Passage B
Yesterday, I met a delightful woman at a work event. As we talked, she talked about her childhood in Manila, Philippines. She spoke about the way her culture values their elders, and she explained that children are educated from the time of birth to honor and respect people older than themselves.
It was refreshing to hear that, and I enjoyed listening and learning. Here is the memory she shared that I found so beautiful:
When she was growing up, her father had three jobs to take care of his family. She said her dad never complained, and though he worked very hard, he always had time for them. One day, her father was injured at his full-time job. For several months, he was mailed temporary (暂时的) disability checks while he recovered.
When her father was able to return to his full-time job, he took all those disability checks that were sent to him while he was recovering and handed them back to the company. He told them that he had good legs and arms, and did not need this money. He told them to give the money to people who could not work, to people who really needed it.
The woman telling the story was a little girl at that time. She had accompanied(陪伴) her father that very day when he went back to his company with all those unopened checks.
“My father is my hero,” she said. Lowering her voice, she said she would never forget what he did, and what an inspiration and influential mentor (良师益友) he was on how to live life. From my communication with her, it was very obvious that her father’s same sweet spirit had been passed down to this woman, and to her family.
Hearing this story was so refreshing to my soul. I hope it is the same to you too.
24.When the woman was talking about her childhood, the writer was probably ________.
A.sad and moved B.surprised and angry
C.annoyed and disappointed D.interested and joyful
25.The woman’s father took the temporary disability checks back to his company because ________.
A.he felt he was looked down upon
B.he wasn’t satisfied with the amount
C.he thought others needed them more than him
D.he felt sorry that he had hurt himself by accident
26.What did the writer find after talking with the woman
A.The woman didn’t know how hard life was.
B.The woman missed her father very much.
C.The woman’s father influenced her in a good way.
D.The woman didn’t think her father made the right decision.
27.By writing the story, the writer ________.
A.tries to tell us what we can learn from our parents
B.hopes we can get encouraged by good deeds
C.shows respect for real heroes in our lives
D.wants to ask us to value our family
Passage C
There are many interesting science experiments out there for young kids. You can surprise your friends and teachers with them. All you have to do is to put a little effort into it and you should have no problem coming up with an interesting science experiment. One such experiment is to show your friends and teachers that you can make mothballs (樟脑丸) dance!
If you want to do it, first, be sure that you have got all the necessary science kits for your science experiment.
What you need for this experiment is a glass filled half full with water. Add a little bit of vinegar to your glass of water, about 1/3 or 1/4 of a cup (60 ml), and one teaspoon (10 ml) of baking soda, and then carefully stir the mixture. Drop a few mothballs into the glass and have your audience watch. As long as the surfaces of the mothballs become fairly rough, they should begin to bounce up and down in the glass.
You can also do a similar experiment with raisins (葡萄干) and clear pop, such as Sprite. In this experiment, all you have to do is to fill a glass with Sprite and drop a few raisins into it. The raisins should begin to bounce up and down in the glass of Sprite. You can also replace the raisins with mothballs and you should get the same effect in the Sprite. This project works because the irregular surfaces of the mothballs and the raisins hold some CO2 bubbles (气泡) ,causing them to bounce up and down in a dancing motion.
28.The writer writes this passage to _______.
A.explain why some science experiments are easy
B.encourage people to spend more time on science
C.tell us how good he is at doing science experiments
D.teach kids how to do an easy and interesting science experiment
29.What is the most probable name of the experiment
A.Producing mothballs. B.Dancing mothballs. C.Changing mothballs.D.Swimming mothballs.
30.The underlined word "pop" in Paragraph 4 probably refers to a _________.
A.mothball B.kind of vinegar
C.drink with bubbles D.special kind of raisin
31.From the last paragraph we can know___________.
