Alexander von Humboldt was born in 1769 in Berlin， Germany. As a young boy， he wanted to learn about the world. Humboldt followed his dream. In 1799， he traveled with a friend to Central and South America.

On their trip， Humboldt and his friend saw and did many things. They sailed down the Amazon River. They watched dolphins play in the ocean. They explored the rain forest and climbed mountains and volcanoes. They were able to make the first maps of the northern part of South America.

Humboldt set a world record for mountain climbing. He also made a discovery. During his climb， Humboldt became very sick. He found out that the higher he climbed， the less oxygen there was in the air. This made it more difficult to breathe. Later， this became known as mountain sickness.

Science was another part of Humboldts interests. He wanted to write about all of the new things he saw. He described the new plants， animals， and rocks which had never been seen by scientists before.

Humboldt also studied the way of life of the local people. He learned how the native people along the Amazon River used plants in their daily lives. For example， they used a strong poison from a vine （蔓生植物） to make poisoned arrows. The natives used these arrows for hunting their food.

The Amazon Indians also used a native plant to treat malaria （瘧疾）， a serious illness. The plant grew wild， but after it was dug up， it was never replanted. Humboldt warned the natives that the plant was in danger of dying out. He looked for ways to protect the plant and to make it grow strong.

Although Humboldt took many risks during his trip， he lived to be 90 years old. In his lifetime， he made many discoveries and shared them with the world. As a tribute （颂扬） to Humboldt， there are rivers and mountains named after him.

21. Humboldt and his friend made maps of ___ .

A. the southern part of Central America B. the northern part of Central America

An English saying goes， “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” That means we should relax after a days hard work or well be unhealthy.

Many students know that if they want to get ideal jobs with good salaries， they must do well in high school so they can enter good universities. Therefore， they spend all day studying without time to relax.

However， not all students can go to top universities even if they work very hard. Students are pressurized by parents and teachers who are just concerned about their studies and exam scores while ignoring （忽视） their hobbies and individual differences. As a result， students are forced to work harder and harder. Furthermore， there is pressure coming from students themselves. They realize they have a slim （微乎其微的） chance of getting into a top university as competition is fierce. So they put a lot of stress on themselves and stay in a nervous state day after day. If they keep it up， theyll suffer illnesses： both psychological and physical.

What students need is relaxation. This doesnt mean that they should give up their ambitions and stop studying hard. It means “work while you work； play while you play”. If you can do this， you will improve your health greatly. Youll feel yourself suddenly fresh， just like recovering from a terrible illness. Youll find that your studies are not a burden （負担） anymore.

24. What might the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 mean？

A. Anyone who works too hard will break down. B. Work and play have a great effect on peoples health.

C. Jack becomes dull because he doesnt play at all. D. One should keep a balance between work and rest.

25. What is the problem with the parents and teachers？

A. They dont love those who work the hardest. B. They give the students too much to bear.

C. They dont know how to let the students relax. D. They fail to understand what the students need most.

26. What may the pressure from the students themselves lead to？

A. They think too much about the result of their work. B. They dont know how to get into top universities.

C. They fail to relax themselves during their work. D. They want to relax but have no chance.

27. What is the passage mainly about？

A. What to do to relax yourself. B. The serious situation for the poor students.

C. How to be a healthy and successful learner. D. Some problems caused by the misunderstanding of learning.

Yellowstone Weather

Yellowstone National Park is at high altitude （海拔高度）. Most of the park is above 7，500 feet （2，275 meters）.

Yellowstones weather is unpredictable. In summer， it may be warm and sunny with temperatures in the high 70s. At night in any given month， the temperature may drop close to freezing. So it is best to come prepared for cold evenings and mornings， especially if you are camping or hiking. When you leave your campsite， please leave it prepared for possible thundershowers and wind.

A sunny warm day may become fiercely stormy with wind， rain， sleet and sometimes snow. Without enough clothing， an easy day hike or boat trip can turn into a battle for survival.

Seasonal Weather Information

As the most common and popular forms of energy are being used up quickly， the search to find new sources of energy is underway. These sources of energy must be renewable and not cause the pollution that fossil fuels do. Among them are solar energy， geothermal （地熱的） energy， wind energy and tidal energy.

We can get endless solar energy from the sun. The main problem is to collect and store this energy in an economical way. We can receive energy from the sun with plates or cells. Collectors put on roofs of houses and other buildings turn solar energy into heat. With this energy we can heat up water or the air inside. Solar cells transform the suns light directly into electricity.

Geothermal power can be produced in places where water comes into contact with hot rock below the earths surface. The water that reaches these hot areas turns into steam， which then produces electricity. Geothermal heat is an important source of energy in countries or regions that lie in volcanic areas， like Iceland， Italy， New Zealand or California.

Windmills have been used for centuries to grind grain into flour between two large stones or pump （用泵输送） water out of areas that have been flooded. Today， large wind generators turn the power of wind into electricity. Such devices， however， can only be used in places with strong and constant winds. At the moment， though， costs are too high to produce wind energy on a big scale.

Tidal energy comes from the movement of ocean waves. One way to use the power of waves is to seal off a bay with a dam. When water moves into and out of the bay it turns a turbine （渦轮）， which produces electricity. There are some coastal areas around the world where the difference between high and low tide is up to 10 meters or more. Great Britain， Germany and France have coastal regions where such power can be created.

32. The main problem about solar energy is how to ___ .

A. find the right place to fix plates or cells B. collect and store it economically

C. use cells to store electricity D. cut down the costs for it

33. What kind of energy can be used if there are hot rocks under the earth in your area？

A. Geothermal energy. B. Wind energy. C. Tidal energy. D. Solar energy.

34. How can windmills be used？

a. To grind grain into flour.

b. To move a turbine by boiling water.

c. To pump water out of flooded areas.

d. To turn the power of wind into electricity.

A. a， b， c B. a， b， d C. a， c， d D. b， c， d

35. What can we infer from the text？

A. Tidal energy was used in our daily life centuries ago.

B. We can collect and store energy from the sun for free.

C. Some kinds of energy mentioned in the text will cause air pollution.

D. Environmentally-friendly and renewable sources of energy are badly in need.

36 People use money to buy food， furniture， books， bicycles and hundreds of other things they need or want. When they work， they usually get paid in money.

Most of the money today is made of metal or paper. 37 One of the first kinds of money was shells.

Shells were not the only things used as money. In China， cloth and knives were used. In the Philippine Islands， rice was used as money for a long time. Elephant tusks （象牙）， monkey tails and salt were used as money in parts of Africa.

The first metal coins were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in the center. 38

Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money. 39 Sweden and Russia used copper to make their money. Later some countries began to make coins of gold and silver.

But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive. Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money. 40 The first paper money looked more like a note from one person to another than the paper money used today.

Money has had an interesting history from the days of shell money until today.

A. They began to use paper money.

B. The first coins in England were made of tin.

C. Money， as we know， is usually made of paper.

D. But people used to use all kinds of things as money.

E. No one knows for certain when people began to use money.

F. People strung them together and carried them from place to place.

G. Today anyone will accept money in exchange for goods and services.
