When Simn Cane was in the secnd grade, he began learning abut all the ways humans have an impact (影响) n the envirnment and really used thse classrm lessns every day in a way that made him different frm his schlmates at schl, P. S.81, in the Brnx. “He tld me we drve t much and made t much pllutin,” his dad, Jnathan Cane, tld Runner’s Wrld. S Simn persuaded his parents t start hanging their clthes t dry, taking the stairs instead f elevatrs, and ther “green” measures.
"Fr much f kindergarten and first grade I rde my bike t Simn’s schl with him n the back，" Jnathan said. "We had a lt f fun being utdrs. We’d stp t give ur dg treats and generally enjyed it." As Simn gt bigger， thugh， it wasn’t practical fr him t ride n his father’s back， but it als didn’t make sense t ride tgether - bth because f safety cncerns and because there was n place t put away Simn’s bike. S， mst f the time they drve the 1.5 miles t schl.
But in 2019， when Simn was ging int third grade， the 8-year-ld came up with a new way t help the planet: running the 1.5 miles t P. S.81. And Jnathan· prmised his sn he’d jin him fr as lng as he wanted.
"We did a test run ne day in August， and decided t give it a g. T be hnest， I thught he’d hld back when it gt really cld r rainy， but he never did，" Jnathan said. He recalled ne day when the weather was particularly bad. "It’s really raining ut there tday，" he tld Simn. "And Simn said， ‘Well then we’re ging t get wet！’ He tk pride in braving it， and it became a really fun family rutine."
Since the start， Simn has run with his dad and their black dg， Lla， and has even inspired his mm， Nicle Sin Quee， t jin in. They sn became knwn as "the family that run t schl".

I read smewhere that we spend a full third f ur lives waiting. But where are we ding all f this waiting， and what des it mean t an impatient sciety like urs？ T understand the prblem， let’s take a lk at three types f "waits".
The very purest frm f waiting is the Watched-Pt Wait. It is withut dubt the mst annying f all. Take filling up the kitchen sink as an example. There is abslutely nthing yu can d while this is ging n but keep bth eyes fixed n the sink until it’s full. During these waits， the brain slips away frm the bdy and wanders abut until the water runs ver the edge f the cunter and nt yur scks. This kind f wait makes the waiter helpless and mindless.
A cusin t the Watched-Pt Wait is the Frced Wait. This ne requires a bit f cntrl ver urselves. Prperly preparing packaged ndle sup required a Frced Wait. Directins are very specific. "Bring three cups f water， add mix， bil three minutes， remve frm heat， let stand five minutes." I have my dubts that anyne has actually fllwed the prcedures strictly. After all， Frced Waiting requires self-discipline.
Perhaps the mst pwerful type f waiting is the Lucky-Break Wait. This type f wait is unusual in that it is fr the mst part vluntary. Unlike the Frced Wait， which is als vluntary， waiting fr yur lucky break des nt necessarily mean that it will happen.
Turning ne’s life int a waiting game requires faith and hpe， and is strictly fr the ptimists amng us. On the surface it seems as stupid as fllwing the directins n sup mixes， but the Lucky-Break Wait well serves thse wh are willing t d it. As lng as ne desn’t cme t rely n it， wishing fr a few gd things t happen never hurts anybdy.
We certainly d spend a gd deal f ur time waiting. The next time yu’re standing at the sink waiting fr it t fill while cking ndle sup that yu’ll have t eat until a large bag f cash falls ut f the sky， dn’t be upset. Yu are nt alne. It is prbably smething that everybdy faces in their life prcess.
28．What d we tend t d while ding a Watched-Pt Wait？
A.T grw nervus.
B.T lse cncentratin.
C.T stay fcused.
D.T keep urselves busy.
29．What is the difference between the Frced Wait and the Watched-Pt Wait？
A.The Frced Wait makes peple active.
B.The Watched-Pt Wait needs directins.
C.The Frced Wait requires sme self-cntrl.
D.The Watched-Pt Wait engages bdy and brain.
30．What des the authr advise us t d the next time we are waiting？
A.Take it easy.
B.Stay alne.
C.D smething else.
D.Depend n yurself.
31．Hw des the authr develp his tpic？
A.By explring varius causes f "waits".
B.By shwing upsetting results f "waits".
C.By describing practical prcesses f "waits".
D.By analyzing （分析） different types f "waits".
Animals can express their needs using a lt f ways. Fr instance， almst all animals have distinct vcals （声音） that they rely n t either ask fr help， scare away any dangerus animals r lk fr shelter. But cats are special creatures wh pssess amazing vcalizatin skills. They are able t have entire cnversatins with humans using mews and yu're able t interpret it. If a pet cat is hungry， it will keep mewing t attract attentin and find fd. Hwever， when a cat is lking fr affectin， they tend t prduce stretched and sft mews. Mewing starts as sn as a baby cat is brught t life and uses it t get the mther's attentin and be fed.
Cats have many heightened senses， but their sense f smell is quite impressive. They use their nses t assess their envirnment and lk ut fr any signs f danger. They will sniff ut specific areas befre they chse a place t relax. Hwever， anther way the cats are able t distinguish between situatins is by lking fr familiar smells. Yur cat will likely smell yur face and stre the smell in its memry and use it t recgnize yu in the future. That's why mst pet cats are able t tell immediately if their wners were arund any ther cats， which they dn't usually like.
Dgs are knwn fr their impressive fetching habit, but cats take this behavir up a ntch. Many cats will find randm bjects utside and bring them t their wners. This is a very ld habit that's been present in all kinds f predatrs (食肉动物). Cats bring gifts fr their wners t shw they lve yu. These adrable little hunters are just ding smething that it's been in their nature since the beginning f time. S just g alng with it!
32．What can be learned abut cats' mewing frm the first paragraph？
A.It's a survival skill.
B.It's taught by mther cats.
C.It's hard t interpret.
D.It's getting luder with age.
33．Hw des a pet cat assess different situatins？
A.By listening fr sunds.
B.By tuching familiar bjects.
C.By checking n smells.
D.By cmmunicating with ther cats.
34．Which best explains the phrase " ntch" in paragraph 3？
A.Perfrm apprpriately.
B.Mve faster.
C.Act strangely.
D.D better.
35．What is a suitable title fr the text？

