It was a hot，humid day，and my brother Walt and I had decided that the only way to survive it would be to go swimming in a deep swimming hole across Mr．Blickez’s pasture(牧场)and through some woods．

The only problem with our plan was that this pasture was guarded by a huge，mean Hereford bull．Mr．Biickez had told us that Elsie was the meanest bull in the township，maybe even the county，and we believed him．But the hotter it got，the more we thought there was something，fishy about his claim．For one thing，we remembered Mr．Blickez liked telling tall tales；for another，Elsie seemed like an odd name for a bull．

Finally，I talked Mom into asking permission for us to walk through the pasture，but then another problem surfaced．Mom said she would talk to Mr．Blickez if we would take our cousin Joanie along with us．Joanie was almost two years older than me and a head taller．If her teasing ever got around my grade school，it would be all over for me．In fact，I still had a headache from a quarrel with her that morning．“I'm not going swimming with that dumb girl cousin．”I told my mom．

“Either Joanie goes with，or you stay home alone，”Mom said in her serious tone. I gave in and we set out．On our way across the pasture，Walt yelled suddenly．Elsie had approached him quietly and was licking(舔) his back．Joanie and I dove under the wire fence，but while I was on the ground I looked up and saw that Elsie wasn't a big mean bull after a11．She was going to keep licking my brother’s back as long as he stood still．

We had many good days growing up and visiting our secret swimming hole guarded by the so-called “big mean bull”．And as it turned out，for a girl cousin，Joanie hasn’t been too bad．She’s been one of my best friends over the years．

24．What’s the meaning of the underline word“fishy”in Paragraph 2?

A．Funny B．Interesting． C．Doubtful D．Believable．

A．His mother insisted on his cousin going with him．

B．His cousin made jokes on him in his grade schoo1．

C．He quarreled with his cousin and had a headache．

D．His mother failed to ask permission for him．

26．What does the author think of Elsie in the end?

A．Aggressive． B．Unkind．

C．Bad-tempered． D．Friendly．

27．What’s the passage mainly about?

A．The bull guarding Mr.Blickez’s farm．

B．The story of visiting the swimming hole．

C．How friendly the so-called mean bull was．

D．How the author changed his attitude to Joanie．

Last year my summer holiday was spoiled by my bringing along a modern convenience that was too convenient for my own good：the iPad．Instead of looking at nature，I checked my e-mail．Instead of paddling a small boat，I followed my Twitter feed(推特简讯)．Instead of reading great novels．I stuck to reading four newspapers each morning．I was behaving as if I were still in the office．My body was on vacation，but my head wasn’t．

So this year I made up my mind to try something different：withdrawal from the Internet. I knew it wouldn’t be easy，since I'm bad at self-contro1．But I was determined．I started by giving the iPad to my wife．

The cellphone signal at our house was worse than in the past，making my attempts at cheating an experience in frustration(沮丧)．I was trapped，forced to go through with my plan．Largely breaking away from e-mail，Twitter and my favorite newspaper websites，I had few ways to connect to the world except for the radio—and how much radio can one listen to，really? I had to do what I had planned to do all along：read books．

This experience has had a happy ending．With determination and the strong support of my wife，I won in my vacation struggle against the Internet，realizing finally that it was I，not the iPad，that was the problem．I knew I had won when we passed a Starbucks and my wife asked if I wanted to stop to use the Wi-Fi．“I don’t need it，”I said．

However, as we return to post-vacation life，a harder test begins：Can I continue when I’m back at work?

There are times when the need to know what’s being said right now is great．I have no intention of giving up my convenience completely．But I hope to resist the temptation to check my e-mail every five minutes，which leads to checking my Twitter feed and a website or two．

I think a vacation is supposed to help you rest your brain to become more productive：Here I hope this one worked．

28．What do we know about the author’s last summer vacation?

A．He was determined to enjoy the beautiful view．

B．His iPad ruined his plan of finishing a great novel．

C．He hated himself for acting as if he were working on vacation．

D．He felt satisfied that he had stuck to his usual timetable．

29 What did the author do to keep away from the Internet this year?

A．He cut off his cellphone signal．

B．He handed his iPad to his wife．

C．He refused to cheat in his house．

D．He listened to the radio most of the time．

30．When back at work，the author will probably choose to_______.

A．keep control of when and how to use the Internet

B．continue to road more and more books

C．stay away from the Internet for ever

D．stop checking what is being said right now completely

31．What is the
