The daughter was young and pretty. Her name was Blair, and she was obviously leaving. Her parents were not. The three gazed at the crowd and began their wait. Blair was twenty-three, fresh from graduate school with a handsome rsum (简历) but not ready for a career. A friend from college was in Africa as a volunteer for Peace Work, which had inspired Blair to devote the next two years to helping others. Her assignment was in eastern Peru, where she would teach primitive little children how to read. She would live in a hut with no modern conveniences, no electricity and no phones, and she was anxious to begin her journey.The flight would take her to Miami, then to Lima, then by bus for three days into the mountains, into another country. For the first time in her young and sheltered life, Blair would spend Christmas away from home.Luther, her father, was sad that Blair was leaving. The goodbyes had all been said. “Are you sure this is what you want?” had been asked for the hundredth time. Then, the first announcement was made, the one asking those in first class to come forward.“I guess wed better go,” Luther said to his daughter, his only child. They hugged again and fought back the tears. Blair smiled and said, “The year will fly by. Ill be home next Christmas.”Nora, her mother, bit her lip, nodded and kissed her once more. “Please be careful,” she said because she couldnt stop saying it.“Ill be fine.”They released her and watched helplessly as she joined a long line and inched away, away from them, away from home and security and everything shes ever known. They turned and got inot endless sadness.24. Whats the reason for Blairs decision to help others?A. Her friends behaviour.C. Support from her parents.B. Her successful career.D. Her colleges requirement.25. What were the family waiting for?A. The flight to Lima.C. The bus to the mountains.B. The flight to Miami.D. The bus to another country.26. Which words can best describe Luther and Noras feelings?A. Indifferent and cold.C. Heartbroken but relaxed. B. Pleased and appreciative.D. Understanding but concerned.27. What can we infer about Blair in the passage?A. She was tired of city life.B. She was twenty-three years old.C. She used to spend Christmas in Peru.D. She would be in first class in the flight.CThere are around 6,000 living languages in the worldand at least half of these are in danger. In every part of the world, languages are disappearing. In fact, one scientist has said that languages are in more danger of extinction than birds or animals. Professor Steve Sutherland of the University of East Anglia says that in the past 500 years 4.5 percent of languages have died outcompared with 1.3 percent of birds, and 1.9 percent of mammals.Languages come and go, and thousands have done exactly that without leaving any trace(痕迹). Only a very fewBasque, Greek and Latin among themhave lasted more than 2000 years. But it seems that the pace of their disappearance is becoming quicker.The Ethnologue, a database of all the languages spoken in the world, states that 417 languages are spoken by so few people that they are in the final stages of becoming extinct. If very few people speak a language, it will probably die out.Languages may be lost through migration, as people move from small towns to city centers, or when environments are destroyed by the search for oil or wood. Natural disasters can also devastate populations, and along with them, their language. Governments also play a role in the extinction of languages. The need to establish “official languages”, for a country to educate its children and carry out its business, had a disastrous effect on many small languages.What is lost if a language is lost? Some people argue that languages die as the human race develops. Obviously there could be great benefits if everyone in the world spoke the same languagesome industries already reflect this, with English essential for pilots and air traffic controllers. But there are more important things than convenience. As languages are lost, whole ways of life and knowledge may be lost along with them.To put it simply, language expresses something about who we are, about where we live in the world. Ani Rauhihi, a Maori teacher in New Zealands North Island, sums it up: “If you grow up speaking our language, you wont know who you are.”28. What do the figures mentioned in the first paragraph suggest?A. Most languages have died out completely.B. Languages are in great danger of extinction.C. Languages are disappearing slower than before.D. Animals are disappearing faster than languages.29. What can best replace the underlined word “devastate” ?A.raiseB.controlC. improveD. destroy30. What if a language is lost according to the passage?A. There will be great trouble.B. There is no need to worry about it.C. Its culture and knowledge will also be lost.D. People will be able to communicate with others conveniently.31. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Languages reflect our identity.B. People will speak the same language one day.C. Ani Rauhihi cares less about languages dying out.D. Fewer people will remember their own languages.DFor environmental reasons, Britain will ban all new petro-and diesel-powered vehicles from its roads beginning in 23 years, a government report says.The plan, expected Wednesday, aims to start removing petrol and diesel engines in 2040. It follws a similar official statement in France and somes after the British government was ordered by the High Court to develop new plans to reduce NO2 in the air. Judges ruled that previous clean-air plans were not enough to meet European Union pollution limits in the coming years.Britains government has said the poor air quality has an unneccessary and avoidable negative effect on citizens health, and costs up to $ 3.5 billion in annual lost productivity.Part of the new plan involves an offer of $ 260 million to local governments to change rules where vehicle emissions(排放) are over EU standards. Ideas so far include chaging road layouts, reprogramming traffic lights and charging a fee for the oldest and most polluting cars on the road.The plan also includes $1.3 billion for government purchase of extreme-low-emission vehicles, nearly $ 130 million to improve infrastructure for electric vehicle charging stations and $ 378 million for remodling existing vehicles.Climate change is also a reason for the plan to get these vehicles off the road. “We cant carry on with petrol and diesel cars,” Environment Secretary Michael Gove said. “Its important we all prepare for a significant change which deals not just with the problems of health caused by emissions, but the broader problems caused in terms of accelerating climate change.”Gove added that local communities are partly responsible for coming up with ways to limit emissions, including posssible limitations on commuters(上下班往返者) and the addition of cleaner mass transportation options. Local leaders are called on to draw up “appropriate plans” to deal with climate challenges related to emission, he said.32. Why does the British government decide on this ban?A. To focus on its citizens health.B. To follow in Frances footsteps.C. To respond to the courts request.D. To promote solar energy in transport.33. Which measure may the British government take to achieve its plan?A. Limiting the number of traffic lights.B. Removing old and high-emission vehicles.C. Spenging some money on electric vehicles.D. Changing the way in which roads are arranged.34. What can be inferred from Goves words?A. United efforts are required to achieve the plan.B. Convenient public transportatio is badly needed.C. Vehicle emissions are the key factor in climate change.D. Petrol and diesel cars may hold back economic progress.35. What is the suitable title for this passage?A. Practical ways to reduce vehicle emissionsB. The EU forces Britain to improve the poor air qualityC. Britain plans to take petrol and diesel engines off roadsD.

Take a look around and talk to your friends and seniors who are very successful, you will see all of them have adopted certain values which have proved important for their success.It is evident that successful people take initiative(主动性). When they find something needs to be done, they never hesitate to do it. 36 They weigh immediately what has to be done and then do it with pleasure thus strengthening their reputation.Successful people do things with great enthusiasm, especially when they believe in what they are doing. They are motivated by their own satisfaction and the joy they get from doing their work. 37They do not fear failure. Failures and disappointments in life are unavoidable. 38 Successful people pick themselves up after a fall and try again with more determination and commitment and learn from each failure.
