21、My name is Sally. When I was ten years old, I had a lot of friends. But looking back now, my best friend was someone I never really thought of as my friend, Rina.

Rina is four years older than I. She and I used to live in the same neighborhood. She went to an art and dance school in the city. Every afternoon when I played in the yard (院子) with my brother Kevin, I would see her walking home from the train station.

During the weekend, there was always something to do, thanks to Rina. She was good at drawing, so she would teach me and my brother how to draw. She also made up amazing games with interesting characters for us to play. Sometimes, Kevin taught Rina and me basketball and I taught them guitar.

One day, I was sitting in the yard. It was my birthday, but I was sad. Rina appeared and gave me a CD and a picture she had drawn for me. I was really surprised. To this day, I still don’t know how Rina remembered my birthday, but I’m glad she did.

Now I’m seventeen and I’m in high school. When I get home from the train station, I always see Alex, the little boy who lives down the street, and his sister Jenny. Sometimes I make up games for them to play. And sometimes I teach them how to draw. I’m happy to watch Alex and Jenny laugh and play. It reminds me of Rina, a girl who left many wonderful memories (回忆) in my heart.

22、The wonderful medicine

24、In your life, there are a lot of people around you. They are your relatives, neighbors, friends or classmates. Sometimes you get along well with them, but sometimes you don’t. What can you do when someone hurts you? Most people may be angry or even fight with him/her. But it’s not a good idea. You’d better forget all this and forgive(原谅) him/her.

Maybe it’s not easy for you to do that, but it’s possible. Please remember: Keep a good mood, and you will keep healthy. Staying angry with others, in fact, means letting others’ mistakes treat yourself unfairly.

How can you forgive others?

First, think of something pleasant and try to get yourself happy.

Second, don’t wait others to say sorry to you. If anyone hurts you, he perhaps won’t say sorry to you. He may just want to hurt you or just not see things the same way as you do.

Third, try to see things in others’ shoes. You can understand their minds better and make yourself a little happier.

At last, try to know yourself very well. Whose mistakes caused that, yours or others? If it’s your fault, try to say sorry to them. If it isn’t, smile at the thing.

【1】Forgiving others is _________ according to the writer’s opinion.

A．easy

B．foolish

C．possible

A．Anger doesn’t make a difference to your health.

B．Thinking something pleasant makes you happy.

C．Someone may hurt you because of different ideas.

D．You should say sorry if it's your fault.

25、   Everyone likes to have fun, but not everyone has much money to spend. Here are some free or cheap ways to enjoy yourself.

Get outside

Going outside in good weather can be a lot of fun, especially if you go with a friend. H【1】 or cycle on a nearby path or in a park. If you live in a city, you can go window shopping, or you can explore an old part of town and admire (欣赏) the buildings.

Try a hobby

While you’re out and about, take pictures of things you find. Planning and taking pictures can make you see the beauty all around you. And you’ll end up with interesting photos. Photographic equipment can be expensive, but it doesn’t have to be. You p【2】 already own a camera or a cellphone that can take pictures. Other creative hobbies can also be done with basic (基本) m【3】. Drawing and writing require nothing more than a pencil and paper.

Find an event

Libraries often hold free public events. Stop by one to find out what’s going on. And while you’re there, borrow a book or movie for free. Museums and universities a【4】 hold free events.

If you can’t find a free event, you can volunteer at an event that requires tickets. People who organize concerts and plays need help. You could set up or take down chairs or greet visitors. Sometimes they reward (奖励) volunteers with free tickets.

Meet a friend

Relationships are often the best thing in life. Whatever you do, find someone to share it with. Invite a friend for a walk, an event or a time working on your hobby. Hosting (招待) doesn’t have to be difficult. If your friend comes in the afternoon, you don’t have to serve a meal. I【5】, you can sit and talk, play board games or card games or watch a movie.

You don’t need money to have a fun day.
