“Greenland”，and my interest grew from there.Finally，after decades，I decided to go.When I finally arrived，the place，at first glance，was clearly misnamed:The east coast of Greenland was an expanse (宽阔的区域) of ice and snow，with no sign of human habitation.One of my purposes of going to Greenland was to make contact with some native Greenlanders.I didnt know how I would achieve this，but success came in an unexpected way.When I arrived at the Illunnguujuk Hostel，where I had reserved a bed，a young couple and their baby were out front，enjoying the sun and unusual warmth.Greenlanders speak their own Inuit language and learn Danish in school，and many also speak English well.The young woman，however，was not one of these.Her English turned out to be anticlimacticWhen I identified myself，her eyes widened.Another traveler had arrived earlier and，mistaking him for me，they had given him my bed.There was no more space in the hostel.“But dont worry，”she said，as she threw herself into cleaning a tiny house the family owned.“This is for you，”she said.And as if that werent enough，she invited me to eat supper with her family.That evening I sat down to a dinner of fresh fish with a loving，happy native family.When I first set foot in Greenland I found myself all but shocked by the emptiness，the vastness，and the silence.I had decided that I would probably never return.And then I was taken into this Greenlandic home.I can now say that even cold，empty，and silent scenery is worth visiting，so long as one has a warm and welcoming place to go to.24What did the author intend to do in Greenland?AGet a parttime job.BLive with a native family.CMake some native contact.DDo business with the natives.25What does the underlined word “anticlimactic” in Paragraph 4 mean?ASimple.BModern.COutstanding.DDisappointing.26The author lost his bed in the hostel because of _Athe language barrierBa misunderstandingCa wrong addressDthe high price27What made the authors visiting Greenland worthwhile?ATasting the local food.BHelping a local family.CMeeting friendly people.DEnjoying the great scenery.CIt is widely known that any English conversation begins with the weather.Such a fixation with the weather finds expression in Dr.Johnsons famous comment that “When two Englishmen meet，their first talk is of weather.” Though Johnsons observation is as accurate now as it was over two hundred years ago，most commentators fail to come up with a convincing explanation for this English weatherspeak.Bill Bryson，for example，concludes that，as the English weather is not at all exciting，the obsession with it can hardly be understood.He argues that “To an outsider，the most striking thing about the English weather is that there is not very much of it.” Simply，the reason is that the unusual and unpredictable weather is almost unknown in the British Isles.Jeremy Paxman，however，disagrees with Bryson，arguing that the English weather is by nature attractive.Bryson is wrong，he says，because the English preference for the weather has nothing to do with the natural phenomena.“The interest is less in the phenomena themselves，but in uncertainty.” According to him，the weather in England is very changeable and uncertain and it attracts the English as well as the outsider.Bryson and Paxman stand for common misconceptions about the weatherspeak among the English.Both commentators，somehow，are missing the point.The English weather conversation is not really about the weather at all.English weatherspeak is a system of signs，which is developed to help the speakers overcome the natural reserve and actually talk to each other.Everyone knows conversations starting with weatherspeak are not requests for weather data.Rather，they are routine greetings，conversation starters or the blank “fillers”In other words，English weatherspeak is a means of social bonding.28The author mentions Dr.Johnsons comment to show that _Amost commentators agree with Dr.JohnsonBDr.Johnson is famous for his weather observationCthe comment was accurate two hundred years agoDEnglish conversations usually start with the weather29What does the underlined word “obsession” most probably refer to?AA social trend.BAn emotional state.CA historical concept.DAn unknown phenomenon.30According to the passage，Jeremy Paxman believes that _ABill Bryson has little knowledge of the weatherBthere is nothing special about the English weatherCthe English weather attracts people to the British IslesDEnglish people talk about the weather for its uncertainty31What is the authors main purpose of writing the passage?ATo explain what English weatherspeak is about.BTo analyse misconceptions about the English weather.CTo find fault with both Bill Bryson and Jeremy Paxman.DTo convince people that the English weather is changeable.DSand，sun，fitness，and fun were popular at the LeapFrogs Fit Made Fun Day event on September 6.With LeapFrogs new LeapBand activity tracker，the event took place at Santa Monica Beach in California to educate kids about staying active.The LeapBand is LeapFrogs newest product.It straps(用带子系好) onto the wrist，like a watch，and features

exercising should be fun “whether its playing soccer with your friends or hopping on one foot or dancing”She advises aspiring athletes(有志向的) to “go for it.Its a lot of hard work，but its meaningful”Later in the afternoon，the crowd came together to try to break three Guinness World Records: the most people making sand angels，the most people hopping on one foot，and the most people doing the swim dance.Participants (参加者) enjoyed exercising together，dancing，hopping，and flapping along to music.Better yet，they broke all three records! Ahearn hopes these families and many more continue to take part in fitness activities.“Fun is the most important thing，”he says.32The event LeapFrogs Fit Made Fun Day is to _Aencourage participants to

the passage，what can we know?AKids dont understand the value of active life.BThe activities of the event are concerned with fitness.CSoccer doesnt mean a lot to Hamm.DAhearn thinks breaking all three
