21、   Once there lived a wise man. However, his son was very lazy and did nothing all day.

The wise man was worried about his son's future. One day, he said to his son, "I want you to go and find some treasure. I have drawn a map to guide you." Then he handed his son a bag. Inside the bag were clothes, some food, a little money and the map.

The son set out the next day. He had to travel across forests, rivers and mountains. Along the way, he was helped by some with food and by some with shelter(住所). He met some robbers(强盗) who tried to rob him. He also saw changing scenery(风景) and seasons.

Finally, after a long year, he got to the place his father said. He spent two days looking and digging for the treasure, but found nothing.

Disappointed, he headed back to his home. On his way back, he experienced the same scenery. Sometimes, he would stop to enjoy the beauty of nature. He also learned to hunt and make meals. He had to fix his own clothes. He was now able to tell time by looking at where the sun was. He met the same people who had helped him earlier. This time, he stayed and helped them in order to say thank you.

When he got home, he said sorry to his father for not finding the treasure.

22、   Thinking about my time in France, I noticed quite a few differences between the French and the English.

The first example is about the French language. In French, there are two ways to say ‘you’: ‘tu’ is  the informal  (不正规的) form, while ‘vous’ is the formal form. When I learnt French, I was taught to call everyone ‘vous’ unless ( 除 非 ) they were my family or a friend. So I was surprised that everyone in France used the informal ‘tu’ all the time. School children used ‘tu’ with their teachers as well as the head teacher. Even strangers I met in the street would call me ‘tu’, and sometimes ‘tu’ was written on street signs. But I continued to use ‘vous’ because I didn’t want people to think I was being impolite. To be honest, I’m thankful that in English we don’t have to worry about these things!

As you might know, school children in the UK traditionally wear school uniforms but in France pupils do not wear uniforms. It was a culture shock for me to see children wearing Spiderman T-shirts  and baggy blue  jeans while in the classroom. The final difference was the relaxed attitude at school. Teachers were never in a hurry, and  the children and teachers were given long rests and much time to eat their lunch. While  in  the  UK,  school day might seem highly pressured (有压力的).

The UK and France are only separated by a small channel of the sea, but there are many differences between the two cultures! Anyway, I cannot deny (否认) what a great chance it was to live and work in another country.

【1】Which of the following is NOT a culture shock to the writer?

A. It takes French students much time to eat lunch.

B. French students use ‘tu’ with their head teacher.

C. Students in France wear different clothes at school.

D. Teachers and students in the UK seem highly pressured.

【2】What might the writer say to his friends when he goes back to the UK?

A. It’s very fantastic  to stay in France. B. People in France are more polite than us.

C. The French culture is  just the same as ours. D. It’s more difficult to learn French in France.

【3】What is the best title of the passage?

A. Life in France B. Troubles in France

C. Cultural Differences D. Different Languages

23、   It was a windy night. The taxi driver didn’t take even one passenger all day. When he went by the train station, he saw a young man coming out with two bags in his hands. So he drove to him and asked, “Where are you going, sir？”

“To the MP Hotel,” the young man answered. When the taxi driver heard this，he didn’t feel happy any more. The young man would give him only three dollars because the hotel was near the train station. But suddenly, he had an idea. He took the young man through many streets of the big city. In thirty minutes, they arrived at the hotel. “Here we are! You should pay me seventeen dollars, please,” the taxi driver said to the young man. “What? Seventeen dollars! Do you think I’m a fool?

24、   One day in April, a special activity called“Food Street”was held on the playground at Railway No. 1 Middle School in Xi’an.

This activity was part of the English Art Festival in the school. The students in each class were divided(被划分) into some groups. Each group sold different kinds of foods. The students did the shopping and the cooking all by themselves. The students cooked delicious food such as fried chicken, potato chips and vegetables. They all worked hard and sold the food at low prices. The customers(顾客) were all students, teachers and parents. They were all pleased with the nice food.

“It’s really hard work,” said one of the students who took part in the activity. “We must make a plan before the cooking. We must know how much we should spend on the things we need. Also, we must learn how to serve customers well.”

“This activity is to give a chance to students to develop(培养) their practical abilities(实践能力),” said one teacher, “What’s more, the students will not only learn how to make money by their own hands, but also know the meaning of life. ”
