A
A child genius(天才) is someone who at a very early age shows extraordinary skill in one or more areas. Emily Bear is such a child. She has performed at Carnegie Hall, the White House, world-class shows, and on an album (唱片集) produced by Quincy Jones — all before the age of eleven.
Most children at Emily Bear’s age are playing video games or getting together with friends for a weekend of movies and fun. But the young performer is instead directing her attention to her music. You can find her preparing for her next television appearance, writing songs, performing in public or sharing the recording studio with famous musicians. Among them is Quincy Jones, who worked with Emily on her new album “Diversity.” Emily says working with Quincy Jones was one of the most exciting events in her life.
Emily Bear was born and raised in Rockford, Illinois. She was already singing and playing the piano when she was two years old. At the age of six, she was invited to play the piano on the Ellen DeGeneres television show. Her performance was such a hit that she was invited back to the show five more times.
Emily Bear is in high demand to play at performing arts centers around the world and has become quite a world traveler. She said, “I love traveling. I’ve seen China and Italy and France and London and Switzerland and Vienna. Actually, we’re going with Quincy this summer to Switzerland for the Montreux Jazz Festival.” The young musician composed(作曲) all of the songs on her new album “Diversity.” This includes the song “Q”, which she wrote in honor of Quincy Jones.
Although her life is very busy, she still enjoys getting together with friends, watching movies and answering fan mail.

A. go sightseeing B. accompany Quincy
C. give performances D. receive advanced studies
24. On what purpose did Emily write the song “Q”?

Last week I went to visit my relatives. When I reached London, I found my plane to Newcastle had been cancelled due to bad weather.
The airline was helpful—offering me a choice between a night in a hotel or a six-hour bus ride to my destination. Not knowing whether a flight to Newcastle would happen in the next two days, I chose the bus ride.
I stored all my baggage in the luggage space of the bus, thinking I would not need anything on the journey.
The young lady sitting beside me could see how tired I was and asked me if anyone would be meeting me on my arrival.
I realized that I had left my cell phone in my bag and had no way to contact my relatives. They would be waiting for me at the airport about five hours before the bus got to Newcastle, not knowing what had happened. Without hesitation, the young lady offered me the use of her cell phone.
When the bus made a rest stop, she asked me if I was getting out. I replied that I wouldn’t as I still had sandals (凉鞋) on, and bare feet weren’t suitable for the cold weather. When she got back on, she’d bought me some tea and a packet of sweets to eat.
When we eventually arrived in Newcastle, the woman checked that someone was there to meet me. I asked her to wait a moment while I got my purse to repay her, but when I loop she had gone. I was unable to even express my thanks to her.
25. We can learn from the passage that the author ______.
A. was late for the plane to Newcastle
B. planned to meet his relatives in London
C. lost his cell phone when travelling in Britain
D. probably went to London from a warm place
