21、   You want to know about my staying in America, right? Well, to tell you the truth, it is really an eye-opening experience to study here.

In China, I had English classes five times a week since fifth grade. However, I didn’t know how different textbook English could be from everyday English until I came to Hotchkiss School, Connecticut.

When I first studied English, I was told to say, “ I am fine” when people say “How are you?” But in the US, I found that people say, “I am good” or “I’m tired”.

One day, someone greeted me with “What’s up?” It made me confused . I thought for a moment and then smiled because I didn’t know what to say.

Since then, I have discovered more and more differences between Chinese and US cultures.

To my surprise, US girls spend a lot of time in the burning sun to get a tan(晒黑). However, in China, girls try every possible way to get their skin paler, or “whiter”.

I was also surprised by how hardworking US students are.

In China, schoolwork is almost everything, so we study hard and that’s it. But here, a “good” student gets good grades, does a lot of for the public and plays sports or music.

The kids here are so talented, I am starting to be sorry that I gave up playing the piano at an early age and that I have never thought about sports.

【1】According to the writer, textbook English is ________ everyday English.

A. quite different from B. the same as C. more difficult than D. easier than

【2】What does the word “confused” in the fourth paragraph mean in Chinese ?

A. 困惑 B. 憧憬 C. 悲痛 D. 后悔

【3】A good US student spends his / her time __________ .

A. only in doing homework B. only on sports or music

C. only in working for the public D. on studies, sports or music and public work

【4】Which of the following is NOT true ?

A. The writer is now in US. B. American girls love to have white skin.

C. US students are talented and hard working. D. The writer regrets(后悔) that he gave up playing the piano.

【5】Which is the best title for the passage ?

A. My Own Travel in the US B. My Studying in the US

C. My Opinion about the US D. My Friends in the US

22、Many people might think that if they had more money, then they would be happier in life. For example, people might look at what others have, like expensive clothes or nice cars, and wish they could have the same. But the things that money can buy cannot bring happiness to a person for a long time.

But is that really true? Studies have found that money can, in fact, make people happier. But it’s not having money that brings happiness. Instead (相反地), it’s giving money to others that makes people happy. It could be buying a gift for a friend or a family member. It could be buying a homeless person food to eat. It could be giving money to a person in need. Just think about the last time you used your own money to do something for someone else. How did you feel? Whether it is a small or large amount of money, people feel happier when they give. This is because making someone else happy makes the giver happy, too.

This idea of connecting (关联) your happiness to the happiness of others is called ‘ubuntu’ in an African language. There is even a story about a man visiting Africa. He asked some children to race to a nearby tree. The first child to touch the tree would get sweets. Surprisingly, all the children held hands and ran together. They all touched the tree at the same time. The man asked why they did this. The children simply said they could only enjoy eating the treat if everyone had one.

【1】What does the writer say about buying things?

A．Buying things can make people worried.

B．Buying things can make people scared.

C．Buying things may bring sadness for long.

D．Buying things may bring happiness for a short time.

【2】Why does the writer quote (引用) a story in Paragraph 3?

A．To explain (解释) Africans like sweets.

B．To show examples are not enough.

C．To make the writer’s idea clearer.

D．To tell that happiness is from children.

【3】What does the underlined word “they” refer to (指代) in the last paragraph?

A．The trees.

B．The sweets.

C．The children.

D．The others.

【4】What does the writer try to tell us?

A．Buying new things can make people happy.

B．The key to happiness is to make others happy.

C．If you want to be happy, you can visit Africa.

D．People who have a lot of money might not be happy.

24、   Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland was w 【1】by Lewis Carroll. It tells us a wonderful story which happens in Alice’s dream. Here’s the brief i【2】of the story.

One afternoon, Alice has nothing to do, and feels b【3】 while sitting with her elder sister, who is reading a picture book by the river.
