I grew up on a farm in New York. We had to care for the animals day and night, seven days a week. There was work to do even during school vacations and on weekends.I was paid for my work. From the age of 10, I was paid $ 1 an hour. Because of this, I learned how to save and manage money at an early age. When I was only 11, I saved enough to buy a ten-speed bicycle. In high school, I took a job in a nearby town during the summer to save money for college.I also learned the satisfaction of work well done. Looking after the young animals was my responsibility. Most farmers calves (小牛）often got sick. I was proud that mine were usually healthy. I loved it when the whole family worked together to get a field of dry grass into the barn (仓房) before a rainstorm. It was exciting when we jumped out of bed at midnight to chase (追赶) the cows back after theyd escaped through a broken fence.Doing hard work at an early age taught me how rewarding it can be. These experiences taught me the value of hard work.24. What was the authors responsibility when he was a little boy?A. Working in a factory.B. Looking after animals.C. Selling bicycles.D.

Years of space exploration (探索) have left tons of “space junk”（太空垃圾）around the planet.According to the reports of BBC, there are more than 22,000 pieces of rubbish in space around the Earth. And these are just the objects that are easy to see. There may be millions of smaller pieces of rubbish that we cant see.The pieces of space junk move around the planet at very high speeds. They move so fast that even a very small piece can become dangerous. If they crashed (碰撞) into each other, it could cause explosions that might even hurt people on the Earth. If the tiniest piece of rubbish crashed into a space shuttle (航天飞机)，it could blow open a hole as big as an elephant.To help solve this problem, countries around the world have agreed to limit the time their space tools stay in space to 25 years. Each tool must fall safely into the Earths atmosphere, or upper parts of the sky. There, it will burn up, and it wont crash near the Earth.28. What is becoming a problem in outer space?A.

It means other places often look better, more interesting than the place 32 you live. Some people worry 33 young Chinese are beginning to feel that way. They see young Chinese ignoring Chinese culture and , instead, 34 Japanese cartoon books, watching Korean soap operas and even celebrating western holidays.Foreign books and soap operas are good, 35 Chinese writers and actors are just as good. As for holidays, Christmas is nice , but it can 36 have the meaning for Chinese that Spring Festival has, and the West has nothing to compare with Mid-autumn Festival.
