Although he is one of China's most famous scientists, Yuan Longping considers himself a farmer, for he works the land to do his research. Indeed, his sunburnt face and arms and his slim, strong body are just like those of millions of Chinese farmers, for whom he has struggled for the past five decades. Yuan Longping grows super hybrid rice. In 1973, he became the first agricultural pioneer in the world to grow the super hybrid rice that has a high output. This special strain of rice makes it possible to produce 20% more of the crop in the same fields. Now more than 60% of the rice is from this hybrid strain.
Born in 1930, Yuan Longping graduated from Southwest Agricultural College in 1953. Since then, finding ways to produce more rice has been his life goal. As a young man, he saw the great need for increasing the rice output. At that time, hunger was a problem in many parts of China. Yuan Longping looked for a way to increase rice output without expanding the area of the fields. In 1950, Chinese farmers could produce about 56 million tons of rice, but now nearly 200 million tons per year. Nearly 22% of the world's people are fed from just 7% of the farmland in the world, which is due to the super hybrid rice grown by Yuan Longping.
23. What is Yuan Longping
A. He is an artist. B. He is a scientist. C. He is a doctor. D. He is a teacher.
24. What does the underlined words“five decades”mean in paragraph one
A. fifty million years. B. fifty thousand years. C. fifty hundred years. D. fifty years.
25. In 1973, what happened to Yuan Longping
A. He was born. B. He grew the super hybrid rice as the first agricultural pioneer.
C. He graduated from the college. D. He produced 56 million tons of rice.
26. How many tons of rice can Chinese farmers produce per year now
A. nearly 50 million tons. B. nearly 100 million tons. C. nearly 200 million tons. D. nearly 250 million tons.

A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It's great first for what it contains：the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sports to business，from fashion to science, and the range of comment and special feature(特写) as well，from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art theatre and music.
A newspaper is even greater for the way one reads it：never completely, never straight through，but always by jumping from here to there, in and out, glancing at one piece，reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the text.
A good modern newspaper offers a variety(多样性) to attract many different readers, but far more than the reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality(时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it also mean that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient(短暂的) value.
For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper：what each person does is to put together, out of the pages of that day's paper, his own selection and order, his own newspaper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need and without wasting time，demands skill and self-awareness as you change and apply the techniques of reading.
27．A modern newspaper is great for all the following EXCEPT its________.
A．wide variety B．similar style C．speed in reporting news D．popularity
28．According to the passage, the reason why no two people really read the same newspaper is that ________.
A．people look through the news they are interested in B．different people prefer different newspapers
C．people are rarely interested in the same kind of news D．people have different views about what a good newspaper is
29．It can be concluded from the passage that newspaper readers________.
A．apply reading techniques skillfully B．jump from one newspaper to another
C．appreciate the variety of a newspaper D．usually read a newspaper selectively
30．Which can be a suitable title for the passage
A．How to read newspaper B．Where to find a good newspaper
C．What is a good newspaper D．Newspaper.

After a minute of this, I closed the door. An American friend sat on the sofa, open-mouthed “Wait—did you just close the door ”
In London, you don’t tip for 39 . A man on a motorbike arrives and hands over an oil-soaked bag, or a box. You give him the 40 amount of money it costs or wait and look at your shoes while he 41 change. Then you close the door. Sometimes all this is 42 without even the removal of his motorcycle helmet. The dream is that the whole 43 exchange passes wordlessly.

Now when I’m in London I find myself tipping all kinds of people, most of whom express a sort of genuine 48 , even if the tip is tiny. What they never, ever do, 49 is tell me to have a nice day. “Have a good one”—said slowly with a slightly sad air, as if avoiding the far greater 50 of an evil “one”—is the most you tend to hear.
But I’m not going to complain about Britain’s 51 of a service culture. I don’t think any nation should 52 service to the status of culture. At best, it’s performed politely and properly by both parties, but no one should be asked to 53 that the intimate（亲密的）satisfaction of her existence is serving you, the “guest”, with a shrimp sandwich wrapped in plastic. We are heavily affected by enough false beliefs in this life without 54 them the one that the girl with the name tag is 55 in love with us.
