21、The English language has a lot of words which can be used in many different ways and in many different experiences.

One such example is the word matter. In fact, matter can mean just about anything. It could be one of the most useful words in the English language.

Let’s get to the heart of the matter ---- a matter of principle(原则).

If someone says that you owe(欠) him $50, but you don’t, a friend might say, “Well, you could pay him the $50. It’s not that much money. Then you won’t have to hear him say it anymore.” But if you do not owe him the money, do not pay him the money. It’s a matter of principle.

There is another way to use the word matter. But be careful with your choices of words.

If you ask someone, “What’s the matter?”, it shows you are worried about the other person. But saying, “What’s the matter with you?” has a completely different meaning. And it usually sounds rude. In fact, when you say, “What’s the matter with you?”, you are suggesting that the person did something wrong or stupid.

Another expression that could sound rude is to say, “It doesn’t matter to me.” Here, it depends on the context, and how you say it.

Let’s say you tell someone that a friend just got a big raise at work. That person answers with, “It doesn’t matter to me.” Here, it means he or she does not care. And it sounds rude.

But saying, “Oh, you pick where we eat dinner. It doesn’t matter to me.” does not sound rude. In the situation, “it doesn’t matter” shows you are easy-going.

No matter how you look at it and what you say, matter is a very useful word. And it’s only a matter of time before you will become an expert on the use of matter.

【1】We can infer from the text that the word matter __________.

A．has a wide use

22、Bruce Lee not only made kungfu popular among Westerners but he continues to inspire millions of people worldwide 47 years after his death.

“There were not many Asian role models in the media then, let alone an Asian person admired so much by non-Asians,” Steve Aoki, a music producer and musician, said during the preview show of a new documentary about Bruce Lee on ESPN on Sunday night.

The documentary Be Water, which was released as part of ESPN’s 30 for 30 series on Sunday, is named after one of Lee’s philosophies (人生哲学) that are essential to his outlook on life and martial arts. “Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend. Always be yourself; express yourself; have faith in yourself. That’s what I always learn when I look around.”

NBA Hall of Famer Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said in a TV program on Friday that training with Lee played a key role in the durability (耐久力) and longevity that allowed him to become the NBA’s all-time leading scorer. “Bruce always emphasized the effectiveness of stretching,” he said. “So before we worked out, we stretched all the time. I even took that to another level by studying yoga and that really was the best practice in the off season.”

Critics call the documentary a “must-watch” for fans of the late movie star, writer, cultural icon and martial artist who developed Jeet Kune Do (截拳道). Some consider him as a civil rights fighter in the 1960s in the United States. Eric Francisco of Inverse. com, wrote: “In his brief lifetime, Bruce Lee never walked alongside Martin Luther King Jr. or Malcolm X. But as an Asian-American, he used his art of unarmed combat and his philosophy to influence many races and cultures. Lee was a civil rights figure in his own terms. He’s a true star with ever-lasting influence.”

Then Mrs. Harris said to her husband, “We’ve been to a lot of other people’s houses, and now we must invite them to our house, mustn’t we?”

“Yes, certainly,” answered her husband, “A big party will be the easiest thing, won’t it? Then we can start to invite people to dinner in small numbers next month.”

So Mrs. Harris said, “Yes, I’ll invite all our friends here to a big party on 5th December.”

“How many will that be?” Mr. Harris asked. “Don’t invite too many.”

Mrs. Harris was beginning to write the invitations when her husband saw that she was writing, “Party: 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.”

“That isn’t very nice, is it?” he said. “You’re telling our guests that they must go at 8:30.” So Mrs. Harris just wrote “Party: 6:30 p.m.”

A lot of guests came, and they all had a good time, so they did not go home at 8:30. In fact they were still there at mid-night when the door bell rang and a policeman arrived. He said, “You must stop making a noise, because someone has complained(抱怨).”

Mr. Harris said he did not want to quarrel with the policeman, so everyone went home. They were sorry to have to go.

24、When we are little we do all kinds of foolish things,sometimes unwillingly and sometimes premeditated(有预谋的). And parents’ next behaviour is to punish us and make sure that we won’t repeat that nonsense(愚蠢的行为)again.

Therefore,at an early age parents punish their children as follows:firstly,they don’t allow children to watch TV for a couple of days;secondly,parents don’t permit their children to go out and play with their friends;thirdly,children are given different tasks to do—they have to write something several times or they have to stay in the corner of the room,until parents decide to“free”them.

Moreover,when in their adolescence(青春期),children can receive other types of punishment. Most parents punish children by not giving them pocket money,which is the best form of punishment for them. Then,they forbid children to go out on weekends or return home after a certain hour. Not to forget the fact that parents also refuse to give them food,which means that children have to prepare meals alone as they have no other choice.

Sometimes,these forms of punishment have positive results and children won’t repeat the bad things they have done. Anyway,if a child is used to doing nonsenses then all his or her parents’ punishments will be of no importance to him or her. He or she will carry out the punishment and after a short period of time will commit another one.

【1】Which of the punishments doesn’t belong to an early age child?