B.Understanding Yur Cat's Behavir
C.Have Fun with Yur Cat
D.Hw t Keep Yur Cat Healthy
三、七选五

24．答案： D
解析： 细节理解题。根据第一段:当西蒙·凯恩上二年级时，他开始学习人类对环境产生影响的所有方式并且真的利用每天课堂所学课程，在某种程度上这使他与布朗克斯的公立第81小学的同学们区别开来。和:因此，西蒙说服他的父母开始把衣服晾起来，走楼梯而不是电梯，以及其他"绿色"措施。可知Simn和他的同学的不同之处在于采取环保措施保护环境，故选D。
25．答案： B
解析： 推理判断题。根据第二段:然而随着西蒙长大，让他骑在他父亲的背上已经不现实了，而且让他一起骑车也没有意义了--既因为安全问题，也因为没有地方可以放西蒙的自行车。所以，大多数时候他们开车1.5英里去学校。和第三段:但在2019年，当西蒙上三年级时，这个8岁的孩子想出了一个帮助地球的新方法:跑1.5英里到公立第81小学。可推知西蒙二年级时通常父母开车送去上学，故选B。
26．答案： A
解析： 推理判断题。根据第四段:我们在8份的某一天进行了试跑，并决定尝试一下。说实话，我以为天气很冷或下雨时他会退缩，但他从来没有，乔纳森说。可推断西蒙比预期的要勇敢。故选A。
27．答案： C
解析： 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其第一段:当西蒙·凯恩上二年级时，他开始学习人类对环境产生影响的所有方式，并且真的利用每天课堂所学课程，在某种程度上这使他与布朗克斯的公立第81小学的同学们区别开来。和最后一段:从一开始，西蒙就和他的爸爸和他们的黑狗洛拉一起跑步，甚至他的妈妈妮可·辛·奎也加入了进来。他们很快就被称为"跑去上学的家庭"。可知文章讲述一位八岁的男孩SimmnCane为环保做出的实际行动--和爸爸一起跑步上学。所以C选项"父亲和儿子为环境奔跑"符合文章主旨，适合做标题，故选C。
28．答案： B
解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段中的:在这个过程中，你完全无事可做，只能双眼紧盯着水槽，直到它装满为止。在这段时间里，大脑会从身体中抽离，四处漫游，直到水溢出柜台边缘，流到你的袜子上。可知，我们在等待一壶水煮开的时候我们总是心不在焉的。故选B。
29．答案： C
解析： 推理判断题。由文章第二段中的:在这个过程中，你完全无事可做，只能双眼紧盯着水槽，直到它装满为止。在这段时间里，大脑会从身体中抽离，四处游，直到水溢出柜台边缘，流到你的袜子上。第二段:与"锅等待"类似的是"强制等待"。这种等待需要我们对自己的控制。正确准备即食面汤需要"强制等待"。说明书上的步骤非常具体:"倒入三杯水，加入调料包，煮三分钟，关火，静置五分钟。"我怀疑有人会严格按照这些步骤操作。毕竟，强制等待需要自律。可知，强制等待需要一定的自我控制，而守锅等待则不需要。故选C。
30．答案： A
解析： 推理判断题。由文章最后一段中:你并不孤单。这可能是每个人在生活中都会面临的事情。可知，作者建议我们在等待时沉住气，因为这是每个人都会面临的情况。故选A。
31．答案： D
解析： 推理判断题。根据第一段中:为了理解这个问题，让我们来看看三种类型的"等待"。可知，作者是通过分析不同种类的等待来展开话题的。故选D。
32．答案： A
解析： 理解具体信息。读题:本题问"从第一段中可以学到关于猫的喵瞄叫的什么信息？"。A项"它是一种生存技能";B项"它是猫妈妈教的";C项"它很难解释";D项"随着年龄的增长，叫声越来越大"，解题:根据第一段中的"They are able t have entire cnversatins with humans using pet cat is hungry， it will keep mewing t attract attentin and find fd" " Mewing starts as sn as a baby fed"可知，猫用喵喵叫和人对话。如果一只宠物猫饿了，它会不停地喵喵叫以吸引注意力并找到食物。喵喵叫从小猫一出生就开始了，小猫用它来吸引猫妈妈的注意并被喂食。由此可知， 喵喵叫是猫的生存技能。
