22、 For many years, a beautiful, white horse wandered the western plains. Native Americans saw him before the settlers came but never got close to him. Only one person ever touched the white horse. She was an old lady when she told the story to her grandchildren.
Gretchen's family came to Texas in a covered wagon when she was a very little girl. The oxen that pulled the wagons moved very slowly. There were no roads. The sun was hot. and the dust covered everything in sight.
The trip was especially tiresome for little Gretchen. To make it easier, she was allowed to ride an old horse named Nelly, a gentle animal with a slow pace. Gretchen's parents tied Gretchen securely to keep her from falling off.
One day, one of the wagons broke a wheel. When the wheel was being repaired, Nelly wandered along to an inviting area of green grass near the river bank with Gretchen, who had fallen asleep tied to the horse's back.
Suddenly, Gretchen awoke with a start, from across the river came the sound of a horse's whinny. There stood the beautiful white horse. His body was the colour of snow and his long mane and tail shone like silver thread.
The wild horse ran into a nearby canyon, and Nelly slowly followed behind. Gretchen cried out, but the wagon train was far away and no one could hear her. Finally, the horses came to a stop in a grassy valley. The white horse and old Nelly stood side by side eating grass.
Gretchen stared at the beautiful horse. He didn't seem at all afraid of her. Slowly she reached over to touch his neck. He lifted his head and looked at her with gentle, curious eyes. Then he put his head back down and ate the grass. The two horses seemed to have developed a bond, and Gretchen enjoyed being with them.
For over an hour the white horse stayed with old Nelly and Gretchen. Then just as the sun was getting low in the sky, Gretchen heard a familiar shout. Across the valley, she could see her father and several men headed toward her and the horses.
The white horse twitched （抽动）his ears in response to the men's shouts and then he was gone. The men stopped to watch as he ran across the valley and out of the canyon. Never again did he come close enough to be touched.

23、Americans: Restless? Illiterate(文盲)？
Americans are queer people; they can’t rest. They have more time, more leisure, shorter work hours, more holidays, and more vacations than any other people in the world. But they can’t rest. They rush up and down across their continent as tourists; they move about in great herds to conventions(大会); they search the wilderness; they flood the mountains; they keep the hotels full. But they can’t rest. The scenery rushes past them. They learn it, but they don’t see it. Battles and monuments are announced to them on a tour bus. They hear them, but they don’t get them. They never stop moving; they rush up and down as Shriners, Masons, Old Graduates, Bankers—they are a new thing each day, always rushing to a reunion or something. So they go on rushing about till eventually the undertaker(殡葬工)gather them to a last convention.
Americans are queer people; they can’t read. They have more schools, and better schools and spend more money on schools and colleges than all Europe. But they can’t read. They print more books in a year than the French print in ten. But they can’t read. They cover their country with one hundred thousand tons of Sunday newspapers every week. But they don’t read them. They’re too busy. They use them for fires and to make more paper with. They buy eagerly thousands of new novels at two dollars each. But they read only page one. Their streets are full of huge signs. They won’t look at them. Their streetcars are filled with advertising; they turn their eyes away. Transparent colors, cart wheels, and mechanical flares whirl and flicker in the crowded streets at night. No one sees them. Tons of letters pour into the mail boxes, through the houses, and down the garbage cans. No one reads them.

24、British chemist David Evans has become an overnight celebrity on Chinese social media. His chemistry experiments have attracted over 2 million followers in just a few months. Evans is a chemistry professor at the Beijing University of Chemical Technology. He always wears a white lab coat, a pair of safety goggles (护目镜), and smiles often. Some web users say he looks just like the “grandpa of KFC”.
Evans has posted videos of various experiments. His most popular experiments have attracted millions of hits on video-sharing apps. Excited children’s cheers and shouts can be heard in his videos. “I hope my experiments can arouse people’s interest in science,” he says.
Evans has been interested in China since childhood. He first visited the Chinese mainland in 1987 to attend a chemistry conference in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province. He quit his job in the United Kingdom and moved to Beijing in 1996. Many of his friends thought he was crazy. But Evans says they just saw China’s challenges but not its potential.
Since 2011, Evans has turned to the Internet to popularize science. He learned that short-video apps are also popular in small cities and rural areas. And he realized this enables him to reach more students, who lack opportunities to perform fun experiments. But even a one-minute video requires a considerable amount of work. Still, he thinks it’s worth it to fulfil his responsibility to popularize science.
His experiments always fill schools’ lecture halls with laughter. Some viewers call him “a Harry Potter-like magician”, but he disagrees. “A magician never tells the secrets behind his tricks, but a scientist always gives an explanation.” He sees himself as a teacher. He performs experiments to spread knowledge, inspire thinking, remove misunderstandings and show that science can create change. Evans says he looks forward to more “chemical reactions” with China.

26、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
The watch was my grandfather's. He hung it by his bed. The face was marked with elegant Roman numbers and the case was gold. My grandfather got it after his fifty years of faithful service with his firm. I often gazed at it longingly as I sat with my grandfather after school.
The day I told him of my success in the examinations, he was pleased, "You'll be going to the new school next, Will. Remember you'll need plenty of patience. That's the right way. " I nodded when handing him the watch. He gazed at it for some moments, and wound it.
The next morning my mother told me he had died in his sleep and left me his watch. For safety, my mother was to put it away in trust until she considered me old enough to look after it. I protested（抗议）so strongly that she finally agreed to hang it in the kitchen where I could always see it.
The summer soon ended and it was time for me to enter the new school. I never made friends easily, and for a time I did little more than get on speaking terms with some boys. One of them was a rich fellow whose way of impressing us was to parade his possessions before us. Everything Crawley had was better than ours—until he brought the watch.
"I have a better watch than that," I announced, attempting to impress them. "Well, show it to us," Crawley sneered（冷笑）in disbelief. Embarrassed, I promised to bring it to them that afternoon.
Considering there was no way to persuade my mother to let me take the watch, I decided to wait for her to step outside and slip the watch into my pocket. So I did. After lunch, as I was too excited to wait for the return bus, I got my bike out of the shed
I rode fast, excitement coursing through me. Then suddenly a puppy ran out into my path. I pulled at my brakes so hard that the bike stopped to a sharp standstill（急停）and I fell over.

"That's not the right way. Patience, Will. Patience, " a voice echoed in my ears after the boys left.
