16、enerally speaking, newly born babies are not beautiful. They are wrinkled（多皱的）or hairless, or they have an angry look on their face. They seem to say, “Get away!

17、hat proud father or mother asks you, “Well, what do you thinkisnt she beautiful?” what are you going to say? Is this the time for the truth? Of course not!You look that father in the eye and say, “Yes, she is! She is really a beauty. Shes one in a million. Shes going to be a movie star! I can tell!
18、Shes as beautiful as a picture.”In English, this is a white lie. White lies dont hurt people. They are not cruel or angry words. People use them to make a difficult thing a little easier. When people dont want to meet someone, or eat something new that they really dont like at a friends house, they
19、tell a white lie. They are trying to be kind. They feel that being polite is sometimes more important. A doctor tells white lie in order to make a patient feel that his health is not so worse and then the patient may become optimistic.From what is said above, we may draw a conclusion that we should
20、not treat white lies as obstacles in life, and that sometimes telling a lie should not be associated with the issue of being dishonest. Some white lies can encourage you to be better.24.

23、t is terrible.COn Saturday 24 August 1918, it was raining cats and dogs and thundering over a city called Sunderland on the northeast coast of England. The storm lasted for only about ten minutes. People were surprised to see that it was not just rainwater falling from the sky. There were fish falli
24、ng down, too! People came out to find out what was happening. They could not believe their own eyes. There were thousands of fish sand eels（沙鳗） lying on the ground. They were about seven centimeters long, and all were frozen solid（冻成硬块）.Sand eels swim together in large groups, often in sandy water,
25、and are often found in large numbers in the North Sea, which reaches out to the east of Sunderland. How was it possible for these sand eels to fall from the sky and land on Sunderland?Scientists believed the heavy thunderstorm that afternoon may have caused a waterspout（水龙卷）. Waterspouts can be form
26、ed when strong winds move quickly in a circle over water. They are so powerful; anything less than one meter in length can be taken into them and forced into the clouds. The clouds carry whatever has been taken into them for long distances sometimes over 150 kilometers. Its very cold up there and ev
27、erything soon freezes solid.For hundreds of years there have been reports of small animals being taken into the sky through waterspouts. In 2009, dead tadpoles rained down on the city of Nanao in Japan. In 2012, fifty kilos of prawns fell from the sky over Sri Lanka. In 2017, fish fell on the coasta
28、l city of Tampico In Mexico.It must be a very strange experience to see fish raining down on you. It would probably hurt if one fell on your head! With climate change, global warming and many reports of terrible natural disasters, will the time ever come when it may really begin to rain cats and dog
29、s?28. What was the rain like on 24 August 1918? A. It was very heavy.B. It fell around England. C. It lasted quite a long time.D. It caused many human deaths.29.

30、ill alive when landing.D. They probably came from the North Sea.30. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Clouds.B. Waterspouts.C. Strong winds.D. The waters of the sea.31. In the end, what does the author probably care most about? A. Our health.B. Our environment. C. The
31、wild animals.D. The news reports.DHigh speeds, cool looks, and unusual names are what a typical American looks for when buying a car. This is a wasteful method because the cars we buy dont fit our lifestyles of thriftiness（节俭）. But we feel powerful when we drive huge cars, so thats why we buy them.M
32、ore people should drive hybrids, which are powered by a gas engine but also keeps a charge in a bank of batteries. As a result, they burn less gas and save more energy. You may complain, “They are not cool.” But what are you going to say when your planet gets so fouled up（弄乱）that you need a gas mask
33、 just to go outside? Well, thats whats going to happen if we dont act soon. Hybrids may cost more, but they will end up saving our life one day.Gasoline cars are inefficient ones that chew up cash. The best ones get only around 40 miles per gallon. We need to change our habits or we are going to run
34、 out of fossil fuel, and then no cars will be traveling down the street. Gasoline cars also pollute the air and create breathing problems.Some problems we will have in the future if we continue using gasoline cars are high levels of air pollution and groundwater toxicity. We will also use up our sup
35、ply of fossil fuels. We may cause a large increase in the speed of global warming, which will result in a rise in temperature and in turn bake our planet and all its living things.Cars should be bought not based on looks, but because they work well and help save the environment. Hybrids fulfill this
36、. If enough people used them, we wouldnt be as worried about global warming. We are at a point where we can only do one thing: reduce the amount of fossil fuels we use. If we dont, we may spell our own doom and end up creating natural disasters that we cannot control.32. According to the passage, hy
