21、“Reading makes a full man” (Bacon, 1597). Novels written by the writers like Jane Austen, Victor Hugo and Ernest Hemingway help us to know more about our history, culture and many other things.

22、   I used to be an active girl. But two years ago, an English speaking competition held in my school changed me a lot.

I stood on the stage（讲台）for the first time. I was so nervous that my brain（大脑）suddenly became empty. Not long after I began my speech, the hall turned noisy. It seemed that they were laughing at me. I knew I failed.

From then on, I became quiet and always stayed alone. I didn’t want to express my ideas in public, even in class. Every time I wanted to say something, I thought people would laugh at me. My friends couldn’t understand me, and they left me, one by one.

One day, my science teacher asked us why trees in forests were much taller than those in the wild. “Ha, what a silly question!” I thought.

“There’s not enough space in the woods for trees to expand their branches. Of course they have to grow taller than others. The trees in the wild needn’t do that since there’s enough space,” I said in a low voice.

To my surprise, the teacher said, “Yes, you’re right. It is a competition.” My face turned red right now. I hadn’t spoken for a long time, especially in public.

Then the teacher explained how trees in forests had to grow taller to receive more sunlight. If not, they would die. This also happened in our society.

What’s more, the tree that doesn’t live in a crowd is just like a person who has no friends in life.

I raised my head slowly and found the teacher was looking at me. His eyes were as warm as sunshine. I realized that I must stand up and face the truth.

根据短文内容，判断下列句子正（T）误（F）。

【1】We can know there was an English speaking competition two years ago from the first paragraph.

【2】The hall turned noisy because the weather was too hot.

【3】After the competition, the writer lost her confidence.

【4】The science teacher’s question was difficult.

【5】From the story, we can guess the writer is likely to stand up from her seat after the science class.

24、   When I was a kid, I got interested in astronomy(天文学), I often watched northern lights in my hometown in Lapland. I used to wonder how big the universe might be and what are “behind” the stars. But as I grew up and finally went to college, I hardly had any time to develop my hobby because of too much homework. It was in 2009 that I rediscovered astronomy. I found an astronomy magazine in a library and immediately I got interested in astronomy again.

When I start reading astronomy books and magazines, I start finding out how many interesting things there are outside the planet. I realize that the information I am reading, hearing and watching opens a door to a huge world of interesting things.

However, I do not have much time for my hobbies. Many times I would like to observe an object in the night sky, but I am working or I have to look after my kids. So I share my hobbies with my kids. I encourage them to observe the stars together with me. I read kids’ astronomy books for them and tell them about the moon, stars, the sun and many other interesting things. We all find it interesting at the same time.

I enjoy astronomy as a hobby and I hope other parents like me can read books and magazines about it. Just imagine that you and your family sit together watching the stars and talking in the garden on a summer night! How cool it will be!
