21、 When my son. Mark, was in the third grade, he saved all his pocket money for over three months to buy holiday presents The third Saturday in December Mark said he had made his list (清单)and had twenty dollars in his pocket.

22、The story of Hua Mulan is well-known in China. Mulan, a brave young girl, takes her father’s place in the army and fights for her country. Disney turned this story into a cartoon in 1998. And now, they are planning to make it a real action movie. It was reported that in the online script (剧本), the movie would not be mainly about Mulan saving her family, but about how a white European man saves Mulan and wins her heart. Then, lots of people made an online topic called Make Mulan Right. A user named Krystal Lin said that the story of Mulan wasn’t a love story about a girl who needed to be saved, but a story about her saving her father, about family and honor (荣誉).
Others said that it would whitewash Asian culture. The word “whitewash” means Western culture takes the place of other cultures. They give other examples, like the American actress Scarlett Johansson playing the Japanese character Motoko Kusanagi in Ghost in the Shell (《攻壳机动队》).
Facing these words, a man from Disney later told Vanity Fair magazine that the online script was only an initial version (初始版本) and that Mulan would be the main character in the story.
“Although Disney needs to think about American tastes, it has to make sure that the movie isn’t whitewashed”, a critic (评论家) told China Daily.

23、Body language is the quiet, secret and most powerful language of all! It is said that our body movements communicate about 50 percent of what we really mean while words only express 7 percent. So, while your mouth is closed, your body is just saying…
Arms. How you hold your arms shows how open and receptive you are to people you meet. If you keep your arms to the sides of your body or behind your back, this suggests you are not afraid of taking on whatever comes your way. Outgoing people generally use their arms with big movements, while quieter people keep them close to their bodies. If someone upsets you, just cross your arms to show you’re unhappy!
Head. When you want to appear confident, keep your head level. If you are a monitor in class, you can also take on this position when you want your words to be taken seriously. However, to be friendly in listening or speaking, you must move your head a little.
Legs. Your legs tend to move around a lot more than normal when you are nervous or telling lies. If you are at interviews, try to keep them still!
Posture (姿势). A good posture makes you feel better about yourself. If you are feeling down, you normally don’t sit straight, with your shoulders inwards. This makes breathing more difficult, which can make you feel nervous or uncomfortable.
Mouth. When you are thinking, you often purse (皱起) your lips. You might also use this position to hold back an angry comment you don’t wish to show. However, it will probably still be noticed, and people will know you’re not pleased.
Face. When you lie, you might put on a false face. But that expression would crack briefly, allowing displays of true emotions such as happiness, sadness, disgust (厌恶) and fear to come through.
【1】When someone is keeping his arms behind his back, he tries to tell you that _________.
A.he is outgoing
B.he is angry
C.he is not afraid
D.he is cool
【2】Which of the following movements tells someone is nervous?
A.Moving around a lot more than normal.
B.Not sitting straight with the shoulders inwards.
C.Having the lips pursed to hold back an angry comment.
D.Keeping the arms to the sides of the body.
【3】What can we infer from the passage?
A.Different people in different countries must have the same understanding of the same body movement.
B.Body language can express more meanings than words do in communication.
C.We cannot communicate with others without words.
D.It’s not polite to use body language in formal communication.
24、There is no doubt that parents love us the most in the world. They give us 【1】 (生命) and look after us. They help us to be independent people. No matter what difficulties we face, they provide help for us. The way they love us are different and we can feel love is around.
My mother has been a housewife 【2】 (自从) I was born. Nowadays, more and more people 【3】 (期待) mothers to be career(职业) women, and they are considered to be 【4】 (成功的) if they can manage the household chores well at the same time. My mother gave up her 【5】 (梦想). In my eyes, she does the greatest job in the world. She cleans the house and she cooks the food. Every job 【6】 (需要) a lot of patience and only the one with strong will can do it.

Love from parents makes me stronger and will 【10】 (与……战斗) for my future.
