21、Five years ago, I spent most of my time at a hospital in our town. I found much joy there. At first it was a little scary to be there, but I stayed on, because I had a reason for doing this.

I volunteered in a locked-up environment. To my surprise, I found that a friend of my parents’ was a patient in this hospital. I knew, when I was a baby, this woman wanted to keep me because she had no children. I looked after this woman and showed my old photos to her. Finally, she was able to remember some old things, and she said to me one day, “Dear, you should not come here. “But I wanted to bring something happy into this woman’s life. I learned that because she had no family, she could not leave here and go home. So I brought her to my home twice, and I still remember the happy smile on her face.

22、任务型阅读

阅读短文，在空格里填入恰当的单词。（每空填一个单词）

It’s hard to make friends if you stay at home alone all the time. Get out of the house and do things that will put you in touch with other people. It’s easier to make friends when you have the same interests.

Don’t be afraid to show people what you are really good at. Talk about the things you like and do best. People will be interested in you if there is something interesting about you.

Look at people in the eyes when you talk to them. That way, they will find it easier to talk to you. If don’t, people may think you are not interested in them and may stop being interested in you.

Listen carefully. Let people talk about themselves before talking about ‘me, me, me’. Ask lots of questions. Show interest in their answers.

Try to make friends with the kind of people you really like — not just with those who are easy to meet. Be friendly to a lot of people. If so, more people will choose to make friends with you.

Title:   【1】  to make friends

23、   Can you imagine astronauts’ everyday life in space? They also need to eat, sleep, exercise and relax. They do the same things as us, but they do them differently.

On Earth, we put food on a plate. Gravity holds the food down and keeps it on a place. But there is almost no gravity in space, so food can float away, and astronauts must eat carefully.

Sleeping is very different in space. Some astronauts like to float in the air, but most like to be in a sleeping bag. They tie（系；系住）the bag to a wall so that they won't float away at night.

Exercise is very important in space. On Earth, your legs carry your body, but in space, astronauts float, so they don’t use their legs often. This is very bad for their legs, so they must exercise for thirty minutes every day.

After a day’s work, astronauts relax. They may listen to music, read, watch film, play games, or talk to their friends and family on the radio. Sometimes they just enjoy floating in the air.

【1】On Earth, food can be put on a plate because ______.

A.there is gravity B.the food is light

C.the food is heavy D.the plate is heavy enough

【2】Why do astronauts tie the sleeping bag to a wall?

A.Because in that way they won’t float away

B.Because that makes them sleep well

C.Because they can’t get to sleep if they don’t do that

D.Because the sleeping bag is not safe enough

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

A.It is about the importance of gravity.

B.It is about astronauts’ everyday life in space.

C.It is about the differences between space and Earth.

D.It is about how to avoid floating away while sleeping.

24、Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words

My wife and I recently welcomed a child into the world. His only interest right now is keeping us awake 24/7. But one day, he’ll need to learn something about finance. When he does, here are some suggestions.

1) You might think you want an expensive car, a fancy watch, and a huge house. But you don’t. What you want is respect and admiration from other people. You think having expensive stuff will bring it. It a【1】 never does-especially from the people you want to respect and admire you.

2) The road to financial regret is paved with debt. Some debt, such as a mortgage, is OK. But most spending that results in debt is the equivalent of a drug: a quick hit of p【2】 that wears off, only to drag you down for years to come, limiting your options and keeping you weighed down by the baggage of your past.

3) I hope you’re poor at some point. Not struggling, and not unhappy, of course. But there’s no way to learn the value of money without feeling the power of its scarcity. It teaches you the difference between n【3】 and desirable. It’ll make you learn to enjoy what you have, fix what’s broken, and shop for a bargain. These are essential survival skills.

4) If you’re like most people, you’ll spend most of your adult life thinking, “Once I’ve saved/earned $X, everything will be great.” Then you’ll hit $X, move the goalposts, and resume chasing your tail. It’s a miserable c【4】. Your goals should be about more than money.

5) Don’t stay in a job you hate because you made a career choice at 18. Almost no one knows what he or she wants to do at that age. Many people don’t know what they want until they’re t【5】 that age. (These are the signs you’re in the wrong career.)

6) The best thing money buys is to control over your time. It gives you options and f【6】 you from relying on someone else’s priorities. One day you’ll realize that this freedom is one of the things that makes your truly happy.

7) Some people are born into families that encourage education others are from families that are a【7】 it. Some are born into flourishing economies others, into war and poverty. I want you to be successful, and I want you to earn it. But realize that not all success is due to hard work and not all poverty is due to laziness. Keep this in mind when judging people, including yourself.

8) Your savings rate has a little to do with how much you earn and a lot to do with how much you spend. I know a dentist who lives paycheck to paycheck, always on the edge of ruin. I know another person who never earned more than $50, 000 and saved a fortune. The difference is entirely due to their spending. Living with less is the most efficient way to control your financial future.
