21、Like many new graduates, I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do. My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical. I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea how to do that. That’s when I learned about the Lighthouse Project.
I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers. I knew it would be a lot of hard work, and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time. In short, I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly. Neither did my family.
Eventually, however, I won the support of my family, and I sent in all the paperwork needed for the application. After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone. Several months later, I finally received a call asking me to report for the duty. I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria. Where? What? Nigeria? I had no idea. But I was about to find out.
After completing my training, I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation. Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, hearts, and food as if I were their own family. I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse. For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse. But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me.
Sometime during that period, I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did, though I did not get anywhere with the local language, and I returned to the United States a different man. The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever.

22、The most widespread fallacy (谬论)of all is that colds ire caused by cold. They are actually caused by viruses passing on from person to person. You catch a cold by coining into contact, directly or indirectly, with someone who already has one. If cold causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos to suffer from them forever But they do not. And in the isolated Arctic Regions explorers have reported being free from colds until coming into contact again with infected people from the outside world by way of packages and mail dropped from airplanes.
During the First World War soldiers who spent long periods in the trenches(战壕), cold and wet, showed no increased tendency to catch colds.
In the Second World War prisoners at the Auschwitz concentration camp，naked and starving, were astonished to find that they seldom had colds. At the Common Cold Research Unit in England, volunteers took part in experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time. After taking hot baths, they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be with cold water, and then stood about dripping wet in drafty rooms. Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion. Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose.
If then, cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more frequent in the winter. Despite the most pains-taking research, no one has yet found the answer. One explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times, and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on.

【3】Arctic explorers may catch colds when they are .
A. working in the isolated arctic regions
B. writing reports in terribly cold weather
C. free from work in the isolated arctic regions
D. coming into touch again with the outside world
【4】Volunteers taking part in the experiments in the Common Cold Research Unit .
A. suffered a lot B. never caught colds
C. often caught colds D. became very strong
【5】The passage mainly discusses .
A. the experiments on the common cold
B. the fallacy about the common cold
C. the reason and the way people catch colds
D. the continued spread of common colds
23、 The Spanish people have their own dining schedule which is very different from most countries. Breakfast in the Spanish culture is easily the least important meal of the day, the first thing occurring in the morning until about 10:00 am. Many Spaniards skip breakfast but if they do have breakfast, it will likely be something light and simple which may consist of coffee, hot chocolate or fresh-squeezed orange juice accompanied by a piece of toast with jam. After such a light breakfast, from around 10:30 am to noon, bars are full of workers for their morning coffee breaks, who enjoy a drink and a small snack to help survive until lunch time.
Lunch, the most important meal of the day, generally consists of several courses with a light first course such as soup or salad, a heavier second course of meat or fish, fruit or dessert, followed by bread and also wine and water.
Lunch and the famous nap time occur from 2 pm until 4 pm. Most shops and companies close during this time to allow their workers to make their way home to eat. Although this pause still exists, the famous nap time is rarely used for sleeping but rather transportation as people gradually live farther and farther away from their workplaces.
Due to this lunch break, many workers do not leave their work until about 8 pm. Typically, this is when they will have a small snack to get them through until dinner time. Dinner, similar to lunch but usually lighter, is a late affair in Spain which is normally served from 9 pm to 10:30 pm. In the summer time it is common to see Spaniards sitting down to eat as late as 12 pm!

B．Spaniards think their lunch the most important.

【3】What could be the best title for the text?
A．Unique Dining Customs in Spain.
B．Foods Served at Meals in Spain.
C．A Busy Workday of the Spanish.
D．Comfortable Life of the Spanish.
24、It is perhaps the most performed song in the world.A birthday party wouldn’t be complete without participants joyously belting out the song around a big birthday cake.【1】
【2】 But if someone wants to do it in movies or TV shows or in any other commercial activities, he needs to pay the Warner Music Group for the right.【3】
【4】 According to an August 4 The New York Times story, a class action lawsuit has been filed by a group of independent artists.Lawyers in the case said they had found evidence in the pages of a nearly centuryold songbook that proves the song’s copyright — first issued in 1935 — is no longer valid.
A federal judge may rule on the case in the coming weeks, reported The New York Times.
If the song becomes part of the public domain (范围), then the Warner Music Group will lose millions of dollars in licensing fees in the future.【5】 These people think it is unfair that Happy Birthday to You has long since survived anyone involved in its creation, but is still owned by a corporation than charges for its use.

B．According to a report, Happy Birthday to You is believed to be netting the company D|S2 million fees a year.

D．It’s common to sing this song personally.
E．But this unreasonable situation could soon be changed.
F．Legally, it is supposed to be paid for the right of using this song.
