24、Much has been said and written recently about heroes, mainly because many people think we have too few of them. There are many different kinds of heroes, but they all seem to have two things in common. First, heroes, by their actions, show the great possibilities of human nature. Second, heroes can also stand the test of time, and their achievements will not be easily forgotten. Because of these good points, we need to choose our heroes carefully.

Olympic sports star Jackie Joyner-Kersee, who is believed to be a hero, warns young people to be careful of making athletes heroes. She hopes that if someone tries to copy her, it will be because she has achieved her goals by working hard. Joyner-Kersee says that a hero should be someone who has an influence on another person’s life.

Poet Maya Angelou believes that a hero encourages people to treat others well and to be concerned about the greater good. A hero should show politeness, courage, patience, and strength all the time. A hero should encourage others to follow him with actions that improve the world, even if only in small ways.

Author Daniel Boorstin suggests that, “Celebrities are people who make news, but heroes are people who make history.” Thus, if a person is truly worthy to be called a hero, he or she will not be soon forgotten.

We all need heroes. We need to be able to respect people who have been there, done that, and succeeded. Many times the greatest heroes are the people we deal with every day — relatives（亲戚）, friends, and neighbors — who will keep going when it is easier to give up. The parent who puts her or his family ahead of herself or himself, the teacher who will make more money at another job but chooses to help others — all these people can be considered as heroes. A hero quietly and continuously sets a good example, an example that inspires others to follow.

A. will work hard   B. will become heroes

27、There are many rules for us Chinese to follow to be better people and live better. “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you”，which is from The Analects of Confucius (《论语》), is worth our lifetime to practice.

Chang Sheng,a Chinese teacher, explains the rule to us. It means that if you don’t want others to do something to you, then don’t do it to them. Put simply, avoid doing something to people that even you can’t tolerate (忍受). It encourages us to put ourselves in others’ place, which will help us get along better. Confucius asked his students to follow and practice this rule their whole lives.

This rule works well from ancient to modern times. It can be used in daily life. For example, if you don’t want others to talk about you behind your back, then don’t talk about others behind theirs. Another example is how to get along in group work. If you are a leader who is responsible for the tasks, you should consider, each member’s feelings and advantages to make the best decision instead of being bossy.

China has been practicing this rule in all fields. President Xi Jinping used it many times in his speeches. He said China would respect other countries in cultural exchanges and always pursue peace.

C．to tolerate everything in life

D．to talk about others behind them

28、When I was a junior high school student in 1980, life gave me a gift — it was happiness.

One weekend, I went to visit my grandparents in the countryside. On my way home a car ran over me and cut off my arms because of its high speed.

Several days later when I woke up at the hospital, I realized I had to spend the rest of my life 【1】________(without)arms. How sad I felt at that time! Even I was full of fears. But 【2】________ (slow) I knew I had to face the fact and get over it. I 【3】________ (can) get my arms back even though I cried every day.

However, it’s【4】_______ (easy) said than done. It took me nearly half a year to get out of the 【5】 ________ (sad) completely. I got so much from my past story. From then on, I could treat my life with【6】 ________ normal mind. But in our daily life, I often see my classmates get【7】________ (worry) about little things: they get a bad grade on the test; their bus comes late; they don’t have a mobile phone but others have, and so on. But I only enjoy my life. I was lucky to realize from an accident: it’s a waste of our life to focus on what you have lost. We should always think of 【8】 ________ we have. So why are so many people unhappy? Someone may say, “My whole life would improve if I had a new car. But when you get the car, what happens? 【9】 ________ a whole week you are walking on air. Then you go right back to being unhappy.

Happiness 【10】_______ (depend) on what we have! It’s in our heart. It’s a state of mind: even though you own the whole world, you may still feel unhappy. Happiness comes from mastering the art of appreciating (感激) and taking pleasure in what you really have.

That morning, however, after two hours of walking in the field, we ________ needed ten baskets of sweet corns to pick. I was completely sad and ________. Dropping the empty basket heavily, I cried, “If the supermarket wants its last ten baskets, they can come to pick them on their own!” Dad ________, “Just think, my little girl, only five baskets left for each of us and then we are done.” Such is Dad. Whatever problem he ________, he never gives up. Though we didn’t have a god harvest, Dad remained optimistic(乐观的).
