21、The word “day” has two meanings. When we talk about the number of days in a year, we are using “day” to mean 24 hours. But when we talk about day and night, we are using “day” to mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a ball, the sun can shine on only half of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning(旋转) of the earth.

At the equator(赤道) day and night are sometimes the same length. They are each twelve hours long. The sun rises at 6 o’clock in the morning and sets at 6 o’clock in the evening. For six months the North Pole(北极) is tilted(倾斜) toward the sun. In those months the Northern Hemisphere(半球) gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere. Days are longer than nights. South of the equator nights are longer than days. For the other six months the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Then the Southern Hemisphere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than nights. North of the equator nights are longer than days. Winter is the season of long nights. Summer is the season of long days.

【1】When people talk about the number of days in a year, the “day” here means _______.

A. the time between sunrise and sunset   B. 12 hours

C. 24 hours   D. from morning to evening

【2】A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by _______ of the earth.

A. the pushing   B. the pulling   C. the spinning   D. the passing

【3】At the equator day is as long as night _______.

A. sometimes   B. never   C. usually   D. always

【4】When the North Pole is tilted toward the sun, the Northern Hemisphere gets _______

sunlight.

A. less   B. more   C. all   D. no

22、One evening I visited the English corner of our town. It is near our school. There are trees and flowers and a small ground. Every evening, large numbers of people go there to improve their English, but I had never been there before.

When I arrived there, many people had already been there. I looked around and found that most of them were students. Some of them were talking in English in twos and threes. To my great surprise, I even found three foreigners talking and smiling with some students who were listening with great interest. Just then, a tall student came towards me and asked, “Shall we have a talk in English？” My heart beat very fast at that moment because it was the first time for me to visit the English corner. Anyway, I said, “Yes.” Soon we talked freely about our studies, our lives, our hobbies as well as our problems of learning English. Time went fast, and it was already 11 o'clock before I realised it.

23、For many people the subject of hiccups (嗝) is a joke, but for Harry Mendes, a fifteen-year-old schoolboy from Birmingham, it was something quite different.

His hiccups began one Sunday lunch time and continued day and night for two weeks. After the first week, Harry's parents took him to hospital, but it took another week for the doctors to cure his attack.

Harry, who is now back at school, described what happened to him.

“When I began to hiccup, I drank a glass of water but that didn't do any good. That evening I had hiccups every four seconds. We tried everything to stop them. I held my breath and drank cold drinks. My father even tried to give me a shock but that didn't work either.”

After a week of sleepless nights, he went to hospital. The doctors took an X-ray of his chest but they couldn't find anything wrong.

“They gave me some medicine and my hiccups slowed down, but it was another week before the medicine worked completely and my hiccups stopped.”

Harry was very lucky. The world record holder is the American farmer Charles Osborne, who hiccupped for sixty-eight years. He stopped in 1990 at last, but nobody knows why.

【1】Harry's hiccups lasted ____.

A. a week  B. fourteen days

C. twenty-eight days  D. one month

【2】His hiccups started after he ____.

A. drank a glass of water   B. went to hospital

C. ate an Indian meal   D. finished his homework

【3】His parents decided to take him to hospital when he ____.

A. hiccupped for four seconds

B. held his breath

C. hiccupped at night

D. couldn't stop hiccupping

【4】His hiccups completely stopped one week after the doctor ____.

A. gave him some medicine

B. took an X-ray of his chest

C. gave him a shock

D. let him drink cold drinks

【5】What does “shock” in this passage mean？

A.震惊   B. 休克 C. 喷嚏   D. 哈欠

24、   Welcome to BBC Take Away English, today we go on talking about some special festivals in Britain. Let’s come to the northern part-Scotland-a land of traditions. Here are three of them. Burns Night. Scottish people use this day to remember a poet n【1】 Robert Burns. People like playing music happily and r【2】 Burn’s poems aloud. They love eating haggis. The second one goes to Hogmanay. It’s on New Year’s Eve. People hold parties to c【3】 it. People also go “first footing” to visit their friends. They will bring a piece of bread and a piece of c【4】 to their friends. The last one is Highland Games. In summer, you can see men in kilts and socks. You can also find there are lots of women w【5】 beautiful skirts, scarves and b【6】. People also enjoy d【7】  to the music the band plays. There are lots of athletic events too. Don’t forget to try “tossing the caber”. Tomorrow we’ll introduce Edinburgh Festival. Hope you enjoy our program today. Next part is America Today. See you!

I’m Kevin. I’m talking to you in London. America Today is going to share two brave American people with you. The first one is John White, a bus driver. He often goes on a j【8】 in a boat with his family. However, this year is different, he sails around the world a【9】. That’s quite cool, right? He can see cute animals and beautiful islands. But sometimes he meets some p【10】, such as a bad storm. He thinks he is lucky to be alive. The nest brave person is Rick Hoyt. In many people’s hearts, he isn’t the loser of the triathlon even though he never w【11】. He can’t walk or talk because of cerebral palsy. But how can he take part in running, c【12】 and swimming? Thanks to his father, Dick Hoyt. When they run, Dick p【13】 his son in a wheelchair. When they cycle, Rick sits in a seat in front of his father’s bike. When they swim, Rick finishes it by l【14】 in a small boat and Dick swims and tries to p【15】 the boat. Team Hoyt encourages lots of people around the world. Do you have any questions about the two brave people? You can leave them on our websites. John White and Rick Hoyt will answer them online tomorrow. Thank you for your listening. Goodbye.
