22、One day last summer, watching the boys and girls trying to catch butterflies, I remembered something happened when I was young. When I was a boy of 12 in South Carolina, something happened to me that stopped me forever from wanting to put any wild creature in a cage.

We lived on the edge of a wood, and every evening the mockingbirds(模仿鸟) would come and rest in the trees and sings. 【1】   I decided that I would catch a young bird and keep it in a cage and in that way would have my own private musician.

【2】  At first, the bird flew about the cage, but eventually it settled down in its new home. I felt very pleased with myself and looked forward to some beautiful singing from my tiny musician.

I had left the cage out, and on the second day my new pet’s mother flew to the cage with food in her mouth. The baby bird ate everything she brought to it.  【3】 

Certainly the mother knew better than I about how to feed her baby.

The following morning when I went to see how my bird was doing, I discovered it on the floor of the cage, dead. I was shocked! What had happened! 【4】

Arthur Wayne, the famous ornithologist(鸟学家), happened to be visiting my father at the time. Hearing me crying over the death of my bird, he explained what had occurred. “A mother mockingbird, finding her young in a cage, will sometimes bring it poisonous(有毒的)berries(干果).   【5】   ”

Never since then have I caught any living creature and put it in a cage. All living creatures have a right to live free.

A. I had taken good care of my little bird.

B. I finally succeeded in catching one and put it in a cage.

C. I was pleased to see this.

D. No musician can sing more beautiful than the birds.

E. She thinks it better for her young to die than to live in cage.

24、   Heroes come in all shapes and sizes. Some heroes, like Lucca, are not even human. Lucca is a 12-year-old US Marine Crops (海军陆战队) dog. On April 5, Lucca received an award for her brave military service, during which she lost one of her front legs. Lucca is now retired and lives in California.

Lucca was in London, England, to receive the Dickin Medal from the British charity People’s Dispensary for Sick Animals (PDSA).

Lucca is the first US Marine Crops dog to receive the medal. She and her owner, Gunnery Willingham, traveled to London, England, for the award ceremony. “Lucca is very intelligent and had an amazing drive for work.” Willingham said.

During her six years of active military service in Iraq and Afghanistan, Lucca completed more than 400 missions. She was trained to find hidden weapons and explosive devices. She was so effective on duty that no human troops were killed during any of her patrols.

But Lucca did not escape injury. On March 23, 2012, she was on patrol in Afghanistan’s Helmand province. An explosive device was set off under her. Lucca lost her front left leg right away. She also suffered serious burns on her body.

Lucca is the 66th animals to receive the Dickin Medal since it was introduced in 1943. The award has been given to 30 dogs (including Lucca), 32 World War II messenger pigeons, three horses and one cat.

26、A poor boy once went to a ragged (破旧的) school, where his face was well washed. When he returned home，the neighbors looked at him in surprise.

They said, “That looks like Tom Rogers, and yet it can’t be, for he is so clean.” After a while, his mother looked at him, seeing that his face was so clean. She thought that her own face was dirty, and she washed it at once. The father soon came home from his work, seeing his wife and his son so clean, he thought that his face was dirty, and so he followed their example.

Father, mother and son being clean, the mother began to think that the room looked dirty, so she went down on her knees to scrub (擦洗) the floor clean. A woman lived next door. Seeing so great a change in her neighbors, she thought that her face and her room were very dirty; so she, too, quickly set about cleaning them.

This story shows how two houses and their families were made tidy and comfortable, simply by the example of the clean face of one ragged school boy. Children, as well as grow-up people, should always set a good example. We never know how much good may be done in that way, nor can we tell how much harm results from a bad example.

根据短文内容判断正、误。(正确的涂”A”，错误的涂”B”)

【1】The poor boy got his face washed at home.

【2】The boy’s mother thought her own face was clean, so it didn’t need washing.

【3】The boy’s father thought the room dirty, so he went down on his knees to clean the floor.

【4】Seeing such a great change in her neighbors, the woman neighbor thought that her face and her room were very dirty.

【5】From the passage, we know we should always set a good example for others.

27、The day before yesterday, when Peter’s families were having dinner, Father raised an interesting question, “Was there anything in our past that we feel ashamed（羞愧的） of, guilty about, or regretted? Maybe we can find ways to say sorry, or take some action to right any wrongdoing.” This seemed like a very private matter, but Peter thought about it carefully the whole night.

