21、Every year, we celebrate many special days—Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and New Year’s Day. In some countries, there is a special day for playing tricks on others. In North America and parts of Europe, this day is known as April Fool’s Day, and is celebrated on April 1.
Many people believe that the French started April Fool’s Day. Centuries ago, New Year’s Day in Europe was on April 1. In 1582, the calendar changed and King Charles Ⅸ of France moved it to January 1st.
Some people did not like this, and chose to keep April 1 as New Year’s Day. Many called these people “April fools” and played jokes and tricks on them. Over time, April 1 became a day to have fun in France. It then spread to England and Scotland, and later, to North America.
On April Fool’s Day, jokes are common. In the United States, for example, a person may move a friend’s clock ahead one hour, or change sugar into salt. In Scotland, April Fool’s Day lasts for two days. The second day is called “Taily Day”—for one’s “tail”. On this day, people might secretly put a sign saying “kick me” on a person’s back or behind. Other countries have their own “Fool’s Day”. In Spain and Mexico, people play tricks on each other on December 28. In India, it happens on March 31. In many countries around the world, April 1 is a day of fun. Jokes bring about a lot of laughter, and many shouts of “April Fool”!
【1】It is said that people first celebrated “Fool’s Day” in ________.
A.the United States

22、阅读理解
One of the problems career people(上班族) have in the morning is dressing for the office when there will be an evening party immediately followed, with no time to return home to change. The easiest solution is to keep a full set of toiletries (洗漱用品) and make-ups stored somewhere at the office. A woman going to an evening party should dress in one of her “basic dresses” in the morning—the kind that can change into a different look with an added scarf or jewelry. In fifteen minutes, when her office day has ended, she can metamorphose(彻底变化) herself into another person with freshly cleaned teeth, combed hair, a new face, a different and dressier(漂亮的) pair of shoes, and some sparkling jewelry. If she must wear a long dress for the party, she should bring it to the office in a protective bag and store it safely until she has to put it on.

23、【语篇来自二十一世纪学生英文报·试题原创】
A job well done
Whirrr. The deafening sound of a power washer echoed in the neighborhood. Earlier, my dad had bought a power washer—and we were finally going to get our deck clean. After years of using a brush, we now had a high-power, high-pressure washer: a little square machine that sprayed out a strong stream of water.
My dad took the first shift, and washed our upper deck. I watched in amazement as the washer simply left clean wood—exactly the color of the paint originally. “Wow, our deck sure got dirty this year,” I thought. However, that was exactly why we were cleaning—so that we could have sparkling floors outside once again. The machine hummed along, and I decided to change before I had to start cleaning. I put on some light clothing, since the sun was high in the sky, and a sunhat to protect my face from a sunburn.
I took charge of the lower deck. I could feel the machine vibrating the whole deck, and I nervously started on a corner. It felt as if the whole deck would fall! But after a few minutes and no large cracking sound, I relaxed and let the loud monotonous buzzing send me into a comfortable pattern. Left, right, left, right. Surprisingly, the paint on the lower deck ended up being completely stripped off! It wasn’t that big of a loss though, since we were going to repaint the deck anyhow. Left, right, left, right. Soon, I had made a large sized “hole” of unpainted deck.
I looked to my left—sigh. There was still a lot left to go.
The sun shined, and I kept going. Buzz, buzz. Left, right, back, and forth. Slowly, I moved from the top to the bottom, from one end of the deck to the other. With the last bit sprayed clean, I jumped for joy! Finally, it was done. I put away the machine, went inside and sat down on the couch, and admired my work. A beautiful deck, nice and sparkling from all my hard work!
【1】The author used ________ to clean their deck.
A.a brush
B.the power washer
C.a mop
D.rags
【2】_________ washed the upper deck.
A.The author

D.The author and his father
【3】What does the underlined word “sunburn” mean?
A.紫外线
B.晒伤
C.阳光
D.日光浴
【4】Did the author cause heavy losses when he washed the lower deck?
A.Yes, he did.
B.No, he didn’t.
C.It doesn’t say.
D.We don’t know.
【5】What does the passage tell?
A.A story of cleaning house.
B.A story of cleaning garden.
C.A story of washing deck.
D.A story of buying a power washer.
24、 When I was a kid, I often played basketball. So I was thin but healthy. When I was about 15, I stopped playing basketball. I also started to drink a lot of drinks high in sugar and eat much more than before. Between 15 and 17, I put on a lot of weight (重量) — about 50 kg.
I didn’t know how big I was until I saw a photo one day. In the photo, I had a fat neck and my stomach was out there. I hated the way I looked. I knew I needed to lose some weight.
I started to drink only water, and eat less and healthier. I ate mainly vegetables and only one piece of meat every day, and stayed away from sugar.
I also started to exercise. Every day, I ran for 30 minutes first, and then I did some push-ups (俯卧撑) for 10 minutes. I also jumped rope for 15 minutes every day.
I kept exercising the whole winter. When March came, many people said to me, “Oh, Dave, you’ve been a different person!”
It was true. I had lost 25 kg in three months. I liked taking photos, and I noticed the difference in my looks.
I loved the three months. It felt good to lose weight, and it felt even better to set a goal (目标) and go for it.

Dear Kate,
It is very exciting that you are coming to our school so soon. Before you arrive, let me introduce to you what our school life is like.
Our school is a good place where we can prepare ourselves well for the future. We have many teachers who are always ready to offer help. Though we pay a lot of attention to how well we do in lessons, getting high scores (分数) is not the only r【1】 to study. The teachers encourage us to try out new ideas and ask questions in class. With their help we have d【2】 all kinds of interests in both Arts and Science. Students can choose to join any school clubs they are interested in. We can choose the s【3】 that we want to study. Last term I chose American Literature, because I wanted to learn about famous American writers. This term I chose m【4】 classes because my father bought me a piano as a birthday present.
By the way, I was elected monitor of my class. Sometimes it can be tiring to be a monitor, because I have to do a lot of work and a【5】 many meetings. However, being a monitor has taught me a lot, such as caring for others and taking responsibilities and so on. When my class was given the title of “Model Class”, I was p【6】 than ever before. So being a monitor an important part in my school life. I’m very pleased with my work.
I love my school and hope that you will have a p【7】 experience here too. I am looking forward to seeing you soon.
Yours
Li Ping
