24、 A wise man was walking from one town to another with a few of his followers, and they happened to pass a lake. So they stopped there to rest for a while, and the wise man said to one of his followers, “Could you please get me some water from the lake? The follower walked to the lake. Some people were washing clothes in the water, and right at that moment, several carts started crossing the lake. As a result, the water became very muddy at once.
Then the follower went back. He told the wise man that the water was very muddy and not fit to drink. After they had rested for about half an hour, the wise man again asked the same follower to go back to the lake and get him some water to drink. And the follower went to the lake. This time he found that all the mud had gone down to the bottom. The water in the lake was very clear and looked fit to drink. So he filled his water bottle and took it to the wise man.
The wise man took the water bottle and drank then looked up at the follower. “See what you did to make the water clean ?” he said, “You let it be for a while and the mud settled down on its own, so that you could get some clear drinking water. Your mind can also be like that lake when it is disturbed by something. If you just let it be and give it a little time, it will most likely settle down on its own without you having to put in any effort at all to calm it.”

25、One of the world’s biggest sources of pollution is in the walls of your home-bricks(砖). According to the United Nations Environment Program, nearly 40 percent of human-made carbon emissions(碳排放) come from building materials. What if nature could help us make bricks in a cleaner way?
In fact, scientists are working on making bricks out of mushrooms. For example, Professor Han Weston and his team at Utrecht University, the Netherlands, are trying mush-room bricks. They combine mushrooms with farming waste, such as straw according to science magazine Horizon.
The mushrooms grow on the straw for about two weeks. Then they can be made into different materials. “If we press it, we can get a material like hardboard,” Weston said.
Making mushroom bricks causes much less CO2 than making materials like cement(水泥). They are also biodegradable(可生物降解的), so we don’t have to worry about them polluting our land when they’re left behind. Mushroom materials can also self-repair—if you accidentally damage your house, just re-grow the mushrooms to repair it. NASA scientists even want to use it to “grow” houses on the moon or Mars. This way, they don’t need to bring heavy building materials aboard spaceships.
There’s still a lot of research to be done of course. “It’s very early days to start saying your house will be all made of mushrooms,” said researcher Philip King. “Still, we need to make progress and the future of mushroom materials looks bright.”
【1】What’s special about making bricks from mushrooms?
A.It’s easy to make.
B.It’s very cheap.
C.It’s friendly to our earth.
D.It’s too hard to make.
【2】Which of the following is true about mushroom materials?
A.They can grow on their own.
B.They can be used on the moon.
C.They do harm to the environment.
D.They are popular in today’s building.
【3】What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.A brick.
B.A mushroom.
C.A tree.
D.A house.
【4】What can we infer from last paragraph?
A.Houses can be made of mushroom materials soon.
B.There is little hope to build a mushroom house.
C.Further research should be done to mushroom materials.
D.Progress should be made to make our houses brighter.

27、 My teenage son Karl became withdrawn after his father died. As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him. But the more I tried, the more he pulled away. When his report card arrived during his junior year, it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six falling grades for the year. In this case he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged (乞求) him. Nothing worked.
One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and begged for help. “Please God, I can’t do anything more for my son. I’m at the end of my rope. I’m giving the whole thing up to you.”
I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karl’s absences.” Before he could say another word, I choked (哽咽) up and all my disappointment (失望) and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son but I just don’t know what to do. I’ve tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It’s out of my hands.” For a moment there was silence on the other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, “Thank you for your time.” and hung up.
Karl’s next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades. Finally, he was even on the list of the best students at school. In his fourth year, I attended a parent-teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were surprised at the way he had turned himself around.
After the meeting, Karl said, “Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?” I nodded. “That was me. I thought I’d play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. That’s when I knew I had to make you proud.”
