21、   “Save the whales!” That’s what the picture on Jake Smith’s bedroom wall said. Jake liked having a picture that said something important; that showed he cared. But he never expected to get a chance（机会）to save a real whale in his own neighborhood.

It was a Saturday morning when the newspaper first reported the whales’ coming. A group of the animals were swimming close to the beach in Jake’s hometown. Many people, including Jake and his family, ran out to the beach to see them. They were expecting a beautiful show, better than a movie.

Then one whale swam towards the land. It came with the waves（海浪）, and when the waves receded, its huge body was left on the sand. Now, Jake and his family and all the others were no longer sightseers. They had to become rescuers（营救者）. A few people ran towards the animal. They pushed and tried to get the whale back into the water, but it was no use.

An animal rescue service team soon arrived to help move the animal, Jack and his family couldn’t do much on the beach, so they went back to their house and made sandwiches and hot tea for the rescuers. At last, Jake thought, they could help in some way.

Back at the beach, they offered the food to the rescuers and were happy to see that they needed it. It was getting dark. Some people lined up their cars along the beach and shined the headlights on the sand. The rescuers would not give up. After trying many times, they were finally able to lift the whale into the water. Everyone cheered when it headed out to sea. It swam out about a mile and then disappeared for a while under the sea. Then, in what looked like a jump of joy, it rose high above the water-a thank-you to those who had worked so hard to save his life.

22、If the eyes are the windows of the soul, then the body is the mirror of our feelings. If we are feeling great, we may give our body signals(信号). If we look at someone else’s body, we can often tell how they are feeling by their body signals. So reading body language signals is a great tool in daily communication.

In case(假使) you don’t think that learning how to read and use body language is important, here are some numbers for you. 7% of the information we receive is from what people actually say, and 38% of the information we receive is from the tone(语气) and the speed of their voice; while 55% of the information we receive is from their body language.

These non-verbal(非口头的) signals will help you a lot, but you still need to focus on what people are saying. If you focus too much on their body language signals, you and the person may feel uncomfortable. It is useful to be able to read people’s body language, but it is useful to learn how to send the right signals and avoid the wrong signals too. Body language may be given several interpretations. Many signals have different meanings, depending on the person and the situation. Be sure of it when you are trying to read a body language signal.

【1】The numbers mentioned in the second paragraph are to ___________.

A．explain what body language is

B．show the importance of body language

C．tell us body language is less used than verbal language

D．tell us body language is the only tool in communication

【2】What is the meaning of the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?

A．Body language is widely used all over the world

B．Body language can be explained in different ways.

C．It’s too hard to understand the meanings of body language

D．People have already looked through many books on body language.

【3】According to the writer, body language is very ___________.

A．simple to learn

B．negative to be used

C．hard to understand

D．helpful in communication

【4】According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A．Body language is uncomfortable.

B．What people are saying is not important

C．Body language can show your emotion.

D．To send wrong signals is not body language

【5】We can infer(推断) that the writer will most probably talk about __________ next.

A．what the wrong body language signals are

B．examples of how to understand body language correctly.

C．numbers about how many people wrongly use body language

D．an analysis (分析) of why people wrongly understand body language

23、When you finish some chores at home, will your parents give you a reward(奖励)? It is common for parents to do that. But some people do not think it is a good idea.

One of them is Susie Walton, an education expert. She believes if kids get rewards, they will think that housework is not worth doing unless they get something in return. Kids won’t sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will if their parents reward them for it. Walton also says, “A home is a living place for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all should play our part in keeping our home clean.”

Other people don’t think so. They believe that rewards encourage kids to do more chores. Rewarding them also teaches them real world lessons. They can learn that they need to work to make money. Now, there are also mobile phone apps like ChoreMonster. With the app, kids get points after doing chores. After getting some points, they can do something they like. For example, parents will allow them to play video games for half an hour if they get 80 points.

So each side seems to have their own reasons. Whether you give children rewards depends on your own ideas. Maybe you have better ways to solve this problem.

【1】Which of the following is Susie Walton’s opinion?

A．Don’t ask kids to do housework.

B．Don’t give kids rewards for doing chores.

C．Don’t allow kids to play computer games.

D．Don’t let children play a part in doing chores.

【2】What do people want to teach kids by giving kids rewards for doing chores?

A．People need to work to make money.

B．Doing chores is a good way to make money.

C．They can only be allowed to watch TV by doing chores.

D．They must share housework because they live in the same house.

【3】Which idea may the writer agree with?

A．Parents should give rewards to let their kids do chores.

B．Kids should offer to help with chores at home.

C．Apps are better choices for parents than money.

D．We don’t know what’s the best way to get kids helping.
