21、   All big cities are quite similar. Living in a modern Asian city is not very different from living in an American city. But it is different from living on farms however.

In many parts of the world, farmers and their families live in villages or towns. In the United States, however, each family lives on its own fields and often can't see any neighbor. Instead of traveling from a village to the fields every morning. American farmers stay on their land all the week. They travel to the nearest town on Saturdays for shopping or on Sundays for church. The children ride on horses to large schools which serve all of the farm families living in the area. In some areas there are some small schools serving a few families and the children walk to school.

Of course, life keeps changing for everyone including farmers. Today there are cars, good roads, radios and TV sets. And of course, there are modern machines for faming now. All these have greatly changed farmers’ life.

Before, farming in America was often a lonely way of living for a long time. Farmers had to deal with their own problems, instead of getting help from others. They learned to try new ways, and thought of their own ideas instead of following old ways.

22、Every day I pass by a homeless old man on the street. He usually sits near where I go to school. Whenever I pass by, he says “hello” in a cheerful manner, and I always say it back. I give him any extra（多余的）change I have.

The old man always wears an old watch. It is not an expensive watch by any means, but it serves its purpose. One day I noticed he wasn’t wearing it any more. I asked him why and he looked down and told me that the battery（电池）had died so he threw it away. I knew he couldn’t buy a new battery and he had no enough money to buy a new watch.

He stayed on my mind all day, and I knew what I had to do. I went out to a shop and bought him a watch. It was not an expensive one, but one that was very similar to the one he had.

When I saw him the next day, he was smiling and cheerful as ever. When I bent down to put some change in his cup, I also dropped the watch in. I didn’t say anything about it. I just smiled at him and kept on walking. He didn’t even notice it until I left. I looked back and watched as he pulled the watch from the cup. He looked to me and I just smiled and nodded.

25、根据下面短文内容，在短文的空格处填上一个恰当的词，使短文完整、通顺。

A person has two ears but only one mouth. That means we should listen, not just speak. The word “listen” has the same letters as the word “silent(沉默)”. 【1】  silently is a good quality(品质) that we should have. Then why is it important to be a good listener?

When someone is under too much 【2】  from his work or study, he may show his poor feelings. It’s easy for him to get upset or angry. At this moment, we need to listen quietly first 【3】 he gets calm(冷静的). Then we may have a good talk with him. Maybe it is a good way to help him 【4】.

Sometimes, we may think our parents are always talking too much. But in fact, they do so because they are worried about our health or just expect to help us if we have difficulty 【5】  our study. If we listen carefully and patiently, our parents will feel we care about them. A loving silence is often more powerful than words.

Sometimes, we just want others to listen to us but forget to listen to others. If so, don’t be 【6】  when others get unhappy suddenly( 突然). That’s because you are not polite(礼貌) and you may not realize it. In order to show our respect( 尊重)for others, we’d better listen to them first. Then we can tell them 【7】  we are thinking.

Easier said than done. Every head is a world. So we should learn to listen with our ears, eyes and hearts as much as we can, and try to 【8】 ourselves good listeners from now on.
