21、As a child, I was really afraid of the dark and of getting lost. These fears were very real and caused me some uncomfortable moments.

Maybe it was the strange way things looked and sounded in my own room at night that scared me so much. There was never complete darkness, but always a streetlight or passing car lights, which made clothes on the back of a chair take on the shape of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the curtains（窗帘）seem to move when there was no wind. A very low sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the day. My imagination（想象）would lie very still so that the “enemy（敌人）” would not discover me.

Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, especially on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home. That was no problem. After school, though, when all the buses were lined up along the street, I was afraid that I would get on the wrong one and be taken to some other strange places. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn’t let the leaders out of my sight.

Perhaps one of the worst fears of all I had as a child was that of not being liked or accepted by others. Being popular was so important to me then, and the fear of not being liked was a serious one.

One of the processes（过程）of growing up is being able to realize and overcome our fears. Understanding the things that scared us as children helps us achieve greater success later in life.

【1】The author had _________ kind(s) of fears when she was a child.

A．one

B．two

C．three

D．none

【2】__________ would scare the author at night.

A．Streetlights and car lights

B．Wild animals and enemies

C．Moving curtains and wind

D．Strange sights and sounds

【3】When she went to some other places, she would _________.

A．walk away without others

B．take a bus by herself

C．follow others closely

D．make sure not to take a wrong bus

【4】The underlined word “overcome” means “_______” in Chinese.

A．接受

B．忍受

C．信服

D．克服

【5】From this story we learn that it’s important to __________.

A．care for others

B．share with others

C．help others

D．scare others

25、根据短文内容及所给提示，在文中的空白处填写一个正确的单词

Sometimes, people in the USA don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, “How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a 【1】 (friend) way that people greet each other. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine.”, even i【2】 the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn’t 【3】 (real) a question and “Fine.” isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of 【4】 (say) “Hello.” or “Hi.”

People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish 【5】 (talk) with other people. For e【6】, many talks over the phone finish when one person says “I’ve got to go now.” 【7】   “Someone’s at the door.” This might be true or not.

Perhaps the person doesn’t want to talk any m【8】, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person.

W【9】 they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people don’t say exactly what they are thinking. It’s an 【10】 (importance) way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s part of the game of language.
