21、Reading poetry is an art in itself. Whether you’re reading someone else’s poem or your own, how you read the poem can affect the meaning. If you need to read a poem in front of others, you need to take steps to read it well. 【1】

Stand up straight. When you’re reading a poem in front of people, you need to show confidence. 【2】 Instead, you should stand up straight with your shoulders back, so that you can exude (散发) confidence, even if you’re not feeling confident.

Make eye contact (接触). 【3】 However, it’s important to know your poem well enough so that you can look up from time to time to make eye contact with the audience. It both attracts the audience and helps you show confidence.

Add proper movement. Movement can help make a poem better accepted, but only if you do it properly. 【4】 If it’s a very serious, natural poem, you may not want to use any movement at all. If it’s a more playful poem, movement may be more proper.

【5】 When you’re in a room, make sure you are heard by all in the room. Those people in the far back need to hear, so you will often need to read louder than you normally do. If you’re not sure how loud you need to speak, you can always ask if the people in the back can hear you.

A．Project (投射) to the whole room.

B．Read the poem in the loudest voice.

C．You can’t make eye contact all the time while reading.

D．Eye contact shows that you are confident to use movement.

E．Particularly, you need to pay attention to your body language.

F．If you stand with your head down, that shows a lack of confidence.

G．Think about the poem itself to determine how much movement is proper.

22、An artist in Oakland, California is using his skills to help the homeless. Greg Kloehn builds very small shelters that make life on the streets a little more comfortable. The structures offer the homeless some safety and protection from bad weather. Each little house also has wheels on the bottom so it can go wherever its owner goes.

Greg Kloehn has given away at least 20 tiny houses. Several are on the roadside near an active railroad. On a recent day, Mr. Kloehn stops at one to visit Oscar Young. The two men hug. Inside his little shelter Mr. Young gets relief from cold nights on the streets. Mr. Kloehn also visits Sweet-Pea, another friend who also lives in one of the little homes the artist built. She says it keeps her safe and protects her belongings.

In the mornings, Mr. Kloehn searches the streets for building materials. He gathers what he can and takes it to his studio. There, he puts the houses together. Empty coffee bags become roof material. A washing machine door and refrigerator part become windows. Nails, screws and the sticky glue hold all the pieces together. The artist also attaches a small electrical device to the house. The device is powered by the sun.

Some of the people living on the streets once had normal houses of their own. But some of the people say they have learned to live with less and they are thankful to that man.

Mr. Kloehn says his work is not a social project. He says he is just someone using his skills to help his homeless neighbors.

【1】The following are the advantages of the small shelters except_______.

A. saving power and energy

B. decorating the streets where they are

C. protecting possessions of the homeless

D. keeping the homeless safe and comfortable

【2】We can learn from the passage that_______.

A. Greg Kloehn has sold at least 20 tiny houses.

B. The government has taken part in the action.

C. The shelters Greg Kloehn builds can not be moved.

D. An act of kindness has made people comfortable and grateful.

【3】What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. An artist creates homes for the homeless.

B. A more comfortable shelter is built on the streets.

C. A successful social project is conducted in Oakland.

D. An artist makes a living by designing small shelters.

23、March 21 has been declared World Sleep Day, a time to recognize and celebrate the value of sleep. Many sleep experts hope it will be a wake-up call.

According to a poll (民意调查)by the National Sleep Foundation, nearly 4 in 5 Americans don’t get as much sleep as they should during the workweek. On average, adults are thought to need at least eight hours of sleep a night, although some can manage with less and some won’t do well without more. But the survey found that, on workdays, only 21% of Americans actually get a full eight hours of sleep, and another 21% get less than six.

To many of us, the thought of spending more time sleeping is, well, a big yawn. On the other hand, the thought of being smarter, thinner, healthier and more cheerful has a certain appeal. And those are just a few of the advantages that can be ours if we consistently get enough sleep, researchers say. Also on the plus side: We’re likely to have better skin, better memories, better judgment, and, oh, yes, longer lives.

“When you lose even one hour of sleep for any reason, it influences your performance the next day,” says Dr. Alon Avidan, director of the UCLA Sleep Disorders Center.

A study published last year found the same to be true even of children. When kids aged 8 to 12 slept for just one hour less for four nights, they didn’t function as well during the day.

But sleeping has an image problem. “We see napping or sleeping as lazy,” says Jennifer Vriend, a clinical psychologist in Ottawa, Canada, and the leading author of the study with children. “We put so much emphasis on diet, nutrition and exercise. Sleep is in the back seat.” In fact, she adds, no matter how much we work out, no matter how well we eat, we can’t be in top physical shape unless we also get plenty of sleep.

【1】The underlined part in Paragraph 1 means _____.

A.to wake up the sleepers

B.to serve as a morning call

C.to draw people’s attention

D.to declare the special day

【2】From Paragraph 3 we can infer that _______.

A.being healthier is one of the advantages for us

B.enough sleep is the guarantee of the appealing things

C.sleeping has nothing to do with one’s expectations

D.spending more time on sleeping is a waste of time

【3】What Jennifer Vriend said in the last paragraph implies that _______.

A.people care little about sleeping

B.sleeping is an image problem

C.lazy people tend to sleep long

D.sleeping is only part of our life

【4】What is the purpose of the passage?

A.to talk about people’s sleeping problems.

B.to provide an investigation result of sleeping.

C.to stress the function of sleeping at night.

D.to arouse the awareness of enough sleeping.

24、Jonathan Lawler loves to work the land.For seven years，he operated Lawler Farms，a for­profit produce farm，harvesting nearly 700,000 pounds of food annually.

Now he’s on a mission to feed the hungry in Central Indiana.Lawler has turned his 36­acre farm into a nonprofit operation called Brandywine Creek Farms.His goal for the first year is to donate 500,000 pounds of food，which he said is realistic based on the farm’s produce capacity(产量) and the addition of a large number of volunteers to help through the season. On top of that，Lawler has worked together with Gleaners，Midwest Food Bank，Kenneth Butler Soup Kitchen and other area food banks as distribution partners.

Lawler，who also owns a transportation consulting firm that helps pay the bills，says his 15­year­old son inspired him to start thinking differently when it came to his farm.“He came home from school and talked about kids who take home food from the food bank，”Lawler said.“My awareness of hunger was limited to the homeless in Downtown Indianapolis.The last place I would expect it is in a rural farming community like where I live.”As he began to look around，he realized that the farms in Hancock and surrounding counties produce tons of corn，soybeans and wheat，“but nothing you can just pick up and eat，” he said.

Lawler and most of his neighbors are self­sufficient(自给自足的)．They grow what they need or have access to quality food at supermarkets.If he needs something he didn’t grow himself，he can jump in his truck and drive 12 minutes to the nearest store.“But for someone who doesn’t have reliable transportation，that 12­minute drive could be a two­hour hike，” he said.

【1】Lawler was inspired to donate food by   .

A. his son

B. his neighbors

C. the hungry kids

D. the homeless in his town

【2】We can know from the passage that Lawler   .

A. is self­sufficient in quality food

【3】Which of the following can best describe Lawler?
