24、Now students’ English handwriting gets worse and worse. Their teachers worry about that. Is your English handwriting beautiful? If not, here are four steps that really work!

Use paper with lines

Using paper with lines can keep you writing straight instead of up or down when you write English words or sentences. Those lines on the paper can help you to write words in the right size. Be sure to fill the lined space completely. And remember that those capital letters are written properly.

Slow down

If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. For some kids, going a little slowly makes the handwriting clear. If you write too fast, it’s hard for you to stop where you should, and even worse, you may make more mistakes.

Hold your pencil correctly

When you hold your pencil correctly, writing is much easier. Some kids press down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting not nice. Try to be relaxed and don’t hold the pencil so hard. Let your writing appear nice and clean. If you do so, people will guess you are a student with a good habit.

Draw more pictures

Drawing can improve your handwriting. You need to use the skills to control your pencil better when you are drawing pictures. Even though you have no chance to draw at school, you can practice by yourself at home.

Handwriting is very important. Imagine you are a world-famous movie star or a well-known sports player, what do you do when your fans run up to you? Give them your autographs, of course!

25、   The water hyacinth（水葫芦）grows in tropical countries where the weather is hot and wet. It has beautiful purple-blue flowers, but everybody hates it. Why?

Millions and millions of these plants grow in rivers and lakes. Sometimes the plants become so thick that people can walk on them. People cannot travel in boats on the water, and they cannot fish in it. The plants stop the water from moving. Then the water carries diseases. Farmers cannot use the water on their land.

Now scientists think that water hyacinths can be useful. The plants are really a free crop. No one has to take care of them. They just grow and grow and grow. What can farmers use them for?

Some fish like to eat them. Farmers can grow these fish in the lakes and rivers.

Workers can collect and cut the plants with machines. Then they can make fertilizer(肥料) to make their crops grow better. They can also make feed for their farm animals.

Now we burn gas from petroleum(石油) for energy. Maybe this plant can help to make methane gas (CH4) instead of petroleum. Methane gas can be made from plants. Then poor tropical countries will not have to buy so much expensive petroleum. Maybe in the future people will love the water hyacinth instead of hating it.

【1】According to the passage, the water hyacinth can grow in________.

A.Russia. B.Canada. C.Thailand

【2】Why do people hate water hyacinths?

A.No fish can live in the water with water hyacinths.

B.Water hyacinths are useless.

C.Water hyacinths prevent water from moving.

【3】From the passage, we know________.

A.water hyacinths should be taken care of .

B.water hyacinths are hard to grow.

C.farmers can keep some fish in the water with water hyacinths.

【4】What can we infer(推断) from the last paragraph(段落) ?

A.People won’t use this plant in the future.

B.CH4 is a kind of gas that people can burn to get energy.

C.The tropical countries will get all of the energy from petroleum.

【5】What is the main idea of the passage?

A.How to get the energy from this plant.

B.Two sides of water hyacinths.

C.We should grow water hyacinths at once.

26、   Want to say “hello” to the persons you love? Send a postcard! Beautiful scenes, wild animals, silly pictures—you can find them all in one place. Where? On a postcard.

Have people always sent postcards? No. Before postcards, people liked to send sealed (密封的) letters. The idea for the first decorated postcard appeared in 1861. Sending a simple postcard with decorations would be a great way to send a note. Then in the early days, postcards with pictures appeared. According to the law, people had to write their notes on the front—on the picture! The back was only for the address. Several years later, England allowed a divided-back postcard. Then people could write their notes on the back left side and put the address on the right, the front is for pictures. During the early 1900s, the golden age of postcards, picture postcards became popular around the world. In 1908, Americans alone sent over 677 million postcards. Today, postcards are the third most popular collection in the world after stamps and coins. And more and more people send emails to their loved ones on Internet.

【1】People use ________ to say “hello” to the persons they love, before postcards came into their daily life.

A.pictures B.postcards C.sealed letters D.books

【2】People wrote their notes ________ before England allowed a divided-back postcard.

A.on the top of the postcard B.on the back left side of the postcard

C.on the back right side of the postcard D.on the front of the postcard

【3】_______ is the right order when people send messages in the history according to the passage.

