24、  The American secret service began in 1865. It has many important jobs. One is to stop different types of fraud(诈骗)， such as printing fake(假的) money, credit card(信用卡) fraud and computer fraud. The other is to protect the president at all times.

The secret service’s earliest job was to stop people from making fake money. The secret service agents(特工) still have to do that because the criminals(罪犯) are smarter now. They are better at using computers and other expensive equipment. But agents are much smarter.

Protecting the president is hard. The most dangerous places are outdoors. Agents can’t check every person in the crowd, so they must watch the crowd carefully. And they always follow the president. They’re just like the president’s shadow.

Unluckily, some criminals do want to give the president trouble, or even hurt him. The secret service agents try to find them and stop them when they want to do something bad. It’s a dangerous, but important job. The secret service helps keep the president and the country safe.

26、 Imagine the situation. You are driving along in a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device（装置） which uses satellites to find the user’s position. It can find your position to within 20 meters. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.

GPS, which means Global Positioning System（全球定位系统）, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put in you pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.

There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. the second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.

Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile. They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate（精确的）. There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.GPS

【1】According to the passage, with the help of the GPS, people _________.

A. can’t be lost in a new city

B. can’t find their way in different counties

C. can learn about the culture of an unknown place

D. can spend the least time getting to another place

【2】We can learn from the passage that ___________.

A. there are three parts to the GPS

B. a GPS can’t be put into a watch

C. a GPS can help you start your car

D. the GPS are becoming more and more expensive

【3】The underlined word “They” in paragraph 3 means “__________”.

A. Receivers   B. GPS devices

C. Satellites D. Ground stations

【4】The passage is mainly about ____________.

A. The history of the GPS   B. the introduction of GPS

C. the shape of the GPS   D. the three parts of the GPS

【5】What can we infer（推断） from the passage?

A. All GPS devices have electronic maps.

B. People in many countries will use the GPS for free.

C. The receiver of the GPS contacts at least five of the satellites.

D. The GPS will become more and more common in everyday life.

27、I read somewhere that we spend a full third of our lives waiting. But where are we doing all of this waiting, and what does it mean to an impatient society like ours? To answer these questions correctly, let’s take a look at three types of “waits”.

The very purest form of waiting is the Watched-Pot Wait. It is without doubt the most tiring of all. Take filling up the kitchen sink (洗碗池) as an example. There is nothing you can do while this is going on but keep both eyes fixed on the sink until it’s full. During these waits, the brain gets away from the body and wanders about until the water runs over the edge of the counter and onto your socks. This kind of wait makes the waiter helpless and mindless.

A cousin to the Watched-Pot Wait is the Forced Wait. This one requires some rules. Properly preparing packaged noodle soup requires a Forced Wait. Directions are clear in details. “Bring three cups of water to boil, add mix, simmer (炖) three minutes, remove from heat, let stand five minutes.” I have my doubts that anyone has actually followed the processes strictly. After all, Forced Waiting requires patience.

Perhaps the most powerful type of waiting is the Lucky-Break Wait. This type of wait is unusual in that it is for the most part voluntary. Unlike the Forced Wait, which is also voluntary, waiting for your lucky break does not necessarily mean that it will happen.

Turning one’s life into a waiting game requires belief and hope, and is quite useful for the optimists (乐观主义) among us. On the surface it seems as silly as following the directions on soup mixes, but the Lucky-Break Wait well serves those who are willing to do it. As long as one doesn’t come to depend on it, wishing for a few good things to happen never hurts anybody. We certainly do spend a good deal of our time waiting. The next time you’re standing at the sink waiting for it to fill while cooking noodle soup that you’ll have to eat until a large bag of cash falls out of the sky, don’t be hopeless. You’re probably just as busy as the next guy.

【1】According to the passage, we have to spend a lot of time to wait because ________.

A．we all live in an impatient society

B．the three “waits” are common in our lives

C．we often stand at the sink to wait cooking

D．the “waits” helps us get out of the trouble

【2】What’s the underlined phrase “wanders about” mean in Paragraph 2?

A．hangs around

B．watches out

C．cares about

D．comes across

【3】The writer probably agrees ________.

A．the Forced Wait requires some self-control

B．the Forced Wait makes people powerful

C．the Watched-Pot Wait needs directions

D．the Watched-Pot Wait attracts body and brain

【4】What can we learn about the Lucky-Break Wait?

A．It is less voluntary than the Forced Wait.

B．It doesn’t always bring the expecting result.

C．It is more mindless than the Forced Wait.

D．It doesn’t give people faith and hope.

28、根据短文内容和首字母提示，把文中所缺词语补充出来,使短文完整、正确、通顺。(每空限填一词。)

Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. D【1】 the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds' singing. But as time passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I w【2】 to give up climbing, but my father said to me,“You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can't see it b【3】 you reach the top. Only there can you see all of the nice things, which is just like your life.”

At that time, I was too young to understand his w【4】. But later after that, I got to know the meaning of hope in life. I found m【5】 standing at the top of the mountain, and the sky was as clear as crystal.
