B
Of course,she wasn’t really my aunt and,out of fear,I never called her that to her face.I only referred to her as “My Aunt Fannie” because the name always made my father laugh quietly and gave my mother cause to look strictly at both of us—at me for being disrespectful to my elder and at my father for encouraging my bad behavior.I enjoyed both reactions so I looked for every opportunity to work the name into as many conversations as possible.
As a young woman,my mother had worked in the kitchen of a large Victorian farmhouse.During those years my mother helped Aunt Fannie make the best blueberry jam ever tasted by anyone in Glenfield. She was well-known for her jam and for never sharing the recipe with others.Even though my mother knew the recipe by heart,as
long as Aunt Fannie was alive,she never made the jam without Aunt Fannie in our kitchen to direct the process and preserved the secret.
Each August,my mother would prepare me for Aunt Fannie’s visit.One year,after I had helped with the jam process,Aunt Fannie gave me a coin and then made me promise t hat I would never spend it.“Hold onto this coin,” she said,“and someday you will be rich.I still have my very first coin,given to me by my grandmother.” So I kept the coin in a small box and waited to become rich.
I now have the blueberry jam recipe and th e coin from Aunt Fannie.In people’s eyes Aunt Fannie’s success resulted from that secret recipe.But to me,it was just a common recipe.Neither have significantly made me become a rich person,but I keep them as reminders to hold onto the valuable things in life.Money can make you feel rich for a while,but it is the relationships and the memories of time spent with friends and family that truly leave you wealthy.And that is a fortune that anyone can build.
24.Why did the author always use the name “My Aunt Fannie” in conversations?
A.She was frightened of Aunt Fannie.
B.She liked Aunt Fannie’s recipe.

D.was the exact one that Aunt Fannie had received from her grandfather

B.have lasting love and friendship
C.share our wealth with others
D.have good fortune and money

