The bag contained a book.This chance discovery ended a 12-day search by the Library Company of Philadelphia for a historical treasurea 120-page diary kept 190 years age by Deborah Logan, “a woman who knew everybody in her day,” James Green, the librarian told the magazine American Libraries.Most of the diary is a record of big events in Philadelphia. It also includes a description of British soldiers burning Washington D.C. in the war of 1812. She describes President James Madison on horseback as “perfectly shaking with fear” during the troubled days. George Washington, she writes, mistook her for the wife of a French man and praised her excellent English.The adventure of the lost book began on September 4 when Cory Luxmoore arrived from England to deliver the diary of his ancestor（祖先）to the Library Company, which he and his wife considered to be the best home for the diary.Green told American Libraries he had the diary in his possession “about five minutes” when Luxmoore took it back because he had promised to show it to one other person. On returning to his hotel after showing the precious book to Green, Luxmoore was shocked to realise that he had left it in the taxi.Without any delay, Green began calling taxi company in the city, with no luck, “Ive felt sick since then,” Luxmoore told reporters.According to Green, no one has yet learned how the diary came to the office building.Tom Brennan received a reward（奖励）of $1,000, Philadelphia gained another treasure for its history, and Luxmoore told reporters, “Its wonderful news. Im on high”.24. This article mainly tells about the story of _.A. a lost diaryB. Deborah LoganC. Cory LuxmooreD. the Library Company25. From the text, we learn that the diary is now owned by _.A.

Arms crossed, he stares up wide-eyed and open-mouthed at the fireworks in the sky.Despite the absence of any information about the child other than his age 9, the image Lucas Landau shot for Reuters news agency has sparked tens of thousands of shares and comments on social media, newspaper articles, blog posts and a national debate about race, class and inequality. To some, its just a photo of a young black boy attracted by the spectacular New Years Eve fireworks. People need to stop thinking that all black boys, without shirts on, are abandoned, sad, alone and unhappy. To others, the image is emblematic of Brazils acute inequality.About half of Brazils population of 200 million identify as mixed-race/black, second only to Nigeria. But black and mixed-raced Brazilians are underrepresented in academia, politics and leadership roles. Less than 10 percent of Brazils Congress is black, and just 18 percent of leadership roles and held by Afro-Brazilians.For Luiz Augusto Campos, a sociologist at Rio State University, the wide-ranging interpretations of the photo, as well as the explosive debate it generated, represents a changing tide for Afro-Brazilians. “The fact that its become so problematic is a reflection of a complex transition in terms of race in Brazil,” he said, adding that 20 or 30 years ago, the photo would have stirred few or no concerns about whether it strengthened negative stereotypes（刻板印象）.“These changes are still relatively small in Brazil, but they have the long-term objective of dissociating the ideas of blackness and poverty,” Campos said.28. What can we learn from the passage?A. The boy in the photo has been abandoned and needs urgent help.B. Afro-Brazilians are mistreated because they are in the minority.C. The debate the image generates worsens the acute inequality.D. The boys age is mentioned in the news.29. Which word can be used to replace the underlined word “emblematic”?A. Problematic.B. Representative.C. Objective.D. Significant.30. Which of the following statements may Campos agree with?A. The debate reflects a positive tendency in Brazil.B. The debate could have been more fierce 20 or 30 years ago.C. The Afro-Brazilians should fight for their rights.D. The Afro-Brazilians have successfully raised their social status.31. What problem does the photo reflect according to this passage?A. The racial inequality in Brazil.B. The social status of the Afro-Brazilians.C. The stereotype to associate blackness with poverty in Brazil.D. The Afro-Brazilians fighting for rights.DScientists in Rome have unveiled the first bionic（仿生的）hand with a sense of touch that can be worn outside a laboratory. The recipient, Almerina Mascarello, who lost her left hand in an accident nearly 25 years ago, said “It is almost like it is back again”.In 2014 the same international team produced the worlds first feeling bionic hand. But the sensory and computer equipment it was linked to was too large to leave the laboratory. Now the technology is small enough to fit in a backpack, making it portable.The prosthetic hand（假肢）has sensors that detect information about whether an object is soft or hard. These messages are linked to a computer in a backpack that converts these signals into a language the brain will understand. The information is relayed to Almerinas brain via tiny electrodes（电极）implanted in nerves in the upper arm. In tests Almerina who was blindfolded was able to tell whether the object she was picking up was hard or soft.Professor Silverstro Micera, a neuroengineer at EPFL in Lausanne and Sant Anna School of Advanced Studies in Pisa told me, “We are going more and more in the direction of science fiction movies like Luke Skywalkers bionic hand in Star Wars a fully controlled, fully natural, sensorised prosthesis, identical to the human hand.” A robotic prosthesis better than the human hand is still a long way off, but the team believe it might eventually be a reality.Almerina was able to keep the bionic hand for six months, but it has now been removed, as it is still a prototype. The scientific team say they hope to miniaturise（使小型化）the technology even further so that a sensory bionic hand can be commercialised. Almerina said that when the bionic hand is perfected, she would like it back for good.32. What did the underlined word “it” in Para. 1 refer to?A. The bionic handB. her lost handC. the sense of touchD. the accident33. What does Para. 3 mainly talk about?A. How the bionic hand is developed.B. How Almerina feels in the experiment.C. How the bionic hand works.D. How to use the bionic hand.34. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. The worlds first bionic hand is not practical in terms of size.B. The researchers believe a robotic prosthesis will be better than the human hand.C. The researchers got the idea after being inspired by the film, Star Wars.D. We can hardly distinguish the bionic hand from a real one.35. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Almerina is still wearing the experimental hand.B. We can buy the bionic hand in the market.C. The scientist team is skeptical about the future of the bionic hand.D. Almerina will buy one after the bionic hand is perfected.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How To Study English In ChinaEnglish is obviously not the native language in China.

Memorize vocabulary.Write new words in a notebook every week, with English definitions and a sample sentence, not a Chinese translation. 39 Carry it with you everywhere you go.
