My husband made a little two-story house that mirrored our own in color and design for our Little Free Library, while I carefully selected books from our shelves. The idea resonated (引起共鸣) with us immediately --instead of selling the books we didn't want to read, we could simply walk them to the roadside.
Fifteen or so years later, it's safe to say that thousands of books, as well as the occasional DVDs, CDs and jigsaw puzzles have been shared through our little library. Situated on a busy street just a few blocks from a subway station, our little library sees dozens, perhaps hundreds, of passers-by each day.
Many of those who use our library do not hesitate to share their love of this neighborhood resource. One gentleman regularly stops by to pick up books for a nearby retirement home. At other times, we have received cards and gifts, including chocolates and even a personalized drawing from a local artist.
Like the people who use our library, the books that come and go reflect the broad diversity of our city. Arabic, French and Russian books are staples among the dominant English-language books. I've even collected favorite books of mine in languages I don't understand, simply for the joy of adding another edition to my collection. Surprisingly, our library hasn't dealt with our book storage problem —if anything, we now have more books than ever before.
I have heard some complaints that Little Free Libraries do not always serve the purpose of building community and may compete with our public libraries and independent bookstores. This has not been our experience. We continue to buy more books than we need and we are fiercely loyal users of the public system. Our Little Free Library has raised our love of reading and has connected (联系) us to a community of book lovers in the heart of our busy neighborhood.
24. Why did the author and her husband create the Little Free Library
A. To make friends with book lovers. B. To deal with their unwanted books.
C. To prepare for used book sales. D. To make use of community resources.
25. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. The various resources of the library.
B. People's contributions to the library.
C. The friendships between library users.
D. The author's impression of her neighborhood.
26. Which of the following can account for the author's passion for the library
A. Its advantage to public libraries.
B. Its close distance to a busy street.
C. Its success in solving book storage.
D. Its reflecting city diversity through books.
27. What is the best title for the text
A. The Comfortable Reading Corner: Promoting Reading
B. The Whispering Pages: Tales from a Shared Library
C. The Little Free Library: Contributing to Closer Connection
D. The Magic Bookshelf: Account of Neighborhood Harmony
C
As the traditional festival draws near, there are many moon cakes to choose from besides ham-pled cakes. Flower-pied, especially rose-pied moon cakes are preferred a lot by visitors to Yunnan. Baked with almost the same materials-flour. eggs, cooking oil, sugar, and honey etc. why do rose pastries(糕点) enjoy a high popularity
The answer lies in the roses locally grow n in Yunnan and used for making teas and cooking. The bushes can be found with ease in many parts of China, but Yunnan-which is known as “Kingdom of Plants”-tops others in this respect. You might have noticed that 70 percent of fresh flowers traded in China have come from Yunnan province.
Among the dim sum-like snacks of Yunnan, rose cakes can be a highlight. Cakes of this kind begin to be widely sold as early as April in stores, because farmers usually harvest the fresh rose crops for orders placed by food companies. You may also find dried roses sold all the year round in big stores.
In historical records, the flower-pied cakes were first prepared by a master chef in the Qing Dynasty about 300 years ago. Sweet, fragrant, and believed to be “good for improving women beauty”, these cakes were once widely sold in Kunming and even the north of China such as Tianjin.
However, not all the rose flower is used for making cakes. The petals(花瓣) of such roses, and only the petals, are valuable in this regard, and that is mainly why they(rose cakes) are a little pricier than others. There are also records saying that rose-pied cakes were paid to the Qing Dynasty's Qian Long Emperor as a gift.
Personally, I prefer rose cakes than any others. As for ham cakes, I really don't like the taste. If you try ham cakes, it tastes quite weird, salty and sweet.
