20．When I was 12，all I wanted was a signet （图章） ring．They were the"in"thing and it seemed every girl except me had one．On my 13th birthday，my Mum gave me a signet ring with my initials（姓名首字母） carved into it．I was in heaven．
What made it even more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn't being"replaced"．We'd been burnt out in fires that swept through our area earlier that year and had lost everything-so most of the"new"stuff （东西） we got was really just to replace what we'd lost．But not my ring．My ring was new．
Then，only one month later，I lost it．I took it off before bed and it was missing in the morning．I was sad and searched everywhere for it．But it seemed to have disappeared．Eventually，I gave up and stopped looking for it．And two years later，we sold the house and moved away．
Years passed，and a couple of moves later，I was visiting my parents'when Mum told me that she had something for me．It wasn't my birthday，nor was it Easter or Christmas or any other gift-giving occasion．Mum noticed my questioning look．"You'll recognize this one，"she said，smiling．
Then she handed me a small ring box．I took it from her and opened it to find my beautiful signet ring inside．The family who had bought our house 13 years earlier had recently decided to do some redecorations，which included replacing the carpets．When they pulled the carpet up in my old bedroom，they found the ring．As it had my initials carved into it，they realized who owned the ring．They'd had it professionally cleaned up by a jeweler before sending it to my mother．And it still fits me．

1．A Swiss airplane powered only by energy from the sun left from Abu Dhabi early on March 9，2015．Its creators hope the plane will make the first around-the-world journey without any fuel（燃料）．
The plane is called Solar Impulse 2．It has one seat and is made from carbon fiber．The plane weighs only as much as a car but its wings are wider than a Boeing 747．The plane's wings stretch 72meters across．Those wings include 17，000solar units （太阳能板） that collect the sun's energy．The energy allows the plane to fly day and night．
Two Swiss scientists built the plane．One is Bertrand Piccard，also an explorer，who made the first non-stop flight around the world in a balloon．The other is Andre Borschberg who is an engineer and trained fighter pilot．In their opinion，they are not trying to change the airplane industry．Instead，they want to show that new energy sources and technologies can make what is impossible possible．"We want to show we can fly day and night in a plane without a drop of fuel．''Mr．Piccard said．
Some parts of the trip will require the pilots to be in the small plane for five to six days and nights on end．So it is good that the pilot's seat is also a toilet．
The plane begins its tour in the United Arab Emirates．The pilots also plan stops in Oman，India，and China．They will cross the Pacific Ocean，stop in the United States，and continue over southern Europe or North Africa．They plan to arrive back in the United Arab Emirates in late July or early August．Internet viewers can go to the Solar Impulse website to see the plane's location and listen to broadcasts from the pilots．

25．What do we know about the plane"Solar Impulse 2"？A．
A．It can be powered from the sunlight．B．It looks like a car with long wings．
C．It can collect energy day and night．D．It can fly without any energy．
26．The two scientists build the solar powered plane toD．
A．fly around the world for the first time
B．change the airplane industry on purpose
C．train the pilot to try the solar powered plane
D．test the new energy and technologies on plane
27．The phrase in paragraph 4"on end"is similar toC in meaning．
A．frequently
B．occasionally
C．continuously
D．regularly
28．Which of the following is Not right according to the passage？D．
A．The plane will complete the world tour in 4-5months．
B．The plane can be tracked on the Solar Impulse website．
C．The pilot aboard will broadcast to the Internet viewers．
D．The flight tour begins from east to west around the world．
15．The Ramayana tells the story of a battle between the Hindu （印度教的） god Vishnu and a demon （魔鬼） called Ravana．None of the gods could fight Ravana because of a promise they had foolishly made earlier．So Vishnu decided to be reborn as a man，and then he would be able to fight Ravana．
So Vishnu was born as the prince Rama．Rama was supposed to be king when his father died，but at the last minute his father decided to make his brother king instead．Rama and his other brother Lakshmana and Rama's wife Sita went away to live a simple life in the forest，where the demon Ravana's sister fell in love with Rama and tried to get Rama to leave Sita．When Rama said no，Ravana's sister attacked him，but Rama and his brother Lakshmana fought her off．
The demon went back to her brother Ravana on the island of Lanka and complained to him that Rama had attacked her．Also，Ravana's sister told him how beautiful Rama's wife Sita was．So he went to the forest to see for himself．
When Ravana got to the forest，he found itwas true．So he took Sita back to Lanka．Sita was very sad there and missed Rama very much．
Rama and his brother Lakshmana needed help to rescue Sita，so they went to see the king of the monkeys，Hanuman，who had the magic power to make himself bigger or smaller．Hanuman found Sita on the island of Lanka and told her that Rama was coming to save her．Sita was very happy，but then the demon Ravana caught Hanuman and set his tail on fire!In the end，however，Hanuman escaped and set fire to the whole island of Lanka．
Hanuman went back to the forest and got Rama and Lakshmana，and they all went together with the whole monkey army to attack the island of Lanka．The monkeys made a bridge over to the island．There was a terrible battle，but finally Rama killed the demon Ravana．

