22、Some people believe that dreams can tell them what will happen in the future. Nobody knows why, but there are many stories about people who have had dreams that came true. One of these people was a man called John Chapman, who lived in the small town of Swaffham in England. He dreamed that he was standing on London bridge and a man told him how to become rich. John Chapman was a poor man and he needed money, so the next day he set off for London. He walked for three days and three nights and at last arrived at London Bridge. There were plenty of people on the bridge, but they were not interested in him. They all ignored him. After three days, he decided to go home, but before he could do this, a shopkeeper approached him.
“I’ve been watching you,” the shopkeeper said. “Are you waiting for someone?”
“Yes,” said John. “I had a dream about a man on London Bridge. He was going to lead me to a lot of money.”
“Oh,” said the shopkeeper. “You shouldn’t believe in dreams. If I believed in dreams, I’d be in Swaffham right now. I had a dream a few days ago about a man from Swaffham. His name was John Chapman and he had gold in his garden near an old apple tree.”

23、Recently, a solar-powered(太阳能动力的) plane took to the sky for the first time. It passed an important test on the way to travel around the world.
The plane took off from an airport(飞机场) in Switzerland. It slowly rose above the fields and into the sky.
“There was never a plane of that kind that could fly—never a plane so big, so light, using so little energy.” Said Bertrand Piccard, a leader of the project.
During the 90-miunte flight(飞行), the plane did several turns. It climbed 1.6 km above the countryside.
Engineers plan to test a night flight(飞行) before July. Then they will use the results of the tests to build a second plane. They plan to travel around the world in that plane in 2012.
“We want to fly it day and night with no fuel(燃料),”Piccard said. Piccard and pilot Andre Borschberg will take the plane around the world. They will make a few stops to change places and rest after a long time in the air-and to show off their plane.
The plane will fly at 70 km per hour on average(平均). That is faster than a bike and slower than a car. The pilots will keep the plane in the air for up to five days at a time.
【1】The passage is probably taken from .
A. a postcard B. a newspaper C. a comic book D. an advertisement
【2】The solar-powered plane .
A. is big and heavy B. uses much energy
C. passed the first flight test D. will have a night flight before July.
【3】How long will it take the solar-powered plane to travel 140 km?
A. About a day and a night. B. About 5 days.
C. About 2 hours. D. About 90 minutes.
【4】Which of the following is NOT mentioned(提到) in the passage?
A. During the 90 –minute flight, the solar-powered plane reached a height of 1.6 km.
B. The solar-powered plane is slower than a car and faster than a bike.
C. Maybe the solar-powered plane will fly with no fuel.
D. It took a long time to build the solar-powered plane.
24、 Modesty(谦逊) is a valuable quality in many cultures around the world. In China, this is no different. However, the phrase “毛遂自荐” seems to disagree with this.
During the Warring States Period, the Qin army marched(进军) on Handan. Seeing that Handan was in danger, Prince Pingyuan sought help from the state of Chu. He wanted to pick 20 talented people to go with him. However, he could only find 19 people who were good enough. Then, a man named Mao Sui volunteered.
Prince Pingyuan looked at Mao Sui with doubt, “How long have you been here with me?”
“Three years,” Mao Sui answered.
“I hear that a person with talent is like an awl(锥子) in a cloth bag. Its sharp point will soon pierce(戳) through the bag. You’ve been here for a long time, but I haven’t seen any of your achievements. Maybe you don’t have any talent.” said Prince Pingyuan.
“What I’m asking you now is to put me into that bag. If you do that, I will pierce through it. But not only the point — the whole awl,” Mao Sui said confidently.
Impressed, Prince Pingyuan allowed Mao to join his team, and Mao proved very helpful. Now the phrase “Mao Sui recommending himself” is used to describe someone who volunteers to do a task.
However, there is a fine line between self-confidence and arrogance(傲慢). It’s important to believe in yourself, but a strong ego can harm your career and professional relationships. So we recommend letting your work speak for itself.
【1】Where was Mao Sui from?
A.Qin. B.Chu. C.Handan. D.Pingyuan.
【2】What does the phrase “毛遂自荐” mean?
A.Show modesty. B.Feel unconfident.
C.Be professional. D.Volunteering for a task.
【3】The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 6 means ________.
A.putting an awl into a bag
B.putting Mao Sui into a bag
C.letting Mao Sui join the team
D.refusing Mao Sui
【4】What can we learn from the passage?
A.Modesty isn’t a valuable quality.
B.Mao Sui was a confident person.
C.Prince Pingyuan didn’t like Mao Sui.
D.The writer thinks we should learn from Mao Sui.
