There once was a king who offered a prize to the artist who painted the best picture of peace. Many artists tried. The king looked at all the pictures. But there were only two he really liked, and he had to choose 【1】 them. One picture was a quiet lake. The lake was a perfect mirror for peaceful high mountains all around it. Overhead was a blue sky with white clouds. All who saw this picture 【2】 that it was a perfect picture of peace.

The other picture had 【3】 , too. But these were rocky. Above was an angry sky, rain fell from it and lightning played in it. Down the side of the mountains fell a waterfall. This did not look 【4】 at all.

But when the king looked 【5】 , he saw behind the waterfall a small bush(灌木) 【6】 in a crack(裂缝) in the rock. In the bush a mother bird had built 【7】 nest(巢). There sat the mother bird in her nest—in perfect peace.

Which picture do you think won the prize? The king chose the 【8】 picture. Do you know why?

21、   They went in and they saw Mrs Cratchit. She was laying the table. Belinda Cratchit, her second eldest daughter, was helping her.

The two smaller Cratchits, a boy and a girl, came running in. “We smelt our goose at the baker’s” they shouted and they danced around the table.

“Where’s your father?” said Mrs Cratchit. “And your brother, Tiny Tim! And Martha wasn’t as late as this last Christmas Day!”

“Here I am, mother!” said a girl in the door way. “You are very late” said Mrs Cratchit, kissing her a dozen times.

“We had a lot of work to finish last night.” replied the girl, “and I had to clear up this morning, Mother!”

“Well, never mind! You are here now,” said Mrs Cratchit.

22、阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容判断句子的正误。正确的填“A“，错误的填”B“。

Maybe most of teenagers do not enjoy doing housework. We hate to do it. But I think it’s our job to do housework. Here is some advice for you.

Learn to do little things. Doing housework is really not as bad as it sounds. If we all do our parts of housework, it will seem much less tiring. We can do little things first. It will show that you are growing up.

Divide（分担） housework among the family. Your parents are also busy. They work all day and they have to keep the house clean. So it’s necessary to make everyone do housework. It will make everyone’s job easier.

Make it fun. If you can make housework a fun thing, that will be great. Most people think cooking can be fun if you put your heart into it. For example, if you cook a wonderful meal, your family or friends will be proud(骄傲的) of you.

【1】The passage mainly talks about how most people learn to do housework.

【2】The writer gives us three pieces of advice on how to do housework.

【3】In the writer’s opinion, if a teenager can learn to cook, it means he is growing up.

【4】The writer doesn’t think it’s necessary for everyone to do housework in the family because it’s very easy.

【5】Not all the people think doing housework is always boring.

23、   Most people around the world are right-handed. This also seems to be true in history. In 1799, scientists studied works of art made at different times from 1,500 B.C. to the 1950s. Most of the people shown in these works are right-handed, so the scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common through history. Today, only about 10% to 15% of the world’s population(人口) is left-handed.

Why are there more right-handed people than left-handed ones? Scientists now know that a person’s two hands each have their own jobs. For most people, the hand is used to find things or hold things. The right hand is used to work with things. This is because of the different work of the two sides of the brain. The right side of the brain, which makes a person’s hands and eyes work together, controls the left hand. The left-side of the brain, which controls the right hand, is the centre for thinking and doing problems. These findings show that more artists should be left-handed, and studies have found that left-handedness is twice as common among artists as among people in other jobs.

No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed instead of left-handed. Scientists have found that almost 40% of the people become left-handed because their main brain is damaged when they are born. However, this doesn’t happen to everyone, so scientists guess there must be another reason why people become left-handed. One idea is that people usually get right-handed from their parents. If a person does not receive the gene(基因) for right-handedness, he/ she may become either right-handed or left-handed according to the chance and the people they work or live with.

Though right-handedness is more common than left-handedness, people no more think left-handed people are strange or unusual. A long time ago, left-handed children were made to use their right hands like other children, but today they don’t have to.

【1】How many people in the world are left-handed now?

A.Less than one sixth. B.More than a half.

C.About 40%. D.The passage doesn’t tell us.

【2】According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

A.No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed.

B.Left-handedness is cleverer than right-handedness.

C.Today children are not made to use their right hands only.

D.Scientists think there must be some reason why people become left-handed.

【3】The best title for this passage is _______

A.Scientists’ New Inventions B.Left-handed People

C.Which Hand D.Different Brains, Different Hand

24、阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，在文章后第1-10小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的词，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为71-80的相应位置上。注意：每个空格只填1个单词。

Hey! Mother's Day is coming. Have you planned anything good for your mom? If not, try one of these tips.

What's her favorite?

Most teens don't know what their mom's favorite is. You do? Then, what are you waiting for? Buy her something she likes and wrap it carefully. The best time to give her that is while she is sleeping at night. Put it on the drawer next to her so that when she wakes up she'll be surprised to see it.

Treat a queen

Your house is a palace with a king and queen (it doesn't matter if you're rich or poor). Our mother is the real queen in our life and in our family though her duties make her look like she is not. Give the lady a day off and you can do the housework.

Because of stress and the problems that she is facing right now, she doesn't look good any more. Perhaps you could take some of your savings to treat her in a salon or the department store. Then, choose nice clothes that would make her look beautiful!

Have some of your time

Our mothers have special memories in mind. It is the time that they gave birth to their dear baby. How about you? What's your best moment with her? Have you ever had a good time with your mother not talking about your problems and arguments? Have you ever told her how much you thank her for the life she gave to you, the time she cared for you? Maybe you can tell her how happy you are when she was there looking after you during your painful days in your life.

Tell the magic words

Life is short. We don't know what will happen tomorrow. Those three words can make her heart jump for joy, you know? Just tell her “I love you!” and it would make her smile so sweetly. Just try! We don't want to miss a thing, right?
