21、When to Start Growing Seeds(种子(Indoors for Your Garden
February marks the halfway point of winter in the northern part of the world. With spring arriving soon, many people are dreaming of working in their gardens on warm, sunny days. Some gardeners like to start the growing season early.【1】
It is important to know when to start growing your seeds indoors. The answer depends on where you live. Gardeners use the average last cold date in their area to help them know when to begin growing seeds.
After finding your start date, it is important to respect it. If you start too soon, plants likely will grow weak and struggle to do well. If you start too late, your harvest will be put off.
【2】You can use things like recycled yogurt(酸奶)or egg containers．Each container should have a hole in the bottom for water to flow through.
Fill each container with a clean, wet, soilless seed-starting mix.【3】It depends on the seed kind and size. Water the seeds as needed to keep the mix from drying out. Cover the seed containers tightly. Put them in a warm place out of direct sunlight.
When seedlings first appear, remove the covering and put containers by a sunny window. You can also put them under special lighting devices called grow lamps for 14 hours a day.【4】Costly lamps are not necessary.
If several seedlings come up in each container, cut the weakest at the soil line using small scissors(剪子)【5】 If you let more than one seedling remain, the roots may become mixed together. The young plants might not survive.
A．Ordinary lights will work.
B．Place one to four seeds in each container.
C．Put them in a warm place out of direct sunlight.
D．The aim is to keep only one strong-looking plant.
E．Leave them there for an hour and then bring them back inside.
F．They can do this by growing plants from seed inside their home.
G．While you are waiting, find and prepare your growing containers.

23、My family moved from Taiwan to a small town in central Georgia, where my dad got a visa for his family and a job. I had just learned English, and from what little I could gather from my classmates, Santa Claus would come down one’s chimney and put toys in one’s stocking on Christmas Eve! What a great country, I thought. After I looked up “stocking” in my Chinese-English dictionary, I knew what I had to do.
On that fateful night, after everyone went to bed, I took my longest, cleanest knee sock and attached it to a nail already on the mantel(壁炉). Obviously, the previous owners of this house were no strangers to this Santa character.
I woke up before everyone else on Christmas Day and ran to the fireplace. To make a sob story short, I was hit with the reality of an empty sock and the biggest lie ever told. I burst into tears, quickly took down the sock, and stuffed it in the back of a drawer. Santa was dead.
Every December since then, the topic of Christmas memories would unavoidably come up, and I would amuse my friends with my poor-little-me story. I had to make it as funny as possible, or else I would cry.
How could I know that Santa was just late? Nine years ago, on Christmas Eve, an older man with a white beard and a red cap knocked on my front door. He said, “I’ve been looking for you for twenty-five years.” He handed me a bulging red stocking, winked, and left. On top of the stocking was a card. It read: “For Becky—I may have missed you in the second grade, but you’ve always lived in my heart. Santa.”
Through tear-blurred eyes, I recognized the handwriting of Jill, a friend I had met just two months before. I later discovered that the older man was her father. Jill had seen the hurt little girl underneath the thirty-something woman and decided to do something about it.
So now I believe that Santa is real. I don’t mean the twinkle-eyed character of children’s mythology or the creation of American holiday marketers. Those Santas annoy and sadden me. I believe in the Santa Claus that live inside good and thoughtful people. This Santa does not return to the North Pole after a crazy delivery but lives each day purposefully, really listens to friends, and then plans deliberate acts of kindness.
【1】What does the underlined part “what I had to do” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Waiting for Santa Claus.
B. Putting a stocking on the mantel.
C. Asking for gifts from her parents.
D. Looking up “stocking” in the dictionary
【2】It can be inferred from the passage that the author’s parents ________.
A. didn’t love their child at all
B. didn’t know the previous owners of the house
C. didn’t know much about Christmas tradition
D. didn’t have enough money to buy the author Christmas presents
【3】When the author told her friends about the story, she felt ________ in her heart.
A. proud B. amusing C. hate D. regret
【4】The author of the passage is probably ________.
A. a teenager B. a primary school student
C. a middle-aged woman D. a native American
24、How to Travel in Time
The term “NOSTALGIA”(怀旧)used to describe a mental disease. The “algia” bit means “pain”, and the word was coined by a 17th-century doctor treating homesick soldiers, whose symptoms included hallucinations(幻觉)and depression.【1】And it’s a great example of the benefits of a strong memory — choosing to recapture moments from the past to enjoy them all over again.
As evidence, a recent report highlighted the increase in old songs being streamed on Spotify during lockdown. It seems that we found strength in musical memories of happier times.【2】Because memory skills can take you into the future, too — bringing a whole new set of rewards.
In another pandemic experiment, people wrote letters to their future selves, and found that they improved their mood by imagining themselves safely on the other side of COVID-19. Here are my tips for becoming a confident time traveller yourself:
*To reawaken happy feelings, use all your senses—not just sight. Smell, taste, touch and sound will also help you to recreate the past in rich clarity. If you find a memory that’s particularly helpful — for reassurance, say — keep using it！【3】
* When you’re procrastinating(拖延), visualise an end result. Flash forward to see the floor swept or the essay finished, and use that positive image to spur you into action.
* Ahead of major challenges, imagine the full impact of success. Don’t just picture yourself getting that great job: fill your mind with the really big ways it’s going to change your life.
【4】But the more you learn to control your memory, the better you’ll be at mining your past, and shaping your future, to be your best self now.
A．There’ll still be times when old thoughts cause sadness, or you’re anxious about what’s next.
B．The usefulness of nostalgia seems to vary with age.
C．Today we have a much more positive attitude to nostalgia.
D．You’ll get faster at finding it, and add extra layers of detail each time.
E．The answer lies in connecting with your past and future selves.
F．But there’s also a growing body of research into time travel “the other way”.
