In my memory, my dad always encouraged me to be my best self, explore the world, and believe in those who cared and loved me, which helped to make me who I am today. Besides, I’ve grown up with a pretty good model that my father always was.
One year, my father nearly lost his life. He was twenty-seven years old then. For several months, he’d been suffering from stomach pains. My dad was a former track star, so he knew how to handle pain. Convinced it was nothing serious, he just made a face until it was over whenever it flared up. My mom and dad were visiting his parents in Englewood, New Jersey when extreme pain struck my dad again. However, that time, the pain didn’t fade away although my father tried to take control of it. Meanwhile, my dad developed a high fever. My grandparents rushed him to a nearby hospital. The doctors in the emergency room were confused about his condition. My dad’s symptoms seemed consistent with appendicitis (阑尾炎), but the pain wasn’t localized to the lower part of his stomach, where the appendix (阑尾) is located. While they were debating what to do, a 33-year-old surgeon named Dr. Ibrahim, spoke up. “It must be an appendix.” Dr. Ibrahim guessed it was a rare condition and insisted that my dad should receive an operation immediately, although others were against his decision.
Dr. Ibrahim turned out to be very correct. My dad was wheeled into surgery and his appendix was removed just before it could burst and cause a deadly infection. At last, he got rid of danger.
What if my father hadn’t been in Englewood that day? What if young Dr. Ibrahim hadn’t been there to point out what the older and more experienced doctors hadn’t considered? He was in the right place at the right time, and it saved his life. Now I am a father of two children. Like my father I will never forget Dr. Ibrahim.
24. What can we know about the author’s father?
A. He set a good example for the author.
B. He was in poor health in his younger days.
C. He seldom helped the author overcome troubles.
D. He liked to learn from others to improve himself.

A. To show off his father’s achievements.
B. To prove his father’s strong will power.
C. To explain why his father always suffered pains.
D. To emphasize the importance of taking exercise.
26. Which can best replace the underlined phrase “flared up” in Paragraph 2?
A. slid quickly B. stayed for a while
C. disappeared gradually D. broke out suddenly
27. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. A terrible family travel experience.
B. The determination of the author’s father.
C. A timely operation on the author’s father.
D. The importance of learning from experience.
C
The biggest challenge faced by travelers especially those who like to have a backpacking trip is how to ensure a steady supply of clean clothes. Now, thanks to a great invention called Scrubba Wash Pack, that worry may be a thing of the past.
The portable washing machine was invented by Ash Newland in 2010, while planning to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro. Struck by the limited packing space, he got inspiration from traditional washboards to create a bag that could be used to clean clothes. Then he quitted his career as a lawyer and focused on perfecting the bag’s design. By 2012, the bag was ready for the public. It weighed only 180 grams and required very little storage space, making it perfect for anyone wishing to travel light.
Not surprisingly, the bag worth 55 dollars was in instant hit with travelers, university students and even passengers. However, Newland was not satisfied. He
still saw a disadvantage with his invention—dirty clothes had to be carried around in a separate bag! The recently introduced Scrubba Wash Pack solves that problem.
In order to make the pack active, dirty clothes are placed inside the bag along with two or three liters of water. The bag is then shut tightly to ensure all air is squeezed out and the clothes are massaged for a few minutes. After a quick wash, they are clean and ready to be dried. According to Newland, the pack can clean anything from jeans to smelly socks! What’s even more amazing is that with a capacity to hold 13-liters of water, it can be used to wash more clothes at a time.
The best part is that the 99-dollar pack that will be available for sale later this year, only weighs 300 grams and is completely foldable, making it easy to store when it’s not in use. With the Scrubba Wash Pack, wandering through foreign cities searching for a washing shop, or paying for washing machines may soon be a thing of the past!
