One day,some boys put some money into Micheal's bag and one of them pretended(假装) to have lost his money. Of course, they found the money in Micheal's bag at last.
Michael felt it shameful, but he could not say anything about it. Soon his classmates called him a thief and laughed at him at school.His teachers also believed he stole the money and called his parents to the school. Just then, James stood out and helped Michael make everything clear.
From that day on, Michael and James became good friends. James often took Michael to take part in activities and Michael became active. Michael often helped James with his math. Then Michael got more friends, and he even became the monitor in his class.

22、Every country has its heroes.The heroes are the people the nation and especially the young people admire. If you get a list of the heroes of a nation, it will tell you the potential(潜力) of that nation.
Today in America, if you ask the high school students to list their heroes, their choices would probably fall into three groups. The first group of heroes would be the rock stars—the people connected with rock music. There is no doubt that such people do have talent(才能). But one wonders if one should treat rock stars as a model. The rock stars too often are mixed with drugs and their personal life is not all that good. The rock stars are rich and wear the latest fashion styles. However, one should seek more in a hero than such things as money and good clothes.
A second type of hero for the American youth is the sports star. Again you have a person who has a great ability in one area—sports. However, too often the personal life of the sports star is a bit of disorder. Too frequently drugs and drinking are a part of life of the sports star.
A third type of hero is the TV or movie star. This person may have lots of acting talent and is quite handsome. However, the personal life of too many actors is quite sad and they should not be held up as a model of young people. Today, the rock star, the athlete and the actor all have become the models of the youth in America. Really, do you hear a young person say that his hero is a doctor, a teacher or a scientist? These people are not rich and do not wear fashionable clothes. However, they are talented people who work hard to make the world a better place for everyone.
What is really sad is that the young try to imitate(模仿) their heroes. They like to wear the same clothes and follow their styles. If the heroes of today for the American young people are limited only to rock stars, athletes and actors, the future does not look too bright.
【1】The last sentence of the first paragraph implies that ________.

24、 Qomolangma which translates to “Goddess Mother of the World” is the Tibetan name for Mount Everest.
Hundreds of climbers have died trying to reach the summit(山顶) or getting back down from the world’s highest peak. And the 2019 climbing season which ended up in May was the deadliest one in four years. There were 11 deaths on the mountain this spring. In addition to difficult weather, inexperienced climbers, inexperienced companies that brought them in and overcrowding on the mountain were all widely blamed for the deaths. In fact, some climbers criticized Nepal for allowing anyone who paid $11,000 to get a climbing permit.
Nepal is among the poorest countries in the world and tourism is a major industry there. After this year though, an expert group was set up to discuss the deaths on the mountain. It was made up of government officials, expert climbers and climbing agencies and it just recently gave its list of recommendations. Among them are requiring the climbers themselves to have training and experience at high altitudes. They wouldn’t be able to get an Everest permit before that. They also have to send in a certificate that says they’re in good health and good shape and they have to bring a trained Nepali guide with them.
The experts also suggest raising the fee to climb Qomolangma to $35,000. There would be additional rules concerning the tour companies that offer trips to the summit. And a Nepalese tourism official who was interviewed by the Reuters News Agency says the government will make the new rules the law of the land.
