My family lived in Triumph, Idaho, the USA, an old mining town with a population of 33. All of the kids at my age were boys. People of all ages always looked out for me, but they also brought me some embarrassment.
I was born at home. The doctor overseeing my arrival was a family friend. Dad had then been a soldier serving in the navy and figured we should save some money.
At first, my parents didn't have a name for me. My name on my birth certificate still read Baby Girl. And that’s what they called me until I was almost 4. When they planned our first train trip to Mexico for vacation, we needed passports, which made it easier to come up with a name. My father liked the sound of Picabo, an old Native American settlement in the south. My mother and father agreed on Picabo.
As a child, I was afraid of the dark, but it was manageable. Another fear was the Rhode Island Red. Each time I went out to the hen house to get eggs, he always pecked(啄) me as if I had stolen the eggs laid by his lover. I began carrying a stick to keep him away. However, he was always following me. Later we became good friends. I also liked playing hide-and-seek with him.
Our house was one of four that stood next to each other on an upper street in town. It was a one-story white cottage with no basement and no foundation, but Dad dug a cellar(地窖). All of our heat came from a wood-burning stove, where our food was cooked over an open flame. Both of my parents were great cooks.
24.Why did people in the town take care of the author?
A.She was the only girl of the same age.
B.She was the daughter of a miner.
C.Her father was a doctor’s friend.
D.Her parents were living in the town.
25.Why did the parents decide to name the author?
A.To have the sound of Picabo.
B.To go on a foreign trip.
C.To make an agreement with each other.
D.To realize the author’s wish.
26.What do we know about the Rhode Island Red?
A.He always stole the eggs.
B.He loved following the author's parents.
C.He was a rooster friend of the author’s.
D.He played hide-and-seek with his lover.
27.What might the author think of her childhood life?
A.Boring. B.Inspiring. C.Embarrassing. D.Pleasing.

In Britain, you can find that many social customs are related to hats. If a male guest was calling on his friend, after entering the room, he must take off his hat first. If you are going to attend a dinner party at your relative's or friend's place, when you enter the dining room you should not only take the hat off, but also hang it up or put it on the chair nearby, instead of just putting your hat on the table. When you meet an acquaintance on the street, if you are a female, you only need to nod and smile or say hello to him. But if you are a male, when you meet a female acquaintance, generally you need to take off your hat and bow to her.
This etiquette (礼仪) is also reflected in the English language. For example, the English idiom “hat in hand”just means very respectful. And another idiom “take one's hat off to (someone)”, its extending meaning is “admire someone”.
In addition, there is a kind of black hat in Britain which is called “bowler hat”(It is said that the hat was designed by the London hat-makers Thomas and William Bowler during 1849). It was very popular between gentlemen and businessmen and also became a status symbol of British men. If one wears a bowler hat which is new and straight, people would think highly of him; on the contrary, people would look down on the one who wears a worn bowler. There is a phrase “a bad hat”in English, which means a bad guy. Moreover, when people describe something which is black, they say “as black as a hat”. It may be assumed that it's related to that bowler hat.
28.What does a British man do when he greets a lady?
A.He shakes hands with her. B.He hugs and kisses her cheek.
C.He smiles and waves to her. D.He takes off his hat and bows to her.
29.In British culture, you "take off your hat" to show _______.
A.satisfaction B.thankfulness C.respect D.warmth
30.What do you know about the bowler hat?
A.It has a history of more than 200 years.
B.It represents the social position of a British man.
C.It was first worn by a wealthy businessman.
D.It's no longer popular among young people.
31.Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Britain's hat culture B.The bowler hat in Britain
C.British social etiquette D.The hat in English language
D
Zebra mussels are small, freshwater mollusks(软体动物) that live in eastern Europe. In 1988, however, zebra mussels were sighted far from home. They had suddenly appeared in the United States. It is believed that they were brought over on a ship from the Black Sea. Once they were in the United States, they rapidly took over. By 1990, they had spread throughout the Great Lakes, and by 2008, they were in bodies of water in at least 24 of the 50 states. In only 20 years, these tiny creatures had made their way halfway across the country.
Zebra mussels have caused a lot of damage in every ecosystem（生态系统） they live in. They take over the habitats of native mollusks and fish and eat their food. They affect humans by attaching
themselves to boats and structures in the water. Zebra mussels can destroy wood, concrete, and even steel. They sink buoys(航标)and slow down ships by attaching to them in enormous numbers. They are numerous (许多的)enough to block water pipes leading to and from power and water plants. Zebra mussels also pollute beaches, and their sharp shells (壳)are a danger to swimmers.
There is no single effective way to deal with zebra mussels. They can be removed with scrapers, hot water, and air pressure. They can also be prevented from attaching by using chemicals, barriers, and coatings. Power station and water treatment plants spend hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to deal with them, but the zebra mussels can always return. Unfortunately, zebra mussels are here to stay. Hopefully, one day researchers will find a way to truly combat this invasion(入侵).
32. What happened to zebra mussels in 1990?
A. They spread throughout 24 states in America.
B. They disappeared from the Black Sea.
C. They were brought to America.
D. They came to the Great Lakes in large numbers.
33. What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. People's hate for zebra mussels.
B. The harm caused by zebra mussels.
C. The increase in the number of zebra mussels.
D. The life of zebra mussels in their new home.
34. What does the underlined word" combat” in the last paragraph mean?
A. change B. describe C. stop D. study
35. What can we learn from the text?
A. It is hard to get rid of the zebra mussels.
B. Zebra mussels will run out of food in the future.
C. The number of native mollusks increased greatly.
D. Power stations refuse to use chemicals to remove zebra mussels.
