21、   Do teenagers in small villages do chores at home? How about the teenagers in big cities? Here is a survey. We asked 4,000 teenagers in China several questions. Half of them come from big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The others are from small villages. We made a diagram（图表） of the result of our survey. Let’s have a look at it.

We found out that teenagers from small villages do more chores than those from big cities. Maybe it is because they live a harder life. Our advice to parents in big cities is that parents should give their children some chores to do. Doing chores teaches teenagers to take care of themselves.

23、   I’m Helen Blevins. I’m very lucky because I make money by doing what I love --painting pictures.

I painted my first picture when I was just four. One day, when Mom was cooking, I painted a summer scene on one blue wall of my bedroom. I painted myself and my dog on the grass, with red flowers around. I painted the sun above us, with a big smile on its face.

I was still painting when Mom walked into my room. Her mouth was open and she stood there quietly, looking at the wall. “I’m in big trouble,” I thought. So I was really surprised when Mom said, “What a beautiful picture, Helen!” The picture stayed on my bedroom wall and is still there today, 30 years later. I see it every time I go home to visit Mom.

I tell this story because it shows how much Mom supported my love of painting. When I was at school, she cared about my art as much as other subjects. She kept all my paintings and hung many of them on the walls of our house. She often said, “You are so talented. Follow your dream.”

Today I’m a successful painter. I’m happy that people love my paintings and hang them in their homes. I will never forget Mom’s great support!

24、A) 判断正误  阅读下面的材料，判断下列句子是否符合短文内容。符合的写T，不符合的写F。(T = True, F = False)

Everyone gets sad. Sad feelings can happen often. Most teenagers feel sad at least once a month.

When you are sad, it feels like it will last for a long time. However, the feeling of sadness usually doesn’t last very long — a few hours or maybe a day or two.

When you are sad, the world seems dark. Many times, you cry and it’s hard to stop. Crying usually makes you feel better. When sadness starts to go away, you will completely become well.

If sad feelings go on for too long, it’s called depression (抑郁症). Children who have depression may not know it. Often, a parent or a teacher knows the changes of them. When depression happens, it’s important for children to do something. Sometimes it means talking to someone. Sometimes it means taking medicine. Sometimes both two ways are used. If you have same problems, it’s important to talk to someone. He or she can help you get away from them.

【1】Sad feelings usually last for a long time.

【2】When you are sad, crying can make you feel better.

【3】The depression doesn’t have to do with sad feelings.

【4】Sometimes talking to someone can treat(治疗) depression.
