Water goes around and around Earth in a never ending journey called the water cycle. The sun heats up lakes, oceans, and other wet places on Earth. When the water gets warm enough, it changes into vapour(水蒸气). Plants also give off lots of water vapour. Some of this water vapour cools off high in the sky and becomes clouds. Then it falls back to Earth in a new place as rain or snow. This cycle happens over and over again.
The ground can absorb water like a sponge. If you could see this groundwater, it wouldn’t look like a lake or river. The groundwater is mixed in with the rocks and sand that lie in layers below Earth’s surface.
Groundwater moves along slowly. How slowly? Maybe 1.5 kilometers in one century. Some of this water has been underground for thousands of years. And once groundwater is pumped out of the ground from a deep well by people, it may take hundreds of years for another water to take its place.
24.In which order does water go around Earth?
a .Fall down as rain or snow.
b. Heated up by the sun on lakes, oceans and other wet places.
c. Cool off high in the sky.
d. Form clouds.
e. Change into vapour.
A. d-a-c-b-e
B. b-e-c-d-a
C. c-a-e-b-d
D. b-c-e-d-a
25. The groundwater seems to________.
A. be just on the ground
B. be pure water like that in a lake or river
C. exist in rocks and sand
D. flow along like rivers or streams
26. The underlined word “pumped” in the passage can be replaced by________.
A. run
B. pushed
C. pulled
D. picked

B. Groundwater is very valuable.
C. Groundwater has nothing to do with human beings.
D. Groundwater travel in an unknown way.

It has always been said that women are not good drivers, because they simply don't have very good driving ability. On the other hand, most car accidents happen to men; very few happen to women.
From this, we can see that women are much more careful while driving. Another very interesting fact that we should point out is that in the past, women preferred to let their husbands be the only driver in the family rather than have a driving license. Somehow they were prevented from making this step in their lives, but nowadays there are many women that want to pass their driving tests from an early age.
However, we have to admit that men are more skillful drivers than women, but this does not mean that a woman cannot become a good driver by accumulating experience. So more and more teenagers and women around the age of thirty now want to pass their driving tests. While taking their driving lessons, they also have a number of special lessons with their parents or somebody in the family that has a driving license, this is just to improve their driving abilities and help them to
pass the tests more easily.
To conclude, we can say that women are not such bad drivers. They just need more experience than men in order to be able to drive well. And on the other hand, there are a number of women that show better driving skills than the men around them.
32. Compared with the past, nowadays many women___.
A. prefer to have a driving license
B. have more accidents while driving
C. are somehow prevented from driving
D. are the only driver in the family
33.What advantage do women have over men in driving?
A. They have more skills.
B. They are much more careful
C. They know more traffic rules
D. They have more driving experience
34.What can we infer from the passage?
A. Teenage girls cannot take driving tests.
B. Men didn't allow women to drive in the past.
C. With enough experience, women can become good drivers.
D. Women can easily pass their tests by taking driving lessons.
35.The passage mainly talks about___.
A. women and their driving ability.
B. men and their driving ability.
C. why men are better drivers than women.
D. why more women like to have a driving license

My opinion on Cheating in Examinations
It is known to us all that some students cheat in the examinations at school. It has three reasons.
First of all, there are so many exams for the students. Besides, they are difficult in some way. Secondly, some students are too lazy to study. The last reason is to please their parents and teachers. For some students, bad marks give them great pressure and make them depressed.
In my opinion, cheating in exams is wrong. It is not allowed in the school rules. We should take active attitude to our studies, be honest and hard-working, and try to get a mark which is true as well as good. In a word, study is our duty.。
