21、It was a nice winter day. After dinner, Ms. Lee checked(查看) her e-mails as usual. One e-mail caught her eye. It was from Mary, a girl who sat at the back of the classroom. She answered questions a lot in class.

Ms. Lee,

I love you and your classes. They are always interesting and full of surprises. Wish you a good holiday! Well, Steve, Ella and I want to improve our English during the holidays. We’ve no idea what to do. Any good advice?

Mary

Stopping here, Ms. Lee began to think carefully. “Steve spends lots of time remembering words, but always forgets most of them quickly! Ella didn’t do well in the final exam. She has to go over her lessons a lot. Mary will go to a writing competition. She needs to read more and improve her writing in a short time.”

Just then, her phone rang. It was a message from her best friend, an English teacher in another middle school. Her friend suggested a trip to Hong Kong. Ms. Lee told her she was available, but she didn’t feel like going because she still had no idea how to help her students. Her friend laughed and soon sent her a picture with a QR code (二维码) in it. “It’s all you want,” her friend said. Ms. Lee scanned (扫描) the code and found it was an English homework project (项目) for the coming winter holidays from English Weekly. As she read it, there appeared a big smile on her face.

22、   Many people say dolphins are intelligent. They seem to be able to think, understand and learn things quickly. But are they as smart as humans, or are they more like cats and dogs? Dolphins use their brains quite differently from the way humans do. But scientists say dolphins and humans are very similar in some ways. How?

Like humans, every dolphin has its own “name”. The name is a special whistle(哨声). Each dolphin chooses a specific(特有的) whistle for itself, usually by its first birthday. Dolphins are like people in other ways, too. They “talk” to each other about a lot of things—such as their age, their feelings, and finding food. They also use a system of sounds and body language to communicate. Understanding dolphin conversation is not easy for humans. No one “speaks dolphin” yet, but some scientists are trying to learn.

Dolphins are also social animals. They live in groups called pods, and they often join others from different pods to play games and have fun—just like people. Scientists believe playing together is something only intelligent animals do.

Dolphins and humans are similar in another way: both species make plans for getting things they want. In the seas of southern Brazil, for example, dolphins use an intelligent plan to get food. When there are fish near a boat, dolphins signal(发信号) to the fishermen to put their nets in the water. Using this method, the men can catch a lot of fish. Why do dolphins help the men? There is an advantage for them: they get to eat some of the fish that escape(逃脱) from the net.

【1】What is a dolphin's “name”？

A.It is a kind of game.

B.It is a body sign.

C.It is a dolphin's age.

D.It is a specific sound.

【2】Scientists believe ________ is something only intelligent animals do.

A.singing songs B.playing together C.finding food D.making decisions

【3】What can we infer from the passage?

A.Some scientists can understand dolphins' system of sounds.

B.Dolphins probably help fishermen by using their body language.

C.Humans join dolphins' groups to get things we want.

D.Dolphins can talk to humans about their age and their feelings.

【4】What's the main idea of the passage?

A.Dolphins can communicate with each other at birth.

B.Dolphins are social animals because they play together.

C.Dolphins are smart and are like humans in some ways.

D.Dolphins help humans do many things like catching fish.

23、A few weeks ago, a friend from an unknown Smile Groups sent me $120 to do good things with. Since then I have used the money in the U.K. and U.S. It has helped families and strangers, and generally raised a lot of smiles. They have warmed my heart, but none so much as the gift I was able to give just an hour ago.

I was in a charity shop, looking at the second-hand books. It happened that the bookshelves were next to the toy shelf. I noticed a group of poorly dressed women standing behind me. As they looked through the clothes shelf, a little girl about three years old came over to the toy shelf. Immediately her attention was caught by a toy pram(手推车). She spoke to her mother and her mother asked the shop assistant how much it cost.  $3 was the answer.

The mum looked down at her child, perhaps thinking what she still had to buy and how much money she would have left. Then she shook her head. The child didn’t behave(表现)as badly as some might. Being told “no” was not new for her but she couldn’t keep the disappointment(失望)from her face.

I had a total of  $5 in my pocket. I touched the mother on the shoulder, put the money in her hand and said, “Buy her a doll too. ”

I didn’t wait to see the end. After all, it was not about being thanked. I walked out of the shop and into the sunshine.

The money the friend gave me was to help me find happiness of the world. Was there any better way, I wondered, to get so much happiness for so little money than to buy a little girl a toy pram and a doll to sit in it?

【1】Where did the story take place?

【2】According to the passage, the writer used the money given by his friend   .

A. to thank his friend for his help B. to do some shopping

C. to donate to a charity organization D. to make a donation in happiness

【3】When her mum refused to buy her the toy, the girl didn’t behave badly   .

A. because she didn’t want to behave badly in public

B. because she knew her mother didn’t have enough money

C. because she was afraid her mother would be angry

D. because she had got used to being refused

【4】The reason why the writer didn’t wait to see the end was that   .

A. he had no money then B. he had already finished his task

C. he was afraid the woman might thank him very much D. he was in a hurry

24、“USA? Britain? Which country is better to study in?”

We often hear such discussions. As important, Without, thousands, hot, nearer, why, much, away, Nothing, yearChina opens its door, studying abroad has become a dream for many Chinese students. They would like to know the world well.

It’s true that studying abroad can help students develop themselves. Their foreign language skills will be improved and it may be easier to find jobs.

But there are problems that should be considered. Language is the first. Students must spend a lot of time learning another language and getting used to a different culture.

Students must also learn to live without parents’ care and deal with all kinds of things they haven’t had to do before, like looking after themselves. There are reports about Chinese students abroad running into an ocean of difficulties and giving up finally. When they have to take care of themselves, it is hard for students to study well.

Finally, studying abroad brings a heavy burden（负担）to the family. For most Chinese parents, the cost of studying abroad is very high. But is it worth it?

We know that there are many famous people who have achieved success through their hard work in China.

Liu Xiang is a good example. Once an American teacher invited him there, but he refused.

He kept training hard with his Chinese teacher. He surprised the world when he won a gold medal at the Athens Olympic Games. So when you wonder which country is better to study in, think again.

25、As we all know, Nanjing will h 【1】 the 2nd Youth Olympic Games, which is held every four years in s【2】 and lasts about 12 days. It is a great honour (荣誉) for all the Chinese. The t 【3】 of the Youth Olympic Games is "Green Youth Olympic Games, Dynamic (充满活力的) Youth Olympic Games, and Cultural Youth Olympic Games."

Green Youth Olympic Games calls on people to P【4】 the environment so that we can breathe the f 【5】 air and show the people c【6】 from other countries beautiful scenery (风景) and give them a good impression (印象).

Dynamic Youth Olympic Games. As a matter of fact, it calls the fair (公平) competition. Although all the players are the college s 【7】 , this activity calls on all the citizens to be in it.

Cultural Youth Olympic Games. More and more people p【8】 great attention to the sports meeting. At the same time, there will be a lot of c【9】 activities.

As a student in Nanjing, I should learn English well so that I can be a v 【10】 in

the Youth Olympic Games.
