21、 First of all, students should respect their teachers. They should pay attention in class. That means saluting (向……致敬) the teacher, standing from your chair when the teacher enters the classroom, attending any lesson attentively, etc. In the class of a certain subject or a teacher you don't like very much, if it’s total anarchy (混乱), how can we talk about respect?
Play by the rules
If your teacher wants you to use wide-lined paper, do it! If he/she tells you to sharpen your pencils only before class starts, listen to him/her. If he/she doesn't accept late homework, do yours on time. Sometimes classroom rules seem strict or even silly, but most teachers know what's necessary to make things run smoothly and what it takes to let the learning begin. And the better the learning environment is, the smarter you’ll be!
Expect him/her to like you
Teachers are teachers because they like kids. Given the chance, most teachers want to be your friends too. Respect your teacher, but don’t be afraid of him/her. He/She wants you to have a great school year just as much as you want to have!
Put first things first
Friends are a fun part of school. But sometimes they’re not the most important part. When your teacher is teaching, give him/her your full attention. Even when it’s hard to do — recess will come soon, and that’s the time for playing with your friends.

22、Apart from a simple“hot”, what other ways are there to describe the summer heat? There are many interesting expressions that relate to unbearably hot weather and offer a glimpse into foreign culture.
Dog days of summer
In books and newspaper articles, the period from early July to mid－August is often referred to as the “dog days of summer”. Some think the expression means the weather is so hot that dogs go wild. But in fact, the expression comes from 16th century astrology and refers to the days on which Sirius－the Dog Star, the brightest star in the summer sky and part of the Great Dog constellation－rises at the same time as the sun.
Hotter than a two－dollar pistol
The reason for the expression is that no pistol could cost 2 dollars unless it had been stolen. In English slang, stolen goods are often said to be “hot” and anyone in possession of hot goods is likely to get their fingers burned, in other words, to be arrested.
So hot you can fry an egg on the sidewalk
Thousands of curious tourists feel like testing if the saying is true, with the result that sidewalks in Death Valley, California, the hottest place in the U. S. , are now littered with broken eggshells. As long as you use a frying pan with a lid and the temperature is at least 49℃ , it is actually possible to fry an egg on the sidewalk.
Hinges of Hades
For those who believe it exists, hell is undoubtedly the hottest place on earth, so unsurprisingly there are several expressions that refer to hell or Hades, or even the devil himself. “Hotter than the hinges or gates of Hades” is the oldest version , but more amusing variations have become popular, such as “hotter than the devil's underwear”.
【1】Which expression relates to the study of stars?
A．Dog days of summer.
B．Hotter than a two－dollar pistol.
C．So hot you can fry an egg on the sidewalk.
D．Hinges of Hades.
【2】What's the meaning of “hot” in the expression “Hotter than a two－dollar pistol” in English slang?
A．Popular.
B．Difficult.
C．Illegal.
D．Angry.
【3】At which temperature can we fry an egg on the sidewalk?
A．55℃.
B．40℃.
C．39℃.
D．29℃.
23、Some years ago, on a hot summer day in south Florida, a little boy decided to go for a swim in the cold swimming hole behind his house.
In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he did not realize an alligator（短吻鳄）was swimming towards the shore. His mother in the house, looking out of the window, saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In fear, she ran towards the water, yelling to the son as loudly as she could.
It was too late. The alligator reached him.
From the dock, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the alligator got his legs. That began an incredible tug of war（拔河）between the two. The alligator was much stronger than the mother, but the mother would not let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard her screams, ran from his truck, and shot the alligator.
Amazingly, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His leg were extremely scarred by the animal’s attack, and on his arms were scratches (抓痕) from mothers’ fingernails where she had tried to hang on to the son she loved.
The newspaper reporter who interviewed the boy asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted his pant legs . And then, he proudly said to the reporter: “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my mom would not let go.”
You and I can identify with (理解) that little boy. We have scars, too. No, not from alligator, or anything quite so dramatic . But the scars of a painful past. Some of those scares are ugly and have caused us deep regret.
But some wounds, my friend, are because someone has refused to let go. In your struggle, maybe someone has been there holding on to you.
【1】Upon seeing the alligator getting close to her boy, the mother ________ .
A. dived into the cool water at once
B. was too afraid to move
C. shouted a warning to her boy
D. got ready to fight the crocodile
【2】Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?
A. There were scars on the boy’s arms and legs.
B. The mother won the “match” because of her strength.
C. A farmer scared the alligator away by hitting it in the eyes.
D. A crocodile attacked the boy when he and his mother were swimming.
【3】By saying, “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too,” the boy really wanted to show ___________.
A. how deep the scars were
B. what a brave boy he was
C. how recently he had survived an attack
D. how great his mother was
【4】According to the author, how are we all similar to the boy in the story?
A. We can be brave and never let go of our loved ones.
B. We may be faced with danger in our lives.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
One morning more than thirty years ago, I entered the Track Kitchen, a restaurant where everyone from the humblest to the most powerful came for breakfast. I noticed an empty chair next to an elderly, unshaven man, who looked somewhat dirty. He was wearing a worn-out hat and was alone. I asked if I might join him. He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast.
We carefully began a conversation and spoke about a lot of things. We never introduced ourselves. I was concerned that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat. So as I rose to go back to the counter and buy a second cup of coffee, I asked,
“May I get you something?”
“A coffee would be nice.”
Then I bought him a cup of coffee. We talked more, and he accepted another cup of coflee. Finally, I rose to leave, wished him well, and headed for the exit. At the door I met one of my friends. He asked,
“How did you get to know Mr. Galbreath?”
“Who?”
“The man you were sitting with. He is chairman of the Board of Churchill Downs.”
I could hardly believe it. I was buying, offering a free breakfast, and feeling pity for one of the world’s richest and most powerful men!
Paragraph l：
My few minutes with Mr. Galbreath changed my life.
