Apart from speeches, in my point of view, we can use our eyes to express ourselves. And through one’s eyes, we can read sorrow, happiness, encouragement, and many other emotions. Eyes are always the most direct organs to reveal our thoughts.
Until now I still remember an experience, which happened when I took part in a singing contest at the age of nine. It was the power of my mother’s eyes that encouraged me to go for it. I had shown great interest in singing before that, but I was too shy to sing in public. So one day my mother took me to sign up for the singing contest. With my mother’s company and encouragement, I was determined to meet that challenge. Standing on the stage, I suddenly found I had become the focus of all attention. I got so nervous that I couldn’t even keep my eyes open. When it was my turn to be introduced to the audience and sing, I became even more nervous. I felt my legs were shaking and my memory seemed to have left me—I couldn’t remember anything. Searching for help, I met my mother’s eyes which were sparkling with encouragement and strong power. It seemed that they were speaking to me, “Take it easy. You can do it! I’ll always be with you!” I read the message in her eyes and at that moment I got my confidence back and began to sing my song. When I came down from the stage, she came up to me, saying, “Great! I’m proud of you!” and gave me a big hug. At that moment, I saw her eyes filled with tears of joy. Sometimes, you see, just a look of encouragement from a loved one can make a shy person brave.
24. What’s the author’s purpose of telling us about her unforgettable experience
A. To prove that we can express ourselves through our eyes.
B. To explain that our eyes are an important part of our body.
C. To share her unforgettable experience with us.
D. To tell us how she became brave.
25. According to the passage we know that ______.
A. the author wasn’t interested in the singing contest at all
B. the author was nervous because she couldn’t see her mother
C. the author didn’t do well in the singing contest
D. the author got confidence from her mother’s eyes
26. What does the underlined word “reveal” in the first paragraph mean
A. Give away. B. Give up. C. Give in. D. Give out.
27. What’s the best title for the passage
A. How to Express Ourselves B. Encouraging Eyes
C. A Singing Contest D. Confidence and Success
C
When a leafy plant is under attack, it doesn’t sit quietly. Back in 1983, two scientists, Jack Schultz and lan Baldwin, reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm. What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds, VOCs for short.
Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked. It’s a plant’s way of crying out. But is anyone listening Apparently. Because we can watch the neighbors react.
Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away. But others do double duty. They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers. Once they arrive, the tables are turned. The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.
In study after study, it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors. The damage is usually more serious on the first plant, but the neighbors, relatively speaking, stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.
Does this mean that plants talk to each other Scientists don’t know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to “overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged, but it wasn’t a true, intentional back and forth.
Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate (亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There’s a whole lot going on.
28. What does a plant do when it is under attack
A. It makes noises. B. It gets help from other plants. C. It stands quietly. D. It sends out certain chemicals.
29. What does the author mean by “the tables are turned” in Paragraph 3
A. The attackers get attacked. B. The insects gather under the table.
C. The plants get ready to fight back. D. The perfumes attract natural enemies.
30. Scientists find from their studies that plants can ______.
A. predict natural disasters B. protect themselves against insects
C. talk to one another intentionally D. help their neighbors when necessary
31. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. The world is changing faster than ever. B. People have stronger senses than before.
C. The world is more complex than it seems. D. People in Darwin’s time were more imaginative.
D
Have you ever thought of getting in touch with your inner child from time to time Obviously some people are willing to pay big money for the chance to do so in a proper environment. A Brooklyn-based adult preschool is charging customers between $333 and $999 for the chance to act like a kid again.
At Preschool Mastermind in New York adults get to participate in show-and-tell, arts-and-crafts such as finger paint, games like musical chairs and even take maps. The month-long course also has class picture day where the adults are expected to have a field trip and a parent day.
30-year-old Michelle Joni Lapidos, the brain behind the adult preschool, studied childhood education and has always wanted to be a preschool teacher. She’s always on the lookout for new ways to get people in touch with the freedom of childhood. A friend encouraged her to start the mastermind course instead.