A.why Sprite has some CO2 bubbles B.what people usually use Sprite for
C.what scientists usually do with raisins D.why the mothballs bounce up and down
Passage D
Everyone who has eaten instant noodles knows that it’s very easy to cook them quickly. However, have you ever heard of the danger of eating them
When taking out the noodles from the packaging, you will notice that they are joined together nicely as a piece. Do you know that it needs some form of wax coating (蜡涂层) to make them joined together nicely Many people don’t really care much about it because this seems very normal. However, studies have shown that the wax coating is bad for our body.
It is advisable to have a break of 2-3 days before we start to eat another packet of instant noodles because our body needs about 3 days to clear that wax coating away. Do you know the danger of having too much wax coating in our stomach It will lead to cancer if it is in our body for so long.
Luckily, there is a way of reducing the danger before we eat instant noodles. First, wash the noodles with warm water, stir (搅拌) them and pour away the water containing the wax coating. Then repeat the first step and try to stir them again to wash away the wax coating on the noodles before cooking them. The shop vendors (供应商) will often wash away the dangerous wax coating.
It is very easy to cook instant noodles but we must pay attention to the wax coating if we eat too much. Imagine having too much of it in your stomach. Hope this article will help more people know about the hidden danger!

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。
When Dr Henderson was assigning(指定) project mates for his psychology class, I secretly hoped he would pair me with my best friend or at least a classmate I could have some fun with. Above all, I hoped he wouldn’t assign me to work with the fiercely competitive and extremely serious fellow who always wore dark clothes and apparently had a personality to match. As fate(命运) would have it, Dr Henderson very deliberately matched everyone in class and announced that I would be working with the one person in class I wanted to avoid.
I went up to my new teammate and introduced myself. He looked at me as though I weren’t there. I felt he treated me as though I would hold him back and probably make him fail to get an A in the course. He wasn’t mean or rude; he just gave me the impression that he could do whatever project we dreamed up better if he did it alone.
Needless to say, I didn’t look forward to an entire term of being brushed off, but I tried to make the best of it and didn’t say anything for fear that I would make things worse.
The project required each team to develop a hypothesis(假说), set up an experiment to test the hypothesis, do the statistical analysis and present the findings. Whatever grade the team received would be shared by both students.
When my teammate and I met to discuss our project, I was uneasy. Here was this challenging student who had a reputation for concentration and good grades—the exact opposite of me. I was completely at a disadvantage. I actually wanted to drop the class at one point, but stopped short because I didn’t want to give him the satisfaction of my chickening out and giving up halfway. I decided to stick to it no matter what.
After long discussions we somehow agreed to do a study on the mental well-being(健康) of teenagers. I wasn’t sure what it meant exactly, but at least we had a topic.

Dear Ben,
Learning you are addicted to playing computer games recently, I’m really concerned about you. And I’m writing to give you some advice.
Actually, playing computer games for too long has a bad effect on our study, and even does harm to our health. So you should get rid of it as soon as possible. I think you can try adopting a healthier lifestyle by doing things like reading. Take part in school activities, which can help you make friends and broaden your horizons.
Hope my advice will be helpful to you.
Yours,
Li Hua
One possible version:
We started to meet regularly to draw up our panion as I was in the project, I still had no sense of participating in the project. My teammate kept his brain occupied in developing the hypothesis, setting up an experiment to test it, and running the tests alone, leaving me just standing beside him as if I were a fool. “What a dull project it is!” I murmured to myself. However, something changed gradually, as I became aware what the tactile-kinesthetic perception of space meant. Thanks to the intense, fiercely competitive and singularly serious fellow, the whole procedure went smoothly, close to the final stage.
One day I got word that he was admitted to hospital for a serious disease. Without any delay, I packed up my school bag, took all the experiment statistics and rushed to the hospital. Seeing the pale fellow wearing pure white clothes instead of the annoying dark clothes, I felt a sense of sympathy and mercy welling up in my heart. With his guidance, I finished the statistical analysis and presented the findings. It turned out to be such an amazing and persuasive study that my teammate and I did win the best grade. And, we have been the most reliable cooperative partners ever since!
