21、It’s school time again! You’re probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over. Some kids feel nervous or a little afraid on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and even a new school. Luckily, these “new” worries only stay for a little while. Let’s find out more about going to a new school.
Most teachers kick off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the things you’ll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you’ll know what’s allowed and what’s not. Please pay close attention.
You might already know a lot of people in your class on the first day, but it’s a great day to make new friends, so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don’t. Make the first move and you’ll be glad you did, and so will your new friends! Seeing old friends can make the first day an exciting one.
You can make the day special by wearing clothes that you really like. Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of shoes.
It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you’ll be needing. But make sure that you pack them the night before in case you don’t have time in the morning.
【1】What do most teachers usually do at the beginning of a new school year according to the passage?

22、One morning in 2003, a 19-year-old Amy Purdy left for her job as a nursery teacher, feeling healthy and ready for her day. Halfway through her morning, she started to feel achy and unwell. Once home, she had a fever and fell into a deep sleep that was impossible for her to shake.
After a short, tense ride to the nearest hospital, Purdy was given less than a two percent chance of surviving. Over the course of the 2.5month treatment that followed, she lost kidney (肾) function and hearing in her left ear—then her spleen and, eventually, both of her legs. What doctors thought was the flu ended up being a very deadly meningitis (脑膜炎) infection. Purdy’s life was changed forever.
It was when she was in bed for months that she started to think about that big life question: what was her story going to be? She began dreaming about snowboarding and visualized herself carving down a mountain of powder, feeling the wind on her face.
This made her return to the sport as a double-amputee (截肢者). Being back on the board was rough at first—several times, her board and her prosthetic (假体的) legs flew down the mountain without her. But Purdy had a strong will and set out to build her own prosthetics that would be purpose built for snowboarding. Purdy’s first home made snowboarding feet is on display in the Smithsonian now.
In 2005, after her 21st birthday—and the gift of a new kidney from her father—Purdy decided to start Adaptive Action Sports. Purdy and her family organized a team of snowboarders and began pushing for their sport to be part of the 2014 Paralympic Games in Sochi, Russia. After being turned down several times, they were finally granted access to the Paralympic Games, appearing as parasnowboarding for the first time in history. Since then, her snowboarding team has brought home six medals and raised the visibility of the sport.
Since her illness took her legs 18 years ago, Purdy has managed to squeeze as much achievement and joy out of her life as possible. “Maybe instead of looking at all our challenges and barriers as something negative or bad,” she proposes, “maybe we can look at them as little gifts that fire our imaginations.”
【1】Amy Purdy eventually lost her legs because of________ .
A．a sudden accident
B．the serious infection
C．the sports training
D．the kidney failure
【2】According to the passage, we can learn that________ .
A．Purdy’s father donated a kidney to her
B．Purdy’s former job was a snowboard athlete
C．Purdy made her snowboarding feet with her friends’ help
D．Purdy’s team snowboarding succeeded when they applied for the first time
【3】Which of the following words can best describe Amy Purdy?
A．Smart and mature.
B．Selfless and patient.
C．Determined and optimistic.
D．Creative and modest.
23、When I began planning to move to Auckland to study, my mother was a little worried about the uncertainty of living in a place that was so different from India, where we lived. She worried particularly about the lack of jobs, the cultural differences and the chance that I would face racism.
Despite these worries, came to New Zealand in July 2014. I have found the place and people very nice and supportive. Soon after I arrived, realized the importance of getting a job to supply my living expenses.
Determined to do this on my own, I spent a whole day going from door to door asking for a job. However, I received little or no response. This became my routine every day after college for a few weeks.
One afternoon, I walked into a building to ask if there were any job opportunities. The people there were very surprised, and advised me not to continue my job search in that manner. As I was about to leave, a clerk in the building, who had been listening to what the others had said, approached me and asked if I would wait outside. Fifteen minutes later, he returned. He asked me what my plans were and encouraged me to stay confident. He then offered to take me to the Royal Oak area to search for a job.
I was a little surprised, but had a good feeling about him, so I went along. Along the way, I realized that I had run out of copies of my resume（简历）. The man stopped at his business partner’s office to make me 15 extra copies. He also gave me tips on dressing and speaking, and added that I should give him a call if I ever needed anything. I handed out my resumes and went home feeling very satisfied. The following day, I received a call from a store in Royal Oak offering me a job.
It seems that the world always gives back to you when you need it. And this time, it was a complete stranger who turned out to be a real blessing.

24、 Are you the type of person who always says “yes”? I’ve come to learn that it is very important to learn to say “no”. It’s okay. People are still going to like you. They may even respect you more because they know you are honest.
I’m not saying to say “no” to someone who really needs your help. I’m talking about turning down that meeting that you really do not want to attend or that birthday party that you don’t want to be a guest at.
Think for a moment how you feel when you say “yes” to something that you really don’t want to do. If you’re like I once was, you can’t sleep at night and you think about it too much. It weighs on your mind. You try to find ways out. Whatever you’re saying to yourself, if you really wanted to go, you wouldn’t have all of these thoughts.
So, why not just say “no” from the beginning？Maybe you feel like if you don’t show up at the meeting (by the way, it is not one you must attend), your boss isn’t going to like you or your coworkers won’t respect you. Maybe you feel as if your mom, dad or sisters won’t love you as much if you don’t do everything for them what they ask every occasion.
If these people are your true friends, family members, or a good boss, they will like or love you the same no matter what. People treat you the way you teach them to, and if you’re someone who always says “yes”, then that’s what they’re expecting.
You need to do what is right for you. Of course we do have real obligations in life to fulfill, but we do not have to do everything others want us to do.
【1】Which of the following statements would the writer agree with?
A．We should try to do what our friends ask us to do.
B．We should help others in need.
C．Always saying “yes” means you are dishonest.
D．Always saying “no” means you are brave.
【2】Generally speaking, we agree to do what we hate to do because we________.
A．have a bad habit
B．have a kind heart
C．have much concern
D．have obligations
【3】The writer believes that if you say “no” to your family members, you’ll________.
A．have the same relationship with them as before
B．have a loose relationship with them
C．disappoint them
D．upset them
【4】What would be the best title for the text?
A．Learn to Make a Right Choice
B．To Be Yourself
C．Do What You Want to Do
D．Learn to Say “No”

Although__________individuals like Turing are often__________to physical exercise to__________their deeply intellectual work, few__________as good at their sport as he did.
His real passion in life, apart from the computer, was to run in the Olympic Games, in the marathon. “I was probably 20 at the time, but I sometimes felt a lot older,” He said. Because he had this extraordinary naivety, like a 15 year old, he bounced when he talked, and he had tremendous__________.
