One ambitious high school student knew exactly how to show his family that he got accepted into his dream college—by surprising them on Christmas Day.
Barrington Lincoln, class president at Lutheran High School North in Ferguson, got accepted into Morehouse College in Atlanta back on Dec. 15. But for months, he knew he wanted to make the news known in a big way to his mother and aunt, Lincoln told ABC News. “I thought of the surprise in October,” he said, adding that once he got accepted he would purchase two school T-shirts from Morehouse’s online store.
On Christmas Day, in a now video on Twitter, Lincoln, 17, gifted his mom Lisa McDonald and his aunt Shirley Gray the T-shirts with the school’s name on it. When the two sisters opened the gifts, they had no idea what they meant.
In the video, Lincoln nudges (用肘轻推) his family, “You know what that means right? I got in!” While McDonald falls heavily on the couch in delight, Gray asks, “You’ve been holding out on us?”
“I didn’t expect anything like that,” McDonald told ABC News. “It’s so satisfying to see him get the return on his studying.” “He always wanted to be the first in line and help everybody stay in line,” his mother added.
McDonald said it’s especially sweet since she had to work an extra job to afford his private school after his father, a former Marine, passed away in 2015. Lincoln was only 15.
“All kids need to have quality education,” the mother added. “I am putting an investment (投资) in his future.”
24. What did Lincoln choose two T-shirts for his mother and aunt mainly for?
A. To show he loves them forever. B. To give them a Christmas gift.
C. To tell them his academic success. D. To show he had grown up already.
25. How did Lincoln’s mother and aunt feel when they saw his presents?
A. Puzzled. B. Satisfied. C. Disappointed. D. Embarrassed.
26. Which of the following can replace the underlined sentence “You’ve been holding out on us”？
A. You’ve been telling a lie to the two of us. B. You’ve been longing to tell us the truth.
C. You’ve been playing a joke with two of us. D. You’ve been keeping it a secret from us.
27. What can we infer from the text?
A. Lincoln’s parents could hardly afford his education.
B. Lincoln’s mother felt her efforts paid off at last.
C. Lincoln bought the T-shirts in the local supermarket.
D. The video had been popular before December 15.
C
Sometimes people call each other “scaredcat”. But have you ever thought about this expression? When a cat is frightened, its heart starts beating faster，its muscles get tense and there are changes in the chemicals in its bloodstream. Although the cat doesn't realize this, its body is getting ready for action. If the danger continues, the animal will do one of two things. It will protect itself, or it will run away as fast as it can.
Something like this also happens to people. When we are excited, angry or scared by other feelings，our bodies go through many physical changes. Our hearts beat faster，and our muscles get tense. All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react. We, too, get ready to defend ourselves or run.
Human beings, however, have a problem that animals never face. If we give way to our feelings and let them take over, we can get into trouble. Have you ever said something in anger or hit
somebody and regretted it later? Have you ever shouted at a teacher, told somebody you were lonely, or said you were in love, and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut？It isn't always clever to express your feelings freely.
Does this mean that it's smarter to always hide our feelings？No！If you keep feelings of anger, sadness hidden away or bottled up inside, your body stays tense. Physical illness can develop, and you can feel disturbed badly inside. It can actually be bad for your health. It isn't good to keep pleasant feelings inside either; all feelings need to be expressed.
Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside don't just go away. It's as if you bought some bananas and put them in a cupboard. You might not be able to see them, but before long you'd smell them. And if you opened the cupboard, chances are that you'd see little fruit flies flying all over them. They are bad.
You can try to treat feelings as if they were bananas in the cupboard. You can hide them and you can pretend they don't exist, but they'll still be around. And at last you'll have to deal with them, just like those bananas.
28．When people and animals are aroused by fear，________.
A．they may get ready to attack or run away
B．their muscles get neither tense nor relaxed
C．their hearts beat either faster or slower
D．they feel very regretful immediately
29．Why do human beings get into trouble according to the passage?
A．They are usually not as alert as animals.
B．They always do something wrong to other people.
C．They sometimes can't control their feelings.
D．They don't pay attention to their physical changes.
30．What can we infer from the passage?
A．Feelings will gradually disappear when you hold them in.
B．Bananas stay fresh longer when they are in a cupboard.
C．Holding in your feelings may lead to unpleasant results.
D．It's good for your health to keep pleasant feelings inside.
31．What is the purpose of this passage?
A．To tell us that people's feelings are like bananas in a cupboard.
B．To give us some advice on how to express our feelings.
C．To prove that it isn't always wise to express our feelings freely.
D．To help us deal with feelings in a wise and proper way.
D
The Indian government may use 3D paintings as virtual speed breakers（减速带）on major highways and roads, in order to check speeding and careless driving, and finally make its deadly roads a little safer. "We are trying out 3D paintings used as virtual speed breakers to avoid unnecessary requirements of speed breakers," India's transport minister Nitin Gadkari wrote.
The optical illusions(视觉错觉) are supposed to encourage drivers to slow down automatically. Earlier, India had ordered the removal of all speed breakers from highways, which are considered to be a safety hazard for high-speed vehicles. India has the highest number of road accident deaths in the world. According to the World Health Organisation, over 200,000 people are killed by road accidents.
The use of optical illusions as speed breakers was first pioneered in the American city of Philadelphia in 2008, as part of a campaign against speeding motorists. The technique has also been tried out in China to create floating 3D crossings. In India, cities such as Ahmedabad and Chennai have already experimented with 3D zebra crossings in the last one year. In Ahmedabad for instance, a mother and her daughter, both artists, have painted 3D crosswalks in the first few months of 2016. The artists say their motto is "to increase the attention of drivers", and that the concept has been successfully tested in accident-prone zones on a highway.
However, critics argue that once drivers know that these speed breakers are visual illusions,
they may ignore them. Others also point out that India's decision does not consider the safety of a large number of pedestrians. In the end, the new policy may be just one step towards improving road safety.
32. Why are 3D paintings used on main highways and roads?
A. To attract the attention of tourists. B. To show the advanced technology.
C. To reduce the rate of traffic accidents. D. To make the surroundings more beautiful.
33. What can we learn from Paragraph 3 and 4?
A. The idea tested in Ahmedabad recently has been a failure.
B. The new policy of 3D zebra crossings must be carried out smoothly.
C. The use of optical illusions as speed breakers is controversial in India.
D. Philadelphia, the U.S.A is the second place to use virtual speed breakers in the world.
34. What’s the author’s attitude towards 3D zebra crossings?
A. Subjective. B. Objective. C. Supportive. D. Critical.
35. What do we know about 3D zebra crossings from the passage?
A. They can vastly lower the death rate in India.
B. They are designed to increase drivers’ attention.
C. They are welcomed by both drivers and pedestrians.
D. They have been widely used in India so far.

Fight hard for books with a movie version. And make sure it’s a short movie you can easily watch while sleeping on the couch. When someone complains that the book you want to read is also a movie –act surprised.

参考范文
Dear Sir or Madam,
My name is Li Hua. I’m writing this letter to tell you my terrible flight experience on BA793 on August 3rd. 2018.
The first trouble started when the flight was listed as Delayed . For what seemed an eternity we were stuck at the airport and no one came to offer us any explanation. Seven hours later, when all the passengers finally got on board, we were told that we had to keep on waiting for another hour due to the bad weather! If we had been informed earlier, we would have chosen to stay in the waiting room. What was worse, upon my arrival, I found my check-in suitcase which was newly bought out of shape, and its handle was broken !
I’m looking forward to an explanation about this unpleasant experience and I strongly suggest that your company do something to provide quality service to the fliers.
Sincerely
Li Hua
