26、It was one boring Saturday when my mom suggested a journey to Canada’s Wonderland Amusement Park. “Don’t you think we are too old for it?” I asked. “Well, you’ve never been to the Wonderland. Plus, it needs me to take some pictures for its advertisement, so I got three VIP tickets. I have invited Penny to join us.” Well, Penny was my mother’s best friend, and she was the promise of a thrilling journey, so I agreed and the next day I got the best shock of my life.

Penny did do the research thoroughly about every exciting ride. We started with the Flight Deck. With the train climbing, I felt my heart beat faster and faster. The cold bars turned warm and wet since I grasped them so tightly. Then out of sudden, it began to dash down. The next ten minutes was an outburst of screams, the wind buffeting through our hair, and a burst of laughter. I could hardly see anything clearly till the end of the journey. What an experience that was!

The Time Warp was not so different. We just had to lie on with face down instead of sitting. All I could do was close my eyes, hold my teeth together and pray that the whole ride ends so quickly. The little strength I had left was preserved for the Leviathan, the longest roller coaster in the park. That was the peak, the mother of all rides. I left that place nearly deaf, because tears blocked my ears. A ride on the bumper cars made me feel 15 years younger. Mum chose to take photos of us as Penny and I bumped into each other’s rides. After all the fun, we were really tired and headed back home.

If being a child could give one such pleasure and happiness, I would not really wish to grow up any time soon. I promised myself to go back and cover the places I did not go to.

【1】Why did the author agree to go the park?

A．Because she had never been to the park before.

B．Because she needed to take pictures of the park.

C．Because she got three VIP tickets from the park.

D．Because she thought it would be fun to go with Penny.

A．Touch.

B．Smell.

C．Sight.

D．Sound.

【3】Which does the author think is the most exciting?

A．The Leviathan.

D．The bumper cars.

【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph?

B．The author wished to grow faster.

C．The author enjoyed her visit to the park.

D．The author disliked her life now.

27、   Swedish teen Greta Thunberg began the climate strike movement in 2018 by sitting outside Parliament, protesting(抗议) her government's lack of action on global warming. Soon people were organizing similar protests around the world. The strikes were usually held on Fridays, which the protesters called “Fridays for Future”. Large climate strikes have now been held in many countries, making Thunberg the focus of attention. In September, 2019, 4 million people took part in another global climate strike. Most of the protesters were young people because they were worried that climate change would affect them much more than adults.

On 20th, July, 2020, she was awarded the Gulbenkian Prize for Humanity (GPFH), valued at one million euros. The prize is awarded each year to a person or group that is dealing with climate change in a powerful way. Thunberg was one of 135 people who were suggested for the prize from 46 countries around the world. The judges chose Thumherg not only because she worked hard to bring action on climate change, but because she inspired other young people to also take action.

Thunberg said she was “extremely honored” to win the Gulbenkian Prize. “That is more money than I can imagine,” she said. “But all the prize money will be donated, through my foundation, to different organizations and projects which are working to help people on the front line.

Thunberg has decided to give the first 100,000 euros to SOS Amazonia to help slow COVID—19outbreak in the Amazon rainforest. She's giving another 100,000 euros of the prize money to the Stop Ecocide Foundation. It is a group which has the goal of making it illegal to destroy the environment.

28、   I wandered into the small store where I usually buy milk，when the store owner received a call from a customer. The customer and his wife had shopped there several months earlier. He noticed that his wife really liked one thing in the store，so he wanted to buy it as a surprise.

But the customer was in Tennessee，far away from the store which was in Maine. What was more，he had been to the store several months earlier，and it was difficult to believe that the store owner would remember him，or what he was looking for.

The store owner took a few close-up photos with her camera，and e-mailed them to the customer on the computer. The customer looked at the photos，and decided which one he wanted. They talked and discussed a price over the phone. She took care of the credit card transaction (交易) online，and promised the gift would be shipped out that afternoon.

The store owner was really smart. She was willing to push herself to find new ways to make the transaction actually happen. And it did work. However，it was the first time she had ever done it.

I was amazed that the store owner discovered a creative solution that could lead to a new way of doing business. I was impressed by what she did—so easily，but how difficult it is for many of us to make that leap (飞跃). I'm not just talking about technology，but about learning how to adapt to change. Most people hate or fear change unless they get to know exactly what change needs to be made. However，we should realize that challenge and opportunity go hand in hand.

D.cadb

Contrary to popular belief, she told CNBC Make It that she truly became successful when she quit working round-the-clock.

After coming to realise the importance of sleep, Huffington started to see a difference in her work   【3】 (方式) and that’s when her business began to grow.
