21、One of my favorite memories is of a day that was a big success for me. We were all trying to decide on a game to play. When Custard the cat pushed a football towards us with her little pink nose. “Great idea, Custard. Let’s have a game of football!” shouted Peter.

“But I don’t really know the rules,” said Angela nervously. “Well, let’s practice shooting (射门)! All you have to do is to score a goal (进球) to get a point,” suggested Lily. “OK! Let’s go and put our new sports clothes on!” answered May.

Peter chose two large sticks as goalposts (球门柱). Then, looking important, he said, “Since I’m the only boy here, I’ll be the goalkeeper (守门员). Let’s start!”

Angela was the first to shoot. She ran up to the ball and…oops! She fell over without even kicking the ball! Everyone started laughing. Lily was next. She took a great shot, but Peter made a good save. No goal! “Nice try, but I’m too good!” Peter said proudly as he threw the ball back. May tried her best, but her shot ended up wide of the goalpost. “What a pity!” said Peter, looking pleased with himself. “I didn’t expect to win, but it looks like no one can beat me, girls,” said Peter.

The little boy was getting a bit too big for his boots(靴子). I would like to have a try. Peter kicked the ball to me really hard. But I quickly kicked the ball out and sent the ball between the posts! “Ooh!” cried Peter, as he tried to avoid the powerful shot. “Goal! Well done!” shouted the girls. “What’s the matter, Peter? You’ve gone very quiet,” they all cried.

22、In December 2006, a polar bear, Knut, was born at the Berlin Zoo in Germany. The zookeepers didn’t know that this cute baby bear would cause such big changes for the zoo.

Knut was different from other polar bears in two ways. First, his mother would not care for him or feed him. So Knut was raised by humans. Second, he was quite playful with people and very easy to take photos with. Knut became the star of the zoo. Because of Knut, the zoo made more money in 2007 than in any other year. Many visitors came to see Knut and bought toys, DVDs, and books about him. Newspapers called him “Cute Knut”, and there were photos of him on magazine covers worldwide.

As time passed, Knut grew bigger. He wasn’t as cute as before. The once-cute baby bear became a full-size bear, weighing more than 300 pounds! And as Knut grew, his problems came too. He began to cry if nobody stood near his pen. This was a sign that he became too accustomed to having a group of people around him. Also, zookeepers could not get close to Knut any more. They were worried that he would hurt them by accident. Knut went on to live at the zoo, but he was no more a star.

Nobody knows what the future holds for Knut. Some people think he should have a polar bear to live with. Some people worry that his unusual way of growing up will keep him from living a normal life. At the same time, zookeepers go on to look for ways to keep Knut safe and happy.

【1】How was the early years of Knut?

A．He was born in the wild.

B．His mother cared for him a lot.

C．He helped the zoo make much money.

D．He was afraid of getting close to visitors.

【2】How was Knut when he grew up?

A．He was as cute as before.

B．He was not popular any more.

C．He was accustomed to being alone.

D．He weighed less than 300 pounds.

【3】What may happen to Knut in the future?

A．No polar bear will live with him.

B．He won’t be happy and cry often.

C．No one is sure about his future life.

D．He won’t be able to have a normal life.

【4】Which of the following would the writer agree with?

A．The zoo should send Knut into the wild.

B．Zookeepers will not take good care of Knut.

C．The zoo should not let visitors take photos with Knut.

D．Zookeepers will try to make Knut live safely and happily.

23、Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, “Happiness depends on ourselves.” In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.

The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Usually, we spend too much time thinking about the future—for example, getting into college or getting a good job that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasure, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several friends often live happier and healthier lives.

Another secret to living a happy life is to be active. Many people do dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.

Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.

【1】The best title（标题）of this passage is ________.

【2】The second paragraph tells us that ________.

A．the more friends you have the happier you are

24、B）根据短文内容和所给中文提示，写出空白处各单词的正确形式。每空限填一词。

There are four seasons in a year in the city.

Spring is from March to May. The weather is 【1】（晴朗的） and warm. The 【2】（温度） is from 5 to 18 【3】（度）. Everything begins to grow. It’s a good time to go on a field trip.
