22、An elderly couple stood outside the door with old coats. “Any old papers, lady?” asked one of them.

I was busy. I wanted to say no, but I saw that their shoes had holes in them and they were wet. “Come in and I’ll make you a cup of tea.” They came in, saying nothing. Their shoes left prints (脚印) on the floor. I gave them tea and bread to protect them against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started my housework again.

The silence in the living room surprised me. I looked in. The woman held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The man asked me in a low voice, “Lady,are you rich?”

Am I rich? Oh, no! I looked at my old things in my room. The woman put her cup back in its saucer (茶碟) carefully and said, “Your cups match your saucers.”

Then they left, holding their papers against the wind. They didn’t say thank you. They didn’t need to. They had done more than that. They had reminded me that I had so much to thank for. The blue cups and saucers were simple. But they matched. The potatoes and meat before me, a roof over my head, my husband with a job—these things matched too.

I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The prints of their shoes were still wet on my floor. I let them there. I didn’t clear them from the floor. I wanted them there to remind me how rich I was.

23、Have you ever taken part in a marathon? A marathon is 42km long. It is the longest race in the world. To make the runner’s body work, hard training is quite necessary. A runner should start to prepare for a marathon at least three months before. Preparation may include many hours of running at different speeds and changes in diet (饮食). During the training time the runner must eat a fit diet. The diet should have lots of things needed in training.

In the early days of training, runners run 80km per week. The running is increased every two or three weeks.

Two weeks before the marathon, the training programme becomes less, from 100km per week down to 60km and then to 30km in the final week. On the last two days they may not run at all.

Breakfast should be eaten at least three hours before the race. Easily digested (消化) food such as cereal (麦片), toast (烤面包) and scrambled egg (炒蛋) is the best, with as much fluid (液体) as possible. Runners should drink water about half an hour before the race to keep up the body fluid.

24、Why think of road safety? It is because of the accidents that occur every day on the road. These accidents mean losing rife or wealth and more than traffic jams. So if people aren’t educated on the importance of road safety, the situation can’t be avoided.

Accidents have many causes. The simplest is people slipping down on the road caused by a banana skin. Without meaning any harm, a person may throw away the banana skin on the road. When a person steps on, he or she will slip down ending in broken bones and sometimes even more dangerous. So people must take care and throw them in a bin. In some countries, the offenders are seriously punished. The second cause is careless crossing in busy roads instead of crossing along zebra crossings. One should keep to the sidewalk of the road while walking and the vehicles must keep to their lanes in busy streets.

Also, there are many causes for the accidents about vehicles. One is trying to overtake. Another is not noticing the signals. “Stop, look and go” is the basic rule, it will save vehicles from accidents. Riding two or three side by side is always dangerous. Very often the cause of accidents is the failure of the brake system which means the owner of the vehicle does not keep the machine in good condition.

Road safety is a matter of education in which schools can share responsibility. Through class meetings, children can be taught the importance of observing the rules of the road. As soon as the bell goes, children rush out and accidents do happen. Therefore, teachers must feel it their day to control the traffic near the school. The polie can help schools at rush hours.

To make people aware of road safety, media can play a useful role. The newspaper, the wall poster and the cinema and now the TV can deliver information. There may be speeches over the radio by the police officials or advertisements about being careful on roads before films or TV programs.

【1】Why do we talk about road safety? Because ________.

A．people obey traffic rules

B．people like the topic.

C．people meet traffic jams

D．people cause traffic accidents.

【2】According to Paragraph 1, how can we reduce the traffic accidents on the road? We can ________.

A．take less money

B．never go out

C．be educated

D．protect ourselves

【3】What does “offenders” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A．people who step on banana skins

B．people who throw banana skins on the road

C．people who walk on zebra crossings

D．people who keep their lanes while driving

【4】How many causes for the accidents about vehicles are mentioned in Paragraph 3?

A．two

B．three

C．four

D．five

【5】According to the article, schools should take actions to help kids on roads. Which one of the following statements is not mentioned?

A．Schools manage the traffic near school.

B．Schools educate students in class.

C．Schools invite the police to make speeches.

D．Schools get help from the police during rush hours.

B．Advertisements make people realize safety.

D．Media can play a useful role to warm people.

25、   Children are amazing! They pick up languages so naturally and easily. Have you ever wondered why? It’s not because they have great natural language abilities. In fact, studies s【1】that an adult’s potential to learn language is just as good as a child’s .

So why do children still seem  to acquire(学到) language more quickly than the rest of us? It’s because of the way they learn. Children learn by simply doing what comes naturally—they listen, c 【2】 and communicate. Let’s take a c 【3】look at how children acquire language. Perhaps we can d 【4】a better, more “natural” way to learn English.

Children don’t practice grammar drills, but u 【5】 language to talk about things that interest them. This helps them learn to express themselves. They don’t worry about inadequate vocabulary or poor grammar. They find ways to e 【6】 themselves, and they do it successfully.Students of English should also pay more attention to genuine(真实的) communication. Look for c【7】to talk with people in English. If you can’t find a foreigner to talk to, talk with other English students i 【8】 . Start an English discussion group and chat about music, movies or whatever interests you.

Don’t worry about m 【9】 mistakes. The aim is to learn how to communicate easily and comfortably. Remember that you can communicate successfully even with a small v【10】.Trust your own natural abilities to learn English. You’ve got more potential than you probably realize!
