21、One afternoon many years ago, I sat down on a bench in a park and watched a little boy, around 2 years old, running freely on the grass as his mother watched from a short distance. The boy would fall to the grass, get up, and without looking back at his mother, run as fast as he could as if nothing had happened.

When kids fall down, they don’t think of the fall as a failure. Instead, they consider it as a learning experience. They try and try again until they succeed.

While I was touched(感动的) by the boy’s strong mind, I was also touched by the way he ran. With each attempt, he looked so confident and natural. He only wanted to run freely and to do it as well as he could. He was just being a child – just being himself – being completely in the moment. He never gave up. Each time he fell, he got himself back up again, as if he knew that falling down was simply a part of life.

He was not looking for others’ smiles, or worrying about whether someone was watching or not. He only wanted to run and to feel the experience of running fully and freely. I learned a lot from that experience, and have successfully brought that lesson with me in many parts in my life.

【1】From Paragraph 1, we know that the boy’s mother ______.

A. was strict with him B. had a special way to educate her son

C. didn’t love her son as much as others D. was too weak to help her son get up

【2】The underlined word “attempt” in Paragraph 3 may mean “______”.

A. try B. help C. support D. mistake

【3】The writer was touched by the boy because the boy ______.

A. might stop running when he fell down

B. never fell down if he made up his mind to run

C. didn’t care about the fall and went on running

D. was good at running and never fell down

【4】What can we learn from the story?

A. Falling down will make a person feel frightened from then on.

B. Falling down is the mother of success.

C. When others are watching, people fall down easily.

D. One will succeed if he / she is confident and never gives up.

22、Sun Ke and other 16 students from Beijing University spent one year as teaching volunteers in the country’s underdeveloped western areas. That was the 13th such team that the university had sent student volunteers to teach for one year in Tibet, Qinghai, Yunnan, Xinjiang, Ningxia and Shanxi since 1999.

Sun Ke volunteered as a geography teacher at a middle school in Tibet. One day, he asked each of the students to buy a map for geography studies, but only three students bought the map because they were poor.

Sun decided to buy the maps for the students with his own money. “When I walked into the classroom with the maps, they broke into tears, and so did I,” Sun said.

24、

Bananas are the perfect snack. Not only are they sweet and delicious, but they are easy to carry around, so you can take them anywhere. Best of all, bananas provide different things that the human body needs!

Bananas grow best in warm places that get lots of rain. They grow on plants that look like trees. The banana plant, however, is considered a herb rather than a tree because it doesn’t have a strong, woody stem. The plants can grow as high as 30 feet. When they reach their full height, flowers grow out from the stem. These flowers produce bananas.

Two or three times each year, the plants produce fruit. The bananas grow together, which seem like “hands”. A “hand” is made up of 10 to 20 bananas. Growers sometimes call bananas “fingers”. Each bunch(丛) of bananas has about 15 “hands”, and so a whole bunch may have as many as 200 bananas and can weigh more than 100 pounds.

After about three months, the bananas are ready to be picked. At this point, they still aren’t the sunny yellow colour of bananas. Farmers pick them when they’re green. That’s how they’re shipped to stores. They turn yellow along the way and are ready to be sold.

If you love bananas, you’ve got a lot of company. Americans have been enjoying bananas since the first shipment arrived in the United States in 1876. Today, Americans eat more bananas than any other fruit. More bananas are sold than apples and grapes together. Every American eats over 26 pounds of bananas each year!

【1】The first paragraph mainly talks about ________.

A．why people like bananas

B．how bananas taste

C．what bananas are rich in

D．where bananas are taken

【2】Where do bananas grow best?

A．In warm places that get lots of rain.

B．In dry places that get no rain.

C．In cold places that have no sunlight.

D．In hot places that have a lot of sunlight.

【3】What is the correct order in which these ________ happen?

a. The bananas begin to turn yellow.

b. A banana plant grows to full height.

c. The flowers produce bananas.

d. The bananas are ready to be picked.

A．c-b-a-d

B．b-c-d-a

C．b-c-a-d

D．c-b-d-a

【4】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A．The banana plant is a kind of tree.

B．Bananas like growing in hot and dry areas.

C．One bunch of bananas may weigh over 100 pounds.

D．The banana plant usually produces fruit once a year.

【5】Which is the second most popular fruit in America according to the bar chart?

B．Grapes.

C．Bananas.

D．Oranges.

25、Do you get angry when your friends sing loudly while you are trying to work or when your best friend does not wait for you after school?

If you do, you need to take control of your feelings. Getting angry with others can cause you to l【1】 friends.

Cary Egeberg, an American high school teacher, has written a book named My Feelings Are Just Like Wild Animals to help you control your feelings. The book tells how to stay cool when b【2】 things happen.

The book says that getting angry only makes problems w【3】. It can never make them better. “Getting angry is not a natural way to act,” the book says. “It is just a habit, like smoking.’’

The book says you can control you feelings e【4】—all you have to do is to tell yourself not to be angry.

The book gives many tips to help you if you get angry frequently. Here are the top three:

● Keep a r【5】. Every time you get angry, write down why you are angry. Look at it later and you will see you get angry so often.

● Ask your friends to s【6】 talking to you when you get angry. Leave you alone. This will teach you not to be angry.

● Do something d【7】. When you get angry, walk away from the problem and go somewhere else. Try to laugh.
