21、A group of swans flew down to a beach where a crow(乌鸦) was jumping around. The crow watched them with disdain(鄙视).
“You have no flying skills at all!” he said to the swans. “All you can do is to move your wings. Can you turn over in the air? No, that’s beyond you. Let’s have a flying competition. I’ll show you what real flying is!”
One of the swans, a strong young male, took up the challenge. The crow flew up and began to show his skills. He flew in circles, performed other flying tricks, and then came down and looked proudly at the swan.
Now it was the swan’s turn. He flew up, and began flying over the sea. The crow flew after him, making all kinds of comments(评价) about his flying. They flew on and on till they couldn’t see the land and there was nothing but water on all sides. The crow was making fewer and fewer comments. He was now so exhausted that he found it hard to stay in the air, and had to struggle to keep himself from falling into the water.
The swan pretended(假装) not to notice, and said, “Why do you keep touching the water, brother? Is that another trick?”
“No,” said the crow. He knew he had lost the competition. “I’m in trouble because of my pride! If you don’t help me, I’ll lose my life…”

Once there was a man traveling in a faraway village.As he was passing the elephants,he suddenly stopped.He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg.No chains(锁链),no cages.It was clear that the elephants could,at any time,break away from their ropes but for some reason,they did not.
He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn’t try to get away.“Well,”the trainer said,“when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and,at that age,it’s enohgh to hold them.As they grow up,they still believe they cannot break away.They believe the rope can hold them,so they never try to break free.”
How could it be?These animals could at any time break free from their ropes.But because they were always stuck right where they were,they believed they couldn’t.

23、What is soil? It is the skin of the Earth. It supports all forms of our life. Nearly all our food comes from the soil. Some of us eat meat, some eat vegetables, but most animals live on plants. If there are no plants, we will have no vegetables, no animals and no meat.
Plants grow in soil with a dark colour. The dark soil is humus (腐殖土壤). Dead leaves, dead plants and animals’ waste make it, but it takes a long time. When the humus has been made, plants can grow well in it.
All soil needs food. Animals’ waste is the best food for the soil, but chemical fertilizers (化肥) are also very useful. The same crops should not be grown in the same place every year. A change of crops and the use of a good fertilizer will keep the land in good condition.
When the soil is dry, the wind blows it away. Sometimes heavy rain carries the humus down to a river. People should grow more and more trees and grass to stop wind from carrying the humus away. It takes hundreds of years to make humus, so we must save every bit of it. Without soil, how can we live?
【1】From the first paragraph, we can know ________.
A.all animals eat plants
B.most animals eat meat
C.all our food comes from plants
D.people, animals and plants all live on soil
【2】Which is the best food for soil?
A.Animals’ waste.
B.Dead plants.
C.Dead leaves.
D.Chemical fertilizers.
【3】To keep the land in good condition, we should ________.
a. grow the same crops in the same place
b. grow different crops in the same place
c. use a good fertilizer
d. never use a fertilizer
A.a & c
B.b & c
C.a & d
D.b & d
【4】Which of the following is NOT true?
A.Soil is the skin of the Earth.
B.Humus helps plants grow well.
C.It takes a hundred years to make humus.
D.Growing trees and plants can help keep the soil.
【5】Which of the following is the best title?
A.Plants and animals
B.Soil and waste
C.Soil and food
D.Humans and food
24、Last Friday, I agreed to meet some friends at 6:00 p.m. in a coffee shop. The weather was sunny, so I decided to walk there. I arrived ten minutes early.
