Steve Jobs was the former CEO of the Apple computer company which was set up in his parents’ garage(车库) on April Fool’s Day, 1976. Through many years’ hard work, Jobs and his Apple products were a great success. People believe he has made the world a better place.

22、Dear human beings,

1 hesitated (犹豫) a lot before writing this letter. All I want to do is to ask you to have a look at your life. But I’m not sure whether or not you’ll pay attention to me.

I’m a pretty old tree now. I’m 80 years old. So I’ve seen much of the world. We’ve lived on Earth with you for thousands of years. Each day we release oxygen and remove harmful gas so that you have pure air. We cool the air so that you don’t have to run your air conditioners all the time. We help prevent the soil from being washed away. And above all, we give all kinds of fruit, nuts, beans as well as wood to you.

We like the world，we like you human beings. But you’ve never been interested in us. For example, do you know how amazing we are? Do you know that, just like you, we trees are communicating with one another? And a tree can warn its neighbors of danger if insects attack it? And some of us pass nutrients (养分) and water around by joining our roots together underground? I suppose you don’t. We are now in great danger because of you. You are, in fact, destroying us at a terrible speed. You are burning and cutting down millions of us each year, hut you’re not planting enough. For every tree being planted today, 30 trees are being cut down. What would you do if all of us died? Perhaps you would die, too. Without us, you wouldn’t get the ingredients for some of your important medicines, you wouldn’t have enough material for buildings, furniture, paper products, and your cities would look ugly. In addition, air pollution and noise pollution would become more and more serious，and your life would turn nasty….

Well, the list could go on forever, but I think I should stop. The best thing for you to do now is to stop destroying us and start protecting the environment, because we are the best fighters against pollution and we are your best friends!

I wish all the best for you，and good luck!

Your friend,

An old tree

23、   Some people like to get up early, but some do not. In fact, it is really good for us to get up early every day. Maybe those who don’t like getting up early will not believe this, but it is true. Scientists made a survey（调查）in about one thousand people, and then they found that early rising people had less disease than late rising people, and early rising people also looked healthier than late rising people, and so on.

So we may know early rising is helpful in more than one way. Firstly, it helps to keep us healthy. We all need fresh air. And air is the freshest early in the morning. Besides, it is useful to do morning exercises.

Secondly, early rising helps us in our studies. In the morning we learn more quickly and find it easier to understand what we learn.

Thirdly, early rising can give us a plan of our work for the day. We cannot work well without a good plan.

Fourthly, early rising gives us enough time to get ready for our work, such as to wash our hands and faces and eat our breakfast.

Late risers may find it difficult to form the habit of early rising. They have to make an effort（努力）to do so. As the English proverb（谚语）says, “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.”

【1】We may read this passage in a  ________ magazine.

A.health B.sports C.music D.travel

【2】Air is the freshest  ________ according to the passage.

A.in the morning B.in the afternoon C.in the evening D.all day

【3】Which of the following is NOT the result of early rising?

A.People can get ready for their work. B.People can get fresh air.

C.People can learn things more quickly and better. D.People can have enough food for breakfast.

A.easy B.difficult C.happy D.sad

24、Henry was a carpenter (木匠) of our village. Once I asked him to make a dining table for my wife. He made it just the right size to fill the space between the two windows. When I arrived home that evening, Henry was drinking a cup of tea and writing out his bill for his work.

My wife said to me quietly, “That’s his ninth cup of tea today.” But she said loudly,

“It’s a beautiful table, dear, isn’t it?”

“I won’t decide about that until I see that bill,” I said.

Henry laughed and gave me his bill for the work. It said:

When I was looking at the bill, Henry said, “It’s a fine day, isn’t it? Quite sunny.”

“Yes,” I said. “I’m glad it is only the 10th of June.”

“Me too,” said Henry. “You wait—it’ll be a bit hotter by the end of the month.”

“Yes. Hotter—and more expensive. Dining tables will be 20 more expensive on June 30th, won’t they, Henry?”

Henry looked hard at me for half a minute. There was a little smile in his two blue eyes. I gave his bill back to him.

“If it isn’t too much trouble, Henry,” I said. “Please add it up again. You can forget the date.”

I paid him 26.50 and he was happy to get it.
