21、

Reid tried to draw a sports car like Peter’s. But no pictures looked good. He hated them and threw them away.

“Is there a secret to being a good artist? ” he felt sad and asked his teacher Mrs. Lee for help. “Yes, of course.” said Mrs. Lee. “Draw that car again. No throwing away. Give it to me when you’ re done. Then do a drawing every day. Don’t worry about how bad the drawings are or throw them away. Hand in one picture to me each day for four weeks. Then I’ll tell you the secret.”

Reid did as the teacher told him.

One day, Reid started to feel like drawing more. “Is it OK to do more than one picture a day?” he asked. “Draw as much as you’d like,” said Mrs. Lee.

Finally, four weeks passed. “It’s time for the secret.” Mrs. Lee said, “But first I want you to do one more drawing.” Reid did. He showed it to Mrs. Lee when he finished. Mrs. Lee smiled and showed him the drawing he did the first day. Reid looked the two pictures. What a difference! The new one wasn’t perfect, but it looked much like Peter’s car.

“What’s the secret?” he asked.

“It’s practice! You drew every day, and look how much better your pictures got. If your work improved this much in four weeks, just think what will happen in three months or a year.”

“Would you hold on to these for another four weeks? I want to keep learning the secret.” said Reid.

22、We all know that plants are delicious food for insects(昆虫). But some plants are able to develop ways to protect themselves from insects.

Some plants have physical features(特点) that stop insects from landing on them. For example, the passion plant’s(龙珠果的) leaves have little spiky(有尖刺的) hairs all over them. They are like spikes, pushing out of that plant. There are so many that no room is left for the insects to land on. So the insects can’t eat them. The little hairs serve as a physical feature that helps protect the passion plant from insects.

Other plants protect themselves using chemical things, like the potato plant. The potato plant is able to give out a chemical all over its leaves. The insect swallows this chemical as it eats the leaves. This chemical discourages the insect from wanting to eat more of the plant. How? Well, this chemical makes the insect feel full, like it’s already had enough. The insect no longer feels hungry so it stops eating the plant. So, by giving out this chemical, the potato plant protects itself from insects.

【1】What is true about the passion plant?

A．It doesn’t have any leaves.

B．Its leaves are full of spikes.

C．It is too small for insects to eat.

D．Insects like to eat spikes of the passion plant.

【2】The underlined word “discourages” in the passage means “________” in Chinese.

A．鼓励

B．吞噬

C．阻止

D．使灰心

【3】How does the potato plant protect itself?

A．It gives out a chemical making insects feel full.

B．It has too many leaves for insects to eat.

C．It has bad leaves for insects to eat.

D．It gives out a chemical to kill insects.

【4】What does the passage mainly talk about?

A．How to grow plants.

B．Two ways for plants to protect themselves.

C．The relationship between plants and insects.

D．How to make plants stay away from insects.

23、As young students, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize; they can also be small, such as becoming one of the best students in your class. Once you find a dream, what do you do with it? Do you ever try to make your dream real?

Andrew Matews, an Australian writer, tells us that making your dreams real is life’s biggest challenge. You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or that it’s impossible for you to become a writer. Those kinds of ideas stop you from realizing your dream.

In fact, everyone can realize his dream. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want every day and then your dream will come true faster. You should know that a big dream is, in fact, made up of many small dreams.

You must also never give up your dream. There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from you. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will help you to get better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book.

As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn something more useful and find new hobbies.
