26、When people today talk about a tiny house, they probably mean the trendy living space that‘s about the size of a shed (棚). But you would have to be five inches tall to live in the original tiny houses. Dollhouse(小房子)，which have been around for several centuries, don’t offer shelter to real people, but they provide a vivid（生动的） experience of life in times and places both real and imaginary.

The National Building Museum in Washington, D.C., lets visitors time travel in this tiny world through ―Small Stories: At Home in a Dollhouse,” an exhibit that opened Saturday. Visitors can see twelve dollhouses from the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, England, which contain amazing tiny furnishings. But those people who put together the exhibit also wanted visitors to know the characters inside.

“It’s 300 years of British homes told through their inhabitants (居民),” said Alice Sage, who is in charge of the London museum.

So as visitors look inside the Tate Baby House, a fancy townhouse from 1760, they can push a button to hear a young woman get a lecture from her mother on the proper way to run a home. In the Killer Cabinet house, a servant named Betsy complains about the problems of city life in the 1830s. “We’ve got the cat to keep the rats away,” she says.

That dollhouse was John Killer‘s gift to his wife and five daughters. The girls were allowed to play with the house, but they probably also learned a few lessons, Sage said.

“The kitchen of the house would have been the perfect way to teach the girls about the management of a home,” she said, noting the tiny dishes and pots.

Those who prefer a more modern look won't be disappointed. There are two rooms displaying a white dollhouse from 1935, an apartment house from the 1960s and a brightly colored 21st-century design.

The end of the exhibit shows how imaginative design sometimes works best in small spaces.

The Building Museum asked twenty-four artists, designers and architects from across the United States to each create a “dream room” from the past, present or future. Some of these unique small rooms were made using traditional furnishings, others from materials such as clay, insects, 3D-printing, and even peeps marshmallow candies!

【1】Which of the following were on show Saturday?

A. A dozen dollhouses from England.

B. Some old shelters for poor people.

C. Some imaginary tiny furnishings.

D. A couple of fashionable living spaces.

【2】What is the function of the characters inside the Museum?

A. Working as organizers of the exhibit.

B. Making the exhibit more attractive.

C. Providing good services for visitors.

D. Helping visitors understand dollhouses.

【3】What can we learn about the Killer Cabinet house?

A. It was made up of 24 tiny rooms.

B. Its kitchen may have an educational purpose.

C. Its history dates back to the 17th century.

D. It was owned by a woman named Betsy.

【4】What might be the best title of the passage?

A. An exhibit of dollhouses.

B. The history of dollhouses.

C. How to make a dollhouse.

D. Amazing tiny furniture.

27、"How can I learn English well?" This is a question many students ask. In my opinion the most effective way is to learn lessons by heart. If you can recite the text and write it out you’ve learned it fairly well. And if you can tell what the lesson says in your own words you're a very successful learner indeed. Your English will be quite perfect.

This is a difficult task. However if you try to learn by heart only part of each lesson you’ll find it not half as hard as you might have thought. Learning this way you will make rapid progress. Of course writing is also necessary. It helps you a lot on our way to success in English.

Equally important is to feel the language. You should be able to laugh at jokes and be shocked at bad news. When using English try to forget your mother tongue. Instead of helping you your own language gets in your way. So never try to see English through translation.

【1】In the writer’s opinion the most effective way in learning English is ____.

A．to practise speaking writing and feeling it

B．to forget your own native language

C．to learn lessons by heart.

D．to memorize the English words and grammatical rules

【2】"Instead of helping you your own language gets in your way." This sentence means that memorizing your own language can ________.

A．help you to study English well

B．stop you mastering English

C．make English easy to

D．help you notice mistakes

【3】Equally important is to feel the language. "to feel the language" here means________.

A．to get a knowledge of English by touching.

B．to be able to read and write English

C．to translate English into your own by imagining.

D．to be able to experience the rich language.

29、Procrastination (拖延症) gets people into trouble--leaving tasks until the very last moment is a Pandora’ s box of anxiety, uncertainty, and panic, but it’s still a popular way of planning our time. The healthier opposite would be to get tasks done as soon as possible, right? Wrong. It’s called precrastination (提前症) and it can be just as unhealthy.

Precrastination is not an uncommon phenomenon, driven by the desire to check things off one’s to-do list, in order not to keep in mind those tasks which fill up headspace and become a source of stress. While this tendency might seem positive, it often leads to similar negative results as procrastination. In a 2014 study, college students were asked to carry a bucket (桶) to a finish line in the easiest way possible. They had two choices-- carry the bucket placed halfway down the path, or carry the bucket that was close to the finish line. To the researchers’ surprise, most of the participants chose the bucket closest to them and carried it for a longer time, other than the one closest to the finish line to save themselves some effort.

Those college students chose to get started on a task earlier, even if it meant spending more energy in the longer term. And that’s the main problem with precrastination--it enables people to pay attention to urgent, easy-to-do tasks and get them out of the way quickly. But in doing so, people often leave important, more time-and-energy-consuming tasks for later, which they actually should have been saving their efforts for. Another shortcoming to precrastinating is the frenzy (疯狂) that accompanies the satisfaction of getting tasks done early. This hurried frenzy can replace careful planning and thought, ending in the rushed completion of a task often with mistakes.

Compared to procrastinators’ low efficiency, hyper-diligence (过度勤奋) is commonly seen in precrastinators. However, the only practice that can actually help people better organize their tasks and lives is careful, strategic planning. Meanwhile, they should get better at saying no, and above all, keep in mind that quality is better than quantity.

【1】What do we know about precrastination according to the text?

A．It’s as unhealthy as procrastination.

B．It makes people try to think logically.

C．It’s a popular way people use to plan their time.

D．It encourages people to do several tasks at the same time.

【2】What did the researchers find about most participants in the 2014 study?

A．They were difficult to satisfy.

B．They failed to understand the lecture.

C．They avoided carrying the heavier buckets.

D．They chose to work hard rather than work cleverly.

【3】What might come with people’s precrastination?

A．Their carelessness.

B．Their low interest.

C．Their overconfidence.

D．Their unnecessary competition.

【4】What is the author’s suggestion for readers?

A．Working at their own rate.

B．Valuing quality over quantity.

C．Trying to live a productive life.

D．Weighing gains and losses wisely.

Teenagers around Steve were interested in playing video games and they often shared their experience about how to play well. Steve was a very clever boy. He was good at playing games. He would win at any game he played. He won so many times that everyone around him saw him as champion.

In fact, Steve not only became an expert at all kinds of skills but he was also good at cheating because he couldn’t stand losing to anyone. He became so skilled at cheating that he could play practically and win any game by cheating without even being noticed. Every time he beat other boys, he would be proud to see others admiring him and praising his excellent skills. He enjoyed that feeling.

No one wants to play with someone who is always going to win. As time went by, almost no one around Steve wanted to play with him. But there was one poor boy named Tom who would always play with him. At first, Tom had few skills and Steve beat him easily. Gradually, Tom learnt more skills. It was still a piece of cake for Steve to beat him. One day Steve found that Tom became more skilled and it was a challenge to win the game with Tom. In order to win, Steve used his tricks. Tom was defeated. Since then, the tricks helped Steve win any game. Although Tom lost face, he would always accept Steve’s challenge. Champion Steve enjoyed himself at poor Tom’s expense and always made that poor boy look funny as he lost.

One day, Steve got bored with just playing around and thought that he could win bigger games. So he decided to apply for video game championship as he thought that there he would find some top players that could match him.
