21、Every year on my birthday, from the time I turned 15, a white gardenia(栀子花) was delivered to my house. No card came with it. Calls to the flower shop were not helpful at all. After a while I stopped trying to find out the sender’s name and was just pleased with the beautiful white flower wrapped in soft pink paper.

I never stopped imagining who the giver might be, though. Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about the sender. My mother encouraged these daydreams. She’d ask me if I had been especially kind to someone. Perhaps it was one of my classmates. Perhaps it was the old man who lived across the street. I’d delivered his mails during the winter.

One month before my high school graduation, my father died. I was so sad that I became completely uninterested in my upcoming graduation dance, and I didn’t care whether I had a new dress or not. My mother, in her own sadness, however, would not let me miss any of those things. She wanted her children to feel loved. In fact, my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gardenia: lovely, strong and perfect with perhaps a bit of mystery (神秘).

I got married at the age of 25. My mother died ten years after I was married. That was the year the gardenia stopped coming.

22、One day, a boy had a fight with one of his classmates. He didn’t wait until school was over, and hurried home to his grandfather. He told him his story angrily. “He is really bad,” the boy said, “and I hate him.”

The grandfather said, “Let me tell you a story. When I was a boy, I, too, sometimes hated others for what they did…”

As the boy listened carefully, the grandfather went on, “There are always two tigers inside my heart. One is good and kind. He gets on well with everything around him. But the other is bad and unfriendly. Even the smallest thing will make him angry. He fights with everyone all the time, and for no reason. He can’t think carefully because he always hates others. It is difficult to live with these two tigers inside my heart. They both try to control me.”

The boy looked into his grandfather’s eyes and asked, “Which tiger always controls you, grandfather?”

The old man said slowly and seriously, “The one that I feed. I always feed the good and kind tiger, so I never hate others and seldom get angry now.”

23、Hope matters

Reyes Guana, 42, grew up in a poor Mexican family. He has seven brothers and sisters. His parents always had two jobs to make ends meet.

As a boy, Guana had a good relationship with the school cleaner. He called her “Nike” because she wore Nike shoes. The boy liked how Nike made everything clean. He told her he wanted to be a cleaner, too. “Well, it’s good if you want to be a cleaner,” Nike told little Guana. “But make sure you go to college.”

Guana also looked up to the principal（校长）of his school. The school leader told the boy that his job was to help students and teachers. “Wow, when I grow up, I want to do what you’re doing,” Guana told him. “Well, if you stick to your dream, you will,” the principal replied.

And Guana really got there. But it was quite a long journey for him. Twenty-three years ago, he followed in Nike’s footsteps and was cleaning schools. He worked at three schools to pay for his college education. He held that job for four years and then worked his way up to being a school safety monitor. After that, he worked as a teacher for a few years.

Now, as a principal, Guana never forgets where he came from. He helps students from poor families and shows respect（尊重）for every school staff member. He always invites everyone to school parties, including those who clean the floors and those who drive the school buses.

24、   Many kids help parents to do chores in the house. They may take out the trash, walk the dog or sweep the floor. In return, some kids get money or other rewards from their parents, such as 20 minutes to play computer games.

But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. One of them is Jane Smith, a parenting educator and family coach. She believes if kids get rewards, they may think that work isn't worth doing unless they get something in return. For example, kids won't sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will do it if their parents reward them for it.

“Every house is a team effort，” Jane said, “A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all have a responsibility to keep our home clean.”

Other people hold different opinions. They believe that money or other rewards encourage kids to do more chores. It also teaches them real world lessons. They can learn about how we need to work to make money.

Now, there are also apps that encourage kids to do chores. The apps give kids points and digital(电子的) gifts that can be used either online or in life. With the app Chore Monster, kids earn digital points after doing chores. Kids can exchange their points for real rewards, such as time to play video games or a trip to the mall. “Our goal is to encourage kids so they can earn rewards，” says Joe Black, founder of Chore Monster. “Kids need positive(积极的) power to make them do chores.”

【1】Jane Smith thinks that________.

A.housework isn't worth doing

B.kids are not willing to do chores

C.kids should get something in return

D.kids shouldn't get rewards for doing chores

【2】Chore Monster is a(n)________.

A.educator B.coach C.app D.app founder

【3】The meaning of the underlined word “responsibility” in the passage is “________”.

A.waste B.habit C.duty D.price

【4】The purpose of the apps is to________.

A.give kids points and gifts

B.encourage kids to do chores

C.exchange points for real rewards

D.give kids advice on doing chores

【5】What's the main idea of the passage?

A.How to encourage kids to do chores.

B.What kind of chores kids should do.

C.If kids should do chores at home.

D.Whether kids should be rewarded for doing chores.
