21、   Du Fu (712-770), one of the greatest poets in China, is familiar to most of us.

However, Du has remained largely unknown in the Western world.

The one-hour documentary (纪录片) Du Fu: China’s Greatest Poet, introduces the great poet to Western audiences. As the first English-language documentary about Du, it compares him to Dante and Shakespeare, two of the greatest literature (文学) masters of the West.

In the film, British historian Michael Wood explores the poet’s life. He visits a number of places, such as the poet’s birthplace Gongyi in Henan province and the Du Fu Thatched Cottage (杜甫草堂) in Chengdu, Sichuan, where Du used to live. Along the way, he meets and talks to people who help to tell the fascinating story of the poet. The film also includes interviews with scholars (学者) and recitals (朗诵) of Du’s works by British actor Sir Ian McKellen, who is known for performing Shakespeare’s works.

The documentary explains why Du’s works have been popular for centuries. “Chinese people really value the recording of history and Du Fu is better than anyone at reflecting (反映) history in his poetry. That’s because historical events are mirrored in his own life and spiritual (精神的) journey,” said Zeng Xiangbo, a professor at Renmin University.

Du lived under the rule of the Tang Emperor Xuanzong (713-756), a time of prosperity (繁荣). He was a civil servant (文职人员) in the Tang court (朝廷). But as the An Lushan Rebellion of 755 floored the empire, he escaped, took his family on the road as refugees (难民), and suffered starvation (饥饿) and poverty. Through ups and downs, the poet never stopped writing, pouring out his concern for his country and people, as well as celebrating the simple joys of life. Known as China’s “saint of poetry”, he wrote about 1,400 poems that are still with us today.

【1】Which of the following is one of the greatest masters of the West?

A．Dante.

B．Du Fu.

C．Michael Wood.

D．Sir Ian Mckellen.

【2】What can we know about the documentary?

A．It is famous in the Western world.

B．It introduces Du to Western people.

C．Du visits a number of places in China.

D．Du is known as China’s “saint of poetry”.

【3】Why are Du’s works popular for centuries?

A．Because Du’s works are still with us today.

B．Because Du is one of the greatest poets in China.

C．Because Du is the best at recording history in his works.

D．Because Du is good at celebrating the simple joys of life.

【4】From Du’s life, we can know that ________.

A．Du left his family in the war

B．Du lived in a hard life all the time

C．Du stopped writing because of hunger

D．Du worried about his country and people

22、Many kids help parents to do chores in the house. They may take out the trash, walk the dog or sweep the floor. In return, some kids get money or other rewards from their parents, such as 20 minutes to play computer games.

But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. One of them is Jane Smith, a parenting educator and family coach. She believes if kids get rewards, they may think that work isn’t worth doing unless you get something in return. For example, kids won’t sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will do it if their parents reward them for it.

“Every house is a team effort,” Jane said. “A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all have a responsibility to keep our home clean.”

Other people hold different opinions. They believe that money or other rewards encourage kids to do more chores. It also teaches them real world lessons. They can learn about how we work to make money.

Now, there are also apps that encourage kids to do chores. The apps give kids points and digital (数字的) gifts that can be used either online or in life. With the app ChoreMonster, kids earn digital points after doing chores. Kids can exchange their points for real rewards, such as time to play video games or a trip to the mall. “Our goal is to encourage kids, so they can earn rewards,” says Joe Black, founder of ChoreMonster.

“Kids need positive (积极的) power to make them do chores.”

【1】Jane Smith thinks that ________.

A．housework isn’t worth doing

B．kids are not willing to do chores

C．kids should get something in return

D．kids shouldn’t get rewards for doing chores

【2】What’s the purpose of the apps mentioned in the passage?

A．To give kids points and gifts.

B．To encourage kids to do chores.

C．To exchange points for real rewards.

D．To give kids advice on doing chores.

【3】The passage mainly talks about ________.

A．how to encourage kids to do chores.

B．what kind of chores kids should do.

C．if kids should do chores at home.

D．whether kids should be rewarded for doing chores.

23、A girl went to her father to ask for his advice. She was having a hard time in life. It seemed that when one problem disappeared, another one appeared. It was terrible!

Her father, a cook, took her into the kitchen. He took out pans and poured water into the pans to boil. After the water boiled, he put some carrots into the first pan, some eggs into the second pan and coffee beans into the last one.

After 20 minutes, her father turned off the stove, took out the carrots and eggs and put them in a bowl. He poured the coffee into a cup.

“Dear, what do you see?” he asked his daughter.

“Carrots, eggs, and coffee,” she said.

“Touch the carrots,” he told her. She did and felt that the carrots were soft. After that he asked her to take an egg and break it. She found that the egg was hard. At last, her father asked her to taste the coffee.

“What’s the meaning, father?” she asked.

“The strong and hard carrots became soft and weak after boiling. The fragile（脆弱的）eggs became hard in the boiling water. The coffee beans were very special, but they changed the water around them.”

Her father said, “As you can see, each thing reacted differently to the boiling water.”

“Who are you?” asked her father. “When you have problems, what will you do? Are you carrots, eggs, or coffee?”

24、阅读下面短文，用括号内所给动词的适当形式填空 (必要时可加情态动词或助动词)。

One pleasant New-year morning, Edward’s father gave him two bright, new silver dollars. He had wishes for a long time【1】（buy）some new books. As he ran down the street to the bookstore, he saw a poor German family, the father, mother and three children【2】(walk) in the cold wind. “I 【3】(wish) you a Happy New Year.” said Edward, as he was passing on happily.

“I【7】(buy) no books,” said he. “I gave my money to some poor people, who seemed 【8】(be) very hungry and tired. I think I【9】(wait) for my books till next New Year.”“ My dear boy,” said his father, “here are some books. I give them to you, more as a reward for your goodness of heart than as a New-year gift.”

“Always be ready to help people around you and every year of your life【10】(be) a HAPPY NEW YEAR!”
