21、We know that disabled people are seldom shown in advertisement on television. If they really are, it is usually to make people feel sad for them. It is important to find out what would be the most helpful to the other person, instead of supposing that you know. This may take time. Some people become impatient. Others may be too selfish to make the effort. Remember that disabled people may do things in a different way from you. All it needs is a little thought. Whether disabled or not, we can all learn from each other. Disabled people necessarily make themselves brave. They probably feel that they have to adapt to（适应）their situation（处境）. They have learnt not to give up, but to keep on trying. Life isn’t always fair. Sometimes we have to deal with difficult situations. Having to face a challenge can often help us to have a better understanding of ourselves and of other people.

It is not helped to treat disabled people as if they all have the same feelings and needs. And it’s important for us to know what kind of help the disabled person would welcome.

22、   During this Spring Festival, a name---- the novel coronavirus(冠状病毒), became hot. It is so dangerous that it caused a new kind of epidemic(传染病). This epidemic spreads(传播) so quickly that the whole country was in a difficult situation. Many parts of the country had to go under quarantine(隔离) in hopes of controlling the spread of this epidemic.

Through this epidemic is very dangerous, people all around the country worked together to fight against it. A large number of medical workers, from different parts of the country, after making a decision that could mean life or death, left their home and went to Wuhan to save people’s lives. And to help to give people treatment(治疗) in time, many workers worked day and night to build hospitals. And many people volunteered to check the body temperature for passengers. And some people even shot videos online to teach people how to wash hands correctly. “ I see a strong will from Chinese people in the fight against the virus,” a foreigner said.

Though the fight is difficult, when we pull together, we can get out of this hard situation successfully. “When the epidemic is over, I’ll go out to breathe the fresh air and get close to the nature.” I believe our Chinese people can learn a lesson from this terrible experience.

23、We talk every day. When we have good news, we like to share it with our good friends and when something terrible happens, we will let others know soon. But do you know that a tree can talk and share news？It sounds strange, but it’s true that some trees can also communicate with each other. Of course, no tree moves lips and says words just as people do.

Willow trees (柳树) are the best­-known of these trees. When insects (昆虫) begin eating a willow tree, the tree gives out a special smell at once. This smell tells the other willow trees that insects are coming near. All of them quickly make a chemical (化学物质) in their leaves. This chemical is bad for the insects. The insects do not like it and they fly away soon. In this way, the willow trees keep themselves away from the insects.

Next time when you take a walk near the trees, maybe the trees are “talking” to each other quietly. And when someone says that trees cannot “talk”, please tell them that even trees can “talk” to each other, too.

【1】Willow trees communicate with each other through ________.

24、I’m Mary. I still remember the first day when I came to junior middle school two years ago. How nervous I felt! On the second morning of the reading class, my English teacher came to me when I was reading English. After listening to my reading for a while, she gave me a big smile, which shone on me the whole day. Thanks to the beautiful smile, I had the courage to read and speak English loudly. My English was becoming better and better. From then on, I have realized the most useful encouragement is smiling.

Smile is an attitude (态度) to life. There is always something bad in our lives. For example, you may fail the exam, or you lose your family members. All these may make you sad. How do you solve (解决) the problems? Why not learn to smile at life? On the one hand, smiling at yourself can bring back your confidence. On the other hand, we should smile at others. It will help us win friendship. Smiling is the most useful body language. It can be not only good for others, but also helpful for ourselves.

I think if we smile often, even stones could sing songs. Everyone can make it if we put our hearts into it.

A．2 years ago.

B．3 years ago.

C．4 years ago.

D．5 years ago.
