At noon, I would race breathlessly home, a tenminute walk from my school. My mother was waiting for me with pleasure to have lunch while I shared what happened at school.
I had been picked to be the princess in the school play, and for weeks my mother had rehearsed my lines so hard with me. But no matter how easily I acted at home, hardly had I stepped on stage when every word escaped me. Finally, my teacher asked me to change to a narrator's part. Her word, kindly expressed, still hurt, especially when I saw my part go to another girl.
I didn't tell my mother what had happened that day. But she sensed my pain. Instead of suggesting we practice my lines, she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard.
Under the rose vine, we could see yellow dandelions (蒲公英), as if a painter had touched our landscape with shades of gold. I watched my mother casually bend down by one dandelion. “I'm going to dig up all these weeds，” she said, pulling it up by its roots. “From now on, we'll have only roses in this garden.”
“But I like dandelions” I argued. “All flowers are beautiful — even dandelions.”
My mother asked thoughtfully, “Yes, every flower gives pleasure in its own way, doesn't it？” I nodded, pleased I had won her over. “And that is true of people too，” she added. I burst into tears, a mixture of relief and regret swelling up as I told her what had happened.
“But you will be a beautiful narrator，” she said, encouraging me as she did. “The narrator's part is important, too.” Composing myself gradually, I began to accept the narrator's part. Then came the performance day. I was still nervous, but it was at that very moment that I found a dandelion in my pocket. It was obvious that my mom secretly put the flower there, which magically gave me confidence.
24．Why did the author get changed to the narrator's part?
A．She was shy. B．She lacked practice.
C．She disliked the former role. D．She totally forgot the lines.
25．What did her mother do when the author felt upset?
A．Her mother asked her what happened patiently.
B．Her mother insisted on her practicing the lines.
C．Her mother made her realize every role counted.
D．Her mother immediately encouraged her to cheer up.
26．Which of the following can best describe the author's mother?
A．Sympathetic but strict. B．Understanding and wise.
C．Passionate but anxious. D．Curious and easygoing.
27．What does the text mainly tell us?
A．All that glitters is not gold.
B．Actions speak louder than words.
C．Constant dripping wears away a stone.
D．Every individual can make a difference.

If you make a list of the world's top ten most challenging jobs, chances are that being a teacher will not make the cut. But think about the discouraging task millions of educators face each day as they try to shape a group of often badtempered, wild kids into intelligent, wellrounded individuals. That surely has to be the toughest job in the world, especially given that there is no promotion or bonus awaiting them even if they are wildly successful!
What if these allimportant individuals that we often take for granted disappear from our lives? That was what Project Ed and Participant Media's Teach campaign asked filmmakers of all ages to imagine in their recentlyheld competition entitled “A World Without Teachers”. Its purpose was to inspire more young people to become teachers. However, the 62 amazing video submissions also serve as a reminder of how horrible things would be if we didn't have these selfless individuals guiding us through life. What was interesting is that even the youngest participants did not appear to be happy at the idea of not having anybody telling them what to do.
A high school student Savannah Wakefield showed what art would be without teachers in the world. Would Monet have discovered his talent for impressionism? Los Angelesbased Miles Horst, who won the 1,000 USD prize for the best adult submission imagines a world where teachers are replaced by a “brain box” in his fun lively entry.
Youth category winner Marina Barham's video represents a fact we all know but often forget. Teachers don't just teach, they inspire—something that no electronic device, no matter how smart, can do! So the next time you think your teacher is being “mean” for trying to channel you in the right direction, imagine life without him/her. We have a feeling that it will not appear as rosy!
28．From the passage we can learn that ________．
A．teaching naughty kids is a very discouraging task
B．teachers have little influence on kids' individual development
C．a successful teacher has the greatest chance to be promoted
D．being a teacher is one of the most challenging jobs in the world
29．What is the purpose of the project “A World Without Teachers”？
A．To attract kids to submit more videos of their teachers.
B．To remind students to appreciate teachers' hard work.
C．To expect teachers to devote themselves to their jobs.
D．To encourage more people to go into teaching career.
30．What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 suggest?
A．A world without teachers will be unimaginable.
B．The future of teachers' work appears inspiring.
C．Teaching is quite different from other jobs.
D．Many people attach more importance to teaching.
31．What is the best title of the passage?
A．A survey of people's views about teachers
B．The campaign to promote teachers' status
C．The significance of teachers
D．A competition to win the prize for the best teacher
D
After a long day under the beating sun, an ice cream might be a tempting treat. But would you be able to enjoy it if you knew it was made from insect “milk？” Gourmet Grubb, a food company, is hoping to use ice cream to introduce the public to the world of eating insects. Its ice cream uses EntoMilk, a dairy alterative made from insects known as the black solider fly, which is full of nutrients and friendly to farm and produce. “The ice cream flavors include chocolate, peanut butter and Christmas spices. We set out to change the way insects were seen, produced and used in the food industry，” said Leah Bessa, who cofounded Gourmet Grubb in 2017, “We were expecting a lot of push back. However, people said the first bite was not a taste of disgust but a pleasant surprise and they couldn't wait to have one more.”
According to Bessa, EntoMilk has “a slightly taste of earth” and gives the ice cream “a rich, creamy taste”. The insect “milk” ice cream is made with natural ingredients, such as raw honey, cocoa, spices and organic peanut butter. But it's not just about the taste — Bessa says the insect “milk” is also high in nutrients that are comparable to fish and meat like beef, chicken, and pork. EntoMilk is five times higher in protein than dairy.
“Insects need very little water, feed and space to grow，” Bessa explained, “They also produce little or no greenhouse gases compared to traditional livestock.” Insects can be farmed indoors in small, controlled environments and they can be raised in urban areas, reducing the time of transporting the milk to the city. It also means they are less at risk of being impacted by outer climate patterns, which would affect cattle and crops. There is also potential for insect farming to reduce waste.
The United Nations predicts that the world will need to double food production to feed the global population by 2050 and has long promoted insect farming as a sustainable alternative protein source to traditional livestock. Although over 1，900 insect species are estimated to be consumed by humans worldwide, insects are yet to reach the mainstream of Western cuisine.
32．What did customers think of the insectmade ice cream?
A．Really unpleasant. B．Easily acceptable.
C．Slightly sweet. D．Extremely disgusting.
33．Which of the statements is true according to the passage?
A. EntoMilk has an advantage over dairy in taste.
B. Gourmet Grubb's ice cream is produced with manmade ingredients.
C. The insect “milk” ice cream will soon become a bestseller at Christmas.
D. EntoMilk is as good as conventional meats in nutrients.
34．What feature does insect farming possess?
A．It is almost harmless to the environment.
B．It needs a large area of land to rise the insects.
C．It requires advanced technology to keep insect alive.
D．It saves huge amounts of labor to transport the milk.
35．What can be inferred from the passage?
A．Insects have already been well welcomed by Western people.
B．Many countries will import insects to feed their population.
C．Gourmet Grubb has expanded its business under the guidance of the UN.
D．Insects may be a way to deal with the problem of food shortage.
