No matter how bad the situation is, it will always be there to help! But it hasnt always been this way. For example, in the United States, if not for the passion（热情）of a woman named Clara Barton, the American Red Cross may have never been formed! When Clara was young, she was very shy. One day when she was 11 years old, her elder brother, David, was badly injured. He was ill for two years. Clara cared for him the whole time. Through this experience she learned something very valuable about herself. She found out that she came alive when she cared for others. Soon. Clara began taking care of injured animals. Neighbours began bringing their pets to her. And, almost always, she made them better. When she was older, she became a nurse in the American Civil War and she helped save hundreds of soldiers. After the Civil War, Clara traveled to Europe to rest. But that did not last long. Soon she began caring for soldiers in battle once again! But this time, she learned about an organization called The Red Cross which worked alongside her on the battlefield. Its mission(使命）was to help those who need it most. She decided that the Red Cross was badly needed in America. Over several years, she asked 4 different Presidents to bring the Red Cross to America. They all said no. But then, thanks to her persistence, one of the Presidents changed his mind! And the American Red Cross was born.24. What did Clara learn from the experience of caring for her sick brother?A. She found her value. B. She was no longer shy.C. It was her dream to be a nurse. D. It was difficult to care for others.25.Clara first learned about the Red Cross when_.A. she took a rest in Europe B. she was caring for her brother.C. she helped wounded soldiers in Europe D. she was a nurse in the American Civil War26.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “persistence” in the last paragraph?A. motivation B. achievement. C. contribution D. determination27.What is the text mainly about?A. The early history of the American Red Cross.B. How Clara brought the Red Cross to America. C. What contributions Clara made to the Red CrossD. Clara-a woman who liked to care for others.C Chris Mazdzer won a silver medal in a mens luge(无舵雪橇）singles event at the PyeongChang Winter Olympics. Over the years, German and Austrian teams have dominated（在.处于优势）the sport. When those teams lost, other European nations won. In the luge, petitors lie flat, feet first, on a small sled（雪橇）.They can travel around an icy track at speeds up to 140 kilometers an hour. The riders control the sleds speed by changing the position of their feet or by moving their shoulders. So why did Team USA Luge win a medal at the PyeongChang Olympics? Most credit must go to Chris Mazdzer himself. The American said his win was a product of 16 years of preparation and tough training. His teammate called him“an animal”whose years of hard work clearly paid off in the end. But another reason for Mazdzers success could have been the 3-D printing technology, which his team used to make its equipment. The USA Luge team worked with an American pany called Stratasys on the designing and producing process for the sleds. First, the pany made a scan of the body of every member of the luge team. Then, 3-D printing technology was used to create tools for making molds（模子）in the shape of Olympians on top of a sled. The process of designing and producing sled parts is highly plex and can take several weeks. Officials from USA Luge say 3-D printing can greatly simplify the process, speeding up the production of parts to within hours. Jon Owen, the head of technical programs for USA Luge, said,“The use of 3-D printing helped the team continually adjust designs, so the riders could run on the track much faster than traditional processes.”He added,“The technology also provides a way to perfectly fit each rider to the sled, while cutting production time and costs.”28. In the luge, what do petitors have to do?A. Move down a hill at high speeds. B. Sit straight at times on a small sled.C. Travel at least 140 kilometers per hour. D. Control the speed using their feet or shoulders.29. Why did his teammate call Chris Mazder“an animal”?A. Because he was extremely strong. B. Because he was as lovely as an animal. C. Because he trained extremely hard. D. Because he controlled the sled very well.30. Thanks to 3 -D printing technology, Stratasys could _.A. tailor equipment for riders. B. create different styles of sleds.C. produce a sled within hours. D. simplify the equipment greatly.31. What can we learn from Jon Owens words?A. 3 -D printing will be widely used to reduce costs.B.3 -D printing can play a big role in Olympic events.C. The American team won mainly due to3 -D printing.D. 3-D printing made the American team more petitive. D The Bridegrooms Oak, a 500-year-old tree just outside of Eutin, in Germany, has its own postal address and receives around 40 letters every day. Theyre sent by love seekers from around the world, in the hope that someone will read them and write back. With so many dating apps and services available nowadays, sending letters to a tree hardly sounds like the best way to find love. However, theres something charming about sending a letter and allowing fate（命运）to work its magic, so the Bridegrooms Oak remain popular even now.

After about one year, Minnas father found out their continued relationship,but instead of punishing them, he gave them permission to marry. The two lovers got married on June2, 1891, under the oak tree that helped keep their romance（罗曼史）alive. The couples story spread around Eutin, and soon, people unable to find love started writing romantic letters and leaving them in the trees knothole. By 1927, it was already known as Bridegrooms Oak and was so popular that it had its own address and postal code, allowing people from all over Germany and even abroad to send in their letters. Love seekers visiting the Bridegrooms Oak need respect only one simple rule. They can check all the letters in its knothole, and take with them the one they wish to reply to, but they have to put the others back for other people to find.
