arrived at the hospital to find dad was very weak, but his smile was as sure as ever. it was another attack of pneumonia(肺炎). my husband and i stayed with him for the weekend but had to return to our jobs on monday. local relatives would help dad get home from the hospital and look after him. but i longed to be able to let him know that we cared too, even when we werent with him.then i remember a family tradition when our children were small. when leaving their grandparents home after a visit, each child would write a note to their grandparents. they hid notes in the cereal(麦片), under a hairbrush, next to the phone or even in the microwave oven. for days, their grandparents would smile as they discovered these signs of our love.so as i tidied dads kitchen and made up a bed for him downstairs in the living room, i wrote some notes. some were practical, “dad, i put the food in the fridge so it wouldnt spoil.” some expressed my love, “dad i hope you will sleep well in your new bed.” most notes were downstairs where he would stay for several weeks until he recovered strength, but one note i hid upstairs under his pillow, “dad, if you have found this one, you must be feeling better. we are so glad. ”just like his medicine strengthened him physically, these “emotional vitamins” would improve his spiritual health. several weeks later, in one of our regular phone calls, i asked dad how he was doing. he said, “pretty good. i just found your note under my pillow upstairs!”24. we can infer from the text that the authors father_.a. got home from hospital alone b. lived with his relativesc. asked her to return to work d. had suffered from the same illness before25. the children hid notes in their grandparents home in order to _.a. give their grandparents a pleasant surprise b. play tricks on their grandparentsc. show their gifts to their grandparents d. follow a family tradition26. following the family tradition, the author_.a. often called her father b. wrote some notes to her fatherc. longed to visit her father d. worried about her father27. having heard what her father said, the author would feel_.a. surprised b. lucky c. pleased d. sad chow many things can you see in the night sky? a lot! on a clear night you might see the moon, some planets, and thousands of sparkling stars.you can see even more with a telescope. you might see stars where before you only saw dark space. you might see that many stars look larger than others. you might see that some stars that look white are really red or blue. with bigger and bigger telescopes you can see more and more objects in the sky. and you can see those objects in more and more detail.but scientists believe there are some things in the sky that we will never see. we wont see them with the biggest telescope in the world, on the clearest night of the year.thats because theyre invisible. theyre the mysterious dead stars called black holes.you might find it hard to imagine that stars die. after all, our sun is a star. year after year we see it up in the sky, burning brightly, giving us heat and light. the sun certainly doesnt seem to be getting old or weak. but stars do burn out and die after billions of years.as a stars gases burn, they give off light and heat. but when the gas runs out, the star stops burning and begins to die.as the star cools, the outer layers of the star pull in toward the center. the star squashes into a smaller and smaller ball. if the star was very small, the star ends up as a cold, dark ball called a black dwarf. if the star was very big, it keeps squashing inward until its packed together tighter than anything in the universe.imagine if the earth were crushed until it was the size of a tiny marble. thats how tightly this dead star, a black hole, is packed. what pulls the star in toward its center with such power? its the same force that pulls you down when you jump the force called gravity. a black hole is so tightly packed that its gravity sucks in everything even light. the light from a black hole can never come back to your eyes. thats why you see nothing but blackness.so the next time you stare up at the night sky, remember: theres more in the sky than meets the eye! scattered in the silent darkness are black holes the great mystery of space.28. according to the article, what causes a star to die?a. as it gets hotter and hotter, it explodes.b. as its gases run out, it cools down.c. it can only live for about a million years.d. it collides with other stars.29. which of the following statements is not a fact?a. black holes are dead stars. b. there is nothing as mysterious as a black hole.c. black holes are invisible. d. black holes have gravity. 30.which of the following is not a feature of a black dwarf?a. it is smaller in size than a common star.b. it is dark.c. it is usually bigger than a white dwarf. d. it is cold.31. why cant you see light when you look at a black hole?a. for most black holes are so far away.b. as the stars gases burn, it stops giving off heat and light.c. as a star cools, its outer layers pull in toward its center.d. the gravity of a black hole is so strong that it sucks the light inward.drescue workers at the san jose gold and copper mine in northern chile had reason to sing this weeka small hole drilled into the earth became a passage（通道） to freedom for thirty-three trapped
