22、If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak, when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory (记忆) works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance (机会) to become strong.

If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault (过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents may be blamed (责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can't read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write, they have to remember them. Since they cannot write them down in a small notebook, they have to remember days, names, songs and stories. Therefore, their memory is being exercised the whole time.

So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practise remembering things in a way as other people do.

【1】Someone can't have a good memory if ________.

A．he can't read or write

B．he doesn't use his memory

C．his parents don't have a good memory

D．he doesn't use his arms or legs for some time

【2】If you do not use your arms or legs for some time, ________.

A．you can't use them any more

B．they will become stronger

C．they become weak but they slowly become strong again

D．they become weak and won't become strong until you use them again

【3】Which of the following is TRUE?

A．Your memory works in the different way as your arms or legs.

B．Your memory becomes weak if you do not give it enough chance for practice.

C．Don't learn how to read and write if you want to have a better memory.

D．A good memory comes from less practice.

【4】Few people know that it is only ________ if a friend has a poor memory.

A．his own fault

B．his parents' fault

C．his teachers' fault

D．his grandmother's fault

【5】The writer wants to tell us ________.

A．how to use our arms or legs

B．how to read and write

C．how to have a good memory

D．how to learn from the people

23、   Do you like bananas? They taste good and you can have them without washing. However, British scientists say that the fruit may die out by 2050.

One reason for this is climate change. Scientists at the University of Exeter collected data(数据)from 27 countries that produce 86% of the world's bananas. They found that climate change made people harvest more bananas.

However, if temperatures keep going higher, this advantage will disappear. Some countries, like India, the world's biggest producer of bananas, will produce(生产)fewer bananas. By 2050, the fruit may die out.

Shouldn't bananas grow more easily if it's hotter outside? In fact, the perfect temperature for growing bananas is between 24℃ and 32℃. If temperatures get too high, they will stop growing.

Diseases are another danger to bananas. Unlike other crops, all banana plants have the same genotype(基因型). In other words, if a disease is able to kill one plant, it could kill them all.

One serious disease is called Panama. It spreads easily. It has spread across South Asia, Africa, Middle East, and Australia. If one banana plantation(种植园)develop the disease, it will take 30 years until it is able to grow bananas again. Scientists haven't found a good way to deal with this disease till now.

【1】If temperatures keep going higher, maybe _____________________.

A.more countries will begin to grow bananas B.bananas will harvest better in most countries

C.there won't be any bananas in the future D.bananas will be more delicious than before

【2】What does the underlined word "this" in Paragraph 2refer to(指的是)?

A.The taste of bananas. B.People's love for bananas

C.The dying out of bananas in the future. D.The advantages of eating bananas.

【3】What's the perfect temperature for growing bananas?

A.24℃ and31℃. B.24℃ and 32℃. C.24℃ and 33℃. D.24℃ and 34℃

【4】The purpose(意图)of this story is to ________________.

A.give some advice on growing bananas B.tell us why bananas may die out

C.show how hard to grow bananas D.tell us the environment of bananas' growing

24、       The Chinese tradition of giving gifts of money in red envelopes at Lunar New Year has turned into big business for Web giants Alibaba and Tencent, which now both offer electronic “hong bao”.

       At the end of each lunar year, it is common in China to give children hong bao—some money in envelopes that are red, the colour of success. But now the old also take part in this activity.

       It is now possible to exchange “red envelopes” with smartphone, which is popular in China and has caused a battle(战争) for the lucrative market between the two companies providing the service, Tencent and Alibaba.

       “You don’t have to pay the same cost or wait as long as you would for a traditional bank transfer(转账). It’s more convenient, simple and fun,” Wang Le, a 28-year-old Beijinger, told AFP. “With electronic red envelopes, you’re not limited by your identity(身份) or the time of year. It’s a new, fresh way of playing the game.”

       The idea was introduced in 2014 by WeChat, a mobile messaging system with over 400 million users and run by Tencent, China’s largest Internet service system. It was successful at once.

       This year, Alipay Wallet(阿里支付宝), the payment system run by Alibaba, is ready to take on the competition. It is allowing its 190 million users to send digital gifts, especially on the Twitter-like Sina Weibo.

       For the past few weeks, a digital battle has been terrible, with Tencent banning(禁止) Alipay from sending red envelopes on WeChat, saying they were at a risk. Recently, WeChat also blocked(封锁) Alibaba’s music app Xiami.

       To attract the public’s attention, the two companies have launched lotteries through which they award red envelopes to users in an online game.

       It’s easy to send and receive hong bao or take part in the lotteries: you simply need to register(登记) your bank details.

       According to market research group iResearch, Alipay controls 82.6 percent of the Chinese mobile phone payment market, compared to 10 percent for Tencent’s Tenpay.
