1、 It was the summer before my third grade. Our girls’ softball team (垒球队) was facing real pitchers (投手) for the first time. Before that, we could just hit the ball on the tee (球座). 1.当老师开始投球时,击球对我来说变得困难。I missed every single pitch. From the sideline (边线), I heard my teammate Emily laughing at me. My face got hot and my throat felt like it had a softball stuck in. At that moment, I was starting to hate playing softball.
2. The next afternoon, when it was time to play the game. I told Mum I was sick. She allowed me to relax for a while. 3.于是我去了房间,躺在床上。This was difficult for me because I was fine and just wanted to avoid softball.
Soon Mum came in and said, “Time to go!” She didn’t even ask if I felt better. 4. I imagined Emily laughing from the sideline, and suddenly I really did feel sick to my stomach. I began crying loudly. Still, Mum pulled my team T-shirt over my head. She said, “You have to play for the rest of the season, and only after that we can talk about whether you’ll continue next year.” She added that practice was what I needed, not giving up. She promised to practice with me.
I got two hits that afternoon, and Emily didn’t make a sound. 5. Every week after that, I practiced at home until I got to be one of the best hitters on the team.
That experience taught me being afraid is part of life, and I can do whatever is expected of me if I keep working and practicing.

21、
Big data (大数据) is a lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program. The computer program looks for different kinds of answers or patterns(样本) in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources(来源), such as information that comes from schools, social media sites, companies and governments. One set of data can have people’s names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer.
Big data can be used in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra help in class. The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream.
Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict (预测) if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby, so he or she does not get sick. Big data can also be used for bad reasons. It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong.
How can big data be used for good and bad things? It is because the computer programs which is used to look at big data and understand it are written by people. People think in a certain way. Because they think in a certain way, they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data. Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people.

23、 This morning I got an email from Roy. It seems that my boy really enjoys his new life at college.
The email made me think of the first day when we moved into this house.
Little Roy ran around the new house with joy and tried to move his own things into the house such as his toys, books and clothes. Suddenly, his little hand knocked over some paint on the table. The paint made the tidy floor and white wall very dirty. “Oh, my God!” My wife ran into the room angrily, I looked at my son, and he was so afraid that he said nothing.
I smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Roy. Now let’s do something special.” I took out a brush. “You see, Dad is good at magic shows. I can change it into a big free tree.”
His mother soon joined us and helped paint some flowers on the wall. We spent all the afternoon painting and laughing. The wall became a beautiful forest with plants, birds and small animals. Roy also painted blue sky and white clouds. On that day, everyone in the house knew something special happened.
The night before Roy left for college, he asked me if I still remembered the day when he had knocked over the paint. “Dad, you helped me out that day. After it, I never worry about making mistakes.” he said, “I believe I can always find out ways to solve the problems.”
That’s for sure. Making mistakes is part of life. When we make a mistake, what we shouldn't do is to run away from it. Mistakes can be helpful if we make good use of them. In fact, our attitude(态度) towards them may be more important.
【1】When the boy knocked some paint over, _____________.
A.Roy’s mother cleaned the floor carefully B.Roy’s father did something special to Roy
C.it made his parents very angry D.Roy cried and he ran out of the house
【2】How did Roy feel all the afternoon?
A.Busy but happy. B.Afraid and worried.
C.Afraid and tired. D.Worried but busy.
【3】Why did his mother join them soon?
A.Because she wanted to clean the wall together.
B.Because she thought it was hard for them to paint trees and flowers together.
C.Because she thought it was a way to change mistakes into something nice.
D.Because she didn’t think the forest on the wall was beautiful enough.
【4】What does the writer mainly want to tell us in the passage?
A.Mistakes are important to everyone.
B.We should try not to make mistakes.
C.One’s attitude towards mistakes is very important.
D.Everyone must learn to pay for their mistakes.
24、My wife got sick. She was nervous because 【1】 problems at work, her own life, her failures and problems with children. She lost 30 pounds and now she is only 90 pounds in her 35 years. She was not a happy woman.

She refused to work. I lost hope and thought that we would get divorced(离婚) soon… 【5】 then I decided to act on it.
I began to 【6】 her some flowers from the shop, kiss more and hug more. I surprised her and pleased her every minute. I gave her too 【7】 gifts and lived just for her. I said beautiful words about her in front of her own and our friends.
