21、MONEY-SAVING TIPS FOR DISNEY WORLD
Every time you visit Disney World, there’s something new to see. The Magic Kingdom (王国) now includes the high-tech, movie-made Disney and Animal Kingdom. The park is becoming bigger, and you may need to spend more money, too. How can you save? I’ve been to the park more than 25 times with my kids, and I’ve found a few money-saving tips for you.
Eat out at Lunchtime: The prices at some of the nicer restaurants are much lower at noontime than at any other time. It’s clever to make reservations (预定) before you leave home. Call 407-W-DISNEY.
Become a Gold Card Member: With $65, you can get a Magic Kingdom Club Gold Card (call 1-800-56-DISNEY). Cardholders get up to 20% off Disney hotel rooms, theme park tickets and things from Disney stores.
Don’t Pay Extra (额外) to See a Character: Character-theme dinner shows are expensive, costing a family of four about $140, and even a character breakfast can set you back $50. Try to meet the characters inside the theme parks and at free in-park shows.
Wait until the End of Your Trip to Buy Souvenirs: At that time, the kids will really know what they want, and you won’t waste money on expensive things.
【1】What is Animal Kingdom?

22、We all dream about things that we would like to do and things we hope to achieve in the future. But are everybody’s dreams the same? Here are some of the findings of a survey about hopes and dreams, and thousands of students across China took part in it.
What are the hopes of teenagers?
We received several different answers to the question: What would you like to do after finishing your education? It seems some students would like to start work as soon as possible so that they can help provide better lives for their parents. Other students hope to continue studying after finishing school and to go to university. Although money is important, many teenagers said they wanted to do jobs they enjoyed. According to the survey, the most popular choice of job is computer programming.
What are the dreams of teenagers?
Teenagers have all kinds of dreams. Some are more realistic(现实的)than others. For example, many students said they would like to be volunteers if Beijing could hold the World Cup, maybe working as translators or tour guides. And quite a few said they dreamed of going to the Moon one day. According to the survey, less realistic dreams are also common, but many students reported that they were willing to work hard to achieve their dreams. Quite a few dreamed of becoming famous, perhaps famous sportspeople or singers. Some said they’d like to go on exciting trips. One student said she’d love to sail across the Pacific Ocean. And then there are dreams that are impossible—three students said they’d like to be able to fly!
Conclusion
It was clear from the survey that teenagers have similar hopes. It seems that most students hope to have a good education and find a good job. Besides, students dreamed of very different things: good things, and even crazy things. It is very important to dream, so hold on your dreams and one day they may just come true.

23、In the 1950s, a female swimmer set a goal for herself. She decided to swim across the English Channel(海峡) before she retired(退休). If she could make it, she would be the first person in the world who did it.
On that day, she jumped into the sea and swam towards the opposite bank.
In the journey, she faced heavy fog, heavy rain and heavy waves(波浪). Though she was very tired, she carried on swimming.
But in the end, she gave up. And what she didn’t know at the moment she gave up was that the opposite bank(海岸) was only 1 mile away.
Later people asked her about the reason. And she said “The reason why I gave up is that I could not see the destination(目的地) which I was so close to.”
Too many success stories have been telling us about courage and persistence(坚持). But they never told us where to find courage(勇气) and persistence.
You can have courage only when you know where your goal is. You can succeed in persisting only when you know where your goal is, and prepare yourself well mentally(心理上).
Courage and persistence never fall from the sky. They come from weighing between input and output.
A life without goals is like a ship without a compass(指南针). It goes nowhere. There is no courage or persistence in a life without goals.

A.The bank was one mile away.
B.She was too tired.
C.She didn’t have courage at first.
D.She thought her destination was far away.
【3】What can be inferred (推论) from the last sentence of the passage?
A.If you have courage and persistence, you have goals.
B.Even if you have no goals, you have courage to persist.
C.There is no courage or persistence unless you know your goals.
D.Between input and output, you must find courage and persistence.
