There is really no way you will manage to know the strangers better unless you both go beyond your hobbies. 【3】.

Try not to download things from strangers. 【5】, but be careful that you don’t get viruses or hacked by such downloads.

22、Here is some good news for those hating summer heat-July is National Ice Cream Month! 【1】 The order urges citizens to observe the entire month or at least on the third Sunday of July with appropriate ceremonies and activities. This, of course, means eating as much ice cream as possible. Here are some fun ice cream facts.

The first record of milk-based ice cream, made using heated milk, and flour, came from China’s Tang dynasty. However, the Arabs are regarded as inventing the modern type, using milk and sugar in the 9th century. By the 10th century, a delicious frozen treat using milk, cream, rosewater, dried fruits, and nuts was extremely popular in Baghdad, Damascus, and Cairo. Europeans discovered the icy treat in the 16th century.【2】 The dessert was first mentioned in 1744, when Maryland Governor Thomas Bladen served strawberry ice cream to guests. However, due to the lack of refrigerators, it was not until 1851 that ice cream finally became available to the public.

【3】 An estimated $6 billion is spent annually on the treat, and the numbers are even higher if restaurant sales are included. Though California produces the most ice cream, the biggest fans, on a per capita(人均的)basis, live in Washington, DC, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin.

Most people think their ice cream choice is a function of their taste preference.【4】 Vanilla(香草)ice cream fans are risk-takers who are great at relationships. Strawberry ice cream enthusiasts are devoted. Coffee fans are likely to be serious and perfectionists.【5】

A．Chocolate fans must be generous and charming．

B．But it didn’t go to America until the 18th century．

C．People all over the world celebrate the special day．

D．Everyone, especially children, loved eating ice cream

E．Americans are now one of the world’s largest ice cream consumers．

【2】 But if someone wants to do it in movies or TV shows or in any other commercial activities, he needs to pay the Warner Music Group for the right.【3】

【4】 According to an August 4 The New York Times story, a class action lawsuit has been filed by a group of independent artists.Lawyers in the case said they had found evidence in the pages of a nearly century­old songbook that proves the song’s copyright — first issued in 1935 — is no longer valid.

A federal judge may rule on the case in the coming weeks, reported The New York Times.

If the song becomes part of the public domain (范围), then the Warner Music Group will lose millions of dollars in licensing fees in the future.【5】 These people think it is unfair that Happy Birthday to You has long since survived anyone involved in its creation, but is still owned by a corporation than charges for its use.

24、阅读下面的短文，并根据短文内容回答所提问题。

The Double Ninth Festival is a special day for older people in China. It started long ago. The festival is on lunar September 9th. On this day, people show love and respect to their grandparents.

There are many ways in which Chinese people express their respect. When an older person enters a room, everyone stands. People are introduced from the oldest to the youngest. When we present a book to an older person, two hands are used. Young people always offer their seats to older people on a crowded subway or bus.

Respecting older people is a tradition in China. That’s because the Chinese know that older people have knowledge and experience that young people can learn. Chinese people are proud of being old.

In Western countries, however, older people seldom think they are old. They are called “seniors” instead of “old people”. They’d rather do everything themselves. Even after retirement (退休) they take up hobbies, part-time jobs and new activities to keep their bodies working well.

Westerners respect their older people, too. Usually, seniors don’t have to buy tickets for trains and buses. They are given discounts (打折) in stores and restaurants.

But Western seniors don’t often live with their children—they live alone. For holidays, the family usually gather at the grandparents’ home, and a great smile and a warm hug for their parents are enough for grown children to show their respect.

26、阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

Parents everywhere praise their kids. Jenn Berman, author of The A to Z Guide to Raising Happy and Confident Kids, says, “We’ve gone to the opposite extreme of a few decades ago when parents tended to be more strict.” By giving kids a lot of praise, parents think they’re building their children’s confidence, when, in fact, it may be just the opposite. Too much praise can backfire and, when given in a way that’s insincere, make kids afraid to try new things or take a risk for fear of not being able to stay on top where their parents’ praise has put them.

Still, don’t go too far in the other direction. Not giving enough praise can be just as damaging as giving too much. Kids will feel like they’re not good enough or that you don’t care and, as a result, may see no point in trying hard for their accomplishments.

So what is the right amount of praise? Experts say that the quality of praise is more important than the quantity. If praise is sincere and focused on the effort not the outcome, you can give it as often as your child does something that deserves a verbal reward. “We should especially recognize our children’s efforts to push themselves and work hard to achieve a goal,” says Donahue, author of Parenting Without Fear: Letting Go of Worry and Focusing on What Really Matters. “One thing to remember is that it’s the process not the end product that matters.”

Your son may not be the best basketball player on his team. But if he’s out there every day and playing hard, you should praise his effort regardless of whether his team wins or loses. Praising the effort and not the outcome can also mean recognizing your child when she has worked hard to clean the yard, cook dinner, or finish a book report. But whatever it is, praise should be given on a case-by-case basis and be proportionate(相称的) to the amount of effort your child has put into it.
