21、My name is Jenny. I have been volunteering for about 16 years. I was so weak that I had to stop working. My sister suggested that I should do voluntary work which I had never thought of before.
I then decided to start volunteering in a hospital. The volunteers were making a team and chatting and I thought I’d like to help patients in that way too. In the Chapel (小礼拜堂), we take turns to do prayers (祈祷) for patients and we each have a room where we go and talk to patients. In the hospital, I often make tea and speak to patients especially if I see the patients who are sitting there on their own or don’t have visitors. I go to the Chapel every Wednesday afternoon and go to work in the hospital on the second Monday in a month.
There are so many good things about volunteering—meeting a lot of new people and building a friendship with them. I get as much as the patients do. I feel useful now and it’s terrific to think I am making a difference to somebody. Some people are looking forward to seeing you the next week. Volunteering is the best thing I’ve ever done.
【1】Why did Jenny decide to be a volunteer?
A.She felt lonely.
B.She liked to do voluntary work.
C.She couldn’t work because she was ill.
D.She thought voluntary work was good for her.
【2】Which of the following is TRUE about Jenny?
A.She doesn’t have a sister.
B.She never makes tea for the patients.
C.She goes to the Chapel every Wednesday.
D.She doesn’t like to speak to patients.
【3】How many times does Jenny go to work in the hospital every month?
A.Once.
B.Twice.
C.Three times.
D.Four times.
【4】We can infer (推断) from the passage that ________.
A.Jenny did voluntary work when she had a job.
B.Jenny makes many new friends when doing voluntary work.
C.Jenny feels bored when she does voluntary work.
D.Jenny is not satisfied with her life.
22、Mr father woke me up early one summer morning when I was fourteen and announced(宣布): “Get up, you’re going with me to cut the grass in the garden.”
The idea that my father thought I was old enough to help him in his business made me feel proud and excited. From sunup to sundown, my father, my younger brother and I worked in the large garden. By the end of the day I was too tired to say a word but I felt good. This was my first time to help my father in his business. I got $ 6 for my work that day.
One day my father found some leaves I had missed and pulled me aside. “Take away these leaves!” he said, “and don’t make me have to tell you to do it again.” The message was clear. Today I value(珍视) the importance of doing a job well the first time. It will never fail to impress(给……留下印象) the person you are working for.
After two years, my father told me and my brother that he felt we were old enough to cut the grass by ourselves. Every Saturday during my last two years of high school, we set off early in the morning with the same strong wish we had gained while working under our father.
Looking after the garden was neither exciting nor high paying, but that didn’t matter. It taught me that any job was a good job and that whatever I was paid was more than I had before.
A newspaper reporter once asked me how someone could possibly live with hard work and low pay. “If you’re only thinking about hard work and money, you probably don’t want to do any better than you are doing.” I answered. In every job, from cutting the grass to washing dishes, I’ve learned much. I’ve learned something that helps me in my next job.
If you work hard enough, you can learn from any job you do.
【1】The writer felt proud and cited when he was asked to cut the grass because he thought __________.
A. he could cut the grass himself
B. he could make much money
C. he could enjoy sunup and sundown
D. he could help his family
【2】The word “message” in the passage probably refers to(指) __________.
A. not leaving leaves behind
B. giving no excuse for your mistakes
C. doing a good job at the very beginning
D. missing things which can be found out
【3】When the writer finished high school, maybe he was __________ years old.
A. fourteen B. eighteen C. twenty D. twenty-two
【4】Which of the following does the writer probably think is the most important?
A. Keeping learning from any job you had.
B. Asking no money for work.
C. Finishing work as quickly as possible.
D. Keeping looking for different jobs.
【5】The writer probably thinks his father is __________.
A. lazy B. helpful C. careless D. funny
23、Once upon a time, a young man wanted to go to a village on business. Halfway there was a moutain. Before he left home, his family warned (提醒) him to stay calm and climb onto the trees if he was in face of beasts (野兽). In this way, the beasts couldn’t do anything to him. The young man remembered these words and began his trip.
He walked for a long time carefully and found no beasts were out there. He thought his family’s worries were unnecessary. And he became relaxed as he walked. Just at that moment, he saw a fierce (凶猛的) tiger running to him and he climbed onto a tree nearby at once.
The tiger roared (咆哮) around the tree and even jumped to reach the man. The young man was too scared to hold the tree and fell right on the back of the tiger. Full of fear, he had to hold the tiger tightly. The tiger thought that must be a giant beast. So it was afraid and started running madly.
People on the road didn’t know what happened and said, “Look at the young man. He is riding a tiger! Cool! Superman!”
Hearing these words, the young man was very angry. “Why can’t they see I’m suffering a lot? Don’t they understand I am in fear and almost scared to death?” He said to himself.

24、动词应用
根据短文内容,用括号内所给动词的适当形式填空,必要时可加助动词或情态动词。
One of the world’s most important and lovely animals is quickly disappearing (消失). Can you guess which one it is? It 【1】 (have) the longest neck among all animals. Yes, it’s the giraffe.
In 1985, there were between 152,000 and 163,000 giraffes, and they 【2】 (live) in the plains(平原) and forests in Africa, “The number of giraffes has fallen by as much as 40 percent since the 1980s,” says a new reporter on endangered wild animals and plants.
Why are there fewer and fewer giraffes? Because humans 【3】 (cut) down many trees to build more houses. And they are also killing the animals 【4】 (get) their meat. A report from the International Union for Conversation of Nature (国际自然保护联盟) says, “ Giraffes 【5】 (disappear) silently in the near future. And it is time that we do something for the giraffe before it is too late.”
