A 15-year-old boy from a poor village in India’s Karnataka state gave a special gift to his mother a few weeks before Mother’s Day.
Pawan Kumar,from Shettisara village,dug a well (井) because he didn’t want his mother to walk half a kilometer to the village well to fetch water for household use.
Kumar decided to dig the well in his backyard two months ago. Kumar said, “I had my holidays and I thought I could use the time to dig a well for my mother, who spent at least two hours to get water every day.” It took him around six weeks to dig the 45-feet deep well.
In fact, Kumar’s mother and friends didn’t want him to take up the tough task, but Kumar didn’t budge .He even fractured (使骨折)his hand in the process, and then he had to get help from two workers.
“I was a little disappointed when I found no water even after digging for over six weeks. Besides, I even fractured my hand. I called two professional well diggers, who dug another 10 feet,” he said. They finally found water after that. Since then, the villagers have started calling him “Baahubali” (named after the hero in a Tamil movie of the same name).
In order to draw water easily, Kumar tied a pulley(滑轮)over the well. People from nearby villages can also receive supply of water from this well now.
24. Why did Kumar dig the well?
A. To water his garden. B. To help his mother.
C. To clean his yard. D. To help the villagers.

Big Ben is the world’s most popular clock. Millions of tourists visit the clock tower each year. Every hour on the hour, the famous bells ring. But starting in 2017, it will be under major repairs, and for some of that time, its bells won’t ring. Work like this hasn’t been done on it in more than 30 years.
“In order to keep the clock ticking (发出滴答声), we must take time to examine and repair it,” says Steve Jaggs, who oversees Big Ben. “This project will enable us to give one of Britain’s most famous landmarks the care it badly needs.”
Big Ben actually is the name of the main bell inside the clock. But the entire clock tower has come to be known by that name. People have been setting their watches to Big Ben since the bell was built in 1859 . It was an addition to the Palace of Westminster ,which was rebuilt after a big fire in 1834. The last major repair of the tower took place from 1983 to 1985.
Big Ben is again showing its age. Many of the parts in the clock need repairs. The tower itself has problems , too. The repairs will also include updating (更新) the tower so that it meets current fire-safety requirement and installing(安装) an elevator. In total, the project will cost about $42 million.
The project will take about three years, during which there will be no tours of the tower. The clock will be stopped while its hands and other parts are being fixed,and it’ll be silent for three months during the repair.
“Big Ben is a symbol of the UK,” says Tom Brake, an office worker. “We have a responsibility to make sure that it’s in a good condition for future generations (几代人) to enjoy, just as our ancestors(祖先) protect their masterpiece well for us to enjoy.”
28. What has happened to Big Ben since it was completed?
A. It has gone through a big fire
B. It has kept time for over 180 years.
C. It has once experienced major repairs.
D. It has become the most famous building in London.
29. Which of the following doesn’t belong to the repairs this time?
A. Updating the tower. B. Installing an elevator.
C. Installing a new clock . D. Fixing the clock’s parts.
30. How long won’t tourists hear Big Ben?
A. For two months B. For three months .
C. For two years . D. For three years.
31. What does Tom Brake want to say about Big Ben in the last paragraph?
A. Its immediate repair is a must.
B. Its repair will take generations to complete.
C. We should learn from the ancestors to repair it.
D. We should repair it instead of the future generations.
D
The Airbus A380 is the largest passenger plane that has ever been built. It can carry more passengers and things than any other airplane and it uses less fuel and makes less noise. Its wings span about 80 meters and it has a length of 73 meters.
When filled with passengers, the A380 weighs over 500,000 kilograms. The A380 can fly about 13,000 kilometers non-stop.
The Boeing 747, which could carry 416 passengers, once was the biggest plane in the world. Plane makers have used special materials to keep the plane light. They say that the engines(引擎) are very low in noise—they produce about half the sound of other engines.
In the early 1990s, Airbus started to design a plane that could compete with Boeing’s 747. In 2000, the first airlines ordered the new plane and in January, 2005, the first Airbus A380 was finished. The new Airbus made its first flight with Sinagpore Airlines. It flew from Singapore to Sydney on October 25, 2007 . Over 6,000 people worked on the project and up to now 14 airlines have already ordered the A380.
However, there are some problems that such a big plane may cause. Are airports big enough for the plane to take off and land or can airlines sell enough tickets to fill the plane? Testing has shown that the A380 does not need longer runways. But airports may have problems getting people on and off the huge planes. Waiting lines may be very long and passengers may spend a very long time looking for their baggage(行李).
32. The Airbus A380 is most well-known for its ____.
A. high speed B. large size C. low noise D. special materials
33. Which of the following is TRUE about the A380?
A. It has 416 seats in total. B. It has a weight of over 50 tons.
C.It has a length of over 70 meters. D. It can fly around the globe non-stop.
34. The author mentions the Boeing 747 in order to ____.
A . make a comparison B. give an example
C. describe a process D. provide more details
35. Passengers of the A380 may have trouble in _____.
A. booking a ticket B. getting on the plane
C. moving about on the plane D. spending too long on the runways
第二节:根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项是多余选项。(每小题2.5分)
An apology(道歉) tells someone that we’re sorry for the hurt we caused—even if we didn’t do it on purpose.
Why apologize?
Apologies are one of the tools we use to build good friendships and relationships. When you say “I’m sorry”(and really mean it), it’s because you probably feel bad that something you did or said hurt another person. 36 You’re also saying that you respect the other person and you care about his or her feelings. After apologizing, you might feel a little better. 37 When you apologize in a caring way, you can feel good because you are trying to make things right again.
Does apologizing fix everything?
38 Other times ,it might take a while for someone to get past feeling upset. You may need to give the other person some time. Even after you say you’re sorry,
you might still feel bad about what you said or did. 39 You are making up your mind to do better.
What if you’ve been hurt?
When someone apologizes to you, you may welcome it. But if a person keeps hurting you and apologizing without making an effort to change, you may not want to make friends with him . 40 It’s polite to accept an apology, but anything more is up to you !
A. Saying you’re sorry is more than just words.
B. The other person will probably feel better, too.
C. It’s always easy to get along with other people.
D. Sometimes a heartfelt “I’m sorry”fixes everything right away.
E. Everyone needs to apologize when they do something wrong.
F. But you can feel good about apologizing or fixing the mistake.
G. Just because someone apologizes, it doesn’t mean you have to be friends.
