21、Hi, boys and girls! What kinds of gifts do you want to have on your birthday? Do you like to have a box with nothing in it? Here is a story about it.

There were two people in the family, a girl and her father. They were poor. It was her father’s 45th birthday. The girl wanted to give her father a present, but she had no money. So she cut some color paper to make a box, and then she brought it to her father. Father was very angry and talked loudly to the girl, “Don’t you know that? When you give someone a present, you should put something in it.” The little girl looked at her father. “Oh, daddy, it’s not empty at all. I blow (吹) kisses (吻) into the box. They’re all for you,” she said.

Father put his arms around his little girl. He thanked her for her best gift.

After a short time, the girl died. Father put the box by the side of the bed. He remembered the love of the child.

22、   We often reach a point in our life when we should be ready for change that will help us unlock (解锁)our self-improvement power. However, there's always something staring at us right under our nose but we don't see it. The only time we think of unlocking our self-improvement power is when everything gets worst.

When do we realize that we need to change diets? When none of our shirts and jeans would fit us .When do we stop eating candies and chocolates? When all of our teeth have fallen off. When do we realize that we need to stop smoking? When our lungs (肺)have gone bad. We see the warning signs and signals when things get rough and difficult.

The only time most of us ever learn about unlocking our self-improvement power is when the whole world is falling apart. We think and feel this way because it is not easy to change, but change becomes more painful when we ignore(忽视) it.

Change will happen, like it or hate it. At one point or another, we are all going to finally unlock our self-improvement power not because the world says so. But because we realize it,'s for our own good.

Happy people don' t just accept change; they embrace(拥抱)it. Unlocking our self-improvement power means unlocking ourselves out of the box of thought that is just the way we are. It is such a poor excuse for people who fear change.

Jane always tells everyone that she doesn't have the courage(勇气)to be around groups of people She heard her family tell the same things about her to other people. Over the years, that is what Jane has believed. Every time a great crowd comes, she steps back and locks herself up in a room. Jane not only believes in her story, but lives it!

Self-improvement may not be everybody's favorite word, but if we look at things in a different way, we might have greater chances of enjoying the whole process(过程)instead of counting the days until we are fully improved Three sessions in a week at the gym would result in a healthier life .Reading books every day would build up knowledge. And only when we are enjoying the whole process of unlocking our self-improvement power will we realize that were beginning to take things light and become happy.

【1】The writer mentions the three questions in Paragraph 2 to show that_______.

A.we learn our lessons when we experience pain. B.we are responsible for the problems we meet.

C.life fails us when we get into the wrong way. D.life is a long journey full of ups and downs

【2】What is the key to solving Jane's problem?

A.She needs to remember why she started.

B.She has to know how to get on with people.

C.She has to realize she is not what she is in her story.

D.She needs to understand the importance of confidence.

【3】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A.Is it important to take things light? B.Is it necessary to embrace challenges?

C.To hold on to the last moment or to give up? D.To free ourselves out of the box or to stay in it?
