21、“I hate school, and I’m not going back!” Many kids have that thought sometimes. Usually this feeling doesn’t stay long, but it does harm to your healthy life. You might be stressed out, thus you have no ideas about what to do. In the morning, you might not know what to eat or what to wear. Having bad sleeping is another sign of stress. If one doesn’t have enough sleep, he may be tired and unhappy. However, where does the stress come from? Sometimes it’s a problem with your classes and schoolwork. Maybe the homework is too easy and you get bored. Or maybe the homework is too difficult and you don’t feel as clever as the other kids. Reading may be difficult for you, but you have to do a lot of it. You may be getting behind, and it may seem that you will never catch up with others.

When you know why you don’t like school, you can find ways to make things better. It’s a good idea to talk to someone about your problems at school. Your mom, dad, friends, teachers, or even classmates will be able to help you. Another good idea is to write down your feeling about school. For example, keep a diary or just write in a notebook. It’s a great way to relax yourself and you don’t have to share what you have written with others. Making a “don’t like” list is also a great idea. The next time you find yourself disliking school, try to find out everything you dislike or enjoy — even there is only one thing. See what you can change on the list. You may ask yourself, “Could I find a way to show my special interests and talents on what I like? Which activities could I try that would help to solve these ‘don’t like’ problems? What should I do to take up a new hobby and make myself relaxed?” Think more about what you can change and you might be able to put the good feeling back in school.

【1】What may be the reason for why you don’t like school?

A．Reading may not be difficult.

B．The homework is too much.

C．Having a lot of pressure.

D．Being as clever as others.

【2】How many ways are there in paragraph 2 to make things better if you don’t like school?

A．Two.

B．Three.

C．Four.

D．Five.

【3】We can know from the passage that __________.

A．most students hate school in one way

B．all the students have the same problem

C．making a list can solve all your problems

D．a diary is something kept to oneself

【4】The underlined sentence “Think more about what you can change” means __________.

A．find more ways to change things better

B．just wait and think all the time

C．have a good feeling in homework

22、About ten years ago when I was an undergraduate in college in New York, I was working as a practice student at my university's Museum of Natural History. One day while I was working at the cash register in the gift shop, I saw an elderly couple come in with a little girl in a wheelchair.

As I looked closer at this girl, I saw that she was seated on her chair. I then realized she had no arms or legs, just a head, neck and the trunk of the human body. She was wearing a little white dress with the patterns of red roses and yellow dots.

As the couple wheeled her up to me I was looking down at the register. I turned my head toward the girl and gave her a wink(眨眼示意). As I took the money from her grandparents, I looked back at the girl, who was giving me the most beautiful, largest smile I have ever seen.

All of a sudden her handicap was gone and all I saw was this beautiful girl, whose smile just melted me and almost instantly gave me a completely new sense of what life is all about. I immediately felt full of hope and confidence. She took me, a poor, unhappy college student, into her world, a world of smiles, love and warmth.

That was ten years ago, but I still remember it clearly as if it happened just yesterday. I'm a successful business person now and whenever I get down and think about the troubles of the world, I think about that little girl and the remarkable lesson about life that she taught me.

23、What does travelling mean? Visit, enjoy and discover (发现).

24、Debbie and Simon are students. They both have part-time jobs at a travel company. A well-dressed lady entered the office. She looked at Debbie and Simon, and then walked over to Debbie. Debbie gave her a cheerful greeting.

Simon sighed (叹息) and walked away.

“What’s the matter?” Mr. Yang asked.

“People always choose Debbie instead of me. I don’t understand.”

“I do. It’s the way you communicate.”

“How can that be?” Simon asked. “I don’t get a chance to speak.”

“Communicating is more than just speaking. Your body language is important, too.”

“Body language?”

“It’s the way you stand and sit. It’s your gestures and the expressions on your face. Your whole appearance communicates things. You don’t give people a good impression, Simon. You look down, you never smile and you don’t turn your head towards them.”

“Look at Debbie. She is holding her head up. She always smiles and looks friendly. Her body language is making people feel welcome, so they go to her for help.”

Simon decided to improve his body language. He sat up straight and tried smiling at people.

Minutes later, a beautiful girl entered. She walked over to Simon. A few moments later, she left with a smile.
