21、   Once there was a man traveling in a faraway village. As he was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped. He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains(锁链), no cages. It was clear that the elephants could, at any time, break away from their ropes but for some reason, they did not.

He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn’t try to get away. “Well,” the trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they still believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can hold them, so they never try to break free.”

How could it be? These animals could at any time break free from their ropes. But because they always stuck right where they were, they believed they couldn’t.

Just like the elephants, how many of us go through life believing that we cannot do something, just because we failed at it once before?                We should never give up the struggle(挣扎) in life.

【3】How did the man feel after he heard what the trainer said?

A．Moved

B．Surprised

23、   Hobbies are very important to a person. Without having any hobby, life won't be as colorful as it should be.

I have a number of hobbies, such as collecting stamps, playing musical instruments (乐器), reading, and doing sport activities. When I am free, I will spend time on my hobbies. When I am in a blue mood (情绪低落), I will also do my hobbies to cheer myself up.

Hobbies can help us improve our moods. Many hobbies require you to put your heart in them. For example, when you play a musical instrument, you have to practice over and over in order to perform good music. After a period if you still enjoy it, gradually it will become a hobby of yours. But remember, a hobby is like gold under the ground; no hobby will come to you unless you dig it out yourself. If you can treat study as one of your hobbies, learning will be more enjoyable. I hope all of you can find your own hobbies and also have fun from them.

【1】Hobbies sometimes can make a person ________.

A.in a blue mood B.perform good C.cheer himself / herself up

【2】How can we make our study enjoyable?

A.Practice over and over. B.Treat our study as a hobby. C.Improve our moods.

【3】Which of these is WRONG?

A.Hobbies are important for a person.

B.Playing musical instruments is a kind of hobby.

C.If we often do but never enjoy doing something, it will be our hobby someday.
