He dived into the cool water, not realizing that as he swam towards the middle of the lake, a crocodile was swimming toward him.His mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two as they got closer and closer. In great fear, she ran toward the water, shouting to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the crocodile reached him. From the shore, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the crocodile snatched his legs. That began an incredible tug-of-war (拔河) between the two. The crocodile was much stronger than the mother, but the mother was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams, raced from his truck, took aim and shot the crocodile.Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred by the attack of the animal. And, on his arms, were deep scratches where his mothers fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.The newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy, asked if he would show him his scars(伤疤). The boy lifted his legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter, “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my Mom wouldnt let go.”Never judge another persons scars, because you dont know how they were made.24.

Dont Judge by AppearancesCThe number of buses, taxis and other vehicles on Kenyas roads is growing every day. Now, the countrys first electric-powered motorbikes are coming onto the market. The bike is designed to cut down on pollution and aimed at low-income communities. Most motorbikes used in Kenya depend on gasoline, but not this new motorbike.Three university students developed the new ecotype bike. It catches the suns energy, stores it in batteries and uses it to charge (充电) the electric motor. Robert Achoge is one of the student inventors. “Our hope is that by the fifth year, we will be able to cover the whole of Kenya with the electric motorcycle so as to protect the environment and provide affordable transport.”The students have set up a charging station for the motorbikes in Nairobi. The small battery can run for 70 kilometers when fully charged. Once the power is used up, the motorbike has to return to the station while another charged battery is connected to the bike. The U.S. African Development Foundation (ADF) is helping set up two solar-powered charging stations in the port of Kisumu.Each ecotype bike costs about $700. One taxi operator says the new motorbike costs less to operate than that running on traditional gasoline. “When it comes to buying gasoline, theres no need. Its basically good for various things. As long as you wont take quite a heavy load (装载), you can go with it anywhere. Otherwise, it may break down halfway. But now people still have a preference to the gas-powered bikes.”A Nairobi businessman Kennedy Kusimba is selling the ecotype bikes. He hopes they will become popular. “We also know they are more reliable compared to the gas-powered bikes. They are more efficient (效率高的) and they will last longer.”28. What has happened to the vehicles in Kenya?A. Motorbikes are not allowed on the road.B. A new kind of motorbike is hitting the road.C. There are fewer buses and taxis in the street.D. Traditional motorbikes dont need gasoline any more.29. What do we know about the ecotype bike?A. It was developed by the ADF.B. It can charge itself while running.C. Its energy comes from the sunlight.D. It does more harm to the environment.30. What do people think of the ecotype bike?A. Its better not to use it to carry too much.B. It is a good choice for the long-distance journey.C. It will take the place of gas-powered bikes soon.D. It is much more expensive than a traditional motorbike.31. Where does the text probably come from?A. A research plan. B. An advertisement.C. A business report. D. A science magazine.DIn the past most Americans spent time with people of generations. Now mid-aged Americans may not keep in touch with old people until they are old themselves.Thats because we group people by age. We put our three-year-olds together in day-care center, our 13-year-olds in school and sports activities, and our 80-year-olds in senior-citizen homes. Why?We live away from the old for many reasons: young people sometimes avoid the old to get rid of fears for aging and dying. It is much harder to watch someone we love disappear before our eyes. Sometimes its so hard that we stay away from the people who need us most.Fortunately, some of us have found our way to the old. And we have discovered that they often save the young.A reporter moved her family onto a block filled with old people. At first her children were disappointed. But the reporter baked banana bread for the neighbors and had her children deliver it and visit. Soon the children had many new friends, with whom they shared food, stories and projects. “My children have never been less lonely,” the reporter said.The young, in turn, save the old. Once I was in a rest home when a visitor showed up with a baby. She was immediately surrounded. People who hadnt gotten out of bed in a week suddenly were ringing for a wheelchair. Even those who had seemed asleep wake up to watch the child. Babies have an astonishing power to comfort and cure.Grandparents are a special case. They give grandchildren a feeling of security and continuity. As my husband put it, “my grandparents gave me a deep sense that things would turn out right in the end.”Grandchildren speak of attention they dont get from worried parents. “My parents were always telling me to hurry up, and my grandparents told me to slow down,” one friend said. A teacher told me she can tell which pupils have relationships with grandparents: they are quieter, calmer, more trusting.32. Now in an American family, people can find that _.A. children never live with their parentsB. not all working people live with their parentsC. aged people are supported by their grandchildrenD. grandchildren are supported by their grandparents33. The reason why old people are left alone may be that _.A. the old dont like to live in a big familyB. the young cant get enough money to support the oldC. different generations have different lifestylesD. the old are too weak to live with the young34. The fact that the reporter told us shows that _.A. old people in America lead a hard lifeB. old people in America enjoy banana breadC. she had no time to take care of her childrenD. old people are easy to get along with35. Why do children not get attention from their parents?A. Because they often make trouble and make their parents disappointed.B. Because their parents are too busy to take care of them.C. Because their parents have to take care of their grandparents.D. Because their parents have been out of work for a long time.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Every person has goals in life.
