25、   I left my hometown in London last year and now I have enjoyed working in this small city in China. Learning a foreign language opens you up to the culture and history of a country. So in order to know more about China, I started to learn Chinese.

But at times, I found myself in funny situations. When I greeted strangers in China, they began to talk a lot and very fast. They asked me questions about everything. But all I could do was to look at them with a blank face. I had no idea what they were talking about. Were they just being kind, funny or impolite? Many people want to make friends with me. But I am a bit upset when I find out the reason why they need a foreign friend. They say they want to practice their English. I don’t need friends like this. I like friends to share my feelings and ideas with.

However, the more Chinese I learn, the more similarities I find it has with English. In English, thick-skinned is to describe a person who doesn’t care for criticism (批评). I was surprised to find that houlianpi in Chinese means the same. And both languages share some common idioms (习语). For example, “look on with folded arms” means xiushoupangguan, and “burn the boats” is similar to pofuchenzhou.

I’m still on my journey to learn Chinese. I believe that sometimes you have the most fun on a journey.

【1】The writer comes from __________.

A.the UK B.the USA C.Australia D.Canada

【2】Many Chinese want to make friends with the writer because__________  .

A.they are interested in Western culture

B.they want a partner to practice English with

C.they are willing to share feelings and ideas with him

D.they want to help foreigners with their Chinese

【3】The underlined word “similarities” means “__________” in Chinese.

A.相似点 B.不同点 C.规律性 D.重要性

【4】A thick-skinned person may __________.

A.be very strong and seldom fall ill

B.like to criticize others for their mistakes

C.talk a lot and speak fast

D.feel OK when he’s criticized

【5】If there would be a paragraph before the last paragraph of the text, it most probably would be about __________.

A.the reasons why he wants to learn Chinese

B.the similarities Chinese and English share

C.the differences between Chinese and English

D.the importance of learning Chinese and English

26、根据短文内容，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个能填入相应空格内的最佳答案。

If you watch the sky for about an hour after the sun goes down, you may see some “moving stars”. But they’re not real stars. They’re man-made satellites(人造卫星). And the biggest of all is the International Space Station (ISS). From May to July is the best season to watch the ISS flying over the earth. And people can see it with their eyes.

The ISS is the biggest satellite and scientists want to live on it. They think that the best way to learn more about space is to live there.

When the space station is finished, it will be like a city in space. People will stay and study there with many of the things they have at home. Laboratories, living rooms and power stations are being built. The ISS is the most expensive space program. Billions of dollars are being spent on it every year.

Scientists hope that the ISS will be a stepping stone for future space exploration(探测). “The ISS will help us understand the human body better, explore space and study the earth. It can help us make life on the earth better,” said Kathryn Clark, an ISS scientist.

Sixteen countries are part of the program: the US, Russia, Canada, Japan, Brazil and 11 European countries. China isn’t an ISS country, but it has helped with some of the experiments. In 2003, China sent some rice up to the ISS to find out what space would do to it.

【1】The International Space Station_____________.

A.is really a big city in space B.is the biggest man-made satellite

【2】From the passage we know that_____________.

【3】The phrase “a stepping stone” probably means“_____________”.

【4】China sent some rice up to the ISS is probably to_____________.

A.be used as astronauts’ food B.sell it to aliens

27、   A smile will tell people around you that you are a kind and friendly person. However, many people don’t smile because they think they have ugly teeth. For example, one of my classmates, Mike, doesn’t have very nice teeth, so that is why he seldom opens his mouth. He even says that he has lost confidence because of his teeth. So it is very important for us to look after our teeth. In fact, a lot of people have this problem. Some people inherit teeth problems from their parents, while others’ teeth are damaged because of bad habits, like heavy smoking, eating too much sugar or not brushing teeth often. If your teeth are in bad shape, you should see a dentist and ask for help. They can help improve your teeth and tell you how to take care of them.

Smiling can help you to feel more confidence and make people think of you as a more friendly person. If you want to keep healthy, you should not only smile but also laugh. An Indian doctor called Kataria said that young children should laugh about 30 times a day, while adults should laugh between 7 and 15 times a day. So please take this chance to smile and laugh now.

【1】What has made Mike lose his confidence?

A.His bad habit B.His bad teeth

C.Not smiling D.Eating too much sugar

【2】Many people don’t smile because _________.

A.they don’t like smiling B.they think they are ugly

C.their teeth are not beautiful D.they can’t open their mouths

【3】What can a dentist do according to the passage?

A.A dentist can tell you how to improve your bad teeth

B.A dentist can help you to take care of your bad teeth

C.A dentist can tell you how to brush your teeth

D.Both A and B

【4】If you want to keep healthy, you had better _________.

A.not smile often B.laugh all the time

C.neither smile nor laugh D.smile and even laugh often

【5】How many times should a child laugh every day in doctor Kataria’s opinion?

A.Either 20 or 30 times a day B.Between 7 and 15 times a day

C.Around 30 times a day D.Only 30 times a day

28、用括号内所给词的适当形式填空，使语篇意思完整，必要时请用否定式。

Did you know that tea, the 【1】(popular) drink in the world (after water), was invented by accident? Many people believe that tea was first drunk about 5000 years ago. It is said that a Chinese ruler called Shen Nong was the first 【2】 (discover) tea as a drink. One day Shen Nong 【3】 (boil) drinking water over an open fire. Some leaves from a tea plant fell into the water and remained there for some time. It produced a nice smell so he tasted the brown water. It was quite delicious, and so, one of the world's favorite 【4】(drink) was invented. A few【5】 (thousand) years later, Lu Yu, "the saint of tea", mentioned Shen Nong in his book Cha Jing. The book describes how tea plants were grown and used to make tea. It also 【6】 (discuss) where the finest tea leaves were produced and what kinds of water were used. It is believed that tea 【7】 (bring) to Korea and Japan during the 6th and 7th centuries. In England, tea 【8】(appear) until around 1660, but in less than 100 years, it had become the national drink. The tea trade from China to 【9】(west) countries took place in the 19th century. This helped to spread the popularity of tea and the tea plant to more places around the world. Even though many people now know about tea culture, the Chinese are without doubt the ones who best understand the 【10】(natural) of tea.

A team of students who were successful in their work got together to visit their old teacher after graduating from college many years later. The talk soon turned into complaints about      in work and life.

Before offering his students coffee, the teacher went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and different kinds of cups—plastic, glass, porcelain(陶瓷), crystal(水晶), some common and cheap, some beautiful and   —telling them to help themselves to the coffee.

God makes the coffee, not the cups. Enjoy your coffee!
