21、I set up the organization, LitWorld, to provide every child with knowledge to create their own future of independence.
Now the HerStory Campaign, supported by LitWorld, will hold its 2nd anniversary. Teams of women and girls from communities around the world where we work will come to New York City as HerStory Ambassadors. Together, we will spend the week developing community action plans to make positive changes driven by women and girls in their home communities.
The movement will be a happy one, full of storytelling and arts courses, chances to build new friendships and deepen the HerStory network and connect with other changemakers, as well as visits to famous places in New York City.
One of the student leaders in Kenya, Winnie, is the oldest child in her family and has been caring for her family after her mother died five years ago. Though she has faced many difficulties, being part of the HerStory Campaign for the past two years has given Winnie the courage to go ahead and hope for the future. Winnie started “I Read, I Lead”. In her community, there are few ways to get information about women’s health. She understands that education is powerful and teaches girls to make wise choices for themselves.
Winnie is our future. She is learning and working to make her community in Kenya a better place for herself and others. Her story is just starting, but it is one of strength. Through our work, we are proud to make her voice and her spirit strong.

23、 When you choose a friend, you should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability (可靠).
Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person’s place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.
At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults (过错) in others. He notices their good points. In short, good friends will be honest to each other and accept each other.
Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.
There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor , too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.
When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I've found a friend!
【1】If you have fair weather friends, ______ .
A.you will become rich

24、 Did you toss and turn all night? Did you wake up with a sore neck or a headache? Do you feel like you need a nap(小睡) even though you have slept for eight hours? Just like you, I would wake up in the morning with all of those problems and I couldn't figure out why. Like many people who have trouble getting a good night's sleep, my lack(缺少) of sleep has a bad influence on my life. I wanted to do something about my sleep problems, but nothing that I tried worked.
The pillow(枕头) was the problem
I bought every pillow on the market that promised to give me a better night's sleep. None of them worked. Finally, I decided to invent one myself. I asked everyone I knew what qualities they would like to see in their 'perfect pillow' and got many responses: 'I'd like a pillow that never goes flat, ' 'I'd like my pillow to stay cool' and 'I'd like a pillow that adjusts to me regardless of my sleep position. ' I spent the next two years of my life inventing MyPillow.
MyPillow is to change the situation
Flash forward ten years and MyPillow, Mike Lindell’s revolutionary pillow design, has helped five million people improve the quality of their sleep. Lindell has been featured on numerous talk shows, including Fox Business News and Imus in the morning. Lindell and MyPillow have also appeared in feature stories in The New York Times. MyPillow has been selected as the Official Pillow of the U.S. National Sleep Foundation.

“I rode by Jensen’s today,” said Mum, “Little Jakey was out digging around in the snow. They’re out of wood, Matt.”
Jensen lived about two miles down the road. Her husband died 3 months ago, three children, Jakey being only 8 years old.
We loaded the sled high with . Then we went to the store and my mother took down some meat, a sack of flour and a smaller sack of shoes.
We rode the two miles to Jensen’s in . All the way I wondered why Mum bought them some shoes and candy as we didn’t have much money. Jensen had closer neighbors than us. It shouldn’t have been our .
We got to Jensen’s house and unloaded the wood as quietly as possible. Then we took the meat, flour and shoes to the door.
We . Jensen opened the door and let us in. “We brought you a few things, Jensen,” Mum said, the sack of flour and the meat on the table. Then Mum handed her the sack of shoes. Jensen bit her lower lip to keep it from trembling, tears welling out and down her cheeks.
“We also a load of wood, Jensen,” Mum added. She turned to me and said: “Matt, go and bring some in.”

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短文。
I stood with my friends in a line. My heart was hammering like anything, my hands cold and wet, my head buzzing with excitement and nervousness at the same time. I earnestly listened to the names of the house captains (社长) being announced, but in my heart, I wanted it to end because then the head girl would be announced. I so wanted it to be me.
I had made countless posters badges and bracelets for the campaigning. Instead of having lunch during the lunch time, I had gone from person to person, asking them to vote for me. I had shouted at the top of my lungs the slogan, “East or West, Maryam is the best! Vote for her and your year will be best."
I had tried my hardest to convince people to vote for me, now all I had left was hope.
“Guess who the head girl for the year is?" teased the announcer.
A heavy silence fell, one that was full of hope and expectation, of fear and of nervousness.
The announcer teased for a minute or two before finally announcing the name of the head girl.
I felt confused as my friends pushed me out of the line. As I looked at the huge crowd clapping for me, I could not believe that I was the head girl of the school. The head of the council body. The student that was respected and liked by everybody.
From then on, I enjoyed the respect I got in and out of school. At home, my family members praised me and at school everyone looked up to me. They thought I was an inspiration as well as someone they could get motivated by. I had power. I could talk to the school principal and convince her to do anything. I could order around other council members and ask them to do anything.
But as days passed, I realized that with power comes responsibility
