21、There are over 800 boarding schools (寄宿学校) in Britain with students from home and abroad. Boarding schools started hundreds of years ago in the country. But the earliest ones were set up for white, wealthy boys only. Now, both boys and girls can go to boarding schools from the age of 7 to 18.

British boarding schools have three terms in a school year, about 13 weeks each. Students study and live with one another. They need permission (许可) to go outside.

Most boarding schools have a “lights out” time. So when it’s time to go to bed, all the lights in the dorms go out. Some senior teaching staff (教职工) work as housemasters (舍监). Each of them takes care of 50 pupils at all times, and especially after school hours.

23、One afternoon I toured an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting. I was looking forward to a quiet view of the art works.

A young couple viewing the paintings in front of me chatted nonstop between themselves. I watched them a moment and decided the wife was doing all the talk. I admired(钦佩) the husband's patience for standing her continuous talk. Distracted(分心) by their noise, I moved on.

I met with them several times as I moved through the different rooms of art. Each time I heard her constant(不变的；持续的) burst of words, I_moved_away_quickly．

I was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop buying things when the couple came near to the exit. Before they left, the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white object. He extended(伸展) it into a long stick and then tapped his way into the coatroom to get his wife's jacket.

“He's a brave man.” The clerk at the counter said, “Most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age. During his recovery he made a promise that his life wouldn't change. So, as before, he and his wife come in whenever there's a new art show.”

“But what does he get out of the art？” I asked, “He can't see.”

“Can't see? You're wrong. He sees a lot. More than you or I do.” The clerk said, “His wife describes each painting, so he can see it in his head.”

I learned something about patience, courage and love that day. I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without sight and the courage of a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life. And I saw the love shared by two people as I watched this couple walk away hand in hand.

【1】The young couple were at an art museum ________．

A. was not born blind   B. couldn't stand his wife

C. knew nothing about art   D. completely depended on his wife

【4】After hearing what the clerk had said about the couple, the writer was ________．

A. encouraged   B. excited   C. touched   D. angry

【5】The passage is mainly about ________．

A. the importance of art   B. good manners in public

24、Swimming and English Learning

Can you swim? Do you like swimming? Yes? Well, how can you learn to swim? I think the best way is to go into the water and learn. I’m afraid you’ll never learn to swim just by reading books about swimming or looking at others swimming. It’s the same with the English study. We must practice, practice and practice.

Listening and speaking are very important for beginners. The children in English-speaking countries first listen to others. Then they try to imitate and speak. We can listen to English programs on radio. You may just understand a few words. It doesn’t matter. Just be relaxed, try to catch every word.

Somebody may be a good listener. But he dare not speak. He’s afraid of making mistakes. You know we sometimes make mistakes when we speak Chinese. Don’t be afraid. We must be brave. If you really want to learn English well, you must try to speak with everyone so long as he knows English. Remember, the more you speak, the fewer mistakes you’ll make.

Reading and writing are more important for senior school students. First we must choose the books we are interested in. A lot of reading will improve your language sense. This is the most important.

Keeping writing English diaries. We can also write English articles. You may even post them to English magazines. Don’t be afraid of failure. Failure is the mother of success.

Easier said than done. Well, let’s do more practice from now on. I’m sure you’ll learn English well in this way.

【1】You can learn to swim by ________.

A．reading books about

B．looking at others swimming

C．having lessons on it

D．going into the river and learning

【2】We should learn English by ________.

A．listening and speaking

B．looking at others swimming

C．A and B

D．swimming

【3】What will you do with mistakes when you speak?

A．Don’t make mistakes.

B．Study hard.

C．Try not to speak English.

D．Don’t be afraid.

【4】What’s more important for senior school students?

A．listening

B．speaking

D．learning

【5】We can listen to English ________ according to the passage.
