21、As a teenager, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize; or they can be small—you may just want to become the best student in your class. Once you find a dream, what do you do with it? Have you ever tried to make your dream come true?

Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, tells us that making our dreams come true is life’s biggest challenge. You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects or it is impossible for you to become a writer. These kinds of thoughts stop you from achieving your dream. In fact, everyone can make his dream come true. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want. Do this step by step and your dream will come true faster because a big dream is made up of many small dreams.

You must also never give up your dream. There will be difficulties on the road to your dream. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important.

Without dreams, you won’t make up your mind to learn more skills and new interests.

23、   When you run into(撞上)someone on the bus, will you say “Sorry”? When you get help from others, will you say “Thanks”? You will if you are polite.

We learned this in primary school（小学）, but students seem to be less and less polite as they grow up. A new survey in Guangzhou shows middle school students aren’t as polite as primary school students. At middle schools, students start to swear(说脏话)and laugh at their classmates. Some students don’t listen to others.

Wu Lin, 13, from Fujian, learned to swear in middle school. “More than 10 of 22 boys in my class often swear,” Wu said. “We just swear for fun most of the time. But later, I understood that it was bad for me. So I stopped.”

Li Fangfang, 13, from Beijing, knows that laughing at others can really hurt. “Once, a classmate put up her hand to answer a question. But she didn’t give the right answer. Then some classmates laughed at her,” Li says. “From that day on, she never puts up her hand. Those laughing kids hurt her a lot.

“Impoliteness(无礼)comes from students’ growing pains(成长的烦恼),” says Wang Yamin, a teacher of English at Xiamen University of Technology. “Some middle school students become impolite because their classmates or parents do things in that way. They think it’s cool and funny. But our people are famous for politeness. Every student should speak and do things politely to respect（尊重）others and let others respect you.”

【1】When some students grow up, they are than they are in primary school.

A. more polite B. less polite C. polite D. as polite

【2】At last, Wu Lin thought that it was   for them to swear.

A. bad B. good C. healthy D. unhealthy

【3】Li Fangfang thought that laughing at others may   others.

A. help B. stop C. hurt D. respect

【4】. The best title of the passage is   .

A. Please be polite B. Don’t swear

C. Don’t laugh at others D. Respect others

24、I will never forget the tenth summer of childhood with my grandfather in western Norway on the mountain farm where my mother was born. As a boy, I always thought people simply bought whatever they need. Whether Grandfather know this, I didn’t know. One day he said, “Come, I have something for you. ’’

I followed him to a workroom. “You should have a toy boat. You can sail it at Storvassdal,” he said. “Great,” I thought, looking around for the boat. But there was none.

Grandfather pointed to a block of wood. “The boat is there,” he said. Then he handed me some tools and showed me how to use them properly. “It’ll be a fine boat, and you’ll make it with your own hands,” he said, “No one can give you what you do for yourself.” The words rang in my head as I worked. The boat was finished. It wasn’t much to look at, but I was proud. Then I sailed it at Storvassdal.

We had to return to America. “You cannot bring that boat home with you,” my mother said. We had too much baggage. Feeling sad, I hid my boat under a big rock at Storvassdal.

I said good-bye to Grandfather, not knowing I would never see him again.

In 1964, I went to Storvassdal with my parents and my wife and children. To my surprise, for 34 years my treasure stayed here, waiting for my return. I felt we three were together again although my grandfather had died 22 years before.

I carved(雕刻) “1930” and “1964” on its side and put it back.

I returned to the lake in 1968,1971,1977 and 1988. Each time I had the boat and carved the year, my grandfather seemed near.

My last trip to Storvassdal was in 1991. I brought my granddaughters: Catherine, 13; Claire, 12. I hoped they would understand the importance of the little boat and its simple message. At Storvassdal, Claire said softly, “Grandpa, someday I’ll come back.” She added, “And I’ll bring my children.”

【1】What lesson did the writer’s grandfather probably teach him?

A．Boys should have a toy boat at childhood.

B．People can simply buy whatever they need.
