Thousands of years ago, people didn't know that the Earth moved. They thought the Sun really did move across the sky. The Greek god Helios was said to drive the Sun across the sky with his chariot (战车).But now, the way people think has changed. Nowadays, it is the Sun that drives a“chariot" around the sky.
What do I mean by this Well, quite simply, there is now a plane (or “chariot") that is powered by the Sun. It has special parts on its wings. These parts absorb (吸收) power from the Sun. They absorb so much power that the plane can still fly even at night. In Greek mythology (神话)，Helios had to take a break at night. It seems that we,re finally even more powerful than the gods themselves. This plane is called Solar Impulse. It will fly across the US in May. This is very important for the future of the world.
Why is solar energy important Well, other kinds of energy are known to cause problems.
If you live in China, you've probably noticed the pollution. This is caused by burning coal and gas to make energy. The heat and chemicals created by burning these things give us power. But if we use power from the Sun, we don't have to burn anything and there will not be any pollution.
Solar energy is not entirely ready yet. It needs to be improved. But the best thing about it is that, unlike coal and gas, it doesn't run out. The Solar Impulse could pretty much keep flying forever. Of course, the Sun's light will eventually run out too one day, but not for another five billion years. That's a pretty long flight.
( )16. Which description of the plane Solar Impulse is TRUE
It cannot fly at night.
It is powered by chemicals.
It is driven by solar energy.
It was made in the US.
( )17. What's the main idea of Paragraph 4
Using solar energy causes pollution.
Solar energy is a better source of energy.
Creating energy by burning things causes pollution.
Burning things will not be allowed in China.
( )18. Where may we probably read this passage
In a science magazine. B. In a history textbook.
C. In a Greek myth. D. In a storybook.
( )19. What's the passage mainly about
The story of the Greek god Helios.
How China makes use of energy.
The uses and advantages of solar energy.
The disadvantages of burning coal and gas.
( )20. What does the writer mean by saying “That's a pretty long flight" in the last
paragraph
It takes a lot of time to get Solar Impulse going.
Solar Impulse moves very slowly.
Solar Impulse will be in use for a long time.
Solar Impulse has a long way to go to take the place of the Sun.
In my freshman year, I asked myself,“Why am I in school " I thought I was forced to be there, but I decided just to get along with it until I could find it meaningful.
One day it finally hit me. We were studying Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet in our writing class. Each of us was asked to play a part, and I jokingly volunteered to play the nurse. They all laughed, thinking that I, a boy, couldn't play it, but I decided I was going to be the best nurse in the writing class. On the day of the performance, I made it a success, and then I knew what school meant to me. School was then a place where I could explore unknown areas in my mind. Perhaps I hadn't realized that before because I had never been brave enough to discover it.
To my new-found hunger for learning, I decided that I wouldn't be shy any more. In oral communication class, I chose unpopular speech topics and made them interesting. In British literature class, I chose to write a song for a creative project. Through these activities, I made classes interesting not only for me, but also for my classmates and teachers.
In short, I have discovered that learning is not something teenagers are forced to experience. Instead, learning is a way how teenagers grow. What I want to tell my classmates is that I am a brave and creative actor, musician and writer, whose name each of my teachers knows by the end of their first class, and will be reinforced (加强) each day through my brave behaviour.
( )21. What's the matter with the writer in the beginning
He did badly in his study.
He couldn't get along well with others.
He wondered why he went to school.
His parents forced him to go to school.
( )22. What does the underlined word"it”in Paragraph 2 probably refer to
The idea that I played the nurse.
The idea that learning in school is disappointing.
The idea that we studied in the writing class.
The idea that learning in school is meaningful.
( )23. What helped the writer change his thought about school
A. The performance. B. The British literature class.
C. The class discussions. D. The speech topics.
( )24. In the end, the writer became in learning.
A. serious B. active C. unwilling
)25. What can we learn from the writer
We should explore learning bravely.
We need to play a part in the writing class.
We should make teachers know our names.
We can learn to be actors, musicians and writers.

27 At first, most of us were nervous to be so close to them, but
slowly we began to enjoy the special experience. A woman shouted aloud when a lion came up to our minibus and started to lick （舔）the window. Our driver laughed and said the lion was just offering his car-wash services. This calmed the woman down and she laughed with the rest of us.
At Amboseli National Park, we met five Maasai people. We were invited to their village to learn more about their traditional culture. 28 On our last day in
Amboseli, a group of Maasai people performed traditional dances and songs for us. They sang without any musical instruments. The Maasai dances were energetic with the men jumping high in the air. 29 The higher the men jump, the
stronger they are.
While eating, we noticed three Maasai people enter the restaurant.
It was a surprise for us when these strong Africans sat down and ordered some orange juice to drink! It was an amazing scene from my unforgettable trip!
