21、   Eating less meat is becoming more common all over the world. In the US, for example, there is a campaign(活动)called Meatless Mondays. The idea is to have meatless meals every Monday. By the end of 2018, 230 middle and primary schools in the US had joined this campaign, according to Southern Weekly. These schools give students a vegetarian breakfast and lunch every Monday.

How did Meatless Mondays become part of food culture in the West? The first reason is that it's healthy. Many studies have shown that eating less meat is good for people's health. -Vegetarian diets can make some diseases （疾病），like obesity （肥胖）and heart problems less." scientist Sharon Palmer told CNN. **Even going meatless one day a week can make a difference."

But it’s not only about health. A study from Nature found that animal products（制品） create a lot of greenhouse gases. Specifically, they account for 78 percent of total emissions （排放）.If we eat less meat, it will be better for the environment.

In March this year, New York Mayor Bill de Blasio said that all public schools in New York City would join the Meatless Mondays campaign. Joining the campaign, he said, will help us stay healthy and keep our planet green for the future.

【2】Paragraphs 2-3 mainly talk about________.

A.food traditions in the west countries B.how some diseases come from

C.how much meat we need to cat each day D.how eating less meat can help us

【3】What does the passage mainly tell us?

A.Eating vegetables is the best way to stay healthy. B.Eating less meat is also popular in the East.

C.Students can get good eating habits easily. D.More people are eating less meat.

22、In our daily life, we often have to ask others to do things for us. The languages we use to ask for help will be different in different situations (情形). We are usually more polite when we are asking another person to do something for us.

The language also, of course, shows the relationship (关系) between the person who needs help and the person who will give help. If we are asking a stranger (陌生人) to do something, we use language which is much more polite than when speaking to a workmate in the office or a friend. For example, you need a person to help you turn on the printer (打印机). If a stranger is near it, you may say, “Could you please turn on the printer?” But if your friend is there, you may say, “Hi, turn on the printer for me.”

【1】The second paragraph tells us ________.

A．we should ask for help when we are working

23、Here’s a difficult question. Are you happy?

It’s difficult because it depends on whom you compare yourself with. Most people compare themselves with those around them. Am I happier than my classmates or my friends? We also compare ourselves with people we never meet. When we compare so, we may feel sad easily.

People like sad stories. We are interested in other people’s sadness, but we don’t let others know our own. Psychologists (心理学家) find that people don’t feel like telling others when they’re sad or upset, but will shout if they are happy. People often show their happiness in public (公共场) while hiding their sadness.

As the famous thinker Montesquieu said about 300years ago: “If we only want to be happy, it will be easy. But if we want to be happier than other people, it is almost always difficult. Because we think they are happier than us.”

【1】When we often compare ourselves with others, we may feel ______.

A．excited

B．interested

C．sad

【2】Why do people like sad stories?

A．Because sad stories are interesting.

B．Because they are interested in other people’s sadness.

C．Because they want other people to know their happiness.

【3】When people are in public, they often show they are ______.

A．happy

B．successful

C．upset

【4】The underlined word “hiding” means “ ” in Chinese.

B．It’s always difficult to feel happier than others.

C．People will feel happy when they are alone.
