21、There may be a thousand ways to say “Happy Birthday!” but the sweetest of all may very well be a special chocolate message that was recently served up by an amazingly thoughtful restaurant staff.
Creating congratulations in warm liquid cocoa was nothing new at London’s Luciano by Gino D’Acampo restaurant, but for birthday girl Natalie Te Paa, who is totally blind, the best wishes were spelled out in Braille (布莱叶盲文).
What gave the message an even greater meaning was that there was no advance planning involved. When the restaurant crew learned the dinner Te Paa was sharing with friend Claire Sara was a birthday celebration, they took it upon themselves to find and recreate the Braille translation that summed up their best wishes in well-chilled chocolate.
Te Paa could barely believe her fingertips as she traced over the raised dots.“My mind was blank for a second and then I was like, ‘Is this in Braille?’”Ta Paa said. “I’ve never had anything happen like that before. It was wild. They just really did go above and beyond. I couldn’t control my tears of joy.”
Dinner companion Sara recorded Te Paa’s delighted reaction to what had become a very different kind of surprise party and posted the cheerful footage to TikTok.
While restaurant manager Giovanni Galluccio maintains the impromptu (即兴的) gesture was simply part of the customer service they try to extend to all their patrons, clocking in with close to 16 million views to date, the Internet judged the extraordinary act of kindness extra special.
As Te Paa said, “The fact that people have responded so much and so well to it just shows how much the world needs kindness right now, how much the world needs a message of hope, needs to see people doing things and going above and beyond for each other.”
This is one message sure to melt in your hearts, not in your hands.
【1】How did the restaurant staff give the message a great meaning?
A．By providing the cake for Te Paa for free.
B．By giving the chocolate message well decorated.
C．By preparing the cake without any plan in advance.
D．By inviting dinner companion Sara ahead of time.
【2】How did Te Paa feel after she touched the chocolate cake?
A．She felt happy.
B．She felt jealous.
C．She felt shocked.
D．She felt motivated.
【3】What did Sara do at the party?
A．She thought highly of the restaurant manager.
B．She gave Te Paa a big surprise with pose.
C．She posted a video in a silent language.
D．She put part of the party’s process online.
【4】Which word can best replace the underlined word “patrons” in Paragraph 6?
A．Messages.
B．Customers.
C．Praises.
D．Ideas.

23、A university graduate described as a “respectable and intelligent” woman is seeking professional help after being convicted of （证明有……罪）shoplifting for the second time in six months.
Ana Luz, recently studying for her PhD, has been told she could end up behind bars unless she can control the desire to steal from shops.
Luz, who lives with her partner in Fitzwilliam Road, Cambridge, admitted stealing clothes worth ￡9.95 from John Lewis in Oxford Street, London, on March 9.
Phillip Lemoyne, prosecuting(起诉), said Luz selected some clothes from a display and took them to the ladies’ toilet in the store. When she came out again she was wearing one of the skirts she had selected, having taken off the anti-theft security alarms.
She was stopped and caught after leaving the store without paying, Mr. Lemoyne said.
He added that she was upset on her arrest and apologized for her actions.
Luz, 28, was said to have been convicted of shoplifting by Cambridge judges last October, but Morag Duff, defending, said she had never been in trouble with the police before that.
“She is ashamed and embarrassed but doesn’t really have any explanation why she did this,” Miss Duff said. “She didn’t intend to steal when she went into the store. She is at a loss to explain it. She is otherwise a very respectable and intelligent young lady. She went to her doctor and asked for advice because she wants to know if there is anything in particular that caused her to do this.” Judge David Azan fined Luz ￡50, and warned: “You’ve got a criminal record. If you carry on like this, you will end up in prison, which will ruin your bright future you may have.” Luz achieved a degree in design at university in her native Spain, went on to a famous university in Berlin, Germany for her master’s degree and is now studying for a PhD at Cambridge University, UK.

24、Can you still remember the things happening when you were a child? Grownups are often amazed by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials (尝试) increase the length of time we will remember it.
In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.
The multiplication tables (乘法口诀表) are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.
The law of overlearning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one’s future development.
【1】What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us?
A．Children have a better memory than grownups.
B．People remember well what they learned in childhood.
C．Poem reading is a good way to learn words.
D．Stories for children are easy to remember.
【2】What method does the author use to explain the law of overlearning?
A．presenting research findings
B．setting down general rules
C．giving examples
D．making a comparison
【3】According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is ________.
A．a result of overlearning
B．a special case of cramming
C．a skill to deal with math problems
D．a basic step towards advanced studies
【4】What does the word “they” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A．Commonly accepted rules.
B．School subjects.
C．Things easily forgotten.
D．The multiplication tables.
