21、   When I was a kid, I often played basketball. So I was thin but healthy. When I was about 15, I stopped playing basketball. I also started to drink a lot of drinks high in sugar and eat much more than before. Between 15 and 17, I put on a lot of weight (重量) — about 50 kg.

I didn’t know how big I was until I saw a photo one day. In the photo, I had a fat neck and my stomach was out there. I hated the way I looked. I knew I needed to lose some weight.

I started to drink only water, and eat less and healthier. I ate mainly vegetables and only one piece of meat every day, and stayed away from sugar.

I also started to exercise. Every day, I ran for 30 minutes first, and then I did some push-ups (俯卧撑) for 10 minutes. I also jumped rope for 15 minutes every day.

22、   Iceland lies in the North Atlantic Ocean. It is the second largest island in Europe. The country has a total area of 103,000 square kilometers and a coastline of about 6,600 km. The island is 300 km wide from north to south, and 500 km across from west to east.

From 1262 to 1944 Iceland was ruled first by Norway and then by Denmark. Centuries of foreign rule, and such things as volcanoes(火山) and the weather, made life very difficult at times for the Icelanders: there was lots of hard work and little change. The situation began to improve during the nineteenth century. Then in 1944 Iceland became an independent republic; since that time it has become a quite rich country where the people enjoy having cars, modern houses and lots of electrical equipment. If you look at the kind of products that Iceland exports today—fish, meat and wool for example—it’s easy to see that both the sea and the land are important to Icelanders. This has been true in fact since the time of the first Icelanders—Vikings from Norway who arrived in AD874.

Some things in the lives of the Icelanders have changed very little—the Icelandic language, for example, 700 years ago the stories called Sagas were first written down, these can still be read in the old language without much difficulty by Icelandic speakers today.

【1】In Iceland, the distance from north to south is _________that from west to east.

A.much longer than B.shorter than

C.the same as D.a little longer than

【2】What has hardly changed in Iceland?

A.Exporting products. B.The Icelandic language.

C.House equipment. D.The lives of the Icelanders.

【3】Which of the following sentences is NOT true?

A.Iceland has been an independent republic since Vikings began to live there.

B.Iceland is a country of many small islands.

C.Iceland is not the largest island in the world,

D.Iceland is quite a modern country now.

23、

An elephant made her way into a forest. It was a new place for her. She hoped to make some friends. She walked up to a monkey and said, “Hello, monkey! Will you be my friend?” The monkey said, “You are too big to swing like me, so I can’t be your friend.”

The elephant then went to a rabbit and asked the same question. The rabbit said, “You are too big to fit in my burrow (洞穴), so I can’t be your friend.” The elephant also went to a frog and asked the same question. The frog said, “You are too heavy to jump as high as me, so I can’t be your friend.”

The elephant was sad. She couldn’t make friends! Then one day, she saw all the animals running into the forest. She asked a bear what was happening. The bear said, “The lion is hunting for food. They are running away from him.”

The elephant went up to the lion and said, “Please don’t eat these animals!” The lion laughed and asked the elephant to leave. Then, the elephant got angry and pushed the lion as hard as she could, scaring him away. All the other animals slowly came out and saw that the lion was gone.

24、       Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true.

       Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it’s hard for you to communicate with your parents, don’t worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代沟).

       Don’t argue (争辩) with your parents. Don’t get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don’t think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.

       Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael’s mother didn’t agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.

       Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.

       Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.

       A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!
