22、Henry was a very vain（虚荣的）man and he spent plenty of time looking at himself in the mirror. He even went to the barber’s shop every week to have his hair cut. He was nearly fifty, but he didn’t want people to know his age, so he always tried his best to make himself look younger. He also spent most of his money on clothes. He believed that every woman thought he was handsome. He did not have women friends but he had an explanation（解释）for this, “I’m so excellent that the women can’t make a perfect match with（和……般配）me. That’s why they don’t make friends with me.”

One day he bought a new special shirt from a high-fashion men’s shop. It was very expensive. When he got home and took it out of the box, he found a note in it. The note said, “Please write to me and give me a photo of yourself.” The note was signed “Julia” and there was an address to write to. Henry wrote to Julia at once, telling her about himself. Then he put a photo of himself in the envelope（信封）and posted it.

A week passed and then he received a reply. He opened it quickly, hoping there would be a photo of a beautiful woman inside and that she would like to make friends with him.

However, it was very disappointing（令……失望的）to him. The letter said, “Dear Henry, thank you for writing to me. I work in the clothes factory. Everyone in the factory wants to know what kind of fool will buy such an ugly shirt.”

23、   As I enjoyed the soft sunshine in the pool, my 8-year-old daughter swam up behind me.

"Guess who, Mommy?" she said.

"No idea. Who is this mystery (神秘的) person?" I joked.

The pair of us talked and laughed together for the rest of the afternoon.

"Remember this," I told myself. "You are happy, right here, right now."

Fast forward a few months, and my thoughts sounded different.

"Just keep going," I would think, or, "How many sleeps until the weekend?"

I didn't like what I was like—someone sleepwalking (梦游) through the week, running on coffee and too tired at night to do anything but watch TV. I thought the Christmas break would recognize (使再次充满活力) me, making me ready to take on another year of early starts. But I had to listen to my heart.

My patient husband and friends had listened to me going over the decision for six months, but the time for talking was over. It was time to make my choice: My daughter needed me and I needed her.

When she was really young, I loved the freedom of going to work as the sun was rising, happy that my family was still sound asleep. Then later, my daughter would set her alarm (闹钟) so she could wake up early with me to chat in the dark together.

The morning I planned to tell everyone I was quitting (放弃) my job, we sat together on the couch. I told her how nervous I was about sharing my news in a few hours' time. Stroking (抚摸) her hair, I asked my daughter what she thought about my decision. "We'll be so much happier, Mommy," she said.

Life is never simply a choice between job and family. Ask anyone, and family always comes first.

Besides, I'm not disappearing— there are plenty of projects to keep me fulfilled.

Who knows what's ahead?

Nobody knows what the future holds, but when it comes to my own, I can make sure it will be filled with long afternoons in the pool with my daughter.

D.She asked her daughter to wake up early every morning.

【3】Why did the writer want to quit her job?

C.She was treated unfairly at work.

“What else can I be?” answered the uncle. "I live in a world of fools! Merry Christmas! What's Christmas time to you? It's a time for paying bills without money.

“Uncle! Please don't say that!” said the nephew. “I've always thought of Christmas time as a good time, a kind, and a charitable happy time. And so, Uncle Christmas has never put any gold or silver in my pocket, but I think it has done me good. And it will do me good. And I say, God bless it!”

“No.” said Scrooge.
