22、   Long time ago, there lived a young boy with a family in a small village. Because there was little water in the village, the boy woke up early every morning, carried his pot and headed for the stream with the aim of fetching water. He loved his family and tried to carry out his task.

On his way back from the stream, he always met some old men who begged for water. This happened almost every time. He always gave them water though he would be punished（惩罚）by his stepmother.

One day, he couldn't stand the punishment from his step mother, so he decided never to give anyone water. But on his way back home, he met a strange-looking man who begged him for water. The strange man lay by the road with an injury（伤）. The boy remembered his vow, but he thought for a moment and then gave the strange man some water.

When he got home, his stepmother noticed the half-filled pot, and again punished him more severely（严厉地）. As she was beating this young boy, there was a knock on the door. It was a mail-deliverer. He came from the town with a letter for the boy. The letter contained a thank-you note with some cash（现金）for the young boy. The writer of the letter said in the letter that he'd have died on the way if not for the boy's kindness.

24、Why think of road safety? It is because of the accidents that occur every day on the road. These accidents mean losing rife or wealth and more than traffic jams. So if people aren’t educated on the importance of road safety, the situation can’t be avoided.

Accidents have many causes. The simplest is people slipping down on the road caused by a banana skin. Without meaning any harm, a person may throw away the banana skin on the road. When a person steps on, he or she will slip down ending in broken bones and sometimes even more dangerous. So people must take care and throw them in a bin. In some countries, the offenders are seriously punished. The second cause is careless crossing in busy roads instead of crossing along zebra crossings. One should keep to the sidewalk of the road while walking and the vehicles must keep to their lanes in busy streets.

Also, there are many causes for the accidents about vehicles. One is trying to overtake. Another is not noticing the signals. “Stop, look and go” is the basic rule, it will save vehicles from accidents. Riding two or three side by side is always dangerous. Very often the cause of accidents is the failure of the brake system which means the owner of the vehicle does not keep the machine in good condition.

Road safety is a matter of education in which schools can share responsibility. Through class meetings, children can be taught the importance of observing the rules of the road. As soon as the bell goes, children rush out and accidents do happen. Therefore, teachers must feel it their day to control the traffic near the school. The polie can help schools at rush hours.

To make people aware of road safety, media can play a useful role. The newspaper, the wall poster and the cinema and now the TV can deliver information. There may be speeches over the radio by the police officials or advertisements about being careful on roads before films or TV programs.

25、根据首字母提示补全短文。

Plants are very important living things. Life could not go on if there were n【1】 plants. This is because plants can make food from air, w【2】 and sunlight. A【3】 and humans cannot make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals get their food by eating plants and o【4】 animals. So animals and humans need plants to live. This is why we find that there are so many plants a【5】 us.

If you look c【6】 at the plants around you, you will find that there are two k【7】 of plants: flowering planst and non-flowering (不开花的) plants. Flowering plants can make seeds (种子). Fruits p【8】 the seeds. Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. B【9】 a few fruits have no seeds at all.

Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds. They grow from spores (孢子). Spores are very, very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds. When these spores fall in w【10】 and shady (阴凉的) places, they usually grow into new plants.