Cigarette smoking is injurious to health—everyone knows that.Well,till a few decades ago,people were unaware that smoking could cause lung and heart diseases and cigarette packs never had a warning on them,like they do now.
In recent years,research has shown that smoking is dangerous and it has now been made compulsory for all cigarette manufacturers to have a warning printed on the cover.It states that “cigarette smoking is injurious to health.”
However,cigarette manufacturers do not want people to stop buying their product by reading the warning.So,they have found a convenient way of dealing with the problem.They print the warning in such small letters that one can barely read them.
While European health authorities are now insisting that the size of the letters used in these health warnings should be increased,one British engineering firm, Molins, which supplies machines to make cigarettes,has gone a step ahead.The company wants to patent a talking cigarette packet that recites a health warning every time you open it.
The talking packet uses a technology similar to the one used in musical cards.A stiff plastic strip is attached to the lid of the cigarette packet.When the packet is opened,the strip comes into contact with a tiny battery cell (the kind used in watches),which is wired to a small speaker on the base of the packet.This triggers a playback of the health warning.
Will cigarette manufacturers choose these talking packets?
Anti-smoking organizations are thrilled with the invention and are insisting that all tobacco manufacturers should use these packs.However,without government administration,cigarette manufacturers will pay no attention to the request and continue to use tiny-lettered health warnings on their packets.
28.We learn from the first paragraph that .
A.people knew the harm of smoking long ago
B.cigarette packs have never changed in history
C.cigarette packs used to have no warning on them
D.cigarette packs always carry a warning on them
29. Cigarette manufacturers print the warning in small letters to .
A.make it easy to be unnoticed
B.meet the requirement of law
C.cut down their cost
D.catch users’ attention
30 .Every time a talking cigarette packet is opened,people can .
A.hear a piece of music
B.see the health warning in large letters
C.remember the health warning
D.hear the health warning being read
31. The last paragraph suggests that .
A.talking packets can be put into use soon
B.talking packets haven’t been put into use
C.cigarette manufacturers are forced to use talking packets now
D.talking packets are also welcomed by cigarette manufacturers
D
Safely navigating from point A to point B can be a particularly difficult challenge for people who are blind.Even when sweeping a long cane back and forth across their path as they’re walking,blind people easily can miss objects that might trigger a fall.Now,a young inventor has designed an electronic device to remind people of such obstacles.
Among the biggest trip danger for blind people are objects between 50 centimeters (about 20 inches)and 1 meter(about 39 inches)above the floor.Such knee-high to waist-high objects include coffee tables,bed frames and other such
furniture with overhanging edges,notes Raghav Ganesh,a 12-year-old from San Jose,Calif.He attends Joaquin Miller Middle School.
To prevent falls,Raghav decided to add electronic “eyes” to the red-and-white cane that many blind people use.To identify what’s ahead,cane users typically tap the ground and sweep their stick back and f orth.But Raghav’s cane lets people sense objects well beyond a walking stick’s reach.A small computer acts as the device’s brain.It processes information gathered by sensors.Then,it relays signals to a small motor on the cane.The motor vibrates (振动) as soo n as the cane’s electronic eyes detect a potential obstacle.
Each sensor is about half the size of a postage stamp.Together,the cane’s electronic eyes and brain weigh about 200 grams (7 ounces).They are fitted in a small box about twice the size of a deck of cards.The small motor that vibrates is about the size of a coin and the weight of a similar-sized kitchen magnet.It is fitted on the cane’s handle,right where the user grips the cane.
Raghav’s invention cost about $ 55 to make,so it’s very affordable.It’s also easy to use.The student recruited about 20 people from the Santa Clara Valley Blind Center to test his device.The non-profit organization provides services for blind people in Raghav’s hometown.Some volunteers who tried the enhanced cane were almos t or completely blind.Still,they learned to use the seeing-eye cane in as little as 10 minutes,Raghav says.
32.How does the author introduce the topic of the passage?
A.By describing the problem with the blind.
B.By making a comparison.
C.By describing how the blind find their way.
D.By mentioning the obstacles on the road.
33. The blind using the cane will know there is an obstacle ahead if .
A.it gives a loud noise
B.the motor on it vibrates
C.there is a flashing light
D.it stops working
34. The last paragraph is written to tell us.
A.Raghav’s invention needs further improvement
B.Raghav’s invention is widely used
C.Raghav’s invention is still being tested
D.Raghav’s invention is affordable and easy to use
35. Which of the following could be the best title for the passage?
A.The Story of a Young Inventor
B.Difficulties Facing the Blind
C.A Cane That Can See
D.Making Life Easier for the Blind

Television is everywhere around us.Yet it is great for learning English.The pictures make it easier to understand than radio because you can see who’s talking,and get a better idea of what people mean.Just watch their “body language”! Watch programs that you find enjoyable and entertaining.36.
Here’s the guide to learning as much as possible while watching English television:
37.Learning English should be fun —not something that you have to force yourself to do.If you have a passion for football,watch matches or the sports news.
Keep a notebook near to your television.38.This is especially useful.You can look for programs with sub-titles in your own language.
Try to watch English television regularly.Even if you can only watch 15 minutes a day,you’ll be amazed how much you learn.
Don’t worry if you don’t understand everything.English television is normally aimed at native English speakers.39.If the programs that you’re watching are full of unknown words,just concentrate on understanding the general meaning.
Keep a note of television programs and presenters that you find easy to understand and try to watch them regularly.40.Soon you will impress your friends with your English skills.
A.Don’t watch the programs too easy for you.
B.Better watch programs that you find interesting.
C.Programs often include many difficult words.
D.English learning has little to do with watching TV.
E.Whatever you watch will help you improve your English.
F.Doing this will increase your confidence in learning English.
G.You can take down any new words or expressions that you hear.

I do long for a pleasant chat with you.
It is much to my regret that I missed the chance of a happy get-together.Once again,please accept my sincere apology.。