According to Candice, her blogger friend, Preschool Mastermind gives adults a chance to relearn and master the things that they failed to understand as children. “I realized all the significance of what we had learned in preschool,” said founder Michelle Joni. “People come here and get in touch with their inner child. It’s magical. We are bringing ourselves back to another place, another time with ourselves when we are more believing in ourselves, more confident and ready to take on the world.”
“One person’s here because they want to learn not to be so serious,” Michelle said. “Another’s here to learn to be more confident.” She explained that most of the classes were planned. However, Joni added that while the planned activities were fun, it was often the spontaneous (自发的) moments that attracted students. “It’s the things you don’t plan for, the sharing between friends and learning from each other.”
32. What is the purpose of Preschool Mastermind
A. To give adults a chance to return to childhood. B. To help parents understand their children better.
C. To provide practical training courses for teachers. D. To introduce some ways of playing with children.
33. What is mainly discussed about Preschool Mastermind in Paragraph 2
A. Its customers. B. Its activities. C. Its environment. D. Its schedule.
34. According to Candice, people come to this program to ______.
A. enjoy freedom of thinking B. realize their childhood dreams
C. discover their inner abilities D. figure out childhood puzzles
35. What do we know about Michelle Joni
A. She used to be a preschool teacher. B. She likes to make plans in advance.
C. She founded Preschool Mastermind. D. She gained confidence by sharing.

Ways to Brighten a Cloudy Day
When I was a small child, I’d curl (蜷缩) up on my parents’ bed after the sunshine had warmed it. It was a pleasant place of peace and safety that I struggled to find in later years.
36 As I learn to enjoy those memories of a regular life, I found more smiles and sunshine than I’d ever thought possible. Try one of the followings for the best result!
Get outside, move and breathe.
Fresh air and sunshine can have a magical effect on your feelings. Sometimes when you are feeling down, all that you need to do is simply go outside and breathe. 37 So if you start to feel down, go outside, let the sun hit your face, go for a hike or whatever.
Do something nice for a complete stranger.
Buy a coffee, pay a bill, give a smile and a “thank you” when none is required. You may even reach out and help strangers who live far away from you. 38 It also feels very, very good.
Laugh from your stomach.
39 And the good feeling that you get when you laugh remains with you even after the laughter disappears. A moment spent in full enjoyment of laughing is a great way to release stress and refuel your smile.
Try something not included in your normal life.
Most of us eat from a very short list of food. Eating something entirely different will do more than expand (增强) your sense of taste. 40
We need to live each moment wholeheartedly, with all our senses. Only in this way will we find what a wonderful world it actually is!
A. It will help keep your sense of adventure alive!
B. Giving will open you up to a world of kindness.
C. Movement and exercise is also a great way to feel better.
D. You know the kind of laugh that shakes your whole body
E. Being happy is about taking the time to work towards your goal.
F. Choose seasonal, healthy foods like fresh fruit instead of high-fat ones.
G. Each day includes moments that can be deeply enjoyed or carelessly ignored.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
A few years ago I worked in an international company that sold computer devices. I had to travel a lot all over the country as a part of my work. I remember that I was at a stage of my life where I only cared about how to make more money.
On one of my trips, I came out of the airport to take a bus to downtown, as usual. It was the same routine: get into the city, take the bus to the hotel, visit the customer, work late, take the bus back to the airport and fly back... That day, for some reasons, I decided to take the stairs down to a different exit, where I came across a beautiful garden I had never seen before. I waited there, enjoying the scenery. Finally the bus came.
Usually I always took the scat behind the driver. That day I sat down somewhere in the middle. A boy was seated next to me, carrying a lot of suitcases. Suddenly, he turned to me and gave me one of the most sincere smiles I had ever seen from a stranger. Warmly, he said, “Hi, the perfect day in the perfect place, huh ”
I remember thinking to myself—this must be one of those typical people who is young and naive and just thinks everything is beautiful and easy. Why was he annoying me when I just wanted to enjoy the bus ride But out of politeness, I replied, “Perfect! Did your parents pay for you to have some vacations on the beach ” “No. I’m not here for vacation, and I don’t have parents,” he shook his head. “I’m here because I want to achieve my biggest dream. I’m on the way to the army school where my grandfather studied a long time ago.”
