The idea that my father thought I was old enough to help him in his business(生意) made me feel proud and excited. From sunrise to sunset, my father, my younger brother and I worked in the large garden, in a rich part of Atlanta, Georgia. By the end of the day I was too tired to say a word but I felt good. This was my first time to help my father in his business. I got for my work that day.

One day, my father found some leaves I had missed and pulled me aside. "Take away these leaves!" said seriously, "and don't make me have to tell you to do it again." The message was clear. Today I value it, which my father gave to me that day. It will always be helpful to impress (给……留下印象)the person you are working for.

24、Although air is all around us, we can’t see it. We can feel it and breathe it. The air that surrounds the Earth is called the atmosphere (大气层) and it is made up mostly of two gases nitrogen and oxygen. Gravity pulls on the gasses and keeps the atmosphere close to the Earth’s surface. This is good, because we need oxygen in order to live.

There are many layers in the atmosphere. Because of gravity’s pull, most of the air is in the bottom layer. When scientists talk about the atmosphere, they often use the word altitude. They measure altitude from sea level, which is the place where the land and sea are at the same level. There is a lot of oxygen at sea level.

As the altitude increases, the atmosphere has less gas. This means there is less oxygen to breathe. That’s why it is harder to breathe at the top of a mountain than it is at sea level.

【1】With the help of ________ , we have enough oxygen to live with.

A．altitude

B．gravity

C．nitrogen

D．layers

【2】Which of the following is true about “altitude”?

25、Fill in the blanks with proper words.（在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺。每空格限填一词，首字母已给出。）

I recently heard a story about a famous scientist. Because of his great achievements, he was thought to be more creative than the average person. When he was asked w【1】 he was able to do this, he gave the answer. It all came from an e【2】 with his mother when he was about two years old. “I was trying to get a bottle of milk from the fridge when I lost the bottle and it fell, spilling the milk all over the floor—a sea of milk! I was f【3】 and I didn’t know what to do!” he said.

His mother heard the noise and got into the kitchen. “I was considering how to e【4】 all this to her,” he said. Instead of punishing(惩罚)him, she said, “Robert, what a great mess you have made! I have never seen such a huge sea of milk before! Well, since the milk has a【5】 been spilled, would you like to play in the milk for a while? We can clean it up after that.”

Indeed, he did so. After a few minutes, his mother said, “You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, finally you have to clean it up.” He used a sponge(海绵)and together they cleaned up the spilled milk.

His mother then said, “You know, we failed in how to successfully carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands just now. Let’s go out in the yard and fill the bottle with water to see if you can f【6】 a way to carry it.” Then the little boy learned that if he grasped the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could carry it w【7】 dropping it.

What a wonderful lesson!
