22、阅读下面短文，把A--E五个句子填入文中空缺处，使短文内容完整、正确。1-5

On the suburb(郊区) of a town in England, there lived an old man in a nice house with a large garden.【1】He watered and fertilized(施肥) them.

One day a young man went by the garden. He looked at the beautiful flowers, imaging how happy he could be if he lived in such a beautiful place.【2】He was very surprised about this and asked, “You can’t see these flowers, why do you take notice of them every day?”

The old man smiled and said, “I can tell you four reasons. First, I was a gardener since I was young, and I really like this job. Second,【3】Third, I can smell the sweetness of them. As for the last one, that’s you.”

“Me? But you don’t know me,” said the young man.

“Yeah, it’s true that I don't know you. But I know that flowers are angles(天使) that everyone knows.【4】”

The blind man’s work opened our eyes and pleased our hearts, which also made his life happier. It was just like Beethoven.【5】Beethoven himself couldn’t hear his wonderful music, but his music has encouraged millions of people to face their difficulties bravely. Isn’t it one kind of happiness?

A. He cared for his flowers all the time.

B. I can touch them though I can’t see these flowers.

C. Then, suddenly he found the old gardener was blind.

D. We enjoy the happiness which these flowers have brought us.

E. He couldn’t hear anything in his later life and wrote great musical works.

23、"Beep, beep," goes- the car horn (喇叭). You’ve got dressed，but you’ve not had time to eat breakfast. You run out of the front door swinging(摇摆) your school backpack，and jump into the waiting car. Inside, your friends say " hey" as one  of their parents drives you to school. 【1】  

Car pools (拼车) are a common way of transportation for many students in the US. You，along with many of your friends can fit in the car, and share the journey to school each day. 【2】

What do friends do in the car？【3】   If you' re behind on your homework，this is your last chance to finish it before class. Some students simply add to their sleep time before classes begin.

Besides walking or cycling to class，car pools are energy efficient(节能的) if you can' t take the school bus. Instead of four cars taking four students to school each day，they can all squeeze (挤) into one. 【4】.

More importantly，car pooling teaches students valuable life lessons not taught in class. It can teach students about the social responsibility of being on time.

【5】   If you ' re late ,then  all of your friends will be late too.

24、Mariam was five years old the first time she heard the word harami. It happened on a Thursday. It must have, because Mariam remembered that she had been restless that day, the way she was only on Thursdays, the day when Jalil visited her.

To pass the time until the moment that she would see him at last, Mariam had climbed a chair and taken down her mother’s Chinese tea set. It was the only thing that Mariam’s mother, Nana, had of her own mother, who had died when Nana was two. It was this last piece that slipped from Mariam’s fingers, that fell to the ground and broke.

When Nana saw the bowl, her face turned red, grabbed Mariam by the wrists, pulled her close, and, through gritted teeth, said, “You are a silly little harami!”

At the time, Mariam didn’t know what this word meant. It was the way Nana said the word—not so much saying it as shouting it at her—that made Mariam feel the full pain of it. She understood then that a harami was an unwanted thing.

Jalil never called Mariam this name.

Jalil had three wives and nine children, all of whom were strangers to Mariam. He was one of Herat’s wealthiest and best-connected men. He had a cook, a driver, and three housekeepers. Nana had been one of the housekeepers.

When Nana said something bad about Jalil, Mariam never had courage to tell her how much she disliked it. But the truth was that around Jalil, Mariam didn’t feel at all like a harami. When Jalil came to see her, all smiles and gifts, Mariam felt all the beauty and generosity that life had to give. For this, Mariam loved Jalil.

EVEN IF SHE had to share him.

【1】What can we know about Mariam according to the passage?

A．She liked her mother’s Chinese tea set very much.

B．She had no courage to tell Jalil she actually liked him.

C．She said something really bad to her mother in her face.

D．She was hurt by the way her mother called her harami.

【2】How did Nana feel when calling Mariam harami?

A．Scared and sad.

B．Nervous and hurt.

C．Worried and heartbroken.

D．Angry and dissatisfied.

【3】What can we infer from the last three paragraphs?

A．Jalil actually loved Nana more than Mariam.

B．Mariam felt loved and satisfied with Jalil around.

C．Mariam often played outside with her brothers and sisters.

D．Jalil was the wealthiest and best-connected man in Herat.

25、A boy called Mike had many friends, and he was proud of them. Whoever he met, he would like to show off how popular he was at school.

One day, his grandpa said to him, “Mike, I know that you don’t have as many friends as you think. Many of them are not true to you.” Mike thought maybe his grandpa was right. However, he wasn’t sure how he could test whether his schoolmates were real friends or not, so he asked his grandpa. The old man answered, “I have just exactly what you need. It’s in my room. Wait a minute.” The old man left, soon returning as if carrying something in his hand, but Mike could see nothing there. Take it. It’s a very special chair. Because it’s invisible, it will be hard for you to sit on it. However, if you manage to sit on it, you can use the chair’s magic power to tell who your real friends are. Mike took the strange invisible chair to school. At break time, he asked everyone to form a circle, and he put himself in the middle, with his chair. “Nobody moves. You’re about to see something amazing!” said Mike. Then he tried sitting on the chair. Having difficulty seeing it, he missed and fell to the ground. Everyone had a pretty good laugh. “Wait, wait,” said Mike, making another try. But again he missed the chair.

Mike didn’t give up. He kept trying to sit on the magic chair. Finally, he did it. This time he felt himself in mid-air. Then he experienced the magic that his grandpa had been talking about. Looking around, Mike saw George, Lucas and Diana holding him up, so he wouldn’t fall. But some schoolmates whom he had seen as friends had done nothing but made fun of him.
