In this game, if a team answers a question correctly, their rocket moves forward. This team whose rocket gets to the end first wins.

Then, the teacher can show the answers on a shared video screen.

23．（8分） Summertime has always been my absolute favorite time of the year. When I was in school，I just lived for the long summer holidays when I could play with my friends and my sister all day at our ease. Everyone has different associations with summer. For some，they think of the smell of freshly cut grass，for some it's lying on a beach reading a book and for others it might be the taste of lemonade or ice cream. I am so happy to be spending this summer with my family and childhood friends here in the Highlands of Scotland after a year away in France.
One of my favorite things to do in summer is go to see the Highlands. These events happen all across the Highlands and Islands of Scotland over the summer and are a great chance for friends and families to get together and support the local community. A Highland Games event is a big gathering with food stalls（货摊），fair games for children and sports competitions. Many of the sports are very specific to Scottish tradition such as "caber toss". This is a competition in which the competitors attempt to lift a full-length tree log and throw it into the air. The oldest Highland Games of Scotland are now an iconic（象征性的）part of the Scottish summer.
Summer just would not be complete for me without my favorite fruit-strawberries. Here in the Highlands，strawberries are grown as one of the best-sellers over the summer months and one thing I love to do on a warm summer afternoon is to pick some strawberries to eat with cream at the end of the day. If you come here，I think you will fall in love with them.

24．（8分） Like any good mother, when Karen found out that another baby was on the way, she did what she could to help her 3-year-old son, Michael, prepare for a new baby. Day after day, night after night, Michael sang to his mommy’s tummy（肚子）.
Finally, Michael’s little sister was born. But she was in a very serious condition. With sirens（警报器）howling in the night, the ambulance rushed the baby to St. Mary’s Hospital. The days inched by. The little girl became worse. The pediatric（儿科的）specialists told the parents to prepare for the worst.
Michael kept begging for singing to his sister, but kids are not allowed in the pediatric department at St. Mary’s Hospital. Karen made up her mind to take Michael to see his sister. She dressed him in an oversized suit and marched him into the hospital. He looked like a walking laundry basket, but the head nurse recognized him as a child and shouted, “Get that kid out of here now!” Karen rose up strong, and the usually mild-mannered lady glared steel-eyed into the head nurse’s face. “ He is not leaving until he sings to his sister!”
Karen towed Michael to his sister’s bedside. He gazed at the tiny baby losing the battle to live. And he began to sing. In the pure-hearted voice of a 3-year-old, Michael sang, “You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are grey.” Instantly the baby girl responded. Her pulse rate became calm and steady. Her strained breathing became smoother.
“Keep on singing, Michael,” encouraged Karen with tears in her eyes. “The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping, I dreamed I held you in my arms.” Michael’s little sister relaxed as healing rest seemed to sweep over her. “Keep on singing, Michael.” Tears conquered the face of the nurse. “You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. Please don’t take my sunshine away...”
The next day—the very next day—the little girl was well enough to go home!
1、Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
