21、       Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true.

       Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it’s hard for you to communicate with your parents, don’t worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代沟).

       Don’t argue (争辩) with your parents. Don’t get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don’t think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.

       Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael’s mother didn’t agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.

       Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.

       Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.

       A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!

22、Albert Einstein and Wolfgang Mozart are possibly the two most famous examples of people who are geniuses (天才). But unlike Mozart, Einstein wasn’t as talented as a kid. Born in Germany in 1879, he was slow to learn to speak, and he was a normal student at school. He was interested in math and science, but he liked to study at home better. Later, he studied to be a teacher, but he didn’t find a job in a school and for some years he was an office worker. A lot of Einstein’s most famous ideas were the result of study in his free time, when he also played the violin to relax.

From 1908, he was a university teacher for many years, first in Europe and then in the US. He was the winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921. He was famous for his theory of relativity (相对论), but only several scientists could understand it. His biggest dream was to find one explanation for the basic (基础的) ideas in physics, but he died before this was possible.

As a famous scientist, Einstein got letters from people around the world. Some of the letters were from children and he always answered them. One letter was from a girl with math problems at school. “Do not worry about your difficulties in math” was his answer. “I can tell you that mine are still greater.”

Einstein died in a hospital in 1955. He was named “Person of the Century” in 1999 by Time Magazine.

A．liked to study at home

D．79

A．Two Great Geniuses

D．Einstein’s Answer to a Letter

23、   One day, while I was waiting for my father, I saw a little boy about two years old. He was running freely on the grass as his mother watched near him. The boy had a big smile on his face. The boy then fell to the grass, got up without looking back at his mother and ran as fast as possible. It seemed that nothing had happened to him.

At that moment, I thought to myself, “Why aren’t most adults (成年人) this way?” When most adults fall, they would be so embarrassed (尴尬的) that they would not make a second attempt if someone saw them fall. Or, because they fall, they would find a good reason for themselves that they’re not fit for it. They would give up trying again for fear of failure.

However, when kids fall, they don’t regard (认为) their falling down as a failure. Instead, they regard it as a learning experience. They try again and again until  they succeed. The answer must be that they have not connected (联系) “falling down” with the word “failure”. What’s more, they may think to themselves that it’s quite normal to fall down and that it’s right to do so. In other words, they are not frightened of making mistakes, so they stay active.

I was deeply moved by the boy’s persistence (坚持不懈).

【1】What did the little boy do when he fell down?

A.He cried and lay on the grass B.He asked his mother for help

C.He got up and went on running D.He got up and stood there crying

【2】In the writer’s opinion (观点), what might the little boy treat his falling as?

A.A failure. B.A joke.

C.An interesting game. D.A learning experience.

【3】According to the writer, why can’t many adults succeed?

A.Because they are afraid of being embarrassed

B.Because they can’t find a good reason for themselves

C.Because once they fail, they won’t try again

D.Because they are not afraid to make mistakes

【4】The underlined word “attempt” in Paragraph 2 means________.

A.尝试 B.放弃 C.面对 D.怀疑

【5】What does the writer want to tell us?

A.Practice makes perfect. B.Failure is the mother of success.

C.One tree can’t make a forest. D.Each coin has two sides.

24、   A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer’s showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted. As Graduation Day approached the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautifully wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young man’s name embossed in gold. Angry, he raised his voice to his father and said "With all your money, you give me a Bible? " and stormed out of the the house. Leaving the Bible.

Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and wonderful family, but realized his father was very old, and thought perhaps he should go to him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things. When he arrived at his father’s house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his father’s important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. And as he did, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a tag with the dealer’s name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation and the words PAID IN FULL. How many times do we miss Spirit's blessings and answers to our prayers because they do not arrive exact as we have expected?

【1】What does the underlined “it” refer to?

A.the Bible B.car key

C.a tag D.the dealer's name

【2】We can infer from the passage that________ .

A.The father was not rich enough to buy the sports car.

B.The father bought his son only a Bible for his graduation.

C.The father only left the sports car for his son when he passed away.

D.The son was very sorry that he didn’t open the Bible and turn the pages on the Graduation Day.

25、March 5 is “Lei Feng Day”. It started more than fifty years ago. Now over half a c【1】has passed, is the spirit（精神）of Lei Feng outdated（过时的）? Some people have shown us that it is not. But people have also c【2】 the ways in which they help others.

Zhao has been a volunteer for 18 years. She still r【3】 her experience at an old people’s home several years ago. An old man held her hand and said, “You don’t need to do a【4】 for us. Seeing young people here is all we need.”

Those words made Zhao t【5】: In what ways can we help people better? “Before we give a helping hand, we should find out what they w【6】 ,”Zhao said to Qilu Evening News. Besides Zhao, other people have shown their understanding of the spirit of Lei Feng. In January 2013,“noodle fever” swept Zhengzhou, Henan. One local man, Li Gang,42, said in his post that he had a s【7】 disease and needed a lot of money for an operation. However, what he asked for wasn’t charity, b【8】 for more people to eat noodles at his restaurant. Li’s post spread q【9】. Soon his restaurant was filled with customers（顾客）every day and Li was able to a【10】 to have his operation on February 2. In this way, people could help Li without hurting his dignity（自尊）.
