Take the cable car to the top of Table Mountain for breathtaking views across the whole city. Hang out and relax at the Victoria and Alfred waterside area where you can visit the Museum of Contemporary African Art, try local dishes at the food market, or join a walking tour to explore the area's history dating back to the 17th century.

From a young age, Barbara Binns's passions were reading and doing research. With her latest book, Unlawful Orders, a biography, she captures American history.
Unlawful Orders tells the story of James Williams (1919- 2016), a doctor who served with the Tuskegee Airmen, the first Black military pilots, during World War II. While at the Freeman Airfield base in Iowa, he stood up to racial unfair practices through peaceful protest, which pushed the government to make some changes in the US army.
Binns lives in Chicago, Illinois, where she grew up and where most of her stories took place. In 2008, she wrote several books for young readers. She found her current book's subject while researching James's mother, Clara Williams, for another project. James had also lived in Chicago,
in a neighborhood not far from where Binns grew up, but she hadn't heard about him.“I found myself wondering if I ever walked past him on the street and didn't realize I was in the presence of greatness," Binns told The Week Junior. She said she would have loved to have him as a role model during her childhood.
That's one reason why she wrote Unlawful Orders, she said- -for children who need a hero. someone who looks ordinary but did extraordinary things through quiet but persistent actions.
24. What can be known about James Williams
A. He once served as an American pilot.
B. He fought for equal rights for the black people.
C. He lived in the same neighborhood with Binns.
D. He got the support from American government.
25. Which of the following words can best replace the underlined words in Paragraph 2
A. Put aside. B. Settled for. C. Objected to. D. Referred to.
26. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. How Binns chose the subject for Unlawful Orders.
B. How Binos got to know James Williams.
C. Why Binns gave up researching Clara Williams.
D. Why Binns chose Chicago to be the setting for her books.

C. To inspire the children. D. To record American history.
C
A new analysis by researchers at MIT has found that inactive yeast (非活性酵母) can help remove lead pollution from drinking water supplies. The study shows that this approach works well, even for part-per-billion levels of pollution. The team has calculated that waste yeast abandoned by a single brewery (啤酒厂) in Boston would be enough to teat the city's entire water supply. The system would not only purify the water but also change what would otherwise
be some waste needing to be got rid of.
Lead and other heavy metals in water are a serious global problem that continues to grow.In the U.S. alone, more than 12,000 miles of waterways are suffering the effect of wastewater rich in heavy metals. What's worse, heavy metals don't break down, but continuously exist and accumulate. They are either impossible or very expensive to completely remove by conventional methods. Lead is highly poisonous, even at tiny concentrations, especially affecting children as they grow.“We don't just need to minimize the existence of lead; we need to remove it from drinking water," says one of the researchers called Stathatou.
The solution found by the MIT team is not a new one. A process called biosorption, in which
inactive biological material is used to remove heavy metals from water, has been known for a few decades. But the process has been studied and characterized only at much higher concentrations, at the levels of more than one part per million.“Our study demonstrates that the process can indeed work efficiently at the much lower concentrations of typical real-world water supplies," another researcher named Athanasiou says.
Designing a practical system for processing the water and getting back the yeast, which could then be separated from the lead for reuse, is the next stage of the team's research, They are also exploring ways of recovering both the yeast and the lead, “We need to conduct further
experiments, but there is the option to get both back. And it will be a blessing for the world." Stathatou says.
28. What's the feature of the new approach for removing lead pollution from drinking water
A. It is costly but worthwhile, B. It is economical and efficient
C. It has higher technical requirements. D. It has been questioned by many experts.
29. What is the purpose of Paragraph 2
A. To state the necessity of removing heavy metals.
B. To arouse people's awareness of self-protection.
C. To stress on the difficulty of removing heavy metals. .
D. To introduce the feature of heavy metals.
30. What can we know about the process of biosorption from the text
A. It can determine the stability of water supply systems.
B. It tests the inactive substances in water supplies.
C. It can measure the make-up of heavy metals in water supplies.
D. It focuses on removing heavy metals at higher concentrations from water.
31. What does Stathatou think of their future research
A. Amusing. B. Worrying. C. Beneficial. D. Adventurous.
D
Birds that migrate long distances tend to be more likely than others to break up with their partners, according to an analysis of 232 species conducted by Sun Yat-sen University.
About 90 per cent of bird species are socially monogamous (一夫一妻制的), which means once they form pairs, they will stay together for life. However, some do end up getting“divorced"
and move onto new partners.
To identify reasons that lead to bird break ups, Liu Yang at Sun Y at-sen University in China and his colleagues studied 232 species in one of the world's largest bird databases, Birds of the World, They found that species that migrate particularly long distances to obtain food typically have higher rates of breaking up.
Great blue herons, for example, migrate more than 3000 kilometres and have a divorce rate of 100 per cent. This may be because travelling further makes it harder for a pair to return home at the same time, says Liu Yang. "Ifyou're tbe one who gets back first, it's risky waiting for your partner because you don't know if it'll show up - it may have died or been blown off course,"Liu adds. Finding a new partner may seem a safer bet even if it requires energy to please a new mate, he says.
Liu and his team members acknowledge that it makes sense for birds with long migrations
to have higher divorce rates, but there are exceptions.
Black-tailed godwits, for example, migrate more than 1000 kilometres from Iceland to the UK or southwest Europe each year but have relatively low divorce rates. This seems to be due to a super ability to keep pace with their partners. Although members of a pair will follow separate migration paths and typically end up more than 900 kilometres away from each other,they are somehow able to return to Iceland at almost the same time, which reduces the risk of break-ups. "But most birds are not able to do that - it's pretty amazing." Liu concludes.
32. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2
A. Most bird species have more than one partner for life.
B. Few bird species are devoted to their partners.
C. Most bird species have higher rates of breaking up.
D. Most bird species tend to have only one partner.
33. Why do great blue herons have a divorce rate of 100 per cent
A. Because the bird pairs choose different migration routes.
B. Because they get tired of their partners.
C. Because they are impatient with waiting.
D. Because it is safer for them to move onto a new partner.
34. What can we learn about black-tailed godwits in the last paragraph
A. They have a higher divorce rate than great blue herons.
B. The nearly same returning time reduces the risk of their divorce.
C. It is typical of them to migrate at the same speed with their partners.
D. They set a good example of romance for other birds.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text .
A. Migration Linked to Bird Divorce B. Reasons for Bird Migration
C. Bird Migration with Long Distances D. Birds—with High Rates of Divorce.

Jenna demonstrated a front kick and Marti copied it. Her kick was as high as Jenna's shoulder. “Great job, Marti!" said Ms Baroni, who had walked up behind them. “Let me show you something" she said.

Master Lee,not Ms Baroni, will give you point." said Jenna.“You don't think I'm good enough to test yet "Marti looked disappointed. Jenna felt her face get hot.
