Growing up on a remote Michigan farm,Henry Ford knew little of all this-but he soon
showed his interest more in the industrial future than in the agricultural past.His father,
William,hoped his eldest son would join him on the farm,and finally take it over.But Henry
hated farm work and did everything he could to avoid it.It was not that he was lazy but that
the repeated daily life of the farm upset him.
If given a mechanical()job to do,he would be set to work eagerly.When he was
twelve,he became almost uncontrollably interested in clocks and watches.Soon he was
repairing clocks and watches for friends.
In 1876,his wife died in childbirth.Henry suffered a blow and decided to get away from
the farm as soon as he could.Three years later,he worked as a mechanic in Detroit.One day
inl877,when he first saw a steam-driven locomotive(蒸汽机车),Henry went to the
locomotive driver and asked him plenty of questions about the engine's performance.From
then on,Henry became crazy about steam engines.Later,with the help of an old co-worker,
Henry got an engineer position at the Edison Detroit Electricity Company.
Although Henry quickly became chief engineer at the Detroit power factory,his interest
in fuel engines took up his life.He spent most of his spare time trying to build an engine
according to his own design.Henry went through the hard way to build an engine by hand
from the beginning.It was two years before he succeeded in building a working car.It was
unattractive-looking on bicycle wheels and driven by a rubber belt that connected the engine.
Henry called it the“Quadricycle(四轮自行车)”.
24.What appealed to Henry Ford most when he was very young?
A.Sports.
B.Farm work.

As the world tries to give up fossil fuels,there is a lot of focus on renewable energy sources like
wind and solar energy.But one very promising source of energy comes from deep inside the earth.
And old oil wells could help greatly in developing and using this energy resource.
“Geothermal(地热的)”power is based on the heat that comes from deep inside the earth.
“Geo”means Earth and“thermal”means“heat”.Earth's core,deep in the center of the
planet,is about as hot as the sun's surface,and is expected to stay that way for billions of
years.This heat slowly makes its way outward from the core.In some places,where the
rocks have lots of holes in them,this heat comes out in different kinds of hot springs,with
hot water and steam coming out naturally through the earth's surface.In areas like this,
humans have been using the earth's heat for different purposes for hundreds of years.
In general,though geothermal energy requires drilling()deep into the earth.There
are many different ways of collecting the heat and different ways of using it.But these
geothermal wells can easily produce huge amounts of heat and electricity for hundreds of
years-all without pollution.
There is another positive side to geothermal energy-it can produce power day and night
all year long.Solar power depends on the sun,and wind power depends on wind.That means
that they are not constant.But energy from geothermal sources is always available(
)However,geothermal energy also faces a big challenge-drilling down deep enough to
create a geothermal plant is hard,and it costs a lot of money.Some geothermal plants require
drilling down more than 4 miles (6.5 kilometers)below the earth's surface.Drilling down
even deeper can lead to much more heat and far more powerful energy sources.
The costs of all this drilling are a big part of what has limited geothermal projects.But
now people are starting to think about a clever idea that could make geothermal energy far
cheaper:using oil wells that are already there.
28.What can be learned about geothermal energy from the text?
A.It is collected from the depths of the earth.
B.It doesn't belong to renewable energy.
C.It has only been used for a century.
D.It can be got from fossil fuels.
29.What might NOT be the advantage of geothermal energy?
A.Various ways of using it.
B.Available all the time.
C.Environmentally friendly.
D.Cheap and easy to collect.

30.What does the underlined word "That"in Para.4 refer to?
A.What effects geothermal energy has on our lives.
B.How solar energy and wind energy are stored.
C.What solar power and wind power depend on.
D.How geothermal energy can be used.
31.Why are people turning to oil wells for geothermal energy?
A.To reduce the costs.
B.To limit geothermal projects.
C.To take care of the environment.
D.To try to save and make full use of energy.