28. What led Ash Newland to create the Scrubba Wash Pack?
A. His job requirements B. a traditional washboard
C. His interest in invention D. His personal experience
29. Why wasn’t Ash Newland satisfied with his former invention?
A. Clothes couldn’t be washed well.
B. The invention was not so convenient.
C. The bag couldn’t contain enough water.
D. The cost of the invention was very high..
30. It can be inferred that the improved Wash Pack ____________.
A. turns to be much environmentally friendlier
B. will replace the traditional washing machines
C. will be widely used by more travelers in the future
D. can encourage more people to travel a long distance
31. What is the purpose of this passage?
A. To introduce a great new invention.
B. To explain the development of backpack
C. To list some common problems for travelers
D. To compare two kinds of washing machines
D
After successfully serving their term for four years, military service men and women are given the choice to stay in the military or return to civilian life.
For some, having to readjust to civilian life is one of the most challenging assignments our returning soldiers and marines(水兵) will ever have to undertake. While people may think that readjusting should be simple, they must take into consideration all the physical and mental stress our serviceman went through.
Post-traumatic Stress Disorder(创伤后应激障碍), or PTSD, is a mental disorder that can occur following the experience or witnessing of life-threatening events such as military combat.
Most survivors of trauma return to normal given a little time. In the military, the marines are given a two-week course on how to return to civilian life.
Unfortunately, some will have stress reactions that do not go away on their own, or may even get worse over time. These individuals may develop PTSD. People who suffer from PTSD have difficulty sleeping because they are often reliving the experience through nightmares and flashbacks, and feel deserted or often stand off, and these symptoms can be severe enough and last long enough to significantly damage the person’s daily life.
Fullerton College, like most college, has its own Veteran’s(老兵) Office. Ray Bustos has been running the office for 3 years. Bustos acts as a liaison(联络) for the school and the veteran students. He makes sure the veterans returning to school get the right benefits. There are various types of financial aid for soldiers and marines. He strongly encourages the use of the Veterans Affairs website. The website is very informative and extremely helpful for veterans as well as for friends and relatives of veterans who want to learn more.
32. One purpose of the writer in writing this passage is _______.
A. to introduce some methods to cure PTSD
B. to instruct PTSD patients to return to civilian life
C. to recommend a website for veterans and people concerned
D. to give military service men and women advice on civilian life
33. What problem will some returning soldiers and marines meet with?
A. How to get rid of mental diseases. B. How to readjust to civilian life.
C. How to get along with PTSD patients. D. How to return to school for benefits.
34. Which of the following is true about Ray Bustos?
A. He is in charge of an office dealing with veteran affairs.
B. He runs Fullerton College with a veteran office.
C. He is a veteran who has just come back from a military combat
D. He provides a lot of financial aid for soldiers and marines.
35. The best title for the passage is ______.
A. PTSD: Killer of A Civilian Life B. The Last Assignment for All Military Persons
C. How to Overcome PTSD D. Ready for A Civilian Life?

The holiday season isn’t just about shopping and gifts. 36 However, holiday travel can be more expensive than the gifts. Fortunately, the following tips will help keep your travel spending under control.
l Plan ahead. The earlier you book your travel, from airfare to hotels, the easier it is to find good deals. 37 Your best prices on airfare come when you book three weeks before the plane leaves for domestic flights. For international flights, consider booking about 30 days in advance. Many experts point out that you should book travel between one month and three months out for high-traffic holidays.
l Book your air travel on cheaper days. Traveling by air on Tuesdays and Wednesdays often costs less than traveling on Fridays and Sundays. During the holidays, it’s not just about a specific day of the week. You also need to consider the days surrounding the holiday but days immediately before
and after a holiday can be expensive. One of the best ways to save is to plan your air travel on the day of the holiday. 38
l Consider traveling overnight. Red-eye flights and overnight flights often cost less than those at more convenient times. 39 Traveling overnight can help you avoid a night in the hotel, as well as save your money on travel to your destination.
l 40 You can’t bring liquids with you on the airline, but you can bring sandwiches and other snacks. When you’re on the road, you can buy food at local groceries to make your own meals. If you are staying in a hotel long-term, consider cooking your own food, especially if you have access to a microwave.
A. Bring your own food.
B. Consider affordable accommodations.
C. Traveling by plane is not the best choice.
D. Also, booking earlier can save your money.
E. For instance, traveling on Christmas Day might be a great deal.
F. A great deal of travel also takes place during this time of year.
G. Other alternatives include sleeper trains, as well as overnight ferries.
