I was on a train in Switzerland（瑞士）. Thirty minutes later, the train came to a stop and the conductor’s（乘务员）voice over the loudspeaker delivered a message in German, Italian and French. I’d made the mistake of not learning any of those languages before my vacation. Everyone started getting off the train and an old woman saw that I was confused and stressed. (I had to catch an overnight train to Rome, and I was flying home from there). She could speak some English and told me that an accident had happened on the tracks（轨道）. She asked me where I was trying to get to, then went and talked to some workers, and came back to tell me that we’d have to hop（换乘）trains three or four times to get there.

I was really glad she was heading the same way because it would have been impossible for me to figure it out on my own（自己弄清楚）. So we went from one train station to the next, getting to know each other along the way. She was really the sweetest woman. It was a 2.5-hour journey in total, and when we made it to the final destination（目的地）, we got off and said our goodbyes. I had made it just in time to catch my train to Rome. She told me she had a train to catch as well. I asked her how much farther she had to go and it turned out（结果是）that her home was two hours back the other way. She had jumped from train to train and travelled the whole just to make sure that I made it. I was in shock. A woman spent her whole day sitting on trains and taking her hours away from her home just to help out a confused（迷惑的）tourist visiting her country.

No matter how many countries I visit, I’ll always say the most beautiful country in the world is Switzerland.

19．The author had to get off the train at a stop because ______.

A．she got on the wrong train by mistake B．there was an accident on the tracks

C．she couldn’t understand the constructor D．an old woman invited her to travel together

20．How many hours did the old woman spend sitting on trains that day?

A．About an hour. B．About 2.5 hours. C．About 3 hours. D．About 5 hours.

21．The old woman travelled the whole way with the author just to ______.

A．make sure the author wouldn’t get lost B．practice her English with the author

C．spend time with a foreigner on the train D．show the author around her country

22．What can we infer from the text?

A．The old woman is in Rome, Italy.

B．The author’s English is not better than the old woman’s.

C．The author thinks people in Switzerland are quite nice.

D．The old woman helped get a ticket to the final destination.

Both of the activities will be held from 2:30 pm to 4 pm on March 25, March 30 and April 5.

The garden is a national 3 A-level scenic area where people rush in to enjoy the plants and flowers all the year round.

However, the garden was set up mainly for medicinal plant protection and research.

Today there are 6.4 billion people on the earth. By the year 2050 there may be 12.5 billion. There are many people to feed. We need more and more food.

One way to produce more food is growing stronger plants. For thousands of years, farmers have made plants better. Every season, they pick the best plants for the next season. It works very slowly. Since 1983, scientists have been able to change plants more quickly by changing their genetic (遗传的) material. Foods from plants grown in this way are called genetically modified (转基因的) foods, or GM foods.

By changing the genetic material of a plant, it is possible to make new plants. Scientists make plants which are strong against plant diseases. They can also help in our diseases: a kind of rice will be grown, for example, which stops people becoming blind.

Rich countries produce GM foods because they are easy to grow and bring in more money. Poor countries are interested in them because they help produce more food.

GM plants are not natural. No one knows how good or bad they are. Making GM foods is only one way of feeding people in 2050. There are strong feelings against them because they are unnatural. They may feed people, then hurt them or their children later. But both rich and poor countries are interested in their uses, and they are not going to go away. In 2050, we may think differently about them.

27．There may be __________ billion people by the year 2050 on the earth.

A．6.4 B．12.5 C．18.5 D．20.5

28．Why do rich countries produce GM foods?

A．Because they are easy to grow and bring in more money.

B．Because they are easy to grow and very cheap.

C．Because they help produce more food.

D．Because they are the best plants.

29．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A．GM plants are not natural.

B．GM plants are strong against plant diseases.

C．Everyone knows how good or bad GM plants are.

D．GM foods may hurt people or their children later.

30．What can we learn from the passage?

A．GM foods will go away one day in the future.

B．GM foods will not go away in the future.

C．People will not be interested in GM foods.

D．People will have to stop eating GM foods.

Failure is such a common matter that every one of us may meet from time to time. Even the most successful people in the world have trouble times. People often say that “Failure is the mother of success.” This might have some truth to it, but it does not tell us how to turn a loss into a win. We know we shouldn’t give up when we fail-but in fact, we do. The following advice can help you turn failure into success.

____32____

Accept that things did not work out as planned. Even if you worked especially hard on something, it’s important to know and accept that it didn’t work. Don’t let a failure stop you from trying a new idea in the future.

____33____

You may not want to jump right back into your project after a failure. If you’re tired or need some time to clear your head, take some time off. For some people, this may mean closing a project for some time while for others it may mean taking a vacation or road trip. Remember that leaving it for a while is not the same thing as stopping.

____34____

You might feel painful at first, but spend some time thinking about why you failed. What went wrong or didn’t work? For example, if you failed a test, think about how you studied for it. Do you need to study or learn in a different way? Answering these questions can help you learn from the experience and do better on your next exam.

____35____

If you get some advice on your project, take it to heart. Find out what parts other people think are working and which parts are not working. For example, if you’re performing a musical piece, ask for advice on how to improve. You may get some valuable suggestions. Also, you can ask successful people what have led to success.

Failure is a common thing in our daily life. Once you learn how to do this, you will never be afraid to fail again.A．Take a break.

B．Listen to others.

C．Accept your mistakes.

D．Work hard on everything.

E．Find out what went wrong.
