10.Four cinemas in the UK
The Kinema,Lincolnshire
It's a wooden building on the outside and a two-screen cinema on the inside,all nesting among pine trees in a tiny village.The Kinema showed its first film in 1922and the first six rows were deckchair (折叠帆布躺椅).Today,it's more richly decorated.
"People come here because it's a fantastic experience,"says manager Philip Jones."Many rooms in the Kinema are simple and not attractive,but we try to remain everything that makes it special."
The Cube,Bristol
It's not really a cinema.It is a not-for-profit cooperative run by volunteers,which has been operating for the last 15years.
They are"unique for what we do,which is to operate seven nights a week and with no funding."They make many things themselves,such as cola and yogurt.
The Broadway,Nottingham
A cinema has been here since the 1960s,when local fashion designer Paul Smith would come to see arty foreign films,which heavily influenced his career choice.Later,he designed the stripy(条纹的) sofas.
The Broadway was previously used as a church,but locals love it for its independent,art house,and DIY spirit.The Broadway also has a right-on restaurant,with locally sourced vegetables and salads,and even serves its own beer.
The Rex,Hertfordshire
It opened to the public in 1938and has been named the most beautiful cinema in the UK.There's a varied program with different films every night.Hot dogs and popcorn are banned.And a real person answers the phone when you call.
People speak very highly of the Rex.So do go,if only once,to see just how a cinema should be run.
25.In Philip Jones'opinion,the Kinema may attract people whoD.
A.live in the nearby villages
B.are fond of rich decorations
C.are interested in wooden structures
D.want to experience something special
26.We know from the text that the BroadwayB.
A.was built in 1960
B.owns a restaurant
C.is next to a church
D.was designed by Paul Smith

A.are non-profit cooperatives
B.show arty foreign films
C.offer homemade drinks
D.use stripy sofas
28.Which of the following has the longest history?A

17.When building houses,people used to think about not only the climate of the areas but also the building materials and the fashions for their houses.However,since electricity became more and more expensive,people began to pay much more attention to the energy they could get for their houses and the new ways they could find to protect their houses from both cold and heat.
Houses of an old yet new type have been widely built.In some parts of the world,people share their houses with their livestock (家畜).During cold weather,they gather their cows,goats,or other animals and keep them on the first floor of their houses.The reasons are that the animals can be protected from the cold and that they can help to heat the houses as well.The body heat given off by the animals rises to the second floor of the houses,where people live.By sharing their houses with their livestock,people gain a source of heat.
People who live in or near cities do not usually keep livestock.However,home builders use the fact that heat rises.This natural law can be used in building houses in these areas.Instead of keeping livestock on the first floor,builders fill it with large rocks.As they are open to the sun's rays during cold weather,these rocks take in heat.They also give off the heat,and,of course,the warm air rises into the living areas of the houses.So these houses are energy saving.
House building becomes a great challenge to building designers and energy engineers.They try to meet this challenge by learning from old traditions and by using modern technology.And someday in the future,people will be able to live in more energy saving houses.
32.What did people begin to consider as electricity was no longer cheap?B
A.The climate of their areas  
B.The energy for their houses
C.The fashions for their houses
D.The building materials for their houses
33.People in some areas gain a source of heat byA.
A.Keeping their livestock downstairs
B.Protecting their livestock from the cold
C.Sharing their houses only with their cows
D.Living on the second floor with their livestock
34.The underlined words"natural law"in the third paragraph refer to the fact thatD.
A.Heat raises the temperature in the houses
B.Heat increases the temperature of rocks
C.Heat goes up if temperature is raised
D.Heat goes in the upward direction
35.From the passage,we can infer thatB.
A.People will no longer consider building materials in the future
B.Energy saving buildings will become more popular in the future
C.Almost all people will move into the houses heated by large rocks
D.Energy engineers will devote themselves only to modern technology.

12.I had worried myself sick over Simon's mother coming to see me.I was a new teacher,and I gave an honest account of the students'work.In Simon's case,the grades were awfully low.He couldn't read his own handwriting.But he was a bright student.He discussed adult subjects with nearly adult comprehension.His work in no way reflected his abilities.
So when Simon's mother entered the room,my palms (手掌心) were sweating.I was completely unprepared for her kisses on both my cheeks."I came to thank you,"she said,surprising me beyond speech.Because of me,Simon had become a different person.He talked of how he loved me,he had begun to make friends,and for the first time in his twelve years,he had recently spent an afternoon at a friend's house.She wanted to tell me how grateful she was for the self-respect I had developed in her son.She kissed me again and left.
I sat,stunned,for about half an hour,wondering what had just happened.How did I make such a life-changing difference to that boy without even knowing it?What I finally came to remember was one day,several months before,when some students were giving reports in the front of the class,Jeanne spoke quietly,and to encourage her to raise her voice,I had said,"Speak up.Simon is the expert on this.He is the only one you have to convince,and he can't hear you in the back of the room."That was it.From that day on,Simon had sat up straighter,paid more attention,smiled more,and became happy.And it was all because he happened to be the last kid in the last row.The boy who most needed praise was the one who took the last seat that day.
It taught me the most valuable lesson over the years of my teaching career,and I'm thankful that it came early and positively.A small kindness can indeed make a difference.

36.We can infer that when Simon's mother entered the room,the writer feltB.
A.satisfied
B.nervous
C.happy
D.surprised
37.Why did Simon's mother come to visit her son's teacher?B.
A.Because she worried about her son's poor work.
B.Because she wanted to show her gratitude to the teacher.
C.Because Simon asked her to do so.
D.Because she wanted to know her son's performance in the school.
38.What the teacher said in paragraph 3is intended toA.
A.encourage Jeanne to speak louder
B.encourage Simon to work hard
C.ask Jeanne to convince Simon
D.tell the students that Simon was expert on that.

B.tell teachers how to be kind to students
C.advise the readers to be kind to others.
