space

【2】The word “private”  in the first paragraph means _____________.

A. 私人的   B. 公共的   C. 相邻的   D. 隐蔽的

【3】According to the passage, if an Englishman is on the beach, he will probably ________ to show his own space to others.

A. cover himself with sands

B. sit in another person’s chair

C. spread sands around him

D. talk loudly with his friends

【4】Why did the writer get angry ? Because ____________

A. the man’s bag fell on the writer’s foot.

B. the man’s bag was on the writer’s seat.

C. the man didn’t leave space for the writer on the table.

D. the man’s bag prevented the writer looking out of the window.

【5】The writer put his newspapers on the man’s bag in order to ___________.

A. invade the man’s space

B. let the man move his bag to his side

C. take the man’s seat

26、   Tim and Jim lived in the same village. They were both hard-working and had a happy life with other villagers.

But that year, there was a serious drought(旱灾) happening in their village. Their fields were all dry and their crops were dying. They couldn’t get enough water for their crops until a visitor from a village next to theirs came. The visitor told them that there was a spring on the mountain near their village and it had a large amount of water to water their fields. So Tim went to find it with two big buckets(桶) at once and later he began to carry water for his field every morning. He earned water from morning to night, but that wasn’t enough for his field. Jim also went to find the spring with Tim, but he didn’t carry water the next day. He also left the village in the early morning and then came back at night. Three days had passed, many villagers didn’t see Jim in the daytime. They began to ask him where he went. Jim smiled and just told them to wait for his good news. Then the next day, at noon, Jim and a line of pieces of bamboo appeared in front of his field. When he joined the last piece of bamboo from the mountain with another one’s end, water ran along them into his field. With Jim’s help, all the other villagers’ fields got water by joining pieces of bamboo with his and were saved. And Tim needn’t carry water with two heavy buckets, either.

There’s no doubt that being hard-working is a good quality. But hard work with good ideas is much better.

根据短文内容判断正误，正确的写（A），错误的写（B）。

【1】Tim and Jim lived a hard-working and happy life until a visitor from a village next to theirs came.

【2】The crops in their fields were all facing the danger of death when a visitor came from a neighbor village.

【3】Just Jim carried water from the spring every day.

【4】Jim didn’t tell the others until the fourth day because the spring water wasn’t enough for all of them.

【5】The writer tries to tell us that we should not only work hard but also use our wisdom.

27、   Fun and practical, these apps are worth downloading

*Forest

When working on your homework, you might sometimes find that your smart phone is distracting （使分心） you. An app called Forest can help you stay focused. When you set a new task in the app and set a certain amount of time to finish it, a tree seed will be “planted” in the app. If you keep finishing your task, the seed will grow into a tree. But if you close the app and play with your phone instead, the tree will wither and even die. Once you finish the task, your tree will be “planted” in the app. Gradually, you will have a forest! You can share your achievements with your friends and try to “plant” different kinds of trees.

It’s hard to get out of bed every morning. You might hit the “snooze” button（“打盹”按钮） on your alarm clock again and again just to get a little more sleep. However, the Rocket Alarm Clock app can help!

The app’s alarm cannot be easily turned off. You have to shake your phone wildly, solve difficult math problems, or even blow into your phone’s microphone to turn it off. For example, in one of the app’s modes, there are some unidentified flying objects( UFOs) that are attacking（攻击） the earth. You have to blow hard on your microphone to get rid of（摆脱） the UFOs and turn off the alarm.

*Xiawen

This app makes reading news feel like chatting with a friend. News stories pop up（弹出） just like a text message from a friend.  If you’re interested, you can click “read on”. If not, just click “new one”.

"When a need comes out in my life, I have to trust God to give help. I have learned most of the time I don't need half of what I think I do. He has n【5】 let me down. Since I learned that 'secret', I am happy."

After hearing Mary's secret, Tom's first thought was, "That's too simple!" But he recalled how he thought a bigger house would make him happy, but it d【6】!
