21、On a hot summer day in south Florida, a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old river behind his house. In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he ran out of the back door, leaving behind his shoes and shirt as he went.

He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, a crocodile (鳄鱼) was swimming toward him. His mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two. In great fear, she ran toward the water, shouting to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy became frightened and made a U-turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the crocodile reached him. From the shore, the mother caught her little boy by the arms just as the crocodile bit his legs. That began an unbelievable tug-of-war between the two. The crocodile was much stronger that the mother, but the mother was much too eager (急切的) to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams, ran from his truck, and shot (射击) the crocodile.

After several weeks in hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were badly scarred (留下疤痕) by the attack of the animal. And, on his arms, were deep scratches (抓伤) where his mother’s fingernails dug deep into his skin in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.

A newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy, asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted his legs. And then, proudly, he said to the reporter, “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my Mom wouldn’t let go.”

Never judge another person’s scars, because you don’t know how they were made.

22、Huck is my name, Huckleberry Finn. I live in the town of St. Petersburg in the state of Missouri. It is a small town but it is near a very big river called Mississippi. This is a story of a journey that I made down the river on a raft and the adventures I had on the way.

It all started when my best friend, Tom Sawyer and I found $ 12,000 in a cave. That money made us rich. We got $ 6, 000 each. Judge Thatcher, an important man in St. Petersburg, put it in the bank, and now we get a dollar a day interest (利息).

Then a kind old lady called Widow Douglas invited me to live with her. Because I haven’t got a family or a home. My mother died a long time ago, then my dad, Pap, went away.

I lived on the streets and in the woods.

My life changed after I lived with the widow (寡妇). She gave me a bed to sleep in and bought new clothes for me. She read stories to me and taught me how to eat at a table.

But then her sister Miss Watson arrived. She brought Jim with her. I liked Jim but I didn’t like Miss Watson very much. She often shouted at me.

24、I work as a volunteer for an organization that helps the poor in Haiti. Recently I took my son Brian there for a week, hoping to educate (教育) him.

Before setting out, I told Brian this trip would be tiring and hard. For the first two days, he said almost nothing. Then, on the third day, as we were climbing over high rocky mountains, he turned to me and grinned (咧嘴笑), “Pretty hard.”
