Xie Xiaohua has been working as a special education teacher for the past 26 years. Because of her adherence(坚守) to her work, she has won the heart of hundreds of children in special needs and is called Mum Xiaohua by many of them.
“It is my greatest happiness and achievement to care for them as they grow up, ” said the 48-year-old Xie, who has been working at a special education school, since her graduation from a normal school in 1996. Fully aware of the difference between special education and general education, Xie provides specialized care to each student according to their physical conditions and helps them with learning, dining and accommodation. For example, she had taken the responsibility of carrying a student with physical disability to restrooms, canteens, classrooms and dormitory for nine years until the student graduated from the school.
In 2003, Xie’s workload became heavier after she was assigned to work at the school’s rehabilitation(康复) center, which was established that year. To ensure every child receive scientific and targeted rehabilitation training, she worked out specific plans for them. For children with mental disability, Xie patiently coached them to master basic skills of taking care of themselves in daily life. She also spent lots of time training children with hearing and speech problems to work on their pronunciation.
Starting in 2015, the school launched a campaign of offering door-to-door education to students who could not attend school because of severe physical disabilities. Xie was among over 30 teachers tasked with tutoring(辅导) those students. The teachers have walked over 60,000 kilometers over the past seven years during the campaign because many villages where the students live are located in mountainous areas.
“Although we do feel tired sometimes, we feel our work is valuable after witnessing their progress, even just a little bit,” Xie said.
24. What do we know about Xie’s students?

C. Caring and responsible. D. Efficient and enthusiastic.
27. What is the best title for the passage?

School is a place that is familiar to everyone. Let’s find out what American students do in school.
An official dance party is held about twice a year in high schools in the United States. When the final football game is over for the season there is a homecoming party. Sometimes, students select a king from among the football players, and a queen from among the girls. Every student can attend and have fun with the help of their teachers. Sometimes, to the surprise of everyone, students, who devote all their time to study, come to the party in a beautiful dress.
The most exciting party that students can go to would have to be a prom(毕业舞会). Students attend it in dresses similar to those of Hollywood stars and the atmosphere is comparable to an Oscar Award party. Since such a party is for seniors, students usually stay up the night trying to enjoy their last year in high school.
In American schools, instead of the teachers going to different rooms, students have their own class schedules and go to different classrooms. When a student is away from school, they must have an explanation for being away along with the signature(签名) of a parent. The signed paper is then handed in to the school office. American students also enjoy a number of activities out of school like cheerleading(拉拉队), student government and a host of different sports.
28．Whose presence at the homecoming party can make others amazed?
A．The king and the queen acted by students. B．The laziest student in study.
C．The teacher who offers advice. D．Students who study hardest.
29．Why do students hold the prom till the next morning?
A．Because they would like to dance and sang madly.
B．Because this is the only chance that they get dressed like film stars.
C．Because students make it as exciting as an awarding party of Oscar.
D．Because this perhaps is the last chance that they can enjoy their school life.
30．According to the passage, American students in school ________.
A．study in the same classroom B．have the same class with each other
C．attend different classes in different places D．wait for their teachers in their class
31．What is this passage mainly about?
A．The organizing of dance parties. B．Homecoming party.
C．How to ask for a leave. D．School life in America.
D
Rainforests provide much of the world’s oxygen. People have been trying to protect them for years. But another type of forest, the cloud forest, is just as important to humans.
These forests are at the tops of mountains, generally near the equator (赤道). These wet, wooded mountaintops are mainly in African and Central and South American countries. They are called “cloud forests” because their height allows for the formation of clouds among the trees. The trees in these forests pull water out of the clouds. The water gathers on the leaves and falls into small rivers below, which flow into towns at the bottom of the mountain. The yearly rainfall in these areas is about 180 centimetres. Cloud forests can pull in up to 60 percent of that. The water is important to the plants and the people in the area. It helps them survive.
Cloud forests are also home to countless species of plants that can’t be found anywhere else. One small cloud forest has as many types of plants as there are in all of Europe. In fact, there are so many that scientists haven’t made a complete list of them yet.
These forests are being destroyed at an increasing speed. Trees are being cut down, and roads are being built in their place. Some people have a goal to get government money to protect the forests. But they have had little success so far. Another way is to take the place of the destroyed plants with new ones. That, too, has been difficult because the plants are so special. There’s plenty of work to be done, but saving the cloud forests is still possible with creative solutions.
32．Where can you probably find cloud forests?
A．In North America. B．Far from the equator.
C．In an African country. D．At the foot of mountains.
33．What is the main idea of paragraph 3?
A．Europe is short of plant types. B．Scientists are working on a list.
C．Cloud forests are getting smaller. D．Cloud forests house many plants.
34．What will be discussed in the following part of the text?
A．Ways to protect cloud forests. B．Goals of cloud forest protectors.
C．Difficulties in planting new trees. D．Successes of getting wide support.
35．Where can we probably find the text?
A．In a storybook. B．In a travel guide.
C．In a chemistry textbook. D．In a geography magazine.