Peter remembered a small thing from middle school. In his school, there was a worker, Neil Stone, who none of the kids liked. One night, Peter and two of his classmates decided to play a trick on him. They found a can of red paint, and wrote on the school main road in bright red: Neil Stone is a fool! The next day, the whole school saw these words. Within two hours, Neil had Peter and his two classmates in his office. His classmates said that they had done it but Peter lied, denying the truth. No one ever talked about it.

This morning, Peter went back to his middle school. Neil Stone is still working there. “Sorry, Neil. Do you still remember what happened ten years ago? I want you to know that I did it.” “I knew it!’ Neil laughed. They had a good laugh and a lively discussion. Neil’s closing words were: “Peter, I always felt bad for you because your classmates got it off their mind, and I knew you were carrying it around all these years. I want to thank you for visiting me… for your sake.”

Peter knows that no matter how difficult the situation is, it is never too late to clear up the past and make a fresh start.

There’s no place like home

Some people dream of having a home ‘just like the ones in decorating magazines’. That sort of beautifully stylish home may be n【1】, but for a truly special place to live, why not choose a home unlike any other in the neighbourhood? The unique(独一无二的) houses on these pages challenge people to reconsider what a home is s【2】 to look like.

Environmentally friendly homes are getting a lot of a【3】 these days. Earthships, for example, are unusual homes made from materials like mud, straw and reused wood. The designers of earthships combine these natural materials with recycled i【4】, such as bottles, cans and old tyres. These homes show their belief that, when it comes to saving the environment, ‘if you aren’t part of the solution, you’re part of the problem.’

Additionally many of these homes use wind or solar power. They are designed to collect and recycle water, and the people who live in them often add a greenhouse in which to grow food. As a result, if you live in an earthship, your monthly living costs will d【5】 to almost zero. For people who want to try one out, the Phoenix Earthship in the US is available as holiday accommodation(住宿).

Shipping containers are now being reused to make a【6】 type of environmentally friendly home. A number of architects have started changing individual containers into holiday homes. Alternatively they can be combined to make office blocks and blocks of flats, such as those Container City in London, England.

With all of the examples of imaginative homes, it is clear that people no longer need to settle for ordinary living spaces. One thing is sure: people living in homes that look as s【7】 as these never have to give anyone their address. They can just say, ‘Look for the weird house. You will know it when you see it.’

29、   Last summer, Katie Steller pulled off the freeway on her way to work in Minneapolis. She stopped at a traffic light, where a man was sitting with a sign asking for help. She rolled down her window and asked if he wanted a free _______ right now. The man accepted the offer. Then Steller loaded a red chair from her car. The man took a seat and shared his life story while Steller was trimming(修剪) his curly graying hair.

Until now, Steller has given 30 or so such haircuts to people around the city. These clients are all living a poor life, and she is keenly aware of the _______ of her cleanup job. For her, it’s more than a haircut. She wants it to be a gateway not only to show value and respect but also to get to know people. She wants to build relationships. Steller knows that a haircut can _______ a life. And it did happen to her. As a teen, she suffered from a bowel(肠道) disease which was so serious that her hair thinned quickly. She was very upset and afraid to go out. Seeing this, her mother arranged for Steller’s first professional haircut. Sitting down and having somebody look at her and talk to her like a person and not just an illness made her feel cared about and less _______.

After that, Steller knew she wanted to have her own salon so she could help people feel the way she’d felt that day. Not long after finishing cosmetology(美容) school, she _______ to begin what she now calls her Red Chair Project, reaching out to people in need on the streets.

Although she can’t fix their problems, Steller believes she can help them feel less alone for a moment. Steller listens to people’s stories of loss, addiction, and struggle to get back on their feet. The _______ obviously works. When she was cutting a woman’s hair one day, someone drove by and shouted, “You look amazing!” Hearing this, the woman in the chair cried _______, “I’m not invisible! I thought I was invisible. Look, people see me!”

Steller’s simple act of kindness is starting to spread. Just as she says, the way we show up in the world _______, and we have no idea what people are going to do with the kindness that we give them.