Thomas Scovel,one of the first professors from the United States to teach at a Chinese
university,returned to his old school recently to make a donation()for one of his former
students.
Scovel was actually born in Jining,Shandong province,in 1939 as the son of a doctor
from America and later returned to the US.He came back to China in 1979 to take up a
teaching position at Tianjin Foreign Studies University.
The former professor,who has written a book about the great changes that have taken
place in China since reform and opening-up was introduced in 1978,took to the stage at the
university's 60th anniversary celebration on Sept 28 to present a check for 2.2 million yuan
(300,000)to the university for his former student Yang Bin.The donation will go toward a
kind of scholarship()and awards for teachers,and adds to an earlier 2 million yuan
donated by Yang in 2014.The cash was paid to students as awards for exhibiting exceptional
leadership,athletic skills and a spirit of being helpful and generous.For the teaching awards,
they have been named after Scovel and his wife Janene,who also taught at the university.
Zhou Honglei,the university's leader,recognized Scovel as "one of the first foreign
professors to journey from the US to China".Scovel wrote a message for the university's 60th
anniversary celebration,reflecting on the late 1970s when China began its journey of reform
and opening-up.From 1979 on,Scovel only returned to the university in 2014 for its 50th
anniversary.
In one of his writings,he remembered encountering a short political phrase put up on the
wall promoting the then popular"four modernizations"on a billboard,which read,"Catch up
with and overtake Japan by the Year 2000!""Little did I know that not long after the new
millennium(千年),China would far overtake Japan in terms of exports to the US,”he said.
Scovel noted the significant changes in China since 1978."Forty years ago,it was almost
unimaginable that,in today's China,numerous people would have their own houses,have a
car and that phones would be more common than fountain pens,he said.
32.What can we know about Thomas Scovel?
A.He has completed a book about his family.
B.He has mostly lived in China since 1979.
C.He once worked as a doctor.
D.He is in his eighties now.
33.Why did Yang Bin donate the money to the university?

B.To purchase some teaching equipment.
C.To offer poor students some education fees.
D.To help with the construction of some buildings.

How often one hears children wishing they were grown up,and old people wishing they
were young again?36.The happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives
him without wasting his time on useless regrets.

he will ever again in his future life be given so much without having to do anything in return.

the "Newton of Gaza".That is 42 the English scientist,Isaac Newton.Newton is 43
his major 44 discoveries in the fields of physics,mathematics and astronomy more than
300 years ago.A famous 45 about Newton describes how an apple falling on his head led

Al-Attar and his family are staying in a tent that is 47 attached to()a house.He
was able to climb onto the roof to 48 the two fans,one above the other.The wind could
49 the fans,which produced small amounts of electricity.He then connected the fans to
wires and built a charging station.Al-Attar also designed switches()to 50 a lighting
system made out of wood.

I remember the day 56 I first learned to ride a bike.From my point of view,it was a
very adventurous yet fun experience.My grandfather,who had green fingers,was the one that
taught me to ride and gave me a hand when I got hurt.The first time I got on a bike,I had no
idea what I was doing,and everything went wrong.My grandfather told me to just put my
feet on the pedals(and start cycling.I kept his advice in mind.He also told me he would
hold on to the back of the bike the whole time 57 case I might fall off the bike.I made an
assumption that he would do that,yet actually he didn't.
As soon as I started trying to balance myself,he let the bike go.I happened to look back
just then.When I was quite frightened,my mind went blank,and I just wanted to be off the
bike.I forgot how to use the brakes().That caused me to fall off the bike.At 58
sight of that,my grandfather came up and kept encouraging me to get up and try again.I
admitted 59 (feel)so nervous.
As soon as I started riding again,my pants got caught in the chain,and I fell flat on my face and
hit my nose.I didn't make a 60 (complain)and asked my grandfather,"61 I go on learning
to ride today?"My grandfather said,"No,you needn't.So far you 62 (finish)your training.
Let's call it a day,shall we?You may as well rise early tomorrow morning."The next
morning I woke up bright and early,and was very eager to try to ride my bike.My nose felt
better and I became rather 63 (energy)again.I did my best to prevent myself from falling
down to the ground anymore.My strong determination was to make an effort to learn to ride
my bike skillfully.64 (eventual),I managed 65 (ride)the bike better.

Dear Bill,
How are you doing recently?Glad to receive your email asking about how to get on well with others.As we
all know,interpersonal communication is an ability that everyone should have.Here are my suggestions.
First of all,we should respect others.Everyone has his or her own ideas and their own way to do things,
so we should understand each other.Besides,it is important for us to communicate with each other and share
our happiness and sadness.What's more,we should be kind to others and offer necessary help to those who are
in trouble.In my opinion,we should treat others in an honest way.
Only in this way can we get along well with each other and feel happy.Hope that my advice above can
benefit you a lot.
Yours,