A.Sealed letters—postcards—emails B.Postcards—emails—sealed letters

C.Sealed letters—emails—postcards D.Emails—Sealed letters—postcards

27、   Even though she’s quite young, Drew Barrymore can be a Hollywood legend (传奇). She was born on February 22, 1975, in California. Being from a family that produced great actors, she quickly found her way into the spotlight (聚光灯).

When she was 11 months old, she made her first advertisement on TV. She made her first movie at the age of 2. Five years later, she acted Gertie in Steven Spielberg’s famous film E.T. (1982).

However, it wasn’t all roses and sunshine when Barrymore was growing up. She once went to the dark side and became a big problem. Most kid stars in Hollywood fail to become stars as adults. And most of the time, once they’re out of the spotlight, they stay out. But Drew Barrymore doesn’t. As she was growing older, Barrymore started to realize that life is more meaningful than dangerous actions in the films. She started to build a career in 1997. She has made a series of successful films since then, including Charlie’s Angels (2000) and 50 First Dates (2004).

“In my life, there is darkness and drama, and I have yet to explore some of that in my work life. I just want to challenge myself and prove that I can do more.”

Actually, anyone who’s not familiar with her disordered childhood might find it hard to  believe she’s such a sweet person now. Like many of the characters she plays in her comedy, Drew is easy-going and laughs a lot. In 2007, she was on the cover of People magazine’s 100 Most Beautiful People issue.

“Life is very interesting ... in the end, some of your greatest pains, become your greatest strengths,” Drew said.

【1】Drew Barrymore made her first movie in ___________.

A.1975 B.1977 C.1979 D.1982

A.she always has roses and sunshine in her life

B.she used to be a famous kid star in Hollywood

C.she didn’t give up even when she met difficulties

【3】Which is the correct order of Drew Barrymore’s life?

①She made the film Charlie’s Angels.

②She went to the dark side and became a big problem.

③She acted Gertie in Steven Spielberg’s famous film E.T.

④She is on the cover of People magazine’s 100 Most Beautiful People issue.

A.③②①④ B.④②①③ C.②③④① D.①③②④

【4】Which of the following chart (图表) can best describe Drew Barrymore’s career (till 2007)?

A. B. C. D.

【5】Which of the following words can be used to describe Drew Barrymore according to the passage?

I live 【2】 a forest in Ohio, America. I can walk there in three minutes. I used to love going there to play with my dog. But one day there was 【3】 much litter there that I became very unhappy.

I can’t understand why people dump litter, but I will keep on picking it up until they stop 【10】 (do) so. I know I am just doing a small bit to help the earth, but I still think it is important.

29、   My father was an ill-humored man. I knew he loved me and his love was deep. He just didn't know how to______it.  

One evening we went out for a night in the town. We were sitting in an elegant restaurant that had a small but lively band. When it played a familiar waltz tune I decided to   invite   him for a dance.    

"Dad, you know I've never danced with you before. I begged you but you never wanted to. How about right now?"     

I waited for the______ refusal. But instead, he considered thoughtfully and then said, "Let's hit the floor and I'll   show you just what kind of moves an old guy like me can still make. “My father took me______his arms and I felt overcome by emotion.     

As we danced, I looked up at my father carefully but he______my eyes.  "Dad," I finally  whispered(低语) , tears in my eyes, "Why is it so hard for you to______me?" At last his eyes dropped to my face. "______I love you so much." he whispered back. I was struck dumb by his______. It wasn't what I had thought. But it was of course exactly what I needed to hear. I had always known that he loved me. I just hadn't understood that his vast emotion had   frightened     him and made him silent. "I love you too, Dad!" I whispered back softly. He stumbled (结结巴巴地说) over  the next few words: "I'm sorry that I'm not open. It's difficult for me, but just remember______I  love you."      

When the dance ended I excused myself to the ladies' room and during my absence______changed. When I came back, Dad sat in his chair with his body leaning forward, very pale. Everything was really too late. He was gone .   

That night all I saw was his leaning body and pale face. But it's a totally different scene that I   remember now. I remember him saying "I love you" and my saying it back. The three words ______on forever long after we are gone.