12．I was desperately nervous about becoming car-free．But eight months ago our car was hit by a passing vehicle and it was destroyed．No problem，I thought：we'll buy another．But the insurance payout didn't even begin to cover the costs of buying a new car-I worked out that，with the loan （贷款） we'd need plus petrol，insurance，parking permits and tax，we would make a payment as much as£600 a month．
  And that's when I had my fancy idea．Why not just give up having a car at all？I live in London．We have a railway station behind our house，a tube station 10 minutes'walk away，and a bus stop at the end of the street．A new car club had just opened in our area，and one of its shiny little red Peugeots was parked nearby．If any family in Britain could live without a car，I reasoned，then surely we were that family．
  But my new car-free idea，sadly，wasn't shared by my family．My teenage daughters were horrified．What would their friends think about our family being"too poor to afford a car"？（I wasn't that bothered what they thought，and I suggested the girls should take the same approach．）
  My friends，too，were ast onished at our plan．What would happen if someone got seriously ill overnight and needed to go to hospital？（an ambulance） How would the children get to and from their many events？（buses and trains） People smiled as though this was another of my mad ideas，before saying they were sure I'd soon realize that a car was a necessity．
  Eight months on，I wonder whether we'll ever own a car again．The idea that you"have to"own a car，especially if you live in a city，is all in the mind．I live-and many other citizens do too-in a place that has never been better served by public transport，and yet car ownership has never been higher．We worry about rising car costs，but we'd be better off asking something much more basic：do I really need a car？Certainly the answer is no，and I'm a lot richer because I dared to ask the question．
24．The author decided to live a car-free life partly becauseC．
A．most families chose to go car-free        
B．he was hurt in a terrible car accident
C．the cost of a new car was too much    
D．the traffic jam was unbearable for him

B．Life without a car is a little bit hard．
C．His life gets improved without a car．

4．Dear Highlights，
       My sister is always in a bad mood，which gets me in a bad mood．What should I do？
Tessa，Virginia
    It can be hard to be around someone who is in a bad mood．Since you can't change another person's mood，try to focus on what you can control：your own mood and reaction．
    You might find it easier to stay in a good mood if you leave your sister alone when she feels grumpy （脾气暴躁的）．The next time she is in a bad mood，go to a quiet place in your house．Read，exercise，draw，listen to music-do something that makes you feel happy．
    Your parents might have some good suggestions for you，too．
Dear Highlights，
    I play soccer，but sometimes I play badly．How can I do better？
Jarom，Utah
    To be good at anything，determination and practice are important．Listen closely to your coach，watch other players，then practice，practice，practice!Professional athletes continue to practice their sports each day，knowing that if they start to get lazy，they won't keep or develop their skills．
    In addition to practicing with teammates，you can work on drills on your own．
    Learning more about the sport may help too．Your coach can likely direct you to some good resources on skills development．
Dear Highlights，
    I was moved up a grade a few years ago．Now，almost everyone in my previous grade asks me why．It wouldn't be a problem，except some boys ask over and over just to be annoying．What do I do？
Allison （by e-mail）
    If you're sure that they are trying to be annoying，you might respond with something humorous．For example，you could say something like"They told me that the lunch lines would be shorter．"Use the situation to turn annoying questions into something to laugh about．
32．What should Tessa do when her sister gets bad-tempered？C
A．Accompany her．B．Change her mood．
C．Try some happy things．D．Leave her in a quiet place．
33．When talking about Jarom's problem，Highlights especially stresses the importance ofB．
A．determination        B．practice   C．team spirit        D．the coach's help   
34．What's Allison's problem？C
A．She cannot get along well with her classmates．
B．Some boys in her class annoy her on purpose．
C．She cannot stand being asked the same question．
D．Her friends cannot accept that she moved up a grade．
35．What can we learn from the answer to Allison's question？D
A．Laughter is the best medicine．B．He who laughs last laughs longest．
C．A sense of humor makes you easy-going．
D．Humor can ease the tension in many situations．
