One of these boys knew a girl he liked so much that he wanted to give her a present.One day, he was walking with his friend in the main palace hall, and he saw a big vase filled with the loveliest flowers you could imagine. He decided to take one to give to the girl, thinking that no one would see him do so. He did the same thing the next day, and the next, and the next until one day, the King noticed how few flowers were left in the vase. He was so angry that he called everyone in the palace to him.When they were all before the King, the boy thought he should say it had been him who took the flowers. However, his friend told him to be quiet, because the King would be terribly angry with him. The boy was filled with fear, but when the King came near he decided to confess.As soon as the boy said that he had done it, the King went red with anger, but on hearing what the boy had done with the flowers, a smile appeared on the Kings face, and he said,“I couldnt have thought of a better use for my flowers.”And, from that day, the boy and the King became great friends. They went to the vase and took two of those wonderful flowers, one for the girl, and the other for the Queen.24. What did the boy do for the king in the palace?A. A painter B. A gardener C. A teacher D. A servant25. How did the boy show his love for the girl?A. By giving her flowers. B. By giving her a vase.C. By asking her out. D. By writing her letters. 26. The underlined word in paragraph 3 can be replaced by.A. tell the truthB. run away C. make an excuseD. beg for mercy27. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. The boy was caught stealing right by the King.B. The King was inspired by the boy.C. The King became very angry at the empty vase.D. The boy was encouraged by his friend to steal.CHave you ever found yourself in this situation（情形）: You hear a song you used to sing when you were a child a bit of nostalgia(怀旧) or “blast（冲击波） from the past,” as we say. But it is not a distant（遥远的） childhood memory（童年回忆）. The words（歌词） e back to you as clearly as when you sang them all those years ago. Researchers at the University of Edinburgh studied the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language. They found that remembering words in a song was the best way to remember even one of the most difficult languages.Here is what they did. Researchers took 60 adults（成年人） and randomly（随机地） divided（划分） them into three groups of 20. Then they gave the groups three different types of “listen-and-repeat（听及重复）” learning conditions. Researchers had one group simply speak the words. They had the second group speak the words to a rhythm（伴着节奏）. And they asked the third group to sing the words.All three groups studied words from the Hungarian（匈牙利的） language for 15 minutes. Then they took part in a series of（一系列的） language tests（测试） to see what they remembered.Why Hungarian, you ask? Researchers said they chose Hungarian because not many people know the language. It does not share any roots（根系） with Germanic（德国的） or Romance（罗马的） languages, such as Italian or Spanish. After the tests were over, the singers came out（出现） on top. The people who learned these new Hungarian words by singing them showed a higher overall（全面的） performance（表现）. They did the best in most of the tests. They also performed two times better than those who simply（仅仅） learned the words by speaking them.Dr. Katie Overy says singing could lead to new ways to learn a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things when they are contained（包含） in a catchy（易记的） 3, or memorable（值得纪念的） 4, tune（曲调） 5.Dr. Ludke said the findings could help those who struggle（挣扎） to learn foreign languages. On the University of Edinburghs website Dr. Ludke writes, “This study provides the first experimental（实验的） evidence that a listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning, and opens the door for future research in this area（领域）.”28.The “song” mentioned in the first paragraph is intended to_.A. recall（回忆） the past B. attract the readersC. introduce（引进） the topic D. pare the childhood with the present29. According to the passage which language doesnt share the same root with Germanic or Romance languages?A. Hungarian. B. Spanish. C. Italian. D. English.30.Based on the last two paragraphs, we can conclude（总结） that _.A. singing is not the best way to learn a language.B. the brain probably works best when the foreign language learners sing the words.C. a listen-repeat method is very plex（复杂的） for any language learner.D. Dr. Katie Overy and Dr. Ludke disagree（不同意） with each other.31.In which situation can the finding（发现） of the research be applied（应用）?A. A mother is going to teach her baby how to speak.B. A child is going to have his first music lesson.C. A student is going to learn a new English song.D. An American is going to learn some Chinese.DThe average（平均） American child spends three to five hours a day watching TV. In 1961, the average child began to watch television at age three; however, today it is nine months. Yet, most parents think that television has a bad influence（影响） on their children. For example, in the early 1970s, my parents believed that my bad eyesight（视力） was the result of sitting too close to the screen（屏幕）, and they therefore made my stay at least six feet（英尺） from it. Today, most people have no such worry, but many new ridiculous （荒谬的）sayings have appeared:* TV makes kids stupid（愚蠢的）. Many children watch more educational（教育性的） programs（节目） when they are pre-schoolers（学龄前儿童）. When they grow up, they can read more books and have much better ideas to solve difficult problems than other children.* TV makes kids violent（暴力的）. The real story is not so simple. Hundreds of studies show that watching violence on TV makes children more aggressive （好斗的）. But a study of over 5000 children also finds that some positive programs make children kinder. The problem is that kids are increasingly（越来越） watching shows with violence instead of those suitable（合适的） for their age. * Sitting around watching TV makes kids overweight（超重）. An experiment finds that when children watch less television, they do lose extra（额外的） weight; however, reducing their television time does not make them more active. The real problem lies in（在于） snacking, a widespread（广泛传播的） habit for kids, and junk food（垃圾食品） advertisements. * TV helps kids get to sleep. The opposite（相反的） is true. The more television children watch, the more likely they are to have irregular（不规律的） sleep and nap （小睡）patterns. Allowing kids to watch television is part of the problem, not the solution. 32 . WhichoneistheadvantageofeducationalTVprograms?A.Theywillmakechildrensolvedifficultproblemsbetterthanothers.B.Theywillimprovechildrensability（能力）togetalongwithothers.C.Theyarelikelytomakechildrenmoreaggressive.D.Theywillmakesureofchildrenssuccessinthefuture.33.
