21、 A loud sound woke Dan at 8:15 in the morning. Looking out of his bedroom window, he spied a tree in smoke about 500 yards away. A car was stuck around the tree’s base, its engine on fire.
“I grabbed buckets of water.” Dan told the reporter. Then he and his girlfriend ran to the crash site. The car was divided nearly in two, and the tree was where the driver’s seat ought to have been, as if planted there. There was 16-year-old Thompson, his terrified face pressed against the driver’s side window, in great pain. Dan tried putting out the fire with his buckets of water with no success. “When the flames got into the front seats, I realized I had to get him out of there.” he told WAGM-TV.
“I feel like I just did what had to be done.” said Dan. Regardless of his own safety, Dan opened the car’s back door and crawled in. Thompson was struggling to get free. Dan said, “That’s when I noticed how bad his legs were.” Using a pocket knife, he cut off Thompson’s seat belt. Dan pulled him out of the window of the vehicle, and then dragged him to safety before the entire car was engulfed in flames. Although Thompson suffered serious injuries in his legs, he looked great, smiling. Dan thought about that day often. “There was a voice deep down telling me to act at once.” He said.

23、 “If you could have any three things, what would you want?” Eleven-year-old Ruby Kate Chitsey loves asking that question, but it’s not a game. She asks it at nursing homes in the Harrison, Arkansas, where she lives. Even more amazing, she then sets out to make the residents’ wishes come true.
Ruby Kate has long been close to older folks. Her mother, Amanda Chitsey works at nursing homes in northwest Arkansas, and Ruby Kate often stays with her in the summer. The Chitseys learned that many nursing home residents are unable to afford even the smallest luxuries. So Ruby Kate decided to do something about it. “I’ve never found them scary at all, so I’m able to just go up to them and ask if they need anything,” she says.
She started by asking residents what three things they wanted most in the world. Amanda worried that people would ask for cars and other things an 11-year-old wouldn’t be able to provide. Instead, they asked for chocolate bars, McDonald’s fries, and pants that fit properly.
“It broke me as a human,” Amanda says. “We left the nursing home that day and went straight to a store and bought as many items as we could.”
Using their own money, the Chitseys granted the wishes of about 100 people in three months. Then they started asking for donations.
The good people of Harrison responded enthusiastically, so much that Amanda set up a GoFundMe page, Three Wishes for Ruby’s Residents, hoping to collect $5,000. They hit their goal in a month. After GoFundMe named Ruby Kate a Kid Hero and promoted her story nationwide this past January, Three Wishes raised $20,000 in 24 hours and more than $250,000 in five months. With those funds, the Chitseys were able to get more creative: One resident asked for a man cave, so they got him a Walkman and stocked his fridge with snacks. Another wanted to go to a friend’s out-of-state wedding; they gave her money for gas and food.
Earlier this year, Three Wishes for Ruby’s Residents became a nonprofit and launched its first nationwide chapters. One of its new goals is to set up a communal laptop in one nursing home in each state. Ruby Kate doesn’t plan to stop there. Actually, besides Ruby Kate, more youngsters are involved in helping others as a hobby. At one high school, students turned a single dollar into a truly inspirational act.
【1】Why did the Chitseys decide to ask and meet the residents’ wishes?
A.It was Amanda’s duty to do that. B.The residents’ stories moved them.
C.They wanted to do something for the poor there. D.They had a close relationship with the residents.
【2】Amanda said “It broke me as a human,” in Para.4, probably because _______.
A.the wishes were simple B.the wishes were in her plan
C.she couldn’t realize the wishes D.she couldn’t help her daughter
【3】From last two paragraphs, we know the Chitseys _______.
A.started a page to get profit B.wrote stories about nursing homes
C.appealed to more people to join them D.carried out their project across the world
【4】The story mainly inspires people to _______.
A.accompany the senior B.deliver kindness to others
C.treasure what they have D.be optimistic toward life
24、 The desire to be perfect is something most of us have felt at some point in our lives.Studying for the perfect test result, searching for the perfect partner, working through the night to smash that perfect presentation.Often, having high standards can drive success, but for some people, diligence and motivation can shift into perfectionism, a misunderstood personality trait（特质）that can have dangerous consequences.
Perfectionism has increased significantly over the past three decades, a recent analysis shows.Young people in particular place higher demands on themselves and on others.Our dog-eat-dog world is creating a rising tide of young people who may be putting themselves at risk of mental and physical illness in their search for the perfect life.
Admittedly,perfectionists tend to achieve academically or in their career.But it comes at a price.Even among top athletes and professional dancers, perfectionism is a double-edged sword, according to research by Sanna Nordin- Bates at the Swedish School of sport and Health Science in Stockholm.Through a series of questionnaires and in-depth interviews, she found that perfectionism improves performances in the short run, but then weakens it. "These dancers and athletes speak about the positive aspects of it, but there's always a 'but'.The elements of perfectionism that drive them to reach high standards always come at a cost," she says."We certainly shouldn't be promoting perfectionism as a positive trait in an uncritical manner.It isn't even true that you need it to be a top athlete."
With perfectionism rising rapidly among young people, many parents will share the desire to protect their children. "We've been working on the role parents play and it's complex," says Martin Smith at York St John University. "In terms of preventing it in your children, we know that parental practices have an important influence. "To avoid creating perfectionist tendencies, parents need to focus on loving their children in a more unconditional way, rather than focusing their love on specific successes.They can also help young people cope with the pressures of modern life.
"It's a cliche (陈词滥调），but we need to promote the idea of life-long learning as an attitude in our children-the sense that things are not over when one test has been done, one race has been won or lost, "says Nordin-Bates. All of us can benefit from this approach to life. "It's not about being perfect, " she says. "If you want to be happy and healthy for 80-plus years then you have to focus on what you gained from an experience, rather than what grade you achieved. "

B.Perfectionism ensures people a better performance in school and in career.

【3】Which of the following statements is a good suggestion on preventing perfectionism?
A.Children should be rewarded for getting good grades.
B.Children under pressure should depend on themselves.
C.Children shouldn't feel sad even though they lose a game.
D.Children should focus more on experiences than perfection.
【4】What can be a suitable title for the passage?
