26、 The Olympic Games are the greatest festival of sport in the world. Every four years, a hundred or more countries send their best sportsmen to compete for the highest honors of the sport. As many as 6000 people take part in over 20 sports. For the winners, there are gold medals and glory. But there is honor, too, for all who compete, win or lose. That is the spirit of the Olympics — to take part is what matters.
The Olympic Games always start in bright color and action. The teams of all the nations parade in the opening ceremony and march round the track. The custom is for the Greek team to march in first. For it was in Greece that the Olympics began. The team of the country where the Games are being held — the host country — marches in last.
The runner with the Olympic torch then enters the stadium and lights the flame. A sportsman from the host country takes the Olympic oath on behalf of all the competitors. The judges and officials also take an oath. After the sportsmen march out of the stadium, the host country puts on a wonderful display.
The competition begins the next day. There are usually more than twenty sports in the Games. The rule is that there must be at least fifteen. The main events are in track and field, but it is a few days before these sports start. Each day the competitors take part in a different sport — riding, shooting, swimming, and cross-country running. Points are gained for each event. Medals are awarded for the individual winners and for national teams.
More and more women are taking part in the games. They first competed in 1900, in tennis and golf, which are no longer held in the Olympics. Women’s swimming events were introduced in 1912, but it was not until 1928 that there were any track and field events for women. Now, they compete in all but half a dozen of the sports. In horse riding, shooting, and boat racing, they may compete in the same events as the men.
【1】The spirit of the Olympics is to _________.
A.win a gold medal B.be equal
C.gain glory D.participate
【2】From the passage, we can learn that _________.
A.the first team to march in the opening ceremony is the most important one
B.a sportsman represents all the athletes to take an oath after a wonderful display
C.the track and field events do not start until a few days after the Olympics begin
D.women were allowed to take part in track and field events in 1912

C.Riding D.Swimming
【4】Which is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A.Olympic Spirit.

28、 I study English literature at university and have always been proud of Britain’s literary heritage. Some British authors that you may have heard of are Charles Dickens and Jane Austen. These writers are famous all over the world because their books have been translated into many different languages. In the UK, their novels are celebrated as some of the best that have ever been written. We say that these novels are “classic” because they are still read and enjoyed years after their publication.
I read classic novels not only because they are part of my university lessons but also because I enjoy them. They can teach you a lot about how people used to live and what society was like in the past. Novels like Hard Times by Charles Dickens remind us of the poverty in London during the Industrial Revolution while Jane Austen’s fiction (小说) shows us what family life was like in the 18th century.
Classic novels usually have memorable stories and interesting characters. One of my favourite books is Charles Dickens’ Great Expectations. It is about a boy called Pip who suddenly receives a lot of money from a mysterious supporter. As he grows up, his character changes: he becomes quite selfish and mean. Another important character is Miss Havisham. When she was young, her fiancé ran away on their wedding day. She lives in a dark house and still wears her wedding dress. She is a fascinating (迷人的) character, both sad and easy to be frightened.
Reading classic novels enriches my knowledge and life experience. And it has become part of my life.
【1】Classic novels are the ones __________.
A.that are taught at universities. B.that have stood the test of time.
C.that are written by famous authors. D.That are translated into many languages.
【2】In Paragraph 2, the author mentions Hard Times _____?
A.to introduce the university lessons.
B.to remind people of the poverty in London.
C.to let people know about what family life was like.
D.to prove classic novels help people know the past.
【3】What can we know about the character Miss Havisham?
A.She is selfish and mean. B.She lives an unhappy life.
C.She loves wedding dresses most. D.She becomes rich with others’ support.
【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Why I like classic novels B.Why some novels are classic
C.How to read classic novels D.What are classic novels
29、How to study smarter
You may be putting in hours of studying, but that doesn't mean that you understand and master the material.Learning to study smarter and more effectively will mean shorter and more effective study sessions, and finally, better grades!
Study in breaks.
【1】.To be an effective learner, you will need to take regular breaks as you work.Try studying in 30 minutes, and taking a break for 5-10 minutes.Do something relaxing during your break that doesn't take too much attention, for example, walking.
【2】.
Use flash cards, mock (模拟) quizzes, and practice exams to more effectively learn information.Taking a test helps you learn information better than simply re-reading the information.【3】You can also create, or ask your teacher for, a mock quiz or practice exam.
Use as many senses as possible.
Some people get information better if different senses are used in the study.One way to use different senses while you are studying is by reading your notes out loud as you rewrite them.【4】.
Play a memory game.
Try using a song, maps, or games to help you remember information.For example, if you need to remember the notes of the treble scale(高音音阶), EGBDF, you can make the letters a set of words or a phrase that is easy to remember, like, "every good boy does fine.”However, memory games don't work for everyone.【5】.
A.Check yourself.
B.Take more exercise.
C.Try creating flash cards to quiz yourself.
D Study for a short period of time may not make students get enough information.

31、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
NASA is on a journey to Mars, with a goal of sending humans to the Red Planet in the 2030s. That journey is already well under way.
For decades, the agency and its partners have sent orbiters, landers and rovers（探测器）, 【1】 increasing our knowledge about the Red Planet and paving the way for future human explorers. The Curiosity rover has gathered radiation data to help us protect future astronauts, and the upcoming Mars 2020 rover will study the 【2】 of Martian resources, including oxygen.
Building on the robotic legacy（遗产）, the human exploration of Mars crosses three thresholds（门槛）, each with 【3】 challenges as humans move farther from Earth: Earth Reliant, the Proving Ground, and Earth Independent.
Earth Reliant explorations is 【4】 on research aboard the International Space Station. The orbiting microgravity laboratory serves as a world - class test bed for the technologies and communications systems needed for human missions to deep space. Astronauts are learning about what it takes to live and work in space for long periods of time, improving our understanding of how the body changes in space and how to protect astronauts' health.
Next, we move into the Proving Ground, 【5】 a series of missions near the moon called “cislunar space” to test the capabilities we will need to live and work at Mars. Astronauts on the space station are only hours away from Earth, but the proving ground is days away, a(n) 【6】 stepping stone to a Mars mission, which will be months away from home.
Also in the 2020s, we’ll send astronauts on a year-long mission into this deep space proving ground, confirming habitation and testing our 【7】 for Mars.
Finally, we become Earth Independent, building on the knowledge 【8】 on the space station and in deep space to send humans to low-Mars orbit in the early 2030s.
This phase will also test the entry, descent（降落）and landing techniques needed to get to the Martin surface and study what's needed for in-situ resource utilization or "living off the land". NASA is already studying the 【9】 "Exploration Zones" on Mars that would offer compelling science research and provide resources our astronauts can use.
There are challenges to 【10】 Mars, but we know they are solvable. We are well on our way to getting there, landing there, and living there.
