21、Do high school grades matter? In most cases yes, especially when you are applying to a good college after high school.【1】So, how to get better grades?
Turn your homework into a pleasant routine. Homework is not always a pleasant thing, but if you do it at a clean and pleasant place that you like, it’ll be less exhausting. Besides, you can get into a habit of doing your homework at the same time every day. For example, you may come home, relax for half an hour, and then start your homework. Or you may have more energy to do homework in the evening.【2】
Try to turn to others for help. If you feel that you’re lost in some subjects, you can talk with your teacher. They can always give you some advice on how to broaden your mind.【3】They can either get you a private teacher or send you to a training class.This will allow you to spend your time more wisely on difficult things.
【4】If you are studying for an exam, don’t leave everything for the last day. Start studying as early as possible and process a small part of information every day for one hour or so. Have a rest on a final night before the exam, so your brain will process the information while you are sleeping. This will make sure that you will get your grades up fast in high school.
These methods can go a long way into helping you become more focused on your work towards improving your grades.【5】And you’ll soon make great progress.
A．Also, you can ask your parents for help.
B．Break down your study materials into small pieces.
C．Decide for yourself which time works best for you.
D．Actually, exercising during breaks between your tasks is also helpful.
E．Try to use them along with a strong wish to do everything better.
F．What’s more, studies show that high grades can benefit your future career.
G．Your grades will be better if you feel comfortable talking to your teachers.

23、Here are some of the places where women can feel comfortable when they are traveling alone:
New Zealand: People speak English there, and the transport is convenient. Unlike Australia, where you have to travel by airplane to different parts of the country because it’s so huge, it’s simple to go on tours on your own in New Zealand.
Iceland: Iceland is a perfect choice for women who are traveling alone. It’s only four hours by plane from Boston and there are many direct flights from major US cities. In Iceland, you can travel to different farms to experience life there and hike some of its amazing natural wonders.
Costa Rica and Panama: If you’re looking for a destination in Central America, I highly recommend(推荐)both Costa Rica and Panama. There are so many things to do there and most people speak English. I suggest starting in Panama City where you can make a schedule of day trips and tours to different attractions like the Panama Canal. There are lots of adventure activities for active women who like hiking, white water rafting and even bungee jumping(蹦极).
Alaska: Alaska is also a safe and exciting destination. Plan to fly to Anchorage and then either rent a car or take a train to travel around other parts of the state, such as the Kenai Peninsula or Seward. In Alaska, you can go on tours to see wildlife or enjoy the whale-watch. Another good choice is to take a day cruise(航行)to experience some of Alaska's beauty.
【1】What do we know about Iceland?
A．It has the most convenient transport.
B．It is a good place to experience farmers'life.
C．It’s far from Boston and most major US cities.
D．Its famous attractions include the Panama Canal.
【2】If you like extreme sports, you can visit ________.
A．New Zealand
B．Iceland
C．Costa Rica and Panama
D．Alaska
【3】What is advised when people travel to Seward?
A．Pay attention to their own safety.
B．Book tickets for flights ahead of time.
C．Try their best to protect wildlife there.
D．Rent a car or take a train to travel around.
24、Apologizing for a mistake might seem difficult, but it will help you repair and improve your relationships with others after that offense (冒犯).
Acknowledge the offense. This is an essential element of a good apology. 【1】Apologies are most likely to be well-received if you show that you recognize who was responsible and who was harmed. For example, saying “I made a mistake” is more effective than saying“mistakes were made”, which fails to clarify responsibility.
【2】In some cases, it’s helpful to explain an offense, especially to explain that it was not intentional and that it will not happen again. But explanations that are long-winded, sound like excuses, or blame the victim (e. g. You were really getting on my nerves.) tend to have an opposite effect.
Express regret.【3】 Expressing these feelings communicates that you recognize and regret the suffering you caused. Be careful of phrases like “That was uncharacteristic of me.” 【4】 Instead, acknowledge your disappointment in yourself and your commitment to improve.
Tell them how you’ll change. Let them know how you’ll change and what you’d do to make that possible. For instance, if you’ve been late once again, instead of just apologizing, share how you’d keep an early alarm to be on time! 【5】
A．Provide a proper explanation.
B．Express your intention clearly.
C．But many apologies don’t do this enough.
D．When you hurt someone, it’s natural to feel shame or regret.
E．A true apology is one where you promise it won’t be repeated again.
F．This might show that you aren’t taking full ownership for what happened.
G．This will enable you to know what means the most to the offended person.
25、After spending a weekend away with my adult son, I was so impressed by his________heart that I sent him this letter.
Dear son,
I want to thank you for teaching me a very valuable lesson in life by the great example you________. When we were eating at that cafe in Boston and a person who had________his hamburger didn’t have enough money to pay for it. Without________, you went over and________the extra $2 into his hand. When we were leaving, you________threw a five-cent coin onto the pavement and said________like, “Some kid will really enjoy________this.” Last week, a young man________me in the line at a petrol station didn’t have________money to pay for his petrol. I asked the money collector, “How much________is he?” She told me he had meant to put $15 of petrol in his car________he had been looking at the wrong gauge (计量表) and had put in 15________, which came to a little________$20. That is an easy mistake________both gauges run fast.
Something made me think of you and________you did that night at the cafe in Boston. I handed the man $6. He was so________and said, “But why would you do this for me?” I just smiled as I thought of you.
Thank you, son, for teaching me that “it’s________to give than to receive”. Now when I see a five-cent coin on the________and want to pick it up, I think of you and leave it there, just in case some kid will get a ________out of finding it.
