21、   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. ”

22、If a friend helps you, what do you do in return? You could just say “Thank you”. Or you could write a thank-you note. But most people don’t do this.

“People don’t seem to give thanks to people quite often,” Amit Kumar from University of Texas says.

Why are people hesitant (犹豫的) about sending thank-you notes? And how do most people react when they receive one?

Kumar and his team asked some students to each write a letter of thanks to another person. Then, they questioned both the writer and the recipient (接受者) about the letter and how it made them feel.

They found that people don’t like to write thank-you notes because they feel like they have to think too much about it. They worry about what to say and how to say it.

But people really like receiving thank-you notes. They feel especially happy.

“If people knew that writing a thank-you note can have such a big influence on the recipient, they would do it more often,” Kumar says.

Kumar says this study makes us think that simple, small changes in our everyday lives can make a big difference in how we treat other people and how we feel.

根据短文内容，判断下列句子正（A）误（B）。

【1】Most people like to write a thank-you note when a friend gives them a favor.

【2】Many students know what to say because they want to think too much.

【3】People would like to get thank-you notes from others.

【4】The writer thinks writing a thank-note can have a big influence.

【5】The study can help us make a big difference in how to treat others.

23、Ice Fishing

Dear members,

I’m excited about this Sunday’s ice fishing. We are to meet at 9:00 am and then take the bus to the lake.

Please arrive on time. Before you set off, here is some advice for you:

●   Wear the right clothes. You should dress in layers (层). Wear two or three shirts, so you can take off a layer when you are warm. Wear a face mask, a warm hat and gloves.

●   Stay warm. Be sure to take a hot drink, for example a hot chocolate. You should move around to stay warm. Some people take ice-skates.

●   Check the ice. Look at it carefully. The ice must be 10 cm or more thick. Thick ice is safe for ice fishing. Thin ice is dangerous.

●   Take the right tools. Be sure to take your fish hooks (钩) and fishing rods (竿)! Take your phone. You might need to call for help. Remember to take a chair to sit on.

Have a great time!

Brain from the ice fishing club
