In the year 2050, we will use computer almost every day. We will be making new friends through the Internet—even our husbands or wives will be met in this way. It will be much faster and easier for us. On the other hand, our ‎ relationships with people won’t be as important as they are today— we will feel a little lonely.‎ ‎ Computers will also help us in many other activities in 2050. For example, they will be used by the children at school to make their learning easier. In addition, there will be much more other machines which will play a similar role as computers, like robots which will do the housework for us.‎ ‎ Spending holidays will also be completely different. Traveling to other planets or to the moon will be available for everyone. Means of transport will, of course, change, too. We will be using solar-powered cars, which will be much more environmentally friendly.‎ We could expect that the faster technological progress would lead to a more ‎ polluted environment. But it isn’t true. We will pay more attention to protecting the environment. And, scientists will probably find cures for many dangerous diseases, like cancer or AIDS. Therefore, our surroundings as well as health will be in a better condition.‎ ‎ Although we can’t predict the exact changes which will be made in the world, we often think about them. We worry about our and our children’s future; we have expectations, hopes as well as fears. But I think we should be rather sanguine about our future. We should be happy and believe good things will happen.‎ ‎24. Why will people probably feel a little lonely in 2050?‎ A. Because the number of people will become much smaller.‎ B. Because there will be less face-to-face communication.‎ C. Because people won’t like making friends with each other.‎ D. Because people won’t communicate with each other much often.‎ ‎25. The third paragraph mainly tells us _________.‎ A. that computers will do all the things for human beings.‎ B. how people will use computers to communicate with each other.‎ C. that machines like computers and robots will help people a lot.‎ D. how people will use robots to do the housework.‎ ‎26. According to the passage, which of the following will happen in 2050?‎ A. The relationship between people will be more important than today.‎ B. The way of spending holidays will be the same as that of today.‎ C. It won’t be difficult for people to travel to other planets.‎ D. Our environment will be much more polluted with a growing number of cars.‎ ‎27. The underlined word “sanguine” in the last paragraph most probably means “ ”.‎ A. disappointed B. surprised C. curious D. optimistic C ‎ In the 19th century Americans from the eastern states moved out west to settle in the rich new land along the Pacific Coasts. The most difficult part of their trip was crossing the “Great American Desert” in the western part of the United States.‎ ‎ The western desert can be very dangerous. There is little water and there are few trees. But the desert also has scenery of great beauty. Tall towers of red and yellow stones rise sharply from the flat, sandy valley floor.‎ ‎ At Lake Powell, the red stone arch（弓形）of Rainbow Bridge rises high above the blue lake. Many areas of Lake Powell’s shore can only be reached by boat or on foot. But hikers sometimes find very old Native American pictures, painted on the rocks.‎ ‎ In Death Valley, California, the summer temperature rises to 130~165 degrees Fahrenheit. There is less than two inches of rain each year. In the 1800s, many travelers died when they tried to cross this waterless valley in the terrible heat.‎ ‎ Although the desert is dry and seems empty, there is plenty of life if you look closely. Small insects, snakes, and rats have learned to live underground and come out at night when it is cool. Plants like cacti（仙人掌）which need very little water live here. When it rains, such plants grow quickly, and flowers open in a single day. For a short time, the desert is covered with brilliant colors.‎ ‎ Modern visitors to the Great American Desert haven’t the same problems as early travelers had. They have air conditioning and can carry plenty of water in their cars. They enjoy the change from the crowded city. And there is nothing more beautiful than the color of a desert sunset.‎ ‎28. The fifth paragraph mainly tells us that .‎ A. only those plants which need no water can live in the dry land B. although the desert is very dry, there’re still some animals and plants in the desert.‎ C. it rains once or twice each year averagely in the desert D. travelers can often see that the desert is covered with brilliant colors ‎29. Which of the following can be learned from the passage?‎ A. There are many kinds of wildlife in Death Valley.‎ B. Travelers may possibly see some pictures at Lake Powell.‎ C. The temperature is always 130~165 degree Fahrenheit in Death Valley.‎ D. Rats can live in the desert and come out even at hot night.‎ ‎30. Which of the following is NOT a feature of Death Valley?‎ A. Hot. B. Deadly. C. Waterless. D. Lifeless.‎ ‎31. What can we know from the last paragraph?‎ A. Settlers have no problems living in the desert.‎ B. Visitors like the brilliant colors of the desert sunset.‎ C. People from cities like the hard condition of the desert.‎ D. The Great American Desert has become a tourist attraction.‎ D Books have great power. Between their pages, readers can be transported to anywhere imaginable and become just about anyone… or anything. Unfortunately, many children all over the world don’t access to books!‎ For several years till now, Maria Keller, a 14-year-old girl from Minnesota, has been changing that fact. When she was 8 years old, Maria already loved reading. She also noticed that some of her classmates didn’t read as much as she did. When she asked he mother why that could be, her mother said that they might not be able to afford books. Maria had never thought of this. She could not believe that some children might not have bedtime stories read to them. She became determined to change this.‎ With her mother’s help, Maria created Read Indeed. Read Indeed is a non-profit organization aiming to collect and distribute books to children in need. During the early stages of Read Indeed, Maria set the goal to collect and distribute 1 million books by the time she is 18. It didn’t take that long for hr to reach that goal!‎ Today, at age 14, she has collected over 1.8 million books and has shipped them to many states and countries around the world. She says: “I cannot live without books. As I continue ‎ my mission, I have learned that the number of kids who have no books is in the hundreds of millions. So I just can’t give up, Even after reaching my original goal of 1 million books distributed.”‎ She’s recently set a new goal: to distribute books to kid in need in every state in the United States, and every country in the world. She keeps track of her progress on a large map at the warehouse where she stores and sorts books. Maria believes that she can get support from even more people!‎ ‎ 32.
