During the 19th century, scientists found that when certain parts of the brain of a person were hurt, he would lose the power of doing certain things. And so people thought that each part of the brain does a different job. But modern research discovered that this is not so, for it is not easy to show exactly what each part of the brain does.
In the past fifty years there has been a great increase in the amount of research done on the brain. Scientists have found out the way the brain works is not so simple as people in general may think. Chemists tell us that about 100 000 chemical changes take place in the brain every second. Some recent researches also suggest that we can remember everything that happens to us. We may not be able to think of the thing that happens to us. We may not be able to think of the things we have heard and seen, but it is kept there in the storehouse of the human mind. Earlier scientists thought that the power of one’s brain got weaker and weaker as one grows older. But it is now thought that that is not true. As long as the brain is given plenty of exercise, it keeps its power. It has been proved that an old person who has always been active in the mind has a quicker mind than a young person who has only done physical work without using much of his brain.
26. In the 19th century, scientists found that a person would lose the power to do certain things
_________.
A. when he got weaker in health
B. if certain parts of his brain were hurt
C. after he did a quite different job
D. when he grew older

A. what each part of the brain is doing
B. how many chemical changes take place in the brain each second
C. whether each part of the brain does the same job
D. which part of the brain is the most important
28. It has been found that one’s brain usua lly works________.
A. faster when he is old
B. a little now and a little then
C. in a very simple way
D. without any rest all day long

Sunday, 6th July 2008 had finally arrived and we were on our way to the London Eye
The journey didn't take very long and we soon reached Victoria. In no time we were stepping onto the moving Pod which was quite scary. Slowly, the Pod reached the top and then suddenly without warning it took off.
At first, it went over and under Tower Bridge. People started going crazy sounding their horns(喇叭) at us. Next, it rushed off swiftly and went flying around the “gherkin” about 600 times. We all got quite dizzy and dropped to the floor. Just as we were getting up it immediately flew into the doors of St Paul's Cathedral with a loud bang！The building shook and the Pod skated across the Millennium Bridge like a train on a railway track and banged into the Tate Modern.
Next, it lifted up and flew over to Big Ben's clock. We could hear the “Tick Tock” and then thre e very loud bangs！We had to cover our ears and hold on tight at the same time which was difficult because we were moving again, this time we were heading for the Tower of London. As we landed on the grass we saw a Beefeater looking at us and shouting, “Can't you read, it says keep off the grass！”
Suddenly, the Pod was off again, and heading towards Canary Wharf. We were balancing on top of its bright red flashing light. We tried to stand still but couldn't because the Pod was rocking from side to side. I can just imagine the Press reporting on this adventure “BEWARE out of control POD on sightseeing Tour of London！”
“Oh look what's happening now, ” I said to Gloria. “The Pod is flying back to the London Eye.”
What a relief, we landed safely; the Pod seemed to be quite still now. I tried to stand up straight, the doors opened and my friends and I stepped out of the moving Pod as quickly as we could.
29. From the passage, we can infer that Pod is a special kind of______.

B. ①→②→③→④→⑥→⑤→⑧→⑦→①
C. ①→⑦→③→⑧→⑥→②→⑤→④→①
D. ①→②→③→④→⑤→⑦→⑧→⑥→①
31. The writer uses the Press reporting to suggest that ______.

It was the first snow of winter—an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers. Up until now，I had been old enough to dress myself, but today I would
need some help. Miss Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher, had been through first snow days many times, but I think she may still remember this one.
I managed to get into my wool snow trousers. But I struggled with my jacket because it didn't fit well. It was a hand-me-down from my brother, and it made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes. At least my hat and scarf were mine, and they were quite pretty. Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots(靴子).
In her calm, motherly voice she said, “By the end of wint er, you will be able to put on your own boots.” I didn't realize at the time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence(信心)．
I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot. Like most children, I expected grown-ups to do all the work. After much wiggling and pushing, she managed to get the first one into place and then, with a sigh, worked the second one on too.
I announced, “They're on the wrong feet.”
She struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again.
“They're my brother's boots, you know, ” I said, “I hate them！”
Somehow, from long years of practice, she managed to act as though I wasn't an annoying(烦人的)little girl. She pushed and pushed, less gently this time. With a greater sigh, seeing the end of her struggle with me, she asked, “Now, where are your mittens(连指手套)？”
I looked into her eyes and said, “I didn't want to lose them, so I hid them in the toes of my boots.”
32. The little girl was more satisfied with her______.
A. trousers
B. jacket
C. boots
D. hat
33. Miss Finlayson had difficulty with the girl's boots mainly because______.
A. the girl got them from her brother
B. the girl put something in them
C. they were on the wrong feet
D. they did not fit the girl well
34. Why does the author say Miss Finlayson would remember that first snow day?
A. Because the little girl was in her brother's clothes.
B. Because it was the most exciting day of the winter.
C. Because the little girl played a trick on her.
D. Because the little girl wore a pretty scarf.
35. We can learn from the text that Miss Finlayson______.
A. was losing confidence in the little girl
B. gradually lost patience with the little girl
C. became disappointed with the little girl
D. was getting bored with the little girl

Dear classmates,
As we know, health is very important to all of us.
Recently, I have found that some of our classmates study too late into the night and do not spare any time to take a rest during the day either, but they often cannot help falling asleep in class. And some classmates seldom have breakfast, which is also a bad habit and will surely do harm to their health.
In my opinion, it’s extremely important for us to have enough sleep and a proper diet. In addition, we must take enough exercise and make efforts to learn to make wise use of our time, and only in this way can we keep fit and active in our study as well as jobs we do.
I wonder if you agree with me. Thank you for reading my letter!
Yours sincerely,
LiHua。
