21、Do you like doing chores? Many kids do housework such as doing the dishes, making the bed and folding the clothes. In exchange, they may get some money or computer time. Paying kids for housework is one of the most popular topics, especially at a time when everyone is more careful about money. Some parents think since adults are paid to do their jobs, we should pay kids for everyday housework.

But some people don’t think kids should get rewards (报酬) for doing housework. Susie Walton, an expert believes that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn’t worth (值得) doing unless you get something in return. “Doing any kind of housework is a team effort.” Walton said. “ A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all have duties in the house, and that families decide how they want their home to look, and how they are going to keep it looking like what they want.”

Other people believe that getting a reward encourages kids to do housework, and that it also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to get money. There are also apps (程序) that give kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed (兑现) either online or in the real world. “Our goal is to help kids do their part and then they can get rewards,” says Chris Bergman. “And kids need rewards to help encourage them.”

A．Doing housework isn’t a team work.

B．People work to get some rewards.

C．Parents decide how their house look.

D．Kids also have duties in the house.

【4】In Paragraph 3, why does Bergman agree paying kids for housework?

A．It teaches kids how to make money.

B．Kids can receive many points and gifts.

C．It encourages kids to do housework.

D．Kids will stay away from housework.

Everyone gets sad. Sad feelings can happen often. Most teenagers feel sad at least once a month.

When you are sad, it feels like it will last for a long time. However, the feeling of sadness usually doesn’t last very long — a few hours or maybe a day or two.

When you are sad, the world seems dark. Many times, you cry and it’s hard to stop. Crying usually makes you feel better. When sadness starts to go away, you will completely become well.

If sad feelings go on for too long, it’s called depression (抑郁症). Children who have depression may not know it. Often, a parent or a teacher knows the changes of them. When depression happens, it’s important for children to do something. Sometimes it means talking to someone. Sometimes it means taking medicine. Sometimes both two ways are used. If you have same problems, it’s important to talk to someone. He or she can help you get away from them.

【1】Sad feelings usually last for a long time.

【2】When you are sad, crying can make you feel better.

【3】The depression doesn’t have to do with sad feelings.

【4】Sometimes talking to someone can treat(治疗) depression.

【5】You may find the passage on a website about health.

24、A well-known poem by Tang dynasty poet Du Mu tells of a sad scene in early April: “Rains fall heavily as Qingming comes, and passers-by with lowered spirits go.”

This scene takes place on Tomb Sweeping Day, also known as Qingming Festival. Tomb Sweeping Day is a traditional Chinese festival. It began in the Zhou dynasty, over 2,500 years ago. Chinese people celebrate it to remember and honor their ancestors (祖先). This year, it falls on April 4. Tomb Sweeping Day became a public holiday in the Chinese mainland in 2008. People have one day off for that day.

On this day, families bring flowers, food and wine to the grave sites ( 墓地) of their ancestors. They place cakes, fruits in front of the graves and some may burn joss paper, as money for the dead. After that, they sweep the tombs and cherish (怀念) the memories of their dead family members．

Tomb Sweeping Day gives us a chance to show respect to our ancestors and family members who have passed away and show that we miss them. This tradition shows that family values are an important part of Chinese culture．

Tomb Sweeping Day is also the beginning of the time for gardening and outdoor activities in China．Families often get together for outings or fly kites at this time．
