21、I start every summer with the best of intentions: to attack one big book from the past, a classic that I was supposed to have read when young and ambitious. Often the pairings of books and settings have been purely accidental: Moby Dick on a three-day cross-country train trip; The Magic Mountain in a New England beachside cottage with no locks on the doors, no telephones or televisions in the rooms, and little to do beyond row on the salt pond. Attempting The Man Without Qualities on a return to Hawaii, my native state, however, was less fruitful: I made it through one and a quarter volumes, then decided that I’d got the point and went swimming instead.

But this summer I find myself at a loss. I’m not quite interested in Balzac, say, or Tristram Shandy. There’s always War and Peace, which I’ve covered some distance several times, only to get bogged down in the “War” part, set it aside for a while, and realize that I have to start over from the beginning again, having forgotten everyone’s name and social rank. How appealing to simply fall back on a favorite — once more into The Waves or Justine, which feels almost like cheating, too exciting and too much fun to properly belong in serious literature.

And then there’s Stendhal’s The Red and the Black, which happens to be the name of my favorite cocktail of the summer, created by Micheal Cecconi at Savoy and Back Forty. It is easy to drink and knocking back three or four seems like such a delightful idea. Cecconi’s theory: “I take whatever’s fresh at the green market and turn it into liquid.” The result is a pure shot of afternoon in the park, making one feel cheerful and peaceful all at once, lying on uncut grass with eyes shut, sun beating through the lids…

22、   Being responsible is universally agreed to be one of the keys to success.【1】Instead, it takes a long time for kids to develop this difficult yet beautiful habit. So, how should parents teach their kids to be responsible for their duties?

Start early. If you haven’t taught your kids responsibility, you can’t suddenly scold them for acting irresponsibly. Begin teaching responsibility when your kid is very young.【2】.

Guide your children. It is important for a parent to understand kids’ skill level and give them tasks suitable for the skill level. 【3】First, show your kids where the watering pot is kept and then show how the plants are watered. Also, explain why plants need regular watering. Even your toddlers (蹒跚学步的小孩) can help out as long as you guide them carefully.

Talk about responsibility. 【4】Children who hear this word from an early age also quickly understand the meaning of responsibility. When you give your kids tasks, be sure to tell them that it is their “responsibility” to complete the tasks.

【5】The best way your kids will learn to act responsibly is by observing you and other family members. Show your responsibility by acting in a responsible manner at all times in front of your children. By observing your actions, your kids will slowly learn to be responsible.

23、I was 16 when my father finally decided he would send me to a wilderness camp for several months. He had threatened to do it many times before, but my mother had always managed to prevent him from doing so. This time he insisted on doing it.

The latest incident was the last straw. Impulsively （(冲动地)）, I had pushed Mr. Ford, my math teacher, down a flight of steps at school. He broke his arm in two places. Anyway, he had agreed not to accuse me as a favor to my dad, who was in the middle of a tight race for sheriff （警长） in our town. But my reckless behavior had my dad's closest advisor talking.

“John, he's your son and he's a kid, but he is dragging you down,” I heard Jake Hutch tell my dad through his closed office door the night after I pushed Mr. Ford. “If you can't make your son obey the rules, how can you make the law obeyed in this town?”

So, off to Pisgah National Forest I went. I imagined hours of untold abuse at the hands of some strong sergeants （军士）. I was determined not to be broken. I was who I was.

Nearly every day for six months, a small group of other troubled teens and I carried our 30-pound backpacks on a difficult journey covering about 10 miles. We hiked in a rough wilderness that seemed untouched by civilization.

Our sergeants were firm but kind, not frightening as I had imagined. We learned how to make a fire without matches and create a shelter with branches and grass. We learned which plants were safe to eat out in the wild. I felt myself change. I was calm and often reflective. My old, impulsive self was gone.

One morning, six months later, my dad came to pick me up. I ran to hug him and saw happiness and love in his eyes.

“So what's it like being sheriff?” I asked on the ride home.

“I lost the race, Danny,” he said.

“I'm sorry, Dad.” I knew my behavior probably had a lot to do with the defeat.

Dad squeezed my shoulder and brought me close. “As long as I don't ever lose you, I'm okay.”

24、   Life as a student can be very exciting and rewarding, but it can also be a huge challenge. You find yourself dealing with family life, social life and your studies at the same time —you may even have to add work into the mix if you are trying to earn some cash as a student. All of this can make it difficult to keep on top of your studies.

The good news is that there are lots of tools for students to use these days, and one of these is live streaming (直播). Over the past couple of decades, technology has come a long way and has helped to improve our lives in many ways. When it comes to learning, live streaming can make a big difference and can really help with your educational goals.

One of the ways in which you can use streaming technology is to access online classes and tutoring, which proves invaluable to many students. You can attend classes from the comfort of your own home or on your smart devices if you are elsewhere. This means that even if you cannot get to in-person classes due to illness, being away or other reasons, you can still keep up with your studies. This is also a perfect solution for those who arc struggling with some subjects and need a helping hand. You can benefit from extra fees by using these live streaming classes and tutoring, which means you can get up to speed with your weaker subjects.

Another thing you can do with online streaming is to stream relevant documentaries that may help with your education depending on the subjects you are studying. Online streaming sites such as Netflix are packed with documentaries, and you can stream these with ease straight to your computer or smart devices. In years gone by, students had to rely on textbooks for information, but the students of today can benefit hugely from streamed documentaries and programming that can help with their education.

【1】What is the function of the first paragraph?

A.To summarize the whole text.

B.To arouse the reader's concern.
