21、Feelings are the emotional and physical responses to what we think about and how we react to daily events. Feelings are natural — we can’t stop them from happening. Because we are all different, we respond to feelings in various ways, sometimes positively and sometimes negatively. But if we are aware of our feelings, we can learn to respect ourselves and others.
There are many misunderstandings about feelings. For example, “ Feelings, that womanish stuff. ” Recognizing that feelings are real and natural for everyone is important. Some of us may never agree that feelings are a part of living. It may be difficult for some of us to talk about our feelings. Learning about personal feelings is important in building self-awareness and relationships with others. Most mentally healthy individuals learn to accept feelings, both good and bad.
“Feelings don’t exist, or they are dangerous. So no one should talk about them. ” Refusing to admit feelings can damage relationships. It can also build up emotions to the point when negative behaviors break out, for example, when an angry person hits the table. Not being able to talk to those we respect about our feelings may cause an emotional “shut down ” . Talking about personal feelings with your family may help. But if it doesn’t, you may need to talk about your feelings with someone else.
Instead of denying feelings, it is healthier to talk about them. One of the most important things you can do to create respect in a family is never to deny someone’s feelings. Try to spend time each day, perhaps at the dinner table or in a private chat, talking about feelings. Teach your children by example, like “ I feel afraid that you will be sleepy tomorrow if you don’t go to bed soon. ” Learn to be a good listener and show understanding.
【1】What is the feature of feelings?
A．They are negative.
B．They happen naturally.
C．They are dangerous.
D．They exist in women.
【2】Why does the author mention “ an angry person hits the table ” in Paragraph 3?
A．To tell a story.
B．To explain an idea.
C．To show a fact.
D．To give a definition.
【3】What is the author’s attitude toward talking about feelings?
A．Doubtful.
B．Negative.
C．Favorable.
D．Indifferent.
【4】What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A．Ways of sharing feelings in a family.
B．Effects of denying someone’s feelings.
C．Reasons for having respect in a family.
D．Importance of teaching kids about feelings.
22、Summer Rain
The worst days of any summer are the rainy ones. We spend all year looking forward to nice weather and long, hot days. All of winter, with its cloudy days and bitter cold, we dream of those endless days at the beach, lying on the sand and enjoying the bright and burning sun. And then, summer comes, and it rains.
As a child, I would wake up to rainy summer days and come close to crying. It wasn’t fair. We suffered through months of school and experienced bad weather for those short ten weeks of freedom and pleasant weather.
On those rainy summer days, I had nothing fun to do and could only sit inside, staring out at the rain like a bird in a cage. I was an only child, so there was no one else to play with. My father worked from home, so I was not truly alone, but he could not actively play with me since he was at work. It was those days that I would watch whatever was on television or read any books that I could find lying around. I’d drag through the day and pray each night that the rain would not be there the next day.
As an adult, though, my opinion of summer rain has changed. When you have to work every day, summer is not as exciting. Everything seems dull. Such a mindset makes you cheer for anything new or different. I spend the winter dreaming of summer and the summer dreaming of winter. When summer comes, I hate how hot it is. And then I look forward to the rain, because the rain brings with it a cold front, which makes me comfortable. Rainy days are still the worst days of the summer, but summer rain today means positively beautiful — and considerably cooler — weather tomorrow.
【1】When the author was a child, he ______.
A. hated rainy days
B. liked staying indoors
C. preferred cooler weather
D. dreamed on summer days
【2】We can learn from the passage that the author ______.
A. was often left alone at home
B. had no brothers or sisters
C. preferred reading to playing outside
D. could enjoy the brilliant sun in winter
【3】As an adult, the author views summer rain differently because ______.
A. he knows it won’t last long
B. his summer holiday is very short
C. rain makes the weather cooler
D. he can better deal with his holiday
23、China in Context, the first annual festival founded in Britain celebrating writers and writings from and about China, returned to London’s China town here in March. The annual event brings together Chinese writers, translators, language experts and readers from across the world to explore the extensive range of China’s history and culture through writings. Co-organized by Cypress Books and China Exchange, the event features talks from famous Chinese authors including Su Tong and Lu Nei and Chinese American writer Yan Geling, as well as a book fair, various hands-on workshops, and cultural activities.
In its second year, the festival focused on the theme of “translating China”. Ru Jing, from Cypress Books, said the theme was chosen because quality translated books are an important way to help people understand China. “Translating China is not only about translating the books but also the Chinese culture and other aspects of China,” she said, adding that it is high time they should organize such an event as more and more Chinese writers and books are known across the world.“I am studying Chinese but the grammar is really complicated and I have a lot of problems with it,” said Martin Parrott, a retired teacher, who thanked this event for offering people access to so many Chinese books and other sources here. “The more often this kind of event is held, the more people will come. I think you can do really good publicity in Britain, in places where people are studying the Chinese language and doing business with China, as nowadays many people in Britain want to know more about China,” he said.
According to the organizer China Exchange, the festival lasted over two weeks, and some of its popular workshops and talks had been fully booked.

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。
A wealthy man and his son liked to collect rare works of art. They had everything in their collection, from Picasso to Raphael. They would often sit together and admire these great works of art.
When the Vietnam conflict broke out, the son went to war. Unfortunately he died in battle while rescuing another soldier. The father was in deep sorrow for his only son.
About a month later, just before Christmas, there was a knock at the door. A young man stood at the door with a large package in his hands. He said, “Sir, you don't know me. I am the soldier for whom your son gave his life.” “He saved many lives that day, and he was carrying me to safety when a bullet struck him in the heart and killed him instantly.” “He often talked about you and your love of art.” The young man held out that package. “I know this isn't much.” “I'm not a great artist, but I think your son would have wanted you to have this.”
The father opened the package. It was a picture of his son, painted by the young man. He stared in surprise at the way the soldier captured the personality of his son in the painting. The father was so drawn to the eyes that tears welled up in his own eyes. He thanked the young man and offered to pay for the painting. “Oh, no, sir, I could never repay what your son did for me. It's a gift.”
The father hung the picture on the wall. Every time visitors came to his home he took them to see the portrait of his son before he showed them any of the other great works he had collected.
The man died a few years later. There was to be a great auction of his art collection. Many influential people gathered, excited over seeing the great paintings and having the opportunity to purchase one for their collection.
