21、A group of swans flew down to a beach where a crow(乌鸦)was jumping around. The crow watched them with disdain(鄙视).

"You have no flying skills at all!” he said to the swans. “All you can do is to move your wings. Can you turn over in the air? No, that's what you can’t do. Let's have a flying competition. I'll show you what real flying is ! "

One of the swans, a strong young male, took up the challenge(挑战). The crow flew up and began to show off his skills. He flew in circles, did other flying tricks, and then came down and looked proudly at the swan.

  Now it was the swan's turn. He flew up, and began flying over the sea. The crow flew after him, making all kinds of comments(评价)about his flying. They flew on and on until they couldn't see the land and there was nothing but water on all sides. The crow was making fewer and fewer comments. He was now so tired that he found it hard to stay in the air, and had to try to stop himself from falling into the water.

The swan pretended(假装) not to notice and said, "Why do you keep touching the water, brother? Is that another trick?"

  "No," said the crow. He knew he had lost the competition. "I'm in trouble because of my pride! If you don't help me, I'll lose my life... "

22、Do you know how to study better? Let me give you some advice on studying.

First, don’t put off studying. Many students do that. Then they have to cram (临时死记硬背) the night before the exam. In fact you need good studying habits and study a little every day. This way, you will prepare better for the exam.

Second, plan rewards into your study time. For example, if you read 20 pages of the book, you can play one computer game. But only one.

Third, stay in a quiet place and turn off your mobile phone. Then you can put your heart into your study.

Last, believe it or not, sleeping is part of studying. It can help you learn better. Try to sleep more than eight hours a night.

Take the advice, and you will study better.

Judge the following statements true (T) or false (F) according to the passage.

【1】Studying in a quiet place can help you study better.

【2】“Rewards” means doing something you like in the passage.

【3】Cramming the night before the exam is a good studying habit.

【4】Studying a little every day is good for your study.

【5】There are three pieces of advice in the passage.

23、There was a young prince who had a pet lion. The lion was his friend. Next to the lion’s cage (笼子) was a hyena (鬣狗). He hated the lion.

One day, when the prince came to play with the lion, the hyena said to the lion, “If you are the friend of the prince, why does he keep you in a cage? The reason, Lion, is because of your big teeth.”

The prince laughed and said, “No, it’s not because of his teeth!”

“Then it’s because of his claws (爪),” the hyena said to the prince.

The prince laughed again. “No, it’s not because of his claws. I trust the lion will not hurt me. The reason he’s in the cage is that I’m afraid that if I let him out, he’d see how wonderful it is to be free, and he would leave me. I couldn’t stand that.”

The hyena said, “Oh, but you’re wrong! We’d never leave. Open my cage and I’ll show you.”

The prince opened the cage and the hyena jumped on the prince at once.

All at once, the lion jumped out of his cage and caught the hyena. The hyena tried hard to escape (逃跑) and the lion let him run off at last.

The prince was shocked and asked, “Lion, how did you get out?”

The lion replied, “My prince, I can always leave if I want. I have stayed here because we are friends.”
