Coke was introduced by the Coca Cola company in 1886, making it a rather true and tested favorite of generations of people in over 200 countries. This list should give you some ideas on how to get more from your coke than usual.

Coca Cola is an excellent rust buster (除锈剂). If you have a bunch of small rusty objects, put them in coke overnight and give them a good scrub in the morning. Coke helps to break down the rust, making cleaning much easier. Be sure to throw out the used coke when you are done with it or you might be taking a trip to the doctor.

Like the previous item, the citric acid (柠檬酸) in coke makes for an excellent window cleaner. This is especially useful for car windows. Pour a can of coke over the window and rub the window, then wipe it off with a wet cloth to remove any sugary matter from the sugar in the drink. As coke is full of sugar, you should clean the sticky matter off the window glasses, or it will be not a cleaner but a dirt.

For those of you who live in areas where skunk (臭鼬) smells can be an issue from time to time, one can of coke added to water with detergent (清洁剂) really helps to break the smell down. If you have been sprayed, stand in the shower and cover yourself from head to toe with coke — wait for a few minutes, then wash yourself with a shower. Coke is an excellent hair treatment so you get two tips for the price of one with this item!

Pots can sometimes get black on the bottom. The black is almost impossible to remove; this is caused by over-cooking. To remove the black and renew your pot, pour in a can of coke (or as much as you need to cover the blackened area by an inch) and put it on the stove on a low heat. After an hour or so, wash the pot as normal.

24．What does the underlined word ‘‘scrub” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A．Start. B．Cleaning. C．Shake. D．Example.

25．What is important while using coke to clean car windows?

A．Use a dry cloth. B．Rub the window lightly.

C．Don’t pour too much coke. D．Clean the sugary matter completely.

26．For which purpose does coke have to be mixed with other material?

A．To get rid of the black on the pot. B．To break down the rust,

C．To remove smells. D．To clean windows.

27．What type of writing is this text?

A．An advertisement. B．A practical guide.

C．A news report. D．A review.

C

“He is the best choice for goodwill ambassador.” Indian movie fans in China say.

Indian actor Aamir Khan has got his major celebrity status in China. Aamir Khan was in China last week to promote his latest Hindi film Secret Superstar. During his weeklong stay, first in Shanghai and then in Beijing, the Indian actor also found out that he has become a major celebrity in a country where Hollywood’s reach has been traditionally limited.

Some local analysts compare his star status in China to that of Hollywood actors Tom Hanks, Tom Cruise and Leonardo DiCaprio. Others woncler if Khan is an activist actor. Still others describe him as a feminist（女权主义者）. The Chinese media seem to have called him Mishu, or Uncle Aamir. The surprising rise in popularity of the 52-year-old Bollywood star is owing to his striking movies. Al more than 1 million, Khan has the most followers as an Indian on Sin a Weibo, the country’s Twitter-like platform.

Secret Superstar had made more than 400 million yuan（$ 63 million）earlier this week. The story of a teenage Muslim girl’s fight against ugly patriarchy（父权制）to realize her dreams was released in China on Jan 19.

Last year, his film Dangal, inspired by the real journey of an Indian wrestler through a conservative landscape to turn his daughters into world - class athletes, had made nearly 1.3 billion yuan.

In 2011, Khan’s work first got major attention from Chinese moviegoers with Three Idiots, which was released in India much earlier. A statement on India’s orthodox education system, similar to that of China, the Hindi film went along with the local audience. Film critics and fans alike recommended it to their friends.

Some film critics say the education systems, gender discrimination（性别歧视）and domestic violence（家庭暴力）that Secret Superstar shows are among similarities of social issues in India and China. A series of “masterpieces” have made Khan an effective brand in China, in addition to his movie marketing and film devotion.

28. How many movies starred by Aamir Khan are mentioned in the passage?

A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six.

29. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A. Aamir Khan was a feminist.

B. Secret Superstar had made more than S 400 earlier this week.

C. Last year, his film Dangal first got major attention from Chinese moviegoers.

D. Aamir Khan has got his major celebrity status in China.

30. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

A. Aamir Khan’s masterpieces hit China B. Indian movies

C. Secret Superstar D. A famous actor

31. Where can you possibly read this passage?

A. In a popular science magazine. B. In an academic journal.

C. In a newspaper. D. In a tourist brochure.

D

A team of engineers at Harvard University has been inspired by Nature to create the first robotic fly. The mechanical fly has become a platform for a series of new high-tech systems. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.

“It’s extremely important for us to think about this as a whole system and not just a bunch of individual components (零件),” said Robert Wood, the Harvard engineering professor who has been working on the robotic fly project for over a decade. “The added difficulty with such a project is that actually none of those components are off the shelf and so we have to make them all on our own,” he said.

They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, and then has to be matched well to everything it’s connected to,” said Wood. The flight device was built into a set of power, computation, sensing and control systems. Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufactured.

Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect- scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications (应用). “You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots instead,” he said. “So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day to day basis.”

32. What challenge did the engineers have when making the robotic fly?

A. They don’t have enough related knowledge.

B. They are lack of ready-made components.

C. The system is too complex to work.

D. They fail to control all the components.

33. What does the success of the robotic fly prove?

A. Scientists are able to make tiny flying machines.

B. Humans will create a new kind of species for the nature.

C. The flight device will not need so many components.

D. It will help to kill dangerous insects in the nature.

34. What does Wood hope to do with the flying device?

A. To fix the system on other animals. B. To put it to the market for money.

C. To solve more scientific problems. D. To encourage people to learn biology.

35. How does Wood feel about the application of the robotic fly?

A. Worried B. Curious. C. Doubtful. D. Confident.
