21、   "Let's go wrestling, Dad!" 《摔跤吧, 爸爸!》was one of the Top 10 movies in 2017. It tells a true story about an Indian man and his two daughters. His name's Mahayir. In real life, he is called "the father of Indian women wrestling" because thousands of girls across India have been supported to take up wrestling with his efforts.

A very famous Indian actor—Aamir Khan (阿米尔汗),  played the role of Mahavir in the movie. It was an unusual experience for him. Aamir Khan was very serious about his character and he tried to make this character close to the true story. In order to act well, he needed to put on weight to be very fat and then did sports to be very strong in a short time.

Aanir Khan started to eat a lot every day before making the movie. He ate at least 5 meals a day including much junk food. He became too fat to run quickly.

It is simple to be fat but difficult to be strong. Aamir Khan invited many coaches to train him to lose weight and it took him a few months to be strong. He must eat less food and drink more water. Strength training is also important. This kind of physical training is very boring. He had to lift different weights and did over and over again. Aamir Khan set a goal to himself day by day and the minute he made it, he fell down on the ground and could hardly stand up. In the end, he became the exact person the movie needed.

The role he played was very moving and he succeeded at last. As he says, the most important thing in life is not whether you can reach your goal but whether you have made the greatest efforts.

A.Because he is a very famous Indian player.

B.Because he played a role in the movie "Let's go wrestling, Dad!"

C.Because he supported many Indian women to take up wrestling.

D.Because he became strong in a short time.

A.力量 B.目标 C.疲劳 D.节食

【3】What is the correct order of the following things about Aamir Khan?

①He changed his eating habits and did sports to become strong.

③To be fat, he ate lots of food.

④Finally, he succeeded.

A.③②①④ B.②③④① C.②①④③ D.②③①④

【4】Which of the following is NOT true about Aamir Khan himself?

A."Let's go wrestling, Dad!" is a true story about Aamir Khan himself.

B.He became very fat at first and then lost weight in a very short time.

C.In order to act well, he trained so hard.

D.He tried to play a perfect role in the movie.

22、   Most children don't enjoy doing housework. They like playing computer games rather than cleaning the rooms. But in Australia, Jim and Robert's mother, Mrs. Black, has good and proper methods to get their children to do housework.

Here is an example.

"Mom, have you worked out next week's housework? Let Jim and me choose the cards. I can't wait. It's fun!" When Robert shouted out, his mother had already put all the cards on their big table. On the cards, there are some words like these, "sweep the floor, clean your bedroom, help mom cook, wash vegetables, make beds, feed the fish, cut the wood, clean the bathroom" and many others. Jim and Robert chose two cards for each day from Monday to Friday. Then they would hang them on the weekday task board. Jim likes to clean the bathroom, so he picked up the card "clean the bathroom". Robert loves to make the bed so he picked up his favorite card. Jim again picked up "wash vegetables” and Robert chose "feed the fish". Soon the two boys were happy to take away all the cards.

To help the children do housework, their mother thought hard and came up with this idea. Of course, the parents did the housework on the weekends and left Jim and Robert two days free.

23、Life comes in a package. This package includes happiness and sadness, failure and success, hope and despair. Life is a learning process.

Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person. With each passing day we learn to deal with kinds of situations.

Love plays an important role in our life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person could become cruel. In the early stage of our life, our parents are the ones who show us unconditional love and care. They teach us about what is right and wrong, good and bad. But we always tend to take this for granted（认为理所应当）. It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands and becomes sensitive to others’ feelings.

Happiness achieved by bringing a smile on other’s face gives a certain level of fulfillment（成就）. Peace of mind makes you feel happy. No mind is happy without peace. We realize the true worth of happiness when we are sad. Sadness comes from the death of a loved one or the failure. But all of these things will pass away.

Failure is the way to success, and it helps us to touch the sky, teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way. Success brings in money, fame, pride and self-respect.

Hope is what keeps life going. Parents always hope their children will do well. Hope makes us dream. Hope builds in patience. Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour, because after every night there is a day. Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday, for it has passed and is beyond our control. Tomorrow is unknown, and it could either be bright or dull. So what we can choose is to work hard today, so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow.
