One of the main reasons is that people can make lots of things from bamboo, like beds, chairs and spoons. 2.在纸张出现之前，人们在竹子上写字。 People also used bamboo to make weapons for catching animals or fighting in ancient(古代的) China. Besides, bamboo shoots(笋)were a popular dish, because they were crisp and delicious. 3. It was easy to find bamboo in Chinese medicine.

Today we can still find bamboo all over the land(土地) of China.

Bamboo is always a subject of many poems and paintings. For example, Su Dongpo, said that people could not live without bamboo. People love it for its purity(纯洁) and elegance(优雅). They compare the qualities of bamboo to those of man. 5.所以竹子在中国传统文化中起到了重要作用。

22、阅读下面三篇材料，然后从各题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。

It was a cold winter afternoon before Christmas. My parents and I sat on the bench in Washington, D.C.’s Union Station, waiting for the train. Inside the waiting hall were many people.

A boy sat nearby. His worn jacket, pale face, dirty hands all seemed to tell me that he was homeless.” He must be cold and hungry. Maybe I should help him,” I said to myself. Just at that moment, a well-dressed young couple walked towards him.” Excuse me,” the man bent down. “My wife and I bought two meal boxes but one was enough for us. We hate to waste good food. Can you help us out and put this to use?” he handed the boy a meal box. The boy thanked them and opened the box with joy and care. Suddenly he stopped.

In the direction to which he looked, I saw an old man in rags-in a worn sweater, worn trousers and open shoes, coming into the hall. Putting the meal box aside, the boy stood and helped the old to his seat. He took off his jacket and covered it on the old man’s shoulders,

saying, “A gentleman brought me this warm meal but I just finished eating. I hate to waste good food. Can you help me out?” He placed the still-warm meal box in the old man’s hands without waiting for an answer.” Sure, son, but if only you share that sandwich with me. It’s too much for a man at my age. ”

We were all touched. Dad went away and soon returned with cups of hot chocolate and a big pizza. Mum and dad went up to those rags, “Excuse me…”

I rushed into a KFC and took out my pocket money. It was so cold that afternoon but I felt much warmer than I had ever thought possible.

24、There are moments in my life I remember forever. It’s p【1】 to remember the good things of the past. These memories are always in the c【2】 of my mind.

When I was four years old, I went to a kindergarten. The teachers in my eyes were all beautiful and patient. They t【3】 us many interesting songs and games. We p【4】 all day long. I did not know what learning was at that time, but I was learning every day.

When I was seven years old, I started school. I was very excited b【5】 I began to learn school subjects. I became interested in s【6】 instead of singing. I remember the day when our science teacher told us the sun is l【7】 a big fire ball and that it is very, very far away. She also said nobody can stay close to that “ball”.
