21、I didn’t think I had a passion (激情). I would sit in front of the TV all day, thinking about nothing but the next show.

It was not long ago that I first learned how important having a passion is to life.

On that day I went with my mom to drop my sister off at the gym (体育馆). 【1】 Then, as my mom stopped at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed in rags (破旧衣服). He was homeless. That didn’t interest me, for I saw many like him before.

【2】 This man was not sitting down with a sad expression (表情). He had a radio in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the best thing he had.

“Mom, why does that man have a radio even though he’s homeless?” I asked.

“He bought it,” she replied.

“But if he’s homeless, why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? 【3】”

“Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important things. We need happiness, too.”

That man must care enough about music to buy a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized that happiness is the key to life. Without it, there’s nothing to look forward to. 【4】

A．I was bored.

B．The man was very sad.

C．But in a way he was different.

D．He wasted it on something he doesn’t need.

E．A passion gives a person the happiness they need to keep going.

22、Coffee is an important part of Italian culture. I have been in Italy for over six months and I have drunk a lot of it!

Of course, coffee is also very popular in the UK, my home country, but coffee culture in Italy is a different story. In Italy, when you order a coffee in a bar (小馆子), you will get a small espresso. This is normal coffee for Italians and they are not so interested in the big coffee that we drink in the UK. And takeaway (外卖食物) coffee is very popular in the UK, but it is not very common at all in Italy. Usually, Italians like to drink coffee in a bar and, for many, this short time is an important part of their day.

Breakfast in a bar in Italy usually involves (包括) a coffee and a pastry (油酥糕点). I like this kind of breakfast. Cappuccino is a very popular coffee drink at breakfast time and, for me, a cappuccino and a pastry is the perfect way to start the day.

Finally, I have found that coffee in Italy is much cheaper than that in the UK. Normally, an espresso costs around €1.00 and a cappuccino about €1.50 in Italy! They are small, of course, but this means that in Italy it is possible to often go out for coffee and you won’t break the bank.

【1】Where does the writer come from?

A．The USA.

B．The UK.

C．Italy.

D．Canada.

【2】Italians usually drink coffee _______.

A．in a bar

B．after breakfast

C．in a big cup

D．at home

【3】What is the perfect way to start the day for the writer?

A．Having a big breakfast.

B．Exercising for a short time.

C．Having a cappuccino and a pastry.

D．Enjoying takeaway coffee from a bar.

【4】An espresso is about _______ cheaper than a cappuccino in Italy.

A．€0.50

B．€1.00

C．€1.50

D．€2.50

【5】What does the underlined part “you won’t break the bank” mean in Chinese?

A．你会倾家荡产

B．你能负担得起

C．你不能抢银行

D．你不能向银行贷款

23、   Henry was worried. This was his first time to take a plane. He was taking a trip to Hong Kong. He didn’t know how to find his seat, so he went to the air hostess (空姐) and asked, “Could you help me? I can’t find my seat.” The air hostess showed him his seat and told him to sit down and fasten the seat belt (系上安全带).

She told Henry, “Sir, don’t move about when the plane went up-you had to sit in your seat for a few minutes. And your ears might feel a little uncomfortable when the plane went up, but you didn’t need to worry about it, because many people felt like that. When the plane flew very high, you could stand up and walk around. You could also read books and newspapers, listen to music or watch films. Three other air hostesses and I would bring food and drinks. If you need, please tell us.”

“Oh, thank you. It’s great that I can watch films on the plane. I won’t be bored all the way. Thank you so much,” said Harry.

【1】Where was Henry going?

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?
