21、
Dear Dr. Green, My relationship with my mother is worse and worse now. It seems she’s never tired of talking. She talks here and there, day and night. More seriously, I feel like we don’t have much in common. She doesn’t always understand what I’m trying to say. What should I do? Yours, Jim |
Dear Jim, I know how you feel. It’s not easy being your age. And it’s not easy being a mother, either. It’s common for kids to have trouble talking with parents, and talkative mothers are not new to teenagers. But remember, she’s nagging you because she just wants what’s best for you. Talking is her way to show love and care. And she also wants to know more about you. After a day’s work, she’s tired, too. But she will never be tired of caring about you. Kids should learn to understand and care about parents. In my opinion, it’s helpful to share school life with her. Then, you talk and she listens. Doing some housework together with her is another good way for you two to know each other better. And if possible, often tell her your feelings about the things around you. Always keep in mind: be polite and patient. Yours, Dr. Green |
【1】Why does Jim write to Dr. Green?
A.Because his parents can’t understand him.
B.Because he has trouble getting on with his mother.
C.Because his mother doesn’t care about him.
D.Because he is allowed to do much housework.
【2】The underlined word “nagging” means ________in Chinese.
A.唠叨
B.放纵
C.保护
D.溺爱
【3】What advice does Dr. Green give to Jim?
A.Argue with his mother.
B.Understand and care about his mother.
C.Take no notice of his mother and do whatever he likes.
D.Ask his mother to help with his housework.
22、Choose the best answer (选择最恰当的答案)
There is a river between a small village and the village school in a town of Hainan Province, but no bridge over the river there. Two teachers of the village school insist on carrying the children on their backs across the river to go to school. The 54-year-old teacher, Wang Wenzhou is also the headmaster of the village school. The other teacher, Wang Shengchao, is 45 years old. Both the two teachers have been doing this for many years day after day. The river is about twenty metres wide.
Wang Shengchao said that his father carried him across the river when he was young. Now he does the same thing as his father did. He will carry little children on his back across the river if their parents can not send them to school. Many parents are thankful to them for their good manners. The life in this village school is very hard. Many teachers left the school because of the hard conditions (条件). In September it rained heavily every day so the river became very deep. Children could not go to school during that time. They had been back and forth between the school and the river.

23、 Classic books never go out of fashion. The book The Outsiders first came out in 1967. Although the book is old, it is still worth reading. It is written by US writer S.E.Hinton.
The book tells the story of a 14-year-old boy called Ponyboy Curtis. He struggles with difficult issues of right and wrong in a society where he is an outsider. The story took place in Oklahoma, US, in 1965.
In the book, the children are divided into two groups. One includes Curtis and Greasers. It is mostly made up of poor kids. They have longer hair and often smoke at a young age. The other group is called the Socs, which is made up of rich children. They wear expensive clothes and drive high-tech cars. Those two groups do not get along well. The book only shows us two weeks of the boys' life.
I was touched by the friendship among the boys. When any of them has a problem, the others will help. Although they are not well educated(教育), they are kind and brave. For example, when Johnny was hurt and in hospital, his friends visited him almost every day. They brought him food and told him interesting stories. I always dream of having a strong friendship like this.
This book shows the good personalities(品质) in those ordinary people. I advise that teenagers read this book and I hope they can enjoy it.
