21、A friend wrote me a letter a few weeks ago. He felt hopeless at the time. He ended his letter with this question, “We can’t really change this crazy world we live in, can we?” I replied to him and started my own letter with these words, “Yes, we most certainly can!”
I can still remember someone who changed my world. She was a music teacher at my primary school. She was good at playing the guitar. I wanted to impress her. However, I didn’t know how to play any instruments.
One day, she let me try playing her guitar. I did my best, but could only sturmble along. When I was done, I put my head down. “I guess I am not very good, ” I told her. She looked at me with her kind eyes, smiled at me and said, “We are all good at something. You just need to find out what you are good at. Then, you can share it with the world.”
Those simple words changed me. They planted a seed(种子) in my soul that continues to grow to this day. They made me realize that I had something good inside me. I just had to find it and share it.
Can you change the world? Yes, you can! You can change it through one choice, one person, or one kind act at a time. All you have to do is share your goodness. Mother Teresa once said, “God doesn’t ask us to do great things, only small things with great love.” So make your love great!

23、When the weather is hot, you go to a lake or an ocean. When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel cool. Why? The sun makes the earth(地面) hot but it cannot make the water very hot. Although the air over the earth becomes hot, the air over the water stays cool. The hot air over the earth goes up. Then the cool air over the water moves in and takes the place of the hot air. When it moves in, you will feel the wind. And the wind makes you cool.
Of course, scientists cannot answer all of our questions. If we ask “Why is the ocean full of salt(盐)?”, scientists will say that the salt comes from rocks. When a rock gets very hot or very cold, it cracks (断裂). Rain falls into the cracks and then carries the salt into the ocean. But then we ask, “What happens to the salt in the ocean?” The ocean does not get saltier every year. Scientists are not sure about the answer to this question.
We know a lot about our world. But there are still many answers which we don't have and are curious (好奇的) about.

24、 Most children don't enjoy doing housework. They like playing computer games rather than cleaning the rooms. But in Australia, Jim and Robert's mother, Mrs. Black, has good and proper methods to get their children to do housework.
Here is an example.
"Mom, have you worked out next week's housework? Let Jim and me choose the cards. I can't wait. It's fun!" When Robert shouted out, his mother had already put all the cards on their big table. On the cards, there are some words like these, "sweep the floor, clean your bedroom, help mom cook, wash vegetables, make beds, feed the fish, cut the wood, clean the bathroom" and many others. Jim and Robert chose two cards for each day from Monday to Friday. Then they would hang them on the weekday task board. Jim likes to clean the bathroom, so he picked up the card "clean the bathroom". Robert loves to make the bed so he picked up his favorite card. Jim again picked up "wash vegetables” and Robert chose "feed the fish". Soon the two boys were happy to take away all the cards.
To help the children do housework, their mother thought hard and came up with this idea. Of course, the parents did the housework on the weekends and left Jim and Robert two days free.

25、阅读下面短文,按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求,在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空(每空不多于3个单词)。
Students these days often have a lot of 【1】(worry). Sometimes they have problems with their schoolwork, and sometimes with their friends. 【2】 can they do with them?Some people think the worst thing is to do nothing. Laura Mills, a teenager from Washington, agrees. “In life, there are always problems and worries,” says Laura. “But I think 【3】(communicate) with someone helps a lot. If we don't talk to anyone, I'm sure we'll feel worse.” Sally once lost her wallet, and worried for days. She was afraid to tell her parents 【4】 it. She even walked several miles to school each day 【5】 she didn't have any money. She just kept thinking, “If I tell my parents, they'll be angry!” But at last she talked to her parents and they were 【6】(real) understanding. Her dad said he himself sometimes made mistakes, too. They bought her a new wallet and asked her 【7】(be) more careful. Robert Hunt advises students about common problems. He feels the same way 【8】 Sally. “We should always try to do something with 【9】(problem).” He thinks that you can first find someone to talk to. This person doesn't need to be an expert like him. Students often forget that their parents are always there to help them. In English, we say that talking about a problem with parents or friends is like 【10】(cut) it in half. So next time you meet a problem, do like that. I hope you can get on well with everyone and everything.