28. Why are rose-pied moon cakes so popular
A. They go well with tea.
B. They are made with flour.
C. They can improve women beauty.
D. They are made with the best roses.
29. What does the writer mean by saying “rose cakes can be a highlight”
A. Rose cakes are the most expensive.
B. Rose cakes stand out from the others.
C. Rose cakes are ordered by many companies.
D. Rose cakes are best when served with dim sum.
30. What do we know about rose-pied moon cakes
A. They are prepared by master chefs.
B. They were bought by emperors as gifts.
C. They are widely sold home and abroad.
D. They are more expensive than other cakes.
31. What is the purpose of this text
A. Tell the history of moon cakes.
B. Introduce a special kind of moon cakes.
C. Encourage readers to buy flower moon cakes.
D. Compare traditional moon cakes with rose moon cakes.
D
Are alien s trying to contact Earth Six new mysterious blasts(爆炸) of radio energy are detected from deep space. While the source of the waves remains unknown, some suggest the mysterious bursts of energy could be a sign of alien life trying to contact us. The waves were detected by researchers from Mc Gill University in Montreal.
The detection follows 11 previously recorded outbursts from the same location, called FRB121102. This is the only known repeater of fast radio bursts (FRBs). Despite there being a number of FRBs from the site, the origin of the bursts is an ongoing puzzle to researchers. But the researchers say that the repeated outbursts imply that whatever is causing the radio bursts(快速射电暴) is not a one-time event, such as a blast or crash. Instead. they say that flares(耀斑) from a young neutron star(中子星) are hopeful.
Previously when waves have been detected, astronomers have also asked SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) to take a closer look at whether they could be a message from aliens. But it is unclear whether the McGill researchers will ask SETI to help this time.
If there are any intelligent alien life forms out there, Stephen Hawking thinks we're playing a dangerous game by trying to contact them. The physicist believes if alien s discovered Earth, they would likely want to conquer and colonize our planet.
“If aliens visit us, the outcome could be much like when Columbus landed in America, which didn't turn out well for the Native Americans,” he said in an interview.
But co-founder and former director of the SETI Institute, Jill Tarter, doesn't think this will be the case. She argues any aliens who have managed to travel across the universe may be friendly and peaceful.
“The idea of a civilization which has managed to survive far longer than we have... and the fact that the technology remains an aggressive one, to me, doesn't make sense," she said.
32. Why does the author use a question in paragraph 1
A. To attract readers' attention. B. To let readers answer it.
C. To make an argument. D. To question the truth of others' ideas.
33. What is the likely cause of the radio bursts
A. The explosion of a star. B. Messages from aliens.
C. Flares from a neutron star. D. A collision between two stars.
34. Which of the following might Stephen Hawking agree with
A. We should try to find the aliens. B. We can play games with the aliens.
C. The alien s may conquer the earth. D. The aliens may land in America one day.
35. What's Jill Tarter's attitude towards contact with the aliens
A. Uncertain. B. Critical. C. Negative. D. Positive.

In a small town, there lived a young elementary school student named Timmy, whose lateness had become his worst trait(特点) in his school.
Every school morning, he struggled to get out of bed, often finding himself rushing through breakfast and forgetting important things like his homework or lunchbox. Meanwhile, his classmates would glance at the empty seat beside them, exchanging knowing looks as the clock ticked past the start of the class. When Timmy finally arrived, he would often find himself the center of attention, and his cheeks red with embarrassment as he apologized. Deep down, Timmy felt a growing sense of discomfort and shame about his habitual lateness. His teachers and classmates were concerned about the effect of his constant lateness on his studies.
One day, Timmy's class teacher, Mrs. Johnson, decided to solve the issue. She approached Timmy with a gentle smile, “Timmy, can we talk about something important ”
Timmy looked up and replied, a bit nervous, “Sure, Mrs. Johnson.”
She crouched(蹲下) down to his level, speaking softly but seriously and sincerely, “I've noticed you've been late for class quite often. Do you know being on time is very important ”
Timmy lowered his head and said, “Yes, but...”
Mrs. Johnson continued, “Being on time helps you not miss out on your lessons. It's also about respect for your classmates and me. When you're late, it can disrupt(打乱) the whole class. We all miss you when you're not here on time.”
Timmy nodded and said, a look of understanding on his face, “I didn't realize it was affecting everyone. I'll try to be better, Mrs. Johnson. But I have difficulty waking up and getting out of bed. Every morning when my alarm clock sounded, I hit the snooze(小睡) button, just 10 more minutes. Then 10 minutes later, another 10 minutes. That's why I am always late for school.”
"Don't worry. We're all here to help you," Mrs. Johnson said, offering a comforting smile.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为 150 左右:
