In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he ran out of the back door, leaving behind shoes,
16、 socks and shirt as he went.He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, an alligator(短吻鳄 ) was getting close. The mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In great fear, she ran toward the water
17、, yelling to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy noticed the danger and made a Uturn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the alligator reached him. From the dock, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched(抓住
18、) his legs. That began an unbelievable tug-of-war(拔河比赛 ) between the two. The alligator 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, rushed from his truck, took aim and shot the alligator.Surprisingly, after
19、weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred by the terrible 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 t
20、he boy after the trauma(外伤), asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted the pant legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter, “Look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my mum wouldnt let go.”You and I can agree with that little boy. We have s
21、cars, too. Not from an alligator, but the scars of a painful past. Some of those scars are unsightly and have caused us deep regret. But, some wounds are my friends because we have refused to let go.24. The underlined part “the two” in the second paragraph refers to .A. the mother and the son B. the
22、 son and the alligatorC. the driver and the alligator D. the alligator and the mother25. From the passage we can infer .A. The mother was unwilling to let the alligator go.B.

23、his scars on his legs.26. The underlined word “unsightly” in the last paragraph can be replaced by .A. painful B. ugly C. strange D. unbelievable27.

24、to let go sometimes. D. Wounds are different from scarPassage CThe sharing economy , represented by companies like Airbnb or Uber, is the latest fashion craze. But many supporters have overlooked the reality that this new business model is largely based on escaping regulations and breaking the law.A
25、irbnb is an Internet-based service that allows people to rent out spare rooms to strangers for short stays. Uber is an Internet taxi service that allows thousands of people to answer ride requests with their own cars. There are hundreds of other such services. The good thing about the sharing econom
26、y is that it promotes the use of underused resources. Millions of people have houses or apartments with empty rooms, and Airbnb allows them to profit from these rooms while allowing guests a place to stay at prices that are often far less than those charged by hotels. Uber offers prices that are com
27、petitive with standard taxi prices and the drivers are often much quicker and more trustworthy. But the downside of the sharing economy has gotten much less attention. Most cities and states both tax and regulate hotels, and the tourists who stay in hotels are usually an important source of tax inco
28、me. But many of Airbnb customers are not paying the taxes required under the law. Airbnb can also raise issue of safety for its customers and trouble for hosts neighbors. Hotels are regularly inspected to ensure that they are not fire traps and that they dont form other risks to visitors. Airbnbs ro
29、oms face no such inspections.Since Airbnb is allowing people to escape taxes and regulations, the company is simply promoting thefts. Others in the economy will lose by bearing an additional tax burden or being forced to live next to an apartment unit with a never-ending series of noisy visitors.The
30、 same story may apply to Uber. Uber is currently in dispute over whether its cars meet the safety and insurance requirement imposed on standard taxis.

What will be talked about in the following paragraphs?A. Existing regulations and laws. B. The downside of Airbnb and Uber.C. Further development of Airbn
34、b and Uber. D. Necessary improvements on current laws.Passage DWind is the movement of air from an area of high pressure to an area of low pressure. In fact, wind exists because the sun unevenly heats the surface of the e arth. As hot air rises, cool air moves in to fill the space. As long as the su
35、n shines, the wind will blow. And as long as the wind blows, people will use it to power their lives. Ancient people used sails to catch the wind and explore the world.
